Innovation at 3M Corporation Case Summary 3M was and still is a worldwide leader in innovation.

In Eric Schwitzgebel’s How to Tell if You’re a Jerk he explains that: “Jerks are people who culpably fail to appreciate the perspectives of the people around them‚ treating others as tools to be manipulated or fools to be dealt with‚ rather than as moral and epistemic peers.

The Truth and A Lengthy Excuse An essay on Eric Williams and Winthrop Jordan In Eric Williams’ essay‚ "Capitalism and Slavery"‚ the first thing he stresses is that racism came from slavery‚ not the other way around.

Fortunately‚ Eric Williams’ essay nearly tears itself apart on its own
