The Disposable Visionary

A Survival Guide for Change Agents

By: Curtis Powell,Bill . Jerome

Is it possible for visionary leaders to adhere to their idealism and integrity without becoming casualties of corporate conservatism and executive-level politics? This book says "yes," arguing for the need for visionary change agents in organizations and resolving the paradox of visionary change in a bureaucratic environment. Why do many companies state they want change but then often fire employees who truly rock the boat in their efforts to shift the paradigm to make improvements? How should "disposable visionaries"—leaders who are passionate about new ideas, but who underestimate or intentionally ignore the political environment that supports maintaining the status quo and consequently are in danger of losing their jobs—keep their passion regardless of the opposition... and also keep their jobs? Written with wit and filled with poignant insights and well-documented examples, this book provides practical advice and encouragement to those who are driven to promote new ideas and reach new levels of achievement. Not just for executive-level corporate leaders frustrated by their company's resistance to change, the information and inspiration presented will be enlightening to anyone who has ever been puzzled or annoyed by obstructive internal politics at work. Readers will come away with effective ways to deal with politics, champion breakthrough innovation, be recognized as their organization's most valuable asset, and unlock their potential to change the competitive playing field. The book will also be invaluable for business students who need to be aware of potential obstacles they will likely face as they embark on their careers.

Children in Prison

Six Profiles Before, During and After Incarceration

By: Jerome Gold

Almost 330,000 children in America are in prison, in a detention center, on probation or parole, or otherwise under the control of the criminal justice system. In a time of nascent prison reform, these children are often left out of the conversation. This book chronicles the experiences of six young people in Ash Meadow in Washington State. Written from the perspective of a prison rehabilitation counselor, this book provides a firsthand account of these children's lives during and after their stay. These accounts show how domestic violence, inequality and poor adult-modeling influence the decisions that children make later in life.

Miserere Nobis

Have Mercy On Us

By: Claude Pierre-Jerome

The content of this book is about human trafficking, immigration, survival and romance. This book could be easily entitled The good foreigners. But no, it would be too simple, too trivial he says instead he chooses to name it Miserere Nobis, the Latin translation for Have Mercy On Us. The title says it all. With this book, the author pays tribute to all who have the privilege to learn what it takes to be a good foreigner. It is so nice to know that we are all foreigners on earth. Smile and enjoy the book!

Dating and the Older Man

Dating and the Older Man

By: Jerome Albers

The book is baded on my real life experiences as an older man in the Dating game for over 15 years. After years in the dating game I experienced many events, situations, and types of women. I look at these experiences honestly and humorously. The statuses of women that an older man has available for dating are reviewed. Also what a single man needs to do to attract desirable women and where and how to go to meet desirable women are discussed, because we all know where to meet undesirable women. The pleasures and pitfalls of dating, romance, and sex are discussed. It does not show how to solve all dating problems, but most of the dating problems to avoid are discussed. It seems that both men and women hate dating and it is our own fault. I encourage men to take control of their life and their dating. The book desribes the characteristics that men desire in women and the characteristics which men find not tolerable in women. It also describes the places to meet women and which are good and which are a waste of time and money. It is an honest, humorous and witty look at this confusing and illogical part of our social life.

The Invention of Autonomy

A History of Modern Moral Philosophy

By: Jerome B. Schneewind

This remarkable book is the most comprehensive study ever written of the history of moral philosophy in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Its aim is to set Kant's still influential ethics in its historical context by showing in detail what the central questions in moral philosophy were for him and how he arrived at his own distinctive ethical views. The book is organised into four main sections, each exploring moral philosophy by discussing the work of many influential philosophers of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In an epilogue the author discusses Kant's view of his own historicity, and of the aims of moral philosophy. In its range, in its analyses of many philosophers not discussed elsewhere, and in revealing the subtle interweaving of religious and political thought with moral philosophy, this is an unprecedented account of the evolution of Kant's ethics.

The Blackbirds

By: Eric Jerome Dickey

New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey, whose characters The Atlantic calls “bold, smart women oozing sexuality and vulnerability” introduces an unbreakable quartet of friends looking for love in this delectable romance. They call themselves the Blackbirds. Kwanzaa Browne, Indigo Abdulrahaman, Destiny Jones, and Ericka Stockwell are four best friends who are closer than sisters and will go to the ends of the earth for one another. Yet even their deep bond can’t heal all wounds from their individual pasts, as the collegiate and post-collegiate women struggle with their own demons, drama, and desires. Trying to forget her cheating ex-fiancé, Kwanzaa becomes entangled with a wicked one-night stand—a man who turns out to be one in five million. Indigo is in an endless on-again, off-again relationship with her footballer boyfriend, and in her time between dysfunctional relationships she pursues other naughty desires. Destiny, readjusting to normal life, struggles to control her own anger after avenging a deep wrong landed her in juvi, while at the same time trying to have her first real relationship—one she has initiated using an alias to hide her past from her lover. Divorced Ericka is in remission from cancer and trying to deal with two decades of animosity with her radical mother while keeping secret the desperate crush she has always had on Destiny’s father...a passion with an older man that just may be reciprocated. As the women try to overcome—or give in to—their impulses, they find not only themselves tested but also the one thing they always considered unbreakable: their friendship.

Pursuit of Ecstasy

The MDMA Experience

By: Jerome Beck,Marsha Rosenbaum

The authors have produced the first "on the ground" study (not just clinical or chemical) of MDMA (3, 4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine), or "ecstasy" as it is frequently designated. A psychoactive substance related to both the amphetamines and mescaline, MDMA has become popular in recent years as one of the new "designer" drugs. First used in therapeutic treatment, its recreational or street use has increased in recent years. The authors track the efforts (with psychiatrists and researchers in opposition) of the DEA to ban the drug.
