There was once a robot with a broken heart, good for nothing but expiring slowly on a scrap heap. Then one winter's day a migrating bluebird lands on his shoulder, too exhausted to go further. The robot offers her shelter in the place where his heart used to be, and her warmth and singing and companionship stir up the last glimmer of energy the robot has; he carries her across snowy wastes to the warm south, whereupon his strength dies out finally. And there he still stands today like an old hollow tree, home every year to singing birds.

The ancient Vietnamese life in which Tung was raised is being torn apart. It is not enough to work hard and grow rice any more. Now every farmer in Mai Dong has to pick a side. The French or the Communists. "They are going to murder your father." Intelligence, humility and graft made Que an honorable figure in Mai Dong village. While his values ensured the family's survival through famine and flood, they will not protect him against the Communists, who need class-enemy victims for their land reform campaign. Tung becomes protector and provider for the family, who struggle to stay together as World War Two, the French Indochinese War and the American War tear his country apart over forty years. Based on a true story, Uprooted is an uplifting saga that spans three generations of a Vietnamese family's journey through fire and water. See uprootedthenovel.com for more details

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2012 im Fachbereich BWL - Unternehmensfuhrung, Management, Organisation, Note: 2,0, Business and Information Technology School - Die Unternehmer Hochschule Iserlohn, Veranstaltung: Communication & Media Management, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit stellt im Kontext einer umfangreicheren Ausarbeitung den Anspruch, selbst ein Tool zu entwickeln. Dieses Tool soll sich durch Anwenderfreundlichkeit, einen hohen kommunikativen Anspruch und praktische Anwendbarkeit auszeichnen. Um eine Grundlage fur dieses Werkzeug zu schaffen, definiert die Arbeit theoretisch, was strategisches Management ist, wo sich die strategische Planung in diesem Prozess findet und welche Anforderungen sich aus der Theorie ergeben. Hierzu ist eine kurze Analyse einiger, beispielhaft ausgesuchter, bestehender Management-Tools und ihrer Struktur notig. Damit das Werkzeug auch den Anforderungen der Praxis nachkommen kann, findet in der vorliegenden Arbeit eine Auswertung von Experteninterviews statt. Hierzu werden kurz methodische Grundlagen sowie die Auswahl der Gesprachspartner erlautert. Neben der theoretischen Herleitung liegt ein starker Fokus der Arbeit auf der Umsetzung des Tools selbst. Dabei geht es weniger um die technischen Herausforderungen als vielmehr um den Prozess von den ermittelten Anforderungen uber eine kreative Phase hin zu einem allgemein gultigen und anwendbaren Tool.
