Book Description

How can a company effectively communicate its message to customers and prospects all over the world? How can it ensure that its branding messages "travel"? Designed to help executives position and leverage marketing communication in the global arena and use it to their ongoing strategic advantage, Communicating Globally shows how to successfully strategize, select appropriate communication tactics, and then execute a global communication plan that encompasses all sources of communication, both internal and external. Based on the strong theoretical foundations of integrated marketing communication (IMC), Communicating Globally offers a practitioner's perspective on integrated global marketing communication (IGMC) in action through vignettes, four complete case studies of well-recognized multinational brands, and one study case. Praise for Communicating Globally "In the 21st century, the ability of ad agencies to provide worldwide, integrated marketing services for their clients will become essential. Only those marketers and agencies with the ability to brand products and services globally will thrive. Communicating Globally provides a roadmap on how to do it right." O. Butch Drake, president-CEO, American Association of Advertising Agencies "No one can provide a guaranteed formula for future success, but Communicating Globally comes awfully close. By combining an astute knowledge of the global marketplace, emerging trends and technologies, and good old common sense, Don Schultz and Philip Kitchen illuminate the path for successful brand building in the 21st century." Ed Faruolo, vice president, corporate marketing communications, CIGNA Corporation "Don Schultz has done it again! His unique and highly readable approach is a must for companies looking to market globally in the new century. Communicating Globally offers an important road map through the maze of global marketing communications." James R. Gregory, CEO, Corporate Branding, LLC "This book is important because it brings the concept of integrated marketing communications (IMC) into full international focus for the first time. This focus is maintained throughout the whole structure and it makes the book a truly conceptual work. The case studies that illustrate the practical ramification of international IMC yield significant general as well as specific lessons." John Philip Jones, Syracuse University "The 1990's introduced integrated marketing--understanding and communicating relevantly with customers by using information. Communicating Globally now takes the same principles and adapts them to today's dynamic global marketplace. Even better, it is written in a style that makes it easy for a non-marketer to fully understand the importance of managing a brand." John R Wallis, vice president of marketing, Hyatt International Corporation

From the supplier: Privatization in Argentina from 1990 to 1996 produced tangible economic and social welfare benefits for the country. The process freed budgetary resources for use in infrastructure enhancement and social program development, increased economic productivity and government efficiency, attracted investments from abroad and reduced government corruption. The political sphere, however, often obstructed the achievement of these ends by pressing for short-term benefits instead of taking the long-term view. A simple, limited regulatory system, insulated from politics, aids the privatization process.

From the supplier: Privatization in the former communist countries of Russia and Eastern Europe has facilitated the development of democracy but has not fostered its consolidation because these countries have not yet fully realized their goals of generating revenue and increasing efficiency. The theories of economist and 1977 Nobel laureate J.E. Meade may provide a method to facilitate democratic consolidation. Meade suggests that investors and workers form equal partnerships to jointly manage privatized enterprises, and that every state citizen receive a tax-free subsistence payment called a social dividend.

Book Description

This critical reevaluation of the causes of many of Beethoven's illnesses offers detailed accounts of the treatments applied by his physicians and a comprehensive rendering of the composer's final illness, death, and burial. Separate chapters discuss the causes of many of Beethoven's illnesses, his autopsy and the exhumations. Following the rediscovery of the original Latin autopsy report in 1970, the author has discovered two faulty translations, which he argues contributed to errors in earlier medical assumptions. New evidence disputes earlier assertions that Beethoven's deafness resulted from syphilis. This fascinating account of Beethoven's ailments should appeal to Beethoven enthusiasts and to both the medical and music communities.

Book Description

Benjamin Fondane was a poet, literary critic, and philosopher who produced most of his literary works in Paris in the 1930s. He became a disciple of his close friend, the Russian philosopher of existential thought, Lev Shestov. Fondane's fascination with the tragic in his verse can be traced to the belief he shared with Shestov that one's spirit is elevated through personal suffering. Fondane also believed in the magic of poetic creativity and its incredible force as it goes beyond logic and beyond the self, and he declined the importance of aesthetics in favor of the tragic verse. Unlike the Surrealists whom he criticized, Fondane's poetics was not in search for answers: He realized that the joy of existence consists in our continual inner search rather than a presumptuous explanation of the meaning of life.

One-sided blabber.......2001-11-07

I've been avidly researching George Parr as a topic in political science for some time now, and I find this book very dissapointing and upsetting. This is not a history book. This book was written by a man who was personally involved in a ideological battle against George Parr, and says many things that aren't true. He obviously knew all the details from memory, because he didn't cite any sources for his information. The captions for the pictures in the book are extrememly ridiculous. A picture of a dirt road is supposed to convince readers that George Parr kept the people poor. This is silly. If you talk to anyone who lived in Duval County during that time, you will find that he took care of everyone, and everyone loved him. Duval County actually had one of the better school systems in Texas during his reign, and according to one woman "he was our Robinhood." Political scandal, yes. Humanitarian, yes. Good book, no. I hope no one believes everything they read.

An Excellent History Book!.......2001-09-15

This book is an outstanding journal of the "Duke of Duval"
George Parr. Parr had made his mark on history by determining
the final outcome of the 1948 Senate election in Texas. Thanks to
his efforts Lyndon Johnson emerged the winner by an 80 vote margin. This book details how George Parr was finally brought to
justice. You have details of the investigation that resulted in the sucessful prosecution of The "Duke of Duval" and several of
his associates. The details of his downfall will prove to be very
interesting. You will also understand the dominant role that the
"Duke of Duval" had in Texas politics. This is an excellent read.
You will not be dissapointed.

The Fall of the Duke of Duval.......1999-12-14

The Duke of Duval reigned supreme in his South Texas domain in the 1930's while I was in early school years in Corpus Christi, Texas near Duval and Jim Wells Counties. Many people knew what was going on in Duval County since businessmen from Corpus Christi, including my father Clinton E. Smith, CPA, interfaced with George Parr's regime in their normal business dealings.

I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Clark, the author of The Fall of the Duke of Duval at a book signing event at the small library at San Diego, Texas on March 2, 1996. Several hundred copies were signed that day. Mr. Clark's short message was to recognize and help prevent it all from happening again. While at the event, I had occasion to talk to the current Mayor of San Diego, TX and he quietly said to me about the book, its only the tip of the iceberg.

George Berham Parr changed U.S. history by orchestrating a vote fraud that caused Lyndon B. Johnson to become a U.S. Senator and later a good candidate for Vice President with Kennedy to help get southern votes. Many Texans never thought of Johnson as presidential material and after two Kennedy terms LBJ would have been too old to run effectively.

But The Duke of Duval made it happen, leading eventually to LBJ's starting programs that today have been bloated by beltway politicians until they are about to bankrupt the country and destroy our culture.

The speech in Mr. Clark's book, delivered by Mr. Josh Groce, a San Antonio attorney, should be MUST reading for any student of history.

A intriguing expose of politicians via a small Texas County!.......1997-10-01

Robin Hood or Plain Crook? The fall of the Duke of Duval County, written by the G-Man that brought him down after the government had given up ever bringing him to "justice", is a well written insight to a political boss's domain that may have shaped the destiny of the United States by his making sure that LBJ was elected senator in the late 40's. How it was done is revealed along with information on how he lived like a "king" in a poor county where many loved him, but many hated him too. An amazing and fascinating book in which one can detect a certain touch of admiration, by the author, for The Duke who is still held in high esteem by many in the county where his family 'ruled' since the early 1900's. A view of a big fish in a small pond, but with a power that was looked up to by Presidents!
