Review # 1 was written on 2012-04-16 00:00:00 Cathryn Haber If you want a book on workplace democracy from a non-dogmatic, empirically sensitive economists perspective, this is your book. It provides a fairly nuanced account of the strengths and weaknesses of such firms relative to others on empirical grounds, but Dow isn't afraid to dip his toe into normative political philosophy to make his case for his vision; defending the kind of workplace democracy most likely to satisfy normative and practical concerns. There's a lot here to argue with but this is a remarkable useful and well done book; if the subject is new to you I can't imagine there are many better places to start. |
Review # 2 was written on 2019-09-09 00:00:00 Edmond Osborn Krull has compiled an enjoyable assortment of sketches on 16 famous musicial giants that will have readers rushing to the stereo. In three or four pages each, such masters as Vivaldi, Mozart, Beethoven, and Tchaikovsky; popular composers such as Gilbert & Sullivan, Joplin, and Gershwin; and even folk hero Woody Guthrie are profiled. Gossipy, nitty-gritty personal habits and quirks are presented, along with a sense of appreciation for the musicians' lives and times. Hewitt's full-page caricatures are surrounded by important details. In subdued but striking colors, she captures the personality and temperament of these composers. This is a humorous, delightful, appreciative treat. While it doesn't have enough information for reports, it's a fine, personalized way to introduce children to the creators of great works that are a part of every music curriculum. |
