Crossroads : Tales of the Southern Literary Fantastic

2004 y.
Publisher: Tor Books
Description: The Crossroads in the title of this unique anthology refers to the intersection between southern letters and the literature of the fantastic, encompassing sf as well as fantasy. All the contributors hail from the South and constitute a diverse medley of veterans, rising stars, and relative newcomers. Sf grandmaster Gene Wolfe contributes a grisly tale of Texas voodoo in `Houston, 1943,` in which a child becomes trapped in his own nightmare. `My Life Is Good` by renowned sf editor Scott Edelman, puts a physicist in the awkward position of traveling back in time to prevent singer Randy Newman (a New Orleans native) from becoming president. In `Rose,` perhaps the volume`s most striking entry, best-selling mainstream author Bret Lott adds another grim detail to the life of Emily Grierson, the groom-slaying heroine of Faulkner`s classic `A Rose for Emily.` Twenty-six entertaining tales in all, from the darkly disturbing to the bitingly satirical,… [detailed...]

Crow`s Range: An Environmental History Of The Sierra Nevada

2004 y.

Description: Book DescriptionJohn Muir called it the `Range of Light, the most divinely beautiful of all the mountain chains I?ve ever seen.` The Sierra Nevada?a single unbroken mountain range stretching north to south over four hundred miles, best understood as a single ecosystem but embracing a number of environmental communities?has been the site of human activity for millennia. From the efforts of ancient Native Americans to stimulate populations of game animals by burning brush to create meadows, to the present-day burgeoning resort and residential developments, the Sierra has endured, and often suffered from, the efforts of humans to exploit its bountiful resources for their own benefit. Historian David Beesley examines the history of the Sierra Nevada from earliest times, beginning with a comprehensive discussion of the geologic development of the range and its various ecological communities. Using a wide range of sources, including the records of explorers and early… [detailed...]

Crowd of Sounds

2003 y.

Description: Book DescriptionOnce in a long while a lyric poet comes along whose technique, emotional pitch, and intellect combines in sublime balance and takes poetry to a new level. Witness Adam Sol. His work is exhilarating in its range. He is gentle and mournful,attuned to his surroundings, then suddenly mounts a sneak attack and hits us with erotic joy, threat, history, elegy, comic absurdity, and acts of disturbing ventriloquism, somehow stitching it all together with a tightly scored thematic coherence. For once our eyes are not our first concern, Sol writes, and in poem after poem, as he conducts, he awakens our listening. These poems are about music but they are also about the silence it breaks, and the inevitable recurrence of that silence. [detailed...]

Crowdsourcing: Why the Power of the Crowd Is Driving the Future of Business

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: “The amount of knowledge and talent dispersed among the human race has always outstripped our capacity to harness it. Crowdsourcing ­corrects that—but in doing so, it also unleashes the forces of creative destruction.” —From CrowdsourcingFirst identified by journalist Jeff Howe in a June 2006 Wired article, “crowdsourcing” describes the process by which the power of the many can be leveraged to accomplish feats that were once the province of the specialized few. Howe reveals that the crowd is more than wise—it’s talented, creative, and stunningly productive. Crowdsourcing activates the transformative power of today’s technology, liberating the latent potential within us all. It’s a perfect meritocracy, where age, gender, race, education, and job history no longer matter, the quality of work is all that counts, and every field is open to people of every imaginable background. If you can perform the service, design the product, or solve the problem, you’ve got the job.But crowdsourcing… [detailed...]

Crucial Needs, Weak Incentives: Social Sector Reform, Democratization, and Globalization in Latin America

2004 y.
Publisher: Woodrow Wilson Center Press, The Johns Hopkins University Press
Description: `Crucial Needs, Weak Incentives` studies the politics of 1990s efforts to reform education and health services in Latin America. Both sectors were common targets of reform - education because of its economic importance, health care because of needs to reduce great inequities and opportunities to increase domestic savings presented by reforms. The two sectors also have large numbers of unionized public employees, whose presence affects not only patronage but also political power. The book presents case studies of Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Brazil. Costa Rica, and Peru for health care and Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Brazil, Nicaragua, and Venezuela for education. The case studies offer a wealth of new information not previously accessible to the English-speaking academic and policy community. Four chapters by the editors set out for each sector the goals, structure, and outcomes of reform efforts. Формат: 15 см x 22,5 см. [detailed...]
