A Maritime Archaeology of Eastern Mediterranean Economies

Rivian entered the modern auto industry with a proposition that was easy to summarize but difficult to execute: build electric vehicles that feel premium without feeling delicate, capable without feeling theatrical, and modern without feeling disposable. In a market that often sold EVs either as tech statements or efficiency tools, Rivian placed "adventure" at the center-then set out to prove that the idea could be engineered into design, packaging, software, charging confidence, and service behavior.

This book follows that effort from the brand's early identity choices through the reality of manufacturing, supply chains, and public-market scrutiny. It traces how the R1T and R1S functioned as credibility flagships, how Rivian's software-first approach shaped customer expectations, and how charging access and service capacity became inseparable from trust. Along the way, it examines the commercial spine of the business and the partnerships that helped Rivian borrow scale where it mattered most.

The heart of the story is Rivian's R1-to-R2 transition: the attempt to expand into a more accessible segment without diluting what made the brand distinctive. Here, "adventure" becomes less a tagline than a management system-one that must align product definition, industrial commitments, and a coherent ownership experience. The result is a clear-eyed account of how a newcomer tries to compete with giants in an industry where identity, software, and execution either reinforce one another-or unravel.

Rivian and the R1-to-R2 Strategy

Adventure, Electrified

Managing Aviation Operations

Airports are dynamic infrastructure assets and organisations, which are subject to constant change as a result of increasing traffic, ownership changes, environmental, economic, safety and technological changes. Customers (airlines, passengers and freight organisations) and stakeholders (government, community) also put pressure on airports to change.This book examines the pressures to change faced by airports of different sizes, from small community airports to intercontinental mega-hubs, and will help readers to understand and anticipate the changes which will happen at airports with which they are involved. The objective of this book is to look at the broad value chain of airports and the roles of the various players within the value chain, examining how airports can manage their staff, stakeholders and customers, the ways in which governance and staffing models can be evolved to cope with the emerging challenges faced by the industry, and risks faced by airports, together with mitigation approaches. Each chapter ends with a series of questions which can be applied when considering a specific airport. The key target users of those questions are board members and investors, who need to grill management to ensure that they fully understand and appreciate the airport under consideration, but the questions will also be useful prompts for any reader of the book.This book has, therefore, been written for the person who is starting to work in or for the airport industry - as an airport employee, a board member, a regulator, a supplier of equipment or services to airports, an investor in airports, anyone engaged in non-aviation work such as airport retail or property development, or an airline staff member who has to deal with airports as a user.

By the New York Times’s Global Economics Correspondent, an extraordinary journey to understand the worldwide supply chain—exposing both the fascinating pathways of manufacturing and transportation that bring products to your doorstep, and the ruthless business logic that has left local communities at the mercy of a complex and fragile network for their basic necessities."A tale that will change how you look at the world."&nbsp;—Mark LeibovichNamed a Best Book of the Year by Foreign Policy and The Aspen Institute * Longlisted for the Porchlight Business Book AwardHow does the wealthiest country on earth run out of protective gear in the middle of a public health catastrophe? How do its parents find themselves unable to locate crucially needed infant formula? How do its largest companies spend billions of dollars making cars that no one can drive for a lack of chips?The last few years have radically highlighted the intricacy and fragility of the global supply chain. Enormous ships were stuck at sea, warehouses overflowed, and delivery trucks stalled. The result was a scarcity of everything from breakfast cereal to medical devices, from frivolous goods to lifesaving necessities. And while the scale of the pandemic shock was unprecedented, it underscored the troubling reality that this system built on Just in Time principles was fundamentally at risk of descending into chaos all along. And it still is. Sabotaged by financial interests, a loss of transparency in markets, and worsening working conditions for the people tasked with keeping the gears turning, our global supply chain has become perpetually on the brink of collapse.In How the World Ran Out of Everything, award-winning journalist Peter S. Goodman reveals the fascinating innerworkings of our supply chain and the factors that have led to its constant, dangerous vulnerability. His reporting takes readers deep into the elaborate system, showcasing the triumphs and struggles of the human players who operate it—from factories in Asia and an almond grower in Northern California, to a group of striking railroad workers in Texas, to a truck driver who Goodman accompanies across hundreds of miles of the Great Plains. Through their stories, Goodman weaves a powerful argument for reforming a supply chain to become truly reliable and resilient, demanding a radical redrawing of the bargain between labor and shareholder interests, and deeper attention paid to how we get the things we need.From one of the most respected voices in economic journalism working today, How the World Ran Out of Everything is a fiercely smart, deeply informative look at how our supply chain operates, and why its reform is crucial—not only to avoid dysfunction in our day to day lives, but to protect the fate of our global fortunes.&nbsp;This riveting work of economic journalism breaks down the complexities of modern globalization and reveals: <ul><li>The Just in Time Fallacy: Discover how a sensible manufacturing philosophy was twisted to prioritize shareholder interests over resilience, setting the stage for global shortages and widespread inflation.</li><li>Human Cost of Efficiency: Journey from factories in Asia to the highways of the Great Plains and meet the human players—from truck drivers to railroad workers—exploited to keep the gears of commerce turning.</li><li>Monopoly Power and Price Hikes: Investigate how decades of deregulation allowed a few monopolistic companies to dominate key industries, engineering scarcity to boost profits during a worldwide catastrophe.</li><li>The Future of the Supply Chain: Explore the urgent arguments for reforming the system through reshoring and nearshoring to build a more reliable and resilient network for the things we need.</li></ul>
