Russell M. Nelson
President Russell M. Nelson, the seventeenth President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is sustained by millions around the world as a Prophet of God. But he is a Mormon Prophet with a difference. Prior to his historic 1984 call as an LDS Apostle President Nelson was already world-renowned as a surgeon. His pioneering work in the field of open-heart surgery beginning in the 1950's has blessed the lives of millions around the world. This book of personal reminiscences, written by former secretary to the First Presidency and prolific Mormon biographer Francis M. Gibbons, gives significant new insight into President Nelson's early life in Salt Lake City, his family, his bapti...

Raven's Witness
2020 Banff Mountain Book Competition Finalist in Mountain Literature Richard K. Nelson was the host of the national public radio series, "Encounters" Nelson was an anthropologist who lived with Alaska Native tribes and spoke both Inupiag and Koyukon Based on Nelson’s journals and interviews with Gary Snyder, Barry Lopez, Rick Bass, and others "He listened to his [Native Alaskan] teachers, immersed himself in their landscapes as a naturalist, and became, without intending to, a great teacher himself." --Barry Lopez, from the foreword Before his death in 2019, cultural anthropologist, author, and radio producer Richard K. Nelson’s work focused primarily on the indigenous cultures of Alaska...
Make Prayers to the Raven
"Nelson spent a year among the Koyukon people of western Alaska, studying their intimate relationship with animals and the land. His chronicle of that visit represents a thorough and elegant account of the mystical connection between Native Americans and the natural world."—Outside "This admirable reflection on the natural history of the Koyukon River drainage in Alaska is founded on knowledge the author gained as a student of the Koyukon culture, indigenous to that region. He presents these Athapascan views of the land—principally of its animals and Koyukon relationships with those creatures—together with a measured account of his own experiences and doubts. . . . For someone in searc...
An Evolutionary Theory of Economic Change
This book contains the most sustained and serious attack on mainstream, neoclassical economics in more than forty years. Nelson and Winter focus their critique on the basic question of how firms and industries change overtime. They marshal significant objections to the fundamental neoclassical assumptions of profit maximization and market equilibrium, which they find ineffective in the analysis of technological innovation and the dynamics of competition among firms. To replace these assumptions, they borrow from biology the concept of natural selection to construct a precise and detailed evolutionary theory of business behavior. They grant that films are motivated by profit and engage in sea...

Two Shakespearean Actors
Nominated for Tony Award, Best Play "Illuminating, enlivening, a sheer joy." James Christopher, Time Out "Sharp characterization and magical theatricality." John Peter, The London Times "Containing statements like 'American actors for America!' and the ugly sounds of a nationalist riot, the play holds a disturbing mirror up to a world where fundamentalist bigotry is on the increase... It is Nelson's achievement to have done this through a drama that is also quite exhilarating." Paul Taylor, The Independent "This is a must for theatre lovers; or as the actor sitting next to me put it, 'Now I know why theatre has me by the throat.' Precisely!" Liz Gilbey, What's On "Mr Nelson's work is partly about the glorious chaos of play-making but also chases much bigger themes. On one level, his play is about theatre as a metaphor for post-colonial arrogance... On another level, it is about the power and mystery of acting itself." Michael Billington, The Guardian
