Как да управляваме в един несигурен свят ... Мениджърите непрекъснато вземат решения. Всъщност би могло да се каже, че на тях за това им се плаща. Широко споделяно е мнението, че с достатъчно знания ние можем да вземаме рационални, обективни решения, "правилните" решения, които ще ни донесат желаните резултати. Но, както показва Крис Блейк, бизнесът, също като живота и покера, е несигурен и изпълнен с рискове – правилното решение не винаги носи резултатите, които сме очаквали.

It was a dappled and daubed harbor scene that gave Impressionism its name. When Impression, Sunrise by Claude Monet was exhibited in April 1874, critics seized upon the work's title and its loose stylistic rendering of light and motion upon water to deride this new, impressionistic, tendency in art. As with many seminal art movements, the critics got their comeuppance. Today, Impressionism is close contender for the world's favorite period of painting. With blockbuster exhibitions, record-breaking auction prices, and packed museums, the works once dismissed as unfinished or imprecise are now beloved for their ... |

Робърт М. Пърсиг е автор само на две книги, но още първата - Дзен и изкуството да се поддържа мотоциклет - с излизането си през 1974 г., се превръща в истински бестселър и му носи световна известност.

A psycholinguistic analysis of editorials concerning 9/11. ... "Life and Death in a Time of Terror" is a psycholinguistic study of how 270 editorials from five different newspapers sought to make sense of an initially incomprehensible set of events: the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center in New York, the Pentagon in Washington, DC and a United Airlines jet flying over a field somewhere in rural Pennsylvania. What made this a pressing task in 2001 was that not only did these attacks produce some 3000 deaths (many as horrible as can possibly be imagined), the destruction of two of America's largest ... |
