Brian Mulroney: The Boy from Baie-Comeau

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Murphy, Rae / Chodos, Robert / Auf Der Maur, Nick, PUBLISHER: James Lorimer & Company, Before the GST and before Free Trade, Brian Mulroney was a small-town boy who announced at age nineteen that he would one day be Prime Minister. This is his story. Growing up in the remote company town of Baie-Comeau, Mulroney was immersed in Quebecois culture, in a close-knit community with an enduring social order and spirit of self-help. A hardworking electrician's son, he wanted to be "the guy who makes things happen." Mulroney pursued that goal through a meteoric career as a labour lawyer, an unswerving partisan for the Conservative cause in Quebec, the president of a major corporation. In , equipped with a deep understanding of Quebec, a small-town sense of social compassion, and skill as a negotiator and businessman, he was ready to take on the nation. Informed by interviews with Mulroney, his aides and enemies, "Brian Mulroney: The Boy from Baie Comeau" is a remarkable portrait of the political ascent of one of Canada's most controversial Prime Ministers.

A Window Into Eternity: A Jungian Perspective on Marriage

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hill, Psy D. Robert D. / Hill, Robert D., Psy., PUBLISHER: PublishAmerica, All things in the universe were originally created as pairs of opposites. Life is also created as pairs of opposites, that of male and female. While men and women are physically separate individuals, this is not the case of the inner spiritual being that is revealed as opposites of a single reality. This book explains how to unite the opposites of male and female so this inner spiritual reality can be experienced. Carl Jung gave exact definitions of the human soul and the nature of the inner spiritual reality that has nothing to do with any religious view. Jung defined religion as a numinous experience, or spiritual, and all organized religion as the codification of the original numinous experience. Marriage is a spiritual experience where the uniting of the opposites leads to the very throb of creation itself. The nature and source of life can only be realized through the combination of male and female and never as separate individuals. The uniting of the opposites provides us with A Window Into Eternity.

Can he find his way back to Boston before the authorities realize what happened?

But Jack never thought his mom would take off during the night and leave him at a campground in Acadia National Park, with no way to reach her and barely enough money for food. Any other kid would report his mom gone, but Jack knows by now that he needs to figure things out for himself - starting with how to get from the backwoods of Maine to his home in Boston before DSS catches on. With nothing but a small toy elephant to keep him company, Jack begins the long journey south, a journey that will test his wits and his loyalties - and his trust that he may be part of a larger herd after all.

Pigs at the Trough: Lessons from Australia's Decade of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Schwab, Adam, PUBLISHER: John Wiley & Sons, The past decade has seen a period of unparalleled growth in executive remuneration. But while CEO pay exploded, shareholders looked on helplessly as some of Australia's best-known companies self-destructed. When the fall eventually came, executives were well protected. Shareholders and creditors were not so lucky. From Telstra's enriching of Sol Trujillo to the toppling of Eddy Groves's ABC Learning Centres and the untold accounts of the billions lost by the collapsed Babcock & Brown, Allco Finance Group and MFS, "Pigs at the Trough" tells the story of how a generation of executives, under the supervision of well-known and respected non-executive directors, pushed all the boundaries and sometimes sailed right over them... and got away with it. A pacey, irreverent read but with a devastatingly serious message, "Pigs at the Trough" gives investors invaluable insights into how to spot the telltale signs of impending corporate collapse, and how to avoid being another victim.

The Change Makers: From Carnegie to Gates, How the Great

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Klein, Maury, PUBLISHER: Times Books, From one of America's foremost business historians, a penetrating and engaging look at the qualities that create great entrepreneurs Entrepreneurs, even more than inventors, are essential to American business. While inventors produce ideas, entrepreneurs get things done, build the markets, make ideas reality. But what creative talents do the legendary American entrepreneurs share, and what can you learn from them about business success? Using lively character sketches and company stories, University of Rhode Island professor and author Maury Klein analyzes how innovators from Andrew Carnegie to Bill Gates triumphed over perennial challenges in planning and strategy, production, operations, staffing, and sales-and transformed entire industries. Comparing the retailing acumen of J.C. Penney and Wal-Mart's Sam Walton, the organizational ingenuity of Standard Oil's John D. Rockefeller and Citigroup's Sandy Weill, the imaginative marketing of General Motors' Alfred Sloan and MacDonald's Ray Kroc, Klein reveals the art and archetype of successful entrepreneurialism. Moving beyond the cliches, he describes the artistry of great businessmen who build empires and dreams as well as fortunes.

Sea Sick: The Global Ocean in Crisis

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mitchell, Alanna, PUBLISHER: Emblem Editions, All life -- whether on land or in the sea -- depends on the oceans for two things: - Oxygen. Most of Earth's oxygen is produced by phytoplankton in the sea. These humble, one-celled organisms, rather than the spectacular rain forests, are the true lungs of the planet. - Climate control. Our climate is regulated by the ocean's currents, winds, and water-cycle activity. Sea Sick is the first book to examine the current state of the world's oceans -- the great unexamined ecological crisis of the planet -- and the fact that we are altering everything about them; temperature, salinity, acidity, ice cover, volume, circulation, and, of course, the life within them. Alanna Mitchell joins the crews of leading scientists in nine of the global ocean's hotspots to see firsthand what is really happening around the world. Whether it's the impact of coral reef bleaching, the puzzle of the oxygen-less dead zones such as the one in the Gulf of Mexico, or the shocking implications of the changing Ph balance of the sea, Mitchell explains the science behind the story to create an engaging, accessible yet authoritative account.
