Industrial Behaviour: Theoretical Development Since Taylor

Penguin Books, Ltd.

From September 1836 to December 1837, young Aboriginal clerks produced the Flinders Island Weekly Chronicle, a remarkable record of life on the island off Tasmania where a number of Aboriginal people had been forced to resettle. Copied by hand, it describes the settlement in often poignant terms 'I am much afraid none of us will be alive by and by as there is nothing but sickness among us. Why don't the black fellows pray to the king to get us away from this place?' Starting with this extraordinary newsletter, Michael Rose has brought together examples of Aboriginal journalism from a wide range of Aboriginal and mainstream publications. He includes articles from early activists and others who used newspaper and magazine journalism in their fight for justice. For The Record also offers the reader an unusual glimpse, through Aboriginal eyes, of key issues and events in Aboriginal and Australian history. Included in the dozens of articles selected: protests about poor treatment on reserves in the 1930s, an eyewitness account of a Maralinga atomic bomb test in the 1950s, Bill Rosser's reporting of life on Palm Island, Kevin Gilbert's passionate call for a formal treaty between Aboriginal people and the Australian government and Poel Pearson's commentary on the High Court's Mabo decision.

An intimate and revealing portrait of one of France's greatest composers. 
The concentration of artistic talent in Paris in the first half of the nineteenth century was one of the phenomena of European cultural history -- Hugo, Vigny, Balzac, Gautier, Ingres, Delacroix, Géricault, Heine, Cherubini, Rossini, Meyerbeer, Chopin, Liszt -- and at its center Berlioz, the archetypal Romantic, misunderstood, unrecognized, and ridiculed in his lifetime, and now generally accepted as the greatest French composer of the nineteenth century. His dynamic, often extravagant public image, combined with a sharp critical intelligence and a mischievous sense of humor, did not always endear him to his more conventional colleagues, but there was an engaging, naïve, sometimes almost timid private side to this insatiable seeker of musical truth that brought him many loyal but sometimes long-suffering friends. 
His own memoirs, not always the most objective of accounts, have become a classic of musical literature, but they suffer from an inevitable self-regard. With Berlioz Remembered, Michael Rose presents the other side of the picture -- the effect Berlioz produced on others, whether friends or enemies, supporters or critics, or just plain observers -- and, in bringing together a series of impressions that can sometimes be as intemperate as Berlioz's own, Rose provides a revealing complement to them.

When the public envisions Atlanta during the Civil War, two primary images--of two unparalleled individuals--dominate: William Tecumseh Sherman and Scarlett O'Hara; however, there is more to the city's Civil War heritage than a frowning general and a wily gentlewoman. Within the pages of Atlanta: A Portrait of the Civil War, discover the old city streets, period homes, and military fortifications of Atlanta in a number of rarely reproduced Civil War photographs. Taken from the Atlanta History Center's visual arts collection, the images in this volume tell the story of the city as it was up to and during the Civil War. View the ruins of the Ponder House, the destruction of the rail lines, and the demolition of General Hood's ordnance train. Informative captions complement this engaging collection of images, and include excerpts from diaries, letters, and memoirs regarding life in Atlanta during the war. Many of the photographs were taken by George N. Barnard and his staff during the Federal occupation of Atlanta in the fall of 1864, and again in 1866 as he planned a publication of war views. Atlanta: A Portrait of the Civil War offers a comprehensive view of the city during a war that continues to fascinate both professional and amateur historians alike.

Atlanta, the thriving capital of the New South, has a rich and fascinating history. In Atlanta Scenes, authors Kimberly S. Blass and Michael Rose draw from the works of some of the city’s earliest and finest photojournalists―Francis Price, Marion Johnson, Bill Wilson, and Kenneth Rogers―to bring that history to life. Atlanta Scenes documents some of the city’s noteworthy events, personalities, and landmarks, many of which will be readily identifiable. The images range from the everyday (baseball games at Ponce de Leon Ballpark, boys on bicycles, and Humane Society dog rescues) to the eventful (the Gone with the Wind premiere, the deadly Winecoff Hotel fire, and the infamous Leo Frank trial). Many scenes reflect the iconography of the Old South, while others provide insight into the harsh realities of twentieth-century life. In this volume, well-crafted, artistic images blend with on-the-spot action shots.

One of the most significant causes of low morale is a lack of basic day-to-day recognition. Taking recognition seriously can have a major impact on employee motivation and the effectiveness of a business.

With key learning points from the British military, police and government, he gives advice on: -the value of recognition -how and when to recognize people -prizes and gifts to incentivize -costs and budgeting -how to implement strategies -pitfalls to avoid. Including case studies of international companies, A Guide to Non-Cash Reward outlines how to effectively use intrinsic rewards at a time when salaries are frozen and staff are more important than ever.

Renowned for his role in the Iranian Embassy siege and the Falklands War, General Sir Michael Rose now tells the inside story of one of the toughest challenges of his career, as Commander of the UN Protection Force in Bosnia in 1994.Having inherited a mission that was sliding into chaos, Rose's brief was to sustain the people of Bosnia in the midst of a devastating three-sided war and to try to prevent the conflict escalating. Facing scenes of inhumanity not witnessed in Europe since 1945, he describes how he dealt with individuals who would stop at nothing to fulfil their personal and political agendas.When General Rose left Bosnia at the end of the year the military conflict had been stabilised, aid convoys were reaching their destinations and civilians were once again able to walk the streets. How this turnaround was achieved is the subject of this plain-speaking, controversial account of a complex and bloody war.
