The Electronic Design Studio: Architectural Education in the
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McCullough, Malcolm / Mitchell, William J., PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), For centuries architects have carried out shape computations by hand, using informal procedures and the simplest of tools. Over the last two decades, however, they have made increasing use of more formal procedures executed by computers, a development that raises challenging questions of architectural theory and perplexing issues for those concerned with the future of architectural education. In four parts - theoretical foundations, electronic media in the design studio, information delivery systems for design, and knowledge based design systems - this book frames those issues and provides a diversity of perspectives on them. "The Electronic Design Studio "contains over thirty extensively illustrated contributions that discuss the experiences of universities in the United States, Europe, Japan, Israel, Canada, and Australia with computer-aided architectural (CAAD) design, articulate current theoretical and practical concerns, provide criticism of media and methods, and suggest directions for the future. Architectural educators and architects concerned with the effect of computer technology on the design process will find this book an indispensable reference. As a current review of the state of the art of CAAD and an overview of the major issues, this is the most comprehensive source available.
Anxiety Disorders in Adults: An Evidence-Based Approach to
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McLean, Peter D. / Woody, Sheila R., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Recently developed psychosocial treatments for anxiety disorders reflect the systematic influence of scientifically generated knowledge, and these new treatments yield strong results. Research in such areas as information processing, cognition, behavioral avoidance, and the physiological components of anxious arousal has increased our knowledge of mediators that cause and maintain anxiety disorders. The development of these new clinical tools is timely, as epidemiological studies now show that up to 25% of people will experience at least one anxiety disorder in their lifetime. Meanwhile, mental health care providers are increasingly pressured to limit the number of sessions and use demonstrably effective treatments. In this book, the authors review psychosocial treatments for anxiety disorders, focusing on the scientific basis and demonstrated outcomes of the treatments. Cognitive behavioral therapies are highlighted, as they have been the most frequently investigated approaches to treating anxiety disorders. Individual chapters feature specific phobias: social phobia, panic disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder. The book is rich in clinical material and integrates science and clinical practice in an effort to help practitioners to improve the effectiveness of their work with anxious clients.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ozick, Cynthia, PUBLISHER: Atlantic, "An absorbing achievement... A nimble, entertaining literary homage, but it is also, chillingly, what James would have called 'the real thing.'"--"New York Times Book Review" Cynthia Ozick is a literary treasure. In her sixth novel, she retraces Henry James's "The Ambassadors" and delivers a brilliant, utterly new American classic. At the center of the story is Bea Nightingale, a fiftyish divorced schoolteacher whose life has been on hold during the many years since her brief marriage. When her estranged, difficult brother asks her to travel to Europe to retrieve a nephew she barely knows, she becomes entangled in the lives of his family. Over the course of a few months she travels from New York to Paris to Hollywood, aiding and abetting her nephew and niece while waging a war of letters with her brother, and finally facing her ex-husband to shake off his lingering sneers from decades past. As she inadvertently wreaks havoc in their lives, every one of them is irrevocably changed. "Raucous, funny, ferocious, and tragic. A literary master, as James was, Ozick makes all those qualities fit together seamlessly, and with heartbreaking effect."--"Philadelphia Inquirer" "Dazzling, even masterful."--"Entertainment Weekly"

Khosravi-Far and colleagues, analyzes the functional role of Ras in signal transduction and the involvement that Rho family proteins have on Ras. Mark Saville and Roger Watson review supporting evidence that B-Myb may be a critical regulator of the cell cycle. S. Baylin and co-authors compare DNA methylation in normal cells with that in cancerous cells and discuss the specific consequences associated with tumor progression. Last, Steven Grant discusses the use of ara-C as a treatment for various types of cancer and summarizes its cellular metabolism, mode of action and resistance, and the molecular events involved in apoptosis.

The Idea of Race in Latin America:
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Graham, Richard, PUBLISHER: University of Texas Press,.,."an important contribution to the far too limited literature on race and racialist thinking in Latin America." -- Hispanic American Historical Review From the mid-nineteenth century until the s, many Latin American leaders faced a difficult dilemma regarding the idea of race. On the one hand, they aspired to an ever-closer connection to Europe and North America, where, during much of this period, "scientific" thought condemned nonwhite races to an inferior category. Yet, with the heterogeneous racial makeup of their societies clearly before them and a growing sense of national identity impelling consideration of national futures, Latin American leaders hesitated. What to do? Whom to believe? Latin American political and intellectual leaders' sometimes anguished responses to these dilemmas form the subject of The Idea of Race in Latin America. Thomas Skidmore, Aline Helg, and Alan Knight have each contributed chapters that succinctly explore various aspects of the story in Brazil, Argentina, Cuba, and Mexico. While keenly alert to the social and economic differences that distinguish one Latin American society from another, each author has also addressed common issues that Richard Graham ably draws together in a brief introduction. Written in a style that will make it accessible to the undergraduate, this book will appeal as well to the sophisticated scholar.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Boudreau, Tom / Boudreau, Thomas E., PUBLISHER: Greenwood Press, The role of the Secretary-General, as mandated in the Charter of the United Nations, is to enhance the capacity of the United Nations to maintain peace through the prevention and resolution of international conflict. Based on an in-depth understanding of both the pertinent articles of the Charter and the international reach of the Secretary-General's position, this volume examines and evaluates the diplomatic resources currently available to the Secretary-General in the area of crisis prevention, and recommends measures intended to further define the office's responsibilities and strengthen its preventive powers. An outline of the legal and political structure of the Secretary-General's authority, followed by a review of each of the five Secretaries-General's efforts with respect to the avoidance of international conflict from to presents information which demonstrates the need for improved preventive resources. Reforms instituted by Perez de Cuellar from to are applauded and examined in detail, as the study then turns its attention to the present status of the Secretary-General's position. Convinced that the prevention of international conflict will be well-served by increasing the office's direct involvement, Thomas E. Boudreau proposes a global system of conflict identification that will enable the Secretary-General position to fulfill its intended role. A select bibliography, general subject index, and appendixes which include relevant reference materials complete the work.
Building to Last: The Challenge for Business Leaders
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hutchinson, Colin, PUBLISHER: Earthscan Publications, The major challenge for companies is to create a business that will last. This means they will have to take seriously the issue of sustainable development, rather than simply having an environmental policy, conducting social or environmental audits or consulting the stakeholder. It requires more radical change; a thorough review of core values and purposes, with attention to the 'triple bottom line' of money, people and nature.Building to Last shows the way. Part One lays out the factors, including market trends and changing mindsets, which businesses will in future have to take into account. Part Two looks at some of the most enlightened steps so far taken by companies to preserve or enhance profitability while positioning themselves for the next century. The final part examines the different ways in which businesses can adopt principles of sustainability: independently, through industry associations, with those in their local community and through initiatives such as industrial ecology. It shows how businesses can manage the new challenges, monitor their performance and measure progress - towards solutions that will last.This is a useful guide for environmental managers, senior and middle managers and managers of SMEs; and an essential text for academics and students of business schools or courses.
R's Boat
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Robertson, Lisa, PUBLISHER: University of California Press, I wanted narrative to be a picture of distances ringed in purple. Then I wanted it to be electronic fields exempt from sentiment. Then I wanted it to be the patient elaboration of my senses. The boldly original Canadian poet Lisa Robertson has received high praise for the uncompromising intelligence and style of her poetry. In "R's Boat, " she brings us to the crossroads of poetry, theory, the body, and cultural criticism, where the quotidian and the metaphysical marry and invert. These poems bring fresh vehemence to Robertson's ongoing examination of the changing shape of feminism, the male-dominated philosophical tradition, the daily forms of discourse, and the possibilities of language itself. "R's Boat" interrogates subjective experience, philosophy, and closely observed phenomenon in lyric poems that are at once intimate and declamatory, slyly comic and poignant, classical and romantic. Praise for Lisa Robertson's "The Men: " "In "The Men," as in much of her work, Robertson makes intellect seductive; only her poetry could turn swooning into a critical gesture."-"Village Voice" "Robertson writes both from within and against the tradition-splitting, seeding, and suturing the cracks in each ideational edifice.... Her occupations with past forms lead not to a backward-looking poetry but forward to a fresh field of inquiry, an imaginatively created utopia."-"Boston Review"

The One-Straw Revolution: An Introduction to Natural Farming
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fukuoka, Masanobu / Korn, Larry / Lappe, Frances Moore, PUBLISHER: New York Review of Books, Call it "Zen and the Art of Farming" or a "Little Green Book," Masanobu Fukuoka's manifesto about farming, eating, and the limits of human knowledge presents a radical challenge to the global systems we rely on for our food. At the same time, it is a spiritual memoir of a man whose innovative system of cultivating the earth reflects a deep faith in the wholeness and balance of the natural world. As Wendell Berry writes in his preface, the book "is valuable to us because it is at once practical and philosophical. It is an inspiring, necessary book about agriculture because it is not just about agriculture." Trained as a scientist, Fukuoka rejected both modern agribusiness and centuries of agricultural practice, deciding instead that the best forms of cultivation mirror nature's own laws. Over the next three decades he perfected his so-called "do-nothing" technique: commonsense, sustainable practices that all but eliminate the use of pesticides, fertilizer, tillage, and perhaps most significantly, wasteful effort. Whether you're a guerrilla gardener or a kitchen gardener, dedicated to slow food or simply looking to live a healthier life, you will find something here--you may even be moved to start a revolution of your own.

Già dalle prime parole in aramaico, Cane si accorge che si tratta di una scoperta sbalorditiva: il manoscritto, che ha almeno duemila anni, contiene alcune rivelazioni che potrebbero mettere in serio dubbio i fatti narrati nella Bibbia. Ma appena il ritrovamento sta per essere reso pubblico, il professor Green, un esperto di aramaico incaricato di tradurre il manoscritto, viene trovato morto nella sua tenda, e della pergamena non c'è più traccia...
