The Making of the Modern Manager

Mapping Management Competencies from the First to the Fourth Industrial Revolution

By: Paul Turner

Management is a constellation of concepts and ideas. Its many definitions span the boundaries of leadership and strategy on the one hand and business administration on the other; from people management to P&L accounts, to both change and stability, sometimes simultaneously. There are few concepts that have attracted as much business interest as the management of organisations. Presenting a wide, deep and engaged body of research about management, this book explores how management competencies have developed over time and whether these are still relevant to the management of contemporary organizations. The author addresses this question by tracing the evolution of management competencies from the First to the Fourth Industrial revolution, investigating the role and style of managers in each ‘revolution’ and in multiple geographies. Ultimately, this book suggests that that five ‘core management competencies; will be relevant as the Fourth Industrial Revolution gathers momentum.

Fallen Prayer

A Novel

By: Paul Headworth

Fallen Prayer is a murder mystery delving into the world of good versus evil set within the guidelines of Ephesians 6:12: "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." Charlie is a legendary police officer who transfers from the Detroit Police Department to a small sheriff's department in northern Michigan where he meets a young apprentice officer named Paul. While on the trail of the person responsible for killing his wife and son, Charlie finds a renewed sense of spirit and purpose as he establishes a strong Christian bond with Paul and his family. When Charlie is murdered, Paul must deal with his own grief, and find a way to decipher the only two clues left behind. Through scripture and prayer, Paul races against time to find the murderer before the murderer realizes the gift Paul possesses. Along the way Paul finds out how powerful a single prayer from a fallen friend and faithful Christian can change the lives of many. This spine tingling thriller will capture your attention from start to finish weaving a story of suspense, adventure, mystery, and spirituality.

The Knowledge Polity

Teaching and Research in the Social Sciences

By: Paul A. Djupe,Amy Erica Smith,Anand Edward Sokhey

This chapter introduces our holistic view of knowledge production in sociology and political science. Enlarging our view beyond the individualistic publication pipeline metaphor, we press the conception of academics as citizens of a knowledge polity with rights and responsibilities. Knowledge production does not just mean research, but encompasses teaching, reviewing, blogging, commenting, and other activities, which signal its communal nature. We then advance an explanation for knowledge production that situates academics in institutional and social contexts - including the family - while maintaining individual agency. We search for inequalities by gender and racial/ethnic identification, but are careful to consider the changing compositions of political science and sociology (both are diversifying steadily) and different situations (e.g., faculty rank) when making comparisons. The chapter describes our PASS study, which sampled academic departments and surveyed 1,700 faculty in 2017. Respondent reports were linked with data on lifetime publications, Twitter activity and other data"--

Trails of Enchantment

Trails of Enchantment

By: Paul Brandreth

For hunters who love the north woods, the past glory of the wilderness is recorded here. Paulina Brandreth, who wrote under the pseudonym Paul Brandreth, was a woman who hunted and photographed deer in the Adirondacks with noted deer hunters Roy Chapman Andrews, General 'Black Jack' Pershing, and Reuben Cary. She began writing for the acclaimed sportsmen's journal Forest and Stream in 1894 at the age of nine. Her material in the magazine was credited to Camp Good Enough, Brandreth Lake, a major deer camp on land purchased by her grandfather specifically for hunting and fishing. One of only a few women writing about hunting at that time, Brandreth chose to continue to write under a pseudonym, publishing Trails of Enchantment in 1930. She was passionate about still-hunting whitetail bucks, evident in a hunt with her guide and friend Reuben Cary: Side by side, we knelt in the snow, waiting for the buck to appear from behind the intervening trunk of a big birch. The suspense was harrowing. And then at last he loomed suddenly before us....

Mine Water

Hydrology, Pollution, Remediation

By: Paul L. Younger,S.A. Banwart,Robert S. Hedin

Nowhere is the conflict between economic progress and environmental quality more apparent than in the mineral extraction industries. The latter half of the 20th century saw major advances in the reclamation technologies. However, mine water pollution problems have not been addressed. In many cases, polluted mine water long outlives the life of the mining operation. As the true cost of long-term water treatment responsibilities has become apparent, interest has grown in the technologies that would decrease the production of contaminated water and make its treatment less costly. This is the first book to address the mine water issue head-on. The authors explain the complexities of mine water pollution by reviewing the hydrogeological context of its formation, and provide an up-to-date presentation of prevention and treatment technologies. The book will be a valuable reference for all professionals who encounter polluted mine water on a regular or occasional basis.

City Pier

Above and Below

By: Paul Tremblay

Above: City is sprawling, technocratic, corrupt, and built hundreds of feet above a bay, resting upon the giant wooden shoulders of Pier. Below: Pier is a seemingly endless maze of stripped sequoia trees with trunks as thick as buildings, branches molded into a complex lattice of support beams and struts. Above and Below: The people. Weapons dealers and hired heavies with major Daddy-issues; a Pier-deported homeless man and a pistol packing priest trying to survive with each other and their terrible secrets; a librarian haunted by City's violent history, his family, and by Balloons; a flawed and shattered woman who wants to escape City no matter the cost. Their lives are a part of each other. Their lives are a part of City Pier.

Alexander Pushkin

Complete Prose Fiction

By: Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin,Paul Debreczeny,Walter W. Arndt

Alexander Pushkin (1799-1837) is best known for his great achievments in poetry, but the fixtion he wrote in the last decade of his life was to have a tremendous impact on the subsequent development of Russian prose, influencing such later writers as Gogol, Dostoevsky, and Tolstoy. This is a new translation of all his prose fiction, from his famous story "The Queen of Spades" down to unfinished stories and fragments that appear in English for the first time. Pushkin's non-fictional A History of Pugachev, also translated into English for the first time, is included because it furnished the historical background of his novel The Captain's Daughter. The translator has taken care to achieve a balance between faithfulness to the original and readability in English, and several Russian editions have been collated to establish an accurate text. The translations are annotated to place each work in its historical context, and to eluvidate passages not easily understandable to today's reader. Appendixes present a chapter that Pushkin deleted from The Captain's Daughter; fictional fragments; Pushkin's outlines of projected works; and the apocryphal novella The Lonely Cottage on Vasilev Island.
