Managing Religious Diversity in the Workplace
Many observers propose the exclusion of all religious related aspects from organizational life, others promote a more tolerant approach of certain practices, symbols and ceremonies, and few commentators highlight the values, diverse religious beliefs and experiences that employees could bring to the organization. Arguments, conclusions and recommendations are often contradictory and inconclusive due to the complexity and dividing nature of religion diversity. In Managing Religious Diversity in the Workplace the editors present a selection of essays, conceptual papers, empirical studies and case studies about how religious diversity and spirituality are managed. The book explores how firms ad...
The Struggle Within Islam
"Islam is a simple religion: it requires of its followers only two things -- one, a belief in the unity of God and, two, a belief in the prophethood of Muhammad. Despite the pure and homogeneous nature of the faith, the history of Islam has been one of conflict. The first problem Islam faced was the issue of succession to the Prophet. from then on, Islam has been riven by dissent -- a result of the almost uninterrupted face-off between Islamic rulers, who were usually secular and flexible in their interpretation and implementation of the rules and practices of Islam and fundamentalist theologians, jurists and their followers, who insisted on a rigid adherence to the Quran and the Sunna. Besides a thorough analysis of this problem, the author examines other issues that have led to discord -- the treatment of non-Muslims in an Islamic State; the power of taxation of the State; the nature of punishment for certain offences mentioned in the Quran and so on." --Page [4] of cover.

Genealogy and Knowledge in Muslim Societies
These case studies link genealogical knowledge to particular circumstances in which it was created, circulated and promoted. They stress the malleability of kinship and memory, and the interests this malleability serves. From the Prophet's family tree to the present, ideas about kinship and descent have shaped communal and national identities in Muslim societies. So an understanding of genealogy is vital to our understanding of Muslim societies, particularly with regard to the generation, preservation and manipulation of genealogical knowledge.
Law, Social Sciences, and Public Policy
"Professionals and government officials often encounter a variety of legal and public policy questions which have economic, sociological, political and spatial overtones and implications." "This volume brings together lawyers and social scientists to discuss pertinent issues from their relevant expertise, with the aim of providing new insights into the different training, skills and background of law and the social sciences, which would in turn contribute to a more symbiotic relationship between the two disciplines to help policy and decision-makers be fair and efficient in implementing or advising regulatory and developmental programmes." "This volume should be a useful reference to policy-makers, professionals advising the government, lawyers and researchers undertaking inter-disciplinary studies."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Recent Advances in Mathematics and Technology
The chapters in this volume are based on talks given at the inaugural Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Conference (TEM18), held from March 26 to 27, 2018 in Kenitra, Morocco. Advances in mathematical modeling, optimization, numerical analysis, signal processing, and computer science are presented by leading experts in these fields. There is a particular emphasis on stochastic analysis, machine learning algorithms, and deep learning models, which are highly relevant to the state-of-the-art in augmented, virtual, and mixed realities. Topics include: Harmonic analysis Big data analytics and applications Biomathematics Computer engineering and applications Economics and financial engineering Medical imaging and non-destructive testing This volume is ideal for engineers and researchers working in technological fields that need to be modeled and simulated using the tools of modern mathematics.
