The Nature of Chaos in Business : Using Complexity to Foster Successful Global Alliances

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Market globalization is changing the way companies do business. It is now necessary for businesses to use mergers, joint ventures, and research consortia if they want to stay competitive and increase returns. The problem is that venturing into such partnerships has a substantial failure rate. In many cases, failure is due to poor preparation, inability to manage conflict, and simply being overwhelmed by the complexity of the partnership issues. The Nature of Chaos in Business offers answers to whysuch partnerships fail and how successful partnerships can be fostered through the complexity and supposed chaos of the situation. Based on models of complexity formulated and studied at the esteemed Santa Fe Institute, this guide demonstrates how complexity in business, as in nature, eventually falls into patterns. Through the recognition and use of these patterns, today`s businesses can leverage each other`s strengths into powerful alliances. The Nature of Chaos in Business… [detailed...]

The Nature of Difference: Sciences of Race in the United States from Jefferson to Genomics

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Nature of Difference documents how distinctions between people have been generated in and by the life sciences. Through a wide-ranging selection of primary documents and insightful commentaries by the editors, it charts the shifting boundaries of science and race through more than two centuries of American history. The documents, primarily writings by authoritative, eminent scientists intended for their professional peers, show how various sciences of race have changed their object of study over time: from racial groups to types to populations to genomes and beyond. The book`s thematic and synthetic approach reveals the profoundly diverse array of practices—countless acts of observation, quantification, and experimentation—that enabled the consequential categorizations we inherit. The documents—most reproduced in their entirety—range from definitions of race in dictionaries published between 1886 and 2005 to an exchange of letters between Benjamin Baneker and Thomas Jefferson,… [detailed...]

Mary Ludington
The Nature of Dogs

2007 y.
Publisher: Simon &, Schuster
Description: Animal photographer Ludington`s stunning collection of dog portraits, packaged in a tasteful coffee table format, is sure to win the hearts of dog lovers with its obvious yet understated reverence. Unlike other books of this type, Ludington`s portraits of well-known breeds such as the French Bulldog, Rhodesian Ridgeback and Dachshund treat the animals with a high degree of respect-no funny costumes, anthropomorphic asides or cloying sweetness here. Ludington`s candid shots-dogs in grass, snow, forest and river-are largely devoid of sentimentality, focusing instead on each animal`s unique spirit, an effect perhaps best exemplified in her study of the ghostly Greyhound, whose coiled potential for sudden, shocking speed gives its portraits a feeling of tension and transience. Each entry is augmented with a brief history of the breed and key characteristics, but the photographs rightfully take center stage. Unfortunately, the handful of essays scattered throughout don`t live up to the… [detailed...]

The Nature of Dwellings : The Architecture of David Hovey

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description David Hovey is building some of the best modernist houses in the world, and the world is starting to notice. Hovey has made a name for himself as the torchbearer for modern residential design, a designation he shares with a growing number of architects who`ve returned to pure modernism. His houses merge into the landscapes in which they`re situated, and with names like Cloud Chaser and Rain Maker, their ties to the land and climate are made clear. Hovey picks up where Frank Lloyd Wright left off, forging ahead with explorations of simple materials, rectilinear geometries, and structural innovation all in the service of free-flowing floor plans that merge indoor and outdoor into a cohesive whole. An extensive essay examines Hovey`s unorthodox approach to architecture and explains how he has managed to build a successful career by staying true to his modernist ideals. [detailed...]

The Nature of Economic Growth: An Alternative Framework for Understanding the Performance of Nations

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This concise book, now available in paperback, has been developed from a series of lectures given to masters students and will serve as an excellent introduction to the principles of growth and development theory. The author presents conventional wisdom with a critical eye and charts development economics as it has evolved from Adam Smith to ?new? or endogenous growth theory. Thirlwall is critical of the latter, and its predecessor neo-classical growth theory, and tries to put back demand as a driving force in growth theory. He argues that in an open developing economy one of the major constraints is the availability of foreign exchange to pay for imports, so that export growth which relaxes a balance of payments constraint on demand becomes a crucial determinant of overall growth performance. Demand creating its own supply in a growth context, rather than the pre-Keynesian view of supply creating its own demand, provides an alternative framework to the neo-classical one… [detailed...]

The Nature of Engineering Work in Innovation Activities: Analysing R

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This study is a research into firm level innovation activities and the role of the engineers in R&,D work. The innovation processes is tried to be explained as a mental labour process. In describing how an innovation occurs, two reference points are taken. The first one is the organization structure of the innovation processes. The second is the nature of engineering work in innovation activities. The theoretical context of the book will be based upon innovation literature in economics and the theory of innovation in labour process theory. As to our methodology, a process approach is pursued considering the research objective. With this aim, case studies are done within three companies in Turkey-one big, one middle size and one small-, which are professionally engaged in innovation activities in the automotive sector. A total of seven in-depth interviews are made with R&,D engineers of the corporations. These interviews together with the participant observations constitute the empirical… [detailed...]

The Nature of Macroeconomics: Instability and Change in the Capitalist System

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book, now available in paperback, addresses the long absence of a satisfactory theory of macroeconomics. Keynesian theory is not consistent with rational self-interest, but neo-classical economics is unable to explain economic volatility and the trade cycle. Athol Fitzgibbons critiques the leading macroeconomic theories, which he believes are unduly mechanistic because they are incompatible with non-quantitative knowledge. The author sketches the intellectual history of partial knowledge and judgement so far as these relate to macroeconomics, and rejects the claims that Keynes recanted the analysis of practical reason in his Treatise on Probability. Fitzgibbons?s theme is the possibility of a new synthesis of Keynes and the neoclassical system. This stresses financial rationality, but it also recognizes that there is an element of indeterminacy in both government policies and the movements of the market. [detailed...]

The Nature of Money

Publisher: —
Description: Mainstream economics fails to grasp the specific nature of money. It is seen either as a ?neutral veil? over the operation of the ?real? economy or alternatively as a ?thing? ? a special commodity. In this important new book, Geoffrey Ingham draws on neglected traditions in the social sciences to develop a theory of the ?social relation? of money. Money consists in socially and politically constructed ?promises to pay?. This approach is then applied to a range of important historical and analytical questions. The historical origins of money, the ?cashless? monetary systems of the ancient Near Eastern empires, the pre-capitalist coinage systems of Greece and Rome, and the emergence of capitalist credit-money are all given new interpretations. Capitalism?s distinctiveness is to befound in the social structure ? comprising complex linkages between firms, banks and states ? by which private debts are… [detailed...]

The Nature of Narrative: Revised and Expanded

2006 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: For the past forty years The Nature of Narrative has been a seminal work for literary students, teachers, writers, and scholars. Countering the tendency to view the novel as the paradigm case of literary narrative, authors Robert Scholes and Robert Kellogg in the original edition offered a compelling history of the genre narrative from antiquity to the twentieth-century, even as they carried out their main task of describing and analyzing the nature of narrative`s main elements: meaning, character, plot, and point of view. Their history emphasized the broad sweep of literary narrative from ancient times to the contemporary period, and it included a chapter on the oral heritage of written narrative and an appendix on the interior monologue in ancient texts. The fortieth anniversary edition of this groundbreaking work has been revised and expanded to include a new preface and a lengthy chapter on developments in narrative theory since 1966 by James Phelan. This chapter describes the… [detailed...]
