This selection introduces a major poet who is also a business studies professor, a combination which may explain his vigorous questioning of human values in poetry which asks `What is worthwhile?’ His poems are characterized by simplicity and clarity, narrative and reasoning: he claims they `at least promise to be about the important things in everyone’s life.’
