Richard Gilman
The Drama is Coming Now

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description This engrossing book presents the first collection in more than three decades of one of America’s finest drama critics. Richard Gilman chronicles a major period in American theater history, one that witnessed the birth or spread of Off-Broadway, regional theater, nonprofit companies, and avant-garde performance, as well as growing interest in plays by women and minorities and in world drama. His writing, however, is more than a revealing look at an era. It is criticism for the ages. Insightful, provocative, and impassioned, the articles represent the full range of Gilman’s interests. There are essays, profiles, and book reviews dealing with such topics as the “new naturalism” in theater, Brecht’s collected plays, and the legacy of Stanislavski. There is also a generous sampling of Gilman’s comments on plays by O’Neill, Miller, Chekhov, Albee, Ibsen, Anouilh, Beckett, Ionesco, Pinter, Fugard, and many others. … [detailed...]

Patricia Pitcher
The Drama of Leadership

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: As a member of the board of directors of several major international financial services corporations, Patricia Pitcher was in a privileged position to observe the inner workings of the corporate world. What she witnessed was a crisis of leadership rootedin a misunderstanding of what leading is all about. Not content to simply offer an opinion—opinions come cheap—she embarked on an eight-year research project to document the reasons for the rapid collapse of a global giant. That collapse, sheshows us, began with one critical succession error and was compounded by a chronic failure to understand the importance of personality in the leadership equation. One wrong person at the helm turned a dream into a nightmare. In The Drama of Leadership, Patricia Pitcher shares her findings and, in the process, explodes a number of popular myths about leadership, including the one that leadership and vision are qualities that can be taught in management seminars. She refutes the… [detailed...]

The Dream Life: Movies, Media, and the Mythology of the Sixties

Publisher: —
Description: Book Description A brilliant cultural history detailing the fascinating relationship between movies and American society in the 1960s. In what the New York Times `s A.O. Scott called a `suave, scholarly tour de force,` J. Hoberman delivers a brilliant and witty look at the decade when politics and pop culture became one. This was the era of the Missile Gap and the Space Race, the Black and Sexual Revolutions, the Vietnam War and Watergate?as well as the tele-saturation of the American market and the advent of Pop art. In `elegant, epigrammatic prose,` as Scott put it, Hoberman moves from the political histories of movies to the theater of wars, national political campaigns, and pop culture events. With entertaining reinterpretations of key Hollywood movies (such as Bonnie and Clyde, The Wild Bunch , and Shampoo ), and meditations on personages from Che Guevara, John Wayne, and Patty Hearst to Jane Fonda, Ronald Reagan, and Dirty Harry, Hoberman… [detailed...]

The Dream Machine: J.C.R. Licklider and the Revolution That Made Computing Personal

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: While most people may not be familiar with the name J. C. R. Licklider, he was the guiding spirit behind the greatest revolution of the modern era. At a time when most computers were big, ponderous mainframes, he envisioned them as desktop tools that could empower individuals, foster creativity, and allow the sharing of information all over the world. Working from an obscure office in the depths of the Pentagon, he set in motion the forces that could make his vision real. Writing with the same novelistic flair that made his Complexity `the most exciting intellectual adventure story of the year` ( The Washington Post ), Waldrop presents the history of this great enterprise and the first full-scale portrait of the man whose dream of a `human-computersymbiosis` changed the course of science and culture, gave us the modern world of computing, and laid the foundation for the Internet age. `Waldrop`s account of [Licklider`s] and many others` world-transforming contributions… [detailed...]

The Dream Weavers: Strategy-Focused Leadership in Technology-Driven Organizations

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe main question that guided the thinking behind this book can be stated as follows: `What kind of leadership behavior must executives of technology-driven organizations display to spur performance excellence?` To address this question the authors conducted videotaped interviews of executives from 65 organizations? including General Electric, Qualcomm, The Vanguard Group, and Barclays Global Investors ? to identify common behaviors and traits that lead to organizational success. In addition to the interviews, they surveyed the executives? followers to evaluate the leadership and organizational culture to examine successful executive leadership from multiple reference points. The authors found that displaying outstanding executive leadership doesn`t necessarily require a commanding presence, a genius-level IQ, expertise, or even a strong command and control system. At the heart of outstanding strategic leadership was an ability to envision a strategy for… [detailed...]

Thomas Berry
The Dream of the Earth

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This landmark work, first published by Sierra Club Books in 1988, has established itself as a foundational volume in the ecological canon. In it, noted cultural historian Thomas Berry provides nothing less than a new intellectual-ethical framework for the human community by positing planetary well-being as the measure of all human activity. Drawing on the wisdom of Western philosophy, Asian thought, and Native American traditions, as well as contemporary physics and evolutionary biology, Berry offers a new perspective that recasts our understanding of science, technology, politics, religion, ecology, and education. He shows us why it is important for us to respond to the Earth`s need for planetary renewal, and what we must do to break free of the `technological trance` that drives a misguided dream of progress. Only then, he suggests, can we foster mutually enhancing human-Earth relationships that can heal our traumatized global biosystem. [detailed...]
