Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. States "First Published in the UK by Nicholas Brealey Publishing in 2006." Sometimes viewed as a a "campaign book" by Fiorina, who served as CEO of Hewlett-Packard from 1999 to 2005, providing HP servers to Michael Hayden, director of the National Security Agency, after the 2001 Muslim terror attacks. (The servers were used in "Stellar Wind," a 2001-2007 NSA warrantless surveillance program.) Fiorina was forced out of Hewlett Packard after overseeing sizable domestic layoffs and the "offshoring" of many jobs, as well as a 50 percent drop in the company's stock. Fiorina ran unsuccessfully for the United States Senate against Barbara Boxer of California in 2010 and for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016, losing early to Donald Trump, who she found "horrifying." Telling CNN (CNN!) in December, 2019 "I think it is vital that (President Donald Trump) be impeached," Mrs. Fiorina pretty much guaranteed her future now lies in volunteering at her local food bank. Dust jacket shows some rumpling to top left quadrant of front panel, and a vertical crease down the center of the spine -- jacket was probably folded in half at one point and stored inside the book. 319 pp. including index. Reduced from $17.50.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. No matter where we live of what we do, we deal with people using a wide variety of communication styles every day. At work, in the marketplace and at home, diversity in communication styles presents rich opportunities, yet too often people misunderstand each other. Communication Highwire is an important breakthrough for managers, team leaders, community leaders, educators, trainers and facilitators as they help individuals and teams overcome frustration, prevent mistakes and save time and money. World-class intercultural trainers and educators share their strategies and techniques-and, most importantly, their tools-to leverage diversity in the modern world. Twenty-six powerful activities are ready to go with little preparation. Developed for the first time in this book, the 5-Factor model (Context, Goals, Values, Self-Concept, Communication Style Repertoire) is presented in an easy-to-use Star Chart approach. A 4-Step process puts it all together: combining Factors and Descriptors to enhance communication. Dozens of examples-stories from international business to politics to community development to family life-make the concepts real and applicable. Communicating across a variety of styles requires the skills of a tightrope walker, but the rewards to the performers are immense. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. "First published by Nicholas Brealey Publishing in 2004." Boards resist opening past 50 degrees. Thus "as new unread," though both top board corners have been banged. "Calverley investigates why bubbles occur, focussing" (sic) "on the interaction between interest rate policy and the psychology and investor behavior. . . . Controversially, the book argues that we can identify bubbles as they emerge based on market valuations and a checklist of other factors. Armed with this knowledge there are ways to prevent bubbles inflating too far by designing 'speed limits' on bank lending" . . . presumably allowing regulators to cool Goldilocks' porridge till it's "just right." Book leads off with eight quotes in "praise" of this opus, the first from Sir Andrew Crockett, president, J.P. Morgan Chase International and former general manager, Bank of International Settlements, 1999-2003, who acknowledges that "Not everyone will agree with all aspects of his diagnosis and prescription."

214 x 134 mm; laminated pictorial wrappers; pp. xii + 241 + (ii); colour plates. Crease to bottom fore-corner of upper cover. Very good condition. "Join Peter Allison for hair-raising and hilarious tales of Africa, animals and close escapes, and come through amazed - but without a scratch. It shouldn't be fun to be chased by an animal that outweighs you by a factor of seventy, but Peter gets an odd thrill every time an elephant charges his beaten-up jeep or a peckish crocodile looks at him sideways. By now you'd think the bestselling author of Don't Run, Whatever You Do would know his way around. You'd be wrong. From avoiding territorial hippos and half-starved lions, to dodging landmines and getting lost on the unforgiving savannah, Peter has had his fair share of close calls: like the afternoon he heard monkeys telling him that a leopard was walking around the camp, and them realized the leopard was in his tent, with him in it. Drawing on his experiences in South Africa, Botswana, Mozambique and Namibia, Don't Look Behind You! is another brilliant book of crazy and charming, endearing and laugh-out-loud funny safari stories.".
