All photographs are to some extent about light. The eighty-five stunning colour photographs in this book are a masterful exploration not only of the light falling on objects or filling spaces but of the very act of seeing. Whether he is photographing in a museum storage room in Washington DC, or a shrine in Myanmar, Richard Ross has an uncanny ability to distil the space and the moment, whether it is profane or sacred, into its essence. These photographs are deceptively simple in their subtle examination of the world as revealed in a single burst of light.

La danse du changement, c''est cette inévitable interaction, ce jeu croisé entre les forces qui amplifient le changement et celles qui le contrarient. Apprendre à reconnaître et maîtriser ces forces pour mieux mener la danse, voilà l''objet de ce livre. Dix ans après la parution du best-seller La Cinquième Discipline : l''art et la manière des organisations qui apprennent, Peter Senge et ses collègues apportent des réponses concrètes aux managers qui, après quelques succès initiaux, se demandent comment maintenir l''élan du changement dans leur entreprise. Toute organisation a un système immunitaire complexe dont le but est de préserver le statu quo. En se fondant sur de nouvelles approches du leadership et sur l''analyse approfondie de nombreux efforts pluriannuels de changement, les auteurs proposent des moyens d''anticiper, d''éviter et de surmonter les principaux obstacles au changement et au développement de l''entreprise. Truffé d''exercices pratiques et de cas concrets vécus dans de grandes sociétés comme Ford, General Electric, Hewlett-Packard, Shell, Toyota ou Xerox, ce livre offre des perspectives nouvelles aux organisations soucieuses d''évoluer et de perdurer.
