Strategies for Success in the Online Marketplace

From Leonardo Da Vinci to Oliver Sacks: the first history of the western polymath, from the Renaissance to the present "An absorbing group portrait and intellectual history."--Kirkus Reviews "An admirable mixture of industry and erudition."--Robert Wilson, Wall Street Journal From Leonardo Da Vinci to John Dee and Comenius, from George Eliot to Oliver Sacks and Susan Sontag, polymaths have moved the frontiers of knowledge in countless ways. But history can be unkind to scholars with such encyclopedic interests. All too often these individuals are remembered for just one part of their valuable achievements. In this engaging, erudite account, renowned cultural historian Peter Burke argues for a more rounded view. Identifying 500 western polymaths, Burke explores their wide-ranging successes and shows how their rise matched a rapid growth of knowledge in the age of the invention of printing, the discovery of the New World and the Scientific Revolution. It is only more recently that the further acceleration of knowledge has led to increased specialization and to an environment that is less supportive of wide-ranging scholars and scientists. Spanning the Renaissance to the present day, Burke changes our understanding of this remarkable intellectual species.

A Cultural History from Leonardo da Vinci to Susan Sontag

The Polymath

We've outsourced too much of our thinking. How do we get it back?Have you ever followed your GPS device to a deserted parking lot? Or unquestioningly followed the advice of an expert—perhaps a doctor or financial adviser—only to learn later that your own thoughts and doubts were correct? And what about the stories we've all heard over the years about sick patients—whether infected with Ebola or COVID-19—who were sent home or allowed to travel because busy staff people were following a protocol to the letter rather than using common sense? Why and how do these kinds of things happen?As Harvard lecturer and global trend watcher Vikram Mansharamani shows in this eye-opening and perspective-shifting book, our complex, data-flooded world has made us ever more reliant on experts, protocols, and technology. Too often, we've stopped thinking for ourselves. With stark and compelling examples drawn from business, sports, and everyday life, Mansharamani illustrates how in a very real sense we have outsourced our thinking to a troubling degree, relinquishing our autonomy.Of course, experts, protocols, and computer-based systems are essential to helping us make informed decisions. What we need is a new approach for integrating these information sources more effectively, harnessing the value they provide without undermining our ability to think for ourselves. The author provides principles and techniques for doing just that, empowering readers with a more critical and nuanced approach to making decisions.Think for Yourself is an indispensable guide for those looking to restore self-reliant thinking in a data-driven and technology-dependent yet overwhelmingly uncertain world.

Restoring Common Sense in an Age of Experts and Artificial Intelligence

Think for Yourself

In "The Essays of Adam Smith," an influential collection of his essays written during the 18th century, Smith explores a range of topics, from moral philosophy to economics and the nature of human relationships. His prose is characterized by clarity and eloquence, reflecting the Enlightenment ideals of reason and empiricism. These essays are foundational texts in both moral philosophy and economic theory, merging his philosophical inquiries with practical considerations of trade and commerce, illustrating how personal ethics intertwine with broader societal dynamics. Adam Smith, often hailed as the father of modern economics, was a Scottish philosopher and economist whose groundbreaking ideas reshaped Enlightenment thought. His personal experiences and academic pursuits at the University of Glasgow informed his understanding of human behavior in economic contexts, shaping his views on altruism, self-interest, and the invisible hand of the market. These essays provide critical insight into the formative ideas that led to his monumental work, "The Wealth of Nations." I highly recommend "The Essays of Adam Smith" for readers interested in understanding the philosophical underpinnings of economic thought and social behavior. This collection not only elucidates Smith's profound insights but also serves as a vital commentary on the moral implications of economic practices, making it essential reading for students, scholars, and anyone intrigued by the interplay of ethics and economics in society.

Enriched edition. Foundational Essays in Economic Philosophy

The Essays of Adam Smith

In "The Wealth of Nations," Adam Smith lays the groundwork for modern economic theory through a thorough exploration of the nature of commerce, trade, and wealth distribution. Smith's literary style is characterized by a systematic and analytical approach, employing clear prose and compelling arguments that enhance the rigor of his discourse. Written in the context of the burgeoning Industrial Revolution, the text critiques mercantilism while championing free markets and the division of labor, thereby influencing not only economics but also political philosophy and social thought. Adam Smith, a key figure of the Scottish Enlightenment, was profoundly shaped by the intellectual environment of 18th-century Scotland, where inquiry and individualism flourished. His experience as a moral philosopher and his study of human behavior informed his economic theories, integrating ethical considerations with the mechanics of trade. Smith's fascination with human motives and social organization is intricately woven throughout the text, reflecting his belief that economics cannot be divorced from the moral framework of society. This seminal work is essential for readers seeking to comprehend the foundations of economic thought and policy. Smith's insights remain profoundly relevant, urging readers to consider the impact of individual actions on the collective economy. Whether one is a student of economics, history, or philosophy, "The Wealth of Nations" remains a pivotal reading that invites reflection on the principles governing wealth and social progress.

This book explains Chester Barnard's management theory clearly, faithfully, and systematically. When Barnard published The Functions of the Executive in 1938, it caused a paradigm shift in the research area of management. He aimed to clarify what executives should do, and how and why, as he argued that executive functions and processes are deeply related to specialization, incentive, authority and communication, decision making, and responsibility and leadership. Thus, The Functions of the Executive is essential reading for management students. This book serves as an introductory guide for undergraduate and graduate students to help them understand Barnard's management theory. 


In addition, the book enables researchers to understand how Barnard developed his theory. He accumulated a great amount of experience in managing diverse organizations in both the private and public sectors. Then he gradually shifted his focus from scalar organizations, authority,and vertical communication to lateral organizations, responsibility, and horizontal communication. 


Finally, this book offers businesspeople helpful insights to create an innovative style of management. As a practitioner, Barnard recognized not only the importance of science but also that of art and value. Experienced businesspeople use not only formal knowledge but also their behavioral and personal knowledge, intuition, business sense, value, and executive art to understand the whole situation, balance conflicting factors, and produce creative solutions. Thus, this book also explores the management abilities that businesspeople need to develop.

Adam Smith's "The Wealth of Nations" is a groundbreaking economic treatise that revolutionized the field of political economy. Published in 1776, this book is a masterful analysis of capitalism, free markets, and the division of labor. Smith's writing style is clear, logical, and persuasive, making complex economic concepts accessible to a wider audience. The Wealth of Nations is considered a cornerstone of classical economics and has had a lasting impact on economic policy and theory. From the invisible hand to the division of labor, Smith's ideas continue to shape modern economic thought. His emphasis on self-interest as a driving force behind economic progress remains relevant in today's global economy. Smith's careful examination of market forces and government intervention provides timeless insights into the workings of the economy. I highly recommend "The Wealth of Nations" to anyone interested in understanding the fundamental principles of economics and the role of markets in society.
