Der Markt für Business Intelligence boomt: Die Auswahl verfügbarer Business-Intelligence-Software wächst ebenso schnell wie die Menge möglicher Einsatzszenarien. Doch warum haben die meisten Unternehmen (noch) nicht den gewünschten Erfolg mit Business Intelligence? Die Antwort ist einfach: Die Nutzung von BI-Technologien allein führt nicht automatisch zu den gewünschten Ergebnissen.

Ein lesenswertes Buch für BI-Experten, BI-Entscheider, BI-Anwender, BI-Berater, Chief Data Officers und CIOs.
Although individually and collectively Americans have many histories, the dominant view of our national past focuses on the colonial era. The reasons for this are many and complex, touching on stories of the country's origins and of the founding fathers, the privileged position in history granted the thirteen original colonies, and the ways in which the nation has adjusted to change and modernity. But no matter the cause, the result is obvious: images and forms derived from and related to America's colonial past are the single most popular form of cultural expression.

Medical malpractice lawsuits are common and controversial in the United States. Since early 2002, doctors' insurance premiums for malpractice coverage have soared.

Contributions from leading figures in health law and policy marshal the best available information, present new empirical evidence, and offer cutting-edge analysis of potential reforms involving patient safety, liability insurance and tort litigation.
After 1979, Switzerland became increasingly involved in Soviet-occupied Afghanistan as a provider of humanitarian aid and good offices. It delivered aid to the region, hosted Soviet prisoners of war and eventually mediated between the Afghan regime and the mujahideen. What is puzzling about this development is that initially, following the Soviet invasion, both government and parliament refused to become diplomatically involved in Afghanistan on account of Swiss neutrality. The present study investigates how and why this changed between 1979 and 1992. While the practical impact of Switzerland’s good offices was modest, the crisis revealed that Switzerland continued to struggle to balance the competing imperatives of permanent neutrality and international solidarity in an increasingly multilateral world.
