The new context and character of public service - shifting values,
entrepreneurship, information technology, multi-sector careers -
require enhanced technical, ethical, and leadership skills. This
concise and readable work describes what it means to be a
consummate professional public servant. Essential reading for both
professionals and students, it sets standards for everyone who
conducts the public's business, and links them with performance
management, human resource administration and information
technology skills. The book identifies the ethical foundations of
public service and how to integrate them in practice. It also
addresses individual leadership, what it means and how it is based
on a foundation of technical and ethical skills. Filled with
original illustrative examples and case studies from government,
the non-profit sector, and business, The Professional Edge is an
ideal supplement for any introductory course in Public
Administration or Ethics in the Public Service.
Timeless wisdom on generosity and gratitude from the great Stoic
philosopher Seneca To give and receive well may be the most human
thing you can do-but it is also the closest you can come to
divinity. So argues the great Roman Stoic thinker Seneca (c. 4
BCE-65 CE) in his longest and most searching moral treatise, "On
Benefits" (De Beneficiis). James Romm's splendid new translation of
essential selections from this work conveys the heart of Seneca's
argument that generosity and gratitude are among the most important
of all virtues. For Seneca, the impulse to give to others lies at
the very foundation of society; without it, we are helpless
creatures, worse than wild beasts. But generosity did not arise
randomly or by chance. Seneca sees it as part of our desire to
emulate the gods, whose creation of the earth and heavens stands as
the greatest gift of all. Seneca's soaring prose captures his
wonder at that gift, and expresses a profound sense of gratitude
that will inspire today's readers. Complete with an enlightening
introduction and the original Latin on facing pages, How to Give is
a timeless guide to the profound significance of true generosity.
The Brighton Atlantic locomotives were some of the most handsome
machines ever constructed at Brighton Works. They were signed by
the D. Earl Marsh, Locomotive Superintendent of the London Brighton
and South Coast Railway, and produced as two classes, the H1,
introduced in 1905-1906, and the H2, introduced in 1911-1912. The
Brighton Atlantic type has had a following among enthusiasts and
model engineers for over a century, with many fine examples of
models of these machines being constructed in all scales, both as
live steam and electric powered. Great interest is still there
today, with many models of these fine locomotives on show at model
engineering exhibitions and on smaller scale Brighton or Southern
layouts. The Bluebell Railway in East Sussex is currently
constructing a full-size replica of the last H2 Atlantic (Beachy
Head) in a workshop at Sheffield Park, using some parts from the
original locomotive and a rescued Great Northern Atlantic boiler.
The project to construct a replica machine has aroused a great deal
of public interest in this design of locomotive.At this time there
are no books available on the market for anyone who would like to
construct a model on, or take an interest in, the replica project
on the Bluebell Railway.
