Sommario/riassunto |
|
The world is at risk and the supply chain is not exempt Supply risk used to be defined as the potential for strikes by transport workers, fires at a key supplier's plant, or missed deliveries. That simple vision no longer applies. For the last 50 years, the global economies have benefited from the stability afforded by Pax Group of Seven - the longest period of uninterrupted economic advance.Previously published in: Physical Distribution and Logistics Management, Volume 34, Number 9, 2004 |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Jean Feraca's road to self-fulfillment has been as quirky and demanding as the characters in her incredible memoir. A veteran of several decades of public radio broadcasting, Feraca is also a writer and a poet. She is a talk show host beloved for her unique mixture of the humanities, poetry, and journalism, and is the creator of the pioneering international cultural affairs radio program Here on Earth: Radio |

without Borders. In this searing memoir, Feraca traces her own emergence. She pulls back the curtain on her private life, revealing unforgettable portraits of the characters in her brawling Italian-American family: Jenny, the grandmother, the devil woman who threw Casey Stengel down an excavation pit; Dolly, the mother, a cross between Long John Silver and the Wife of Bath, who in battling mental illness becomes the scourge of a Lutheran nursing home; and Stephen, the brilliant but troubled older brother, an anthropologist adopted by a Sioux tribe. In a new chapter that reinforces and ties together the book's exploration of the multiple forms of love, Jean introduces us to Roger, a Wildman and her husband's best friend with whom she, too, develops an extraordinary intimacy. A selection of fifteen of Feraca's poems add counterpoint to her engaging prose. |
