When we discuss accelerating top line growth and maximizing profitability, we often consider hiring more people or cutting expenses or raising prices. We don't always look at ways to better exploit what we already have. Instead of hiring new people, we need to improve the performance of our current employees. Instead of cutting costs, we need better invest the money we do spend. Instead of raising prices we need to identify our ideal customers and sell to them. This book will discuss strategies on how to do all of these things and more. It will give you 25 ways to accelerate revenue growth and increase profitability immediately, without making any new financial investments. That is the Unified Theory of Profitability. It means you look at your organization and find ways to better leverage what you already have. It means focusing on those strategies that can provide the best results. It means becoming an expert on executing on those strategies. You can do this. You just need to find the ideas that work for you and commit to implementing them.

"Pindar was one of the most famous ancient Greek lyric poets, and perhaps the best known of the canonical nine lyric poets of ancient Greece. He was regarded in antiquity as the greatest of Greek poets and the esteem of the ancients may help explain why a good portion of his work was carefully preserved (most of the other Greek lyric poems come down to us only in fragments, but nearly a quarter of all Pindar's poems survive complete). He is particularly known for his epinicia (or victory odes) in honour of notable personages and winners of athletic games"--Provided by publisher.

Paulson retrieves an aesthetics that had strong support during the eighteenth century but has been obscured both by the more dominant academic discourse of Shaftesbury (and later Sir Joshua Reynolds) and by current trends in art and literary history. Arguing that the two traditions comprised not only painterly but also literary theory and practice, Paulson explores the innovations of Henry Fielding, John Cleland, Laurence Sterne, and Oliver Goldsmith, which followed and complemented the practice in the visual arts of Hogarth and his followers. In The Beautiful, Novel, and Strange Ronald Paulson fills a lacuna in studies of aesthetics at its point of origin in England in the 1700s. He shows how aesthetics took off not only from British empiricism but also from such forms of religious heterodoxy as deism. The third earl of Shaftesbury, the founder of aesthetics, replaced the Christian God of rewards and punishments with beauty - worship of God, with a taste for a work of art. William Hogarth, reacting against Shaftesbury's "disinterestedness," replaced his Platonic abstractions with an aesthetics centered on the human body, gendered female, and based on an epistemology of curiosity, pursuit, and seduction. Paulson shows Hogarth creating, first in practice and then in theory, a middle area between the Beautiful and the Sublime by adapting Joseph Addison's category (in the Spectator) of the Novel, Uncommon, and Strange.
