The Coon-Sanders Nighthawks: `The Band That Made Radio Famous`

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionCarleton A. Coon, Sr., and Joe L. Sanders formed the Coon-Sanders Orchestra in 1919 in Kansas City, Missouri. Three years later, under the name `Nighthawks,` the band, began broadcasting experimental, highly-popular midnight radio programs over Kansas City?s WDAF. Their music was played all over the world, and the band remained one of America?s top bands until Coon?s death in 1932. Here is the complete history of the Coon-Sanders Orchestra, the band whose gay, saucy, and bustling music, and carefree and extravagant musicians symbolized the era between World War I and the Great Depression. This work covers it all, from the two leaders and their very different personalities, and the various band members, to their association with Jules Cesar Stein (who set the band on a five-week tour that made enough money for Stein to found the Music Corporation of America, or MCA), to their adventures playing on the East Coast and Midwest and west to Denver and… [detailed...]

The Cooperative Nature of the Firm

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book is an analysis of the modern economy`s two major resource allocation mechanisms. The price mechanism has been subject to extensive examination by neoclassical economists, but there has been relatively little attention paid to the impact of theorganization of firms on allocation. Professor Ichiishi presents a distinctive theory of the firm that views firms as organizations characterized by diversity of interest among their members. The author derives a number of original results, thereby contributing to the theory of the firm, cooperative game theory, and general equilibrium analysis theory. [detailed...]

Mark Irving Lichbach
The Cooperator`s Dilemma (Economics, Cognition, and Society)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In The Cooperator`s Dilemma , Mark Lichbach provides an up-to-date and complete evaluation of the collective-action approach. A special strength of the work is that it integrates in a unique way both game theoretic and micro- economics approaches to the collective-action problem. Prisoner`s Dilemma and public goods issues are thus discussed with a common collective-action framework. Another distinctive feature is the author`s development and application of a unique typology of solutions to thecollective-action solutions he labels: market, community, contract and hierarchy. In the comprehensive review of collective-action theories, two criteria are employed to evaluate them. First, the logical completeness of every collective- action solution is considered. Lichbach argues that each type of solution presupposes the existence of at least one other type of solution. Trying to solve the problems of social order and collective- action thus leads one in a vicious… [detailed...]

Michael Frayn
The Copenhagen Papers: An Intrigue

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description One day, during the British run of Copenhagen , winner of the Tony Award for best play in 1999, Frayn was presented with a curious package from a London housewife that contained a few faded pages of barely legible German. Thesepages, apparently found concealed beneath some floorboards, seemed to cast a remarkable new light on the mystery at the heart of the play. While Frayn began to lose all sense of certainty, actor David Burke, who played Niels Bohr in the London productionand had some experience with documents of this sort, followed the action with particularly close interest. After the riddle was cracked and the fog had cleared, Frayn and Burke sat down together to ponder the winding trail of the Copenhagen papers. By turns comic and profound, The Copenhagen Papers explores the conundrum at the heart of all Michael Frayn’s work--human fallibility and the eternal difficulty of knowing why we do what we do.

Frank Salomon
The Cord Keepers: Khipus And Cultural Life In A Peruvian Village (Latin America Otherwise)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: None of the world`s `lost writings` has proven more perplexing than the mysterious code in which the Inka Empire kept its records. Ancient Andean peoples encoded knowledge in knotted cords of cotton or wool called khipus. In The Cord Keepers, the distinguished anthropologist Frank Salomon breaks new ground with a close ethnography of one Andean village where villagers have surprisingly conserved a set of these enigmatic cords to the present day. Their `quipocamayos,` as they call them, form a sacred patrimony. Keying his reading to the internal life of the ancient kin groups that own the khipus, Salomon suggests that the multicolored cords, with their knots and lavishly woven ornaments, may not have mimicked speech as most systems of writing do, but may instead have been anchored in non-verbal codes. The Cord Keepers makes a compelling argument for a close intrinsic link between rituals and visual sign-systems. It indicates that while Andean graphic representation may differ radically… [detailed...]

There is an abundance of satisfying cornbreads, as Crescent discovered when she followed the cornbread trail from the Appalachians to the Rockies to the Green Mountains.

The Corporate Culture Survival Guide

Description: Culture. We blithely use the term for just about anything--a vibrant culture, a dominant culture, a corporate culture. But do we really know what we`re saying, what culture really means? Or do we most often assume that the term is just a convenient way to group those with a common purpose or goal and a method for achieving it? Isn`t a corporate culture, for example, just `the way we do things around here`? No, it`s not. In The Corporate Culture Survival Guide , Edgar Schein reveals how that`s merely the tip of the iceberg, an iceberg that managers ignore at the peril of their company`s future. Underneath lies the much-harder-to-grasp `essence` of the company, the `learned, shared, tacit assumptions on which people base their daily behavior.` These assumptions are learned over time and in different internal and external environments, becoming, as Schein puts it, the `residue of success.` As these assumptions influence all aspects of how a company functions,… [detailed...]
