Book Description
How fitting to close out the 20th century with a brand new edition of Pearls & Pebbles by the noted chronicler of pioneer life, Catharine Parr Traill. Published in 1894, Pearls & Pebbles is an unusual book with a lasting charm, in which the author’s broad focus ranges from the Canadian natural environment to early settlement of Upper Canada. Through Traill’s eyes, we see the life of the pioneer woman, the disappearance of the forest, and the corresponding changes in the life of the Native Canadians who have inhabited that forest. Editor Elizabeth Thompson reminds us of the significance of the writings by Traill, the aged author/naturalist, who felt that the hours spent gathering the pebbles and pearls from her notebooks and journals written in the backwoods of Canada was not time wasted.

PEBBLES, PETALS AND PEARLS
Author: Shyam Mohan Anantula
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN: 1636696309
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
Ambition, Aspiration and Wishful thinking alone does not ensure success to a corporate manager or entrepreneur unless backed by hard work and knowledge gained from personal experience or learning from shared experiences. Any qualifying degree in management, engineering, science etc is just a passport to enter into an organisation as a rough stone falls into a river water, over a period by induction, training and organisational exposure, and peer group interaction becomes a soft and well-rounded pebble that aspires to become a petal attracting attention from professional groups, soon a higher responsibility in a functional area adores. “A Rose is a Rose call it by any other name” Mr. Manager, wouldn’t you like to brand one yourself? In everyone’s life’s there comes a phase of self-actualisation by virtue of gaining pearls of wisdom, wealth, honour societal recognition. Similarly all successful corporate managers enjoy the same as pearl after two stages of transformation - pebbles and petals. Now what’s in store for an entrepreneur? Though an entrepreneur faces several functional challenges like production, marketing, finance, HR etc but after the two stages of struggle and success as pebble and petal, one is sure to enjoy the fruits of labour. He gains not only pearls of wisdom, power, position and wealth in abundance opening channels for vertical and horizontal growth opportunities etc. The author in his creative mood covered the contents to give an overview of several management topics with personal anecdotes and success stories. This edition will surely self-help, improve performance and make one a leader. Good Luck
