Service Worlds

As the twenty-first century begins, significant changes are occurring in the way that services and goods are produced and consumed. One of the key drivers of this change is information and communications technology (ICT). It has transformed the role of space and time in patterns of economic development, in the rise of globalization and in the scale and structure of organizations. ICT has therefore accelerated the process of continual change and evolution that is the hallmark of both the capitalist economy and of organizations.  Giving a student-friendly account of the diversity of theoretical perspectives, this outstanding book aids understanding the evolving economic geography of advanced capitalist economies. A series of detailed firm and employees' case studies from Europe, North America and the Asia Pacific, are used to inform useful theoretical case studies, which also investigate the significance of increased blurring of the lines between services and manufacturing functions in the production and consumption process.

Since 1897 the rolling chalk downland of Salisbury Plain has been dominated by the affairs of the army, whose presence has deterred the inquiring eyes of casual observers. Stonehenge and the numerous archaeological remains that can be found on the Plain, however, constantly remind us that people have lived in the region for hundreds of years. Although a seemingly bleak and inhospitable place, it has provided ideal grazing for multitudes of sheep, and villages have gradually developed along its valley. The photographs in this fascinating selection paint a vivid picture of life on the Plain since the days of Queen Victoria and record the dramatic transformation the area has undergone in the hands of the War Department. They offer glimpses of life in the villages, in the town of Amesbury, and in enigmatic Imber - a tragic casualty of the Second World War - in the days before the soldiers, and chronicle the emerging army camps.  he final selection is an overview of Salisbury Plain as seen through the camera of Austin Underwood, a commercial photographer and journalist who knew the area intimately. Drawn largely from private collections and published here for the first time, around 200 photographs take us into the heart of this mysterious region and bring old faces and places to life. Jointly complied by two of Wiltshire's most popular and widely-read authors, the combination of social history and nostalgia within these evocative pages will be enjoyed by military enthusiasts, residents past and present, and visitors, and appeal to all those with an interest in Wiltshire's history.

The acquisition and management of information is central to the operation and marketing of many service-providing firms and other organizations. Their varied knowledge requirements influence approaches to organizational structure, relationships to other organizations, the location of operations, and entry into new markets. In this book, an international and interdisciplinary team of leading scholars examines the attributes of knowledge acquisition and diffusion within and across service-providing organizations. Using a variety of case examples, they pay particular attention to the processes of internationalization and the ways in which service-providing organizations affect regional economic development.

""The Legend of Booker's Guitar"" chronicles the incredible story of Delta blues singer Booker White (aka Bukka White) and his iconic National steel guitar, 'Hard Rock.' For the first time, the life and career of Booker White is explored in depth, revealing how White overcame poverty, imprisonment and obscurity to ultimately achieve success and worldwide acclaim as a genuine blues legend. Behind the scenes, White's friendship with a young photographer in the UK has far-reaching consequences, ultimately leading to the creation of a best-selling album, ""Booker's Guitar,"" by modern day blues hero Eric Bibb in 2010. Lavishly illustrated with dozens of rare, previously unpublished photographs, ""The Legend of Booker's Guitar"" ultimately pays tribute to two remarkable musicians from contrasting eras, joined together in creative spirit and innate talent, as well as the physical connection of a single, shared instrument.
