"History Development and Growth
In 1914, Edwin Booz developed a conception. He assumed that in order for the corporations to be more profitable they might call on an expert from outside their company for professional, independent recommendations. By developing this concept, he formed a novel line of work, which is known as management consulting. By the year 1914, Edwin Booz graduated from Northwestern University. He then goes into business all by himself, executing research and numerical evaluations for corporations. In the year 1915, Ed Booz coordinates a corporation, Business Research & Development Company that dealt with investigating market environments in diverse fields and corporations. In 1919, another milestone was achieved when Ed Booz inaugurated Edwin G. Booz, Business Engineering Service. Its very first client was The State Bank & Trust of Evanston, IL. In 1924 the name of the company changed to Edwin Booz Surveys. In 1935 another significant step was taken when Carl Hamilton joined the firm and a year later, in 1936, the firm becomes new partnership Booz, Allen, & Hamilton. Clients at that time included US Gypsum and Container Corp. of America. They also worked for American Red Cross that led to more institutional labor (Booz Allen Hamilton, 2003)."

"Throughout history, the basic moral perspective has been that excessive use of alcohol is a willful act that leads to intoxication and other sinful behaviors. The Temperance Movement viewed drunkenness as a serious problem and most of the public continues to do so today. However, where today, we see alcoholism as a symptom of larger societal and psychological problems, temperance leaders saw alcohol itself as the cause of the problem and advocated control and eventually prohibition of its availability ...

Abstract
This paper titled "A New Kind of Blues..." is a creative short story written in the first person perspective. The paper tells the story of a friend's relationship with alcohol, and how the drinking affected his life and death.

From the Paper
"I knew Matt since we were both in kindergarten. We lived close by to one another. The condo development my mom and I lived in was near his house. So we'd ride our bikes to school. Matt was always the faster one, on his shiny silver dirt bike. He was the fastest on the school playground, ahead of everyone whenever we played soccer. When he kicked a kickball, it would make an arc in the sky and sail above, more like a meteor than something in a child's game.
I liked to go home with Matt after school and sit at his kitchen counter and talk to his mother. After swimming in his pool (it was heated well into October) or playing on his wooden swing set that was made of unfinished wood (not plastic like mine) Matt, his mom, and I would play Candy Land, or as both of us got older, Life, Risk, Clue, and Scrabble. Matt's mother didn't work like my mom. My mom would come home tired, with swollen feet from stocking shelves in Macy's all day and say, "why did you forget to put the pot roast in the crock pot like I told you to, it's Kraft macaroni and cheese again!"
