Bigger Isn't Necessarily Better

Bigger Isn't Necessarily Better

Frederick Abernathy; Kermit Baker; Kent Colton; David Weil

Lexington Books

Despite the growth of huge national home builders and industry consolidation that accompanied it, Bigger Isn’t Necessarily Better shows that most builders did not improve their operational performance during the boom. As a result, the sector had a long way to fall as the economy collapsed about them. Given the importance of housing to the US economy, the book’s lessons are critical to those in homebuilding as well as to policy makers, scholars, and the public.

A Stitch in Time

A Stitch in Time

The textile and fashion industries have forever been at the mercy of rapidly changing styles and fickle customers who want the latest designs while they are still fashionable. The result for these businesses, often forced to forecast sales and deal with suppliers based on volatile demand, is a history of stock shortages, or costly markdowns. But, as the authors disclose in A Stitch in Time, technological advances that began in the 1980s introduced a new concept in retailing--lean retailing. Pioneered by entrepreneurs such as Sam Walton and WAL-MART and made possible by new information technologies for tracking sales data, lean retailing has enabled apparel producers to reorganize the manner in which they related to retail customers, undertook distribution, forecasted and planned production, and managed supplier relations. In an industry that typically suffered from great delays from warehouse to rack, sales data was now captured at the retailer's checkout through bar coding and immediately transmitted back to distributors, manufacturers, designers, and even to the textile mills that weave the cloth. Armed with up-to-the-minute data about colors, sizes, and geographic sales, everyone in the chain was able to reduce cost, increase efficiency, and keep the customer in style like never before. And today, the broad changes introduced in the apparal industry by lean retailing are rippling through a growing segment of the American economy. A richly detailed and resonant account, A Stitch in Time brilliantly captures both the history and the future of the fashion industry as it offers executives a new paradigm for understanding the challenges of retailing and manufacturing in all segments of our rapidly transforming economy.

A beautiful overview of fascinating paintings of the classical world and the Holy Land by a beloved American artist Frederic Church (1826–1900), one of the leading painters of 19th-century America and the Hudson River School, also journeyed around the globe to find fresh inspiration for his highly detailed compositions. Among Church’s lesser-known masterpieces are his paintings of the Middle East, Italy, and Greece, produced in the late 1860s through late 1870s, which explore themes of human history and achievement. Taking a closer look at this geographical and thematic shift in Church’s practice, this handsome book brings together the artist’s major paintings of Athens, Rome, Jerusalem, and the surrounding region. The essays concentrate on a set of six major paintings of architectural and archaeological marvels; one essay also spotlights Olana, Church’s home in New York State, which reflects the influence of Middle Eastern design. This impressive volume stands apart in its new approach to the artist’s work and its quest to determine why and how this quintessentially American figure was drawn to scenery and themes from the other side of the globe.Distributed for the Detroit Institute of ArtsExhibition Schedule:Detroit Institute of Arts (10/22/17–01/15/18)Reynolda House Museum of American Art, Winston-Salem, NC (02/08/18–05/13/18)Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, Hartford, CT (06/03/18–08/26/18)

Frederic William Maitland: Selections from His Writings is a curated collection of the works of one of England’s most distinguished legal historians. This volume offers a comprehensive introduction to Maitland’s contributions to the field of English legal history, focusing on his meticulous approach to understanding medieval law and his ability to analyze historical texts with precision and critical insight. His work, marked by a deep commitment to historical context and an aversion to anachronism, challenges readers to view the past through the lens of its own time rather than projecting modern perspectives onto historical events. The book highlights Maitland’s capacity for making complex legal concepts both accessible and engaging, demonstrating his brilliance as a historian who could breathe life into even the driest of legal matters. The selections in this volume not only showcase Maitland’s scholarly rigor but also reflect his unique ability to connect the details of legal history to broader cultural and institutional contexts. His profound impact on the study of English law is evident in his careful editing of primary sources and his collaborative work with fellow historians, such as Frederick Pollock. Throughout the collection, Maitland’s writing remains a vital resource for students and scholars alike, illustrating his unwavering dedication to uncovering historical truth. His approach to history, emphasizing critical thinking and an appreciation for historical nuance, continues to inspire generations of legal historians and intellectuals. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of English law and its evolution, as well as the methods that define historical scholarship. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1960.
