ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Marx, Leo / Mazlish, Bruce, PUBLISHER: University of Michigan Press, Progress, perhaps the fundamental secular belief of modern Western society, has come under heavy fire recently because, after three centuries, advances in science and technology seem increasingly to bring problems in their wake: alienation, environmental degradation, the threat of nuclear destruction. The idea of progress is brought into question by postmodern critique, attacking the notion of science as truth. Yet no other meaningful organization of humankind's sense of time looms on the horizon. This volume seeks to reassess the meaning and prospects of the idea of progress. Looking toward the millennium, the volume seeks to evaluate the idea's worth both in theory--is it intellectually viable and defensible today?--and practice--even if theoretically defensible, is the idea undermined in actual life? Approaching these questions from the perspectives of science, anthropology, economics, religion, political philosophy, feminism, medicine, environmental studies, and the Third World, the contributors, all distinguished scholars, provide a unique and critical balance. Ultimately, the contributors find that progress is both a fact and an illusion: it does occur in certain areas, but it does not sweep all before it as its Enlightenment votaries thought it would. This foundational idea permeates discourse in the natural and social sciences as well as the humanities and will engage historians, students of the history of science and technology, sociologists, political scientists, philosophers, literary scholars, and art critics, as well as those interested in civilization in general. Contributors include: Jill Ker Conway, Zhiyuan Cui, Leon Eisenberg, Robert Heilbroner, Gerald Holton, Leo Marx, Bruce Mazlish, Ali A. Mazrui, Alan Ryan, John M. Staudenmaier, George W. Stocking, Jr., and Richard White. "A discerning reconsideration of the idea of 'progress' in a variety of carefully defined theoretical and empirical-historical contexts." --David Hollinger, University of California, Berkeley Leo Marx is Professor of American Cultural History, Emeritus, Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Benford, Gregory, PUBLISHER: Avon Books, Human civilization has evolved to the point at which we have begun consciously sending messages into the far future. How should we communicate who we are, what we know, to asyet-unmet intelligent beings elsewhere in both time and space? Will they be able to decipher what we say? And what information will we leave to Earth's occupants a million years hence? How can we address an unknown destiny in which human culture itself may no longer exist? Combining the logical rigor of a scientist with the lyrical beauty of a novelist, Gregory Benford explores these and other fascinating questions in a provocative analysis of humanity's attempts to make its culture immortal, to cross the immense gulf that such deep-time messages must span in order to be understood. In clear, crisp language, he confronts our growing influence on events hundreds of thousands of years into the future, and explores the possible "messages" we may transmit to our distant descendants in the language of the planet itself -- from nuclear waste to global warming to the extinction of species. We are already sending messages into nearby space; in the coming ages we will be able to launch probes accurately to other stars. Our indelible legacy to future generations, or to the next occupants of this planet, is already being constructed. As we begin our incredible journey down the path of eternity, Gregory Benford masterfully calls forth some of the intriguing, astounding, undreamed -- of futures which may await us in deep time.Human civilization has evolved to the point at which we have begun consciously sending messages into the far future.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brenner, Joel, PUBLISHER: Penguin Press, A former top-level National Security Agency insider goes behind the headlines to explore America's next great battleground: digital security. An urgent wake-up call that identifies our foes; unveils their methods; and charts the dire consequences for government, business, and individuals. Shortly after 9/11, Joel Brenner entered the inner sanctum of American espionage, first as the inspector general of the National Security Agency, then as the head of counterintelligence for the director of national intelligence. He saw at close range the battleground on which our adversaries are now attacking us-cyberspace. We are at the mercy of a new generation of spies who operate remotely from China, the Middle East, Russia, even France, among many other places. These operatives have already shown their ability to penetrate our power plants, steal our latest submarine technology, rob our banks, and invade the Pentagon's secret communications systems. Incidents like the WikiLeaks posting of secret U.S. State Department cables hint at the urgency of this problem, but they hardly reveal its extent or its danger. Our government and corporations are a "glass house," all but transparent to our adversaries. Counterfeit computer chips have found their way into our fighter aircraft; the Chinese stole a new radar system that the navy spent billions to develop; our own soldiers used intentionally corrupted thumb drives to download classified intel from laptops in Iraq. And much more. Dispatches from the corporate world are just as dire. In , hackers lifted customer files from the Royal Bank of Scotland and used them to withdraw $9 million in half an hour from ATMs in the United States, Britain, and Canada. If that was a traditional heist, it would be counted as one of the largest in history. Worldwide, corporations lose on average $5 million worth of intellectual property apiece annually, and big companies lose many times that. The structure and culture of the Internet favor spies over governments and corporations, and hackers over privacy, and we've done little to alter that balance. Brenner draws on his extraordinary background to show how to right this imbalance and bring to cyberspace the freedom, accountability, and security we expect elsewhere in our lives. In "America the Vulnerable," Brenner offers a chilling and revelatory appraisal of the new faces of war and espionage-virtual battles with dangerous implications for government, business, and all of us.
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: White, Susan S. / Schneider, Benjamin, PUBLISHER: Sage Publications (CA), "This book is not a 'one-minute' guide for managers in search of alleged quick-fixes of service quality. Instead, it is thirty years of accumulated theory and research that can help serious students understand and analyze this complex phenomenon. The book succeeds in embedding the often overlooked customer within organization studies, using the interdisciplinary approach that scholars preach but seldom practice, and closing with an agenda for future research that others might even find worth pursuing." --Dr. David E. Bowen, Professor of Management and Dean of Faculty and Programs, Thunderbird"Schneider and White promise to deliver insight into the intriguing intricacies of providing excellent services. They deliver sagacity, the intelligent application of knowledge. They do this by being eclectic, disciplined, and thoughtful... Facts about service - what it is, how it happens, what is required to make it better - thankfully dominate this book, supported by good thinking and good methods. No one interested in service quality should miss this book. There is no other book like it." --Rick Guzzo, Ph.D., Mercer Human Resource Consulting"The coverage is excellent. Among other things, it does a nice job of providing a rationale for why researchers and managers need to understand the perspectives of their customers." --Susan E. Jackson, Ph.D., Rutgers UniversityThe last three decades have seen a dramatic increase in the attention businesses devote to their quality of service. Scholars and researchers in a number of disciplines, including marketing, human resources I/O psychology, sociology, and consumer behavior, have all made substantial contributions to understanding what service is, howservice and service delivery quality are experienced by customers, and the role of employees and their organizations in service delivery. Service Quality: Research Perspectives presents a comprehensive overview and analysis of the field and its research, including its growth, emerging trends, and debates. Authors Benjamin Schneider and Susan S. White cover the diverse conceptual and empirical approaches that characterize thinking and research on service quality, especially service delivery. It introduces the concept of service and the important ways service production can differ from goods production. It also presents a history of the concept of product quality and the emergence of concern for service quality. Key Features Summarizes conceptual and empirical research from the marketing perspective on the measurement of service quality and customer satisfaction Deals with concepts and approaches to service characteristic of operations management, especially the role of customer variability in service production Introduces research promoting the linkage of service climate experienced by employees to the service quality experienced by customers Presents several HR/OB approaches to organizational design and useful frameworks for integrating ide
Cd Lee Konitz Self Portrait Philology Jazz W Kary's Trance Dearly Beloved The Song Is You Self Portrait In Blues Subconscious Lee The Way You Look Tonight Riffin' With Every Breath I Take Cherokee Back And Forth 4:52 Credits Alto Saxophone ā Lee Konitz Producer ā Paolo Piangiarelli Da bambino impara, da autodidatta, a suonare la fisarmonica per poi passare, influenzato da Benny Goodman, al clarinetto. Konitz, allora undicenne, aspira a suonare in qualche orchestrina e capisce che per realizzare il suo sogno ĆØ meglio imparare a suonare anche il sassofono tenore. Studia il jazz essenzialmente con Lennie Tristano (uno degli artefici della corrente chiamata cool-jazz), impronta stilistica che gli resterĆ per tutta la carriera. Nel , ormai divenuto musicista professionista, per suonare nell'orchestra di Jerry Wald, prende in mano anche il sassofono contralto. In questa fase la sua evoluzione artistica ĆØ fortemente influenzata da Lennie Tristano, il pianista suo concittadino di appena otto anni più vecchio, di cui diviene allievo fedele. Le influenze tristaniane sono giĆ evidenti nelle sue prime incisioni del con l'orchestra di Claude Thornhill. Qui conosce altri due musicisti molto importanti per il suo futuro artistico: Gil Evans e, soprattutto, Miles Davis. Quest'ultimo stava per creare un suo gruppo - conosciuto come Tuba Band - di cui fecero parte, oltre a Davis e Konitz, altri futuri protagonisti della scena jazzistica mondiale quali Gerry Mulligan e Max Roach. Con Davis realizza anche il capolavoro Ezz-thetic, scritto dal giovane genio George Russell. Nel entra come guest soloist nell'orchestra di Stan Kenton, con la quale realizza In lighter vein, concertino per saax e orchestra scritto e arrangiato da Bill Holman. Nel frattempo continua a collaborare con Tristano (Intuition e Digression, del , sono i primi brani totalmente improvvisati mai incisi - ovvero gli antenati del free jazz), Billy Bauer, Gerry Mulligan, Chet Baker, Sal Mosca e soprattutto il suo alter-ego tenoristico Warne Marsh. Tipico di Konitz ĆØ la costanza con cui ritorna ad esplorare gli stessi standard, trovando sempre qualcosa di nuovo e interessante da dire; un bell'esempio ĆØ il disco Motion, realizzato nel in trio con il batterista Elvin Jones. Subisce spesso il fascino del duetto, a partire da The Lee Konitz duets, con Jones, Eddie Gomez, Jim Hall, Karl Berger, Dick Katz, Joe Henderson, Richie Kamuca, Marshall Brown e Ray Nance. Dagli anni '60 in avanti Lee ha scelto la carriera di solista free-lance, suonando spesso con sconosciute ritmiche locali - a volte di qualitĆ discutibile, e a volte incontrando grandissimi musicisti come Bill Evans, Charles Mingus, Martial Solal, Bob Brookmeyer, Paul Motian, Paul Bley, Albert Mangelsdorff, Lars Gullin, Henri Texier, Charlie Haden, Phil Woods, Art Pepper, Ornette Coleman, Red Rodney, Brad Mehldau, Dave Holland, Kenny Wheeler, Bill Frisell, Michel Petrucciani ed altri. In Italia ha suonato con Renato Sellani, Enrico Rava, Glauco Venier, Enrico Pieranunzi, Barbara Casini, Franco D'Andrea ecc.
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lewis, Michael, PUBLISHER: W. W. Norton & Company, Moneyball is a quest for the secret of success in baseball. Following the low-budget Oakland Athletics, their larger-than-life general manger, Billy Beane, and the strange brotherhood of amateur baseball enthusiasts, Michael Lewis has written not only "the single most influential baseball book ever" (Rob Neyer, Slate) but also what "may be the best book ever written on business" (Weekly Standard). I wrote this book because I fell in love with a story. The story concerned a small group of undervalued professional baseball players and executives, many of whom had been rejected as unfit for the big leagues, who had turned themselves into one of the most successful franchises in Major League Baseball. But the idea for the book came well before I had good reason to write it-before I had a story to fall in love with. It began, really, with an innocent question: how did one of the poorest teams in baseball, the Oakland Athletics, win so many games? With these words Michael Lewis launches us into the funniest, smartest, and most contrarian book since, well, since Liar's Poker. Moneyball is a quest for something as elusive as the Holy Grail, something that money apparently can't buy: the secret of success in baseball. The logical places to look would be the front offices of major league teams, and the dugouts, perhaps even in the minds of the players themselves. Lewis mines all these possibilities-his intimate and original portraits of big league ballplayers are alone worth the price of admission-but the real jackpot is a cache of numbers-numbers -collected over the years by a strange brotherhood of amateur baseball enthusiasts: software engineers, statisticians, Wall Street analysts, lawyers and physics professors. What these geek numbers show-no, prove-is that the traditional yardsticks of success for players and teams are fatally flawed. Even the box score misleads us by ignoring the crucial importance of the humble base-on-balls. This information has been around for years, and nobody inside Major League Baseball paid it any mind. And then came Billy Beane, General Manager of the Oakland Athletics. Billy paid attention to those numbers -with the second lowest payroll in baseball at his disposal he had to-and this book records his astonishing experiment in finding and fielding a team that nobody else wanted. Moneyball is a roller coaster ride: before the season opens, Oakland must relinquish its three most prominent (and expensive) players, is written off by just about everyone, and then comes roaring back to challenge the American League record for consecutive wins. In a narrative full of fabulous characters and brilliant excursions into the unexpected, Michael Lewis shows us how and why the new baseball knowledge works. He also sets up a sly and hilarious morality tale: Big Money, like Goliath, is always supposed to win...how can we not cheer for David?

Favorisce un migliore assorbimento dei nutrienti nella cellula. 10. Possiede un azione anti catabolica muscolare naturale. 11. Non produce cascate di altri radicali liberi. Nessun altra sostanza al mondo naturale o chimica può fare questo... integrare ciò di cui siamo fatti (Idrogeno) grazie alla nanotecnologia applicata alla nutrizione. La Microidrina è stata fonte di una grande ricerca all 'University of North Texas Health Science Center' di Fort Worth. Sono stati fatti numerosi esperimenti sui radicali liberi, sulla produzione di NAdh di Atp, sulla conducibilità elettrica e soprattutto sul potenziale, oltre che per la protezione della membrana cellulare e del dna, di riparare il dna stesso... come? Apportando una grossa mole di ATP dentro la cellula affinché acidi grassi e altri coenzimi nutrienti avessero la possibilità di lavorare sulle diverse strutture del DNA. la Microidrina è una magia della natura! Permette di vivere sani come gli Hunza, che hanno una vita media ultracentenaria, senza malattia e senza dolore, grazie ai colloidi del silicio organico. Impressionante vedere questo popolo all'età di 70 anni esprimere una vitalità e un aspetto di uomini di 40! - Riduzione di acido lattico con miglioramento delle prestazioni sportive grazie anche all'immensa mole di ATP disponibile - miglioramento del rapporto acido-alcalino - apporto di ATP a tutte le cellule - miglioramento della conducibilità elettrica - prolungamento della vita cellulare - energia fisica ottimale - NESSUN effetto collaterale. Un bicchiere d'acqua con una capsula di Microidrina, rimane stabile (al contrario di tutti gli antiossidanti disponibili al mondo d'oggi) e non produce a sua volta altri radicali liberi. Una porzione di Microidrina disciolta nell'acqua ha il potere di ridurre la tensione superficiale dell'acqua da 73 a 45 dine. In questo modo si può ridurre la tensione superficiale dell'acqua potabile allo stesso livello dell'acqua extracellulare del corpo. La debole tensione superficiale dell'acqua è una differenza vitale. Una tensione superficiale minore rende l'acqua "più idratante". Microhydrin Plus è attualmente il più potente nemico della vecchiaia, ci sono 2 cose che contano nella vita per vivere davvero: 1) quanta consapevolezza abbiamo nell'affrontare il nostro destino, 2) quanta energia abbiamo a disposizione per sostenere tutto questo. E' questo il binario della vita 'Energia/Consapevolezza'. Cosa aspetti allora, chiamami e datti una CARICA!!! *** Microhydrin Plus non è un medicinale per il quali e richiesta la prescrizione medica, ma è un integratore alimentare di cui è ammessa la vendita on line ***

Samyang 85mm T1.5 AS IF UMC VDSLR LensThe Samyang 85mm T1.5 is a manual focusprime lens, this VDSLR (Video DSLR) version has been developed primarilyfor professional cine / movie making purposes. The VDSLR versionfeature follow focus gearing and decoupled aperture, which allow theuser to smoothly and quietly change focus and aperture / depth of fieldwhist filming, and link to professional follow focus cam systems.TheSamyang 85mm T1.5 is a manual focus prime lens, designed to giveexceptional results at wide apertures. At T1.5 great images can beobtained, which is perfect for portraiture and low light shooting,particularly when mounted on a full frame DSLRs.The SamyangVDSLR Cine lenses are rated in T-Stops rather than F-stops which is thestandard for professional movie camera lenses. F-stop number expressesthe speed of the lens on the assumption that lens transmits 100% of theincident light, and therefore is theoretical rather than a real worldmeasurement. The T-number expresses the actual light transmission, andthus is accurate for exposure purposes. It is also worth noting that theSamyang lenses achieve excellent transmissions properties.Thebokeh (the character of the out-of-focus blur) is a primary concern forprofessionals choosing an ultra large aperture lens for shallowdepth-of-field photography. The Samyang 85mm T1.5 lens design offersexcellent bokeh quality of out-of-focus highlights when used near wideopen, perfect for film and cine applications. Independent tests andusers confirm the Samyang',s beautiful bokeh character, surpassing lenses4 times the price.The lens optical construction is the same asthe 85mm f1.4 lens comprising of 9 lenses divided into 7 optical groupswith one aspheric lens element. The Samyang 85mm is designed withinternal focusing (IF) meaning the lens does not increase in size whenfocusing. A further positive aspect to internal focusing is that thelens is much less likely to get dust inside, as opposed to externalfocusing (or zooming) lenses which can suck in dirt during use. The 8bladed aperture design aids a great bokeh character at near wide openapertures.The Samyang 85mm T1.5 IF MC features Multi-coatedlenses which aid the very high level of light transmission, and addedresistance to flare and ghosting. It features a good sized manual focusring and is perfectly adapted to most photographic applications(exclusive of sports or fast moving subjects) where manual focus is notan issue. Accurate for focus critical situations can be achieved throughuse of focusing in live view mode, available to most newer cameramodels. In practice users including professional photographers havefound manual focus of the Samyang 85mm not to be an issue, even shootingat f1.4 with a very shallow depth of field in low light scenarios withstatic and slow moving subjects accurate focus can be achieved givingexcellent results thought the image on full frame cameras.Thereare also increasing numbers of users using DSLRs for filming and HighDefinition (HD) video and manual focus lenses allows the user to alterfocus during filming, and hence why the VDSLR versions were developed.Thefocus ring features toothed rings compatible with professional gearedfollow focus systems available in the film industry and likewise atoothed, decoupled (de-clicked) aperture ring. Such modifications allowfor smooth and precise control over focus and aperture during videorecording / filming. This allows for ultimate manual control of focusand exposure when filming from one scene to another with different lightsource intensities, such as changing exposure values (EVs) from insideto outside, or even in-camera fade ins etc.The Samyang VDSLRversions can be used in still photography as well as for video purposes.There are increasing numbers of users using DSLRs for filming and HighDefinition (HD) video and manual lenses allows the user to change focus(focus pulling) and aperture during filming.The Samyang 85mm T1.5 lens should be a serious consideration toall professional or amateur photographers requiring a fast prime lens,regardless of budget. When the low cost of the lens is considered itshould not be overlooked for amateur use, or as a primary or secondarylens for professionals wanting a dedicated, high performing T1.5portrait lens.Available fittings: TBC.
