Download or read book Shi ism written by Hamid Dabashi and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-07 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a Western world anxious to understand Islam and, in particular, ShiÕism, this book arrives with urgently needed information and critical analysis. Hamid Dabashi exposes the soul of ShiÕism as a religion of protestÑsuccessful only when in a warring position, and losing its legitimacy when in power. Dabashi makes his case through a detailed discussion of the ShiÕi doctrinal foundations, a panoramic view of its historical unfolding, a varied investigation into its visual and performing arts, and finally a focus on the three major sites of its contemporary contestations: Iran, Iraq, and Lebanon. In these states, ShiÕism seems to have ceased to be a sect within the larger context of Islam and has instead emerged to claim global political attention. Here we see ShiÕism in its combative modeÑreminiscent of its traumatic birth in early Islamic history. Hezbollah in Lebanon claims ShiÕism, as do the militant insurgents in Iraq, the ruling Ayatollahs in Iran, and the masses of youthful demonstrators rebelling against their reign. All declare their active loyalties to a religion of protest that has defined them and their ancestry for almost fourteen hundred years. ShiÕsm: A Religion of Protest attends to the explosive conflicts in the Middle East with an abiding attention to historical facts, cultural forces, religious convictions, literary and artistic nuances, and metaphysical details. This timely book offers readers a bravely intelligent history of a world religion.
Download or read book The ISM method Version 3 written by Jan van Bon and published by Van Haren. This book was released on 2017-06-30 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a revolutionary approach on how to successfully implement IT service management (ITSM) in an easier, faster, cheaper, and especially more effective way. In the book, the lessons of 30 years are used to put an end to the chaos and complexity of ineffective ITSM projects. Based on simple paradigms, a single and compact solution is described for the integrated service management with People, Process and Product. This is not achieved by setting ITIL or ASL aside, but by rearranging the many valuable elements of these frameworks into a simple logical structure, and filling the gaps. Although the paradigms are explained extensively in the book, the solution is very practical and has been proven in recent years in dozens of projects with small and large organizations. This publication describes the implementation method, with a strong focus on quality assurance and cultural change, a comprehensive definition list, and an example of a compact process model.
Download or read book Data ism written by Steve Lohr and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2015-03-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By one estimate, 90 percent of all of the data in history was created in the last two years. In 2014, International Data Corporation calculated the data universe at 4.4 zettabytes, or 4.4 trillion gigabytes. That much information, in volume, could fill enough slender iPad Air tablets to create a stack two-thirds of the way to the moon. Now, that's Big Data. Coal, iron ore, and oil were the key productive assets that fueled the Industrial Revolution. The vital raw material of today's information economy is data. In Data-ism, New York Times reporter Steve Lohr explains how big-data technology is ushering in a revolution in proportions that promise to be the basis of the next wave of efficiency and innovation across the economy. But more is at work here than technology. Big data is also the vehicle for a point of view, or philosophy, about how decisions will be—and perhaps should be—made in the future. Lohr investigates the benefits of data while also examining its dark side. Data-ism is about this next phase, in which vast Internet-scale data sets are used for discovery and prediction in virtually every field. It shows how this new revolution will change decision making—by relying more on data and analysis, and less on intuition and experience—and transform the nature of leadership and management. Focusing on young entrepreneurs at the forefront of data science as well as on giant companies such as IBM that are making big bets on data science for the future of their businesses, Data-ism is a field guide to what is ahead, explaining how individuals and institutions will need to exploit, protect, and manage data to stay competitive in the coming years. With rich examples of how the rise of big data is affecting everyday life, Data-ism also raises provocative questions about policy and practice that have wide implications for everyone. The age of data-ism is here. But are we ready to handle its consequences, good and bad?

It is my sincere hope and prayer that your journey through this book will heal you and your loved ones, as it has done for me and my family. With God’s help, Christians and Non-Christians alike can all benefit from the experiences, tools, and methods in this book by improving themselves spiritually, and by improving the quality of their relationships with others

Download or read book The ISM method version 5 written by Wim Hoving and published by Van Haren. This book was released on 2024-01-31 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Customers expect increasingly valuable IT services, services that are flexible, reliable, secure, and efficient. Services that optimally support their users in their work. At the same time, IT organizations are struggling with rapidly changing applications and techniques, increasing compliance requirements, suppliers, and a shortage of employees. ITSM methods such as ITIL, DevOps, XLA, IT4IT, and SIAM are valuable and provide many insights and guidelines and are set up in practice, but due to their complexity and size, they are almost never successfully applied. The road to go is a result-oriented applicable method that is compact and complete, and maximally supports the entire IT organization in creating valuable IT services. A method that is both manageable and executable. ISM Version 5 (Integrated Service Management) uses just seven processes to organize the supply chain from customer to suppliers, and from strategy to operations. It supports the professionals with compact, recognizable, and applicable frameworks and supports the managers with result-oriented and clear control. The holistic design guarantees the coherence in the method across the entire service delivery chain. In ISM Version 5, the most important ITSM developments of recent years such as customer value, experience management, agile, and OBM are integrated into one single solution that is exceptionally applicable due to its compactness, and extremely efficient due to its completeness. With ISM Version 5, every IT organization is offered a clear perspective that can be adopted at its own pace. This book is primarily aimed at all managers and professionals in the IT organization who want insight into the possibilities of result-oriented IT Service Management. In addition to the ISM foundation training, it also forms the basis for the ISM foundation exam. ISM, smart co-creation of customer value.
