The Principles of Scientific Management

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Taylor, Frederick Winslow, PUBLISHER: Nuvision Publications, This paper has been written: First. To point out, through a series of simple illustrations, the great loss which the whole country is suffering through inefficiency in almost all of our daily acts. Second. To try to convince the reader that the remedy for this inefficiency lies in systematic management, rather than in searching for some unusual or extraordinary man. Third. To prove that the best management is a true science, resting upon clearly defined laws, rules, and principles, as a foundation. And further to show that the fundamental principles of scientific management are applicable to all kinds of human activities, from our simplest individual acts to the work of our great corporations, which call for the most elaborate cooperation. And, briefly, through a series of illustrations, to convince the reader that whenever these principles are correctly applied, results must follow which are truly astounding.

When I'm Angry [With 16-Page Parents' Guide]

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Aaron, Jane / Gardiner, Barbara, PUBLISHER: St. Martin's Press, Often children are frightened and confused by their own angry feelings. They need to be reassured that this emotion is a normal part of life. "When I'm Angry," one of the first books in the Language of Parenting series, explains this difficult subject in a completely original and practical way. Jane Aaron's boldly illustrated children's book features simple language and vivid imaged that capture a child's attention. Depicting kids in typical situation that evoke anger, the illustrations help children realize that others not only experience the same feelings, but find positive ways to cope with them. Because it is often difficult to talk with children about such abstract concepts as feelings, When I'm Angry includes a guide for parents written by respected therapist Dr. Barbara Gardiner. "A Parent's Guide to Anger "shows parents how to use "When I'm Angry" to interact with their children and conduct meaningful dialogue specific to the needs of children at different ages. Parents are asked to validate their child's feelings and share their own similar experiences with anger as starting points for discussion. Dr. Gardiner pinpoint some common situations and how to deal with them: --fight over toys. --"hating" a sibling. --frustration over losing a game. Dr. Gardiner's Language of Parenting is based on the fundamental ABC' of parenting: acknowledging a child's feelings (accepting anger and directing it appropriately), having age-appropriate behavioral expectations (a two-year old should be able to sit at the table without throwing food), and demonstrating consistency in parenting style (maintaining house rules such as bedtime). She emphasizes the importance of allowingchildren to generate their own solutions.

Aman and his mother escape--without Shadow. Aman is heart-broken.

Life Alignment: Walking in Step with God

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: James, William N., PUBLISHER: Wasteland Press, Life on earth exists by the laws of nature. A few minutes under water can mean death to humans. A fish on land cannot survive for long. The law of gravity has taken the lives of many. The lack of common sense has meant the demise of some. Just as the tires of a car wear out too soon when the wheels are out of alignment, even so a life lived out of alignment with God's principles will face early burnout. We are created in the image of God. We must know what these principles are and not ignore them. Authentic Christianity is to know, understand and practice the principles that God has given to us in His Word; the Bible. This book is a careful look at nine of these principles Psalm "BLESSED IS EVERY ONE WHO FEARS THE LORD, WHO WALKS IN HIS WAYS."

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Walker, Robert / Parker, Gillian / Walker, Robert, PUBLISHER: Sage Publications (CA), Underlying the current political and academic debate on the welfare state are two basic issues: What are the needs of individuals and social groups, and what resources do they have to meet those needs?

New Capitalism?: The Transformation of Work

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Doogan, Kevin, PUBLISHER: Polity Press, In this stimulating and highly original work, Kevin Doogan looks at contemporary social transformation through the lens of the labour market. Major themes of the day -- globalization, technological change and the new economy, the pension and demographic timebombs, flexibility and traditional employment -- are all subject to critical scrutiny. We are often told that a new global economy has emerged which has transformed our lives. It is argued that the pace of technological change, the mobility of multinational capital and the privatization of the welfare state have combined to create a more precarious world. Companies are outsourcing, jobs are migrating to China and India, and a job for life is said to be a thing of the past. The so-called 'new capitalism' is said to be the result of these profound changes. Kevin Doogan takes issue with these widely-accepted ideas and subjects the transformation of work to detailed examination through a comprehensive analysis of developments in Europe and North America. He argues that precariousness is not a natural consequence of this fast-changing world; rather, current insecurities are manufactured, emanating from government policy and the greater exposure of the economy to market forces. New Capitalism? The Transformation of Work is sure to stimulate academic debate. Kevin Doogan's account will appeal not just to scholars, but also to upper-level students across the social sciences, including the sociology of work, industrial relations, globalization, economics, social policy and business studies

History Lessons: Teaching, Learning, and Testing in U.S.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Grant, S. G., PUBLISHER: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, In this book, extended case studies of two veteran teachers and their students are combined with the extant research literature to explore current issues of teaching, learning, and testing U.S. history. It is among the first to examine these issues together and in interaction. While the two teachers share several similarities, the teaching practices they construct could not be more different. To explore these differences, the author asks what their teaching practices look like, how their instruction influences their students' understandings of history, and what role statewide exams play in their classroom decisions. "History Lessons: Teaching, Learning, and Testing in U.S. High School Classrooms" is a major contribution to the emerging body of empirical research in the field of social studies education, chiefly in the subject area of history, which asks how U.S. students make sense of history and how teachers construct their classroom practices. Three case study chapters are paired with three essay review chapters intended to help readers analyze the cases by looking at them in the context of the current research literature. Two concluding chapters extend the cases and analyses: the first looks at how and why the teachers profiled in this book construct their individual teaching practices, in terms of three distinct but interacting sets of influences--personal, organizational, and policy factors; the second explores the prospects for promoting what the author defines as ambitious teaching and learning. Many policymakers assume that standards-based reforms support the efforts of ambitious teachers, but until we better understand how they and the students in their classes think and act, that assumption is hollow at best. This book is a must have for faculty and students in the field of social studies education, and broadly relevant across the fields of curriculum studies and educational policy.

Numerical Computation in Science and Engineering

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Pozrikidis, C., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Designed for non-expert students and researchers, this text provides an accessible introduction to scientific numerical computation and its applications. It assumes no prior knowledge beyond undergraduate calculus and elementary computer programming. Fundamental and practical issues are discussed in a unified manner with a generous, but not excessive, dose of numerical analysis. The topics are introduced on a need to know basis in order to concisely illustrate the practical implementation of a variety of algorithms and to demystify seemingly esoteric numerical methods. Algorithms that can be explained without too much elaboration and implemented within a few dozen lines of computer code are discussed in detail; those whose underlying theories require long, elaborate explanations are discussed at the level of first principles, and references for further information are given. The book uses schematic illustrations to demonstrate concepts and facilitate understanding by providing readers with a helpful interplay between ideas and visual images. Real-world examples, drawn from various branches of science and engineering, are presented in those cases where it would be difficult for readers to produce their own. The text is further enhanced by an accompanying library of FORTRAN programs, freely available on the World Wide Web at http://www-ames.ucsd.edu/research/pozrikidis/ncse. Drawing a direct connection between numerical analysis and numerical computation, Numerical Computation in Science and Engineering serves as an ideal text for courses in numerical methods and as a supplement in any course involving numerical computation, including fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, control theory, and thermodynamics.
