...right, class, settle down. Today, for our course on human behavior, we are pleased to have three distinguished guests who will present a lecture and demonstration on the way man's brain determines man's actions. The seminar will be led by Dr. Henri Laborit, the Paris physician and biologist who has documented the source of aggression in all mammals-from white rats up through the most sophisticated human beings. To illustrate his thesis with scenes from the lives of three ordinary people, we have engaged the services of Jean Gruault, who has written some of the finest...

It was on the "wrong" side of Fifth Avenue and was losing a staggering $1.5 million a year on sales of $3 million. W. Maxey Jarman, then chairman of Ge-nesco, Inc., a Nashville-based apparel conglomerate, snapped up the indebted store and turned it over to an unlikely boss: Geraldine Stutz, a onetime model and shoe editor at Glamour, who had successfully run the advertising for Genesco's I. Miller shoe stores. After reluctantly deciding to accept the job, Stutz swept...
