Book excerpt: NEW UPDATED EDITION FOR FANS OF HOCKEY AND SPORT EVERYWHERE This commemorative 2nd Edition is one of the most important recent contributions to hockey literature and is consistently among Amazon's bestsellers for hockey. This is the inspiring story of the first American team to win the Stanley Cup, with six new chapters on their pursuit to become one of sports' first dynasties. In the winter of 1917, as Europe spiraled rapidly out of control and pulled the U.S. into the greatest conflict the world had ever seen, a talented band of athletes in the Pacific Northwest fought to turn themselves into an elite team. That elite team would battle the looming war, their own insecurities, and fierce opponents on both coasts of Canada to captivate a community and journey toward hockey immortality. When It Mattered Most breathes life into the humanity and times of a remarkable team during a monumental three-and-a-half-year period of world history, inspiring readers with a never-before-seen look into the evolution of Hall of Fame players, an improbable championship team, a war largely overshadowed by its second incarnation, and the twentieth centuries' deadliest scourge - the Spanish Flu pandemic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, and even since the bursting of the technology bubble, pundits, consultants, and thought leaders have argued that information technology provides the edge necessary for business success. IT expert Nicholas G. Carr offers a radically different view in this eloquent and explosive book. As IT's power and presence have grown, he argues, its strategic relevance has actually decreased. IT has been transformed from a source of advantage into a commoditized "cost of doing business"--with huge implications for business management. Expanding on Carr's seminal Harvard Business Review article that generated a storm of controversy, Does IT Matter? provides a truly compelling--and unsettling--account of IT's changing business role and its leveling influence on competition. Through astute analysis of historical and contemporary examples, Carr shows that the evolution of IT closely parallels that of earlier technologies such as railroads and electric power. He goes on to lay out a new agenda for IT management, stressing cost control and risk management over innovation and investment. And he examines the broader implications for business strategy and organization as well as for the technology industry. A frame-changing statement on one of the most important business phenomena of our time, Does IT Matter? marks a crucial milepost in the debate about IT's future. An acclaimed business writer and thinker, Nicholas G. Carr is a former executive editor of the Harvard Business Review.

Book excerpt: Backstabbed by the United States during the Kargil War, Karthik, a space scientist, is now passionately striving to realize his dream of developing a highly functional indigenous GPS for India. Meanwhile, Govind is enduring to carve out a life for himself in the French waters, unaware that these waters are about to change his fate. Ashwin, on the other hand, is on his way to join a specialized commando regiment. He is unaware of the ill fate he has called upon himself—a decision that he is soon going to regret. Three lives running in parallel dimensions, in different time zones, in different worlds, are about to be transacted by a common force. In a gut-wrenching sequence of events, the lives of three friends are about to be braided in an unimaginable, high-octane climax. The bond that the trio had nurtured is going to be tested by fire, and answers will be sought for one of the most profound questions of life - who stood by… When It Mattered?

Book excerpt: People want to buy from, work for, and partner with companies that matter. So how do you build a company that matters? Companies and people that matter have successfully become the obvious choice in the hearts and minds of their customers, their employees, and their communities. They elevate themselves by consistently finding ways to solve the most pressing needs their markets face. The result? They create more value year after year and build a sustainable, differentiated organization. In Matter, Peter Sheahan and Julie Williamson show you how to identify the place where you can create the most value—your edge of disruption—at the intersection of old and new, where your existing profits, reach, and reputation enable you to create the markets of the future. This is the place where the most important problems are solved and where the fewest people can solve them. Your edge of disruption is where your opportunity to matter is found. Matter uses extensive case studies of real companies that have successfully become the obvious choice in their markets—from high-profile corporations like Adobe and Burberry to lesser-known brands like Littlefield and BlueShore Financial. Their stories define innovative and impactful approaches to business that you can use to influence and partner with the right customers and clients to win in our radically changing world. Through their journeys, you will find the inspiration and courage to lean in to complexity and solve the higher value problems that matter most. Don't just read this book—use it to identify and act on opportunities to create the most value and accelerate your own journey to becoming a person and a company that matters.
