Overview: Offers a novel practice-theoretical model of reflexive leadership in inter-organisational networks.Addresses how member organisations can lead their networks in a reflexive way.Provides findings and a.In view of the rising importance and prevalence of network-based collaboration, this book aims to meet the need for more theory in this area. Theoretically conceptualizing and empirically describing the practice of reflexive leadership in inter-organisational networks, it explores how member organisations approach reflexive leadership and the associated challenges. Examining these quest

Overview: Demonstrates how shifts in housing policy, and broader political, economic and social developments, came to bear on a working-class community.Examines the rise and fall of the Aylesbury Estate from th.This book looks beyond the Aylesbury’s public face by examining its rise and fall from the perspective of those who knew it, based largely on the oral testimony and memoir of residents and former residents, youth and community workers, borough Councillors, officials, police officers and architects. What emerges is not a simple story of definitive failures, but one of texture and complex

Overview: A unique contemporary programming for absolute beginners book that uses Assembly.Teaching programming using Assembly makes it easier to learn higher level languages later.Assembly programming remains Many programmers have limited effectiveness because they don‘t have a deep understanding of how their computer actually works under the hood.  In Learn to Program with Assembly, you will learn to program in assembly language - the language of the computer itself. .Assembly language is often thought of as a difficult and arcane subject.  However, author Jonathan Bartlett presents the mate

Overview: In the two decades since the development of the first eclipsing-binary modeling code, new analytic techniques and the availability of powerful, sometimes dedicated computing facilities have made possible vastly improved determinations of fundamental and even transient stellar parameters. The scale of these developments, of course, raises questions about modeling tools, techniques, and philosophies, such as: Who will maintain and upgrade the codes? Will the codes be open to improvement by outsiders, and if so, how? And, indeed, what should be the goals of a modeling program? Such ques

Overview: Bilingual book describing real analytic solutions for the “Disc with Circular Inclusion”In this book the real analytic solutions for the “Disc with Circular Inclusion” under normal- and shear force at plane-strain state (EVZ) are presented. The associated solution process, which was developed according to the principle of statically indeterminate systems, is documented extensively. The solutions are given in terms of mechanical quantities (deformations, strains and stresses). Due to the superposition of the solutions for normal force in x- and y-direction and shear force the plane st

Overview: The possibility of initiating chemical reactions by high-intensity laser exci­ tation has captured the imagination of chemists and physicists as well as of industrial scientists and the scientifically informed public in general ever since the laser first became available. Initially, great hopes were held that laser-induced chemistry would revolutionize synthetic chemistry, making possible "bond-specific" or "mode-specific" reactions that were impos­ sible to achieve under thermal equilibrium conditions. Indeed, some of the early work in this area, typically employing high-power conti

Overview: Puts forth the concept of the best-loved self as a key component of teacher identity.Includes examples of collaborative research across schools, districts, and universities.Recounts the history and acThis book explores the concept of the "best-loved self" in teaching and teacher education, asserting that the best-loved self is foundational to the development of teacher identity, growth in context, and learning in community. Drawing on the work of Joseph Schwab, who was the first to name the "best-loved self," the editors and their contributors extend this knowledge further through th

Overview: Covers a wide range of topics associated with Lie groups: symmetric functions, theory of algebraic forms, lie groups and lie algebras, tensor algebra and symmetry, semisimple lie algebras, algebraic g.Lie groups has been an increasing area of focus and rich research since the middle of the 20th century. Procesi‘s masterful approach to Lie groups through invariants and representations gives the reader a comprehensive treatment of the classical groups along with an extensive introduction to a wide range of topics associated with Lie groups: symmetric functions, theory of algebraic form

Overview: Zur historischen Herausbildung US-amerikanischer CorporationsDiese organisationstheoretisch strukturierte Dokumentation präsentiert bisher unbekanntes empirisches Material (Gerichtsfälle) bezüglich der Entstehung der legal person, dem US-amerikanischen Pendant zur „Juristischen Person“.
