Book Description

This early work by esteemed historian Charles P. Roland draws from an abundance of primary sources to describe how the Civil War brought south Louisiana's sugarcane industry to the brink of extinction, and disaster to the lives of civilians both black and white. A gifted raconteur, Roland sets the scene where the Louisiana cane country formed "a favored and colorful part of the Old South," and then unfolds the series of events that changed it forever: secession, blockade, invasion, occupation, emancipation, and defeat. Though sugarcane survived, production did not match prewar levels for twenty-five years. Roland's approach is both illustrative of an earlier era and remarkably seminal to current emancipation studies. He displays sympathy for plantation owners' losses, but he considers as well the sufferings of women, slaves, and freedmen, yielding a rich study of the social, cultural, economic, and agricultural facets of Louisiana's sugar plantations during the Civil War.

Book Description

Genetic Alchemy summarizes and clarifies the background of policy and ethical issues, the debates engendered by uncertain risks to researchers and the population at large, and the roles played by scientists involved in one of the most prominent and controversial new technologies, gene splicing. The author, Assistant Professor of Urban and Environmental Policy at Tufts University, brings to the topic his experience on the Cambridge Review Board as it considered the siting of a recombinant DNA research facility, and on the NIH's Recombinant DNA Advisory Committee.

Customer Reviews:

An excellent account of an important chapter in the regulation of science.......2006-04-16

Krimsky tells the story of the regulation of recombinant DNA in the years 1972 or so through 1982, when this book was written. It is a quick read, written in a journalistic style: much of the storytelling is done via quotes from key participants in the events.

Biological regulation was different in this era: the biogists were just realizing that they had enough potential to create dangerous organisms with recombinant DNA, particuarly strains of E. coli (the most commonnly engineered bacterium, and a resident of the human gut) with various other genes in them. The scientists themselves to try to regulate the new technology, and are to a certain degree successful, but various federal agencies and even local governments (starting with the city of Cambridge, MA) get involved.

The level of historical and scientific detail can sometimes slow the pace a bit: but those same features make the book fascinating, since Krimsky is able to show how the scientists, as people and as a segment of society, have to deal with the balance between public safety and the advancement of science.

Free, Perfect and Now tells how one CEO nearly quadrupled his company's market value through the power of the Internet and some daring management. Written by Bob Rodin, president of electrical distributor Marshall Industries, Inc., the book is about the struggle to give customers what they want: reduced prices, higher quality, and speedy service. "Who in the world is figuring out how to serve customers at a lower cost? Closer to perfect for your customers' changing values? Faster?" Rodin writes. "We ask ourselves those questions every day at Marshall." Rodin is renowned in the trade for overseeing the creation of an award-winning business-to-business Web site--launched in 1994, far ahead of the competition. A disciple of management guru W. Edwards Deming, Rodin describes his company's astonishing rise over six years. He changed the culture by ridding the company of contests and bonuses and freeing managers from meeting quarterly objectives. One of his most revolutionary moves: abolishing commissions for his 600-strong sales staff. As far as Rodin can determine, Marshall boasts the only major sales team in the U.S. that gets paid strictly by salary and profit-sharing. That means sales pros can move customers to the Internet without worrying about losing commissions. But Rodin cautions that the Internet also means relentless competition. Even as this book was released, Marshall lost a major customer and its stock price was cut in half--Rodin may need to work some magic again. This book is for senior executives, middle managers, and businesspeople open to some radical methods for expansion. --Dan Ring

As the dynamic CEO of electronics distributor Marshall Industries, Rob Rodin engineered the astounding reinvention of his company, turning a conventionally successful $500 million business into a Web-enabled $2 billion competitive powerhouse. Free, Perfect, and Now tells the dramatic story of that transformation from the inside. Detailing the hard lessons learned in competitive battle, it offers a compelling new perspective on the most pressing issue facing businesspeople today: how to prepare a customer-focused corporation for a future you can't predict.

Its the little things.......2006-09-08

"Everyone is trying to accomplish something big, not realizing life is made up of little things."

by Frank Clark

This quote is particularly true in the computer distribution business. Our sales volumes are high and our margins are razor thin. There is little margin for waste or error. Distribution is all about the little things. Do them fast, do them right and do them cost effectively many many times.

I spend a lot of my time working on my systems. Good systems or process makes for high efficiency. Hence the continual quest for improvement.

A good book on distribution is "Free, Perfect and Now" by my aquantance Rob Rodin who used to run an electronics distributor. He speaks of changing culture within a distribution company and the challenges of it. The title says it all. The customers want it "free, perfect and now" every time. It is our job to deliver that.

He knows it is culture that allows a distributor to thrive long term and also knows how easy it is for the culture to change in small ways over time so profitability and even survival are at stake. Good book worth reading if you are in distribution.

Now I go focus on the little things and ponder the culture we need for long term success.

Capitalizing on opportunity in the New Economy.......2005-04-05

Throughout Byvation I've talked about how the customer is king. With the advent of the internet, this is even more true today. Throughout the book, Rodin shows why it's important to adapt to the New Economy. With the dot-com bust behind us, the business world is back in swing with using the internet as a strategic tool to serve the customer.

Whether you're actively engaged in e-commerce, e-business, or even building a full-fledged e-community; Free, Perfect, and Now holds invaluable lessons for adapting to and capitalizing on opportunity in the New Economy.

Robert Rodin shows you how to prepare for the three insatiable demands of today's customers: they want their product (or service) FREE, they want it PERFECT, and they want it NOW. No matter what business you're in, you have to find a way to respond, or risk losing your customers to competitors who are discovering new ways to sell your product cheaper, better, and faster than you've ever imagined.

Highly Recommended!.......2001-08-17

Marshall Industries was in trouble, facing the pressures of modernization and internal discord. Today, it is an effective Internet-adapted company. CEO Rob Rodin (with writer Curtis Hartman) explains how he transformed his firm. He tells his personal story, including how he recognized the need for dramatic change, and planned and implemented a strategy. This excellent book tracks his saga and discusses general principles and how-to tips leaders can apply to create effective change. This isn't just another leadership book. Rodin involves you in his personal story. He candidly outlines the difficulties he faced in his company when he tried to get everyone involved in his transformation mission. The book captures a spirit of suspense (rare in business writing). You want to know what will happen next because it is well crafted and dramatic. We [...] recommend this engaging read to those involved in leadership, change, and strategy issues, or anyone who enjoys a page-turner.

A Visionary Leader.......2000-09-19

Robert Rodin stands as a perfect example of what it takes to make it in the New Economy. Facing adversity and change, he never lost sight of his ultimate goal. What a great story of changing business strategies to compete in the market today. I think everyone would benefit from reading this true story instead of a story of future promises or predictions.

An Epiphany Read.......2000-09-13

A been there and done that accounting of how an old economy company became a leader in the new economy by turning the old rules on their heads. It is not filled with tech speak or jargon, just real life recounting of how one committed comfortable group changed their entire business to the benefit or all stakeholders. If you have any dreams or desires to become an internet entrepreneur or want to turn your existing enterprise into a world class customer focused organization this should be on your desk. I recommend it to all members of my team and they have had the same reaction.

Book Description

In recent decades historians have become increasingly aware of the value of prosopography as an auxiliary science standing at the crossroads between anthropology, genealogy, demography and social history. It is now developing as an independent research discipline of real benefit to medievalists. The geographically and chronologically wide-ranging subjects of the essays in this collection, by scholars from the British Isles and the Continent, are united by a common theme, namely the significance of genealogy and kinship ties in determining political events in the middle ages. The papers, including a review of the history of prosopography and some of its major successes as a method by Karl Ferdinand Werner, range from general considerations of prosopographical and genealogical methodology (including discussion of Anglo-Norman royal charters) to specific analyses of individual political and kinship groups (including the genealogy of the counts of Anjou and a rehabilitation of the prosopographical material in Wace's Roman de Rou). The main geographic focus is England and France from the tenth to the twelfth centuries, but other areas as diverse as Celtic Ireland and the Latin Principality of Antioch also come under prosopographical scrutiny. Contributors: DAVID E. THORNTON, ANNE WILLIAMS, C.P. LEWIS, DAVID BATES, ELISABETH VAN HOUTS, EMMA COWNIE, JUDITH GREEN, JOHN S. MOORE, K.S.B. KEATS-ROHAN, CHRISTIAN SETTIPANI, HUBERT GUILLOTEL, KATHLEEN THOMPSON, VERONIQUE GAZEAU, MICHEL BUR, ALAN V. MURRAY, DANIEL POWER.

Important essay collection in a growing field.......2005-07-08

Some thirty years ago, prosopography began to be used as a tool in the study of history, especially medieval European and Byzantine history. Concentration, naturally, has centered on the wealthy and powerful because that's who created the surviving records. The seventeen papers in this collection (five of them in French) were read at a conference at Oxford in 1995, and one of the most important is "L'apport de la prosopographie à l'histoire sociale des élites" by Karl Ferdinand Werner, one of the principal founders of the field. Others of special note include David E. Thornton's "Kings, Chronicles and Genealogies: Reconstructing Mediaeval Celtic Dynasties," Christian Settipani's "Les comtes d'Anjou et leurs alliances aux Xe et XIe siècles," and "The Formation of the County of Perche: the Rise and Fall of the House of Gouet," by Kathleen Thompson. Boydell Press, incidentally, has made a niche for itself in publishing works on the subject of prosopography.

Book Description

"...this carefully documented study...admirably demonstrates how the Soviet view of the Third World has evolved from relatively simplistic and optimistic ideas in the 1950s and 60s to more realistic and pessimistic appraisals more recently." New York Times Book Review "...very sensible and balanced....One can only end by urging anyone interested in the subject to read this book, not only because of the richness of its source materials but also because it is well and clearly written."--Soviet Studies
