In 1904, Bock published a 30-page book "The Truth about Havana Cigars."＜/p＞ ＜p＞Bock and his company were the first manufacturers to develop the now famous tobacco-growing section known as Remates in the Vuelta Abajo district of Cuba, where they held extensive farms.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It was from a special blend consisting chiefly of this tobacco that Senor Bock first discovered the possibility of producing cigars, which, while very mild, carried a fine flavor and aroma that would satisfy and yet not satiate. On the success of his work along this line it is needless to elaborate. The Bock cigars were well known as a standard of excellence throughout the smoking world prior to the Cuban Revolution.＜br /＞ Senor Bock as managing director in Havana naturally took especial pride in caring for the great factory, the product of which bore his name.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In introducing his book, Bock writes:＜/p＞ ＜p＞"In Having, during a residence on this Island of forty-six years, devoted all my time to discovering, to the minutest detail, the best method for the production of the highest quality of Havana Cigars, I respectfully submit the following pages to all intelligent smokers of good cigars. The cigars manufactured under my personal direction in the twenty-three factories controlled by the Havana Tobacco Company cannot be equaled in character, in quality or in workmanship by any other cigars in the world."＜/p＞ ＜p＞Contents＜br /＞ ?

＜p＞In the old days, when we made physical products, setting project goals wasn't that hard. But in today's service - and software-driven world, "done" is less obvious. When is Amazon done? When is Google done? Or Facebook? In reality, services powered by digital systems are never done. So then how do we give teams a goal that they can work on? Mostly, we simply ask teams to build features - but features are the wrong way to go. We often build features that create no value. Instead, we need to give teams an outcome to achieve.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Using outcomes creates focus and alignment. It eliminates needless work. And it puts the customer at the center of everything you do. Setting goals as outcomes sounds simple, but it can be hard to do in practice.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Privileged Addict Quotes【電子書籍】[ Charles A. Peabody ]

＜p＞To truly understand addiction and recovery, we must step outside the box of the status quo and challenge conventional wisdom. We must look deep within and challenge ourselves. We must observe reality and see things as they are. Addiction and alcoholism will contort and confuse the mind of not only an addict, but a sane loved one just the same, so this collection of ideas, concepts, passages and quotes from my years of writing about addiction is for both fellow addicts and the countless loved ones out there who have stuck by us and loved us unconditionally while we remained preoccupied with ourselves and our comfort. This book should help take what is a dark and painful subject and shine a light on it. Needless to say, these are just words on a page and can never be equated with pure action. We must not simply read but must work hard if we are to effect real and lasting change, if we are to build an inner reservoir of peace and strength, if we are to achieve escape velocity and enter a new world of freedom.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Economics of Innocent Fraud Truth For Our Time【電子書籍】[ John Kenneth Galbraith ]

＜p＞John Kenneth Galbraith has long been at the center of American economics, in key positions of responsibility during the New Deal, World War II, and since, guiding policy and debate. His trenchant new book distills this lifetime of experience in the public and private sectors; it is a scathing critique of matters as they stand today.＜br /＞ Sounding the alarm about the increasing gap between reality and "conventional wisdom" -- a phrase he coined -- Galbraith tells, along with much else, how we have reached a point where the private sector has unprecedented control over the public sector. We have given ourselves over to self-serving belief and "contrived nonsense" or, more simply, fraud. This has come at the expense of the economy, effective government, and the business world.＜br /＞ Particularly noted is the central power of the corporation and the shift in authority from shareholders and board members to management. In an intense exercise of fraud, the pretense of shareholder power is still maintained, even with the immediate participants. In fact, because of the scale and complexity of the modern corporation, decisive power must go to management. From management and its own inevitable self-interest, power extends deeply into government -- the so-called public sector. This is particularly and dangerously the case in such matters as military policy, the environment, and, needless to say, taxation. Nevertheless, there remains the firm reference to the public sector.＜br /＞ How can fraud be innocent? In his inimitable style, Galbraith offers the answer. His taut, wry, and severe comment is essential reading for everyone who cares about America's future. This book is especially relevant in an election year, but it deeply concerns the much longer future.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Joy at Work A Revolutionary Approach To Fun on the Job【電子書籍】[ Dennis W. Bakke ]

＜p＞Imagine a company where people love coming to work and are highly productive on a daily basis. Imagine a company whose top executives, in a quest to create the most "fun" workplace ever, obliterate labor-management divisions and push decision-making responsibility down to the plant floor. Could such a company compete in today's bottom-line corporate world? Could it even turn a profit? Well, imagine no more.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞Joy at Work＜/em＞, Dennis W. Bakke tells the true story of this extraordinary company--and how, as its co-founder and longtime CEO, he challenged the business establishment with revolutionary ideas that could remake America's organizations. It is the story of AES, whose business model and operating ethos -"let's have fun"-were conceived during a 90-minute car ride from Annapolis, Maryland, to Washington, D.C. In the next two decades, it became a worldwide energy giant with 40,000 employees in 31 countries and revenues of $8.6 billion. It's a remarkable tale told by a remarkable man: Bakke, a farm boy who was shaped by his religious faith, his years at Harvard Business School, and his experience working for the Federal Energy Administration. He rejects workplace drudgery as a noxious remnant of the Industrial Revolution. He believes work should be fun, and at AES he set out to prove it could be. Bakke sought not the empty "fun" of the Friday beer blast but the joy of a workplace where every person, from custodian to CEO, has the power to use his or her God-given talents free of needless corporate bureaucracy.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞Joy at Work＜/em＞, Bakke tells how he helped create a company where every decision made at the top was lamented as a lost chance to delegate responsibility--and where all employees were encouraged to take the "game-winning shot," even when it wasn't a slam-dunk. Perhaps Bakke's most radical stand was his struggle to break the stranglehold of "creating shareholder value" on the corporate mind-set and replace it with more timeless values: integrity, fairness, social responsibility, and a sense of fun.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Merger Mindset How to Get It Right in the High-Stakes World of Mergers, Acquisitions, and Divestitures【電子書籍】[ Constance Dierickx ]

＜p＞＜em＞Breaking Up Is Hard to Do＜/em＞ offers a unique perspective for leadersーthose executives whose companies, reputations, and futures will thrive or fail because of a deal or a series of deals. This book for leaders helps decision-makers deal with the powerful undercurrents and interpersonal dynamics at play in every deal, and no one is more qualified to write it than Constance Dierickx and Linda Henman.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Other books on mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures overwhelmingly have one characteristic in common: they’re technical. Attorneys write books about the legal and contractual aspects of deals; project management experts write from the point of view of managing tasks and schedules; and investment bankers write about valuation and negotiation. ＜em＞Breaking Up Is Hard to Do＜/em＞ presents an amalgamation of what Drs. Dierickx and Henman have observedーand in many cases, helped to createーin more than 65 cumulative years of consulting with Fortune 500 companies, privately-held firms, family-owned businesses, and military organizations. Their in-the-trenches experiences spurred them to arrive at this premise: To position their organizations for more success, leaders can’t shy away from the high stakes, tough decisions about their futures.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book maps the key steps in the M & A journey. It takes the reader through how to make the decision to grow acquisitively, identify roadblocks and typical wrong turns, and ultimately shows how to unlock their decision-making potential while navigating an increasingly uncertain world. Through compelling stories and surprising research findings, readers will discover that there’s much more to the decision-making that drives M & A deals than they ever imagined, and they will come away with tools to help them deepen their understanding of what it takes to succeed. A fascinating read, the text weaves lessons that surface from the stories with highly pragmatic advice about suggested mindset, checklists, processes, and diagnostic tools. Readers will understand that while M & A deals aren’t simple, leaders don’t have to overly complicate them either. Instead, they can simplify the process if they remember hope shouldn’t serve as a strategy, and they can’t abdicate or delegate their leadership responsibilities.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The lessons from mergers and acquisitions are critical to those considering a deal, but applied elsewhere, they have equal value, even though noticing them takes more effort. This is the essence of leadership: doing the hard work of ensuring that the gulf between strategy and tactics does not lead to either over simplification or needless complexity.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Brand New Nigeria Developing the nation by building brands【電子書籍】[ Tayo Abobarin ]

＜p＞The picture my brain-brush was painting on the canvas of my imagination was more like a deep green woven basket with a plain white ribbon delicately tied around it. Now you ask, what's a basket got to do with Nigeria?＜/p＞ ＜p＞If you have ever made, bought or received a hamper, then you would understand the value of the basket. Sometimes people continue to use these baskets years after receiving the hampers. Needless to say that even before it was bought, the basket was a major determinant of the price or value of the hamper. However, the green basket in my daydream was not meant to be filled with wines, cornflakes or candy bars. It is a symbol of a Nigerian business with a purpose, owned by an entrepreneur who understands the principles of style and substance as it applies to his/her audience.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This delicately woven, experience defined?and open minded container has developed the capacity to sieve unwanted influences and present with professionalism, a well packaged product or service which is not only pleasant to behold, but as well, easy to understand and in every way, functional. This container could however be a business or the entrepreneur, together with?their content and the perception they attract, we have a BRAND.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Does it have to be a green basket? Yes! Every success story has a geographical origin. The men who built America did not do it with blocks and mortar, they did by building successful enterprises. Our primary responsibility as Nigerian entrepreneurs is not just to make money, but to build businesses that will endure. Even our children will forever be grateful for that kind of gift. When we have enough people with a mindset and determination to create enduring brands, then we would look around and discover we are in the Promised Land, only to realize it was the same land we built with our own hands - a BRAND new NIGERIA.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】High Wire The Precarious Financial Lives of American Families【電子書籍】[ Peter Gosselin ]

＜p＞The U.S. economy is wrapping up twenty-five years of some of the strongest, smoothest growth in its history-a performance so sweet economists have given it a name: "the Great Moderation." So why have so many of us, even those making hundreds of thousands of dollars, arrived at the new century with a gnawing sense that events are moving against our families and ourselves? The easy answer is that we're suffering a case of needless anxiety. But the easy answer is wrong. Drawing on interviews with hundreds of Americans and new statistics he developed, Peter Gosselin traces a quarter-century shift of economic risk from the broad shoulders of business and government to the backs of working people. It is a shift that has shaken the pillars of most families' lives-stable jobs, solid benefits, government protections. The change doesn't mean one can't prosper. But it does mean the benefits of growth come at greater peril and your financial fall will be steeper if you stumble. This threat to working Americans' security-and what to do about it-is a pressing concern to economists, policy-makers, and everyone who works for a living.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The American Health Care Paradox Why Spending More is Getting Us Less【電子書籍】[ Elizabeth H. Bradley ]

＜p＞＜strong＞Foreword by Harvey V. Fineberg, President of the Institute of Medicine＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞For decades, experts have puzzled over why the US spends more on health care but suffers poorer outcomes than other industrialized nations. Now Elizabeth H. Bradley and Lauren A. Taylor marshal extensive research, including a comparative study of health care data from thirty countries, and get to the root of this paradox: We've left out of our tally the most impactful expenditures countries make to improve the health of their populations-investments in social services.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞The American Health Care Paradox＜/em＞, Bradley and Taylor illuminate how narrow definitions of "health care," archaic divisions in the distribution of health and social services, and our allergy to government programs combine to create needless suffering in individual lives, even as health care spending continues to soar. They show us how and why the US health care "system" developed as it did; examine the constraints on, and possibilities for, reform; and profile inspiring new initiatives from around the world.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Offering a unique and clarifying perspective on the problems the Affordable Care Act won't solve, this book also points a new way forward.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Road to Wisdom On Truth, Science, Faith, and Trust【電子書籍】[ Francis S. Collins ]

＜p＞**A 2025 Nautilus Book Awards Gold Winner＜/p＞ ＜p＞From “national treasure” Francis Collins (Philip Yancey), the ＜em＞New York Times＜/em＞ bestselling author of ＜em＞The Language of God＜/em＞ and former director of the National Institutes of Health, comes a deeply thoughtful guidebook to get us beyond societal divisions and back to the sources of wisdomー"**＜strong＞the sort that can save us before it is too late” (Jane Goodall).＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞As the COVID-19 pandemic revealed, we have become not just a hyper-partisan society but also a deeply cynical one, distrustful of traditional sources of knowledge and wisdom. Skepticism about vaccines led to the needless deaths of at least 230,000 Americans. “Do your own research” is now a rallying cry in many online rabbit holes. Yet experts can make mistakes, and institutions can lose their moral compass. So how can we navigate through all this?＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞The Road to Wisdom＜/em＞, Francis Collins reminds us of the four core sources of judgement and clear thinking: truth, science, faith, and trust. Drawing on his work from the Human Genome Project and heading the National Institutes of Health, as well as on ethics, philosophy, and Christian theology, Collins makes a robust, thoughtful case for each of these sourcesーtheir reliability, and their limits. Ultimately, he shows how they work together, not separatelyーand certainly not in conflict. It is only when we relink these four foundations of wisdom that we can begin to discern the best path forward in life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Thoughtful, accessible, winsome, and deeply wise, ＜em＞The Road to Wisdom＜/em＞ leads us beyond current animosities to surer footing. Here is the moral, philosophical, and scientific framework with which to address the problems of our timeーincluding distrust of public health, partisanship, racism, response to climate change, and threats to our democracyーbut also to guide us in our daily lives. This is a book that will repay many readings, and resolve dilemmas that we all face every day.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】''The Book of Dad'' "Quotes for a Lifetime of Wisdom"【電子書籍】[ Robert A. A. Benson ]

＜p＞My motivation for this collaboration is trying to be the best parent I possibly can. Meeting this end has been challenging because of the professions I have been evolved with, the ages of my children and frankly my inability to consistently calmly get them to understand what I want to tell them. Dont get me wrong, the difficulty doesnt stem from their deficiencies, rather mine.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I spent exactly 24 years and one month in the United States Air Force. I have been retired for about six years and have been a teacher (still teach college courses), and a councilor at a university. Currently, I am in the aviation management profession. Over the years I have been married twice and fathered three children. My daughter, Erica, 27 born in Columbus Mississippi; my oldest son Ulon "Marcus", 19 at Terrejon Air Base near Madrid, Spain; and my youngest son Robert A. "Drew" in Warner Robins, Georgia. The love I have for these three is unlike any other love I have for anyone else.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I can remember what I believed was a near death experience. As far as I know I may have died; all I remember is that I had a severe sinus problem and could not breathe. While sleeping I stopped breathing. I remember being surrounded and subdued by many, I could not move, somehow I knew that there was a higher power over me, and that I was not dreaming. After a bit I heard this calming but firm voice tell me to always be good to your children. Once the voice spoke to me, the people who were holding me down let me go, and then I suddenly jumped up. I still had major difficulty breathing, at any rate that was what I considered my calling at the time. Needless to say, I havent always met with that mandate.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Through out my career during and after the military, I have spent more time than I care to admit away from my family. Without getting into specifics, I have been relegated to minimal communication with them. To compensate for my lack of presence, I started sending them daily text messages. I did this for the better part of a year. Then one day I look at the work I did and decided to publish these quotes into a memoir that may serve to help others in the same predicament.＜/p＞ ＜p＞These quotes are encouraged by my life experiences and observation of the experiences and situations my children are currently involved in. I have written hundreds however, this book will only list 200 of them. I hope you enjoy them as much as I was inspired to write them.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Indeed, aging is often due to unsuspected deficiencies that can be readily corrected, and even people in their sixties, seventies and eighties can turn back the clock and recover their youth.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Leading scientists have found that:＜/p＞ ＜p＞Vitamins can prevent and reverse memory loss and other signs of aging.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Vitamins and minerals can rejuvenate immune functions, restoring youthful resistance to infections and cancer.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Antioxidants in foods and supplements can help prevent clogged arteries, heart attacks and general bodily deterioration.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Many unfamiliar but readily available food chemicals can prolong life and preserve your vitality.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞This book addresses the paradox between preponderance of hunger in a continent that is well endowed with fertile agricultural land, plenty of fresh water and a vibrant labor force. As some statistics show, close to 60% of arable land in the world is located in Africa which also has several rivers flowing in all seasons and plenty of underground water. The bulk of its labor force thrives on agriculture, yet the continent’s largest import item is food. 23 of 36 the most malnourished countries also belong in Africa. This has caused significant needless human suffering.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book goes beyond providing the traditional framework of supplying policy recommendations to delivering an applied, innovative framework upon which policymakers, the private sector and international institutions can take clear and deliberate action to stimulate Africa's agricultural sector, thus responding to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】How to Improve Our Standard of Living by Understanding Basic Economics This book makes common sense of economics and explains it in plain and simple terms that everyone can understand so we will be better off creating our well-being and 【電子書籍】

＜p＞＜strong＞Need to Improve Our Standard of Living ? Then Reading This Book＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Our standard of living has a lot to do with economics, especially our family’s financial situation. We must understand basic economics and use it to create our well-being and become wealthier.＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞The reader, either a student or a non-student of economics, are suggested to make use of this information and decide to how the reader wants to see the better life from here on out. Most importantly, the book will help the reader improving the well-being and becoming wealthier.＜/p＞ ＜p＞To those students who did learn economics from school, many of them might forget that they should learn it to apply the knowledge to their own benefit. In the real, practical world, most people are not aware that they are part of economics and economics influence them daily in everything that they do and decide. Economics deal with human welfare, thereby directly impacting our well-being and/or our standard of living. Hence, it is important for everyone to know this information and make use of it to their best benefit.＜/p＞ ＜p＞We always heard from several media regarding economics. How cheap or how expensive some specific goods or services are. What the worth of our country’s currency is to exchange with other country’s currency. What our government decides to do about their budget, monitor inflation, and adjust interest rate. ＜/p＞ ＜p＞When listening to and reading about economic matter from media, most of the time, we feel as if we have been excluded out of these expert groups of people. They use a highly technical language that makes great sense to them but we cannot make any meaningful sense out of it. Needless to say that we are many times being intimidated with that information. Having understood the basic information from this book, we will be comfortable and enjoy reading or listening more and more of what all these experts have to say or write. ＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this book, we will, at the least, answer the following questions. What is economics and what are influence factors to economics? What is the effect of market competition on individual or family household units? What is Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and why is it related to our productivity? What are inflation and deflation and how are they impacting us? Is there any relation between inflation and interest rate? Why have we been charged with a high interest rate and how much worth on our hard earning money after all? What are an unemployment rate and its impact? Are they any correlation between our wage and unemployment rate? What has this unemployment rate to do with inflation and our labor market? How does the government involve in the economy? What are fiscal and monetary policies? What is the role of central bank? How do the government policies impact us? How is globalization involving and effecting on us? Finally, how can we create wealth and living better at the bottom line?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
