From The Ground Up
Der technologische, politische und wirtschaftliche Wandel hat eine komplexe Arbeitswelt geschaffen, wodurch eine Flut neuer Mangementtrends ins Leben gerufen wurde. Jeder dieser Trends, wie z.B. Qualitätsmanagement, Restrukturierung und Management by Empowerment - um nur einige zu nennen -, trägt nur einen Teil zur Lösung des Problems bei. Mittlerweile entwickelt sich eine "Neue Logik", die auf diesen Modellen aufbaut und sie dann weiterentwickelt. Die 6 Grundsätze, die die Basis für diese "Neue Logik" bilden, werden in "From the Ground Up" ausführlich erläutert. Die "Neue Logik" ist keine flüchtige Erscheinung, sondern eine langfristig ausgelegte Strategie, die zum entscheidenden Wettbewerbsvorteil und damit zu dauerhaftem Erfolg führt.
Brain-Computer-Interfaces in their ethical, social and cultural contexts
This volume summarizes the ethical, social and cultural contexts of interfacing brains and computers. It is intended for the interdisciplinary community of BCI stakeholders. Insofar, engineers, neuroscientists, psychologists, physicians, care-givers and also users and their relatives are concerned. For about the last twenty years brain-computer-interfaces (BCIs) have been investigated with increasing intensity and have in principle shown their potential to be useful tools in diagnostics, rehabilitation and assistive technology. The central promise of BCI technology is enabling severely impaired people in mobility, grasping, communication, and entertainment. Successful applications are for instance communication devices enabling locked-in patients in staying in contact with their environment, or prostheses enabling paralysed people in reaching and grasping. In addition to this, it serves as an introduction to the whole field of BCI for any interested reader.

Professional Burnout
A rapidly growing number of people experience psychological strain at their workplace. In almost all industrialized countries, absenteeism and turnover rates increase, and an increasing amount of workers receive disablement benefits because of psychological problems. This book, first published in 1993, concentrates on a specific kind of occupational stress: burnout, the depletion of energy resources as a result of continuous emotional demands of the job. This volume presents theoretical perspectives that had been developed in the United States and Europe, discusses methodological issues, and examines organisational contexts. Written by an international group of leading scholars, this book will be of interest to students of both psychology and human resource management.

Creating Self-Regulated Learners
Most of our students neither know how learning works nor what they have to do to ensure it, to the detriment both of their studies and their development as lifelong learners.The point of departure for this book is the literature on self-regulated learning that tells us that deep, lasting, independent learning requires learners to bring into play a range of cognitive skills, affective attitudes, and even physical activities – about which most students are wholly unaware; and that self-regulation, which has little to do with measured intelligence, can be developed by just about anyone and is a fundamental prerequisite of academic success.Linda Nilson provides the theoretical background to st...

The Deadly Embrace
The purpose of this book is three-fold: First, drawing on a wide array of primary and secondary sources, it aims to compare and contrast the historical roots, goals, strategies, organizational structures, and current activities of Palestinian and Israeli opponents of any mutual compromise. Second, the book assesses the dynamic interaction of two rejectionist movements, espousing mutually exclusive political agendas and demonstrates how they feed off and reinforce each others enmities. Third, the book seeks to expose to public scrutiny a deeply-entrenched phenomenon that has continued to lurk in the shadows, while enjoying both tacit and direct support from segments within the American Arab a...
