Incidents and Anecdotes of the Civil War (Abridged, Annotated)
The stern look on the cover of this book should not fool you. David Dixon Porter was one of the wittiest, most erudite men to have served in the American Civil War and once you've read his memoirs, you won't miss the twinkle in those eyes. What most Americans know about the Civil War centers around Union and Confederate land campaigns. But without the U.S. Navy, the absolutely essential blockade of southern ports could not have prevented the rebels from trading on a large scale.

Organizational Learning and Knowledge Creation
How does invention happen? The initial step of organizational learning is knowledge creation. The foundational processes of knowledge creation are little understood. Eminent scholars of organizational learning have made calls for more "fine-grained" examinations of knowledge creation, agreeing that "more theoretical work is needed to further expand on processes through which new organizational knowledge emerges, " and that the knowledge creation process is the area that would "most benefit from more theorizing and empirical research...and is needed to round out our understanding of organizational learning"(Argote & Miron-Spektor, 2011; Tsoukas, 2009). To understand these processes, I embedde...
