Das Tao Te King des Laotse ist neben der Bibel das meistveröffentlichte Buch der Welt und wird wegen seines philosophischen Tiefgangs und seiner praktischen Weisheit geschätzt. "Es kommt nur selten vor, dass es jemandem gelingt, einen solchen Klassiker zu verbessern ... und ihn der modernen Welt zum Geschenk zu machen. Eine solche Leistung bedarf eines Menschen von außerordentlicher Weisheit, Einsicht und Herzensgüte. William Martin ist ein solcher Mensch und dies ist ein solches Buch." Dan Millman"Kinder haben noch nie besonders gut auf das gehört, was ihre Eltern zu sagen haben", schreibt James Baldwin, "aber eines gelingt ihnen immer: sie nachzuahmen.""Die alten Lehren, die Geduld, Mitgefühl, Einfachheit und elterliche Achtsamkeit in den Vordergrund stellen, bieten Müttern und Vätern die Möglichkeit, im Stillen über sich selbst nachzudenken und dem authentischen Wesen ihrer Kinder gerecht zu werden." Virginia Beane Rutter

An important contribution to the human resources literature, this book is written for personnel and training managers who need specific information on how to recognize and deal effectively with problem employees. Based on Martin's experience with hundreds of employees in a variety of work settings over a 22-year period, the volume describes a number of employee types and the overt/covert behaviors they manifest, explains the personality dynamics involved, and offers practical advice regarding intervention strategies that can be effectively used in dealing with these employees. Throughout, case studies are used to illustrate typical behaviors and possible solutions.Today's employment climate generally precludes the use of personality tests on prospective employees, and problems often surface after the fact when termination may be difficult. Thus, Martin focuses particularly on how to work with such employees to help them understand the counterproductive nature of their work behavior and how to place them within the most productive organizational setting possible. Following several introductory chapters, each subsequent chapter is devoted to a particular type of problem employee--primadonna, rebel, backstabber, that's not my job, etc. The individual chapters combine case examples with a collective discussion of behaviors, dynamics, and intervention strategies offering the busy practitioner both a better understanding of certain employee behaviors and a framework by which to deal with these individuals within the job and organizational realm. The book also offers suggestions for recognizing disruptive personality types at the interview stage.

Written for professional, supervisory, and administrative practitioners in the human services field, the book offers thorough, straightforward coverage of motivation to work, job satisfaction and commitment, work attitudes and barriers to productivity, motivational problems associated with decertification, reward and incentive systems, human factors and performance, and a realistic discussion of recruitment problems peculiar to public sector human service organizations.

Emphasizing each country's individual conditions, the contributors suggest that it is unusual for semi-peripheral states to move into the "core" world-economy. They present the thesis that the conditions which were necessary to achieve semi-peripheral status often prevent further advances.
