Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are

A recent study showed that when doctors tell heart patients they
will die if they don't change their habits, only one in seven will
be able to follow through successfully. Desire and motivation
aren't enough: even when it's literally a matter of life or death,
the ability to change remains maddeningly elusive. Given that the
status quo is so potent, how can we change ourselves and our
organizations? In Immunity to Change, authors Robert Kegan and Lisa
Lahey show how our individual beliefs--along with the collective
mind-sets in our organizations--combine to create a natural but
powerful immunity to change. By revealing how this mechanism holds
us back, Kegan and Lahey give us the keys to unlock our potential
and finally move forward. And by pinpointing and uprooting our own
immunities to change, we can bring our organizations forward with
us. This persuasive and practical book, filled with hands-on
diagnostics and compelling case studies, delivers the tools you
need to overcome the forces of inertia and transform your life and
your work.
The term "cult film star" has been employed, and used as a
common-sense term, in publicity and popular journalistic writing
for at least the last twenty-five years. However, what makes cult
film stars or actors distinct or different from other film stars
has rarely been addressed, with the cult star label often being
attributed to particular stars or actors in an imprecise way. This
edited collection provides a much-needed overview of the variety of
processes through which film stars and actors become associated
with the cult label. It brings together chapters from an
international group of scholars which focus on a wide range of cult
stars and actors, from Montgomery Clift and Bill Murray to Ruth
Gordon and Ingrid Pitt. The collection makes important, previously
under-explored, connections between two key disciplines within film
and media studies: stardom/celebrity studies and cult film studies.
