...Driverless Cars Many people die each year because of car accidents caused by a lack of caution and safety. With improvements in technology, the number of people who die can and will lessen. Driverless cars should be permitted on roads because they cause fewer accidents and increase safety. To begin, driverless cars should be permitted on roads because they cause fewer accidents. In the article Cars of Tomorrow-Still not Flying, the author states that Google’s fleet of driverless cars drive half a million miles without an accident compared to humans that get into an accident every half a million miles. One of the big reasons people get into accidents is because they drive while drunk. Driverless cars have a unique technology system that hits...

...Self-driving cars are on of today's biggest controversies. In the article,”Is the idea of driverless cars gaining popularity?” both sides of the argument are presented, however the con argument is stronger. Both sides of the article have different purposes. In addition, the pro’s author, Justin Haskins, has fishy credentials, while Whitt Flora’s are solid. Furthermore, Justin has one okay point supported by studies, but Whitt has many, very logical, science proved and good points. While Justin Haskins has a good argument, Whitt Flora’s is stronger in the article. Both sides of the controversy in this article have different purposes. Haskins’ purpose of the article is to open people up to the idea of self-driving cars. One way his writing shows this is by using an often complained about problem and it’s solution to write his side of the controversy. This would open people up to self-driving cars because it sheds light in a gray area for most people, who would take the fix if it's an easy one. On the contrary, Whitt’s purpose is to make sure people understand all parts of self-driving cars. One sentence that shows this is, “A nationwide network of million of self-driving cars whisking suburban...

...Albirini, Karen DuBois, Missy Habig, Craig Naugle The Future of the Automobile Industry Industry Scope When we first started organizing our thoughts on what to focus on within the automobile industry we found ourselves drawn to the population size and safety features (safety for individuals and for environment). We stimulated our strategic thinking by asking the following questions: What will the automobile industry at large look like in 2025? What trends/shifts will shape mobility in the years to come? What will drive the success of future winners? We quickly realized that our project scope needed to be broader to cover all of the megatrends we indentified and address them as it pertains to specific geographic regions of the world. Cars being mass produced on the assembly line will be a thing of the past. The commercials today for Buick of not ‘driving your father’s Buick’ will even be more pronounced in 2025. In fact, my father would have thought he was living in a science fiction movie! The mantra of ‘have it your way’ will become the mission statement of the automobile industry – both from a consumer and an employee perspective…if they want to remain successful in the industry. Our results? The automobile industry will remain a capital-intensive business model and thus limited in terms of its margin growth. However, over the next fifteen years the automobile industry will remain an exciting place. The industry’s center of gravity will change, core technologies will...

...At liftoff, Matt Eversmann said a Hail Mary. He was curled into a seat between two helicopter crew chiefs, the knees of his long legs up to his shoulders. Before him, jammed on both sides of the Black Hawk helicopter, was his "chalk," twelve young men in flak vests over tan desert camouflage fatigues. He knew their faces so well they were like brothers. The older guys on this crew, like Eversmann, a staff sergeant with five years in at age twenty-six, had lived and trained together for years. Some had come up together through basic training, jump school, and Ranger school. They had traveled the world, to Korea, Thailand, Central America... they knew each other better than most brothers did. They'd been drunk together, gotten into fights, slept on forest floors, jumped out of airplanes, climbed mountains, shot down foaming rivers with their hearts in their throats, baked and frozen and starved together, passed countless bored hours, teased one another endlessly about girlfriends or lack of same, driven in the middle of the night from Fort Benning to retrieve each other from some diner or strip club on Victory Drive after getting drunk and falling asleep or pissing off some barkeep. Through all those things, they had been training for a moment like this. It was the first time the lanky sergeant had been put in charge, and he was nervous about it. Pray for us sinners, now, and at the hour of our death, Amen. It was midafternoon, October 3, 1993. Eversmann's Chalk Four...

.... Organization Theory Challenges and Perspectives John McAuley, Joanne Duberley and Phil Johnson . This book is, to my knowledge, the most comprehensive and reliable guide to organisational theory currently available. What is needed is a text that will give a good idea of the breadth and complexity of this important subject, and this is precisely what McAuley, Duberley and Johnson have provided. They have done some sterling service in bringing together the very diverse strands of work that today qualify as constituting the subject of organisational theory. Whilst their writing is accessible and engaging, their approach is scholarly and serious. It is so easy for students (and indeed others who should know better) to trivialize this very problematic and challenging subject. This is not the case with the present book. This is a book that deserves to achieve a wide readership. Professor Stephen Ackroyd, Lancaster University, UK This new textbook usefully situates organization theory within the scholarly debates on modernism and postmodernism, and provides an advanced introduction to the heterogeneous study of organizations, including chapters on phenomenology, critical theory and psychoanalysis. Like all good textbooks, the book is accessible, well researched and readers are encouraged to view chapters as a starting point for getting to grips with the field of organization theory. Dr Martin Brigham, Lancaster University, UK McAuley et al. provide a highly readable account...
