  "Falling in love usually happens when you least expect it. But love isn't the only thing that happens without warning." 
  Lexi saw him for the first time in the fourth-floor pediatric cancer clinic. He was tall, handsome, and had a full head of dark hair-nothing like the little kids she was used to meeting during her routine hospital visits. No, Ricky was wholly unexpected. He stared at her, mesmerized by her stunning blue eyes. She looked at him carefully, wondering what his motivation for hanging out in a cancer clinic could be. He smiled confidently, unbothered by her bald scalp. Lexi softly returned the smile. Neither of them aware how this moment would entwine them forever. 
  In a beautiful and heartwarming true story, author Emily Gould weaves the narrative of her daughter's incredible life. The story of Lexi and Ricky begins with a chance meeting but grows into a perfect tale of real teenage romance, the good and the ugly of cancer treatments, and the inspiring power of love overcoming all odds.

  In einer groß angelegten europaweit durchgeführten Studie – mit einem besonderen Schwerpunkt auf die den sog. Visegrád-Staaten – war es Zielsetzung, die Unternehmensethik als Wettbewerbsfaktor zu erforschen. Dies mit dem Ziel, die Voraussetzungen für den nachhaltigen Transfer ethischer Werte in die unternehmerische Praxis (das unternehmerische (Personal-)Management) zu untersuchen und daraus portable Modelle für die Implementierung und Validierung (Zertifizierung, Messung) ethischer Schlüsselwerte zu entwickeln. Leitfrage der Untersuchung war es dabei, wie sich der Bezug zwischen ökonomischem Interesse und ethischer Normenorientierung so vermitteln lässt, dass die Etablierung ethischer Werte im Unternehmensmanagement anstatt zu einer Einschränkung zu einer Erhöhung der Wettbewerbsstärke (Ethik als Erfolgsfaktor) führt.
