The Leadership Challenge, Third Edition (Hardcover IN DUST JACKET CONDITION GOOD-PUBLISHED BY JOSSEY-BASS-THIRD EDITION-2002 COPYRIGHT 459 PAGES) by James M. Kouzes (Author), Barry Z. Posner (Author) When it was initially written in 1987, few could have predicted that The Leadership Challenge would become one of the best-selling leadership books of all time. Now, faced with the new challenges of our unpredictable global business environment, Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner--two of the country's premier leadership experts--have completely revised and updated their classic book. Building on the knowledge base of their previous books, the third edition of The Leadership Challenge is grounded in extensive research and based on interviews with all kinds of leaders at all levels in public and private organizations from around the world. In this edition, the authors emphasize that the fundamentals of leadership are the same today as they were in the 1980s, and as they've probably been for centuries. In that sense, nothing's new. Leadership is not a fad. While the content of leadership has not changed, the context has-and in some cases, changed dramatically., Jossey-Bass, 2002, 2.5, Harper & Row, NY, 1962., 1962.

Lester Piggott - the man and the jockey - has always captured the public imagination. Born on 5 November 1935, he was an infant prodigy who was hailed as a 'boy wonder' rider by the age of fourteen. Together with early controversy and suspension came numerous glorious winners. Eleven times Champion Jockey, he has won more Derbys and more Classics than any other jockey in the history of the sport. His tally of winning rides, taken worldwide, has exceeded the 5,000 mark. Even after his widely anticipated retirement from the saddle in 1985, he was never far from the spotlight. Piggott's racing career had always been eventful yet, ironically, perhaps the most momentous episode of his life happened in 1987 when he was sentenced to three years' imprisonment for tax evasion. His 'retirement' years were very much a time of mixed fortunes, both professionally and personally. When, at the end of 1990, his unexpected return to the racetrack was announced to the world, the news caused a sensation, and it is a mark of the man, the legend that Lester Piggott has become, that his status as one of sport's greatest enigmas remains intact. And the remarkable Piggoft story goes on; back in the saddle at the age of fifty-five, he continues to ride winners and set new records. What makes this inscrutable genius tick? This new pictorial biography provides not only an invaluable illustrated record of Piggott's great achievements, but also answers to the questions his personality raises, and suggestions as to the motivation of a man understood by few, but admired by all. ., Macdonald Queen Anne Press, 1992, 3<
