In this powerful debut story collection, veteran travel write and climber Daniel Arnold brings to life the men and women complete with their scars and dark corners whose lives are defined by the mountains they climb. The characters who populate Snowblind are obsessed with the jagged beauty and driven by the physical ricks of dangerous summits. Their climbs end not on heights, but in the psychological aftermath, when their compulsions crash back into reality.Deep in Alaska, a fanatic soloist seeks her way back through the wilderness when her pilot fails to pick her up after a triumphant climb. In a climbers' hostel in Argentina, a young mountaineer tries to explain abandoning his fallen partner in a blizzard on Aconcagua. On K2, an anarchist fails to fit in on a modern Himalayan expedition with disastrous results. Tension fills Arnold's stories, both from the finely crafted, sweaty-palmed drama of the climbs he imagines, and also from the cracks that open in each of his characters' psyches.Snowblind is a dose of old world adventure writing made modern for a new generation fascinated by the mystique of climbing. For both serious climbers and those who may never tie onto a rope the thrill of these stories, complete

It's 1873. Modern climbing gear and Gore-Tex shells are a century away, but the high mountains still demand your attention. Imagine the stone in your hands and thousands of feet of open air below you, with only a wool jacket to weather a storm and no rope to catch a fall.Daniel Arnold did more than imagine he spent four years retracing the precarious steps of his climbing forefathers and lived to tell their tales here. From 1864 to 1931, the Sierra Nevada witnessed some of the most audacious climbing of all time. In the spirit of his predecessors, Arnold carried only rudimentary equipment no ropes, no harness, no specialized climbing shoes.In an artful blend of history, biography, nature, and adventure writing, Arnold brings to life both the journeys and the stunning terrain. In the process he uncovers the motivations that drove an extraordinary group of individuals to risk so much for the summits of our most fabled landscapes.

Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2000 im Fachbereich BWL - Personal und Organisation, Note: 1,0, Karlsruher Institut fur Technologie (KIT) (unbekannt, Soziologie), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Inhaltsangabe: Problemstellung: Hangt der Erfolg eines Unternehmens von der Intelligenz der Beschaftigten ab? Welche Faktoren spielen hierbei eine Rolle? Seit der franzosische Psychologe Alfred Binet zu Beginn unseres Jahrhunderts erstmals Intelligenztests durchfuhrte, nehmen sich immer mehr Psychologen und Verhaltensforscher dieses Themas an. Die Anforderung an den Menschen in der heutigen post-industriellen Informationsgesellschaft bewegen sich immer mehr in Richtung sozial-emotionaler Kompetenzen wie Teamfahigkeit, Kooperation, Stressbewaltigung, Einfuhlungsvermogen oder Anpassungsfahigkeit. In jungster Zeit betonen wissenschaftliche Studien die Relevanz solcher kreativen und sozial-emotionalen Faktoren als Bestandteil der Bestimmung eines ganzheitlichen Intelligenzquotienten. Der Einfluss dieser weichen Fahigkeiten auf Lebenserfolg, Effizienz und Glucksgefuhl mag fur viele selbstverstandlich sein, das Wissen uber ein Lernkonzept oder eine Strategie zur Verbesserung der personlichen sozial-emotionalen Kompetenzen fehlt jedoch meist. Dies ist der Ansatzpunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit. Geschichte und Entwicklung der Intelligenzforschung werden bis zum heutigen Stand ausfuhrlich erlautert. Dabei wird besonderen Wert auf die sozial-emotionalen Komponenten und deren Relevanz in Unternehmen gelegt. Eine empirische Untersuchung im Rahmen dieser Arbeit durchleuchtet die Korrelation zwischen Emotionaler Intelligenz und der Arbeitsleistung von Angestellten in einem Call-Center, ein typisches Beispiel, wo sozial-emotionale Kompetenzen nachvollziehbar zum Unternehmenserfolg beitragen. Das Untersuchungsergebnis unterstutzt die These, dass ein hohes Niveau sozial-emotionaler Kompetenzen der Mitarbeiter in einem Unternehmen den Grad der Nutzung des geistigen Kapitals und somit der Produktivitat be

* From the depths of Death Valley, Daniel Arnold set out to reach Mount Whitney in a way no road or trail could take him. Anything manmade or designed to make travel easy was out. With a backpack full of empty two-liter bottles, and the remotest corners of desert before him, he began his toughest test yet of physical and mental endurance.
Badwater Basin sits 282 feet below sea level in Death Valley, the lowest and hottest place in the Western Hemisphere. Mount Whitney rises 14,505 feet above sea level, the highest point in the contiguous United States. Arnold spent seventeen days traveling a roundabout route from one to the other, traversing salt flats, scaling dunes, and sinking into slot canyons. Aside from bighorn sheep and a phantom mountain lion, his only companions were ghosts of the dreamers and misfits who first dared into this unknown territory. He walked in the footsteps of William Manly, who rescued the last of the forty-niners from the bottom of Death Valley; tracked John LeMoigne, a prospector who died in the sand with his burros; and relived the tales of Mary Austin, who learned the secret trails of the Shoshone Indians. This is their story too, as much as it is a history of salt and water and of the places they collide and disappear.
Guiding the reader up treacherous climbs and through burning sands, Arnold captures the dramatic landscapes as only he can with photographs to bring it all to life. From the salt to the summit, this is an epic journey across America's most legendary desert.
