This book is a progress report on a study of leadership in the vast network of business ecosystems associated with ARM Holdings and its 1000 plus community of partners. You have this technology next to your body right now. The community's products power 98% of smartphones (Apple, Samsung, HTC, MotoX, all Android), 100% of disc-drive controllers, a third to a half--and rising fast--of all "embedded" controllers--such as those in smart thermostats (Nest), wearable athletic monitors (BodyMedia), portable medical devices (pocket EKG), refrigerators, ranges, washers--and your car's GIS, entertainment system, stability control, emergency communications, and machine vision/advanced safety technology. What makes these companies most interesting is the degree to which they share the purpose of creating a sustainable, thriving community of businesses that transform the world. They have established a cooperative ethos among themselves that is rare in business today. They have combined many of the traditional strengths of technology companies with attitudes of openness characteristic of the open source software movement. The result is a powerful hybrid style of leadership that has enabled the community to grow and prosper, disrupting and transforming traditional businesses and weathering the economic storms of the past few years. This community continues to spread its influence around the world at an increasing rate.

How many educators think they are going to change the world, only to grow frustrated over the pace of change in a school system? Teaching is a challenging profession and, according to Moore, it is a career in which one often questions whether the challenges are worth the rewards. "Teaching the Teacher" details the personal reflections and lessons educator James Moore learned over more that twenty years as he journeys full circle from questioning a major life decision to feeling at peace with his career choice. Moore emphasizes that too often teachers become caught up in a world packed with lesson plans, parent phone calls, staff meetings, and papers to grade and forget that they should be learning along with their students. Beginning with the story of his first job interview and the racial tension he encounters in the hallway as a new teacher, Moore weaves in many anecdotes about students, colleagues, and schools while sharing valuable lessons learned about his career. Whether you just graduated from college or are an experienced teacher, Moore will help you realize that there is much more to an education than the standard curriculum covered in schools today.

Today's marketplace is seeing radical changes in the way companies do business with one another. New partnerships and alliances are constantly being forged, the lines between industries have blurred, and it has become difficult to tell one business from another, and who's competing with whom.

The Death of Competition helps managers make sense of this chaos. Using biological ecology as a metaphor, it reveals how today's business environment parallels the natural world, and how, just like organisms in nature, companies must coexist and coevolve within their own business ecosystems. Through numerous examples, he explains the radically new cooperative/competitive relationships like the one forged between IBM and Microsoft and provides a comprehensive framework businesses can use to enhance their own collaborations with their customers, suppliers, investors and communities.

Reading Scripture with Paul Ricoeur is a unique volume in which twelve diverse contributors illuminate and analyze Paul Ricoeur's personal religious faith and intellectual passion for Scripture. The co-editors, Joseph A. Edelheit and James F Moore, each studied with Ricoeur at the Divinity School of the University of Chicago and bring the perspectives of a rabbi and of a Lutheran pastor and theologian, respectively. This book engages topics such as translation, biblical hermeneutics, and prophecy, as well as specific scriptural passages: Cain and Abel, the Epistles, and a feminist reading of Rahab. It provides both students and scholars alike a new resource of reflections using Ricoeur's scholarship to illuminate and model how Ricoeur read and taught.

This volume is a collection of essays written over the last ten years within the framework of a post-Shoah Christian theology, outlined in Christian Theology After the Shoah (University Press of America, 1993). The essays take seriously the impact of the Shoah and the Jewish-Christian dialogue, covering fresh approaches to sacred texts, new visions for Jewish-Christian relations, and giving insight into significant global issues. Through this, a vision for the future with a theology rooted in dialogue is shaped. Author James F. Moore contends such a theology, with a unique sense of relationships and ethical vision, will produce a new, unified dialogical community, professing its own theology and moral vision.

The "Midrash Group" of the Scholar's Conference on the Holocaust and the Churches has met annually over the last decade to discuss ways for Christians and Jews to find meaning and direction in and from sacred texts after the Holocaust. Post Shoah Dialogues is a sample of four different dialogue sessions of the "Midrash Group." The idea for a Jewish-Christian dialogue on texts grew out of an ongoing conversation between the four scholars represented in this volume, due to the profound affect the Shoah had on the theological thinking of both groups. The essays, focusing on texts matched from Hebrew and Christian scriptures, allow Christians and Jews to read the texts together in such a way as to respect the authentic identity of each other, respect the deep questions arising from the Shoah, and to open avenues for more dialogue.
