Passport to Masculinity
Dr. Haydel’s book is a compilation of his research and experiences with his mentees whom he has serviced over a period of fifty years. He has explored the sense of masculinity from youth to adulthood and what his mentees have believed added to their reflections of reaching maturity. He offers first person descriptions of various aspects of life that his mentees believe have formed their personalities. This represents almost a peek into the minds of these men as they personally explore what maleness represents in their activities and careers. Dr. Haydel announces in his final, advisory remarks to his mentees who are a part of this changing world: They should remember to welcome genuine chal...
A Rendezvous with My Professional Destiny
The books title is not an accident, as Belmont Haydel feels strongly about A Rendezvous with My Professional Destiny. Providence took him to Latin America and other places around the world in macro-economic pursuits. He found his work as an accountant, a military officer, and a diplomat not adequately fulfilling. Gods enlightenment directed him to higher education, where he spent most of his professional years. This book portrays his life through writings, speeches, and service in his chosen fields -- thus, Making a Difference with people and their lives. A compilation of Haydels academic papers and professional works, with selected themes portrayed in eight chapters, is not intended to be a...

A Rendezvous with My Professional Destiny
"Working closely with Belmont I learned to appreciate his deep commitment to a just and ethical society. He has a deep devotion to the principles of a democratic society and a passion for education. I know that this book, which encompasses over 40 years of Belmont's distinguished work in the diplomatic service, business, academics, and consulting, makes significant contributions to the body of literature of several disciplines. His international business papers are of special interest as they truly develop important theories and actions for international commerce and social responsibility."—Ruben Armiñana, Ph.

Advances in Control
Advances in Control contains keynote contributions and tutorial material from the fifth European Control Conference, held in Germany in September 1999. The topics covered are of particular relevance to all academics and practitioners in the field of modern control engineering. These include: - Modern Control Theory - Fault Tolerant Control Systems - Linear Descriptor Systems - Generic Robust Control Design - Verification of Hybrid Systems - New Industrial Perspectives - Nonlinear System Identification - Multi-Modal Telepresence Systems - Advanced Strategies for Process Control - Nonlinear Predictive Control - Logic Controllers of Continuous Plants - Two-dimensional Linear Systems. This important collection of work is introduced by Professor P.M. Frank who has almost forty years of experience in the field of automatic control. State-of-the-art research, expert opinions and future developments in control theory and its industrial applications, combine to make this an essential volume for all those involved in control engineering.
Justices on the Ballot
Justices on the Ballot addresses two central questions in the study of judicial elections: How have state supreme court elections changed since World War II? And, what effects have those changes had on election outcomes, state supreme court decisions, and the public's view of the courts? To answer these questions, Herbert M. Kritzer takes the broadest scope of any study to date, investigating every state supreme court election between 1946 and 2013. Through an analysis of voting returns, campaign contributions and expenditures, television advertising, and illustrative case studies, he shows that elections have become less politicized than commonly believed. Rather, the changes that have occurred reflect broader trends in American politics, as well as increased involvement of state supreme courts in hot-button issues.
Behavioral Clinical Trials for Chronic Diseases
This is the first comprehensive guide to the design of behavioral randomized clinical trials (RCT) for chronic diseases. It includes the scientific foundations for behavioral trial methods, problems that have been encountered in past behavioral trials, advances in design that have evolved, and promising trends and opportunities for the future. The value of this book lies in its potential to foster an ability to “speak the language of medicine” through the conduct of high-quality behavioral clinical trials that match the rigor commonly seen in double-blind drug trials. It is relevant for testing any treatment aimed at improving a behavioral, social, psychosocial, environmental, or policy-...
Human Autonomy in Cross-Cultural Context
This volume presents the reader with a stimulating tapestry of essays exploring the nature of personal autonomy, self-determination, and agency, and their role in human optimal functioning at multiple levels of analysis from personal to societal and cross-cultural. The starting point for these explorations is self-determination theory, an integrated theory of human motivation and healthy development which has been under development for more than three decades (Deci & Ryan, 2000). As the contributions will make clear, psychological autonomy is a concept that forms the bridge between the dependence of human behavior on biological and socio-cultural determinants on the one side, and people’s ...
