Political Skill at Work: Revised and Updated - Gerald R Ferris - Bog - John Murray Press - Plusbog.dk

Revised and updated edition! Political skill is a characteristic that can facilitate good things for individuals and their organizations. Yes, it is possible that political skill can be used and to get away with self-serving acts at the expense of others, but contrary to the stereotypical perceptions of being political, political skill is about more than manipulation. In fact, political skill enables people to build trust and forge positive relationships, and leaders often need it to influence others and access resources critical to their teams'' success. This edition has been revised and updated with more than 15 years of additional research on political skill, as well as new examples that demonstrate why, in today''s organizations, career success depends more on political skill than on almost any other characteristic.

Just Beneath the Soil - Clint Smith - Bog - John Murray Press - Plusbog.dk

Just Beneath the Soil - Clint Smith - Bog - John Murray Press - Plusbog.dk

Clint Smith continues his exploration of public memory and trains his expert eye on a new time period: World War II. With his poetic, effortless prose, he brings us along as he interrogates what it means to have a 'Western perspective' on the most consequential and brutal global event of the past century. He spends time with one of the last Navajo Code Talkers, a survivor of the infamous boarding schools for Native children. He sits with the still-living Korean "comfort women" who were subjected to sexual slavery at the hands of the Japanese military. He remembers his great uncle, a Black American veteran who signed up to fight for a country that subjected him to racial terror. He asks, why do we lift Germany up as an exemplar of remembrance for their willingness to build memorials, monuments, and museums dedicated to the Holocaust? And should we? As with everything he writes, accessibility to a broad audience and intellectual rigor are his goal. Clint puts it best: 'I wrote it for the 15-year-old version of myself. This book represents a new way of thinking about the greatest conflict of the past century, and provides new eyes through which we might collectively understand it.'

On This Day in History - Dan Snow - Bog - John Murray Press - Plusbog.dk

On which day was history''s shortest war waged and won (in roughly 40 minutes)? How was Napoleon bested by a group of rabbits in 1807? Why did a dispute about beer in an Oxford pub lead to over 100 deaths and 470 years of penance? Why in 1752 did Britain go to bed on 2nd September and wake up on the 14th? How did a women''s march in 1917 set off the Russian Revolution? On This Day in History brings to life a key event that happened on each day of the year.From the most important British battle that you''ve never heard of (20 May 685) to the first meeting of Lennon and McCartney (6 July 1957), and from why Julius Caesar should have been wary of the Ides of March (15 March 44BC) to the day Jeanne de Clisson became a pirate and single-handedly declared war on the King of France (2 August 1343), history is full of unlikely heroes and fascinating turning points.In this book Dan Snow shows us how each day offers a different and unexpected insight into our past. And story by gripping story, this year grows into a vivid, very human history of the world.

The Curious Habits of Dr Adams - Jane Robins - Bog - John Murray Press - Plusbog.dk

''Was rich Mrs Gertrude Hullett murdered at her luxurious 15-room home on Beachy Head? Detectives are tonight trying to establish the cause of the 50-year-old widow''s sudden death . . . '' Daily Mail , 1957In July 1957, the press descended in droves on the south-coast town of Eastbourne. An inquest had just been opened into the suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of Mrs Bobbie Hullett. She died after months of apparent barbiturate abuse - the drugs prescribed to calm her nerves by her close friend and doctor, Dr John Bodkin Adams.The inquest brought to the surface years of whispered suspicion that had swept through the tea rooms, shops and nursing homes of the town. The doctor''s alarming influence over the lives, deaths and finances of wealthy widows had not gone unnoticed - it was rumoured that the family doctor had been on a killing spree that spanned decades and involved 300 suspicious cases. Superintendent Hannam of Scotland Yard was called in to investigate. The Curious Habits of Dr Adams brilliantly brings to life the atmosphere of post-war England, and uses a wealth of new documents to follow the twists and turns of an extraordinary Scotland Yard murder enquiry. As expertly crafted as the best period detective novel, this book casts an entertainingly chilling light on a man reputed to be one of England''s most prolific serial killers.

''THIS BOOK COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE'' Lorraine Kelly 1 in 15 men. 1 in 18 women. Every year in the UK 43,000 people are newly diagnosed with bowel cancer. Dr Anisha Patel is one of them. Young, fit, and married to a consultant gastroenterologist and bowel cancer screening specialist, in 2018 she was diagnosed with Stage 3 bowel cancer. Despite being a family doctor, Anisha had no idea what would come next. With the benefit of hindsight, and after first-hand experience, she understands now that the diagnosis is just the beginning, that treatment can be physically and mentally overwhelming, and that the hard work really starts when the treatment ends. Drawing on her own experience and her medical expertise, as well as that of specialists in the field, Anisha''s book is an essential companion for anyone facing a cancer diagnosis. She outlines what to expect at each stage, from diagnosis, through treatment and into the ''new normal'' that awaits, with practical advice and emotional guidance for every step of the way. Hers is not the only voice; here you will find a chorus of individuals who share their own lived experiences of bowel cancer and its aftermath, in the hope that they, too, can navigate you through the eye of the cancer storm, to thrive in the life beyond. Powerful and personal, this is a life-saving book for a life-changing diagnosis, and a testament to human resilience and the enduring power of hope.
