The Ninth Circle
Hippolyte Arsenault, a very rich Energy CEO, wants to divorce his wife; but he doesn't want to split his fortune with her. Virgine, his wife, is on her way to a beautifully rugged part of Montana to fly fish for native species. Her guide, Dante, is a former special, Special Forces, with a Ph.D. in philosophy. Dante, the first of a new series by Michael Hannan, is the story of corporate machinations, greed, arrogance, and murder amid a stunning backdrop of westerner beauty that Dante describes as one that hasn't yet drawn narcissistic idolaters.
Rolling Stones
Synopsis As Iraq is being invaded, Baghdadis brake into the National Museum and cart off whatever they can carry. In all, they loot more than 15,000 pieces of art and antiquity. Finding 103 Sumerian cylinder seals, the museum's most valuable collection is the team's next project. This time they really have their work cut out for them because three Special Forces units are also trying to find the seals. The villains want to sell them for $25 million; the Iranians want to score a political coup; and the Coalition Task Force wants to return them. The Iranians have already tried to kidnap Kelly, and the villains would like to see her dead as well. Add to the mix, the CIA (ours and Canada's), the Montreal Police, the Mounties, and a devious, smooth-talking PI, and you'll understand why Kelly calls this one a grand cockup.

Concepts and Categories
Why do people like books, music, or movies that adhere consistently to genre conventions? Why is it hard for politicians to take positions that cross ideological boundaries? Why do we have dramatically different expectations of companies that are categorized as social media platforms as opposed to news media sites? The answers to these questions require an understanding of how people use basic concepts in their everyday lives to give meaning to objects, other people, and social situations and actions. In this book, a team of sociologists presents a groundbreaking model of concepts and categorization that can guide sociological and cultural analysis of a wide variety of social situations. Dra...
Logics of Organization Theory
Building theories of organizations is challenging: theories are partial and "folk" categories are fuzzy. The commonly used tools--first-order logic and its foundational set theory--are ill-suited for handling these complications. Here, three leading authorities rethink organization theory. Logics of Organization Theory sets forth and applies a new language for theory building based on a nonmonotonic logic and fuzzy set theory. In doing so, not only does it mark a major advance in organizational theory, but it also draws lessons for theory building elsewhere in the social sciences. Organizational research typically analyzes organizations in categories such as "bank," "hospital," or "universit...
Organizational Ecology
Hannan and Freeman examine the ecology of organizations by exploring the competition for resources and by trying to account for rates of entry and exit and for the diversity of organizational forms. They show that the destinies of organizations are determined more by impersonal forces than by the intervention of individuals.
