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.

The stunning The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde special edition features sprayed edges, color end pages, a built-in ribbon bookmark, and embossed foil cover. The beautiful design and attention to detail set this special edition book apart, whether you’re reading for the first time or building a library of your favorite classic literature books. What a study in contrasts is the friendship between Henry Jekyll and his boon companion, Edward Hyde. Where Jekyll is a handsome and respected man of science, Hyde is a surly and brutish misanthrope. Nevertheless, Jekyll allows Hyde free access to his home and laboratory and, surprisingly, madehim the sole beneficiary of his will. Given the closeness of their bond, it seems peculiar that no one has ever seen the two men together in public. And yet they share a remarkable chemistry. . . . First published in 1886, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is Robert Louis Stevenson #39;s classic tale of the duality of human nature and his iconic presentation of what would come to be referred to as the split personality. Born in 1850 in Edinburgh, Scotland, Stevenson crafted this novella during the Victorian era, a period marked by strict social mores and a fascination with the dual nature of man. The story delves into the duality of human nature, portraying Dr. Henry Jekyll #39;s harrowing struggle with his darker self, Mr. Edward Hyde, through a transformative potion that he creates. Considered a pioneering work in the psychological horror genre, it explores themes of identity, human evil, and the societal pressures that influence personal choices. Historically, it reflects the Victorian anxiety about the public and private spheres and the fears of degeneration prevalent in the late nineteenth century. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde challenges the notion of inherent goodness and questions the possibility of fully understanding one #39;s own multiplicity and capacity for evil. Its enduring appeal lies in its profound philosophical questions about the essential conflict within human nature.

The Avengers was the comic book of the 1970s. From Civil Rights to Womenâ ™s Lib, battles for the soul of America became battles between super heroes. Writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby co-created the all-star group of six super heroes in September 1963. From there, just three main writers chronicled Earthâ ™s Mightiest Heroes in that most turbulent of decades: Roy Thomas, Steve Englehart, and Jim Shooter, each with differing approaches. The Avengers quickly became the pivot around which the Marvel Universe turned. To look back through its issues is to get a crash course in â ™70s pop culture. Illustrated with full-color art from this legendary run, Paul Cornellâ ™s entry in the MARVEL AGE OF COMICS series explores how the Mighty Avengers became icons during a time of immense change and upheaval.

Whatever name the historians gave to the conflicts fought by Sweden and Denmark-Norway, and despite all of the battles, sieges, winter campaigns, and guerrillas, in a wider perspective these events have been often considered a theater of war on the periphery. The struggle for predominance in Europe was not formed up in some hyperborean outlying land, but down in Flanders, Rhineland and Mediterranean. However, even in Northern European countries, the war set its mark on the masses, involving economy, domestic policy and diplomacy throughout the conflicts. After the devastating war against Poland, and Russia, and later The German Empire, Brandenburg and the Netherlands, Sweden was a major Louis XIVÂ’s ally. Both France and Sweden were interested in reducing the Dutch leading roll as a seafaring, commerce nation. Denmark-Norway faced this scenario always in the opposite side. The Swedish army was still regarded as a role model by the contemporaries, and even after the reforms introduced by Gustavus Adolphus, Swedish generals did not cease to develop new military theories, while the state provided itself with an administrative structure capable of supporting the war effort. No less important was the political and military trajectory of Denmark, the nation that more than any other in these years was on the front line against the Lion of the North. The history, organisation, equipment, uniforms and ensigns of the two armies are brought together in a single volume, together with an appendix dealing with the Duchy of Courland.

A foundational reckoning with how Black Americans have used the written word to define and redefine themselves over the course of the country s history.Distilled over many years from Henry Louis Gates Jr s legendary Harvard course in African American Studies, The Black Box: Writing the Race is the story of Black self-definition in America through the prism of the writers who have led the way. From Phillis Wheatley and Frederick Douglass, W. E. B. Du Bois and Booker T. Washington, to Zora Neale Hurston and Richard Wright, James Baldwin and Toni Morrison, these writers used words to create a liveable world ⠓ a ⠜home⠝ ⠓ for Black people destined to live in a bitterly racist society.This is a community that defined and transformed itself in defiance of oppression and lies; a collective act of resistance and transcendence that is at the heart of its self-definition. Out of that contested ground has flowered a resilient, creative, powerful, diverse culture formed by people who have often disagreed markedly about what it means to be Black , and about how best to shape a usable past out of the materials at hand, to call into being a more just and equitable future.This is the epic story of how, through essays and speeches, novels, plays and poems, a long line of creative thinkers has unveiled the contours of ⠓ and resisted confinement in ⠓ the black box that this ⠜nation within a nation⠝ has been assigned, from its founding to today. It is a book that records the compelling saga of the creation of a people.

In 1878, Robert Louis Stevenson was suffering from poor health, struggling to survive on the income derived from his writings, and tormented by his infatuation with Fanny Osbourne, a married American woman. His response was to embark on a journey through the Cevennes with a donkey, Modestine, and a notebook, which he later transformed into Travels with a Donkey. Just a few months after publication, Stevenson was off again - this time crossing the Atlantic and the breadth of America in the hope of being re-united with Fanny, an experience he recorded in The Amateur Emigrant. Both pieces are classics of travel writings, which reveal as much about Stevenson s character as the landscape he travels through.

For many people the halcyon days of Potteries Motor Traction was the decade between the management buyout of the company from the National Bus Company in 1986 until the merger of Badgerline and GRT to form First Bus in 1997. The adoption of the bright red-and-yellow livery with a zipper stripe ushered in the new era. Gone were the drab days of the National Bus Company and its poppy-red livery and restrictive practices. Deregulation in October 1986 would unleash new freedoms that would see PMT open depots and outstations at Crewe, Wolverhampton, Moreton, Stockport and Leeds, well outside their traditional operating area, to service recently won tendered services on behalf of other councils. These would be branded Red Rider. The purchase of the Crosville depots at Chester, Birkenhead and Ellesmere Port would take their red-and-yellow buses all over the Wirral and into Liverpool, and the purchase of Pennine Blue would establish operations around Tameside in Manchester.Cliff Beeton presents a vibrant selection of images that tells the fascinating story of Potteries Motor Traction in its heyday.
