But we all know, this is not a just a problem for the elite. The broad-based reaction to this chaotic, unmanageable assault has been to retrench, and to focus on immediate, controllable decisions. In the process, we lose sight of the horizon. More dangerous still, is the shift we've seen from value creation to wealth creation, where information technology 1.0 has enabled aStrategic planningOrganizational changeDecision makingChange (Psychology)Diffusion of innovationsElectronic books.Strategic planning.Organizational change.Decision making.Change (Psychology)Diffusion of innovations.658.4/03Laudicina Paul A998189MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461868203321Beating the global odds2289608UNINA02062nam 2200565 a 450 991045789240332120200520144314.01-283-25912-597866132591271-61121-073-9(CKB)2550000000054485(StDuBDS)AH24486093(SSID)ssj0000536724(PQKBManifestationID)12223616(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000536724(PQKBWorkID)10550730(PQKB)10941722(MiAaPQ)EBC3007466(Au-PeEL)EBL3007466(CaPaEBR)ebr10498890(CaONFJC)MIL325912(OCoLC)923617836(EXLCZ)99255000000005448520110329d2011 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtccrFlames beyond Gettysburg[electronic resource] the Confederate expedition to the Susquehanna River, June 1863 /Scott L.

Rosenzweig and Levinas thought in relation to different philosophical schools and wrote in disparate styles. Their personal relations to Judaism and Christianity were markedly dissimilar. To Gibbs, however, the two thinkers possess basic affinities with each other. The book offers important insights into how philosophy is continually being altered by its encounter with other traditions.Judaism and philosophyJudaism20th centuryJewish philosophyJudaism and philosophy.JudaismJewish philosophy.181.06Gibbs Robert1958-1796511MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910963014803321Correlations in Rosenzweig and Levinas4340223UNINA
