Daily Thoughts 8/17/2009

I read some of Peter Drucker, The Practice of Management today. Drucker reminds us that people develop, not inanimate objects. He also tells us that automation does not eliminate jobs, it often creates more jobs with more production, better training, and better pay.



I also made a brief stop into Barnes and Nobles and bought a paperback science fiction book, The Age of Ra by James Lovegrove. It is published by Solaris Books http://www.solarisbooks.com Solaris Books also published Necropath and Xenopath by Eric Brown. I have to watch this imprint because it is coming out with some interesting new science fiction authors.
