Who's afraid of big, bad sales? Almost everyone, says NRS Media co-founder Mike Brunel. Cold calls freak people out, and nobody wants to be thought of as the stereotypical sleazy salesperson. It doesn't have to be that way, though. In Selling Is Not Optional, Brunel shares the key insight that led to his own success as an international media businessman: we are all in sales. How we think about sales, however, has more impact on our success than what we actually sell. Brunel's paradigm-shifting book shows you how to change your sales mindset for better results.

With this eyeopening book, he says, "Yes, you can. Let me show you how."

In Cultural Encounters with the Environment, a distinguished group of contributors offers a fresh and original view of contemporary geography. The authors explore the role of four traditional themes in the Onew cultural geographyO: the interplay between the evolution of particular biophysical niches and the activities of the culture groups that inhabit them; the diffusion of cultural traits; the establishment and definition of culture areas; and the distinctive mix of geographical characteristics that gives places their special character in relation to one another. By examining how cultural space is constructed; how environment is remade, understood, and imaged as a consequence; and how people lay claim to place, this volume establishes a compelling case for the importance of these enduring concepts to present and future trajectories in cultural geography.
