多蘿西•L.塞耶斯，偵探小說黃金時代一個不朽的名字，以其塑造的貴族神探彼得•溫西勛爵為人熟知。同時她還是傑齣的詩人、劇作傢、翻譯傢、神學研究者。

一八九三年，塞耶斯齣生於英國牛津一個牧師傢庭，很小便開始學習拉丁語和法語，十九歲考入牛津大學，專修中世紀文學，是第一批獲得牛津大學學位的女性之 一。畢業後她先是任職於齣版社，後成為廣告公司撰稿人。在此期間，她開始醞釀寫作偵探小說，並於一九二三年發錶瞭首部作品《誰的屍體》（Whose Body？），彼得•溫西勛爵首次齣場。此後，塞耶斯為這位貴族業餘神探創作瞭十多部小說，溫西勛爵成為廣受讀者喜愛的偵探人物。他幽默風趣，齣語不凡， 學識淵博，愛好收藏珍本書，喜歡品酒、彈鋼琴，有個聰明、體貼的男僕，算得上是塞耶斯心目中理想的男人形象。最初他多少有些喜歡賣弄，愛齣風頭；隨著作品 的不斷問世，塞耶斯讓他的個性逐步得到發展，成為一個越發穩重、成熟的形象。最終，溫西勛爵在一九三七年的《巴士司機的蜜月》（Busman 8 Honeymoon）中退場，此後隻偶爾齣現於短篇小說中。

Filled with hundreds of specific examples and organized into a coherent framework of practical concepts that can be applied by managers and entrepreneurs at all levels, Built to Last provides a master blueprint for building organizations that will prosper in the 21st century and beyond. In Good to Great, the most widely anticipated management book of the year, Jim Collins presents nothing less than a recipe book on how to make a good company great. Following the success of his international blockbuster Built to Last, where he and co-author Jerry Porras discovered the secrets of companies that were outstanding at their founding and then sustained greatness, Collins wondered what could be done for the company that is good or mediocre at best? He questioned whether there have been companies that started weak and finished strong, and if so, what can be said about these companies that might help managers turn a mediocre organization into a great one? So Collins and his research team undertook a massive five year study of every company that has made the Fortune 500 since the advent of that listing in 1965, and has crafted a book as practical and insightful as BUILT TO LAST. This exclusive deluxe box set brings together the two most important business books of the last decade from Jim Collins, the leader in modern business theory.
