Twenty first century, flexible capitalism creates new demands for those who work to acknowledge that all aspects of their lives have come to be seen as performance related, and consequently of interest to those who employ them (or fire them). At the start of the 21st century we can identify, borrowing from Max Weber, new work ethics that provide novel ethically slanted maxims for the conduct of a life, and which suggest that the cultivation of the self as an enterprise is the life-long activity that should give meaning, purpose and direction to a life. The book provides an innovative theoretical and methodological approach that draws on the problematising critique of Michel Foucault, the sociological imagination of Zygmunt Bauman and the work influenced by these authors in social theory and social research in the last three decades. The author takes seriously the ambivalence and irony that marks many people’s experience of their working lives, and the demands of work at the start of the 21st century. The book makes an important contribution to the continuing debate about the nature of work related identities and the consequences of the intensification of the work regimes in which these identities are performed and regulated. In a post global financial crisis (GFC) world of sovereign debt, austerity and recession the author’s analysis focuses academic and professional interest on neo-liberal injunctions to imagine ourselves as an enterprise, and to reap the rewards and carry the costs of the conduct of this enterprise.

A "must read" for art historians. Clear testament to the strange paradox that genius need not necessarily be hindered by madness. Fort Lauderdale, The Journal of Florida Artist Rupert W. Miles is a "found diary" by the late Rupert W. Miles, who died in 1990. He was a locally popular modernist painter, but recognition on a national or even a regional scale eluded him. The journal is edited and includes a foreword by Man Morrow to explain just what it is. And indeed, what it is, is a perfectly bizarre story the likes of which we haven't seen for a very long time. It is adult and highly erotic at times. Other times it is slapstick funny. Throughout, it is an adventure story of the first order. It includes several photos of Miles' artwork.

What are the real secrets to entrepreneurial success?

But even with a professionally written plan and a good source of financing established, most businesses still fail within the first two years. Why? There is so much more to learn and understand about having a successful business than simply having a good plan and a source of financing.
