Book excerpt: What if all the best Tour stages happened in one race? In Etape, critically acclaimed author Richard Moore weaves first-person interviews with cycling's great riders to assemble a "dream team" of the best Tour de France stages in modern history. Featuring exclusive interviews with the Tour's legends and scoundrels about their best-ever day on the bike (and their most heartbreaking defeats), Moore unravels lingering mysteries and recounts strange tales from 20 great stages of the Tour: LeMond's impossible return from near-death, Schleck's primal scream atop the Galibier, Merckx's self-described toughest Tour, Cav's mind-bending victory in Aubenas, Hinault's hellish battle with Fignon. Etape assembles the greatest days of modern Tour history into a Tour de France of incredible victory, glorious failure, shocking revelation, and beautiful memories. In the words of those who were there, Etape recreates each day vividly and reveals the beauty and the madness of cycling's greatest race.

This book was released on 2023-10-03 with total page 1425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of the European Iron Age presents a broad overview of current understanding of the archaeology of Europe from 1000 BC through to the early historic periods, exploiting the large quantities of new evidence yielded by the upsurge in archaeological research and excavation on this period over the last thirty years. Three introductory chapters situate the reader in the times and the environments of Iron Age Europe. Fourteen regional chapters provide accessible syntheses of developments in different parts of the continent, from Ireland and Spain in the west to the borders with Asia in the east, from Scandinavia in the north to the Mediterranean shores in the south. Twenty-six thematic chapters examine different aspects of Iron Age archaeology in greater depth, from lifeways, economy, and complexity to identity, ritual, and expression. Among the many topics explored are agricultural systems, settlements, landscape monuments, iron smelting and forging, production of textiles, politics, demography, gender, migration, funerary practices, social and religious rituals, coinage and literacy, and art and design.

Book excerpt: This is a collection of the selected papers of John La Patourel, considered by him to be the most representative of his body of work on the Norman and Plantaganet feudal empires.

Adopting a comparative framework and looking at topics such as the Channel Islands in the early middle ages, Normandy and England from 1066-1144, the Angevin Empire, the Hundred Years War and the Treaty of Brétigny, Professor La Patourel's work yields new insights and understandings in the history of 14th-century Europe.
Download or read book Becoming What Is Changing Exposition written by Veerle De Bock and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-05-10 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Becoming What is Changing You Are the Perfect Tool to Achieve This Universal Principles for Transforming Self, Systems & Organizations Our world is changing. Our technology is changing the way we live and communicate. Modern science opens gateways to new world views. The rate at which we are exposed to new information, new paradigms and new ideas is accelerating every day. Amidst all this overwhelming change, there is an inherent intelligence in the Universe that continuously self-organizes. We have the choice to align with this intelligence or continue to operate within old structures - in government, business, education, healthcare and even in our personal lives. We often cling to hierarchical models, which no longer work for us. Those at the top of the ladder are fearful of what might happen if they relinquish control. Those at the bottom, surrender responsibility to those above. Many of us easily get stuck in a pattern of blaming 'the system' for everything that goes wrong. But the truth is - we are ALL the system. Whether you are a seasoned CEO or an entry-level employee, YOU have the ability - and the responsibility - to engage with 'the system' as a 'living being' composed of all those involved. In Becoming What is Changing: Universal Principles for Transforming Self, Systems & Organizations (Volume 1: Exposition), author Veerle de Bock integrates more than two decades of experience within the healthcare industry, along with years of work as a teacher, supervisor and process facilitator, to bring you a candid and refreshing look at how we can reinvent the way we operate within our organizations, and allow our systems to become 'living beings' with a capacity for self-organization. In Becoming What is Changing (volume 1), you'll find dozens of valuable anecdotal examples of real-life situations combined with a wealth of practical concepts, skills and tools you can apply in any scenario, such as: Your full potential - Fresh perspectives on discovering who you really are, and how to bring your whole self into your organization. Dynamic facilitation - A new way of meeting and listening that can help your team find solutions to problems you thought were impossible to overcome. Life pulse - Understanding the natural life-cycle of organizations and ideas, so you can identify the right time to reflect and the right time to ACT. Witness/Ask/Experience - A reflective tool to help you and your organization discover where you are 'stuck' so you can move forward. 100% Responsibility - Learning how to take responsibility for what is happening in the moment, including the responsibility for being open and understood. Plus many others. A Call to Action to Idealists, Change-Makers and Social Reformers! If we simply continue to complain about 'the old system', we are only colluding with it. But when we are ready to let go of blame and judgement - and take full responsibility for whatever happens to us and around us - we can attune with the change that is already happening in the Universe, and we can achieve truly great things in our organizations, our lives and the world at large. So, are you ready? Then Becoming What is Changing is THE book for you.

Download or read book Ma trise des co ts en restauration collective written by POINTET Isabelle and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maîtriser les coûts est essentiel pour assurer la rentabilité et la pérennité d'une entreprise. S'il est un domaine où la maîtrise des coûts n'est pas chose aisée, c'est bien celui de la restauration collective : le prix des produits est un élément décisif, les budgets dévolus à la nourriture sont strictement encadrés, et ce secteur en forte croissance est en proie à d'importantes pressions avec notamment la prise de conscience des problématiques de l'alimentation. L’enjeu est donc double : les entreprises de restauration collective doivent s'adapter aux spécificités de leurs clients, tout en respectant les nouvelles recommandations en termes de nutrition. La maîtrise des coûts suppose alors une gestion quotidienne rigoureuse et le recours à des outils mathématiques afin de prévoir, d'anticiper et de comparer, amenant ainsi les entreprises à édicter des règles très strictes en la matière. Cet ouvrage pratique et didactique a pour principal objectif d'aider les professionnels de la restauration collective à mettre en place des outils simples et efficaces de gestion des coûts. Sont étudiées et passées en revue de façon très précise et concise les différentes étapes à maîtriser impérativement telles que les notions de base, la négociation des contrats, l'élaboration des menus, la prise de commandes, l'approvisionnement, la production, la distribution et les services supports. Enfin, une analyse critique des méthodes abordées dans l'ouvrage est proposée. Maîtrise des coûts en restauration collective s’adresse non seulement à toutes les entreprises, quelle que soit leur taille, proposant un service de restauration collective, mais également à tous les professionnels concernés par cette thématique tels que les industries agroalimentaires et les collectivités locales.
Download or read book Building Capacity Using TEFL and African Languages as Development oriented Literacy Tools written by Ngessimo M. Mutaka and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2008 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Building Capacity promotes the vision that the teaching of African languages can best achieve its aim of boosting the economic and cultural development of the Africans if they are made to work in synergy with a revamping of the course contents of international languages that will be taught within the frame of a development-oriented literacy curriculum. Great emphasis is put on the oral skills in the use of African languages as they are to serve as a link between the community and the school for the ultimate revitalization of the positive aspects of African cultures in a world beset by globalization. The book is supplemented with a sample of texts in the appendix that are meant to be a bridge between formal texts taught in classrooms and literacy texts that can raise the genuine interests of the local populations in that they address their immediate needs. Among the possible topics language teachers are encouraged to explore in their classes are those concerning economic development, but also such issues as health, education, the environment, food security, and conflict resolution. ""In the face of the growing interest in the use of African Languages by Africans as symbols of personal and cultural identity and as means of empowering the rural communities in the entreprise of national development,the need for a methodologically appropriate manual to guide the teaching and learning of African languages becomes urgent.This book is a timely response, predicated on a policy of the symbiotic use of African languages along with partner (foreign-official) languages, to attain a balanced level of economic and socio-cultural development.It is based on a compendium of well- thought-out principles geared towards a rapid acquisition of written and oral language skills that are congruent with and reflect the socio-cultural and economic concerns of the linguistic community."" Beban Sammy Chumbow, Professor of Linguistics, University of Yaounde I ""Among the numerous proposals in this book is the necessity for Africans, and I would add, for the communities of Asia and Latin America, to re-think the contents of their language courses and assign them an objective which aims at the integral development of their communities. It is indeed imperative that these courses reflect clear objectives of seeking social, cultural, and economic developments that harmonize with African, Asian, and Latin American values that are deep rooted in their respective various cultures."" Jean-Pierre Angenot Professor of Linguistics, Federal University of Rond?nia, Porto Velho, Brazil."
