Paperback. Condizione: Good. Set in the 1930s, this poignant, funny, and utterly original novel tells the story of one lost girl's struggle for truth, identity, and understanding amidst her family's nomadic, unconventional lifestyle. What's the right way to behave, to think, to feel--if you're always the new girl? How do you navigate life when you're continually on the move? Do you lie? How do you even know if you're lying? What's the truth anyway? It's 1928 and nine-year-old Lucresse Briard is trying to make sense of life and the jumbled, often challenging family it's handed her: a single art-dealer father who thinks nothing of moving from place to place; her brother, Ben, who succeeds in any situation and seems destined for stardom; and their houseman, Fred, who acts like an old woman. As Lucresse advances through childhood to adolescence, she goes from telling wild lies for attention to desperately seeking the truth of who she is as a sophistication-craving teenager in the 1930s. Told from Lucresse's perspective as a grown woman, The Trouble with the Truth transcends its time in the late 1920s and '30s and weaves the story we all live of struggling to learn who we are and the truth behind this human journey.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. A concise, practical volume that identifies seven basic imperatives for effective leadership: be sure, be focused, be humble, be discerning, be complementary, be uncompromising, and be encouraged. Author Joseph Robinson Jr. draws these imperatives from the life and character of the biblical wild man, John the Baptist, and then offers concrete illustrations of those characteristics at work in the lives of contemporary leaders, both religious and secular, from Mother Teresa to Michael Jordan, from Pastor Tony Evans to Coach Tony Dungy as well as characters from movies such as Mr. Holland's Opus, In the Heat of the Night, and Coming to America. The result is a common language and universal framework for discussing leadership in any setting.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. The Times called her a heroine, Florence Nightingale called her a brothel-keeping quack, and Queen Victoria's nephew called her, simply, 'Mammy' - Mary Seacole was one of the most eccentric and charismatic women of her era. Born at her mother's hotel in Jamaica in 1805, she became an independent 'doctress' combining the herbal remedies of her African ancestry with sound surgical techniques. On the outbreak of the Crimean War she arrived in London desperate to join Florence Nightingale at the Front, but the authorities refused to see her. Being black, nearly 50, rather stout, and gloriously loud in every way, she was obviously unsuitable. Undaunted, Mary travelled to Balaklava under her own steam to build the 'British Hotel', just behind the lines. It was an outrageous venture, and a huge success - she became known and loved by everyone from the rank and file to the royal family. For more than a century after her death this remarkable woman was all but forgotten. This, the first full-length biography of a Victorian celebrity recently voted the greatest black Briton in history, brings Mary Seacole centre stage at last. …

Paperback. Condizione: Good. A fundamental assumption in most of the literature on leadership is that a few will need to control the many. This assumption leads to a search for power but with an either/or mindset: if I have power, then others cannot have as much as me or they will be a threat. Organizations, when anxious, experience limited ability to learn and change. There is an alternative, paradoxical way to understand leadership. A leader is most effective not by controlling others but by defining himself/herself. It is critical for leaders to face their fears, challenge their assumptions and thus be able to change their self-perception. A Leadership Paradox outlines such an alternative view of leadership and provides a model for achieving differentiated leadership. …
