Novels
"Classic and timeless!" --New York Times
"As relevant as ever, this book is an education. Ron is a true American, and his great heart and hard-won wisdom shine through these pages." --Oliver Stone, filmmaker
This New York Times best seller (more than one million copies sold), presented here in a special fortieth-anniversary edition with a brand-new foreword by Bruce Springsteen, details the author's life story (portrayed by Tom Cruise in the Oliver Stone film)--from a patriotic soldier in Vietnam, to his severe battlefield injury, to his role as the country's most outspoken anti-Vietnam War advocate, spreading his message from his wheelchair.
In a world economy that is becoming increasingly integrated and interdependent, the relationship between business and society is becoming ever more complex. The globalization of business, the emergence of civil society organizations in many nations, and new government regulations and international agreements have significantly altered the job of managers and the nature of strategic decision making within the firm. The Seventeenth Edition of Business and Society: Stakeholders, Ethics, Public Policy draws on the latest research to address the challenges facing business organizations and their stakeholders. The text builds on its legacy of market leadership by reexamining central issues.
Students preparing to succeed in today's workplace require solid training in communication skills and principles, as well as experience in realistic professional applications. Peter Cardon brings substantial and concrete business-world experience to bear in the text's principles, examples, and activities and ensure that the theories, concepts, and skills most relevant are fully represented and engaged. The result is a program that speaks student's language and helps them understand and apply business communication skills in their personal and professional lives. Since professional success depends on managing and working within professional relationships, unique to the market, the first chapter of this text is focused on establishing credibility. Principles of relationship-building such as personal credibility, emotional intelligence and listening are then woven throughout the text. The case-based approach helps students learn how communication can build rich and productive relationships between professionals. Each chapter opens with a short business case and integrates examples from the case throughout the chapter and into the model documents, engaging students in the story behind each business message.
