Free Download Verantwortung führt!: Ein neues Führungsverständnis für die moderne Arbeitswelt
Deutsch | 2024 | ISBN: 3648176560 | 195 Pages | PDF (True) | 2 MB
Braucht es in Zeiten von New Work, flachen Hierarchien und Wunsch nach grenzenloser Entfaltung überhaupt noch Führung? Thorsten Knobbe beantwortet diese Frage mit einem klaren Ja und zeigt Wege aus dem Dilemma. In seinem Buch fasst er den Kern und die Wirkmechanismen von Führung zusammen und zeigt, wie sich Rituale, Rollen und Organisationsformen in der neuen Arbeitswelt ändern müssen. Als Lösung definiert er einen neuen Führungsbegriff, der sich mehr an der Verantwortung für ein Ziel oder eine Sache als an hierarchischer Legitimation orientiert. Zudem erfahren Organisationen, wie sie ihren Nachwuchs an Verantwortung heranführen und bei allen Mitarbeitenden eine positive Dynamik erzeugen können.

Free Download Kerry Segrave, "Vending Machines: An American Social History"
English | ISBN: 0786413697 | 2002 | 290 pages | PDF | 35 MB
Although the 1880s are considered the beginning of the vending machine era, these devices have existed for a couple of thousand years. The earliest reference to a vending machine was made by Hero-a Greek mathematician, physicist and engineer who probably lived in Alexandria during the first century a.d.-who described and illustrated a coin-operated device to be used for vending sacrificial water in Egyptian temples. Completely automatic, the device was set in operation by the insertion of a five-drachma coin.

Free Download Thomas Gärtner, "Untersuchungen zur Gestaltung und zum historischen Stoff der "Johannis" Coripps"
Deutsch | 2008 | pages: 145 | ISBN: 3110201070 | PDF | 0,5 mb
Thomas Gärtner befasst sich mit der Johannis, dem großen Feldherrnepos des bedeutenden spätantiken Dichters Coripp. Die Johannis ist dem Wirken des Feldherrn Johannes Troglita gewidmet, dem unter Kaiser Justinian I. im Jahre 548 n. Chr. die Rückeroberung und Befriedung Nordafrikas gelang. Die vorliegende Untersuchung besitzt ein doppeltes Erkenntnisziel: Zum einen wird Coripps Verarbeitung historischer Quellen beleuchtet, insbesondere sein Rückgriff auf die Geschichtsschreibung Prokops. Nicht minder wichtig ist die systematische literaturgeschichtliche Verortung von Coripps Werk in der Tradition der lateinischen Dichtung. Dieses Anliegen verfolgt Thomas Gärtner, indem er literarische Eigenschaften der Johannis einer gattungsspezifischen Analyse unterzieht. Neben der Bestimmung der Makrostruktur des Werks liegt ein besonderes Augenmerk schließlich auf der in der Coripp-Forschung vielfach vernachlässigten Analyse der Mikrostruktur des Abhängigkeitsverhältnisses zwischen Coripp und seinen antiken literarischen Vorbildern.

Free Download Understanding Cancer Prevention through Geospatial Science: Putting Cancer in its Place by Trevor Dummer
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 325 Pages | ISBN : 3031664124 | 63 MB
The worldwide cancer burden will double over the next two decades, with the number of new cancer diagnoses increasing in all regions of the world. However, it is estimated that around 40% of all cancers are preventable through the appropriate application of existing epidemiological and public health knowledge, and with further research this proportion will increase considerably. This edited volume explores the role of place in cancer prevention and how geospatial tools can be used to support this globally important goal. Its chapters detail many aspects of the application of geospatial science to cancer control, including quantifying exposure to environmental carcinogens, access to screening services, the importance of partnership building, and more through a variety of geographically diverse case studies. The book also offers background on geospatial modeling tools and methods for adding spatial analysis to cancer surveillance systems. The book is rooted firmly in the notion that geography significantly influences the accumulation of cancer risks (at the individual and community level) that are modifiable through policy, regulatory, and behavioral changes.

Free Download James Morcan, "UNDERGROUND BASES: Subterranean Military Facilities and the Cities Beneath Our Feet "
English | ISBN: 0473365405 | 2016 | 150 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
What do the world's superpowers get up to in their secret underground bunkers?UNDERGROUND BASES: Subterranean Military Facilities and the Cities Beneath Our Feet, by novelists, filmmakers and independent researchers James Morcan & Lance Morcan, details confirmed and rumored underground facilities in the United States and around the world. Containing rare photographic evidence throughout as well as little-known quotes from key government figures, it makes a compelling case for there being an enormous hidden world under the Earth's surface. The Morcans speculate that the covert underground infrastructure may be far bigger than anyone has previously supposed and is likely used for the development of suppressed technologies. Their sources include declassified files, university reports, WikiLeaks' documents and interviews with ex-military personnel turned whistleblowers who claim to have worked in "cities below ground".UNDERGROUND BASES delivers a vast array of facts and theories that ultimately allows readers to form their own conclusions. The exposé covers everything from: the US Department of Defense's verified evacuation areas beneath the White House and the Pentagon as well as their acknowledged sites at Mount Weather and Cheyenne Mountain; underground facilities around the world including Russia's sprawling Mezhgorye complex and Australia's CIA-managed Pine Gap; the long-forgotten newspaper headlines which reported that Adolf Hitler and senior SS officers may have built a Nazi colony beneath Antarctica after WW2; rumors that human-alien joint ventures are occurring below ground and that kidnapped citizens are being detained in subterranean prisons for illegal medical experimentation such as cloning. Why are the Global Elite spending trillions of dollars of their black budgets to build such vast networks of underground (and undersea and under-ice) sites? Are they simply preparing for emergencies as per official government explanations? Do they believe an Armageddon scenario is imminent? Are they secretly collaborating with extraterrestrials? Or, are they literally creating a breakaway civilization separate to the rest of humanity? To attempt to address these and other questions, UNDERGROUND BASES takes readers on a vicarious journey into miles-deep military bases and other subterranean facilities not known to the general public.

Free Download Gavin Hyman, "Traversing the Middle"
English | ISBN: 149821407X | 2013 | 230 pages | EPUB | 224 KB
In recent philosophy, theology, and critical theory, postmodern thought has been much criticized on specifically ethical and political grounds. In particular, it has been argued that postmodernism has induced passivity and is impotent in the face of the challenges presented by the hegemonic global market. In response numerous thinkers have called for the "return of the metanarrative" or have insisted on the necessity of the domain of the "universal." In this book, Gavin Hyman accepts the diagnosis, while contesting the cure. Through detailed engagements with the work of Alain Badiou, Slavoj Zizek, and John Milbank-as well as discussions of the work of Simon Critchley, Michael Hardt, and Antonio Negri-Hyman argues that many contemporary thinkers merely invert the problems intrinsic to postmodernism and therefore do not effectively escape them. He argues that the ethical and political are best preserved and perpetuated through the negotiating of an ongoing tension between the domains of the universal, the particular, and the singular. To proceed thus would be to traverse the terrain of the middle-ethically, politically, and religiously.
