Hutchinson Charles B. Handy - The New Alchemists |
|
| Charles Handy is just about the only modern management thinker worth reading. His books are wise, entertaining and always contain a strong dose of common sense. This one suggests that "perhaps we are all alchemists at heart. If so, we need to know what makes it real for some and not for others." Which just about sums the book up and captures the wise undercurrent throughout. The New Alchemists is a series of interviews with people who have made something out of nothing. It is enhanced by Elizabeth Handy's own photography which captures each interviewee in their own environment. So we have an at-home and relaxed Richard Branson having a bet with the author that in three years time Virgin will be "by far the best railway", Robert Ayling from British Airways, Terence Conran and Charles Dunstone (Carphone Warehouse). Each short piece offers interesting insights into events that changed their lives and what makes them tick. But perhaps the most interesting parts are the summary chapters with some useful generalisations about the causes of success and some of the pieces on lesser-known folk. Look out for Dee Dawson who set up the first clinic for people with anorexia and Joanne McFarlane thinking big but still working from home with her silk scarf business. This book is aimed at anyone with an interest in people and management. It is likely to make you consider your own motivations and just why some people make things happen. It seems it's something to do with motivation, love and doggedness. -- Steve Morris |

Corgi Books Tom Hart Dyke - The Cloud Garden: A True Story of Adventure, Survival, and Extreme Horticulture |
|
| At first glance The Cloud Garden seems a little unlikely: a pair of twentysomething former public school boys have a great time trekking through Central America and get caught up in a bit of bother. Tom is passionate about flowers and his family lives in a castle in Kent--"Isn't it just super?!". Paul, when he isn't "hacking his way through the jungle", works in the City. If you can get through the kissy kissy PR and the hooray Henry enthusiasm, The Cloud Garden is actually an exciting yarn. Adventurer Paul Winder and orchid enthusiast Tom Hart Dyke met up in Mexico and decided to trek through the Darién Gap--a narrow bit of jungle on the border of Panama and Colombia. Tom wanted to find some new flowers and Paul wanted a challenge. They had almost made it when they were taken captive by a band of FARC guerilla fighters with a grudge against just about everybody, a serious grunge problem and an eye for a juicy ransom for some rich boys. Our heroes survived for nine months and emerged after a harrowing ordeal with a combination of hard work, endurance and a pinch of good luck. This captivating book is well written with youthful zest, a sparky sense of humour and the scary sense that these two just might set off for another adventure next summer. -- Dwight Longenecker |
