Mr. Clippinger has a fairly long and interesting Wikipedia profile that you can take a look at. 'Increasingly volatile, and complex, today's organizations cannot be controlled by any conventional approach to management. Indeed, an entirely new definition of what it means to manage is called for. In The Biology of Business, John Clippinger and nine outstanding contributors introduce managers to the Complex Adaptive System (CAS) of management, a system that takes into account all of the variables that impact modern enterprises and allows managers to take control from the bottom up. Here, the authors show how McKinsey & Co., Capital One, and Optimark have employed CAS to achieve specific business goals and improve overall corporate fitness. And they bridge theory and practice to provide managers with proven tools and techniques they can use to transform their enterprises into self-renewing, self-organizing systems that are maximally responsive to changing market conditions and opportunities.'.

Signed by the Author on the front free end paper. Dust jacket worn with significant paper losses (see images). Paul Henry (1876 - 1958) was an Irish artist noted for depicting the West of Ireland landscape in a spare Post-Impressionist style. Henry was born in Belfast, Ireland, the son of the Rev Robert Mitchell Henry. He began studying at Methodist College Belfast in 1882 where he first began drawing regularly. At the age of fifteen he moved to the Royal Belfast Academical Institution. He studied art at the Belfast School of Art before going to Paris in 1898 to study at the Académie Julian and at Whistler's Académie Carmen. He married the painter Grace Henry in 1903 and returned to Ireland in 1910. From then until 1919 he lived on Achill Island, where he learned to capture the peculiar interplay of light and landscape specific to the West of Ireland. In 1919 he moved to Dublin and in 1920, he was one of the founders of the Society of Dublin Painters, originally a group of ten artists. Henry designed several railway posters, some of which, notably Connemara Landscape, achieved considerable sales. He separated from his wife in 1929. His second wife was the artist Mabel Young. In the 1920s and 1930s, Henry was Ireland's most renowned artist, significantly shaping the popular image of the west of Ireland. Although he appears to have stopped experimenting with his technique after leaving Achill, and his range is limited, he produced a substantial body of fine images whose familiarity attests to their influence. Henry's use of colour was affected by his red-green colour blindness. He lost his sight during 1945 and did not regain his vision before his death. He died at his home at 1 Sidmonton Square, Bray, County Wicklow, and was survived by his wife, Mabel. Mabel Young (1889 - 1974) was a British artist, who spent her career painting in Ireland. She was born in Ryde, Isle of Wight, on 18 August 1889. She moved to Dublin in 1914 to work as an assistant to her sister, the housekeeping manager of the Shelbourne Hotel. She evaded gunfire on Easter Monday 1916 as she walked home from a day the Phoenix Park via O'Connell Bridge. During the civil war, on 1 July 1922 Young barely escaped a stray bullet that was shot through her living-room window and lodged in the wall. In 1924, Young met Paul Henry whilst holidaying in Kilmacanogue, County Wicklow, becoming his student and lover, until she discovered he was married to Grace Henry. She then went to run a guesthouse at Carrigoona Cottage, Kilmacanogue. Henry moved in with Young at Carrigoona Cottage in 1929, building a studio there. During the summer of 1938, she and Henry visited the Twelve Bens area of Connemara, where Henry was collecting material for his autumn exhibition When Henry lost his sight, Young transcribed the manuscript of his autobiography from his dictation around 1946 and 1947. The resulting book, An Irish portrait (1951), was dedicated to her. The couple moved to 1 Sidmonton Square, Bray, County Wicklow in 1950. After the death of Grace Henry in 1953, Young and Paul married in 1954. She continued to paint after Henry's death in 1958, holding a solo show at the Ritchie Hendriks Gallery, Dublin in 1962. Young died in a private nursing home on 8 February 1974, and is buried in St Patrick's churchyard, Enniskerry, County Wicklow. (Wikipedia).…

First edition of Henry Kaufman's memoir of his life spent on Wall Street. Octavo, original half cloth. Foreword by Paul A. Volker. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the title page, "For Peter with best wishes Henry Kaufman 2/5/05." Fine in a near fine dust jacket. A giant among pundits, Henry Kaufman is the Wall Street legend who founded the science of Federal Reserve watching, now a popular spectator sport. In a career that spans the last 50 years, his views and forecasts have grown increasingly influential, and his pronouncements often move markets, earning him the sobriquet "Dr. Doom" because of his oft-expressed concern about financial excesses and the failure of regulators to take steps to prevent them from occurring. "Policy can not be predicated on the assumption that reasonable financial behavior is the norm," he writes. On Money and Markets is both a personal memoir and a historical retrospective in which he elaborates on these concerns and prescribes a reorganization of the IMF and the World Bank and the creation of a new international entity with oversight of major financial institutions and markets. Kaufman believes himself "more sensitized than many native-born Americans to economic developments that might endanger the country--a concern that dates back to my formative years, when I listened to my grandfather's recitation of the German hyperinflation of the 1920s--how it contributed to the rise of Nazism and thus forced us to flee Germany." Starting as a $45-a-week bank credit analyst in 1949, Kaufman joined Salomon Brothers in 1962 to build a world-class research department, later becoming a senior partner and vice chairman. He was the first person at Salomon to hold a doctoral degree, beginning a trend in the financial community toward greater analytical sophistication, one that would broaden and deepen in later decades. When he began interest-rate analysis and forecasting, information on the Federal Reserve was rare, and his observations quickly gained a large audience of investors, fund managers, economists, and policymakers. He writes, "In spite of its imperfections, the Federal Reserve comes closer to being an independent and objective arbiter and policy body than any other institution in our economic democracy.". …
