We often focus on winning at the expense of others, which can create problems in and outside of the workplace. David Gray, a longtime professor of psychology, makes the case that everything runs much smoother when everyone is a winner. That goal can be achieved when people cooperate instead of competing. Taking an approach that relies heavily on the behavioral sciences, the author provides the tools you need to: turn mutual threats into motivation, transform conflict into creative productivity, build structures that stimulate winning, share power and profits with others. By examining historical events and contemporary society, it is clear to see that when someone loses because the rules were unfair, he or she tends to either become apathetic, half-heartedly compliant, or out-rightly hostile. Substance abuse and domestic abuse are also common responses. Opting for a more cooperative approach has helped democracies, religions, and companies boost the happiness and productivity of their respective constituents. You can do the same by applying the lessons in When Everyone Wins.

This new Edition of the Works of David Gray, containing, it isbelieved, all the maturely finished poems of the author, is a doublememorial. It commemorates "the thin-spun life" of a man of truegenius and rare promise, and the highly cultured judgment and tendersympathies of a critic who has passed away in the vigorous fulness ofhis years.A specimen page of "The Luggie," forwarded with an appreciative letterfrom a friend, reached the author on the day before his death. Hereceived it as "good news"--the fragmentary realization of his ambitiousdreams--and, in the hope that his name might not be wholly forgotten,said he could now enter "without tears" into his rest.Within a week before his removal from amongst us, Mr. Glassford Bellwas engaged in correcting the proofs of the present edition. He hadselected from a mass of MSS. and other material what new pieces hethought worthy of insertion in this enlarged edition--he had rearrangedthe whole and finally revised the greater part of the volume, which itwas his intention to preface with a Memoir and Criticism. He lookedforward to accomplishing this labour of love in a period of retirementfrom more active work which he had proposed to pass in Italy.It has been thought inadvisable to commit to other hands theunexpectedly interrupted task. For a statement of the few andsimple vicissitudes of the Poet's career, as well as a brief butdiscriminating estimate of his rank in our literature, the reader isreferred to the speech--at the close of the volume--delivered by Mr.Bell, nine years ago, on the inauguration of the Monument in the"Auld Aisle" Burying-ground. Of the movement which resulted in thistribute to departed genius, the late Sheriff was one of the most activepromoters. Himself a poet, and a generous patron of all genuine art,the West of Scotland has known no "larger heart" or "kindlier hand."There is something suggestive in the fact that his last effort was tothrow another wreath on the early tomb of David Gray.
