Growing a Better America: Smart, Strong and Sustainable
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Leavell, Chuck / Craig, J. Marshall, PUBLISHER: Mercer University Press, Since the arrival of European settlers in the sixteenth century, America's population has grown to more than 310 million people and is expected to reach 400 million around the mid-s. Her lands have seen the rise of tens of thousands of cities; millions of homes, office buildings, and skyscrapers have been constructed, and rail and interstate highway systems now sprawl across the country. Over eighty thousand planes fly through her skies every day; her soils have been plowed repeatedly, and she has suffered from dust bowls, erosion, polluted air and water, and declining ecosystems. She is resilient, yet how much more can she take? In his fourth book, Growing a Better America, commonsense environmentalist Chuck Leavell helps us understand how we can repair some of the damage we've done and how, in the future, we can balance our need for growth with our need for natural lands, green spaces, clean air and water, and a healthy lifestyle.

Prodigium (serie completa di R.Hawkins)
Prodigium (serie completa): Incantesimo-Maleficio-Sortilegio-Magico (di R.Hawkins) Anno edizione: Formato: Tascabile Pagine: 729 p., Rilegato Trama: La sedicenne Sophie Mercer ha appena scoperto di essere una strega. Il suo primo incantesimo, però, finisce in un disastro. Sua madre decide allora di spedirla alla Hecate Hall, una scuola speciale dove ragazzi particolarmente dotati, i Prodigium, imparano a usare i loro poteri con discrezione e soprattutto lontano dagli occhi dei normali. Da un giorno all'altro Sophie viene catapultata tra streghe, mutaforma, maghi, licantropi, fate e vampiri. Come se non bastasse, una minaccia incombe sulla scuola: un'organizzazione segreta e potentissima, L'Occhio di Dio, vuole eliminare dalla faccia della terra tutti i Prodigium. E quando Sophie si rende conto di essere la prima della lista, le domande si affollano nella sua mente. Perché è finita nel mirino dell'Occhio? Quali sono i suoi reali poteri? E soprattutto, che genere di oscuri segreti nasconde la sua famiglia? "Incantesimo", "Maleficio" e "Sortilegio" sono i tre capitoli della serie che prosegue nello spin-off "Magico", in cui seguiamo le vicende della quindicenne Izzy Brannick, cacciatrice di mostri che all'improvviso si ritrova a vestire i panni di un'adolescente comune. A volte lasciarsi alle spalle il passato è molto più difficile di quel che sembra...
Pursuing a Promise: A History of African Americans at
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brooks, F. Erik, PUBLISHER: Mercer University Press, In Statesboro, Georgia, two schools coexisted: one white and the other black. Yet, these schools were intertwined by their geographical location and the traditions of the segregated South. There are many glaring similarities between the white students of Georgia Southern University's forerunner, the First District A&M School, and the black students of the Statesboro Industrial and High School. Yet as happened all too often in the South as implementation of the federal court's desegregation orders took shape, "Negro" schools were downgraded or outright closed. Statesboro was no different. While, First District A&M became a regional university, Statesboro Industrial and High School was downgraded to a junior high school. In , integration on the higher-education level at Georgia's flagship university captured national attention. Few works if any have examined desegregation in the context of non-flagship universities. Likewise, there is a misguided mythology that desegregation occurred quietly at Georgia Southern University: it's clear that while there was not the violence and rioting seen elsewhere in Southern universities, blacks were marginalized and did not feel welcome at the college. A passive group after the initial integration, blacks adopted tactics of protest and confrontation to empower themselves. Taking a page from the Civil Rights Movement, black students and faculty established organizations to confront discrimination and gain access to campus leadership positions. This is a story about the defeats, victories, struggles, and developments of blacks at Georgia Southern University.

Service Quality: Research Perspectives
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
