简介： When young Mark Robarts was leaving college, his father might well declare that all men began to say all good things to him, and to extol his fortune in that he had a son blessed with an excellent disposition. This father was a physician living at Exeter. He was a gentleman possessed of no private means, but enjoying a lucrative practice, which had enabled him to maintain and educate a family with all the advantages which money can give in this country. Mark was his eldest son and second child a查看详情>

简介： On the evening of the 17th March 1859, Captain Craventy gave a fête at Fort Reliance. Our readers must not at once imagine a grand entertainment, such as a court ball, or a musical soirée with a fine orchestra. Captain Craventy&rsquos reception was a very simple affair, yet he had spared no pains to give it éclat.In fact, under the auspices of Corporal Joliffe, the large room on the ground-floor was completely transformed. The rough walls, constructed of roughly-hewn trunks of t查看详情>

简介： THE family of Dashwood had long been settled in Sussex. Their estate was large, and their residence was at Norland Park, in the centre of their property, where, for many generations, they had lived in so respectable a manner as to engage the general good opinion of their surrounding acquaintance. The late owner of this estate was a single man, who lived to a very advanced age, and who, for many years of his life, had a constant companion and housekeeper in his sister. But her death, which happen查看详情>

简介： Ennis Del Mar wakes before five, wind rocking the trailer, hissing in around the aluminum door and window frames. The shirts hanging on a nail shudder slightly in the draft. He gets up, scratching the grey wedge of belly and pubic hair, shuffles to the gas burner, pours leftover coffee in a chipped enamel pan the flame swathes it in blue. He turns on the tap and urinates in the sink, pulls on his shirt and jeans, his worn boots, stamping the heels against the floor to get them full on. The wind 查看详情>

简介： 顺流而下坐慢船，由重庆顺流而下，我来到了涪陵。这是一个温暖，清爽的夜晚，在1996年八月的尾声。长江上星光闪烁，星光微弱，无法从黑色的水面反射出来。一辆学校派来的小车，载着我们从码头出发，沿着丛丛曲折的小路前行。城市在我们身边急速掠过，在星光之下，它显得黯淡，陌生。我们有两个人。我，27岁；亚当梅勒，22岁，我们还很年轻，是被派到这里来做教师的。之前我们几乎从未听闻过涪陵。我所知的，乃是这城市部分将因新近建设的三峡大坝而淹没，我还知道，涪陵许多年来，一直对外面的人封闭。除此，就没什么关于涪陵的信息了。半个世纪来，没有美国人在此生活过。后来，我碰到城里一些长者，他们还记得在1940年代住在这里的美国居民，在1949年共产党解放之前，而这些记忆又总是相当的模糊。在我们抵达时，这里还住有另一个外国人，一个德国人，他在一所当地中学教了一个学期。但我们只和他碰了一次面，其后不久他便离开了。在那之后，我们便是这小城中仅有的两个外国人。这里的人口大约二十万，以中国的标准来说只能算是小城。涪陵不通铁路。长期以来，它都是四川省的一个贫穷地区，公路状况很是糟糕。去哪儿你都得搭船，而多数时候，你哪儿也不会去查看详情>

简介： 每当我钻进被窝搂着海伦时，我都会想到这世界上再没有比在天寒地冻的夜里搂着自己的好女人更享受的事。　　20世纪30年代的时候还没有电热毯，或许是那时的人们觉得兽医比这些玩意儿都重要吧。总之，在凌晨时分新陈代谢到了最低点的时候，被迫从温暖的被窝中爬出来是最残忍不过的事了。　　幸而，自我结婚以后，这种寒夜出诊的苦差事已经在我记忆中淡出了，因为每当我像刚从北极回来似的爬回她身边时，她总是毫不畏惧地迎接我，用她的体温温暖我那冻得跟冰棒似的躯体。顿时，两个小时之内所发生的事情似乎都像梦那么不真实了。　　这天凌晨1点电话又响了。星期天凌晨听到这种尖锐的电话声是很平常的，因为周末一些晚睡的农人总会在睡前检查牲口，看看是不是要找个倒霉的兽医。　　这回是应海罗先生，他说话的时候总是用那单薄沙哑的声音一口气说完一个句子。　　&ldquo我的母羊有点毛病，你来一趟好吗？&rdquo　　&ldquo很严重吗？&rdquo每次半夜昏头昏脑地接到这类电话时，我都期待着对方愿意延到第二天早晨。不过这种奢望从未实现过，至少像应先生这种人是死也不会愿意的。　　&ldquo很糟，我想总得有个人过来瞧瞧。&rdquo　　看来查看详情>

简介： 总序前言全球化市场的形成，使得地球变得越来越小。在全球化市场竞争中已经没有一块受保护的领地。任何企业要想生存和发展就必须面对激烈的竞争。所有的企业在竞争中必须面对&ldquo优胜劣汰，适者生存&rdquo这一游戏规则，而不论其原来的基础如何。这是公平的，也是残酷的。中国加入WTO以后，我们的企业已经清醒地认识到，所面对的竞争对手将是那些世界级的企业。在新的形势下，我们的企业要生存、要发展，就必须以主动的姿态参与全球市场竞争并赢得竞争。而要赢得竞争，就要知己知彼。那么，今天西方的和东方的世界级企业的竞争优势是什么呢？我们容易看到产品和技术，而深层次的东西则是管理的理念和工具！ERP是Enterprise Resource Planning 的缩写，中文含义是企业资源计划。它代表了当前在全球范围内应用最广泛、最有效的一种企业管理方法，这种管理方法已经通过计算机软件得到了体现，因此，ERP也代表一类企业管理软件系统。ERP产生于美国。它不是产生于理论家的灵感迸发，而是产生于市场竞争的需求和实践经验的总结。ERP的思想和方法已经在美国等工业发达国家得到了广泛的应用并取得了显著的经济效益。ERP查看详情>
