(Whether you're the owner of our own small business, a mid...)
Whether you're the owner of our own small business, a middle manager in a mid-sized company, or the CEO of a multinational, this book can show you how to improve your profits and productivity. How? By following the principles of The Deming Management Method. Middle- and top-echelon managers, in particular, will find Dr. Deming's method provocative and controversial. He is for a total revamping of the way American managers manage. Some of his pet peeves are managers who manage by slogans or by setting quotas, managers who don't know what their jobs are and who can't define the responsibilities of the workers under them, managers who tend to blame workers, not realizing that workers want to take pride in their work.

Let's face it, Americans are living in a business environment that is self-conscious and insecure. Companies are no longer meeting their full potential. Manufacturing and service have gone to the dogs, and the climate is one of dismay and despair. Hidden among these messages of declining levels of quality and productivity, defying the voices of doom and gloom, one man and his revolutionary approach to management stand out. Dr. W. Edwards Deming is revitalizing American industry and demonstrating through his successful clients, disciples, and advocates that corporate America in the nineties will once more be the hall mark of quality throughout the world.

(Alice Paul began her life as a studious girl from a stric...)
Alice Paul began her life as a studious girl from a strict Quaker family in New Jersey. In 1907, a scholarship took her to England, where she developed a passionate devotion to the suffrage movement. Upon her return to the United States, Alice became the leader of the militant wing of the American suffrage movement. Calling themselves "Silent Sentinels," she and her followers were the first protestors to picket the White House. Arrested and jailed, they went on hunger strikes and were force-fed and brutalized. Years before Gandhi's campaign of nonviolent resistance, and decades before civil rights demonstrations, Alice Paul practiced peaceful civil disobedience in the pursuit of equal rights for women. With her daring and unconventional tactics, Alice Paul eventually succeeded in forcing President Woodrow Wilson and a reluctant U.S. Congress to pass the Nineteenth Amendment, granting women the right to vote. Here, at last, is the inspiring story of the young woman whose dedication to women's rights made that long-held dream a reality.

Mary Walton is the author of A Woman’s Crusade: Alice Paul and the Battle for the Ballot. The book’s release in August 2010, marked the ninetieth anniversary of the Nineteenth Amendment giving women the vote. A New Jersey Quaker, Paul was the leader of the militant wing of the suffrage movement from 1913 to 1920. Hers was a David-and-Goliath struggle to convince a reluctant Congress and a stubborn president to give women the vote. She and her followers were the first people to picket the White House. They were arrested, thrown in jail, brutalized and force-fed when they went on hunger strikes. A pioneer in non-violent resistance, she was to suffrage what Gandhi was to Indian independence, what Martin Luther King Jr. was to civil rights.

She lives in Philadelphia.
