Victorian History.......2007-07-19
I first borrowed this book from the Library to look for prices for antiques and what I found was an amazing look into victorian life like I've never imagined. Very interesting.
Book Description
Written for both experienced and novice collectors, 100 Years of the Decorative Arts is a comprehensive illustrated survey of a period once ignored by serious antique dealers but now one of the most popular collecting fields. In this book, Eric Knowles brings together Victoriana, Arts and Crafts, Art Nouveau and Art Deco.
Beginning with an introduction to the main events, artistic movements and technological advances of the period, Knowles looks in detail at all of the important craftsmen and women working in the United States, Britain, and continental Europe. The range of media considered is no less diverse and includes furniture, sculpture, ceramics, jewelry and glass. Each section includes information on identification, valuation, dating and fakes. Finally, there is a list of designers, craftsmen and women, manufacturers and their marks, and a glossary of technical terms.
Customer Reviews:
extensive but not enough.......2000-09-04
covers a wide range of different antiques and styles with a focus on the main artists of each style,descriptions,marks,and tips for what to look out for, but does not provide enough examples of the works of each artist or factory featured. good reading,well written,extensive and informative. the book contains a good number of selected designers and manufacturers as well as the different marks of many of them and that is very helpful. the author,Eric Knowles,is one of the leading experts in the field and you notice that as you read. it is a shame he does not put a value estimate by the photos.

Book Description
A groundbreaking study of the development of mechanical and metal cased pencils in the nineteenth century. Illustrated with over 700 photographs, the book provides examples of the extraordinary variety of propelling pencils that were created between 1800 and 1920. Readers will be struck by the ingenuity of the inventors and creators of this (until now) forgotten form of decorative art. From metal cased pencils that are elegantly practical, to "magic" pencils that are more whimsical than functional, this book follows the progress of the mechanical pencil as it evolves from a usable tool to something more akin to jewelry. This history of mechanical pencils also includes definitions of terms, descriptions of various mechanisms, ornamentation and surface decoration, and the multitude of combinations created by nineteenth century pencil-case makers. Value ranges are also included.

Book Description
This attractive and useful book presents thousands of beautiful hand-formed decorative glassware designs from British manufacturers, for export and domestic use, from 1850 to 1914. Detailed analysis and more than 850 color photographs and hundreds of carefully hand-drawn illustrations provide a visual feast to study and enjoy. Special sections present the remarkable range of profiles and patterns for rims, bodies (including applied motifs), and feet of glass items that can be used as an aid in the attribution of designs. The techniques used to decorate these glass items are described and illustrated. Wherever possible, designs are attributed to specific manufacturers. Clear illustrations show the Registered Designs for glassware recorded between 1850 and 1914 by seven major British glass manufacturers: Richardsons, Stevens & Williams, Stuart & Sons, Thomas Webb & Sons, Boulton & Mills, Burtles-Tate, and John Walsh. Classical influences of the 1840s and 1850s and concurrent designs, including free-flowing and naturalistic forms of the Art Nouveau period, are all present, reflecting the brilliant skills of these Victorian glass manufacturers.

Book Description
"How the Victorians loved things!" So exclaims Allison Kyle Leopold in Cherished Objects: Living with and Collecting Victoriana, a collector's cornucopia of 330 full-color photographs of every conceivable object for the home: ornately carved loveseats, lacy antimacassars, pressed-glass candy dishes, silver napkin rings, ginger-bread dollhouses, majolica, samplers, and walking sticks, among a host of others. Author of Victorian Splendor and a renowned scholar of Victoriana, Leopold conveys the warmth and romantic appeal of Victorian antiques as well as a vivid sense of American domestic history.
Leopold is also an avid collector, and here she inspires Victorian fans to scour antiques stores, auctions, and flea markets for such beautiful 19th-century inventions as Parian ware and photographic portraits and such curiosities as hair receivers and mustache cups. She shares her pleasure in the Victorian sense of whimsy, too, with board games and seashell-studded picture frames. For the sophisticated Victorian buff, Cherished Objects offers new ways to enjoy and expand established collections; for the newcomer to Victoriana, it opens a window onto a past filled with intimate and endlessly varied treasures.
Cherished Objects not only documents the historical background of Victorian collecting and decorating and highlights the range of Victorian styles from grand to exotic to period-perfect, but it also reveals valuable tips on finding, preserving, and displaying. Anyone who shares the Victorian passion for things will welcome this delightful compendium of their ancestors best-loved knick-knacks, gadgets, and elegant antiques.

Book Description
Since the U.S. Congress passed the Endangered Species Act in 1973, and subsequently listed the spotted owl as an endangered species in 1990, the debate over the appropriate management of public and private forests has continued at a fevered pitch in the Pacific Northwest. The listing of the spotted owl has led to the loss of tens of thousands of jobs in the logging and forest products industry, which has leveled a heavy toll on many rural communities in Oregon, Washington, and California that have relied for decades on a robust forest products industry to sustain their economies. In 1992 in Oregon, for example, the wood products industry was nine times greater as a share of the total Oregon economy than the industry was as a share of the total U.S. economy. While heated debate in the press and at the grassroots levels continues surrounding these issues, many remain unaware of a fundamental shift toward value-added manufacturing that has occurred in the region's forest products industry.
Since the late 1980s, employment in the secondary wood products industry in Oregon has increased from 27% to 40% of the total forest products workforce in 1995, according to the Oregon Employment Division. Total employment in Oregon for logging operations, sawmills, and veneer and plywood operations dropped between 1990-95, losing over 13,000 jobs. In contrast, the value-added and secondary wood products industry ? furniture, millwork, cabinetry, and the like ? actually generated 11% more jobs during that same period and outnumbered total employment opportunities by a 2:1 margin for sawmills, veneer, and plywood operations, and a 3:1 margin for logging operations. By 1995, the percentage growth rate for value-added wood production in Oregon outpaced the percentage growth rate of all other industry sectors in the state, including the burgeoning high-tech and electronics industry.
Although an apparent surprise to economists tracking the economic impacts of harvest restrictions in the Pacific Northwest, the growth of the secondary wood products industry has proven to be a stabilizing influence to the overall Oregon economy. It has done so by focusing on making more product out of existing, or in many cases less, resource. In effect, the mandated harvest restrictions provided a unique "two-by-four" incentive to the industry to figure out how to maximize production with available resources. The results were surprising.
Research by the Oregon Wood Products Competitiveness Corporation has documented that for every one million board feet of wood being processed into commodity lumber, on the average only three full-time, family-wage jobs are created. Full-time, family-wage jobs are year round positions that provide industry-competitive wage rates with benefits. If that same one million board feet in lumber were processed into component parts such as furniture blanks or table turnings, an additional twenty full-time, family-wage jobs could be created. And if that same one million board feet of wood represented in component parts were then processed into quality furniture for consumer use, another eighty full-time, family-wage jobs could be created.
Even so, industry adaptation to more value-added wood product manufacturing has been slow. Citing, in part, the difficulties in changing an industry culture and mind-set, Oregon's Wood Products Competitiveness Corporation determined in 1995 that less than 20% of the log volume harvested just in the central Oregon region alone found its way to secondary manufacturers in the Northwest. Eighty percent of the total lumber volume (approximately 1.8 billion board feet of timber) was processed into value-added product outside the western region. This equated to between 4,000 and 25,000 missed job opportunities for the region because commodity lumber was redirected elsewhere.
Increasing value-added wood product manufacturing in forest communities throughout the world may be as critical for achieving sustainable forestry as implementing new forest management practices. Making more with less, maximizing on the resources sustainably harvested, and converting wood waste into wood profits and full-time, family-wage jobs are all fundamental components of value-added wood processing. They provide the framework for achieving sustainable forestry and sustainable community development.
Parsons Pine Products, located in Ashland, Oregon, a small community of 14,000 people based in the heart of spotted owl territory, has been a pioneer and a leading advocate of value-added wood processing for the last fifty years. Once considered, by many in the industry, a maverick operation that often challenged traditional production assumptions and standard lumber grading rules, today Parsons Pine Products has emerged as a unique example of sustainable forest practices that turn "trash" boards into cash rewards. Its experiences in sustainable forest management SFM can be instructive for an industry in transition.

Book Description
The world of banking is changing, and in this new study from Financial Executives Research Foundation you can get a first-hand look at how financial executives and bankers are redefining the substance and practice of corporate banking relationships.

The author ties together the disparate elements and tensions in the banking industry through case studies of eleven companies and four banks, including Chase Manhattan Corporation, Citibank, Northwest Airlines, The Gillette Company, and more.

The subsequent chapters then present each of the characteristics that predict success in more detail, as well as tools and techniques for enhancing readers' personal and professional success. For beginning to mid-level executives.

Paula helps students gain personal mastery.......2007-09-05
I've used Paula's book for undergraduate teaching with very good success. Students find her point of view interesting and enjoy the read. This is not the standard OB textbook with a "march of failed theories". Instead, Paula effectively knits observations, insights, research from a host of traditions toward insights for managing the daily life of sensible beings.

Well researched and practical.......2002-07-02
A really well rounded book about the many dimensions of management....of particular interest is the chapter on understanding and building trust.
Real help for real issues.......2001-02-23
Dr. Caproni hits the nail on the head with this very practical book based on real knowledge (not just supposition). Developing the best in the people in our organizations (easy to want, and hard to do) will help leaders do more with less -- fewer people, less unnecessary change, less "blow it up and start again". Those are the hidden costs that will eat our lunch in competitive environments. I'm glad for the help this book offers.
Management development gurus take note.......2001-01-16
The book is first rate in its relevance, freshness of approach, organization and presentation. The combination of exercises, self-assessment tools, current research and statistics, and realistic perspective on the diverse, global, technology-driven workplace makes the book an extremely valuable tool. No fluff or fill here. This book is packed with information and useful tools for managers, executives, consultants,educators, and trainers. This one has legs, folks. Buy it, read it, and use it.
For the past six years, I have used Caproni's materials and ideas in executive and professional education programs with groups of managers from throughout the globe. They really respond to the way she organizes material, presents important ideas, and brings together critical management knowledge from several domains that are usually treated separately.
21st Century Reality Rules.......2001-01-05
I loved the fact that Ms. Caproni utilized a decididly non north american white male perspective. From the delightful family picture on the back cover to the diverse source material she really understands how the changing landscape of our world, both personal and workplace impacts the skills needed to manage. As an experienced consultant,fronline workplace warrior, digerati and MOM, I can tell her advice is obviously imformed by experience and her critical mind. Read it just to impress your friends with my (and I predicte soon to be the worlds) favorite new word Bricolage. Sould be required reading for all first time managers as well as anyone who aspires to work, live and love well. The practical free and credible assessments are worth the price of the book.

Powerful Lessons in Creating a Successful Startup Company.......2001-09-30
I received a copy of this book as a gift last year and it came with high recommendations from the giver. I found it to be written in a style that's easy to read and engages the reader. Each chapter contains several valuable lessons backed up with real-world examples from successful entrepreneurs. I found the success stories to be particularly intriguing and motivating since the author uses each entrepreneur's own words to keep the experience very personal. As an entrepreneur who has built a $60 million company from nothing in 4 years, I can say that that I have found the lessons taught in this book to be accurate and valuable. I highly recommend it as a good source of inspiration and information.
A real world pick me up.......1999-09-07
This book enjoys a permanent place on my nightstand. I recently started my own small contracting firm, and have allowed the book to: 1. Entertain me with real world success stories. 2. Educate me with real world advice and methodology from those that have "been there-done that" 3. Comfort me in the knowledge that I can. 4. Excite my imagination. 5. Empower me with that exitement. Read it folks......it will help.
Excellent title. One of best ever seen on entrepreneurship........1999-06-22
Neverf before seen a better researched book on this topic that offers such diversity of thinking. Excellent for anyone interested in making a business of any kind work.
A useful, useable, very positive guide to making it your way.......1999-05-31
First the disclaimer: I haven't finished reading this book yet. Of course, I only got it yesterday. I am in the middle of an unplanned career adjustment (can you spell "downsized"?), having thoughts of striking out on my own, and not knowing quite how to do it. This book is a Godsend!! It is helping me focus on the important things (all laid out neatly for my inventory) and evaluate my current situation vs. where I want to be. It is also providing the material for me to draw my own roadmap to get there. It will not replace hard work, desire, and the ability to recognize the sound of an opportunity knocking, but it sure helps you figure out what to do with the raw materials of success that are all around us! Don't get this book if your idea of a lucky break looks like six numbers in a lottery. If you think that hard work and good fortune are related, this book can bring it together for you. Will it make me a millionaire? Don't know yet, but I know how to find out! Gotta go now, I want to finish that book.
Fabulous Book! A bold "MUST HAVE" for any entrepreneur!.......1999-02-25
I read this book for the first time in December, and couldn't put it down. I re-read it in January and it still radiated the same amount of zeal! Michael Glauser is brilliant! His ideas are sound and his thoughts concise. This book ranks right up there with "The Greatest Salesman in the World" and "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People!" No one--self-employed or not--should be without this marvelous book.
