The first book by a Coca-Cola CEO tells the remarkable story of the company's revival.
Neville Isdell was a key player at Coca-Cola for more than thirty years, retiring in 2009 as Chairman after rebuilding the tarnished brand image of the world's leading soft-drink company. Inside Coca-Cola tells an extraordinary personal and professional worldwide story, ranging from Northern Ireland to South Africa to Australia, the Philippines, Russia, Germany, India and Turkey. Isdell helped put out huge public-relations fires (India and Turkey), opened markets (Russia, Eastern Europe, the Philippines, and Africa), championed Muhtar Kent, the current Turkish-American CEO, all while living the ideal of corporate responsibility.
Isdell's—and Coke's—story is newsy without being gossipy; principled without being preachy, and filled with stories and lessons appealing to anyone who has ever taken "the pause that refreshes." It's also a readable and important look at how companies can market and govern themselves more—ethically and to great success.
This story of a middle-class white South African family unfolds between the years 1939 and 1964 - a transformative period in South Africa’s political landscape.
It is told through the eyes and experiences of the younger son and his rite of passage into a country of racial segregation that gradually opens his eyes to the many injustices imposed upon the majority of the country’s population, coupled with a realization that his white privileges are sustained at the brutal expense of others.

This work covers very modern mechanics, combined with contemporary
techniques for non-destructive research of granular materials
comparable with geotechnical methods such as ground penetrating
radar, and even non-invasive medical procedures such as magnetic
resonance scanning and x-ray. There are wide-ranging applications
for these methods in areas such as petroleum, mining and foundation
engineering. Multiple questions, problems and hands-on experiments,
designed to consolidate concepts and suggest application to other
situations, are presented in each chapter. These are also included
on a dedicated web-site, used to keep the book up-to-date.
As the bicentenary of the Conseil d'Etat approaches, this new
edition of the leading English-language text provides a detailed
profile of the Conseil and offers an up-to-date overview of le
droit administratif, which is regarded, alongside the Code
Napoleon, as the most notable achievement of French legal science.
The Conseil d'Etat is taken as a model for many administrative
systems in Europe and beyond, and it continues to exercise a strong
influence upon the emerging democracies of Eastern Europe and the
Third World. The eleven expanded appendices, including statistics,
model pleadings and other illustrations, provide an invaluable and
accessible source of information on the French administrative
courts, their procedure and case-load. Throughout the approach is
comparative, with frequent references to developments in United
Kingdom administrative law and in the EC institutions. The book
will be an invaluable guide to all students of French law and
comparative public law.
