This book was released on 2010-04-30 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical strategies to propel your company to the top American business is entering unchartered territory. Recent trends suggest that we are moving out of a recession-fairly labeled The Great Recession-into a recovery phase characterized by high unemployment with growth. As such, the business road ahead will be challenging. Growth will be harder to achieve and business failure will be more prevalent. But the best of America's growth businesses will pass through this cycle to experience renewed and hopeful growth in contrast to the high failure rate of those who fail to grow. The numbers are proving this to be the extreme case-a higher upside with a greater failure rate. What are America's recession-proof, highest growth companies doing differently? What are the values, fundamentals, and actions that will make the difference between failure, or just surviving and thriving? The answer to these questions is, what Thomson calls, The 7 Essentials-value proposition, high growth market segment, marquee customers, big brother alliances, exponential returns, inside/outside leadership, and essential board experts. This book is the timely answer to the search for what it will take to propel a company's growth through these challenging times. It's for management teams of any business, independent of size or industry, which desires to identify a course of action to improve their opportunities to grow.

Download or read book An Introduction to Marriage and Family Therapy written by Joseph L. Wetchler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-27 with total page 635 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its second edition, this text introduces readers to the rich history and practice of Marriage and Family Therapy, with 32 professionals from across the US presenting their knowledge in their areas of expertise. This blend of approaches and styles gives this text a unique voice and makes it a comprehensive resource for graduate students taking their first course in Marriage and Family Therapy. The book is divided into three sections: Part 1 focuses on the components on which 21st century family therapy is based and summarizes the most recent changes made to not only therapeutic interventions, but to the very concept of “family.” Part 2 presents an overview of the 7 major theoretical models of the field: structural, strategic, Milan, social constructionist, experiential, transgenerational, and cognitive-behavioral family therapy. Each chapter in this section • Focuses on the founder of the theory, its theoretical tenants, and its key techniques • Shows how the model focuses on diversity • Presents the research that supports the approach Part 3 addresses specific treatment areas that are common to marriage and family therapists, such as sex therapy, pre-marital therapy, research, and ethics and legal issues. As an introduction to the field of Marriage and Family Therapy, this volume stands above the rest. Not only will readers gain an understanding of the rich history of the field and its techniques, but they will also see a complete picture of the context in which families are embedded, such as gender, culture, spirituality, and sexual orientation. This knowledge is the key to understanding what differentiates Marriage and Family Therapy from individual psychotherapy. Glossaries, case studies, tables, figures, and appendices appear generously throughout the text to present this information and give students a thorough overview to prepare them for their professional lives.

Download or read book Essentials Of Biochemistry written by Dr. Aarti Trehan and published by AG PUBLISHING HOUSE (AGPH Books). This book was released on 2023-01-20 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because it integrates ideas from both chemistry and biology, biochemistry is a very important discipline. So, it employs and integrates a wide range of strategies and procedures that bridge those two domains. Biology, on the other side, is a study of increasing levels of organization, from molecules as well as atoms through cells, tissues, and organs. Like Chemistry, Biology is a fundamental scientific discipline since it elucidates how living things function by dissecting their constituent parts. However, biology alone cannot provide a complete explanation for the many processes occurring in every living being. Carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, phosphorus, and sulphur are the elements that make up 98% of all biological stuff on Earth. There's little doubt that chemistry will aid in our quest to learn about the peculiarities of the elements themselves, but what happens when these atoms combine or break apart? It is in the situation that the atoms remain connected with each other that different kinds of biological molecules emerge (proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids). Given that the aforementioned atoms interact with one another, it stands to reason that the biological molecules they produce do so as well. Numerous processes involving interactions between biological molecules take place in a live body. In addition, a vast range of chemical events occur inside a cell to maintain a living creature. Thus, it is safe to say that biochemistry constitutes the basis of all life on Earth.

Download or read book Essential Speech and Language Technology for Dutch written by Peter Spyns and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides an overview of more than a decade of joint R&D efforts in the Low Countries on HLT for Dutch. It not only presents the state of the art of HLT for Dutch in the areas covered, but, even more importantly, a description of the resources (data and tools) for Dutch that have been created are now available for both academia and industry worldwide. The contributions cover many areas of human language technology (for Dutch): corpus collection (including IPR issues) and building (in particular one corpus aiming at a collection of 500M word tokens), lexicology, anaphora resolution, a semantic network, parsing technology, speech recognition, machine translation, text (summaries) generation, web mining, information extraction, and text to speech to name the most important ones. The book also shows how a medium-sized language community (spanning two territories) can create a digital language infrastructure (resources, tools, etc.) as a basis for subsequent R&D. At the same time, it bundles contributions of almost all the HLT research groups in Flanders and the Netherlands, hence offers a view of their recent research activities. Targeted readers are mainly researchers in human language technology, in particular those focusing on Dutch. It concerns researchers active in larger networks such as the CLARIN, META-NET, FLaReNet and participating in conferences such as ACL, EACL, NAACL, COLING, RANLP, CICling, LREC, CLIN and DIR ( both in the Low Countries), InterSpeech, ASRU, ICASSP, ISCA, EUSIPCO, CLEF, TREC, etc. In addition, some chapters are interesting for human language technology policy makers and even for science policy makers in general.
