Protocols-Based Sliding Mode Control: 1-D and 2-D System Cases by Jun Song English | 2023 | ISBN: 1032313870 | 299 Pages | PDF (True) | 20 MB  Paul McHugh, "Prostitution and Victorian Social Reform" English | ISBN: 0415752582 | 2014 | 312 pages | EPUB | 5 MB In the mid-nineteenth century many parts of England and Wales were still subjected to a system of regulated prostitution which, by identifying and detaining for treatment infected prostitutes, aimed to protect members of the armed forces (94 per cent of whom were forbidden to marry) from venereal diseases.  John Goodpasture, "Project Management the Agile Way, Second Edition: Making it Work in the Enterprise" English | 2015 | pages: 393 | ISBN: 1604271159 | PDF | 19,9 mb Widely acclaimed as one of the top agile books in its first edition, Project Management the Agile Way has now been updated and redesigned by popular demand. This second edition is in a modular format to facilitate training and advanced course instruction, and provides new coverage of agile, such as hybrid agile methods, the latest public sector practices, and a chapter dedicated to transitioning to agile. It discusses the "grand bargain" between project management and business; the shift in dominance from plans to product and from input to output; and introduces new concepts such as return on benefit. Experienced practitioners and students that want to learn how to make agile work effectively in the enterprise should read this book. Also, individuals preparing for the PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)examination, and training providers developing courses, will find this second edition quite helpful.

This three-volume edition presents the first complete English translation of Proclus' text, together with a general introduction that argues for the unity of Proclus' Commentary and orients the reader to the use which the Neoplatonists made of Plato's Republic in their educational program. Each volume is completed by a Greek word index and an English-Greek glossary that will help non-specialists to track the occurrence of key terms throughout the translated text. The second volume of the edition presents Proclus' essays on the tripartite soul and the virtues, female philosopher rulers, and the metaphysics and epistemology of the central books of the Republic. The longest of the essays in Volume II interprets the nature and significance of the 'marriage number' whose miscalculation leads to the degeneration of the ideal city-state.
