Those Incredible Christians is written as a companion to the bestseller, The Passover Plot. It continues the story after Jesus' crucifixion to the movements surrounding the early disciples and how the message of the gospels developed. It demonstrates with considerable evidence how the understanding of the role and person of Messiah became adapted and corrupted and how the conflicts and power struggles with the Church at Rome, and the Roman Empire emerged. Schonfield writes as an objective historian rather than as a theologian and ruthlessly tries to get behind the intensively researched data...

This book would be well worth reading as a survey of human progress towards World Order from the Code of the Hammurabi to the concept of International Law, as an outline of governmental institutions from the Roman Empire to the United Nations, as an objective consideration of universal programmes as diverse as Functional Federalism and State Shintoism. But the book is even more worth reading as a masterly analysis of current problems and principles, spiritual, political and scientific, which affect mankind in its quest for harmony and unity. But the reason why this book must be read by...

In Ohne Macht und Mandat diskutiert Wilhelm Haller (1935-2004) Gerechtigkeit in unserem Wirtschaftssystem und in unserer Gesellschaft. Dabei bringt er ganz originelle Losungsansatze ins Spiel, die sich auf einer fast ganz vergessenen Idee basieren. Bekannt als Erfinder von der Gleitzeit und als Autor mehrerer Bucher und zahlreicher Artikel uber Management, Wirtschaft und theologische Themen, verstand er sich als Schuler von Martin Buber und Hugh J.

Germany has started to look for new ways of training its future business personnel. The innovative University of Cooperative Education (Berufsakademie or BA as it is called in German and now renamed as the 'Dual Hochschule Baden-Wurttemberg (DHBW)' in that state) educates student trainees as opposed to traditional business apprenticeships. This investigation attempts to discover whether this represents a change in the paradigm of business education in Germany and how this relates to the needs in particular of SME's (Mittelstand). It compares the BA/DHBW with other providers in the light of...

This is the definitive biography of Richard Francis Burton by Hugh J. Schonfiled

Management science has become like theology, dominated by respected gurus and a body of accepted teachings. However, the pressures of a rapidly changing business environment are making managers and leaders more and more aware of the need for a broader scope of ideas to help in decision-making and the encouragement of innovation. Here I have attempted to combine conventional theories of management with concepts and writers outside of the conventional and accepted orthodoxy at the danger of being burned at the management stake for heresy. Yet, the original source of this work on strategic...

From the original fly leaf: "A distinguished American statesman and member of the bar, known chiefly heretofore as the Secretary of Commerce and Labor in the Cabinet of President Taft, as director in important enterprises, and as counsel for various corporations and individuals, here makes his bow as author (at the fine age of nearly 88) of a good book giving his recollections of life as it was lived, and war as it was waged, in the days of 1861 to 1865 during the conflict between the States. A penetrating pen-picture of things and places that few persons living today have experienced for...
