Protagonist Silas Whitaker, an early thirties professional desperate to eek out meaning within his Finance landscape, at long last takes matters in his own hands. With an interior monologue that never sleeps, Silas spends his last week carving his initials into the bureaucracy that employs him, turning the drudgery into anything but, keeping his superiors off balance every step of the way.

In fact, before he realizes it, Derek learns that he and his co-workers share a few more things in common than just being under the same payroll.In a field where mixing business and pleasure is the thing NOT to do, obliviously everyone does it and before all the employees of The Firm Firm realize it, it is too late to stop what they have all started, especially when everyone has ties to each other and a dark past of their own; the fine line between professional and personal is violated on any and all levels.

Book Synopsis Cliché and Organization by : Luc Peters
Download or read book Cliché and Organization written by Luc Peters and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-02-29 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizations are caught in clichés. This means that they do not think for themselves anymore, but rather simply copy pre-existing ideas. This is giving rise to a world which pretends to be knowable, predictable and mouldable, one in which clichés like efficiency, transparency, means-ends rationality, and the strong leader are used without further thought or critique. This is the reason why organizations come into conflict with themselves, and which causes a seemingly unresolvable crisis. Film, however, can show us a totally different world. It has a subversive potency that can wake up the viewer, making them think again, allowing them to see a world which cannot be perceived anymore. It can show the world as it really is again, and can enable us to break through clichés. This book adopts a unique viewpoint on organizations, through its use of film. With the help of philosophers like Deleuze, Heidegger and Sloterdijk, filmmakers like the Coen Brothers, Cronenberg, Antonioni and Tarkovsky and films like The Big Lebowski, eXistenZ, Stalker and Playtime, a world is revealed and explored. It shows the decisive role played by architecture, and why managers are manipulative and impotent at the same time.

Book excerpt: Angela Talbott is dead. And she just realized that heaven isn’t eternal bliss and golden halos and discussions about cream cheese—it’s work. Hard work. Angela has been dead for three days, and she’s already been given a job—solving her own murder, which is turning out to be tougher than she ever would have thought. Being dead makes her invisible to the living, but it sure doesn’t make her Sherlock Holmes. And the suspects are piling up—her boyfriend, her anal-retentive co-worker, a homeless panhandler. And her brother. To make matters worse, there are two Hellions dogging her every move. These Hellions might not have horns and pitchforks, but they are big trouble. If Angela is killed by one of these two men, the afterlife is all over for her—and that’s exactly what they seem to be trying to do. Despite that, Angela finds herself inexplicably attracted to one of them: Alec, a man with a mysterious past who seems to know Angela better than she knows herself. But once Angela discovers that Alec may have been the one pulling the strings that led to her murder, all bets are off.

Book Synopsis Social dilemmas, institutions, and the evolution of cooperation by : Ben Jann
Download or read book Social dilemmas, institutions, and the evolution of cooperation written by Ben Jann and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of how cooperation and social order can evolve from a Hobbesian state of nature of a “war of all against all” has always been at the core of social scientific inquiry. Social dilemmas are the main analytical paradigm used by social scientists to explain competition, cooperation, and conflict in human groups. The formal analysis of social dilemmas allows for identifying the conditions under which cooperation evolves or unravels. This knowledge informs the design of institutions that promote cooperative behavior. Yet to gain practical relevance in policymaking and institutional design, predictions derived from the analysis of social dilemmas must be put to an empirical test. The collection of articles in this book gives an overview of state-of-the-art research on social dilemmas, institutions, and the evolution of cooperation. It covers theoretical contributions and offers a broad range of examples on how theoretical insights can be empirically verified and applied to cooperation problems in everyday life. By bringing together a group of distinguished scholars, the book fills an important gap in sociological scholarship and addresses some of the most interesting questions of human sociality.
