Download or read book Cities Regions and Flows written by Peter V. Hall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cities, Regions and Flows presents a theoretical framework for understanding the changing relationship between places and physical movement, and thoughtfully prepared case studies from five continents on how cities relate to value chains, and how they ensure accessibility and urban liveability in an increasingly contested policy environment. Moreover, the book discusses how urban policies attempt to solve related conflicts in terms of infrastructure provision, land use, local labour markets and environmental sustainability. The two subsystems that are of major interest here - urban regions on the one hand, and logistics management and physical distribution on the other - develop in quite distinct, and often contradictory, ways. Whereas urban regions face disintegration due to the expansion of the built environment and the spatio-temporal fragmentation of life-worlds and regional systems, the logistics system itself demands integration in order to keep flows moving and to reduce costs. Physical flows, networks and chains thus have a fundamental impact on urban restructuring.

Download or read book New developments in ESP teaching and learning research written by Cédric Sarré and published by Research-publishing.net. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collective volume, we seek to bridge gaps between research and practice in the teaching and learning of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) with a set of strong research-based contributions drawing on a wide range of ESP contexts. It offers new theoretical and pedagogical insights for ESP practitioners and researchers alike, going beyond descriptions of ESP situations and programmes to bring in sound research design and data analysis which are firmly anchored in previous ESP research. The nine papers in this collection cover a variety of ESP domains, from medicine, technical science, and engineering to social sciences and the humanities, in order to encapsulate current trends and new developments in ESP teaching and learning research in Europe.

Download or read book Stendhal Or the Pursuit of Happiness written by Matthew Josephson and published by Jorge Pinto Books Inc.. This book was released on 2005-10 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On Stendhal: "The study of human nature, 'the observation of the human heart and its passions, ' was his constant preoccupation. But where could he study the passions better than in himself? Though he lived exuberantly, submitting himself to experience... he went on incessantly writing down everything that happened to him just as it happened. he even led to perform some remarkable experiments upon himself.He laid claim to having been a soldier, a man of fortune, a great lover, a society wit, a diplomat, a traveler, and even, sometimes, a revolutionary conspirator. "Fifty years after his death he becomes one of the demigods of the world's letters, taking his place in the ranks of the great social writers who appeared toward the end of the last century. his manner of life itself has fascinated whole regiments of literary scholars in France, Italy and Germany in the last forty years." -Matthew Josephson, From the Introduction (1946) "Like Josephson's Victor Hugo, it is the best and most comprehensive English study of its subject, a careful collection of material, skillfully assembled and organized...When Freud read Stendhal's memoirs of his childhood and adolescence he called them 'a manifestation of psychological genius.' Stendhal, he saw, had been a Freudian some 70 years before Freud himself."-TIME Magazine (1946)

Book excerpt: Vous êtes aimeriez recevoir des revenus passifs sous forme de dividendes en minimisant vos risques de ne pas recevoir d’argent ? Alors j’ai une solution pour vous : investir dans les holdings cotées en bourse. De quoi s’agit-il ? Les holdings sont des sociétés qui placent leurs capitaux dans un large portefeuille d’entreprises cotées sur les marchés financiers mais également non cotées en bourse (private equity). C’est très intéressant car les entreprises non cotées ne sont pas directement accessibles aux investisseurs particuliers. Grâce aux holdings cotées, vous diversifiez vos placements dans des actifs auxquels seuls les professionnels ont accès. Vous déléguez le travail d’analyse et de sélection des entreprises dans lesquelles investir à des experts ayant fait leurs preuves. Et vous n’avez rien à faire à part recevoir vos dividendes. C’est un investissement purement passif qui est parfaitement complémentaire à une stratégie d’investissement dans les ETF ! Je vous propose d’investir dans les holdings européennes cotées en bourse. L’intérêt de ces sociétés est qu’un grand nombre d’entre elles sont des holdings de riches familles (les Peugeot, par exemple, via PEUGEOT INVEST…). Certaines de ces grandes dynasties familiales ont en effet intégré leurs participations au sein d'une structure financière cotée sur les marchés financiers, les holdings, afin d’accélérer le développement et la diversification de leur patrimoine. Grâce à ces holdings cotées, vous investissez aux côtés des personnes les plus riches d’Europe. Acquérir un morceau du portefeuille d'actions détenu par ces familles fortunées est donc possible pour un coût dérisoire ! Dans ce livre, vous découvrirez : - les principales holdings cotées en Europe et leur historique de paiement des dividendes ; - l’investissement dans le private equity (entreprises non cotées en bourse) ; - les holdings cotés versant un dividende croissant et qui font partie des aristocrates du dividende en Europe ; - comment analyser les holdings cotées ; - et bien plus encore ! Cet ouvrage s’adresse à toutes les personnes désireuses d’obtenir un revenu passif via les dividendes. Que vous recherchiez la liberté financière ou de solides revenus complémentaires (pour votre retraite…), vous trouverez toutes les informations dont vous avez besoin pour investir avec succès dans les holdings européennes cotées. Alors qu’attendez-vous pour acheter ce livre ? * * * Ludovic MARIN est un investisseur, un entrepreneur et un philanthrope français. - LIEN VERS MES LIVRES (blog officiel) : https://ML-livres.blogspot.com - LIEN VERS MES FORMATIONS SUR UDEMY (page officielle) : https://www.udemy.com/user/ludovic-marin-3/

Download or read book Reproducing Gender written by Susan Gal and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2000-05-28 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The striking fact that abortion was among the first issues raised, after 1989, by almost all of the newly formed governments of East Central Europe points to the significance of gender and reproduction in the postsocialist transformations. The fourteen studies in this volume result from a comparative, collaborative research project on the complex relationship between ideas and practices of gender, and political economic change. The book presents detailed evidence about women's and men's new circumstances in eight of the former communist countries, exploring the intersection of politics and the life cycle, the differential effects of economic restructuring, and women's public and political participation. Individual contributions on the former German Democratic Republic, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia, Romania, and Bulgaria provide rich empirical data and interpretive insights on postsocialist transformation analyzed from a gendered perspective. Drawing on multiple methods and disciplines, these original papers advance scholarship in several fields, including anthropology, sociology, women's studies, law, comparative political science, and regional studies. The analyses make clear that practices of gender, and ideas about the differences between men and women, have been crucial in shaping the broad social changes that have followed the collapse of communism. In addition to the editors, the contributors are Eleonora Zieliãska, Eva Maleck-Lewy, Myra Marx Ferree, Sharon Wolchik, Irene Dölling, Daphne Hahn, Sylka Scholz, Mira Marody, Anna Giza-Poleszczuk, Katalin Kovács, Mónika Váradi, Julia Szalai, Adriana Baban, MaÏgorzata Fuszara, Laura Grunberg, Zorica Mrseviâ, Krassimira Daskalova, Joanna Goven, and Jasmina Lukiâ.

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Literary Romanticism written by Andrew Maunder and published by Facts on File. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the "Literary Movements" series, this title examines the people, events, and works that defined the literary Romantic era in Great Britain and Ireland from 1775 through the 1830s. An introductory essay summarizes the movement's origins and philosophy. This A-to-Z-format work provides brief biographies, plot summaries, and critical interpretations of both the popular, well-known Romantics and the many often-overlooked, lesser-known writers. Designed to "whet the reader's appetite" for further exploration of this fascinating period and to focus on how closely Romantic writers are connected to their contemporary world, the book offers signed essays on industrialism, the monarchy, the American and French Revolutions, childhood, slavery, and many other topics. Many articles offer suggestions for further reading. Comparing this title to Encyclopedia of the Romantic Era, 1760-1850, edited by C. J. Murray (CH, Jun'04, 41-5628), reveals that the newer volume includes more close analysis of individual works and features a larger number of lesser-known writers, particularly women. Rather than being a substitute, it is best used in conjunction with the Murray title. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates and above; general readers. General Readers; Lower-division Undergraduates; Upper-division Undergraduates; Graduate Students; Researchers/Faculty; Professionals/Practitioners. Reviewed by R. B. Meeker.

Download or read book Urban Grimshaw and The Shed Crew written by Bernard Hare and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You're twelve years old. Your mother's a junkie and your father might as well be dead. You can't read or write, and you don't go to school. An average day means sitting round a bonfire with your mates smoking drugs, or stealing cars. Welcome to Urban's world. Bernard Hare was on society's margins, living on one of Leeds' roughest estates and with a liking for drink and drugs. So he knew what life in the underclass was like in '90s Britain. But even he was shocked when he met Urban, an illiterate, glue-sniffing twelve-year-old. And through Urban he got to know the Shed Crew - an anarchic gang of kids between the ages of ten and fourteen; joy-riding, thieving runaways, who were no strangers to drugs or sex. Nearly all had been in care, but few adults really cared. Bernard decided to do what he could. He didn't know what he was letting himself in for.

Download or read book Essentials of Yoruba Grammar written by Oladele Awobuluyi and published by University Press Plc Nigeria. This book was released on 1978 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In important respects, this book represents an independent approach to Yoruba grammar. It attempts to present the Yoruba language as it really is, rather than as seen largely from the perspective of other languages. The grammatical structure of the language is thus presented in a new way. The major parts of speech of the language are, for the first time, established uniformly on the criteria of function alone. A chapter is devoted to a systematic and novel treatment of each such part of speech, related both to the wide array of sentence types, and to its sounds and the way they are combined in words.
