Tom Calvert and his family have come to Texas from Virginia to escape the prejudicial attitude of Virginia aristocrats. Duty to a friend will compel Tom to leave the Bar T. Jamie Blanchard, the young man hired to help Tom's family leaves in search of Glory. Both men face the horrors of the American Civil War on separate fronts. Jack Calvert, Tom's son, waits for their return. Fate will deal Jack a cruel hand and it will send him on a journey for justice. Jack's quest will take him to Lookout Texas where he will find love and a challenge that will test more than his skills with a gun.

This pioneering graduate textbook provides readers with the concepts and practical tools required to understand the maximum entropy principle, and apply it to an understanding of ecological patterns. Rather than building and combining mechanistic models of ecosystems, the approach is grounded in information theory and the logic of inference. Paralleling the derivation of thermodynamics from the maximum entropy principle, the state variable theory of ecology developed in this book predicts realistic forms for all metrics of ecology that describe patterns in the distribution, abundance, and...

Formerly a top operational manager with multinational organizations, John Harte applies his hands-on knowledge of the business world to provide a realistic examination of workplace and marketplace conditions. In place of reasoned management and disciplined organization, Harte depicts daily distractions, disorder, vagueness, and confusion. Instead of the logical processes described in classroom case histories with rational solutions, he provides tales of an abundance of irrational judgments, personal foibles, and business follies.
Harte has witnessed the demise of many companies--some...

Successful Management in the Digital Age examines key factors for success in today's business environment--finding markets, being vigilant for new trends and changes, exploiting opportunities, and overcoming obstacles. While acknowledging the benefits of technological advances in some areas, John Harte shows how artificial intelligence is limited and often imperfect. Becoming thoughtlessly dependent on it may replace the far more rewarding benefits of human ingenuity, creativity and innovation.
For Harte, organizational complacency is one of the prime causes of business...
