How organizations can anticipate threats, spot opportunities, and act faster when the time is right; with rich examples including Adobe, MasterCard, and Amazon.\n\nWhen turbulence is the new normal, an organization's survival depends on vigilant leadership that can anticipate threats, spot opportunities, and act quickly when the time is right. In See Sooner, Act Faster, strategy experts George Day and Paul Schoemaker offer tools for thriving when digital advances intensify turbulence. \n\nVigilant firms have greater foresight than their rivals, while vulnerable firms often miss early signals of external threats and organizational challenges. Charles Schwab, for example, was early to see and act on the promise of \"robo-advisors\"; Honeywell, on the other hand, stumbled when Nest Labs came out first with a \"smart\" thermostat. Day and Schoemaker show leaders how to assess their vigilance capabilities and cultivate insight and foresight throughout their organizations. They draw on a range of cases, including Adobe and Intuit's move to the cloud, Shell's investment in clean energy, and MasterCard's early recognition of digital challenges. \n\nDay and Schoemaker describe how to allocate the scarce resource of attention, how to detect weak signals and separate them from background noise, and how to respond strategically before competitors do. The challenge is not just to act faster but to act wisely, and the authors suggest ways to create dynamic portfolios of options. Finally, they offer an action agenda, with tips for fostering vigilance and agility throughout an organization. The rewards are stronger market positions, higher profits and growth, more motivated employees, and organization longevity.

Originally published in 1986, in order to probe, dispute and analyse the role of artificial intelligence in cybernetic thought and information science, the author pursues this topic within its philosophical, behavioral and neurophysiological contexts, while drawing attention to cognitive issues. By elucidating the problems and potential associated with knowledge-based systems, the book emphasized the need to examine artificial intelligence in its own right.

What could Greek poets or Roman historians say in their own language that would be lost in translation? After all, different languages have different personalities, and this is especially clear with languages of the ancient and medieval world. This volume celebrates six such languages - Ancient Greek, Latin, Old English, Sanskrit, Old Irish, and Biblical Hebrew - by first introducing readers to their most distinctive features, then showing how these linguistic traits play out in short excerpts from actual ancient texts. It explores, for instance, how Homer's Greek shows signs of oral composition, how Horace achieves striking poetic effects through interlaced word order in his Latin, and how the poet of Beowulf attains remarkable intensity of expression through the resources of Old English. But these are languages that have shared connections as well. Readers will see how the Sanskrit of the Rig Veda uses words that come from roots found also in English, how turns of phrase characteristic of the Hebrew Bible found their way into English, and that even as unusual a language as Old Irish still builds on common Indo-European linguistic patterns. Very few people have the opportunity to learn these languages, and they can often seem mysterious and inaccessible: drawing on a lucid and engaging writing style and with the aid of clear English translations throughout, this book aims to give all readers, whether scholars, students, or interested novices, an aesthetic appreciation of just how rich and varied they are.

«Spero che quest'opera sia servita a stabilire la verità per cui i tre grandi settori del movimento operaio - i sindacati, le società cooperative e le organizzazioni politiche - non sono che tre aspetti di una stessa tendenza. Essi traggono la loro forza da una comune necessità e da una comune ispirazione e, sebbene le loro strade a volte si dividano, mirano a un fine comune». George Cole, nel presente libro, compie una straordinaria impresa: ricostruisce la storia del movimento operaio in Gran Bretagna attraverso un esame comparato dei movimenti culturali e politici, delle azioni sindacali e delle attività cooperative, tenendo in debito conto la situazione economica generale inglese e la posizione della Gran Bretagna nei gangli principali della politica internazionale. Un'opera di grande valore per la visione globale che Cole è riuscito a dare del movimento operaio inglese, ripercorrendo le principali vicende che lo hanno interessato e i problemi che i lavoratori inglesi si sono trovati ad affrontare.

Si tratta di un'opera di psicologia sociale scritta da uno dei principali esponenti del Pragmatismo Americano. Il volume illustra il pensiero di Mead, secondo il quale la mente è il prodotto dell'interazione sociale (attraverso il linguaggio) tra più persone. Mead sviluppò le sue idee nel corso di Psicologia Sociale tenuto presso l'Università di Chicago dal 1900 in poi, corso che ebbe grande notorietà e influenza. Il libro è una raccolta organica di quelle lezioni, curata da un suo allievo, il filosofo Charles W. Morris. Un testo di riferimento per psicologi, filosofi, linguisti e sociologi.

\"Scritti sulla formazione\" contiene una serie di saggi su educazione, studio, lavoro, gioco elaborati da George Herbert Mead tra il 1896 e il 1910, nello stesso tempo lontani e connessi alle sue opere successive. In una fase nella quale, tra la fine del XIX secolo e il primo decennio del nuovo, si sviluppa in America una intensa discussione sullo sviluppo scolastico, sui suoi caratteri e sui suoi protagonisti, in gran parte immigrati o figli di immigrati, e sulla sua diffusione in una società di massa, Mead riflette e ipotizza le forme e i contenuti di una rinnovata socializzazione cui contribuiscano genitori, formatori, istituzioni. Di pari passo alla sua autonomia e creatività del processo formativo egli sottolinea la necessità che i suoi contenuti attingano in modo diretto alle esperienze della vita quotidiana, alle sue formulazioni come alle sue contraddizioni, coinvolgendo i ragazzi, attori autonomi di sensazioni, emozioni, divertimenti e prospettive in una attività capace di esaltare le diverse risorse individuali e relazionali.

It is the summer of 1945, the last and very dangerous days of World War II. The Office of Strategic Services is in close, cooperative contact with Ho Chi Minh and the fighting cadre of the Viet Minh, working against the Japanese. In the closing months of the war, the OSS parachute a team of special operations soldiers into Tonkin, northern Viet Nam. \n\nLed by Major John Guthrie and his second-in-command, Captain Edouard Parnell, both experienced officers from their earlier assignments in occupied France and Belgium, the team are tasked with working with Ho Chi Minh against the Japanese in the midst of various groups vying for control of Indochina. Guthrie and his team have to adapt to the entirely different context of Vietnamese politics in order to encourage communist operations against the Japanese. Guthrie in particular, struggles with both his personal and professional conflicts. The relationship that Guthrie and the rest of the OSS team develops with the Viet Minh leadership is of distinct annoyance to French ambitions to regain control of their colony, Indochina.\n\nBased on the little-known true story of American and Viet Minh collaboration in 1945, this novel challenges the later-accepted dogma of both those supporting and those opposing the American role in the Viet Nam conflict. This novel notes how what is seen at a later time is often inadequate to understand what actually went on. Its contemporary relevance is simply a mirror of what is always the case in international affairs: today's enemies can and may be tomorrow's friends - and most importantly, the reverse is true also.

A stunning celebration of the architect's residential masterpieces\n\n Louis Kahn (1901-1974), one of the most important architects of the postwar period, is widely admired for his great monumental works, including the Kimbell Art Museum, the Salk Institute, and the National Assembly Complex in Bangladesh. However, the importance of his houses has been largely overlooked. This beautiful book is the first to look at Kahn's nine major private houses. Beginning with his earliest encounters with Modernism in the late 1920s and continuing through his iconic work of the 1960s and 1970s, the authors trace the evolution of the architect's thinking, which began and matured through his design of houses and their interiors, a process inspired by his interactions with clients and his admiration for vernacular building traditions.\n\nRichly illustrated with new and period photographs and original drawings, as well as previously unpublished materials from personal interviews, archives, and Kahn's own writings, The Houses of Louis Kahn shows how his ideas about domestic spaces challenged conventions, much like his major public commissions, and were developed into one of the most remarkable expressions of the American house.

No campaign in the Great War has been the subject of such intense and prolonged attention and controversy as the one in the Dardanelles. The general perception is that it was an operation involving troops from Britain and the Empire. The role of the French is barely mentioned if at all. As junior partners the French contribution does not compare to that of the British, but it was nevertheless significant. Over the course of the ten-month operation, the French government sent to the Dardanelles six pre-dreadnought battleships, four cruisers, and a host of auxiliary vessels that included minesweepers and submarines. Additionally, it supplied a total of 79,000 troops, supported by artillery and high explosive shells. The purpose of this study is to concentrate on the activity of the French so as give a more rounded picture of the story.\n \nThe main factor influencing the French decision to join the British-led expedition to the Dardanelles was to protect their interest in the Near East. France's economic and cultural ties in the Ottoman Empire were deep and of long standing, and it wanted to ensure that the British did not establish themselves in an area it coveted. Assuming that victory was a forgone conclusion, the Allies focused their early attention on the future dismemberment of Turkey rather than on attending to the needs of the campaign itself. It was a lesson for which they would pay dearly.\n \nThe French were involved in the major naval attack on 18 March 1915 during which they engaged the Turkish forts at close range and, in the process, the battleship Bouvet ran into an undetected minefield and sank with the loss of over 600 of its crew. The failure of the Allied ships to force a passage through the straits prompted the British to send in the army to seize control of the Gallipoli Peninsula. In the first landing on 25 April, British and Australian forces managed to secure the beaches but were unable to advance far inland. By contrast the French contingent's feint at Kum Cale achieved its purpose, as it was intended to delay Turkish Asiatic troops from crossing the waterway to reinforce their comrades on the peninsula during the early clash of battle. Thereafter French forces were transferred to Cape Helles and placed at the eastern end of the British line, where their efforts in the three battles of Krithia were thwarted by the terrible configuration of the ground, compounded by flanking fire from the enemy batteries in Asia. In all the military action, the number of French killed, wounded or missing in action was placed at 27,000, disproportionately higher than the British (70,000).\n \nThe French were content to play second fiddle until August when, frustrated at the lack of progress on the western front, they decided to augment their forces in the Dardanelles where they would play a commanding role and spearhead the next offensive. The government's objective touched off a sharp struggle with General Joffre who objected to the...

A non-technical (but serious) treatment of those parts of Earth history leading up to human history, as well as some pre-historical aspects of humanity. Many \"events\" in Earth's history necessarily preceded the emergence of human beings (and intelligence). Geology has provided us with a great deal of information about these various steps on the way to intelligent life, and how and why they were important. Some of these events were on a cosmic scale (no universe - no life!), some were planetological/astronomical (no Earth - no life), some were essentially chemical (how did life emerge in the primordial ocean and why do we have oxygen in the atmosphere?), and some were details of evolutionary history (how did life colonize the land and how did mammals develop?). In this book an enthusiastic professor of geosciences presents a broad introduction from the Big Bang to the present and into the future, lucidly explaining aspects from various disciplines to interested, non-specialist readers.

With some 280 colour illustrations, Introduction to Modern Design takes us on a visual survey of design from the Industrial Revolution of the eighteenth century to the Maker Movement of today. It offers a new understanding of the birth of modern design in the early twentieth century and chronicles the way its meaning has changed over the decades. The narrative is supported by twenty-six readings from significant texts by designers and critics, offering readers an opportunity to learn about design from those who created it and those who commented on it as it was done.\n\nThe focus of this book is on the objects themselves—from industrial design, furniture, ceramics, textiles, graphics, electronics, to automobiles—and explores the development of these designs in relation to industrialization, technology, environmental responsibility, consumerism, individual needs, and the expression of the social values of their day. Clearly written and accessible, Introduction to Modern Design provides a succinct history of, and fascinating insights into, the world of design.

I dieci saggi che compongono questo volume rappresentano alcuni dei più significativi contributi prodotti nell’arco degli ultimi venti anni dal grande filosofo scandinavo Georg Henrik von Wright (1916-2003). Al termine della lunga stagione che lo ha visto pioniere in svariati campi della ricerca analitica, dalla probabilità alla logica deontica, dalle teorie dell’azione e delle norme alla filosofia del diritto, dall’etica agli studi su Wittgenstein – dei cui scritti inediti egli è stato uno dei massimi editors – von Wright ha continuato in anni più recenti la sua instancabile esplorazione dei problemi che riguardano «il posto dell’uomo nella natura» aprendosi via via a nuove indagini che hanno in particolare toccato la vasta regione degli eventi mentali nel loro rapporto con il mondo materiale. Questi aspetti della sua ricerca, forse ancora poco noti, sono al centro dei saggi qui raccolti. Le tematiche sono molteplici – e comprendono, fra l’altro, la teoria dell’azione libera, la logica del dovere e del valore e le ultime riflessioni dell’autore sulla filosofia della mente – ma ruotano attorno a un assunto che le accomuna: la critica ai «dualismi» o, meglio, alle tradizionali dicotomie di uomo-natura, libertà-necessità, essere-dovere, valori-fatti, mente-corpo, espressa con l’autorità e la cristallina chiarezza che si addicono a un pensiero giunto al più alto grado del suo sviluppo.Indice: Introduzione di Rosaria Egidi – I. Spiegazione e comprensione dell’azione – II. Determinismo e conoscenza del futuro – III. Della libertà umana – IV. Essere e dovere – V. Dover essere, dover fare – VI. Valutazioni, o come dire l’indicibile – VII. Azione, parallelismo psicofisico e libertà – VIII. Osservazioni sulla filosofia della mente – IX. Su mente e materia.
