Sinopse

Office Rivalries explores the complex role of workplace competition in modern organizations, moving beyond simple notions of "good" or "bad." It examines how competition, a key element of organizational behavior, impacts employee motivation, productivity, and corporate culture, drawing from psychology and management theory. The book highlights that while competition can drive performance, it may also corrode collaboration, especially when it becomes toxic. Interestingly, the type of competition—individual versus team-based—significantly shapes employee behavior and organizational success. 

 
The book begins by establishing a theoretical context, including concepts like social comparison theory. Progressing through four parts, it defines different types of rivalries, explores motivational aspects, investigates cultural dimensions, and synthesizes research for practical strategies. 

 
Through case studies and empirical research, Office Rivalries provides practical insights for managers and employees to navigate workplace competition effectively, emphasizing a balance between healthy competition and mitigating negative consequences, ultimately fostering a fair, transparent, and ethical environment.

In Search of a Boy Named Chester...

Ford S. Worthy

Shortly after the end of World War II, a 21-year-old Navy officer – just back after a year at war in the Pacific – was eager to return to his small hometown in eastern North Carolina for a brief home leave. At the San Francisco airport, a mother travelling to Omaha offered him her seat – a patriotic gesture of gratitude, he believed. There was one condition: the sailor would need to accompany her 10-year-old son and see him safely to his grandmother in Omaha. 
The boy’s name was Chester. The sailor never forgot him. 
Nearly 80 years later, the sailor’s son sets out to give his father a special 100th birthday gift: to discover what became of that precocious boy. 
The book blends memoir, investigative nonfiction, and family history into a poignant and suspenseful journey. Through letters, military records, census and newspaper archives and outreach to strangers-turned-allies, the author pieces together the life of a boy nearly lost to time. Along the way, the story explores themes of memory, intergenerational connection, and the lasting impact of wartime experiences. Rich in historical detail and emotional resonance, the book will appeal to readers of narrative nonfiction, World War II history, and family sagas, and to genealogical sleuths drawn to real-life mysteries. In Search of a Boy Named Chester is a story that shows us how even the most fleeting encounters can reveal who we are and who we may become.

The Stones of Florence

Mary McCarthy

A journey through the glorious Italian city's scenery, history, and culture, from the New York Times–bestselling author of Venice Observed and The Group.

Mary McCarthy's classic celebrates the Italian city often looked upon as the provincial sister to the better-dressed, more "feminine" Venice.


To McCarthy, Florence, or Firenze, is a place of ageless enchantment, from the Duomo to the fortressed palaces. The Renaissance began here; art and architecture flourished. From its roots as a center of medieval trade to its transformation into one of the world's wealthiest cities, McCarthy charts Florence's rich and turbulent history. She introduces a cast of towering real-life characters. Through her probing writer's lens, the poetry of Dante and the magnificent artistry of Raphael and Botticelli come vibrantly alive. Along this illuminating journey, McCarthy offers fascinating bits of trivia: There are no ruins in Florence because the Florentines aren't sentimental about their past; America took its name from a Florentine traveler named Amerigo Vespucci.


From Michelangelo to the Medicis to the story behind a statue's missing head, The Stones of Florence is Mary McCarthy's hymn to this unique city.


This ebook features an illustrated biography of Mary McCarthy including rare images from the author's estate.

The Story of Rolf and the...

Allen French

An Iceland of the sagas: a boy is outlawed with his father over a disputed judgement, and must win the family land back by law and by the bow. Allen French wrote it in 1904 from the Icelandic sources and kept the saga temper — the feuds are settled at the Thing as often as by weapons. It is the best English retelling of saga law for young readers.

Addicted to Anxiety - How to...

Owen O'Kane

A Sunday Times bestseller that redefines anxiety as an addiction—and gives you the tools to finally break the cycle. This program is read by the author.Why do we stay anxious even when we desperately want peace? In Addicted to Anxiety, Sunday Times bestselling author and psychotherapist Owen O’Kane reveals the hidden truth: anxiety isn’t just a feeling—it’s a habit, one we may be unconsciously addicted to. Drawing on over 25 years of clinical experience, O’Kane explains how anxious thought loops, emotional avoidance, and a subconscious belief in the “safety” of worry can keep us stuck. The good news? Once you understand the mechanism, you can break it.Unlike typical anxiety books that focus on symptom relief, Addicted to Anxiety tackles the root cause—our reliance on anxious behaviors to cope, control, or feel safe. With warmth, clarity, and actionable guidance, O’Kane offers tools to help readers identify triggers, challenge core beliefs, and build new habits that lead to a calmer, more empowered life. His signature approach, grounded in neuroscience and psychology but deeply human and accessible, makes complex emotional patterns feel manageable—and changeable.Already a bestseller in the UK and translated into 19 languages, Addicted to Anxiety has struck a global chord with readers, media, and mental health professionals alike. Whether you’re a chronic overthinker, an anxious high-achiever, or simply someone feeling overwhelmed by a turbulent world, this book offers both insight and hope. It's time to break up with anxiety—and finally feel free.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press Essentials
