Gifford Pinchot

Volle TerminpUine und die Uberflutung mit Informationen machen es oft nicht leicht, Zeit und MuBe zum Bticherlesen zu tinden. MANAGEMENT HEUTE bietet daher eine Auswahl hervorragender Managementliteratur zu aktuellen und wichtigen Fragen - eine Kostpro- be, die vielleicht dazu anregt, sich mit bestimmten Themen intensiver zu beschaftigen. Dieses Lesebuch umfaBt 21 Beitrage aus Veroffentlichungen des Be- triebswirtschaftlichen Verlags Dr. Th. Gabler. Es gibt einen kompakten Uberblick tiber die vielfaItigen Facetten des Managens und liefert konkre- tes Management-Know-how. Schon die Auswahl aus dem eigenen Verlagsprogramm war eine Her- ausforderung: GABLER ist auf der ganzen Breite der Wirtschaftsfachlite- ratur verlegerisch aktiv - yom Schulbuch bis zum wissenschaftlichen Forschungsbeitrag. Praxisrelevante Management-Themen machen nur einen Tell des Spektrums aus. Und davon konnten wir wiederum nur ei- nen kleinen Ausschnitt bier berlicksichtigen. Viele hervorragende Autoren sind nicht in dieses Buch aufgenommen worden. Das muB so sein - ein Lesebuch verlangt Auswahl, fordert Schwerpunktsetzung und manch schmerzhaften Schnitt. Es will beispielhaft Akzente setzen und baut dabei auch auf das Verstandnis derjenigen Autoren, deren Werke oft noch feiner auf Spezialthemen eingehen und deshalb in diesem Zusammenhang nicht mehr darstellbar waren. So muBten wir auch in den hier ausgewahlten Beitragen an manchen Stellen geringfiigige Anderungen gegentiber den Originalwerken vomeh- men, urn den Sinn-Zusammenhang zu erhalten. MANAGEMENT HEUTE - das wird fUr GABLER eine Herausforde- rung bleiben. Wir wollen dieses Lesebuch regelmaBig. herausgeben und ktinftig auch Ausschnitte geeigneter Werke aus anderen Verlagen tiber- nehmen.

The Training of a Forester By Gifford Pinchot

The catching of fish, said the Sage of Chocoloskee, is but an incident in fishing. He told the frozen truth. To be out in the open where fish are; to watch them at their great business of living; to see them in the water or out of the water; to fish for them, and even to hook them and have them get away-all this is wonderfully worthwhile-wonderfully better worthwhile than merely to catch and keep the stiffening fading body of one of the most beautiful forms of life. Gifford Pinchot, twice governor of Pennsylvania and America's premier fisherman presents twenty-three personal experiences in story form. From the mountain streams of Pennsylvania to the scented isles of the South Seas, the author weaves a magic web of angling enchantment. Just Fishing Talk is ideal armchair entertainment for every man or woman who loves the outdoors. If you are one of those who revel in the tang of salt spray or the fragrance of mountain pin and fern--if you can think of no thrill greater than the swift surge of a hooked fish--you will treasure this book.

The founding chief of the U.S. Forest Service and twice governor of Pennsylvania, Gifford Pinchot was central to the early twentieth-century conservation movement in the United States and the political history and evolution of the Keystone State. This collection of Pinchot’s essays, articles, and letters reveals a gifted public figure whose work and thoughts on the environment, politics, society, and science remain startlingly relevant today.A learned man and admirably accessible writer, Pinchot showed keen insight on issues as wide-ranging as the rights of women and minorities, war, education, Prohibition, agricultural policy, land use, and the craft of politics. He developed galvanizing arguments against the unregulated exploitation of natural resources, made a clear case for thinking globally but acting locally, railed at the pernicious impact of corporate power on democratic life, and firmly believed that governments were obligated to enhance public health, increase economic opportunity, and sustain the land. Pinchot’s policy accomplishments—including the first clean-water legislation in Pennsylvania and the nation—speak to his effectiveness as a communicator and a politician. His observations on environmental issues were exceptionally prescient, as they anticipated the dilemmas currently confronting those who shape environmental public policy.Introduced and annotated by environmental historian Char Miller, this is the only comprehensive collection of Pinchot’s writings. Those interested in the history of conservation, the Gilded Age and Progressive Era, American politics, and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will find this book invaluable.
