Dragon in a Three-Piece Suit is an innovative sociological examination of what is perhaps the main engine of economic reform in China, the large industrial firm. Doug Guthrie, who spent more than a year in Shanghai studying firms, interviewing managers, and gathering data on firms' performance and practices, provides the first detailed account of how these firms have been radically transformed since the mid-1980s. Guthrie shows that Chinese firms are increasingly imitating foreign firms in response both to growing contact with international investors and to being cut adrift from state support. Many firms, for example, are now less likely to use informal hiring practices, more likely to have formal grievance filing procedures, and more likely to respect international institutions, such as the Chinese International Arbitration Commission. Guthrie argues that these findings support the de-linking of Western trade policy from human rights, since it is clear that economic engagement leads to constructive reform. Yet Guthrie also warns that reform in China is not a process of inevitable Westernization or of managers behaving as rational, profit-maximizing agents. Old habits, China's powerful state administration, and the hierarchy of the former command economy will continue to have profound effects on how firms act and how they adjust to change. With its combination of rigorous argument and uniquely rich detail, this book gives us the most complete picture yet of Chinese economic reform at the crucial level of the industrial firm.

Remade in China looks beyond the macroeconomic effects of China's investment boom to analyze how foreign investors from the US, Japan, and other nations are shaping China's legal, labor, and business reforms. Wilson draws on interviews with nearly 100 foreign and local managers, attorneys, workers, and members of the business community to explain why Chinese laborers and firms have gravitated toward foreign models, especially US businesses and their institutions. Wilson provides a lucid and insightful analysis of how foreign and domestic actors, from political leaders to average laborers, have contributed to remaking China's institutions.

Dragon Touched twists The Princess and the Pea fairytale into a fun, spicy adventure filled with a dark wizard, one sassy princess, and a baby dragon with attitude. Sacha Ninnette, daughter of Chicago's most ruthless mob lord "Vicious" Vito Ninnette—King of the Mafiosos—is a caged princess. Forced into a pre-arranged marriage with the head of another cartel, she flees the wedding and ends up in a raging thunderstorm. Stumbling upon an old decrepit tower, she takes refuge from the storm. The rude, strange owner of the dwelling, Finley Marin, blackmails Sacha into staying the evening. The longer she weathers the dark night with Fin, the more she suspects he holds his own secrets. With one touch, he awakens her body and heart. To return to his world of magic, Finley Marin needs a princess. How fitting the daughter of his enemy should arrive on his doorstep like a willing sacrifice. There's just one problem—the little mafia princess is weaving her own kind of spell over his heart, threatening well-laid plans for retribution and jeopardizing the chance of returning to his world.

Nickolas Landry; Martial Arts instructor, model citizen, and former Navy SEAL. Years ago, after leaving the Navy, he was confronted by an ancient little man from Japan, who claimed that Nick was destined to serve as the Guardian of mankind. His duty, until the end of times, is to safeguard humanity from the forces of darkness. This destiny came with a warning, explained by Masamoto that this duty would destroy the life Nick knows. When the time came, after years of training, Nick learned first hand how true the warning was. He believed that he possessed the strength and ability to protect his life and the loved ones in it. On the eve of his wedding, he was shown how wrong he was, when his bride to be was taken from him, along with Masamoto, losing her life because of his destiny. How does a man give his life to save the rest of mankind? Sure, he could've walked away and denied his destiny. But, how could he carry on with his life knowing that the future of mankind is doomed on Earth? Nickolas Landry is not that kind of man, but with the end of times near, he will soon learn the extent of this so-called destiny that has consumed his life, and what it will truly cost him. Allies have been made, with more to come to fight at his side, on this eve of doom. It is then that Nick will discover what the ultimate sacrifice is to save the word.

Another Dragon Fantasy for everyone who fell in love with the Dragon Lore Series and my other dragon-saturated books. Rowan hasn’t made a dent in coming to terms with her black-to-his bones dragon father when she gets pregnant. The dragon-child isn’t even here yet, but everyone’s already fighting over his future. The third (and last) book in a magic-laced, fast-paced, fantasy trilogy. With dragons. I’m being pulled nine ways at once. Brand new mating. Brand new pregnancy. Stronger magic than I’m used to. The Nine Worlds are failing. Rot that began on Earth has spread to Vanaheim. Odin knows more than he’s telling us, and no one has any interest in working together. The only thing everybody has in common is a sudden, weird fascination with my baby. The dragons want him raised on Fire Mountain. The Celts want us in Inverlochy Castle with them. Hel hasn’t weighed in, but I bet she’d like to see her grandson in Niflheim where she can dandle him on her knees every day. If it weren’t for the catastrophe looming over our heads, Bjorn and I would escape to a distant borderworld and never look back. It’s always an option. Good to preserve as many of those as possible Keep your fingers crossed for me. And my son. See you on the other side.

In the pursuit of knowledge one man is forced to put his ideals on hold for monetary help. In the course of his Archeological investigation he comes across a history of the world some 100,000 years in the past, a place where power was not just measured in arms and gold but in spells and the alliance between humans and dragons. An age where the unbelievable was commonplace and the magical an everyday thing. Seremitter grows into a man with our translator helping us to see him and his brother from another mother, the Draconian that he shares his rank with and his place among the wizards of our long forgotten past. © John Todd Hewitt.
