ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION: APPROACHES AND PROCESSES presents
organizational communication from both a communication and
managerial perspective. Professor Miller's clear writing style and
consistent use of examples and case studies result in a text that
you'll find easy to understand.
When Katherine Miller was first asked to train chefs to be
advocates, she thought the idea was ludicrous. This was a group
known for short tempers and tattoos, not for saving the world. But
she quickly learned that chefs and other leaders in the restaurant
industry are some of the most powerful forces for change in our
troubled food system. Chefs are leading hunger relief efforts,
supporting local farmers, fighting food waste, confronting racism
and sexism in the industry, and much more. In At the Table, Miller
shares the essential techniques she developed for the James Beard
Foundation’s Chefs Boot Camp for Policy and Change. Readers will
learn how to focus their philanthropic efforts; pinpoint their
audience and develop their argument; recruit allies and support
action; and maybe most importantly, grab people’s attention in a
crowded media landscape. Miller also shares the moving stories of
chefs who used these skills to create lasting change. Tom Collichio
became one of the world’s most respected voices on ending hunger.
Bakers Against Racism recruited more than 3,000 people to
participate their global bake sales. Chefs from around the country
pushed Congress to provide financial relief to the restaurant
industry at the height of the Covid pandemic. At the Table is
filled with inspiration for anyone who has ever wanted to make a
difference outside the four walls of their restaurant. And most
importantly, it offers proven methods to become a successful
advocate. You don’t have to be a celebrity chef to change the
food system; you just need the will and the tools in this unique
guide.

"Colas Breugnon" is a charming romance of life in Burgundy three
hundred years ago. It is an "autobiographical" novel, the story
being told in the first person by Colas, who reviews his fifty
years of life, and describes all its joys and sorrows. The story is
gay and humorous, and full of wise observations about life. ---
"Colas Breugnon is the jovial Burgundian, the lusty wood-carver,
the practical joker always fond of his glass, the droll fellow.
Before everything, Colas Breugnon is a free man. He loves his king,
but only so long as the king leaves him his liberty; he loves his
wife, but follows his own bent; he is on excellent terms with the
priest of a neighboring parish, but never goes to church; he
idolizes his children, but his vigorous individuality makes him
unwilling to live with them. He is friendly with all, but subject
to none; he is freer than the king; he has that sense of humor
characteristic of the free spirit to whom the whole world belongs.
From the artistic point of view, 'Colas Breugnon' may perhaps be
regarded as Rolland's most successful work. This is because it is
woven in one piece, because it flows with a continuous rhythm,
because its progress is never arrested by the discussion of thorny
problems. It is written throughout in the same key. The first
sentence gives the note like a tuning fork, and thence the entire
book takes its pitch. Throughout, the same lively melody is
sustained. The writer employs a peculiarly happy form. His style is
poetic without being actually versified; it has a melodious measure
without being strictly metrical. This work is unlike any of
Rolland's other writings. It is not an historic study, a critical
appreciation, a philosophic essay, nor yet even, in the strictest
sense of the word, a novel. It is rather a volume of reminiscences
as told by a man of fifty; and the very aimlessness with which this
man talks is in itself a pleasure; for Breugnon is himself the one
subject of the book, holding our attention by the display of a
wayward, sympathetic, and aggressive personality." (Stefan Zweig)
