The Moonstone - Wilkie Collins

The Moonstone is one of the first true works of detective fiction, in which Wilkie Collins established the groundwork for the genre itself. This Penguin Classics edition is edited with an introduction by Sandra Kemp.The Moonstone, a priceless yellow diamond, is looted from an Indian temple and maliciously bequeathed to Rachel Verinder. On her eighteenth birthday, her friend and suitor Franklin Blake brings the gift to her. That very night, it is stolen again. No one is above suspicion, as the idiosyncratic Sergeant Cuff and the Franklin piece together a puzzling series of events as mystifying as an opium dream and as deceptive as the nearby Shivering Sand. The intricate plot and modern technique of multiple narrators made Wilkie Collins s 1868 work a huge success in the Victorian sensation genre. With a reconstruction of the crime, red herrings and a locked-room puzzle, The Moonstone was also a major precursor of the modern mystery novel.In her introduction Sandra Kemp explores The Moonstone s the detective elements of Collins s writing, and reveals how Collins s sensibilities were untypical of his era.Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was born in London in 1824, the eldest son of the landscape painter William Collins. In 1846 he was entered to read for the bar at Lincoln s Inn, where he gained the knowledge that was to give him much of the material for his writing. From the early 1850s he was a friend of Charles Dickens, who produced and acted in two melodramas written by Collins, The Lighthouse and The Frozen Deep. Of his novels, Collins is best remembered for The Woman in White (1859), No Name (1862), Armadale (1866) and The Moonstone (1868).If you enjoyed The Moonstone you might like Collins s The Woman in White, also available in Penguin Classics. Probably the very finest detective story ever written Dorothy L. Sayers The first, the longest and the best of modern modern English detective novels T.S. Eliot

No Name - Wilkie Collins

A witty, intricately-plotted exploration of a sudden fall from grace, the Penguin Classics edition of Wilkie Collins s No Name is edited with an introduction and notes by Mark Ford.Magdalen and her sister Norah, beloved daughters of Mr and Mrs Vanstone, find themselves the victims of a catastrophic oversight. Their father has neglected to change his will, and when the girls are suddenly orphaned, their inheritance goes to their uncle. Now penniless, the conventional Norah takes up a position as a governess, but the defiant and tempestuous Magdalen cannot accept the loss of what is rightfully hers and decides to do whatever she can to win it back. With the help of cunning Captain Wragge, she concocts a scheme that involves disguise, deceit and astonishing self-transformation. In this compelling, labyrinthine story Wilkie Collins brilliantly demonstrates the gap between justice and the law, and in the subversive Magdalen he portrays one of the most exhilarating heroines of Victorian fiction.In his introduction Mark Ford examines themes of identity and illegitimacy within Victorian society and compares No Name to Collins s more sensational fiction. This edition also includes notes and a bibliography.Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was born in London in 1824, the eldest son of the landscape painter William Collins.

Great by Choice - Jim Collins, Morten T. Hansen

THE NEW QUESTIONTen years after the worldwide bestseller Good to Great, Jim Collins returns with another groundbreaking work, this time to ask: Why do some companies thrive in uncertainty, even chaos, and others do not? Based on nine years of research, buttressed by rigorous analysis and infused with engaging stories, Collins and his colleague, Morten Hansen, enumerate the principles for building a truly great enterprise in unpredictable, tumultuous, and fast-moving times.THE NEW STUDY Great by Choice distinguishes itself from Collins s prior work by its focus not just on performance, but also on the type of unstable environments faced by leaders today. With a team of more than twenty researchers, Collins and Hansen studied companies that rose to greatness - beating their industry indexes by a minimum of ten times over fifteen years - in environments characterized by big forces and rapid shifts that leaders could not predict or control. The research team then contrasted these 10X companies to a carefully selected set of comparison companies that failed to achieve greatness in similarly extreme environments.THE NEW FINDINGSThe study results were full of provocative surprises. Such as: * The best leaders were not more risk taking, more visionary, and more creative than the comparisons; they were more disciplined, more empirical, and more paranoid.* Innovation by itself turns out not to be the trump card in a chaotic and uncertain world; more important is the ability to scale innovation, to blend creativity with discipline.* Following the belief that leading in a fast world always requires fast decisions and fast action is a good way to get killed.* The great companies changed less in reaction to a radically changing world than the comparison companies.The authors challenge conventional wisdom with thought-provoking, sticky, and supremely practical concepts. They include 10Xers; the 20 Mile March; Fire Bullets then Cannonballs; Leading above the Death Line; Zoom Out, Then Zoom In; and the SMaC Recipe. Finally, in the last chapter, Collins and Hansen present their most provocative and original analysis: defining, quantifying, and studying the role of luck. The great companies and the leaders who built them were not luckier than the comparisons, but they did get a higher Return on Luck. This book is classic Collins: contrarian, data driven, and uplifting. He and Hansen show convincingly that, even in a chaotic and uncertain world, greatness happens by choice, not by chance.

Beyond Entrepreneurship 2.0 - Jim Collins

______________________________THE BOOK THAT REED HASTINGS AT NETFLIX TOLD EVERY ASPIRING CEO TO READNearly thirty years ago, Stanford University faculty members Jim Collins and Bill Lazier showed you how to turn an entrepreneurial business into an enduring great company.Beyond Entrepreneurship became a leadership staple, particularly among small and early-stage companies. And while Collins would go on to write a series of famous bestsellers that have sold more than ten million copies worldwide, this lesser-known early work remains the favourite of many of his loyal readers.Now, with Beyond Entrepreneurship 2.0, Collins re-shares the timeless insights in Beyond Entrepreneurship alongside new perspectives gleaned after decades of additional research into what makes great companies tick. In Beyond Entrepreneurship 2.0, you ll learn how to turn your company into the 2.0 version of itself. You ll be challenged to grow your own leadership as your company grows, from 1x to 2x to 5x to 10x. You ll learn Collins s newest reflections on people decisions, insights that extend beyond his seminal first who principle about getting the right people on the bus. You ll learn why luck favours the persistent, and what it means to look for who luck. You ll learn about the origins of the BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal), and why even a small business needs a galvanising BHAG to have a complete and inspiring vision.You ll also unlock what Collins calls The Map. The Map is a road map that pulls together the key concepts developed from thirty years of research and writing into one integrated framework for building a company that delivers superior results, makes a distinctive impact, and achieves lasting endurance.Finally, you ll learn the lessons that Jim Collins himself learned from the most influential mentor in his life, Bill Lazier.Beyond Entrepreneurship 2.0 is the ambitious upgrade to a classic. In Beyond Entrepreneurship 2.0, you ll discover that the goal to turn your business into an enduring great company is as relevant - and as within your reach - as ever.

Michael Collins and the Women Who Spied For Ireland - Meda Ryan

Michael Collins and the Women Who Spied for Ireland is the first book to concentrate on the crucial role played by women in Collins s personal and working life. From his boyhood in an overwhelmingly female household in West Cork, women brought out the best in him and he brought out the best in them. Susan Killeen, his first girlfriend, remained a steadfast ally throughout his life. From 1917, his girlfriend, Madeline (Dilly) Dicker, helped to ease the burden of his huge workload as well as acting as a secret agent. Society ladies Moya Llewelyn Davies and Lady Hazel Lavery were conduits between Collins and the British Establishment and active participants in his work of espionage. In the final years of his life the true romantic passion between him and Kitty Kiernan is testified to by their frequent correspondence.These women, and many others who participated in the national struggle, women such as Kathleen Clarke, Leslie Price, Peg Barrett, Nancy O Brien, Madge Hales and Collins sister Mary Collins Powell, are woven into this fascinating narrative of Collins life.

Zároveň je však i zakladatelem Irské republikánské armády (IRA), který zároveň stál u zrodu jejích teroristických praktik... Režisér Neil Jordan si pro titulní roli vybral Liama Neesona, který postavě Michaela Collinse dokázal vtisknout rozměr nespoutané touhy po svobodě, jakož i věčné dramatické napětí, oscilující mezi individuálními a celospolečenskými zájmy. Jeho osud je ve svém tragickém vyznění až příliš podobný všem ostatním osobnostem, které i za cenu nejvyšší posouvaly vývoj dějin kupředu.Bonusy:• Komentář Neila Jordana• Na slovíčko s Neilem Jordanem• Vystřižené scény• Trailer• The South Bank Show Rozhovor s Neilem Jordanem a záběry skutečného Michaela Collinse – dokument

How the Mighty Fall - Jim Collins

Decline can be avoided. Decline can be detected. Decline can be reversed.Amidst the desolate landscape of fallen great companies, Jim Collins began to wonder: How do the mighty fall? Can decline be detected early and avoided? How far can a company fall before the path toward doom becomes inevitable and unshakable? How can companies reverse course?In How the Mighty Fall, Collins confronts these questions, offering leaders the well-founded hope that they can learn how to stave off decline and, if they find themselves falling, reverse their course. Collins research project-more than four years in duration-uncovered five step-wise stages of decline: Stage 1: Hubris Born of SuccessStage 2: Undisciplined Pursuit of MoreStage 3: Denial of Risk and PerilStage 4: Grasping for SalvationStage 5: Capitulation to Irrelevance or DeathBy understanding these stages of decline, leaders can substantially reduce their chances of falling all the way to the bottom. Great companies can stumble, badly, and recover.Every institution, no matter how great, is vulnerable to decline. There is no law of nature that the most powerful will inevitably remain at the top. Anyone can fall and most eventually do.But, as Collins research emphasizes, some companies do indeed recover-in some cases, coming back even stronger-even after having crashed into the depths of Stage 4. Decline, it turns out, is largely self-inflicted, and the path to recovery lies largely within our own hands. We are not imprisoned by our circumstances, our history, or even our staggering defeats along the way.As long as we never get entirely knocked out of the game, hope always remains. The mighty can fall, but they can often rise again.

Water, Water - Billy Collins

Among the best poems that Collins has ever written â “ NPRIn Water, Water Billy Collins writes with joy and wonder about the beauties and ironies of everyday life. The best poems, he believes, begin in clarity and end with a hint of the sublime: A cat learns to drink from a swimming pool. An astronaut recites Emily Dickinson in space. Here is a writer devotedly in love with the world around him, fascinated by its pleasures but generously sensitive of its pains.Ever a laureate of the oblique, Collins is especially sensitive to disappearances and acts of concealment, sketching objects by the outlines their absence leaves: â ˜Everything in this hard placeâ ™, reflects one voice in â ˜Crying in Classâ ™, â ˜is designed to disappear.â ™ From griefâ ™s soft echoes, to the atheist equally afraid of heaven and hell, Collins remains as keenly vigilant of the light as he does the shadows which dance at its edges.â ˜A poet of plenitude, irony, and Augustan graceâ ™ The New Yorker Witty, wry and tender when it hurts, Water, Water is a pleasure to read and easy to give â “ The Washington Post

The Moonstone - Wilkie Collins

Who, in the name of wonder, had taken the Moonstone out of Miss Rachel s drawer?A celebrated Indian yellow diamond is first stolen from India, then vanishes from a Yorkshire country house. Who took it? And where is it now? A dramatist as well as a novelist, Wilkie Collins gives to each of his narratorsa household servant, a detective, a lawyer, a cloth-eared Evangelical, a dying medical manvibrant identities as they separately tell the part of the story that concerns themselves.One of the great triumphs of nineteenth-century sensation fiction, The Moonstone tells of a mystery that for page after page becomes more, not less inexplicable. Collins s novel of addictions is itself addictive, moving through a sequence of startling revelations towards the final disclosure of the truth. Entranced with double lives, with men and women who only know part of the story, Collins weaves their narratives into a web of suspense. The Moonstone is a text that grows imaginatively out of the secrets that the unconventional Collins was obliged to keep as he wrote the novel.

Man and Wife - Wilkie Collins

`This time the fiction is founded upon facts stated Wilkie Collins in his Preface to Man and Wife (1870). Many Victorian writers responded to contemporary debates on the rights and the legal status of women, and here Collins questions the deeply inequitable marriage laws of his day. Man and Wife examines the plight of a woman who, promised marriage by one man, comes to believe that she may inadvertently have gone through a form of marriage with his friend, as recognized by the archaic laws of Scotland and Ireland. From this starting-point Collins develops a radical critique of the values and conventions of Victorian society. Collins had already developed a reputation as the master of the `sensation novel , and Man and Wife is as fast moving and unpredictable as The Moonstone and The Woman in White. During the novel the atmosphere grows increasingly sinister as the setting moves from a country house to a London suburb and a world of confinement, plotting, and murder. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Primary Huh: Curriculum conversations with subject leaders in primary schools - John Tomsett, Mary Myatt

Thereâ ™s plenty to do when planning the curriculum in primary schools. If it feels daunting, then one of the most helpful things is to talk to other people about how they have developed the curriculum for their particular subject or key stage.This is what John Tomsett and Mary Myatt have done. After the secondary â ˜Huh: Curriculum conversations between subject and senior leadersâ ™ was published, they were flooded with requests to produce a primary version. They enlisted the help of renowned primary specialists, Rachel Higginson, Lekha Sharma and Emma Turner to have conversations with primary teachers and key stage co-ordinators who are doing great curriculum development work.Each chapter provides insights into the importance of individual subjects and the unique contribution each makes to pupilsâ ™ cognitive and personal development. The subject chapters discuss the steps colleagues take to ensure that there is a coherent thread across the year groups, as the discrete subjects deliver, collectively, the primary curriculum. These conversations show how the craft of creating a rich, challenging curriculum for every subject is not a quick fix. This is a nuanced piece of work, and there are many ways of approaching it. Each chapter also contains links to subject associations and helpful resources. Primary Huh has been written for subject leaders and key stage co-ordinators; it has also been written for senior leaders, as they prepare to have supportive conversations with their colleagues who are responsible for curriculum development. Primary Huh is offered as a prompt rather than the last word. Informed debate is, as they say, the fuel of curriculum development.And why have John and Mary called it â ˜Huhâ ™? Well, John discovered that Huh is the Egyptian god of endlessness, creativity, fertility and regeneration, and they thought that was a pretty good metaphor for their work on the curriculum!

Jak z dobré firmy udělat skvělou - Jim Collins

Existují společnosti, které navzdory těžkostem přemění dlouhodobě průměrný či ještě horší výkon na dlouhodobě skvělé výsledky? A pokud ano, jaké jsou univerzální určující vlastnosti, které způsobí, že se společnost změní z dobré ve skvělou? Za použití přísných testů určil Jim Collins a jeho výzkumný tým elitní skupinu společností, kterým se podařilo začít dosahovat skvělých výkonů a tyto skvělé výkony si udržet po dobu minimálně patnácti let. Jak byly skvělé? Po své transformaci vytvářely tyto firmy kumulované výnosy akcií, které překonávaly běžný akciový trh za patnáct let v průměru sedminásobně, což je dvakrát více, než společný výkon největších světových společností, jako např. Coca-Cola, Intel, General Electric a Merck. Výzkumný tým porovnával firmy, které se z dobrých staly skvělými, s pečlivě vybranou skupinou porovnávaných společností, kterým se přeměna z dobrých na skvělé nepodařila. V čem byl rozdíl? Proč se jedné skupině podařilo stát se skvělou, zatímco d ruhá skupina zůstala jenom dobrá? Výzkumný tým analyzoval historii všech osmadvaceti společností ve studii celých pět let. Po prozkoumání ohromného množství dat a tisíců stran rozhovorů objevil Jim Collins a jeho tým rozhodující faktory pro úspěšnou přeměnu dobrého ve skvělé - proč některé společnosti udělají velký skok vpřed a jiné ne. Poznatky zjištěné ve studii budou pro mnohé překvapením. Vrhají světlo na prakticky všechny oblasti manažerské strategie a praxe. Klíčové poznatky: Vůdcové 5. úrovně: Výzkumný tým šokovalo zjištění, jaký typ vůdce je potřebný k dosažení skvělosti. Ježčí koncepce (jednoduchost v rámci tří kruhů): Přeměna dobrého ve skvělé vyžaduje překročení prokletí kvalifikace. Kultura disciplíny: Spojíte-li kulturu disciplíny s etikou podnikání, získáte kouzelný recept na skvělé výsledky. Technologické akcelerátory: Firmy, které se z dobrých staly skvělými, mají na roli technologie odlišný pohled. Setrvačník a bludný kruh: Těm, kdo spouštějí programy radikálních změn a velkých restrukturalizací, se téměř s určitostí skok od dobrého ke skvělému nepodaří. Některé klíčové koncepce objevené ve studii, poznamenává Jim Collins, jsou v naprostém rozporu s naší moderní podnikatelskou kulturou a některé lidi upřímně rozčílí. Možné to je, ale kdo si může dovolit tato zjištění ignorovat?

Francis Collins rozoberá vzťah vedy a náboženstva s rozumom a s úctou. Jeho kombinácia jasného vedeckého výkladu a osobnej reflexie je presiaknutá intelektuálnou aj duchovnou poctivosťou. Každý, kto sa pýta, ako môže byť viera zosúladená s vedeckým poznaním, každý, kto sa obáva, že moderná veda podrýva základy náboženstva, každý, kto sa chce zúčastniť na informovanej diskusii o kritických otázkach našej doby, by si mal túto knihu prečítať.William D. Phillipsfyzik, držiteľ Nobelovej ceny (1997) za objavy v oblasti laserového chladenia elementárnych častíc Francis Collins a jeho kniha sú pre mňa príkladom, ako konzistentne veriť Biblii a byť zároveň skvelým vedcom. Spolu s ním sa divím nad zázrakom toho, ako Boh vytvoril zložitosť vesmíru aj života pomocou zdanlivo jednoduchých procesov a inštrukcií.Daniel Nagajslovenský vedec, doktorát z kvantovej fyziky obhájil na MIT Center for Theoretical Physics v Bostone Napriek tomu, že Francis Collins je vedec a lekár na svetovej úrovni, racionalitu a poctivé vedecké uvažovanie nevníma v konflikte s morálkou či vierou. Naopak, intelektuálna poctivosť pre neho znamená ako systematické uvažovanie o ľudskom genóme, tak aj uvažovanie o hraniciach správnosti ľudského konania. V tejto knihe ponúka ojedinelú kombináciu, keď rovnocenne zastupuje záujmy vedeckého pokroku aj bioetiky. Upozorňuje na demagógiu , často typickú pre obe strany, a vyzýva na diskusiu založenú na racionálnom prístupe a vzájomnom rešpekte.Lucia Krčméryoválekárka a bioetička, absolventka Kolégia Antona Neuwirtha a LF UK, medicínsku etiku a právo vyštudovala na King s College London

Firmy, které se rozhodly být skvělé - Jim Collins, Morten T. Hansen

Deset let po celosvětově úspěšném bestselleru „Jak z dobré firmy udělat skvělou“ přichází Jim Collins s dalším průkopnickým dílem, ve které si klade otázku, proč některé firmy v nejistých časech nebo dokonce v chaosu prosperují, zatímco jiné strádají? Na základě devítiletého výzkumu podpořeného důkladnou analýzou a naplněného poutavými příběhy Collins a jeho kolega Morten Hansen představují principy budování skvělé firmy v nepředvídatelném, bouřlivém a rychle se měnícím prostředí. Tato kniha je klasický Collins: polemizující, empirický a povznášející. Spolu s Hansenem přesvědčivě ukazují, že i v nejistém a chaotickém světě je dosažení úspěchu otázkou volby, nikoliv náhody.
