Charles B. Craver, "Skills & Values: Legal Negotiating, Fourth Edition Ed 4" English | ISBN: 1531017819 | 2020 | 268 pages | AZW3 | 899 KB This book explores one of the most basic skills employed by lawyers on a regular basis: negotiation. They negotiate with their colleagues, clients, and on behalf of clients with other parties. It is a book that can be used as the primary text in a negotiations class or as one of several books. It explores the six distinct stages of bargaining interactions and various negotiating tactics attorneys might use. It covers various psychological factors likely to influence bargaining interactions, plus the possible impact of ethnicity and gender on such endeavors. It has separate chapters covering plea bargaining, transnational interactions, human rights negotiations, and multi-party dealings. It also covers important ethical issues negotiators are likely to encounter. Negotiating exercises are included at the end of chapters to demonstrate the specific areas covered in those chapters.
English | 2021 | ISBN: 0367201437 | 245 pages | True PDF | 9.95 MB Signal Detection for Medical Scientists: Likelihood Ratio Based Test-Based Methodology presents the data mining techniques with focus on likelihood ratio test (LRT) based methods for signal detection. It emphasizes computational aspect of LRT methodology and is pertinent for first-time researchers and graduate students venturing into this interesting field. The book is written as a reference book for professionals in pharmaceutical industry, manufactures of medical devices, and regulatory agencies. The book deals with the signal detection in drug/device evaluation, which is important in the post-market evaluation of medical products, and in the pre-market signal detection during clinical trials for monitoring procedures. Nicolas A Pereyra, "Set Theory for Physicists " English | ISBN: 1643276476 | 2019 | 44 pages | PDF | 2 MB This book gives a rigorous, physics focused, introduction to set theory that is geared towards natural science majors. Searching for 2D Superconductivity in La2-xSrxCuO4 Single Crystals by Itzik Kapon English | PDF | 2019 | 63 Pages | ISBN : 3030230600 | 3.9 MB A new experimental method - the "Stiffnessometer", is developed to measure elementary properties of a superconductor, including the superconducting stiffness and the critical current. This technique has many advantages over existing methods, such as: the ability to measure these properties while minimally disturbing the system; the ability to measure large penetration depths (comparable to sample size), as necessary when approaching the critical temperature; and the ability to measure critical currents without attaching contacts and heating the sample. Patrick Oswald, "Rheophysics: The Deformation and Flow of Matter" English | ISBN: 0521883628 | 2009 | 640 pages | PDF | 98 MB Why is it necessary to strike while the iron is hot? What makes a good liquid crystal display? Why is rubber so elastic? These questions can be answered through rheophysics, using the mechanics of continuous media at the macroscopic scale, and statistical mechanics and the physics of defects at the microscopic level. This book addresses problems involving the flow of matter, covering the main aspects of the mechanical response of fluids and solids to applied stress or strain. It includes the hydrodynamics of ordinary liquids, the elasticity and plasticity of solids, and the rheology of complex fluids such as suspensions, polymers and liquid crystals. Dislocations are described thoroughly, and special attention is given to instabilities. Concepts and physical properties are illustrated by numerous experiments, historical anecdotes, and applications to aeronautics, metallurgy, and geophysics, making this a valuable reference for researchers and graduate students in physics, engineering, and materials science. Chris W. Surprenant, "Rethinking Punishment in the Era of Mass Incarceration " English | ISBN: 1138047791 | 2017 | 344 pages | PDF | 2 MB One of the most important problems faced by the United States is addressing its broken criminal justice system. This collection of essays offers a thorough examination of incarceration as a form of punishment. In addition to focusing on the philosophical aspects related to punishment, the volume's diverse group of contributors provides additional background in criminology, economics, law, and sociology to help contextualize the philosophical issues. The first group of essays addresses whether or not our current institutions connected with punishment and incarceration are justified in a liberal society. The next set of chapters explores the negative effects of incarceration as a form of punishment, including its impact on children and families. The volume then describes how we arrived at our current situation in the United States, focusing on questions related to how we view prisons and prisoners, policing for profit, and the motivations of prosecutors in trying to secure convictions. Finally, Rethinking Punishment in the Era of Mass Incarceration examines specific policy alternatives that might offer solutions to our current approach to punishment and incarceration. Shashi Sinha, "Repair and Maintenance of Medical Devices: Basic Clinical Equipment" English | 2019 | ISBN: 1693726408 | 244 pages | MOBI | 11.7 MB The healthcare professionals are largely dependent on Medical Equipment for Diagnosing as well as treatment of an illness. After the treatment the equipment are also used for rehabilitation of the patient. There has been a number of developments related to Medical Devices. The Medical Devices Rules 2017 is in place and all the Medical Equipment will be regulated by Ministry of Health. The Patient Safety framework has been notified and it will now be mandatory to get the calibration and maintenance of the medical devices done as per requirement and maintain the records. It will also be mandatory to get the devices repaired by professionals who have acquired the skills as per the National Operating Standards (NOS) of Health Sector Skill council. Also in place is Materiovigilance Program of India which requires adverse event reporting of Medical Devices to be reported on a voluntary basis which will be made mandatory in due course of time. It was observed that many equipment in hospitals and health centres are either unused or there is no maintenance resulting wastage of resources. To address this, Ministry of Health has issued Comprehensive guidelines along with RFP on Biomedical Equipment Management and Maintenance Program (BMMP) in the month of February 2015. Subsequent to inventory mapping, RFP/tenders are to be rolled out to award maintenance contract. Support in being provided to state governments under NHM. The program aims to ensure maintenance of medical devices in the public health facilities up-to the level of District Hospital, to enable delivery of good quality of diagnosis and therapeutic care. This book is meant to help young engineers who wish to employed or are working as Medical Equipment Technician to calibrate, repair and do the preventive maintenance support to the hospital and to the equipment they are working. The book is divided into four Modules as Module-1-Basics of Healthcare and Medical Devices; MODULE-2-Installation and Maintenance of Medical Devices ; MODULE-3- Calibration, Fault Finding & Repairs of common medical equipment.; Module-4- Training, Assessment, Documentation and Database ManagementThe book covers the requirement for National Operating Standards of Health Sector Skill Council.
