Stop the Presses! I Want to Get Off!

A Brief History of the Prisoners’ Digest International

By: Joseph W. Grant

The final book in the groundbreaking Voices from the Underground series, Stop the Presses! I Want to Get Off!, is the inspiring, frenetic, funny, sad, always-cash-starved story of Joe Grant, founder and publisher of Prisoners’ Digest International, the most important prisoners’ rights underground newspaper of the Vietnam era. From Grant’s military days in pre-Revolutionary Cuba during the Korean War, to his time as publisher of a pro-union newspaper in Cedar Rapids and his eventual imprisonment in Leavenworth, Kansas, Grant’s personal history is a testament to the power of courage under duress. One of the more notorious federal penitentiaries in the nation, Leavenworth inspired Grant to found PDI in an effort to bring hope to prisoners and their families nationwide.

Administration Ethics

Executive Decisions in Canadian Healthcare

By: Joseph Byrne

There are few industries in which decisions are so intently scrutinized by millions of Canadians as the healthcare industry. Each day important decisions concerning the funding and delivery of healthcare are made far from the patient’s bed, in the offices of administrators and policy makers. These decisions can have considerable impact on the lives of patients and the practice of healthcare professionals. Whether you are a seasoned executive or an entry-level manager, Administration Ethics is intended to assist you in rendering effective and ethical decisions. Brimming with engaging examples, this text provides a practical guide to understanding the essential but often challenging areas of ethics theories, principles, codes, and rights, and insightfully illustrates how these concepts are integrated. Administration Ethics goes beyond academic debate and enters the daily practice of health administration. It examines the psychology of decision making, revealing how we sometimes make well-intentioned, but unethical decisions. Each chapter includes illustrative cases pertinent to the ethical management and policy decisions required of healthcare administrators. Featuring a new, user-friendly decision model and designed specifically with the Canadian healthcare system in mind, this volume will be an indispensable resource for both current and future healthcare administrators in Canada.

Toward an American Conservatism

Constitutional Conservatism during the Progressive Era

By: Joseph W. Postell,Johnathan O'Neill

During the Progressive Era (1880-1920), leading thinkers and politicians transformed American politics. Historians and political scientists have given a great deal of attention to the progressives who effected this transformation. Yet relatively little is known about the conservatives who opposed these progressive innovations, despite the fact that they played a major role in the debates and outcomes of this period of American history. These early conservatives represent a now-forgotten source of inspiration for modern American conservatism. This volume gives these constitutional conservatives their first full explanation and demonstrates their ongoing relevance to contemporary American conservatism.

The Powers to Lead

The Powers to Lead

By: Joseph Nye Jr.

What qualities make a leader succeed in business or politics? In an era when the information revolution has dramatically changed the playing field, when old organizational hierarchies have given way to fluid networks of contacts, and when mistrust of leaders is on the rise, our ideas about leadership are clearly due for redefinition. With The Powers to Lead, Joseph S. Nye offers a sweeping look at the nature of leadership in today's world, in an illuminating blend of history, business case studies, psychological research, and more. As he observes, many now believe that the more authoritarian and coercive forms of leadership--the hard power approaches of earlier military-industrial eras--have been largely supplanted in postindustrial societies by soft power approaches that seek to attract, inspire, and persuade rather than dictate. Nye argues, however, that the most effective leaders are actually those who combine hard and soft power skills in proportions that vary with different situations. He calls this smart power. Drawing examples from the careers of leaders as disparate as Gandhi, Churchill, Lee Iacocca, and George W. Bush, Nye uses the concept of smart power to shed light on such topics as leadership types and skills, the needs and demands of followers, and the nature of good and bad leadership in terms of both ethics and effectiveness. In one particularly instructive chapter, he looks in depth at contextual intelligence--the ability to understand changing environments, capitalize on trends, and use the flow of events to implement strategies. Thoroughly grounded in the real world, rich in both analysis and anecdote, The Powers to Lead is sure to become a modern classic, a concise and lucid work applicable to every field, from small businesses and nonprofit organizations to nations on the world stage. This paperback edition includes a new preface by the author.

Just Follow Jesus

What Jesus Means When He Calls

By: Billy Joseph Stines

Who were the men called by Jesus? Among the twelve disciples were two sets of brothers – Peter and Andrew, James and John – and a man named Matthew. If we were selecting individuals to follow Jesus, these men would have never been on our list. But Jesus saw something in them we could never see. Peter, Andrew, James, and John made their livelihood fishing in the Sea of Galilee. Matthew collected taxes for the hated Roman empire. Each was an average man just going about his daily business. But Jesus turned their lives upside down by calling to them, saying, “Follow me.” Just as his call changed their lives, it can change your life, too. Billy Joseph Stines, who served almost forty years at six churches scattered around North and South Carolina, explores why you should listen to the call of Jesus. He also urges readers to stop dismissing those parts of the Bible that do not fit their idea of who God is. Instead of seeking peace through compromise, the goal must be to discover the truth – Jesus Christ.
