The Battle of Gettysburg, in early July, 1863, began promisingly for Lee and his Confederate forces, but as the fighting progressed it became clear that in a pounding match where Meade's Union force remained nailed defensively to high ground it would take a master stroke on Lee's part for the Confederates to prevail. Attacks to turn the Union flank had failed leading to a decision to launch a concerted direct assault of converging regiments on the centre of the Union line, which was commanded by Hancock. The initiative seemed born of desperation and the Confederate general, Longstreet had little faith in its success. The attacking Confederates were compelled to march for over a mile across a wide expanse of open ground, under the most punishing enemy fire, before they could reach Union lines. Nevertheless, upon the order, the ranks of grey and butternut stepped bravely forward, under the commands of Pickett, Trimble and Pettigrew, and despite suffering fearful losses, some of them actually broke into the lines of the soldiers in blue. There they were killed, captured or faltered and fell back in retreat. 'Pickett's Charge', as this valiant debacle came to be known, was set upon a task almost certain to fail. Only the courage of those who charged is beyond question, for this attack has been the subject of intensive debate and much controversy. This Leonaur book on this pivotal action contains several essential perspectives by different authors and includes many maps and illustrations.
Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.

Wenn der PMBOK(R) Guide Ihnen jedoch noch nicht begegnet ist: Der PMBOK(R) Guide (A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge) ist als weltweiter Standard im Projektmanagement anerkannt.

In dieser Version 6 sind auch agile Konzepte integriert, da diese heutzutage ein wichtiger Bestandteil unserer Projektumgebungen sind.

Das wirklich Neue an dieser sechsten Ausgabe im Vergleich zu frueheren Ausgaben ist, dass neben einigen kleineren Updates jeder PM-Aspekt - genannt Wissensbereich - nun einen Abschnitt mit dem Titel Ansaetze fuer agile und adaptive Umgebungen enthaelt, in dem beschrieben wird, wie diese Praktiken in Ihre Projekte integriert werden koennen. Ausserdem wird mehr Wert auf das strategische und betriebswirtschaftliche Wissen eines Projektleiters gelegt - einschliesslich der Diskussion der eher strategischen Dokumente zBusiness Case" und zBenefit Management Plan" - die unsere Projekte vorantreiben.Auf organisationsweiter Ebene unterstuetzt der PMBOK Guide (R) einen strukturierten und gut abgestimmten Ansatz fuer einen Projektlebenszyklus und stellt sicher, dass alle Beteiligten (=zStakeholder") die gleiche Sprache sprechen. Es wird die praktische Anwendung von Projektmanagementprozessen verbessern, wenn diese nun von allen verstanden und konsequent angewendet werden.

Groundbreaking analysis showing that greater economic equality-not greater wealth-is the mark of the most successful societies, and offering new ways to achieve it.
"Get your hands on this book."-Bill Moyers
This groundbreaking book, based on thirty years' research, demonstrates that more unequal societies are bad for almost everyone within them-the well-off and the poor. The remarkable data the book lays out and the measures it uses are like a spirit level which we can hold up to compare different societies. The differences revealed, even between rich market democracies, are striking. Almost every modern social and environmental problem-ill health, lack of community life, violence, drugs, obesity, mental illness, long working hours, big prison populations-is more likely to occur in a less equal society. The book goes to the heart of the apparent contrast between material success and social failure in many modern national societies.
The Spirit Level does not simply provide a diagnosis of our ills, but provides invaluable instruction in shifting the balance from self-interested consumerism to a friendlier, more collaborative society. It shows a way out of the social and environmental problems which beset us, and opens up a major new approach to improving the real quality of life, not just for the poor but for everyone. It is, in its conclusion, an optimistic book, which should revitalize politics and provide a new way of thinking about how we organize human communities.
