Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
The Scooter Bible is an entertaining, colorful, and authoritative history of the little motorbikes that could. Beginning with the first motor scooter in 1902, Eric Dregni is your guide to everything from the postwar American scooter boom to the golden age of Italian and European scooters, the rise of Mod scooter culture in England . . . right up to modern electric scooters. Today, nostalgia for vintage Vespas, Piaggios, Cushmans, Lambrettas, and other top brands drive a new thirst for retro-inspired scooters in showrooms around the world. This revised and updated edition of The Scooter Bible brings the story up to date with the drive for zero emissions via electric vehicles. Throughout, author Eric Dregni offers you a wealth of imagery: historic black-and-white photos, evocative period advertisements, manufacturer photos, and more—over 500 images! Along the way, he also shows you scooter evolution, changing technologies, and scooter appearances in popular culture. And as the most comprehensive scooter book ever, The Scooter Bible also includes the world’s most exhaustive encyclopedia of scooter brands, from Puddlejumper to Piaggio, Ducati to Doodlebug, and Zündapp Bella to Genuine Stella. The Scooter Bible is all you need before kick-starting your scooter engine to life and praying for ever more speed. Indeed, scooters are mechanical marvels on two wheels. Streamlined spuds. Mutant oddballs of Jet Age styling gone berserk. Innovative inventions shoehorned like sardines into miniaturized monocoque bodies. Engineering and styling enigmas (the stranger the better). They are the weird and the wonderful. And they are all here in The Scooter Bible.

The Candidate
Author: Antonio Grimaldi
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1481733974
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
The hiring process for professionals has traditionally been controlled by a single manager who is unprepared to make critical judgments about candidates for open positions in the company. Traditionally, managers hire based on their own preferences, inspiring candidates to network rather than actually improve themselves. These managers have become notoriously corrupt and incompetent, hiring candidates who charm them with impressive degrees, awards, personality, and exaggerated achievements. As a result, managers continually hire people who are charming but cannot actually perform, and the entire economy is weakened. The failure to properly evaluate a candidate leads directly to dissatisfaction in the workplace, absenteeism, and even industrial espionage. This book presents an insightful new solution to the problem. Based on more than thirty years of experience, Dr. Antonio Grimaldi has invented a system by which managers can quantify the life of a job applicant to effectively identify the most qualified candidate for a position. Dr. Grimaldi's system first focuses on the quantification of credits before the candidate is examined: the review of the résumé. During the interview process, a committee of three managers ask specific, qualitative questions about a candidate's background and experience. Finally, the candidate is scored and the committee selects the best candidate. Dr. Grimaldi's system doesn't eliminate the personal opinion of the managers and the personality of the candidate from the interview experience, but limits their "weight" in a way that is not determinant in the final decision. Managers who follow this innovative method can quantify a candidate's experience and select employees based on diligent review of their background rather than the managers' own preferences, which can be erroneous or conditioned by corruption or ineptitude. Nathan J. Barnes, Ph.D.

Our Ridiculous World (Trip)
Author: Reece Gilkes
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781838132903
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
This fast-paced, often-humorous travel book tells the truly ridiculous story of how two British friends, Matt Bishop and Reece Gilkes, became the first people to circumnavigate the globe on a scooter with a sidecar. Their world-record-breaking 34,000-mile-long journey took them through thirty-five countries and across five continents. With no experience of mechanics, overlanding, or even riding motorbikes, the pair took their Honda scooter and barn-built sidecar through some of the world's toughest environments, including a scorching Sahara Desert and the frozen wilds of a Siberian winter.This heartwarming story will restore your faith in humanity as strangers all over the world save the pair from the life-threatening and downright idiotic situations in which they find themselves. At the same time, the book lifts the curtain on the issue of modern slavery, which still plagues every country on earth. Matt and Reece meet survivors of modern slavery and organisations fighting it all over the world, and the hard-hitting stories they share will leave you questioning your role in the issue-and asking how you can help. "Reading this refreshing book is easy-time just slips by-but that's the only easy thing about the whole affair. So my advice is: Think of something you'd love to do that's really quite ridiculously impossible. Then read the book. Then go and do it. I must say, it really takes me back . . ." - Ted Simon, author of Jupiter's Travels "The many threads of this gripping adventure unfold as a powerful, at times opinionated, heart-tweaking, fast-flowing journey of surprises. Woven into the stories are top tips, quirky facts about the lands traversed, and a wonderfully self-depreciating sense of humour. This story is proof that a positive attitude, determination, respect towards others, and wide-open minds can change the world. Adventurists are going to love the challenges and, at times, readers are going to have to put this book down so they can really think about the images attached to the words they have just read." - Sam Manicom, author of Into Africa."A powerfully-written tale about travelling with purpose. But what a daft machine to use!" - Paddy Tyson, Overland MagazineYou can also get a signed copy of this book with colour pictures at www.armchairadventurefestival.com/shop.
