Book excerpt: Excerpt from Working Men's Social Clubs and Educational Institutes IN tracing the origin and nature of the recent movement On behalf Of Working Men's Clubs and Institutes, we must look back forty years to the agitation in favour Of Mechanics' Institutes, originated by that true friend Of the working classes, Dr. Birkbeck; and to which the illustrious man who has led the van in SO many great enterprises for the good Of humanity, Lord Brougham, gave such distinguished assist ance. That agitation was purely an educational effort, in tended originally to teach mechanics the correct knowledge and principles Of their own trades. Then came various nu connected intermittent attempts to provide what were called Reading-rooms for working men, in which the chief element was the supplying a place Where time might be innocently passed, but where neither education, social inter course, nor recreation was Offered, except SO far as reading a newspaper or book in the same room with other people might be supposed to afford all or either. Next came the formation of Mutual Improvement Societies, which met chiefly in school rooms, and aimed at Classes, Discussions, and especially at the preparation Of short papers on interesting and improving topics. There was Often a good deal of the sociable spirit in these little organizations, but they were seldom long-lived. The writer formed one on a more comprehensive plan in 1842 at Yeovil, Somersetshire, for the working men Of the town generally, which aimed to be a fellowship for mutual benefit in various ways, but chiefly educational, with very little Of the recreation element in it, and without any Of the Club features properly so called. It was well appreciated and very useful for a time, but after he left the town dishonest practices broke it up. In the same year, that excellent institution, the People's College at Sheffield, was established by a very earnest Band able friend of the people, the late Rev. R. L. Bayly, of that town, which has done great good there, and is still, we believe, as useful as ever. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.
Download or read book Complexity Learning and Organizations written by Walter R.J. Baets and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-01-24 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating book argues for a new way of looking at the world and at human systems, companies or (Western) society as a whole. Walter R.J. Baets argues that we should let go of our drive to control, manage and organize, in order to be able to create an ideal environment for continuous learning, both for ourselves and for our collaborators. Arguing in favour of a holistic management approach, and very much in opposition to the short-term shareholder value driven approaches that are popular today, Baets’ book develops a logic founded in real life observations, examples and cases that every reader will recognize in their daily practice. It guides the reader to understand an alternative paradigm and allows them finally to be able to work with the dynamics of business on a daily basis. A must-read for students of complexity, strategy and organizational behaviour, this well-researched, well-argued book skilfully guides the reader through this interesting subject.
