Book Description
Without Henry, wildflowers would go unwatered in dry weather and rivers would have no crossing stones. Without him, who would bring news of coming storms? Henry works, but no one seems to notice. “You’re not doing anything today,” his friend says. “Come fishing with me.” “Not today,” says Henry as he digs up a healing plant for a neighbor. Though he never gets paid, Henry works for more than money. In this fourth book about Henry David Thoreau, D. B. Johnson’s quiet story flows through morning’s mist to evening’s glow, when, at last, Henry’s most important work is revealed!

The Collected Works of Henry G. Manne
Author: Henry G. Manne
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780865977648
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Professor Henry G. Manne is one of the founding scholars of the influential discipline of law and economics, as well as founder of the Law and Economics Center at George Mason University and dean emeritus of the George Mason School of Law. Among the first to apply economic analysis to concepts of corporations and corporate law, Manne developed a comprehensive theory of the modern corporation that has provided a framework for legal, economic, and financial analysis of the corporate firm for more than forty years. The works in this three-volume collection, selected by Professor Fred S. McChesney of the Northwestern University School of Law and introduced by leading academics in the field, span nearly half a century of Manne scholarship. Each volume covers a different aspect of Henry Manne's large body of scholarly works. Volume 1, The Economics of Corporations and Corporate Law, includes Manne's seminal writings on corporate law and economics. Manne's theory of the market for corporation control revolutionized thinking about the nature of corporations and the shareholder-corporation relationship. Challenging the accepted wisdom of his time, Manne insisted that market forces could help constrain corporate managers to act in shareholders' interests. Volume 2, Insider Trading, gives not only a retrospective on Manne's innovative contributions to insider trading but also a context for understanding the complex world of corporate law and securities regulation. Manne's proposal to deregulate insider trading shocked the academy and forced a reevaluation of long-held views on the subject. The works included here, which range from scholarly papers to newspaper columns, span forty years and demonstrate the evolution of his understanding of insider trading. Volume 3, Liberty and Freedom in the Economic Ordering of Society, explores Manne's philosophy on corporate social responsibility in modern society and his views on corporate philanthropy. This volume also contains works on the regulation of capital markets and securities offerings; the role of the law school in the modern university; and the relationships between law, regulation, and the free market." -- Back cover.

Book Description
"In short, all good things are wild and free."—Henry David Thoreau In Walking with Henry, award-winning illustrator and author Thomas Locker takes young readers on a journey into the wilderness with one of America's greatest nature writers, Henry David Thoreau. In a series of richly painted landscapes, readers glimpse the grandeur of nature through Thoreau's eyes. This introduction to the poet–philosopher offers readers of all ages the chance to understand Thoreau's belief that wilderness offers truth, beauty, and goodness to us all. He was a serious field biologist who studied nature and all its intricacies, but also a man who showed us that nature was something more than facts to be assembled, arranged, and measured. Thoreau was a poet, and in his hands, nature was the source of creativity, essential for survival in the ever-evolving world. With selections of Thoreau's writing and a timeline of his life, Walking with Henry will inspire teachers, parents, and students to a renewed appreciation of the importance of Thoreau's thoughts for our time. Thomas Locker has illustrated more than thirty books for children, many of which he has also written. His books have received awards including the Christopher Award, the Knickerbocker Lifetime Achievement Award, the John Burroughs Award, and The New York Times Award for Best Illustration.
