Little Sister - Carol Birch - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

She''s come to steal my thunder again, hasn''t she? Dying, my foot. She''s probably just being dramatic. Dying for dramatic effect. She would.'' Cathy Wren, aged 37, lives alone in a small northern town, surviving on waitressing and piano teaching. She nurses her quiet drab life, keeping memories of a tumultuous earlier time at bay, until one stray remnant of that old life knocks on her front door. There, standing on her doorstep, in the rain, is Stephen, ex-boyfriend of her younger sister, Veronica Karen. He''s come with bad news about her sister and a dogged determination to find her, and he wants Cathy''s help. Cathy, who hasn''t spoken to Veronica Karen - that thorn in her side - for ten years, is about to find herself on a weird and haphazard journey that turns into much more than a search for her little sister.''It is in its delicate exploration of the murky ground between objective assessment for life and irrational affection for a person that the novel compels'' - TLS

My Manager and Other Animals - Dr Richard (author) Robinson - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

My Manager and Other Animals - Dr Richard (author) Robinson - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

Deep down, we''re just like animals. Some of us are selfish like apes. Some are chaotic like ants. . . And somehow the two clash and coalesce in ''antagonistic harmony''. A fascinating look at the evolutionary psychology, instincts and tactics of the workplace. My Manager & Other Animals examines the evolutionary psychology of work, focusing on the office, workshop, corporation or government department, and the complex and fascinating evolutionary tactics that have developed to deal with working life.37 years ago Richard Dawkins wrote The Selfish Gene and it didn''t take long for the business community to latch on to the ''selfish'' part and adopt it as an industry standard. After all, it fitted in with the notion that, since we are all descended from apes, we should be like them: selfish, aggressive and competitive. More recently, astounding discoveries in human and animal behaviour (particularly ants) have shown that, in all animals, cooperation and altruism is more common than we think and more useful than we could imagine. It seems we contain an inner ape and an inner ant. How confusing; they seem like opposites, because co-operation means helping others, competition means swatting them. What are we, ape or ant? This book shows that ant and ape are both important. Co-operation without leadership is random, leadership without co-operation is slavery. The result of these two colliding is the mad mad mad world of work and life, lovingly described in the book.
