"Scar" Gordon was on the French Riviera recovering from a tour of combat in Southeast Asia, but he hadn't given up his habit of scanning the Personals in the newspaper. One ad in particular leapt out at him: "ARE YOU A COWARD? This is not for you. We badly need a brave man. He must be 23 to 25 years old, in perfect health, at least six feet tall, weigh about 190 pounds, fluent English, with some French, proficient in all weapons, some knowledge of engineering and mathematics essential, willing to travel, no family or emotional ties, indomitably courageous and handsome of face and figure. Permanent employment, very high pay, glorious adventure, great danger. You must apply in person, rue Dante, Nice, 2me étage, apt. D." How could you not answer an ad like that, especially when it seemed to describe you perfectly? Well, except maybe for the "handsome" part, but that was in the eye of the beholder anyway. So he went to that apartment and was greeted by the most beautiful woman he'd ever met. She seemed to have many names, but agreed he could call her "Star." A pretty appropriate name, as it turned out, for the empress of twenty universes. Robert A. Heinlein's one true fantasy novel, " Glory Road "is as much fun today as when he wrote it after "Stranger in a Strange Land." Heinlein proves himself as adept with sword and sorcery as with rockets and slide rules and the result is exciting, satirical, fast-paced, funny and tremendously readable -- a favorite of all who have read it. "Glory Road" is a masterpiece of escapist entertainment with a typically Heinleinian sting in its tail. Tor is proud to return this all-time classic to hardcover to be discovered by a new generation of readers.

Описание: Dit boek gaat over data, en hoe ermee om te gaan. Vanuit een historische beschrijving van waar wij nu staan aan het einde van de Covid-19 pandemie en alle (technologische) veranderingen die daar het gevolg van zijn geweest, nemen de auteurs de lezer mee naar een toekomst die er al is. Daarbij hebben organisaties de keuze uit twee scenario`s: of een blauw proces volgen van het doorvoeren van drastische kostenreducties waarbij de digitalisering als een efficiencytool wordt ingezet, of kiezen voor Digitale transformatie 4.0 met een disruptief leidmotief. De auteurs zijn deskundigen van diverse pluimage, niet alleen visionairs, maar ook strategen, communicatiecoaches, economen en IT en privacy advocaten. En dit leidt tot vele verrassende en onverwachte inzichten: dit boek kan uw ondernemersvisie op zijn kop zetten!Aan de orde komen de vele technische ontwikkelingen, zoals artificiele intelligentie, blockchain en quantum computers. Maar daarnaast komen ook vele andere aspecten aan de orde zoals psychologie, taal, goed bestuur en `compliance`. De lezer wordt vertrouwd gemaakt met kreten als `emerging technologies` en `disruptors rules`. Al met al biedt het een echt holistische kijk, geillustreerd met vele aansprekende voorbeelden, beelden, statistieken en andere figuren, die het boek verlevendigen. De grootste waarde van het boek is dat ook de stap wordt gemaakt om die theorie te vertalen naar de dagelijkse operatie van een onderneming. Ook door aandacht te besteden aan de juridische aspecten. Dit in het besef dat complexe veranderingen, zeker waar het gaat om slim gebruik van data van bestaande ondernemingen en mensen, niet plaats kunnen vinden zonder grondige kennis van het (Europese) recht en de ervaring en vaardigheid die ook om te zetten in goede afspraken.Besteed een paar dagen aan het doorlezen van dit boek, zodat je als ondernemer je directie, management en zelfs je CIO/CTO `s kan verbazen met de opgedane en actuele kennis. En het helpt je zeker om keuzes te maken voor de toekomst en de eigen strategie, visie en missie van je organisatie aan te passen aan de technologische golf die er over ons heen spoelt. "Kan een boek over data jouw ondernemersvisie op zijn kop zetten? Ja, dat kan met dit boek!" Ernst van Win, Partner De Clercq Advocaten en Notariaat"Dit boek geeft vele handreikingen en doorkijkjes naar hoe het beter kan. De schrijvers zeilen `strak aan de wind`, en zorgen ervoor dat u geprikkeld wordt. We complimenteren de auteurs met deze state-of-the-art bundeling van kennis en kunde!" Wouter Bronsgeest, voorzitter KNVI & Sandra de Waart"Maak niet de fout te denken dat het allemaal zo`n vaart niet zal lopen. Uw voorsprong heeft u nu met dit boek in handen!"

Описание: A never-before-published masterpiece from science fiction's greatest writer, rediscovered after more than half a century. When Joel Johnston first met Jinny Hamilton, it seemed like a dream come true. And when she finally agreed to marry him, he felt like the luckiest man in the universe. There was just one small problem. He was broke. His only goal in life was to become a composer, and he knew it would take years before he was earning enough to support a family. But Jinny wasn't willing to wait. And when Joel asked her what they were going to do for money, she gave him a most unexpected answer. She told him that her name wasn't really Jinny Hamilton---it was Jinny Conrad, and she was the granddaughter of Richard Conrad, the wealthiest man in the solar system. And now that she was sure that Joel loved her for herself, not for her wealth, she revealed her family's plans for him---he would be groomed for a place in the vast Conrad empire and sire a dynasty to carry on the family business. Most men would have jumped at the opportunity. But Joel Johnston wasn't most men. To Jinny's surprise, and even his own, he turned down her generous offer and then set off on the mother of all benders. And woke up on a colony ship heading out into space, torn between regret over his rash decision and his determination to forget Jinny and make a life for himself among the stars. He was on his way to succeeding when his plans--and the plans of billions of others--were shattered by a cosmic cataclysm so devastating it would take all of humanity's strength and ingenuity just to survive.

Описание: This is the seminal novel of a young man's education as a member of an elite, paternalistic non-military organization of leaders dedicated to preserving human civilization, the Solar Patrol, a provocative parallel to Heinlein's famous later novel, "Starship Troopers "(which is about the military). Only the best and brightest--the strongest and the most courageous--ever manage to become Space Cadets, at the Space Academy. They are in training to be come part of the elite guard of the solar system, accepting missions others fear, taking risks no others dare, and upholding the peace of the solar system for the benefit of all. But before Matt Dodson can earn his rightful place in the ranks, his mettle is to be tested in the most severe and extraordinary ways--ways that change him forever, from the midwestern American boy into a man of the Solar Patrol.

Описание: From Grandmaster Robert A. Heinlein comes a long-lost first novel, written in 1939 and never before published, introducing ideas and themes that would shape his career and define the genre that is synonymous with his name.
July 12, 1939 Perry Nelson is driving along the palisades when suddenly another vehicle swerves into his lane, a tire blows out, and his car careens off the road and over a bluff. The last thing he sees before his head connects with the boulders below is a girl in a green bathing suit, prancing along the shore....
When he wakes, the girl in green is a woman dressed in furs and the sun-drenched shore has transformed into snowcapped mountains. The woman, Diana, rescues Perry from the bitter cold and takes him inside her home to rest and recuperate.
Later they debate the cause of the accident, for Diana is unfamiliar with the concept of a tire blowout and Perry cannot comprehend snowfall in mid-July. Then Diana shares with him a vital piece of information: The date is now January 7. The year...2086.
When his shock subsides, Perry begins an exhaustive study of global evolution over the past 150 years. He learns, among other things, that a United Europe was formed and led by Edward, Duke of Windsor; former New York City mayor LaGuardia served two terms as president of the United States; the military draft was completely reconceived; banks became publicly owned and operated; and in the year 2003, two helicopters destroyed the island of Manhattan in a galvanizing act of war. This education in the ways of the modern world emboldens Perry to assimilate to life in the twenty-first century.
But education brings with it inescapable truths -- the economic and legal systems, the government, and even the dynamic between men and women remain alien to Perry, the customs of the new day continually testing his mental and emotional resolve. Yet it is precisely his knowledge of a bygone era that will serve Perry best, as the man from 1939 seems destined to lead his newfound peers even further into the future than they could have imagined.
A classic example of the future history that Robert Heinlein popularized during his career, "For Us, The Living" marks both the beginning and the end of an extraordinary arc of political, social, and literary crusading that comprises his legacy. Heinlein could not have known in 1939 how the world would change over the course of one and a half centuries, but we have our own true world history to compare with his brilliant imaginings, rendering "For Us, The Living" not merely a novel, but a time capsule view into our past, our present, and perhaps our future.
The novel is presented here with an introduction by acclaimed science fiction writer Spider Robinson and an afterword by Professor Robert James of the Heinlein Society.
