Paul Alexander had it all. He was a war hero in Israel, a man with a $100 million dollar fortune with operations in Brasil, the US and Monte Carlo. He collected $1 million a year from the CIA. All of that money was not enough! He helped to smuggle over $9 billion worth of cocaine into the USA and Australia. He almost became a billionaire before he was 35. His greed destroyed him.

From a skinny beach bum to a brawny headband-wearing blue-collar hero, through to an elder statesman of rock, Springsteen has been one of the most revered songwriters of his and succeeding generations for half a century. Throughout the decades, his anthemic tracks of personal and political strife have chronicled life in America, providing listeners with character-driven narratives that can be read as short stories of lives they live, lived, or have seen first-hand. After getting a recording contract with Columbia Records aged twenty-two, Springsteen wrote and recorded a string of critically acclaimed albums, including Born to Run, which brought him a wider audience, before becoming a superstar with the release of 1984's Born in the U.S.A. In the twenty-first century, Springsteen continues to release landmark albums such as The Rising and Wrecking Ball and, with the stalwart support of the E Street Band, still performs in sold-out stadiums worldwide, with concerts routinely lasting for over three hours. This volume explores Springsteen's discography in detail, examining his worldwide hits alongside his lesser-known but equally moving tracks.

Positive management (PM) motivates employees, increases productivity, and accomplishes important organizational goals by creating positive and upbeat relationships with employees. A mythology has arisen in American business that being "tough" and unreasonable are keys to extracting high productivity from employees. But profound demographic and cultural changes are suggesting just the opposite. People who are difficult to work for will have increasing problems in finding employees, especially highly-educated ones, in the coming decades, and this struggle could seriously hamper your company's ability to accomplish its strategic objectives. This book explains how to achieve higher productivity through positive management and how to use PM in a variety of situations, including difficult and negative ones.
