She can't reveal the truth—that she's there on a dangerous secret assignment.

Book excerpt: Here is the captivating story of Julia Child's years in France, where she fell in love with French food and found "her true calling." From the moment she and her husband Paul, who worked for the USIS, arrived in the fall of 1948, Julia had an awakening that changed her life. Soon this tall, outspoken gal from Pasadena, California, who didn't speak a word of French and knew nothing about the country, was steeped in the language, chatting with purveyors in the local markets, and enrolled in the Cordon Bleu. She teamed up with two fellow gourmettes, Simone Beck and Louisette Bertholle, to help them with a book on French cooking for Americans. Filled with her husband's beautiful black-and-white photographs as well as family snapshots, this memoir is laced with wonderful stories about the French character, particularly in the world of food, and the way of life that Julia embraced so wholeheartedly. Bon appétit!--From publisher description.

Download or read book Martial Culture in the Lifeways of US Servicemembers and Veterans written by Nathan J. Hogan and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops a new concept—“martial culture”—with which to problematize and reframe thinking surrounding the lifeways of US servicemembers, by exploring the values, beliefs, norms, and rituals they are exposed to and practice during military service. By reuniting the two concepts of servicemember and veteran into one overarching cultural model, the author shows how the concept of martial culture can be used to acknowledge the unbroken, holistic, multidimensional life cycle of an individual. Adopting a comparative mythological approach and drawing upon Roman, Navajo, Hindu, Norse, and Japanese myths that speak to the lived experiences of servicemembers, veterans, and their families, it weaves together ancient voices and contemporary servicemember experiential existences to offer new insight into the psychological experience of servicemembers. It will be of strong interest to psychologists who seek to develop their treatment of veterans by understanding the unique lifeway of service without judgement and offering a balanced, integrated spiritual connection, while pushing back against both inaccurate assumptions of martial lifeways and the influences of industrialized secular approaches to service. It will also appeal to those within the fields of military sociology and psychology.

Download or read book Gulf War Vets written by Kathleen O. Beauchesne and published by Veterans Research. This book was released on 2012 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We are now poised as a country either to repeat the mistakes of the Vietnam era or to create the services and supports that our returning veterans deserve." This research focuses on the importance of using an integrated change management approach to bring together the civilian, corporate, and military communities to support veterans of the Global War on Terror, specifically those veterans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Using force field analysis methodology and original survey research, the study includes a review of the current literature on Gulf War Era veterans in the areas of the labor market, diversity, employee assistance, human resources (HR), behavioral health, disability, and career management. Survey respondents, a selected sample of highly placed officials in corporations, higher education, and the military, identified nine forces they believe have a large impact on change in corporate policies, practices, and programs related to the employment, engagement in productive work, and retention and advancement of veterans. The survey respondents also identified the seven factors they believe are most important in effecting a change in corporations' approach to employing Gulf War Era veterans. The survey examines the nine forces identified and makes concrete recommendations about what can be done to recruit, hire, and retain Gulf War Era II (GWE II) veterans, who are unique because they are more educated and more highly skilled than the veterans of all other wars. The GWE II veterans will be returning home en masse over the coming years and will face a challenging job market. Employers, labor market experts, educators, and human services professionals must be prepared to welcome these veterans home and support them as they navigate the social, political, and economic turbulence challenging our country now and in the coming years. Kathleen O. Beauchesne is a Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, School of Social Policy ad Practice, Social Impact of the Arts Project (SIAP) She received her doctorate in Social Welfare Policy from the University of Pennsylvania, and throughout her career she has directed and led employee behavioral health programs in higher education at the Johns Hopkins Institutions and for private industry. She was the first director of the National Guard's Psychological Health Program, a contract of the Ceridian Corporation. Beauchesne has published several articles on job-based behavioral health programs, organizational change and work and personal life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Valeh Nazemoff recommends leaders apply what she calls ‘mastermind intelligence’ to find strategy sweet spots by being smart about financial, customer and business data."—Sonja Carberry, "Keep Business Strategy in Motion to Stay Competitive," Investor’s Business Daily, Jan. 8, 2015 "It takes a lot of smarts to run a business, but not just any smarts. Four specific mental skills or ‘intelligences’ will help make any entrepreneur more successful, according to Valeh Nazemoff." —Minda Zetlin, "4 Mental Skills Every Business Leader Needs," Inc., Dec. 24, 2014 "Nazemoff offers a framework to help business leaders sort through the endless barrage of data and make decisions effectively…ultimately helping business transform and grow to where you want it to be." —Nicole Fallon, Business News Daily, Dec. 17, 2014 "I highly recommend that you look at your organization through the lens of The Four Intelligences of the Business Mind. If you do so, your business will improve in unexpected ways." —Mark Waldman, Executive MBA Faculty, Loyola Marymount University "The Four Intelligences of the Business Mind uses a revolutionary four-quadrant-based approach to teach you how to retrain your brain to optimize and transform your business. Valeh Nazemoff has written an excellent book with a commonsense approach and clear guidance." —Shaun Khalfan, Chief of Cyber Infrastructure, Department of the Navy A new pragmatic synthesis of organizational psychology, business analytics, and multiple intelligences theory, The Four Intelligences of the Business Mind lays out a scheme of four discrete but interlocking types of intelligence essential to business success. These intelligences are scalable and transferable from the individual leader to the organizational ecosystem. This short book teaches executives first to analyze and train their own brains in these four intelligences; then to transform their organizations by applying their sharpened quadruplex intelligence to their business analyses and decisions; and finally to train and incentivize their companies to map onto a collective organizational scale the mental transformation modeled by the "mastermind" leader. The four essential business intelligences identified by IT executive and organizational psychologist Valeh Nazemoff are financial intelligence, customer intelligence, data intelligence, and mastermind intelligence. Financial intelligence informs your ability to reinvest and regrow your business boldly but prudently in the light of predictive, risk, and business analytics. Customer intelligence informs your ability to rethink your approaches to attracting and keeping customers using customer, web, mobile, social, big data, and behavioral analytics. Data intelligence informs your ability to reinvent and recreate information in automated graphical representations to enable rapid decision-making using visual, cloud, web, and operational analytics, AI, and distance collaboration platforms. Finally, mastermind intelligence involves your ability through leadership and team exercises to impart to your employees and organization the same transformative honing and integration of business intelligences as you have undergone yourself. "Practical, relevant, insightful, engaging, and a pleasant read, The Four Intelligences of the Business Mind puts human decision making into a whole new light, revealing practical steps that will allow you to reinvent your business and customer relationships!" —James Brady, PhD, FHIMSS, Chief Information Officer, Kaiser Permanente Orange County "An invaluable book that shows you how to harness the inevitable transformations in business by understanding your mind better." —Alan Komet, Vice President, Global Sales Operations, FalconStor Software, Inc. "A must-read book for every business person." —Chuck Corjay, Ret. Chairman, AFCEA International "Valeh Nazemoff has written an intelligent, thoughtful book full of insight and practical advice. The Four Intelligences of the Business Mind reframes the way our minds work, and in doing so transforms how we drive business forward. This book is a must-read!" —Joe DiStefano, Senior Vice President and Market Executive, Cardinal Bank
