'This book calls itself  ’a short guide’. It is not. It may be small on the outside but it is big on the inside. It is packed with useful information, for the procurement professional, for the supply chain manager, for the CEO, for any business owner.  Even for the supply chain risk researcher, who is likely to find he exhaustive list of risks particularly useful. Truly, this book is about so much more than procurement, it is about so much more than the supply-side risks in the supply chain, it is about any kind of business and how to do your business well.' Jan Husdal, husdal.com  'I’m genuinely amazed at the breadth of risks that this little book covers...In this Guide Richard describes the journey to build good procurement risk management; what is at stake, how to describe and address it. He goes further to show how to build commitment across the wider business cross-functional team, raising the profile of the procurement process and know-how, shaping and developing expertise that actually builds collaborative working in the business. These are critical and highly valuable goals for every Senior Leader seeking to deliver sustainable value and high performing teams. Richard provides sound advice, tools and techniques based upon real case studies and significant experience which he lays out in seven easy-to-digest chapters...valuable reading to everyone whether an experienced procurement professional, newcomer or a leader, who cares about the shape and health of their business.  The Guide has many practical tips including sound techniques e.g., self assessment tools and checklists but more valuably, it has many ’little gems’ that make the reader reflect and think much deeper than the mechanics of a risk management process...A well thought through journey from which you will benefit from the sound advice provided by experienced and knowledgeable sources from which you can help yourself  - enjoy!  - Paula Gildert, Head of Development Strategic Sourcing,

A Short Guide to Procurement Risk

'The idea of Southeast Asia as a cultural "crossroads'"has a long history. This edited volume brings the crossroads leitmotif right up to the present in an eclectic collection of papers in which most scholars of contemporary social and cultural change in Southeast Asia will find rich rewards.' Jonathan Rigg, University of Durham, UK  'Historically Southeast Asia has often been portrayed as a region of  "fragmented identity" between the two larger cultural realms of East Asia and the Indian sub-continent. This excellent collection of essays explores how Southeast Asian nations and people are reshaping their identity in the face of global regional and local influences by taking control of their diverse identities through the rewriting of the heritage in the landscapes of post modernism.'

’I can only highly recommend a book which is not only thought-provoking and valuable, but is also a reaction on behalf of the human imagination, common sense and generosity of spirit to the many manifestations of retrogressive thinking still prevalent today.  Parallel Cultures is a fascinating study by a group of young scholars from what used to be called the Eastern Bloc...essential for those who believe tolerance to be the guiding light of the twenty-first century (and even more essential reading for bigots!).’ Sir Peter Ustinov  ’Parallel Cultures may well become a catchword in discussion of identity, nationalism, or minorities as much as, say, imagined community or invention of tradition...Lord’s essay founds a moral anthropology.’ Professor André Liebich, Graduate Institute of International Studies, Switzerland  ’...polemic and grappling with a problem that is of real and contemporary importance.  That is what will make it very well worth buying.’ Maurice Keen, University of Oxford, UK

'Remembering Hiroshima is an original and important contribution to the scholarly literature on the decision by US President Harry Truman to drop the atomic bomb on Japanese cities. Francis X. Winters combines careful historical and ethical analyses to reach the conclusion that under certain rare, exceptional circumstances one may override the traditional just-war prohibition against the direct targeting of civilians.'  Gregory A. Raymond, Boise State University, USA    'Few wartime decisions have generated the level of controversy surrounding the atomic bombing of Hiroshima during World War II. This comprehensive study analyzes the historical context, assesses the range of tough alternatives available to policymakers, and explores the ethical acceptability of Truman's decision through the prism of just war theory. Whether one shares the author's views or not, this volume is a welcome addition to the debate.'  George Andreopoulos, City University of New York, USA

'While humans are normally treated as a hazard and an unsafe system component, this book looks at the human as a hero - as the single force that on a significant number of occasions has saved systems from disaster. Instead of seeing humans as a source of risk, they should be seen as an indispensable resource for safety. James Reason lucidly argues for this more balanced view using many examples from the past and the present, switching effortlessly from domain to domain. Elegantly and entertainingly written, it is an invaluable supply of information and inspiration, as well as a pointer to how the thinking about safety should develop.' Erik Hollnagel, MINES ParisTech, France  'James Reason continues in his quest to set new horizons for the worlds of human performance and safety management with this new book. The Human Contribution: Unsafe Acts, Accidents and Heroic Recoveries extends the scope of interest of scientists and engineers from the familiar areas of failures and accidents to include the roles that humans play in stopping bad events, often in heroic and imaginative ways that challenge our abilities to anticipate. This book will certainly be as important to the development of new thinking in safety as his previous books, Human Error and Managing the Risks of Organizational Accidents, have proved to be. Everyone working in this area, from those researchers advancing new models and methods to those "at the sharp end" responsible for implementing safety policies and practices, will find this book both useful and easy to read and understand.  John Wreathall, John Wreathall & Co.  'The serious reader will find the book intensely moving at times. The wealth of real case studies, tragedies, splendid successes and discoveries, make it well balanced and difficult to put down. Certainly it merits repeated reading for continuous satisfaction and inspiration.' Occupational Safety & Health, May 2009  '...it is a valuable and significant contribution to managing safety a
