"Honduras is violent " Adrienne Pine situates this oft-repeated claim at the center of her vivid and nuanced chronicle of Honduran subjectivity. Through an examination of three major subject areas--violence, alcohol, and the export-processing (maquiladora) industry--Pine explores the daily relationships and routines of urban Hondurans. She views their lives in the context of the vast economic footprint on and ideological domination of the region by the United States, powerfully elucidating the extent of Honduras's dependence. She provides a historically situated ethnographic analysis of this fraught relationship and the effect it has had on Hondurans' understanding of who they are. The result is a rich and visceral portrait of a culture buffeted by the forces of globalization and inequality..

The average working week in the US is 60 hours and rising. These days, people are working harder than ever before. But these long hours don't necessarily translate into productivity While individuals race to meet deadlines, they aren't creating change; they are responding to it. According to Robert Kriegel, the only way to succeed in today's business climate is to break away from old modes, myths and mindsets and rethink, redefine and reinvent the rules that govern the game. He encourages individuals to adopt new strategies that have proven to increase dramatically the performance levels of employees and companies alike. His suggestions include innovative business ideas like vertical meetings, where everyone stands, guaranteeing they will be shorter (where do you think Easyjet's Stelios got the idea). Kriegel challenges conventional wisdom in order to come up with dramatic new solutions to old problems. After all, that's the only way to succeed in business without working so damn hard....

Every salesperson must ``make the sale''--but chatting, networking, even listening to a customer's ``needs'' will only get them so far. What really spells success in sales is the salesperson's ability to determine the customer's true ``wants''--and appeal to those wants directly. Armed with feedback from hundreds of decision-makers, buyers, and end-users at various corporations, authors Brooks and Travisano show how customers almost always make a partly emotional buying decision and demonstrate how to: identify the ``hidden buying motivation'' defined by a customer's wants; use words, phrases, and techniques that work most effectively to uncover customers wants; create a perception in the customer's mind that is favorable--instead of relying on facts and stats..
