Hardback. Ron McTrusty, Profile Books Ltd. Today's unstable and insecure business world is a far cry from that of the recent past. And the coming years will bring even more change. Managers can survive and surmount the current turmoil by learning the Alice Principle: "To be employed is to be at risk; to be employable is to be secure." In this uncommon business book, the author uses, by analogy, the world of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, examining the dialogue from characters such as the Mad Hatter, Humpty Dumpty, and the White Rabbit to elucidate sound business principles. He then explains them further so managers can define themselves and their goals for the future. Here is a unique and dynamic way to learn sound management practice while keeping the world in perspective. Hardback.

Uncommon first edition in book form of this practical work on mine safety, by the mechanical engineer J. W McTrusty 'Lecturer on Mining to Warwickshire County Council', and based upon a series of articles first published in 'The Science and Art of Mining during 1911-12'. Aimed at mining firemen, examiners and deputies, there were written to help them to understand the new regulations brought in by the Coal Mines Act of 1911. The chapters deal in turn with safety issues surrounding mine air; carbon and oxides; black-damp; fire-damp; the diffusion of gases; shaft and underground fires; colliery explosions; the dangers of coal-dust; and with a final chapter on breathing apparatus. The Appendices include official advice on safety procedures to be followed at all mines. A second edition was published in 1916, and was again issued in 1919.
