Once we turn, though, where will we be? That is the compelling question Al Gore sets out to answer by examining the drivers of global change, connecting the dots among the social, economic, and political forces shaping our present and future. A rising global consciousness is forcing people around the world, but especially Americans, to rethink their basic assumptions about how the world works, and, even more fundamentally, how it should and can work. Borders matter less than ever. Technology is constantly reordering the way we live, think, work, learn, love, pray, and play-- http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1715166 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1682843 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1712180 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1687300 Many fine books on the financial crisis were first drafts of history--books written quickly to fill the need for immediate understanding. Alan S. Blinder, former vice chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, held off, taking the time to understand the crisis and create a truly comprehensive and coherent narrative of how the worst economic crisis in postwar American history happened, what the government did to fight it, and what we must do from here--mired as we still are in its wreckage. Blinder shows how the U.S. financial system, grown far too complex for its own good--and too unregulated for the public good--experienced a perfect storm beginning in 2007. When Americas financial structure crumbled, the damage proved to be not only deep, but wide. It took the crisis for the world to discover, to its horror, just how truly interconnected--and fragile--the global financial system is. Blinder offers clear-eyed answers to the questions still before us, even if some of the choices ahead are as divisive as they are unavoidable.--From publisher description. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1742065 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1681664 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1704978 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1687274 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1732705 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1742084 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1682497 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1679185 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1682886 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1742033 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1731386 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1731404 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1742071 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1731428 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1741998 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1675044 Updated for the latest web-based project management tools and the newest version of PMP certification, this book shows how to master every project management task, from upfront budgetnig and scheduling through execution, managing teams to closing projects, and learning from experience. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1669031 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1750381 During his storied career as head coach of the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers, Phil Jackson won more championships than any coach in the history of professional sports. Even more important, he succeeded in never wavering from coaching his way, from a place of deep values. Jackson was tagged as the Zen master half in jest by sportswriters, but the nickname speaks to an important truth: this is a coach who inspired, not goaded; who led by awakening and challenging the better angels of his players nature, not their egos, fear, or greed. This is the story of a preachers kid from North Dakota who grew up to be one of the most innovative leaders of our time. In his quest to reinvent himself, Jackson explored everything from humanistic psychology and Native American philosophy to Zen meditation. In the process, he developed a new approach to leadership based on freedom, authenticity, and selfless teamwork that turned the hypercompetitive world of professional sports on its head.--From publisher description. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1742027 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1731368 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1742066 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1684977 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1742162 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1742044 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1712804 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1687275 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1704540 Gives you all the information you need for how to navigate in this unspoiled and thriving Central American country. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1684551 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1693210 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1669138 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1693107 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1752788 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1742156 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1687145 Teaches five core competencies for success and fulfillment (attention, outlook, action, resilience, and effectiveness) by examining five pairs of contradictory truths.
