Ben Tiggelaar The Ideas of Robert Quinn About Leadership
Management Classics
Change and growth. Those are the constant factors in the work of Robert Quinn. In many of his books, Quinn challenges you to critically review your present ideas. For one thing, Quinn challenges us to reflect on the management models we´re accustomed to using in the field of management and organization. He says that one management model is not necessarily better than another. It´s just that one particular model is likely to work better in a certain situation than others. This means we have to move...

Paul Craenen Composing under the skin
the music-making body at the composer's desk
A revealing study of the physical presence of the musician in musical performance. Fingers slipping over guitar strings, the tap of a bow against the body of a cello, a pianist humming along to the music: contemporary composers often work with parasitic, non-conventional sounds such as these. Are they to be perceived as musical elements or do they shift attention to the physical effort of music-making, contact between a body and an instrument? Composer Paul Craenen explores ways in which the musician's...

the commentary tradition on Aristotle's De anima, c. 1260 - c. 1360

However, there is a key difference in scope between the socalled 'science of the soul', based on Aristotle, and modern philosophical...

Greg Houwer Into the white
Kafka and his metamorphoses
Into the White lays bare a hidden overall logic in Kafka's work. Instead of restoring an initial but perturbed balance - the standard pattern for a piece of fiction -, Kafka's characters always do the opposite: they do everything they can to maintain the imbalance. The book shows how this should be linked to Kafka's own attitude as a writer. Writing, for Kafka, always gave birth to promises that could not be kept. It opens up gates that the writer is not allowed to enter. In the stories that deal...

The book juxtaposes participants...

Whose weight is it anyway?
essays on ethics and eating
It is a simple truth: nobody can do without food. But to solely describe food as a biological need would be too limited, neglecting the fact that food is a social and cultural practice as well. Despite its appearance, food is not even morally neutral. It is this moral aspect that is being explored in the book. Scholars from various disciplines address the ethical perspective of changing food habits in general, and the promotion of healthy eating in particular. While it is certainly the case that...
