 The Town of Vichy and the Politics of Identity: Stigma, Victimhood and Decline by Kirrily Freeman English | PDF | 2022 | 149 Pages | ISBN : 303093196X | 4 MB "In a cautionary tale of the challenges facing a company town trying to control its 'brand,' Kirrily Freeman explores the complicated roots of the town of Vichy's sense of identity. While 'Vichy' is now synonymous with the collaborationist regime of Marshal Pétain, the roots of this town's sense of identity, and of aggrievement, victimhood and stigmatization lie farther in its past, and shape it today."
 The Ten Commandments of Risk Leadership: A Behavioral Guide on Strategic Risk Management by Annette Hofmann English | EPUB | 2022 | 185 Pages | ISBN : 3030887960 | 3.3 MB We as humans are prone to a variety of wired-in cognitive mistakes in the way we interpret and react to risk-related information. This is highly consequential since the cognitive biases managers are exposed to in their day-to-day business erode the objectivity of their risk-related decisions, which ultimately hurts the financial well-being of their firms. This book seeks to develop risk literacy as a leadership skill. It helps managers develop the skills to improve managerial decision-making in regards to managing risk.  The Science and Technology of 3D Printing by Tuhin Mukherjee English | PDF | 2021 | 217 Pages | ISBN : N/a | 38.1 MB Additive manufacturing, commonly known as three-dimensional printing (3D printing), is becoming an increasingly popular method for making components that are difficult to fabricate using traditional manufacturing processes.  The Responsibility to Protect Twenty Years On: Rhetoric and Implementation by Pinar Gözen Ercan English | EPUB | 2022 | 313 Pages | ISBN : 3030907309 | 0.4 MB This book focuses on measures pertaining to the three-pillar implementation strategy of R2P and examines how and to what extent the three pillars have been practised. Rich in its geographical scope, this edited book provides a critical analysis of R2P practice over the last two decades by focusing on representative cases from different regions. Analysing not only recent and/or underexplored cases but also widely studied cases from a fresh and alternative perspective, it sheds light on the depth and scope of the norm as well as the variety of actors involved and how they impact R2P practice. Diverging from most accounts, this edited book does not approach the cases as a 'success' or 'failure' of R2P.
 The Relational View of Economics: A New Research Agenda for the Study of Relational Transactions by Lucio Biggiero English | EPUB | 2022 | 328 Pages | ISBN : 3030865258 | 9 MB This book contributes to the development of a relational view of economics. Bringing together experts from various disciplines, it offers an interdisciplinary perspective on the study of relational transactions. In contrast to discrete market transactions as a traditional subject of economic discourse, the book analyses the role of relational transactions in the study of economic phenomena.
 The Regularized Fast Hartley Transform: Low-Complexity Parallel Computation of the FHT in One and Multiple Dimensions by Keith John Jones English | EPUB | 2022 | 325 Pages | ISBN : 3030682447 | 22.2 MB This book describes how a key signal/image processing algorithm - that of the fast Hartley transform (FHT) or, via a simple conversion routine between their outputs, of the real‑data version of the ubiquitous fast Fourier transform (FFT) - might best be formulated to facilitate computationally-efficient solutions.
 The Politics of Educational Decentralisation in Indonesia :A Quest for Legitimacy by Irsyad Zamjani English | PDF | 2022 | 312 Pages | ISBN : 9811669007 | 4.3 MB "The Politics of Educational Decentralisation in Indonesia: A Quest for Legitimacy is a well written, analytically sharp, and compelling study of educational decentralisation in Indonesia. Irsyad Zamjani, provides fresh insights into this important topic. The author treats educational reform as a window into much deeper questions about power, the government's responsibility to its citizens, and social change in Indonesia. His findings should interest academics as well as practitioners with an interest in educational reform." -Professor Christopher Bjork, Vassar College, New York  The Pleasures of Probability by Richard Isaac English | PDF | 1995 | 249 Pages | ISBN : 038794415X | 22.5 MB The ideas of probability are all around us. Lotteries, casino gambling, the al most non-stop polling which seems to mold public policy more and more these are a few of the areas where principles of probability impinge in a direct way on the lives and fortunes of the general public. At a more re moved level there is modern science which uses probability and its offshoots like statistics and the theory of random processes to build mathematical descriptions of the real world. In fact, twentieth-century physics, in embrac ing quantum mechanics, has a world view that is at its core probabilistic in nature, contrary to the deterministic one of classical physics.  The Plaston Concept: Plastic Deformation in Structural Materials by Isao Tanaka English | PDF,EPUB | 2022 | 278 Pages | ISBN : 981167714X | 106.8 MB This book presents the novel concept of plaston, which accounts for the high ductility or large plastic deformation of emerging high-performance structural materials, including bulk nanostructured metals, hetero-nanostructured materials, metallic glasses, intermetallics, and ceramics.
 The Physics of Semiconductors: An Introduction Including Nanophysics and Applications by Marius Grundmann English | PDF | 2016 | 998 Pages | ISBN : 3319238795 | 49 MB The 3rd edition of this successful textbook contains ample material for a comprehensive upper-level undergraduate or beginning graduate course, guiding readers to the point where they can choose a special topic and begin supervised research. The textbook provides a balance between essential aspects of solid-state and semiconductor physics, on the one hand, and the principles of various semiconductor devices and their applications in electronic and photonic devices, on the other. |
