Download or read book Homeopathy Healing and You written by Vinton McCabe and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 1999-03-15 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homeopathy: "If you work with an illness instead of wrestling against it, it can guide you through the expression of your symptoms to a life that is truly healthy in body, mind, and spirit." Healing: "To believe in healing is to believe that change can come about in your life like spontaneous combustion, that you can catch health just as you can disease." And You: "We have an invisible nature that defies chemical compositions and that allows us understanding of more than just physical creation." There is a hidden wisdom in our bodies and in our illnesses. If we can begin to change our thinking and to live our lives homeopathically, we can find healing without taking any medicines, homeopathic or allopathic. Vinton McCabe, a preeminent voice in homeopathy, will show people how to start on the path to this healing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers in management, industrial engineering, operations, and computer science have intensely studied scheduling for more than 50 years, resulting in an astounding body of knowledge in this field. Handbook of Scheduling: Algorithms, Models, and Performance Analysis, the first handbook on scheduling, provides full coverage of the most recent and advanced topics on the subject. It assembles researchers from all relevant disciplines in order to facilitate cross-fertilization and create new scheduling insights. The book comprises six major parts, each of which breaks down into smaller chapters: · Part I introduces materials and notation, with tutorials on complexity theory and algorithms for the minimization of makespan, total completion time, dual objectives, maximum lateness, the number of late jobs, and total tardiness. · Part II is devoted to classical scheduling problems. · Part III explores scheduling models that originate in computer science, operations research, and management science. · Part IV examines scheduling problems that arise in real-time systems, focusing on meeting hard deadline constraints while maximizing machine utilization. · Part V discusses stochastic scheduling and queueing networks, highlighting jobs that are not deterministic. · Part VI covers applications, discussing scheduling problems in airline, process, and transportation industries, as well as in hospitals and educational institutions.

Download or read book The Cage of Days written by Michael G. Flaherty and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2022-02-22 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prisons operate according to the clockwork logic of our criminal justice system: we punish people by making them “serve” time. The Cage of Days combines the perspectives of K. C. Carceral, a formerly incarcerated convict criminologist, and Michael G. Flaherty, a sociologist who studies temporal experience. Drawing from Carceral’s field notes, his interviews with fellow inmates, and convict memoirs, this book reveals what time does to prisoners and what prisoners do to time. Carceral and Flaherty consider the connection between the subjective dimensions of time and the existential circumstances of imprisonment. Convicts find that their experience of time has become deeply distorted by the rhythm and routines of prison and by how authorities ensure that an inmate’s time is under their control. They become obsessed with the passage of time and preoccupied with regaining temporal autonomy, creating elaborate strategies for modifying their perception of time. To escape the feeling that their lives lack forward momentum, prisoners devise distinctive ways to mark the passage of time, but these tactics can backfire by intensifying their awareness of temporality. Providing rich and nuanced analysis grounded in the distinctive voices of diverse prisoners, The Cage of Days examines how prisons regulate time and how prisoners resist the temporal regime.

Download or read book Persian Historic Urban Landscapes written by Eisa Esfanjary and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-04 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Persian cities are part of a corridor of civilisation with settlements straddling thousands of years. Taking Maibud as a case study, Eisa Esfanjary traces the evolution of ancient settlements chronologically, thematically and methodologically. Maibud provides the basis from which a new interpretive approach is developed, being a city that has a history of several millennia yet has a scale that renders it manageable with archaeological remains that range across several phases of building development. An archetypal example of middle-sized Persian cities, it affords insights into the entire urban landscape and its spatial, functional and morphological iterations. Within this overall picture, a methodology is developed to explore various morphological elements of the city, the three key components of which are the town plan, the building type, and construction materials. The inter-relationships between these three components are explained in order to formulate an approach to support the management and conservation of the historic urban landscape. Combining a rigorous survey and observation of the standing structures with scarce archaeological and written sources, this book sheds light on Islamic urbanism in general and Islamic urbanism in Iran particularly."--Résumé de l'éditeur.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2000: This work concerns the personnel and career management of scientists employed in four research settings: universities, government laboratories, research institutes and industrial laboratories. Its purpose is to describe and explain processes and practices, giving equal prominence to men and women in science. It explores the contexts in which the people (the scientific human resource) who are responsible for creating scientific knowledge carry out their work and build their careers. It draws on an empirical study of career management among research scientists in the four types of research setting and additional interest stems from issues concerning employment of "professional" staff at a time when organizations are undergoing enormous change.

Download or read book Administration in India written by Ashish Kumar Srivastava and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-24 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the administration in India from independence to date. It examines the major transformation in the administrative service initiated by the ‘Minimum Government and Maximum Governance’ initiative of the Government of India in 2014. In spite of enormous diversity and population, India has made remarkable progress in various fields such as health, education, infrastructure, and technology. Structured in three parts, (1) social sector, (2) infrastructure and economy, and (3) e-governance and service delivery, the book examines challenges of governance and provides insight into different innovations undertaken to address these challenges. E-governance lies at the core of this transformation of accountability, transparency, and time-bound service delivery. Contributions in this book are written by experts working in the Indian Administrative Service (IAS), academia, and the private sector and cover a wide spectrum of administration from the point of view of different departments of government, as well as the experiences of the authors ranging from senior bureaucrats to mid-career officers and analyses of researchers on administration and its challenges. The initiatives covered in this book can serve as solutions to similar challenges faced by other developing countries in the world. The book will be of interest to researchers in the fields of administration and policy, civil service, public management, South Asian politics, and Development Studies.

Book excerpt: There ain't no pleasing some people. Take Barry for example, most of us would be content soaring through the cosmos in a spacecraft, but for our pasty-addicted, antihero white space-van pilot it's nothing more than mundane. Delivering medical supplies to faraway colonies his employment, is also his curse. He only dedicates effort to skiving and generally loathing his job; it is the English way. His obnoxious and selfish employers depress him, his family ignore him, his colleagues assist his irritation with merciless banter, and even the onboard computer drives him up the wall, across the ceiling and out through the sunroof. Little wonder then Barry yearns for change. He waits for something to slap in the chops and guide him to it, rather than motivate himself to act on the reverie. But when it transpires and adventure ensues, well, Barry still whinges like a stuck Pat Boone record; But it is a Tuesday, he's only supposed to go as far as Io.........

Download or read book The Unwritten Rules written by John Beeson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-09-02 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maximize your chances to get promoted to the executive level As predictable career paths have become extinct in most organizations, managers aspiring to the C-level job are left to their own devices to determine how to advance their careers. Even in companies committed to talent development, guidance to aspiring executives is often vague and contradictory. This happens, executive coach John Beeson argues, because executive promotions are made based on the decision makers' intuitive sense of whether or not a manager can succeed at higher levels within the organization. Beeson decodes these leadership criteria--the unwritten rules--that companies use to make decisions about who gets promoted and who doesn't, and identifies the six core "selection factors" that are imperative for success at the executive level Demonstrating strategic skills Building a strong management team Managing implementation Exhibiting the capacity for innovation and change Working across organizational boundaries Projecting executive presence Filled with stories of managers who successfully climbed up the executive ladder-and some who struggled-The Unwritten Rules is an invaluable resource for aspiring executives.
