Renowned business strategist Kenichi Ohmae's path breaking ideas on the globalization of industries and products have made headlines in leading financial newspapers and business publications on three continents. Now, in this eagerly awaited book, Ohmae integrates and expands his much discussed concepts. Ohmae explains that becoming an insider means nothing less than full membership in the indigenous business communities at each corner of the Triad.
Power, the third element of the triad, is a leader's traditional right to make decisions and resolve conflicts. Although a leader can make decisions by command, Zand notes that in today's knowledge-driven organization with educated, informed employees, the effective leader rarely issues directives, but instead acts more as a consultant and a client.

The law of three is unbroken: three vampires form a coterie, three demons make a pack, and three wizards are a coven. That is how it has always been, and how it was always to be. But Luc, Anders, and Curtis—vampire, demon, and wizard—have cheated tradition. Their bond is not coterie, pack, or coven, but something else.

The enemy they know conjures fire and death at every turn. The enemies they don’t know are worse. Blood, soul, and magic gave them freedom. Now they need to survive it.

In the months after the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the American scientific establishment, the American government, and the American public all wrestled with what was called the "problem of secrecy," wondering not only whether secrecy was appropriate and effective as a means of controlling this new technology but also whether it was compatible with the country's core values. Out of a messy context of propaganda, confusion, spy scares, and the grave counsel of competing groups of scientists, what historian Alex Wellerstein calls a "new regime of secrecy" was put into place. It was unlike any other previous or since. Nuclear secrets were given their own unique legal designation in American law ("restricted data"), one that operates differently than all other forms of national security classification and exists to this day. Drawing on massive amounts of declassified files, including records released by the government for the first time at the author's request, Restricted Data is a narrative account of nuclear secrecy and the tensions and uncertainty that built as the Cold War continued. In the US, both science and democracy are pitted against nuclear secrecy, and this makes its history uniquely compelling and timely"--
