I loved the conversational format and how the book stirred my own thoughts about my industry which couldn’t be further removed.

This is because where a contractual relationship exists between the parties, there is Court of Appeal authority, binding upon the County Court, which sets out that the CPR 27.14 regime does not prevent the recovery of costs pursuant to a contractual term. There are a lot of pictures included, which are always absolutely fascinating to see. It bugs the hell out of me when you have a book about photojournalists that skimp on the photographs! Like, come on! But this one definitely delivers, and it really adds context and great visuals to the events being described. When the Murdoch era began, McCullin was made redundant and that's pretty much where this book ends, dispiriting for him certainly and also for the reader.

His experiences make for harrowing reading.He has included some of his best photographs in the book,which graphically illustrate the horrors of war. Crucial about all this is that it’s not solely about the pursuit of greatness that animates employees. They have to want to be great in the first place, at which point it’s the job of the manager, GM, President, or CEO to discover what’s unique about those in their employ. Here Guidara tells the story of EMP employee Eliazar Cervantes. Managers complained about him as someone who “didn’t care,” and who “wasn’t particularly interested in learning about the food.” Recent case law, most pertinently Dammermann v Lanyon Bowdler LLP [2017] EWCA Civ 269 has cited with approval the Court of Appeal’s consideration of the term, ‘unreasonable’ in the wasted costs context, from Ridehalgh v Horsefield and Another & Ors [1994] 3 W.L.R. 462 at p232, per Sir Thomas Bingham MR (as he then was): Devi pensare che stai rubando qualcosa che non ti appartiene di diritto.

The book is exciting to read and it is non-stop. I did feel sorry for his wife and children. How much real time did they get to spend with their husband/father over the long years, not to mention the anguish of worrying about the dangers he was exposed to in these far away lands. The Generosity Mindset: This book delves into the power of generosity and how it can revolutionize the way we approach hospitality.

We’ve test-driven Book Club with groups of all sizes, from tight-knit teams to sprawling organizations. Here’s what we found: Kirsty Sedgman shows how power dynamics and the social biases involved have resulted in a wide acceptance of what people should and shouldn't do, but they create discriminatory realities and amount to a societal façade that is dangerous for genuine social progress. From taking the knee to breastfeeding in public, from neighbourhood vigilantism to the Colston Four--and exploring ideas around ethics, justice, society, and equality along the way--Sedgman explores notions of civility throughout history up to now.
