Ethics, Functionalism, and Power in International Politics: The Crisis in Values
ISBN: 9780807125007 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Recovering from its initial shock and resulting total absorption in the Watergate political scandal, the United States in the mid-1970s began to address itself to the moral implications of its politics, both national and international. The national concern with political values provided the 1976 presidential and congressional elections with perhaps the single most-discussed issue and continues to influence a generally more scrutinizing approach toward national policy. Are we using the best system of values to examine the nation's political problems? Must we forsake idealism for realism?...

Old Bob's Birds
ISBN: 9780648035640 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Join Old Bob the sundowner and his two small friends, Roddy and Susan, as Bob shares the vast lore of the bush, gained during a lifetime of wandering. For over 60 years readers of Australian nature stories have recognised that "Thompson and truth" are synonymous. He writes about his birds and animals as they are and not as fancy would fashion them; thus, "Old Bob," though a great bird lover, does not see his feathered friends through rose-tinted glasses. Like humans, says "Old Bob," the birds all have their little faults. Some of them, indeed, are real villains. Written in the...

ISBN: 9780595358236 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. With a subdued hissing sound, a luminous sphere emerged from the fireplace, moving slowly, parallel to the wall and knee-height from the floor. The sphere was half the size of a football, and moved horizontally, set away from the wall by an arms-length. Both Toshiro and his uncle gazed at this apparition in profound fascination. Then the sphere suddenly vanished, leaving a faint smell of ozone and nitric oxide as the only vestiges of its passing. The whole experience had probably lasted less than two seconds. They remained silent and heard a distant roll of thunder.
There had been no sharp... With a subdued hissing sound, a luminous sphere emerged from the fireplace, moving slowly, parallel to the wall and knee-height from the floor. The sp...

The Philosophy of Management
ISBN: 9780415279840 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Taylorism was criticized for its over-simplistic view of what motivated the worker. Oliver Sheldon's theme was that though Taylorism had helped the development of a science of management, such work should not detract from the predominantly human job of the manager to manage. His work prefigures the human relations approach to management theory of Elton Mayo and F. J. Roethlisberger in rejecting the notion that economic incentives largely explain employee behavior.
