Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1950s’ Norfolk teenage cousins Francis and Gordon Jones earn their reputation as ‘The Boy Detectives’ in the first of a series of extraordinary adventures. Adrian Wright’s delightful spoof of boys’ stories of the 1950s comes with a strong dash of retro and a sharp jab of adult perspective. With an eclectic mix of characters – Mrs Jones (Francis’ corset-making mother), the Reverend Challis (who always takes a keen interest in the boys’ progress), Lady Darting (the domineering village grandee), Bunty Rogers (the striptease artiste) – Francis and Gordon unravel six perplexing mysteries. The Voice of Doom is Francis and Gordon’s first foray into the art of mystery solving, taking on cases from the strange happenings at St Mildred’s School for the Advancement of Derserving Girls, to the affair of the Pearl of Thalia. The local constabulary might be scratching their heads, but Francis and Gordon are on the case. Inspired by the ‘Norman and Henry Bones’ stories of Anthony Wilson, The Voice of Doom combines mystery with a sharp comic edge, resulting in a rare treat for fans of comical novels.

Book Nuremberg s Voice of Doom

Download or read book Nuremberg s Voice of Doom written by Wolfe Frank and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The memoirs of Wolfe Frank, which lay hidden in an attic for twenty-five years, are a unique and highly moving behind-the-scenes account of what happened at Nuremberg the greatest trial in history seen through the eyes of a witness to the whole proceedings. They include important historical information never previously revealed. In an extraordinarily explicit life story, Frank includes his personal encounters, inside and outside the courtroom, with all the war criminals, particularly Hermann Goering. This, therefore, is a unique record that adds substantially to what is already publicly known about the trials and the defendants.Involved in proceedings from day one, Frank translated the first piece of evidence, interpreted the judges opening statements, and concluded the trials by announcing the sentences to the defendants (and several hundred million radio listeners) which earned him the soubriquet Voice of Doom.Prior to the war, Frank, who was of Jewish descent, was a Bavarian playboy, an engineer, a resistance worker, a smuggler (of money and Jews out of Germany) and was declared to be an enemy of the State to be shot on sight. Having escaped to Britain, he was interned at the outbreak of war but successfully campaigned for his release and eventually allowed to enlist in the British Army in which he rose to the rank of Captain. Unable to speak English prior to his arrival, by the time of the Nuremberg trials he was described as the finest interpreter in the world.A unique character of extreme contrasts Frank was a playboy, a risk taker and an opportunist. Yet he was also a man of immense courage, charm, good manners, integrity and ability. He undertook the toughest assignment imaginable at Nuremberg to a level that was satisfactory alike to the bench, the defence and the prosecution and he played a major role in materially shortening the enormously difficult procedures by an estimated three years.

Book excerpt: DISCOVER SMALL, TEAM-BASED CHANGES THAT HAVE COMPANY-WIDE RESULTS. The teams we work in amplify our individual efforts, yet we constantly struggle to accomplish what is possible. You can see all the problems in a typical weekly meeting. No planning. Missing goals. Muddled communication. We think just bringing our personal hopes and desires will be enough. It’s not. The groups we work in need collective habits as much as individuals need better personal habits. Determining team habits for things like planning, decision-making, and prioritization produce reliability and ease for everyone. Team habits create better work and let people work better together. In Team Habits, Charlie Gilkey explains how the revolution in personal habits has an even greater potential when applied to teams. With practical exercises, a Team Habits Quiz to evaluate areas for improvement, and a guide to create a team habits roadmap, Team Habits will help you transform your group so team members can flourish and thrive. If changing the smallest habit can yield powerful results for an individual, then just imagine what it can do for your team.

Book Masters of Doom

Download or read book Masters of Doom written by David Kushner and published by Random House. This book was released on 2003-04-24 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters of Doom is the amazing true story of the Lennon and McCartney of video games: John Carmack and John Romero. Together, they ruled big business. They transformed popular culture. And they provoked a national controversy. More than anything, they lived a unique and rollicking American Dream, escaping the broken homes of their youth to co-create the most notoriously successful game franchises in history—Doom and Quake—until the games they made tore them apart. Americans spend more money on video games than on movie tickets. Masters of Doom is the first book to chronicle this industry’s greatest story, written by one of the medium’s leading observers. David Kushner takes readers inside the rags-to-riches adventure of two rebellious entrepreneurs who came of age to shape a generation. The vivid portrait reveals why their games are so violent and why their immersion in their brilliantly designed fantasy worlds offered them solace. And it shows how they channeled their fury and imagination into products that are a formative influence on our culture, from MTV to the Internet to Columbine. This is a story of friendship and betrayal, commerce and artistry—a powerful and compassionate account of what it’s like to be young, driven, and wildly creative. “To my taste, the greatest American myth of cosmogenesis features the maladjusted, antisocial, genius teenage boy who, in the insular laboratory of his own bedroom, invents the universe from scratch. Masters of Doom is a particularly inspired rendition. Dave Kushner chronicles the saga of video game virtuosi Carmack and Romero with terrific brio. This is a page-turning, mythopoeic cyber-soap opera about two glamorous geek geniuses—and it should be read while scarfing down pepperoni pizza and swilling Diet Coke, with Queens of the Stone Age cranked up all the way.”—Mark Leyner, author of I Smell Esther Williams
