Nach dem zerstörerischsten aller Kriege ordnet sich die Welt von Grund auf neu. Aber auch neue Konflikte entstehen: So eint in Indien Moslems und Hindus allein der Hass auf die britischen Kolonialherren, in China greifen die Kommunisten nach der Macht, und in Palästina nimmt eine bis heute andauernde blutige Auseinandersetzung ihren Anfang. Japan wird die Demokratie verordnet, während in Europa weiterhin Vertreibung und Gewalt an der Tagesordnung sind. Zwei Weltmächte steigen auf, die fortan die Welt in Einflusssphären teilen: die USA und die Sowjetunion. Temporeich erzählt Victor Sebestyen von Politikern und Revolutionären, von Churchill, Stalin, Truman, Mao oder Gandhi, und von globalen Entwicklungen, die bis heute bestimmend sind. Sein Schauplatz ist die ganze Welt; er betrachtet oft vernachlässigte Ereignisse wie etwa jene in der Türkei oder Aserbaidschan, wo die ersten Stellvertreterkriege zu eskalieren drohen. Und wer weiß schon, wie die Amerikaner und Briten hinter den Kulissen um die atomaren Geheimnisse gerungen haben? Victor Sebestyen vereint kluge Analyse und mitreißendes Erzählen. Sein Buch ist ein Leseerlebnis - und lässt uns verstehen, warum die Welt, in der wir leben, so ist, wie sie heute ist.

Good to Great : Why Some Companies Make the Leap...and Others Don't (9780066620992)

The Challenge Built to Last, the defining management study of the nineties, showed how great companies triumph over time and how long-term sustained performance can be engineered into the DNA of an enterprise from the very beginning. But what about the company that is not born with great DNA? How can good companies, mediocre companies, even bad companies achieve enduring greatness? The Study For years, this question preyed on the mind of Jim Collins. Are there companies that defy gravity and convert long-term mediocrity or worse into long-term superiority? And if so, what are the universal distinguishing characteristics that cause a company to go from good to great? The Standards Using tough benchmarks, Collins and his research team identified a set of elite companies that made the leap to great results and sustained those results for at least fifteen years. How great? After the leap, the good-to-great companies generated cumulative stock returns that beat the general stock market b...

Swedenborg and Esoteric Islam (9780877851837)

This volume makes two essays by Henry Corbin, the eminent French scholar of Islam, available in English for the first time. Although his primary interest was the esoteric tradition of Islam, Corbin was also a lifelong student of the theological works of Emanuel Swedenborg. The first essay, "Mundus Imaginalis, or The Imaginary and the Imaginal," clarifies Corbin's use of the term he coined, mundus imaginalis, or "the imaginal world." This important concept appears in both Swedenborgian and esoteric Islamic spirituality. The second piece, "Comparative Spiritual Hermeneutics," compares the revelation of the internal sense of the sacred boks of two distinct religions, Christianity and Islam.
