 English | 2022 | ISBN: 0367517477 | 411 pages | True PDF | 74.23 MB Keyboard Skills for the Practical Musician provides undergraduate music majors in class piano courses with the techniques and fundamentals they need to flourish into independent, versatile musicians who play with confidence and sensitivity. Organized by skill (rather than level), the topics sequenced in this textbook offer endless flexibility for instructors while guiding students in a step-by-step approach through the development of essential keyboard skills ? such as reading, harmonization, improvisation, and accompaniment ? supporting concepts learned in music theory, ear training, private lessons, methods classes, and ensemble courses. One can draw from many sections of the book in any given class or semester, covering a wide range of piano skills that foster abilities frequently used in a myriad of musical professions.  English | 2021 | ISBN: 1912676923 , 978-1912676934 | 393 pages | True PDF EPUB | 45.5 MB This book describes the rise and decline of Bournemouth's Jewish hotels and guest houses, the growth of Bournemouth as a premier resort and the evolution of its Jewish community. There are neat comparisons with the Catskills and the Borscht belt which had a similar rise and fall as a Jewish resort centre. Commencing with the appearance of the first small Jewish boarding houses in the late 19th century, it charts the emergence of ever-more luxurious hotels during the inter-war years. Fox captures the glamour of the 'Big Eight' hotels and the more intimate smaller establishments in their heyday following WWII. She explores the decline Bournemouth's Jewish holiday trade and examines different aspects of hotel and guest house life - food, religious activities and entertainment. She concludes with an analysis of the historical significance and legacies of the kosher establishments, as British Jews balanced the goal of assimilation with the desire for a world of their own. The focus is on those who ran, staffed and stayed in the kosher establishments, shedding light on the dynamics of the mainly family-run businesses. The text is replete with humorous and poignant memories and stories.
 English | 2021 | ISBN: 1119790875 | 222 pages | True PDF EPUB | 9.27 MB It's time the business world got the actionable, impactful, no-cost strategies needed to increase diversity and inclusion in the workplace  English | 2019 | ISBN: 9781643277790 | 137 pages | True (PDF,EPUB,MOB) | 29.71 MB The goal of this book is to introduce readers to a new philosophy of teaching and learning physics: Investigative Science Learning Environment, or ISLE (pronounced the same way as a small island). ISLE is an example of an intentional approach to curriculum design and learning activities. Intentionality means that the process through which the learning occurs is as crucial for learning as the final outcome or learned content. In ISLE, the learning process mirrors the practice of physics. This mirroring involves the process of the development of new ideas that are based on systematic patterns of experimentation and reasoning similar to that of physicists, and the collaborative nature of science and its continuous opportunities to improve one's work.  English | 2020 | ISBN: 1597183067 | 446 pages | True EPUB | 15.06 MB Recent decades have witnessed explosive growth in new and powerful tools for time-series analysis. These innovations have overturned older approaches to forecasting, macroeconomic policy analysis, the study of productivity and long-run economic growth, and the trading of financial assets. Familiarity with these new tools on time series is an essential skill for statisticians, econometricians, and applied researchers.  English | 2019 | ISBN: 9781643277554 | 107 pages | True (PDF,EPUB,MOB) | 23.45 MB All living matter is comprised of cells, which are small compartments isolated from the environment by a cell membrane and filled with concentrated solutions of various organic and inorganic compounds. Some organisms are single-cell, where all life functions are performed by that cell. Others have groups of cells, or organs, specializing in one particular function. The survival of the entire organism depends on all of its cells and organs fulfilling their roles.  English | 2019 | ISBN: 9781643274096 | 117 pages | True (PDF,EPUB,MOB) | 21.25 MB The aim of this book is to investigate the basic physical phenomena occurring in cells. These physical transport processes facilitate chemical reactions in the cell and that, in turn, leads to the biological functions necessary for the cell to satisfy its role in the mother organism. Ultimately, the goal of every cell is to stay alive and to fulfil its function as a part of a larger organ or organism. This first volume is an inventory of physical transport processes occurring in cells, while the second volume will take a closer look at how complex biological and physiological cell phenomena result from these very basic physical processes.  English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030862437 | 198 pages | True PDF EPUB | 17.53 MB This book is a comprehensive guide to Targeted Drug Delivery (TDD), also known as Intrathecal Drug Delivery (IDD), and offers an overview to this unique form of treatment. The medication is delivered by intrathecal pumps and is less common than some other techniques for interventional pain management, but is essential in conditions such as refractory pain, cancer pain, multifocal pain, severe spasticity, and in patients who are not candidates for surgical correction of their underlying condition.
 English | 2021 | ISBN: 9781789248234 | 214 pages | True PDF | 2.22 MB Because of the long-standing Canada-U.S. lumber trade dispute and the current pressure on the world's forests as a renewable energy source, much attention has been directed toward the modelling of international trade in wood products. Two types of trade models are described in this book: one is rooted in economic theory and mathematical programming, and the other consists of two econometric/statistical models--a gravity model rooted in theory and an approach known as GVAR that relies on time series analyses. The purpose of the book is to provide the background theory behind models and facilitate readers in easily constructing their own models to analyse policy questions that they wish to address, whether in forestry or some other sector. Examples in the book are meant to illustrate how models can be used to say something about a variety of issues, including identification of the gains and losses to various players in the North American softwood lumber business, and the potential for redirecting sales of lumber to countries outside the United States. The discussion is expanded to include other products besides lumber, and used to examine, for example, the effects of log export restrictions by one nation on all other forestry jurisdictions, the impacts of climate policies as they relate to the global forest sector, and the impact of oil prices on forest product markets throughout the world. This book will appeal to practising economists and researchers who wish to examine various policies that affect international trade, whether their interest is local or international in scope. Because the book provides the theoretical bases underlying various models, students and practitioners will find this a valuable reference book or supplementary textbook. |
