Jewish Self-Defense in South America
Jewish Self-Defense in South America charts the ways in which Jewish youth in Argentina and Uruguay organized self-defense groups in the wake of an anti-Semitic wave that swept the Southern Cone in the 1960s. The kidnapping of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in Buenos Aires in 1960 and his trial and execution in Israel in 1962, as well as the assassination of the Latvian war criminal Herberts Cukurs in Montevideo in 1965, provoked violent attacks by right-wing nationalist organizations against Jewish lives and property. Thousands of Jews decided to teach the anti-Semitic bullies a lesson and make it very clear that shedding Jewish blood would not go unpunished, that Jews were no longer pass...

Mini
From its birth in 1959, the Mini grew to become a national treasure and huge success: Princess Margaret owned one, as did Steve McQueen, Paul Newman, the Beatles, Peter Sellers and Marianne Faithfull. Its popularity with women in particular marked it out from the crowd, and sales soared as the car was taken up by the new urban elite and took a starring role in The Italian Job. But there was trouble - the basic Mini sold for less than it cost to produce, and by the early eighties the miracle machine had become a symbol of manufacturing incompetence. The end came in 2000, but a new generation of Mini was just around the corner, and today this motoring pin-up is as iconic as ever. Mini features contributions from those who have known and loved this troubled star, as well as its scornful critics. Full of fascinating facts and vivid stories, this is a fabulous celebration of a living national treasure that reads more like the life story of a wayward royal than a machine.
Defending Irene
One girl’s strong spirit and love of soccer drive her to persevere in the face of adversity in this lively and engaging novel. Irene loves soccer, a passion she inherited from her Italian father.

Civilizing the Workplace
Stress, headaches, ulcers, exhaustion, insomnia, anxiety, burnout, nervous breakdown. Are these a few of the buzz words that are defining your work life? Today's corporate world is a perilous land where downsizing rules the day and management theories come and go with each fiscal quarter. Overworked, bullied, and micromanaged, employees find their contributions rarely acknowledged and their time and energy spent more on office politics and power games than on efforts to get the job done. Civilizing the Workplace uses case histories and actual situations to demonstrate how to cope with corporate abuse, reintroduce respect into the workplace, and return integrity to both corporations and their employees. Everyone can profit from these changes. Written by two experts in the field, this timely and controversial book redefines the corporate climate, and ensures that you will never look at the corporate jungle in quite the same way again. (1997)
