Paul Andreu
Paul Andreu is well known for the more than 50 airports in Europe, Asia and Africa which he designed as head architect of the Aéroports de Paris, and for the Grande Arche de la Defense in Paris.

Textualizing the Immigrant Experience in Contemporary Quebec
Immigration to Qu'ebec has led to the decline of the idea of the homogenous national identity within French-language literary production and the creation of a new literature of multiple Queb'ecois identities, according to editors Ireland and Proulx. Concepts of diversity and hybridity run throughout the 16 essays contained here, which seek to collectively explore the way immigrant writers position themselves in relation to Qu'eb'ecois literature and society. A few essays explore the general contours of Qu'eb'ecois cinema and theater in relation to these questions, but the majority are devoted to more focused examinations of particular writers of novels, short stories, and poems.

Vessel Health and Preservation: The Right Approach for Vascular Access
This Open access book offers updated and revised information on vessel health and preservation (VHP), a model concept first published in poster form in 2008 and in JVA in 2012, which has received a great deal of attention, especially in the US, UK and Australia. The book presents a model and a new way of thinking applied to vascular access and administration of intravenous treatment, and shows how establishing and maintaining a route of access to the bloodstream is essential for patients in acute care today. Until now, little thought has been given to an intentional process to guide selection, insertion and management of vascular access devices (VADs) and by default actions are based on cris...
Swiss Made
Why has Switzerland - a tiny, land-locked country with few natural advantages - become so successful for so long at so many things? In banking, pharmaceuticals, machinery, even textiles, Swiss companies rank alongside the biggest and most powerful global competitors. How did they get there? How do they continue to refresh themselves? Does the Swiss 'Sonderfall' (special case) provide lessons others can learn and benefit from? Can the Swiss continue to perform in a hyper-competitive global economy? Swiss Made offers answers to these and many other questions about the country as it describes the origins, structures and characteristics of the most important Swiss companies. The authors suggest success is due to a large degree to sound entrepreneurial thinking and an openness to new ideas. And they venture a surprising forecast on the country's ability to keep pace in an age of globalisation.
