A Scottish doctor and botanist, George Watt (1851-1930) had studied the flora of India for more than a decade before he took on the task of compiling this monumental work. Assisted by numerous contributors, he set about organising vast amounts of information on India's commercial plants and produce, including scientific and vernacular names, properties, domestic and medical uses, trade statistics, and published sources. Watt hoped that the dictionary, 'though not a strictly scientific publication', would be found 'sufficiently accurate in its scientific details for all practical and commercial purposes'. First published in six volumes between 1889 and 1893, with an index volume completed in 1896, the whole work is now reissued in nine separate parts. Volume 6, Part 1 (1892) contains entries from Pachyrhizus angulatus (a large climbing herb) to rye (not indigenous to India).

In 2010 two septuagenarians reminisce on a balcony overlooking a former town and river valley inundated fifty years before by the damned waters of the massive Snowy Mountain Scheme. One of them, Ralph McDonald, feels compelled to retell dramatic events from his youth, ones related to things hidden in the depths of his conscience and in the waters themselves. An unlikely trio of late teenagers-the scion of Australian landed gentry, the brilliant son of middle-class Canberra academics, and the humble son of the local garage owner-together spend uncomplicated school holidays until the catalytic arrival of two individuals: an intense half Aboriginal boy who inhabits his deceased grandmother's shack, and a singer from a distant world of glamour appearing for the winter season at the only major ski lodge in the surrounding national park. As the confession reveals, little by little, the trio-seemingly the embodiment of the Australian egalitarian myth of mateship-is poisoned by snobbery, vindictiveness, complex sexualities, deception and, above all, interpersonal exploitation. Working through an amalgam of literary genres (bildungsroman, mystery tale, and the historic novel) THE FINLEY CONFESSION is a critical account of race, class and gender in contemporary Australia, but it also brings into question who owns any story and why. "Highly readable and thoroughly entertaining... a writerly novel, calling into question the very authority of any teller of tales." >"The novel perfectly captures the Snowy Mountains of the 1960s... a coming-of-age story of great power and intensity as the narrator finds himself torn between two classes, two races... and two loves. At times matter-of-fact and conversational, at other times, laced with lyrical beauty and wry observation." -A.J. Mackinnon, author of The Unlikely Voyage of Jack de Crow and The Well at the World's End. "With poetic aplomb and a fondness for frank and unsettling insights, The Finley Confessions plumbs a lost Australian landscape to sound the depths of fractured masculinity.">

"e;A hell of an adventure story."e; -- Ring Lardner Jr. "e;A story of what is best in human beings triumphing over what is worst."e; -- John SaylesNovember 1943: American flyer George Watt parachutes out of his burning warplane and lands in rural Nazi-occupied Belgium. Escape from Hitler's Europe is the incredible story of his getaway -- how brave villagers spirited him to Brussels to connect with the Comet Line, a rescue arm of the Belgian resistance. This was a gravely dangerous mission, especially for a Jewish soldier who had fought against Franco in the Spanish Civil War. Watt recounts dodging the Gestapo, entering Paris via the underground, and finally, crossing the treacherous Pyrenees into Spain. In 1985, he returned to Belgium and discovered an astonishing postscript to his wartime experiences.

¿Does your organization fumble when it comes to innovation? ¿The Innovative CIO¿ presents a pragmatic guide to overcoming the 10 ¿innovation killers¿ within your company.¿  --Dennis McCafferty ¿CIO Insight¿, 1/23/2013 (www.cioinsight.com/it-management/innovation/slideshows/ten-ways-to-kill-innovation/)¿Are you unwittingly stifling your employees¿ entrepreneurial spirit? ¿The Innovative CIO¿ discusses ¿innovation killers¿ that could be holding back your small business or startup.¿ --Paul Shread ¿TIME/Business & Money¿, 1/29/2013 (business.time.com/2013/01/29/removing-barriers-to-innovation/#ixzz2JSrUlD3A)The Chief Information Officer¿s influence in the business organization has been waning for years. The rest of the C-suite has come to regard Information Technology as slow, costly, error-prone, boring, and unresponsive to business needs. This perception blinds company leaders to the critical value IT can deliver and threatens the competitive health and long-term survival of their enterprise.The modern CIO must reassert the operational and strategic importance of technology to the enterprise and reintegrate it with every department and level of the business from boardroom to mailroom. IT leaders must design, sell, and implement a vigorous culture of IT competence and innovation that pervades the enterprise. The culture must be rooted in bidirectional exchange across organizations and C-level policies that drive technology innovation as the engine of business innovation.The authors, international IT strategists and innovators, quantify the benefits and risks of IT innovation, survey and rank the myriad innovation opportunities from mature, new, and emerging technologies,and identify the organizational structures and processes thathave been proven to deliver ongoing innovation. Buttressing their brief with dozens of case studies and specific examples, The Innovative CIO shows you how to:  Take advantage of the IT and business innovation opportunities created by new and emerging technologies Shift IT innovation from afterthought to prime mover in strategic business planning  Inject IT into the dynamic core of your organization¿s culture, training, structure, practice, and policy
