Reginald Rose and the Journey of 12 Angry Men

release date: Oct 05, 2021
Reginald Rose and the Journey of 12 Angry Men
Finalist, 2021 Wall Award (Formerly the Theatre Library Association Award) The untold story behind one of America’s greatest dramas In early 1957, a low-budget black-and-white movie opened across the United States. Consisting of little more than a dozen men arguing in a dingy room, it was a failure at the box office and soon faded from view. Today, 12 Angry Men is acclaimed as a movie classic, revered by the critics, beloved by the public, and widely performed as a stage play, touching audiences around the world. It is also a favorite of the legal profession for its portrayal of ordinary citizens reaching a just verdict and widely taught for its depiction of group dynamics and human relations. Few twentieth-century American dramatic works have had the acclaim and impact of 12 Angry Men. Reginald Rose and the Journey of “12 Angry Men” tells two stories: the life of a great writer and the journey of his most famous work, one that ultimately outshined its author. More than any writer in the Golden Age of Television, Reginald Rose took up vital social issues of the day—from racial prejudice to juvenile delinquency to civil liberties—and made them accessible to a wide audience. His 1960s series, The Defenders, was the finest drama of its age and set the standard for legal dramas. This book brings Reginald Rose’s long and successful career, its origins and accomplishments, into view at long last. By placing 12 Angry Men in its historical and social context—the rise of television, the blacklist, and the struggle for civil rights—author Phil Rosenzweig traces the story of this brilliant courtroom drama, beginning with the chance experience that inspired Rose, to its performance on CBS’s Westinghouse Studio One in 1954, to the feature film with Henry Fonda. The book describes Sidney Lumet’s casting, the sudden death of one actor, and the contribution of cinematographer Boris Kaufman. It explores the various drafts of the drama, with characters modified and scenes added and deleted, with Rose settling on the shattering climax only days before filming began. Drawing on extensive research and brimming with insight, this book casts new light on one of America’s great dramas—and about its author, a man of immense talent and courage. Author royalties will be donated equally to the Feerick Center for Social Justice at Fordham Law School and the Justice John Paul Stevens Jury Center at Chicago-Kent College of Law.

Left Brain, Right Stuff

release date: Jan 07, 2014
Left Brain, Right Stuff
Left Brain, Right Stuff takes up where other books about decision making leave off. For many routine choices, from shopping to investing, we can make good decisions simply by avoiding common errors, such as searching only for confirming information or avoiding the hindsight bias. But as Phil Rosenzweig shows, for many of the most important, more complex situations we face -- in business, sports, politics, and more -- a different way of thinking is required. Leaders must possess the ability to shape opinions, inspire followers, manage risk, and outmaneuver and outperform rivals. Making winning decisions calls for a combination of skills: clear analysis and calculation -- left brain -- as well as the willingness to push boundaries and take bold action -- right stuff. Of course leaders need to understand the dynamics of competition, to anticipate rival moves, to draw on the power of statistical analysis, and to be aware of common decision errors -- all features of left brain thinking. But to achieve the unprecedented in real-world situations, much more is needed. Leaders also need the right stuff. In business, they have to devise plans and inspire followers for successful execution; in politics, they must mobilize popular support for a chosen program; in the military, commanders need to commit to a battle strategy and lead their troops; and in start-ups, entrepreneurs must manage risk when success is uncertain. In every case, success calls for action as well as analysis, and for courage as well as calculation. Always entertaining, often surprising, and immensely practical, Left Brain, Right Stuff draws on a wealth of examples in order to propose a new paradigm for decision making in synch with the way we have to operate in the real world. Rosenzweig's smart and perceptive analysis of research provides fresh, and often surprising, insights on topics such as confidence and overconfidence, the uses and limits of decision models, the illusion of control, expert performance and deliberate practice, competitive bidding and new venture management, and the true nature of leadership.

Les mirages du management
Les experts en management et les chefs d'entreprise tentent, depuis plusieurs décennies, d'identifier les secrets de la réussite et proposent régulièrement de nouvelles explications et autres recettes miracles... et se trompent le plus souvent! Ce livre cherche à expliquer pourquoi il est si facile de se tromper. Aux origines de ces erreurs, on trouve habituellement un ou plusieurs "mirages", qui trompent notre jugement et nous font prendre des vessies pour des lanternes. Cet ouvrage analyse ces erreurs afin de permettre à chacun d'enlever ses œillères et de remplacer ces mirages par des jugements plus sains et objectifs. L'auteur égratigne au passage de nombreux aspects de la pensée managériale des années récentes, mais ce livre n'est pas un simple catalogue des bourdes commises par les experts et les managers. À la fois iconoclaste et rigoureux, c'est un véritable guide méthodique pour faire le tri dans le prêt-à-penser managérial.

The Java[superscript TM] Reliable Multicast[superscript TM] Service

release date: Jan 01, 1998
The Java[superscript TM] Reliable Multicast[superscript TM] Service
Abstract: "The Java[superscript TM] Reliable Multicast Service[superscript TM] (JRMS) is a set of libraries and services for building multicast-aware applications. It enables building applications that distribute data from 'senders' to 'receivers' over 'channels' with distributed control over content mix. It includes a dynamic filtering mechanism that uses Java software that is pushed into the network for interpreting the data of the receiver. JRMS supports multiple reliable multicast transport protocols via a common programming interface, which provides isolation to applications. Supported transport protocols are selectable by applications based on reliability and type of service needs. Emerging multimedia or 'push' applications can use JRMS as a better platform for reliable delivery of content to very large constituencies. As compared to unicast (point-to-point) protocols), reliable multicast enables broadcasting to groups of receivers, ensuring bandwidth conservation and timely delivery. The JRMS reliable multicast transport protocol (TRAM) is designed for high scalability. JRMS also includes related services for multicast address allocation, channel advertisement and subscription, authentication and encryption, and receiver group management. JRMS is designed to be a flexible toolkit to the application developer for authoring new types of network-centric multimedia applications."
