Chopin and His World
A new look at the life, times, and music of Polish composer and piano virtuoso Fryderyk Chopin Fryderyk Chopin (1810–49), although the most beloved of piano composers, remains a contradictory figure, an artist of virtually universal appeal who preferred the company of only a few sympathetic friends and listeners. Chopin and His World reexamines Chopin and his music in light of the cultural narratives formed during his lifetime.

Words and pictures come together in this book about the life and photography of George Stranahan, physicist, professor, rancher, founder of Flying Dog brewery [and Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey], philanthropist, former head of Aspen Community School, and friend of Hunter S.

Starting out by imitating the work and subject matter of Ansel Adams and Edward Weston, Stranahan grew into his own idiosyncratic style. “As I look at my photos now,” he says, “I think that perhaps they are the serious work of my life.” (Cornell Alumni Magazine, March/April 2010) WINNER of the 2010 Colorado Book Award, Pictorial Category WINNER of The Indie Next Generation Coffee Table/Photography Book Award and Grand Prize Winner - Second Place, Non-Fiction Award

Chefsache Diversity Management
Das Buch stellt die aktuellen Herausforderungen von Diversity bzw. Vielfaltsmanagement vor. Gerade die Personalabteilungen von Unternehmen stellt Diversity vor große Anforderungen, da es meist im Sinne von „soziale Vielfalt konstruktiv nutzen“ verwendet wird. Diversity Management toleriert nicht nur die individuelle Verschiedenheit der Mitarbeiter und Mitarbeiterinnen, sondern hebt diese im Sinne einer positiven Wertschätzung besonders hervor und versucht, sie für den Unternehmenserfolg nutzbar zu machen. Die Autoren zeigen in vielen Praxisbeispielen auf, was Unternehmen tun können, um Diversity Management werteorientiert und nachhaltig sicherzustellen.
Women and Capital Punishment in the United States
The history of the execution of women in the United States has largely been ignored and scholars have given scant attention to gender issues in capital punishment. This historical analysis examines the social, political and economic contexts in which the justice system has put women to death, revealing a pattern of patriarchal domination and female subordination. The book includes a discussion of condemned women granted executive clemency and judicial commutations, an inquiry into women falsely convicted in potentially capital cases and a profile of the current female death row population.
