    Book Description

    The fields of performance measurement and management control have changed dramatically in recent years. Industry has recognized the importance of the implementation and coordination of strategy with organizational structure, management systems, and managerial behavior. Managers as well as researchers are attempting to find better ways to link performance metrics to strategy through systems like balanced scorecard and shareholder value analysis and to drive improved corporate performance.

    Researchers are also trying to better understand the drivers of corporate performance, the linkages between them, and how to measure their impacts on profitability. They are examining which of the various performance measurement and management control systems are more or less effective, how they fit with alternative organizational structures and strategies, and the causes of their successes and failures.

    Book Description

    Even the most carefully planned organizational changes can fail if individuals are not taken into consideration. The Human Side of Change is a step-by-step action plan for the change process that takes full advantage of an organization's greatest resource: its people. From planning to implementation to behavior change, Timothy J. Galpin shows how a well-orchestrated approach--one that pays attention to the soft side
    aspects of the process--can make the difference between change for the better and no change at all.

    Drawing on a decade of consulting experience with businesses and governments around the world, Timothy J. Galpin outlines a nine-step process for effectively combining the human and technical sides of change for successful mergers, downsizing, and restructuring. The Human Side of Change offers managers, frontline supervisors and human resource professionals valuable tools, techniques, and examples to help them gain support for change at all levels of an organization. With numerous charts, graphs, and a glossary of change-management terms, this book is both an ideal blueprint and an accessible quick reference for the implementation of stable and sustained transformation.

    1 out of 5 stars untrustworthy.......2002-06-13

    untrustworthy is the term that comes to mind to describe this piece of literature and its author. There really isn't anything "human" about the "change " galpin advocates in reality. In fact after hearing the man speak, one can only get the "whats in it for me" philosophy. Secrecy, abandonment of ethics and morals comes to mind when reviewing the work and the man. Deeply disappointed.

    5 out of 5 stars Pithy, Practical Guide to Mapping Change.......2001-06-30

    This book is short and to the point. Proceding from the perception of a need to change, it directs the reader through myriads of questions and processes to be able to direct an organization through change.

    Galpin points out repeatedly that change is a process that takes a period of time to institute. The model of change proposed is a nine spoked wheel outlining clearly the organizational steps required to proceed through the process. Appendix A and B are lists of questions that need to be addressed in this steps of the change process.

    Most useful are the eight topics relevant to change. There is a chapter devoted to each topic. The topics are teams, communications, culture, leadership, goal setting, performance measurement, coaching and rewards.

    One of the most important concepts in this book is related to the idea that change cannot occur without changing the culture of the organization. Ten areas of organizational culture are identified. The change agent is encouraged to analyze each area of the culture and change all possible relevant aspects of the culture in order to support the proposed change.

    Communication is also stressed. In order to involve all the organizational players, there needs to be communication to and from each person. Ongoing methods of distribution of information and acquiring feedback need to be implemented. It is not enough to passively submit to listening to feedback. Specific feedback needs to be sought.

    This reviewer appreciated the pithy, pointed format of this book. Other individuals who have also read this book, told this reviewer that they think this book should be required reading for the healthcare industry. However, the book invites further discovery in the topic of change.

    3 out of 5 stars a book for all seasons.......2000-05-28

    Timothy Galpin has written a book that is appropriate for the manager of a small independant organization or the CEO of a multinational corporation. What Galpin points out is that in order for change to work, it must be done with the human element in mind. He emphasizes discipline and honesty as essential attributes and the tool kits at the end of the text are well formulated and organized.

    3 out of 5 stars A resource tool for managing a changing environment.......1999-09-27

    Over all, "The Human Side of Change" is an excellent resource tool in helping managers deal with a changing environment in the workplace. The author does a good job at identifying key issues that will assist you in improving your management/leadership skills. I think that every person in a leadership position, whether it be lower level, middle, or upper management, should take the time to utilize this book. I believe that overall it will improve your job performance, in your own eyes, and in the eyes of your employee's.

                          How can we measure the distance to a star? Beginning in ancient Greece, historys greatest scientific minds applied themselves to the problem in vain. Not until the nineteenth century would three men, armed with the best telescopes of their age, race to conquer this astronomical Everest. Parallax tells the fast-moving story of their contest, which ended in a dead heat. Against a sweeping backdrop filled with kidnappings, dramatic rescue, swordplay, madness, and bitter rivalry, Alan W. Hirshfeld brings to life the heroesand heroinesof this remarkable chapter in history. Characters include the destitute boy plucked from a collapsed building who grew up to become the worlds greatest telescope maker; the hot-tempered Dane whose nose was lopped off in a duel over mathematics; a merchants apprentice forced to choose between the lure of money and his passion for astronomy; and the musician who astounded the world by discovering a new planet from his own backyard.Generously illustrated with period engravings and paintings, Parallax is an unforgettable ride through time and space.

                          5 out of 5 stars A biography of a scientific puzzle.......2006-03-06

                          Parallax is a marvellous book that will interest almost anyone who likes to read popular science and popular astronomy. It is an example of a new genre of science writing: writing a biography of a scientific puzzle that had a long life. In this case the puzzle is to find small changes in the positions of stars, due to the Earth's annual motion round the Sun. In learning about this, we find unexpected discoveries, such as the aberration of starlight. Alan Hirshfeld, a professor of physics at the University of Massachusetts, tells the story at a rattling good pace. All the science you need to grasp is explained clearly. The book truly captures the adventuresome spirit of the astronomers involved.

                          5 out of 5 stars Sometimes It Takes More Than Just A Clever Mind.......2004-12-22

                          In science, clever minds and precision equipment go hand in hand. Take string theory - it sounds great [and I personally hope it's correct], but we don't have the equipment needed to do the experiments. In the book Parallax by Alan W. Hirshfeld, we take an almost two thousand year journey through history trying to confirm or deny the existence of stellar parallax - the apparent motion of a star due to the Earth's revolution. Hirshfeld introduces us to great scientific mind after scientific mind, all who knew exactly what they should see, but all thwarted in their efforts until the science of telescope making caught up with their brilliant minds. Since we know where the journey ends, part of the fun of reading Parallax comes from Hirshfeld's vivid portraits of the lives of the philosophers, astronomers, and instrument makers involved with finding stellar parallax. My favorite portrait was of Joseph Fraunhofer, telescope maker extraordinaire and survivor of incredible childhood trauma. I highly recommend Parallax by Alan W. Hirshfeld to anyone with an interest in astronomy, the history of science, or instrument making.

                          5 out of 5 stars magnificent.......2004-01-06

                          This is the best book on popular astonomy that I have read in many years, perhaps ever. It is hard to imagine a more balanced, better organized and readable description of a thorny technical topic than is presented here. In the mini-biographies of astonomers for 2,500 years, one is reminded ot Richard Rhodes book "The Making of the Atomic Bomb" in which he capsules 20th century science, Chemistry in particular. Hirshfeld provides interesting and often amusing thumbnail sketches of all the Parallax protagonists from Aristarchus to the present. His descriptions of Tycho Brahe, Galileo and Kepler are particularlly vivid. I had always read that Tycho had his nose bitten off in a drunken brawl, but, alas, not so! It was in a drunken duel.

                          The balance of the book is outstanding; each progression of understanding of the magnitude of the problem is presented with equal weight. The actual magnitude and dimensions of the problem (physically measuring the movement of a star from the exremes of the earths orbit) are described in bite sized increments, until by the time that the problem is surmounted in the mid 1800s, the full appreciation of the achievement is inescapable. If genius is "an infinite capacitiy for details", then the astronomers, and Dr. Hirshfeld both fully qualify for the title.

                          I am enthusiastically recommending this book to every literate person I know. It is satisfying and mind stretching, beautifully constructed, illustrated and edited. A great book!

                          5 out of 5 stars A Truly Well-Written Labor of Love.......2003-09-26

                          This is very simply a great book. The writing is clear and engaging and the history and the science are well presented in a logical chronological order. The love of the author for his subject stands out on every page; and his enthusiasm is contagious - one feels like getting a telescope (if one doesn't already have one) and start exploring the heavens. The book also illustrates in the best and most painless of ways how scientists' work complements that of others - hence progress. Highly recommended!

                          5 out of 5 stars If you like science history, don't overlook this book.......2003-09-26

                          There have been a lot of history of science books over the last few years - Dava Sobel in particular is very popular. If you like books by her or Jared Diamond or Amir Aczel, you'll love this volume. A smooth read, but with plenty of meat. The theme of the book is also rather more important than that of Sobel's Longitude; the program for the search for parallax was laid out in Galileo's Starry Messenger, and drove astronomical progress for centuries, and is still an important area of research, while remaining mostly unkown to the public. The only scientific theme which lasted longer, or generated more incidental progress, was the search for a proof of Fermat's theorem.

                          I don't think you can grasp the history of science without being exposed to the material in this book. Give a copy to the budding bookish teenager in your life.

                                            Amazon offers this study guide along with the text book as a package deal. However, the text book is the 3rd edition and the study guide is the 2nd edition, rendering it pretty much useless to my daughter. Please review this closer than my daughter did! I beleive that this is an Amazon issue more so than the fault of the publisher.

                                            I purchased this study guide to go with the Thrid Edition of the textbook, as shown with the text book. when i recieved it, i realized that it is the second edtion and is not compatable with the third edition. just be careful of what edition you need it for.

                                            This has got to be the worst solution manual I've encountered. My edition is copyrighted in 2004, and it still seems like it is a very rough draft. Although some of the solutions come out to be quite clear, for every one of those there is at least one that either solves the problem with unnecessary complexity or is downright wrong. This causes a lot of confusion and self-doubt for the student. Errors of this type and frequency are tolerable if they come from one's mentor, but when the solution manual comes from a publisher with such reknown as McGraw-Hill, I would expect it to be thoroughly edited and proofread. I would definitely not recommend this item unless they have a revised edition published. In the meantime, one would be much better off asking his or her professor or TA for the solutions, and discussing with them as necessary.

                                            Although this solution guide has a few mistakes, it helped me tremendously in Genetics. I got an A only because I had the answer and explanation to EVERY question in the textbook. It gave me a clear understanding of the basic concepts and it had plenty of diagrams. Barely anyone in my class had the solutions manual, so I felt like I had an advantage over everybody...and I found out I was right when I got my report card! :-)

                                                This is a great new album by the always-great Firesign Theater. This time, 29 tracks of the millenium, compiled into a flowing theme of a radio broadcast. It's a great listen, with old familiar voices such as Ralph Spoilsport, and many new (Harold Hiphugger, Bebop Loco, etc). If you can, get it!
