Working Through Synthetic Worlds
Virtual environments (VE) are human-computer interfaces in which the computer creates a sensory-immersing environment that interactively responds to and is controlled by the behaviour of the user. Since these technologies will continue to become more reliable, more resolute and more affordable, it's important to consider the advantages that VEs may offer to support business processes. The term 'synthetic world' refers to a subset of VEs, having a large virtual landscape and a set of rules that govern the interactions among participants. Currently, the primary motivators for participation in these synthetic worlds appear to be fun and novelty. As the novelty wears off, synthetic worlds will n...

A Place Apart
Long-listed for the 2006 Re-Lit Award for Best Novel For 15-year-old Cathy Mugan, "a place apart" is where she longs to be: apart from her mother, an unhinged, uncontrollable terror who explodes at the slightest provocation. So Cathy has a chance to work at a rectory for the summer, she seizes it. But "a place apart" is also where Cathy is: surrounded by violence, a cowering father, and a contemptuous brother, she is almost completely alone. Her closest friend exists only in her imagination, a frightening sign that perhaps Cathy has more in common with her mad mother than she - or the reader - wants to believe. Stirring and dramatic, this is an unforgettable debut from Canada's next major author. Engaging characters, enthralling scenes, and lyrical beauty will make A Place Apart stay with readers for years.

The Secret Life of the Corporate Jester
In the early 12th century, members of the Chinese royal court found themselves surrounded by advisors who mirrored only their own perspectives. Out of fear and complacency, few of these advisors challenged accepted wisdom, questioned the status quo, or voiced their concerns. Insightful leaders realized this denied them critical access to the reality about themselves and their organizations. Court jesters, however, free from conventional restraints and fears, began to supply truth in very clever ways, thereby opening up new perspectives, insights, ideas and options for those leaders they attended. Today, more than ever, individuals are searching for ways to positively contribute to organizati...
