Mirrors for Princes
A historical look at the roots of management theory reveals its flaws and offers important lessons for today's leaders For four thousand years, kings and queens ruled the known world, while management experts—in the guises of sages, clerics, and courtiers of all kinds—told them how to do it. These proto-experts in leadership, ethics, and strategy wrote books describing the perfect prince. In such books, rulers could seek and polish their own reflection, as in a looking glass. These books were called mirrors for princes. Mirrors for Princes documents the clichés of this genre of literature. Typical mirrors taught the same formula, over and over: that people behave badly because of their ...

The Prince's Playbook
Too filthy to be a fairytale... I’m Prince Maximillian Rochartè of Bellèno. The tabloids claim I'm alpha, arrogant, but the reality is I make royal dilemmas disappear. The monarchy borrowed millions, loans are due, and an old-fashioned marriage of convenience might save us all. Lord Fontaine will fork over a fortune in exchange for marrying his beloved daughter Cici to my brother, playboy Prince Leo. I fly to the States and talk Cici into my scheme. She's down with it -- just needs a little time to clear up loose ends. I'm parked at a Chicago biker bar when I spot Vivian -- a pretty waitress who could be Cici's twin -- pour a pitcher of margaritas on some entitled a**'s head. She's out o...

Performing Political Theory
This book examines the performative role of influential thinkers in the history of modern Western political thought. The case studies examine influential political philosophers who saw their writing role ‘performatively’, as an exercise in pedagogy designed to generate a new type of political following among their readers. Machiavelli, Mill and Nietzsche wrote classic works in political theory (The Prince, On Liberty, Genealogy of Morals) to reform and reshape their readers’ ability to think and act politically. Thinkers become performative through what they write in their public performance; and contemporary academic teachers can use this to great pedagogical effect in helping student...
WAN DAY YAH II
This exercise is not a translation of The Holy Bible. The main intention of this exercise is to pen down Commentaries, in the Mountain Krio Vernacular which I was taught at home from infancy, and which was the cradle of the developing Krio Vernacular in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is almost undeniable that the main bulk of indigenous missionaries, teachers, traders, and so on, who settled in The Provinces emanated from, or were trained in the Greater Mountain District of the Peninsula. Of course the Krio Vernacular also developed in other parts of the Peninsula.

The Moth
With an introduction by Neil Gaiman Before television and radio, before penny paperbacks and mass literacy, people would gather on porches, on the steps outside their homes, and tell stories. The storytellers knew their craft and bewitched listeners would sit and listen long into the night as moths flitted around overhead. The Moth is a non-profit group that is trying to recapture this lost art, helping storytellers - old hands and novices alike - hone their stories before playing to packed crowds at sold-out live events. The very best of these stories are collected here: whether it's Bill Clinton's hell-raising press secretary or a leading geneticist with a family secret; a doctor whisked away by nuns to Mother Teresa's bedside or a film director saving her father's Chinatown store from money-grabbing developers; the Sultan of Brunei's concubine or a friend of Hemingway's who accidentally talks himself into a role as a substitute bullfighter, these eccentric, pitch-perfect stories - all, amazingly, true - range from the poignant to the downright hilarious.
