The God Gene

By: James Barney

Have you completed your DNA heritage test? Yes-Bad idea? No-Good decision? In The God Gene, writer Stuart Thomas has been asked by his editor to write a story about DNA testing. Stuart starts by submitting his DNA to the 6Steps labs in order to discover his ancestry. He discovers much more. 6Steps CEO, Dr. Anthony Shields, has discovered the formula to cause your genes to attack your own body. After identifying your heritage, he studies your genetic haplogroup to see what disease(s) your heritage is most susceptible to. Could you be under attack? Dr. Shields is moving the operation to Hamarsen, a small ghost town in South Dakota. Stuart's friend, Joyce Jantzen, is working at a national park a short distance from Hamarsen and has alerted Stuart that the good doctor has purchased the ghost town. A secret organization, JASS (the Jewish American Security Service), is trying to prevent 6Steps from carrying on an attack on the Jewish people. JASS has encouraged a reluctant Stuart to help them prevent this attack. Can Stuart save the day? Will Yahweh, the Jewish God, work his miracle magic to once again save his people? The God Gene will answer all your questions.

The Professional Edge

Competencies in Public Service

By: James S. Bowman,Jonathan P. West,Margo Berman,Montgomery Van Wart

The new context and character of public service - shifting values, entrepreneurship, information technology, multi-sector careers - require enhanced technical, ethical, and leadership skills. This concise and readable work describes what it means to be a consummate professional public servant. It sets standards for everyone who conducts the public's business and links them with performance management, human resource administration, and information technology skills. The authors identify the ethical foundations of public service and how to integrate them in practice. They also address individual leadership, what it means, and how it is based on a foundation of technical and ethical skills. Filled with original illustrative examples and case studies from government, the non-profit sector, and business, The Professional Edge is an ideal supplement for any introductory course in Public Administration or Ethics in the Public Service.

Nantucket

By: James Everett Grieder,Georgen Charnes

This volume details Nantucket's long history from European settlement in 1659 to whaling culture and Quaker influence to tourist destination. Nantucket, a Wampanoag word meaning far-away island, was first settled by Europeans in 1659. The earliest settlers, known as the Proprietors, envisioned a community of farmers and shepherds, but the island found its fortune as a preeminent whaling port in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. During its time under Quaker influence, Nantucket was a cosmopolitan and dynamic place; radical new ideas, like abolitionism and women's rights, found fertile ground in the Quakers' firm belief in equality. As the entrance to the harbor became impassable, Nantucket lost its whaling focus and experienced a general economic decline. Ironically, this downturn and the resulting absence of new building, along with modern cultural change, became the springboard for its later revival. Nantucket was transformed into a tourist destination, an artist colony, and a summer home to the wealthy and famous, with a rich maritime heritage and a proud tradition of historic preservation.

WADA, the World Anti-Doping Agency

A Multi-Level Legitimacy Analysis

By: Daniel Read,James Skinner,Daniel Lock,Aaron C.T. Smith

Examining the legitimacy of the World Anti-Doping Agency, this book offers a critical analysis of the anti-doping system and the social and behavioural processes that shape policy, asking why the current system is failing. Featuring in-depth, contemporary case studies from around the world, including the whereabouts system; Lance Armstrong; therapeutic use exemptions; the Essendon Bombers; recreational drugs policy; and the Russian Olympic doping programme, this is the first text to analyse empirically how the legitimacy of WADA is constructed, contested and managed in the field of anti-doping, and the consequent impact this has on anti-doping. Based on the analysis of these case studies, the book discusses how legitimacy processes have shaped the current regulatory environment and offers structural and governance reforms to improve anti-doping policy design and implementation. Adopting a unique theoretical perspective, rooted in a socio-cognitive perspective on organisational behaviour, this book is essential reading for any researcher or student working on drugs and doping in sport, sport management, the sociology of sport, governance, transnational organisations or strategic management. It also offers important insights for policymakers and administrators working in sport or in government.
