Download or read book George Osborne written by Janan Ganesh and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09-24 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ganesh's dissection of what has driven the intellectual and political revival of the Tories is forensic and incisive."- Anne McElvoy, Mail on Sunday"A lively account of the Chancellor's career ... contains a great deal of fascinating new information."- Peter Oborne, Daily Telegraph George Osborne is the most controversial Chancellor of the Exchequer since the Second World War. His austere policies have incited international debate, and his political influence over the government provokes resentment. He is also a survivor with an eye on the premiership. Having authored the most hated Budget of recent times, he now presides over a recovering economy.This is the story of Osborne's breathless ascent to power: a journey driven by luck, guile, resilience, daring and ferocious ambition. As a back-room adviser, MP and Cabinet member, he has enjoyed a starring role or front-row seat at all the Tory dramas since the fall of Thatcher and the dog days of the Major government, from the party's long years in opposition to its eventual and incomplete resurrection. Yet rarely have voters known so little about a politician with such sway over their lives and livelihoods.Fully updated to include Osborne's role in the economic recovery, his appointment of Mark Carney as Governor of the Bank of England, and his prospects as a future Prime Minister, this biography makes sense of a man who is both a personal enigma and a political machine. Based on exhaustive research and access to the innermost parts of the government, it tells the story of George Osborne and the era he has helped to shape.
Download or read book The Chancellor written by Kati Marton and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book The definitive biography of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, detailing the remarkable rise and political brilliance of the most powerful--and elusive--woman in the world. The Chancellor is at once a riveting political biography and an intimate human story of a complete outsider--a research chemist and pastor's daughter raised in Soviet-controlled East Germany--who rose to become the unofficial leader of the West. Acclaimed biographer Kati Marton set out to pierce the mystery of how Angela Merkel achieved all this. And she found the answer in Merkel's political genius: in her willingness to talk with adversaries rather than over them, her skill at negotiating without ever compromising on what's most important to her, her canniness in appointing political rivals to her cabinet and exacting their policies so they have no platform to run against her, the humility to allow others to take credit for things done in tandem, the wisdom to stay out of the papers and off Twitter, and the vision to take advantage of crises to enact bold change. Famously private, the Angela Merkel who emerges in The Chancellor is a role model for anyone interested in gaining and keeping power while holding onto one's moral convictions--and for anyone looking to understand how to successfully bridge huge divisions within society. No modern leader has so ably confronted Russian aggression, provided homes to over a million refugees, and calmly unified Europe at a time when other countries are becoming more divided. But Marton also describes Merkel's many challenges, such as her complicated relationship with President Obama, who she at one point refused to speak to. This captivating portrait shows a woman who has survived extraordinary challenges to transform her own country and return it to the global stage. Timely and revelatory, this great morality tale shows the difference an exceptional leader can make for the greater good of a country and the world.

Excerpt: ... they cannot but perceive how fully justified is the demand for such reforms as shall impart fresh vitality into the principle of Federation.... The Emperor has granted to his own realms institutions in keeping with the age. He recognises that the German nation in its entirety has a right to expect that its political Constitution shall be reorganised; and, as a Federal Prince, he deems it his duty to make his fellowPrinces acquainted with what he considers feasible in this direction, and what he, for his part, is ready to concede. " Austria's plans of reorganisation repose exclusively upon plain and positive adherence to the Federative principle.... Monarchical States, amongst them two Great Powers constitute the German League of States. Such institutions as an individual leader, or a Parliament resulting from direct popular elections, are unsuitable to this League and at variance with its nature. Whosoever demands them aims at nothing more than a mere nominal Confederation; or rather, his real object is the gradual extinction of each several State's vitality--a state of transition towards future nullification--a split in Germany, without which this transi-tion connot be achieved." The Austrian Government then set forth the fundamental idea of its plan of reform as follows;--" Austria will recommend the creation of a Federal Board of Direction, and the periodical convocation of an Assembly of members of the Diets of the different States. Well aware that a heavy counterpoise will be required to guarantee the monarchical principle against the latter institution and to protect the legal independence of the individual States against possible attack, she inclines to the belief that the best guarantee of this kind...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Chancellor, Vol. 1 of 2: Sketches for a Historical Picture Any particular person, he endeavours to make that person's acquaintance, to study his characteristic features at moments and in situations calculated to reveal their true expression, and to sketch them, more or less elaborately, on paper. I may compare the following studies to an artist's observations and drawings, executed as a preliminary to the painting of his picture. From 1870 to the present time, I have enjoyed many Opportunities of contemplating their subject closely and with observant eyes. What these latter have not actually seen, has been derived from trustworthy sources. I have also utilized a former work of my own, dealing with a special episode in the Chancellor's life, the material of which - extracted from a diary, and therefore published in a fragmentary form - will be found here, combined with cognate matter, in its proper place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Chancellor, Vol. 2 of 2: Sketches for a Historical Picture Germany I have never counselled any other course, than in case of war, to rely exclusively upon the national force of Germany. Even later on libels of the above description obtained currency, and were credited, not only by Progressists and Ultramontanists, but by exalted personages at Court. They owed their origin either to mendacious party-spirit or to the misapprehensions of persons who heard the bell but not the knocker. What follows will enable the reader to get at the exact truth, if he will take the trouble to read it by the light of the fifth chapter (bismarck and Austria) of the preceding volume, in reference to Austrian policy during the Crimean war and to the attitude of the German Central States towards France. The contents of that chapter demonstrate that for some consid crable time Bismarck had been compelled to take a French alliance into his calculations, but had never even dreamt of purchasing France's friendship by a cession of German territory.

Download or read book A Chancellor s Tale written by Ralph Snyderman and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-13 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During his fifteen years as chancellor, Dr. Ralph Snyderman helped create new paradigms for academic medicine while guiding the Duke University Medical Center through periods of great challenge and transformation. Under his leadership, the medical center became internationally known for its innovations in medicine, including the creation of the Duke University Health System—which became a model for integrated health care delivery—and the development of personalized health care based on a rational and compassionate model of care. In A Chancellor's Tale Snyderman reflects on his role in developing and instituting these changes. Beginning his faculty career at Duke in 1972, Snyderman made major contributions to inflammation research while leading the Division of Rheumatology and Immunology. When he became chancellor in 1989, he learned that Duke’s medical center required bold new capabilities to survive the advent of managed care and HMOs. The need to change spurred creativity, but it also generated strong resistance. Among his many achievements, Snyderman led ambitious institutional growth in research and clinical care, broadened clinical research and collaborations between academics and industry, and spurred the fields of integrative and personalized medicine. Snyderman describes how he immersed himself in all aspects of Duke’s medical enterprise as evidenced by his exercise in "following the sheet" from the patient's room to the laundry facilities and back, which allowed him to meet staff throughout the hospital. Upon discovering that temperatures in the laundry facilities were over 110 degrees he had air conditioning installed. He also implemented programs to help employees gain needed skills to advance. Snyderman discusses the necessity for strategic planning, fund-raising, and media relations and the relationship between the medical center and Duke University. He concludes with advice for current and future academic medical center administrators. The fascinating story of Snyderman's career shines a bright light on the importance of leadership, organization, planning, and innovation in a medical and academic environment while highlighting the systemic changes in academic medicine and American health care over the last half century. A Chancellor's Tale will be required reading for those interested in academic medicine, health care, administrative and leadership positions, and the history of Duke University.
