Management Through the Woods and Over the Rivers is based on Outdoor Based Experiential Training Programme (OBET) or Outdoor Management Style, which speaks of twenty-five years ahead of time. The objectives of Outdoor Management are elaborated in depth and a case study based on the experiences of five selected industries is presented in this book. This book elaborates on how to evaluate the leadership quality, system problem solving ability, experimentation, learning from past experiences and transferring knowledge. A model of OBET that catalyses the process of learning in more than twenty-five companies in India, including Aurangabad, Pune and Mumbai through the author’s consultancy services COSMOS Outward Bound Pioneers, India, an NGO, has also been discussed in this book. The advantage of OMD is that it is away from the pressures and inhibitions of day-to-day work. The last chapter is supported by meaningful models on future vision and taxonomy of thinking. So, are you ready for the Change?

“Eat, Pray, Love” Meets “When You Look Like Your Passport Photo, It’s Time to Go Home” Travel! Adventure! Romance! What could possibly go wrong? It’s 1972 when free-spirited “good girl,” Fay, takes off on a 3-year journey around the U.S. and Europe in search of adventure. She soon finds navigating her way through The Real World will take a skill set her Sunday school teacher never taught her. Bravely facing all manor of revenge plagues rained down upon from The Almighty—she is breaking The Rules, after all—Fay must learn to recalibrate her conservative group-think or abandon her road-trip-as-a-lifestyle existence and retreat to the soul-crushing community from which she escaped. Part historical snapshot, part travelogue and part confessional, this laugh-out-loud memoir is the story of every woman who has pondered the road not taken or grappled with the guilt of not being able to live up to rules she didn't even make.
Far from being mere antiquarian or sentimental curiosities, the rebuilt or reused fortresses of the Rhine reflect major changes in Germany and Europe during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Taylor begins The Castles of the Rhine with a synopsis of the major political, social and intellectual changes that influenced castle rebuilding in the nineteenth century. He then focuses on selected castles, describing their turbulent histories from the time of their original construction, through their destruction or decay, to their rediscovery in the 1800s and their continued preservation today. Reading this book is equivalent to looking at history though a romantic-nationalist kaleidoscope. Amply illustrated with maps and photographs, The Castles of the Rhine is a wonderful companion for anyone with dreams or experience of journeying along the Rhine.
In 1938 Anderl Heckmair made the first ascent of the North Face of the Eiger, a monumental climb that cemented his place in history. In My Life he tells the story of how he turned from a fragile child wrapped, 'quite literally, in cotton bindings,' into one of the most important mountaineers in the world. Leaving school in 1920, Heckmair dedicated himself to climbing, becoming a full-time 'mountain vagabond'. Penniless, he lived in Alpine huts and cycled from climb to climb, even riding from Germany to the High Atlas mountains of Morocco. He rapidly developed as a mountaineer, making an ascent of the Walker Spur in awful weather, and a solo ascent of the Matterhorn in walking shoes, a feat that nobody believed. But his crowning achievement, climbed in full media glare, would always be his Eiger ascent. Events did not always run smoothly - arrested after a quarrel with a farmer, he escaped through a window ('never imprison mountain climbers in towers'). When arrested again, his ice axes mistaken for deadly weapons while he slept on a park bench, Heckmair chose to stay put, preferring the cell bunk to his bench. At times, the book ventures into darker territory. As one of the great German climbers of the 1930s, Heckmair inevitably attracted the attention of the Nazi party, he found his Eiger triumph twisted to suit their ends, and he himself seated next to Hitler at a party. But at its heart My Life is a celebration of adventure. Told in joyful, engaging and relaxed style, it is as full of life and passion for the mountains as Anderl Heckmair himself.
