The Watson Dynasty : The Fiery Reign and Troubled Legacy of IBM`s Founding Father and Son

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description For an extraordinary fifty-seven-year period, one of the nation`s largest and fastest-growing companies was run by two men who were flesh and blood. The chief executives of the International Business Machines Corporation from 1914 until 1971 were Thomas J. Watson and Thomas J. Watson, father and son. That great corporation bears the imprint of both men -- their ambitions and their strengths -- but it also bears the consequences of a family that was in near-constant conflict. Sometimes wrong but never in doubt, both Watsons had clear -- and farsighted -- visions of what their company could become. They also had volcanic tempers. Their fights with each other combined with their commitment to leadership and excellence made IBM one of the most rewarding, yet gut-clutching firms to work for in the history of American business. We are accustomed to describing professional behavior as if men and women leave their emotions and vulnerabilities at home each day…. [detailed...]

The Wave focuses on the process of unfolding, on discovering the truth of who we are, our connection to all that is, and the endless discoveries of what it is to be divine consciousness in a human form. Each of us has our own unique process of dissolving the illusion inherent in this relative reality in which we live and embracing the absolute reality that is the truth of all existence. We experience some commonality in this adventure. Exploring both our commonality and honoring our individual uniqueness may be useful to each of us. [detailed...]

Publisher: CRW Publishing Limited
Description: Стильно оформленное подарочное издание в суперобложке, с трехсторонним золотым обрезом и шелковым ляссе. The Waves traces the lives and interactions of seven friends in an exploratory and sensuous narrative. The Waves was conceived and written during a highly political phase in Woolfs career, when she was speaking on issues of gender and of class. This was also the period when her love affair with Vita Sackville-West was at its most intense. The work is often described as if it were the product of a secluded, disembodied sensibility. Yet its writing is supremely engaged and engaging, providing an experience which the reader is unlikely to forget. Формат: 10 см x 15,5 см. [detailed...]

Virginia Woolf
The Waves

2000 y.
Publisher: Wordsworth Classics
Description: `I am writing to a rhythm and not to a plot`, Virginia Woolf stated of her eighth novel, `The Waves`. Widely regarded as one of her greatest and most original works, it conveys the rhythms of life in synchrony with the cycle of nature and the passage of time. Six children - Bernard, Susan, Rhoda, Neville, Jinny and Louis - meet in a garden close to the sea, their voices sounding over the constant echo of the waves that roll back and forth from the shore. The subsequent continuity of these six main characters, as they develop from childhood to maturity and follow different passions and ambitions, is interspersed with interludes from the timeless and unifying chorus of nature. In pure stream-of-consciousness style, Woolf presents a cross-section of multiple yet parallel lives, each marked by the disintegrating force of a mutual tragedy. `The Waves` is her searching exploration of individual and collective identity, and the observations and emotions of life, from the simplicity… [detailed...]

Few legislators can match his accomplishments or his insights on how good work gets done in Washington.In this book, Waxman affords readers a rare glimpse into how this is achieved-the strategy, the maneuvering, the behind-the-scenes deals.

The Way Hollywood Tells It: Story and Style in Modern Movies

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Hollywood moviemaking is one of the constants of American life, but how much has it changed since the glory days of the big studios? David Bordwell argues that the principles of visual storytelling created in the studio era are alive and well, even in today`s bloated blockbusters. American filmmakers have created a durable tradition--one that we should not be ashamed to call artistic, and one that survives in both mainstream entertainment and niche-marketed indie cinema. Bordwell traces the continuity of this tradition in a wide array of films made since 1960, from romantic comedies like Jerry Maguire and Love Actually to more imposing efforts like A Beautiful Mind . He also draws upon testimony from writers, directors, and editors who are acutely conscious of employing proven principles of plot and visual style. Within the limits of the `classical` approach, innovation can flourish. Bordwell examines how imaginative filmmakers have pushed the premises of the… [detailed...]

Description: Fiercely intelligent, relentlessly provocative, and prodigiously gifted, Eminem is known as much for his enigmatic persona as for being the fastest-selling rap artist and the first rapper to ever win an Oscar. Now, in `The Way I Am`, he shares his private thoughts on everything from his inner struggles, to the trials of being famous, to his love for his daughter, Hailie, creating a book that is every bit as raw and uncensored as the man himself.

Providing his millions of fans with a personal tour of Eminem`s creative process, it is poised to be hailed in much the same way as Tupac`s `The Rose that Grew from Concrete`, Bob Dylan`s `Chronicles`, and `Journals` by Kurt Cobain.

Everything had changed but looked the same.This is the story of how it happened to and for me. I?ve been asked a lot of questions over the years, seen movies, and read books.

Walter Lord
The Way It Was: Walter Lord on His Life and Books

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In 1926, Walter Lord, nine years old, persuaded his mother to cross the Atlantic aboard the Olympic. The choice was no accident, the Olympic was sister ship to the Titanic and already the doomed White Star liner sailed in and out of young Lord`s imagination. The following year, he wrote and illustrated an account of how the Titanic sank in the early morning hours of April 14, 1912 with the loss of more than 1,500 lives. Classmates at the Gilman School in Baltimore and later at Princeton and at Yale Law School, as well as colleagues in the Office of Strategic Services during the war, and even associates in his post-war jobs in journalism and advertising remember Lord`s fascination with the disaster. In retrospect it seems inevitable that the Titanic would be the subject of his foray into book-writing. In July 1954, while a copywriter at J. Walter Thompson, he proposed the book to his friend Howard Cady who was an editor at Henry Holt Publishers. A Night to Remember was an immediate… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: Lavishly illustrated, The Way It Wasn`t offers an intimate firsthand encounter with 20th-century Modernism, from the extraordinary man who defined it for America. James Laughlin?poet, ladies` man, heir to a steel fortune, and the founder of New Directions?was still at work on his autobiography when he died at 83. He left behind personal files crammed with memories and memorabilia: in `M` he is taking Marianne Moore to Yankee games (outings captured here in charming snapshots) to discuss `arcane mammals,` and in `N` nearly plunging off a mountain, hunting butterflies with Nabokov (`Volya was a doll in a very severe upper-crust Russian way`). With an accent on humor, The Way It Wasn`t is a scrapbook loaded with ephemera?letters and memories, clippings and photographs. This richly illustrated album glitters like a magpie`s nest, if a magpie could have known Tennessee Williams, W.C. Williams, Merton, Miller, Stein, and Pound. In `C`: `I… [detailed...]

The Way Of The Wiseguy

2005 y.
Publisher: Running Press Book Publishers
Description: The romanticized view of the mob gets a reality check in this fascinating guide to the real Cosa Nostra from Pistone, who successfully infiltrated one of New York City`s five families as an FBI undercover agent in the late 1970s and early 1980s. During his six years posing as Donnie Brasco, Pistone managed to gain the trust of countless mobsters and was almost formally made a member of the Mafia. That access led to numerous investigations and prosecutions resulting in more than 100 convictions, including those of the bosses who formed the mob`s ruling body, the Commission. Pistone`s first book, the bestselling Donnie Brasco (later filmed with Johnny Depp in the lead role), presented a detailed chronological narrative of his infiltration. This time, he has organized his experiences into short chapters describing what the gangsters he worked with were really like, with titles such as `A Typical Day in the Life of a Wiseguy` and `How Wiseguys Take over a Business.` He makes abundantly… [detailed...]

The Way We Are Now: Gay And Lesbian Lives in the 21st Century

Publisher: —
Description: In this new era - post Section 28 and post the new Civil Partnership Act - how much has in fact changed for gay men and lesbians? A number of successful lesbians and gay men, drawn from a variety of walks of life, have been invited to write about how it is for them - how they live now. In achieving their professional and personal ambitions, how has being gay made a difference, positively and negatively? How much residual homophobia and how much resistance to the exercise of their human rights and full dignity as human beings have they encountered? Are there walks of life in which being gay is advantage? Is there a kind of `gay mafia`, a freemasonry in which people can advance their ambitions by plugging into a network? If the 20th Century was the century in which women were finally recognised as full human beings with rights to equal opportunities, perhaps the 21st Century will be the one in which the same happens for gay people. The contributors include Alan Hollinghurst,… [detailed...]
