The image of the scrum – a beleaguered politican surrounded by jockeying reporters – is central to our perception of Ottawa. The modern scrum began with the arrival of television, but even in Sir John A. Macdonald’s day, a century earlier, reporters in the parliamentary press gallery had waited outside the prime minister’s office, pen in hand, hoping for a quote for the next edition. The scrum represents the test of wills, the contest of wits, and the battle for control that have characterized the relationship between Canadian prime ministers and journalists for more than 125 years. Scrum Wars chronicles this relationship. It is an anecdotal as well as analytical account, showing how earlier prime ministers like Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir Wilfrid Laurier were able to exercise control over what was written about their administrators, while more recent leaders like John Diefenbaker, Joe Clark, John Turner, and Brian Mulroney often found themselves at the mercy of intense media scrutiny and comment.

Hillmer (history, Carleton U.) and a host of other scholars, journalists, and government officials assess the legacy of Lester B. Pearson--Canada's Prime Minister during the 1960s--to mark the centenary of his birth. Pearson was tremendously successful during his diplomatic career; even winning a Nobel Peace Prize. He was also a controversial prime minister, and the authors examine all of the paradoxes and controversies of his tenure. Topics include Canadian national unity, Pearson's world view and theories of politics, his relationship with the media, and his legacy. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

One moment they were schoolboys – ordinary teenagers – strolling down their school’s tree-lined drive, studying in class, playing games, laughing with friends and performing on stage. Next, they were fighting in two world wars – 1700 young men battling to keep Britain free. This is the story of a school at war – the boys and masters from a south London school who fought on every battlefront. It’s Emanuel’s hidden history – stories locked away in archives for decades. Published here for the first time these voices from the past reveal the contrast between a world at peace and a world at war. The dramatic exploits of Emanuel boys, from 1914 to the Liberation of Europe in 1945, are brought to life in their own words – through letters, diaries, documents and interviews. Lavishly illustrated with over 650 pictures this unique 637 page book tells the stories of former students who fought and died for their country. Stories which feature in this book include that of Sebastian Coe’s father Percy Coe who was a POW in France before escaping and returning to England via six-months imprisonment in Spain; Gordon Murray, the creator of the Trumptonshire Children’s Television Series who landed at Gold Beach on D-Day with the Royal Corps of Signals; Brian Lightoller, who was one of the first casualties of the Second World War and who was the son of Charles Lightoller the most senior surviving officer of the sinking of the Titanic and Seymour ‘Peter’ Pike who was the lead signalman on Operation Chariot which resulted in the destruction of the dry-dock at St Nazaire in March 1942.

_______________________ FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SCRUM Do you never get as much done as you need to? Sometimes, even the most important projects can feel painstakingly slow. But it doesn't have to be this way. In his international bestseller Scrum, J.J. Sutherland introduced a simple, revolutionary tool used by Google, Amazon and the FBI to turbo-charge the output of every team. He called it the Scrum method. Now, Sutherland returns with a step-by-step guide to using this revolutionary system at any level of any company. With its emphasis on rapid innovation, no-bullshit meetings and quick-fire decision-making, Scrum will transform your productivity - starting today. PRAISE FOR THE SCRUM METHOD 'Every business needs a methodology for getting stuff done, for successful collaboration and scalable management techniques. Scrum is the answer.' Entrepreneur 'The project management method known as Scrum may be the most widely deployed productivity tool among high-tech companies. On a mission to put this tool into the hands of the broader business world for the first time, Jeff Sutherland succeeds brilliantly.' Eric Ries, author of The Lean Startup

With the same eye for character, anecdote and circumstance that made Peter Ackroyd’s London and Colin Jones’s Paris so successful, Levine’s captivating prose integrates the sights, sounds and feel of Toronto with a broad historical perspective, linking the city’s present with its past through themes such as politics, transportation, public health, ethnic diversity and sports. Toronto invites readers to discover the city’s lively spirit over four centuries and to wander purposefully through the city’s many unique neighborhoods, where they can encounter the striking and peculiar characters who have inhabited them: the powerful and powerless, the entrepreneurs and the entertainers, and the moral and the corrupt, all of whom have contributed to Toronto’s collective identity.

If Canadian history was ever dull, it isn't now. Get this book." Book jacket.

The revolutionary “Red Book” that helped a generation work smarter, better, and faster—now expanded and updated with new stories, new ideas, and new methods to radically improve the way you and your company deliver results If you’ve ever been startled by how fast the world is changing, the Scrum framework is one of the reasons why. Productivity gains in workflow of as much as 1,200 percent have been recorded, and there’s no more lucid—or compelling—explainer of Scrum and its bright promise than Jeff Sutherland. The thorny problem that Sutherland began tackling back then boils down to this: People are spectacularly bad at doing things with agility and efficiency. Best-laid plans go up in smoke. Teams often work at cross-purposes to one another. And when the pressure rises, unhappiness soars. Woven with insights from martial arts, judicial decision making, advanced aerial combat, robotics, and Sutherland’s experience as a West Point–educated fighter pilot, a biometrics expert, a medical researcher, an early innovator of ATM technology, and a C-level executive at eleven different technology companies, this book will take you to Scrum’s front lines, where Sutherland’s system has brought the FBI into the twenty-first century, helped support John Deere’s supply chain amid a global pandemic and supply chain shortage, reduced poverty in the Third World, and even planned weddings and accomplished weekend chores. The way we work has changed dramatically since Sutherland first introduced Scrum a decade ago. This urgent update shares new insights and provides new tools to take advantage of the radical productivity that Scrum delivers. Sutherland will show you how to optimize working with artificial intelligence and share the latest cognitive science research on culture, psychological safety, diversity, and happiness, and how these factors drive performance, innovation, and overall organizational health. This new edition contains a decade of lessons learned. Whether it’s ten years ago, now, or ten years into the future, the Scrum framework is guaranteed to help you deliver results. But the most important reason to read this book is that it may just help you achieve what others consider unachievable.
