Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study is the first empirical look at antecedents and consequences of relationships with executive search firms and the increasingly important role headhunters play in the allocation of executive talent to available positions. A web-based survey was used to collect data from 701 executives who were subscribers to a career placement database maintained by an international association of executive search firms. These executives worked in a variety of industries and functional areas around the United States and earned a minimum annual salary of $100,000. Results suggest that certain networking behaviors and human capital characteristics explain how individuals become identified and involved in relationships with executive search professionals and that these relationships contribute positively to current salary, career promotions, and perceived career success. These findings provide evidence of the important role that executive search firms play in the identification and allotment of executive talent. Additionally, the data provide a basis for understanding how executive search firm relationships are developed and their instrumental value in executive career attainment. 116 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In the postmodern era, language is often dissociated from its user, and playfully generates meaning. This book clearly shows how Jacques Derrida deconstructs Western thought which he calls logocentrism, and how his deconstruction brings about the self-engendering and self-expressive function of language. With regard to Derrida s deconstruction, this book delves into William Faulkner s novels. Mosquitoes (1927), The Sound and the Fury (1929) and Absalom, Absalom! (1936), among others, reveal Faulkner s view of language that language does not simply represent the object but engages in creative self-expression. Mosquitoes exposes Faulkner s basic thoughts about art and language through the conversations of the people who are gathered for Mrs. Maurier s yacht party. The Sound and the Fury and Absalom, Absalom! lay bare the space of text where meanings are, not governed by the unified system, but produced through the free play of language. 188 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book is made of different research problems which have in common the presence of latent variables. In the first part undirected and directed graphical models are considered and in the case of Gaussian continuous variables the author shows that the specification of a complex multivariate distribution through univariate regressions induced by a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) can be regarded as a simplification. The Expectation-Maximization algorithm is considered for the maximum likelihood estimation of the model parameters and the author illustrates a method for obtaining an explicit formula of the observed information matrix by using the missing information principle. An essential background on the latent class model is given and its extension to study latent changes over time. The hidden Markov model is presented consisting of hidden states and observed variables both varying over time. The latent class cluster model is extended by proposing a latent model which also incorporates the longitudinal structure of the data by using a local likelihood approach. Some examples illustrate the use of the models in the social sciences. A detailed bibliograhy is provided. 144 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Instructors of introductory physics courses expect that students will be able to apply what they have learned in previous mathematics courses to what they are learning in introductory mechanics. Once they have completed introductory mechanics they will be able to apply the conceptual and procedural knowledge developed in mechanics to the learning of electricity and magnetism. Fulfillment of these expectations requires that students transfer knowledge obtained in previous courses to different contexts in subsequent courses. However, there is little agreement among education researchers about the mechanism of transfer from one context to another and about how to measure transfer. This study describes an initial investigation into transfer across contexts in introductory physics, and into the measurement of transfer. The first part of this book describes an investigation we have conducted to better understand the extent to which students transfer knowledge from math to physics, concentrating on the mathematics of proportional reasoning that is ubiquitous in introductory physics courses. Results suggest that many students do not have the level of preparation expected by their instructo 80 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The work presented in the Book entitled Study on Metalloporphyrins can be summarized in analytical and physical data; spectral data are compatible with the suggested structures. The complexes are colored, stable in air and insoluble in H2O, ethanol and non-polar solvents such as benzene. However, they dissolve in polar solvents such as DMF and DMSO. IR spectra of the complexes were recorded to confirm their structures. The assignments of the characteristic vibrational frequencies of the complexes were made by comparison with the vibrational frequencies of the free ligand. The ligand behaved as neutral tetradentate ligand coordinating through the four imine nitrogens. In all Complexes the signals of the imine groups were merged together and shifted to lower wave number accompanied by a decrease in their intensities, indicating they are involved in complex formation. The UV Vis absorption spectrum of the complexes shows single d d transition band in the 554-545 nm range as expected for a square planar copper(II) environment with similar N4 donor tetradentate Schiff base. 1H NMR studies of porphyrin reveal the aromatic nature of the porphyrin macrocycle. 60 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The storage vendors have their own standards for the management of their storage resources but it creates interoperability issues on different storage products. With the recent advent of the new protocol named Storage Management Initiative-Specification (SMI-S), the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) has taken a major step in order to make the storage management more effective and organized. SMI-S has replaced its predecessor Storage Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and it has been categorized as an ISO standard. The main objective of the SMI-S is to provide interoperability management of the heterogeneous storage vendor systems by unifying the Storage Area Network (SAN) management, hence making the dreams of the network managers come true. SMI-S is a guide to build systems using modules that ¿plug¿ together. SMI-S compliant storage modules that use CIM ¿language¿ and adhere to CIM schema interoperate in a system regardless of which vendor built them. SMI-S is object-oriented, any physical or abstract storage-related elements can be defined as a CIM object. SMI-S can unify the SAN management systems and it works well with the heterogeneous storage environment. 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The phenomenon of interplanetary scintillation is an effective tool to study the solar activity. The technique involves observation of radio signals from a distant compact source propagating through the IPM. These waves from the radio source are scattering by density irregularities in the interplanetary plasma to produce a two dimensional intensity pattern on the ground. The pattern moves because of the relative velocity of the solar wind and the earth and is observed as intensity scintillations by a radio telescope. The study of IPS activity is also of practical importance, as major solar activity often results in geomagnetic disturbances which disrupt radio communication and pose radiation hazards to astronauts on space missions. For these reasons it is important to understand interplanetary activity over all possible scales and study its relation to the solar and geomagnetic activity. The existing IPS observations, however, have been more suited to study long time scale interplanetary activity. The radio telescope at Rajkot used for the present investigations consists of a full wave dipole antenna array, correlation receiver, and analogue and digital data recording devices. 60 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Dr. Harlan has described her 2013 qualitative study of older adults engaged in later life career transitions. Their problem lay with recognizing turning points in their lives and discerning physical, emotional, and professional factors that provided enablement for changing trajectory in later life. Often, that meant silencing the internalized, socially-influenced voices that whispered, or sometimes screamed, words of disabling discouragement. It meant becoming aware of their authentic self and finding flow between the demands of transition and their resources for transition. Timing held relevance for the importance of this study. Baby Boomers are experiencing factors and turning points explored in this study. Study participants described later life as a vulnerable time to walk through career transition doors, but all had their eyes set on achievements lying beyond the doors. They had lived life long enough to know when something was meaningful and they were seeking ways to thrive, to make the greatest contribution to society through their career transitions. 220 pp. Englisch.

Australia has been at the forefront in developing initiatives to combat this problem. People of all ages still go missing, and for the families of those who disappear, the loss is traumatic. Research on the families of long-term missing persons, to this point, has been limited. Therefore, familial experience is not well understood. Little is known of the trauma, loss and grief associated with a missing person within these families. The findings of this study highlight the need for a biopsychosocial framework to understand the ways in which families experience the psychological presence of a person who is physically absent. This framework acknowledges that a person goes missing from a particular social context and that the ambiguity of the loss and the grief the family experiences does not lessen the continuing bond they share with their loved one. 200 pp. Englisch.

The study sets out to examine and document the nature of the conversation between soldiers and corps members on camp, and to demonstrate that power is linked to language in the utterance of soldiers to corps members on camp. The data used for the analysis are the conversational exchanges between soldiers and corps members as recorded during orientation camps in Kaduna and Abuja camps respectively. The analysis employed the Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) framework. Specifically the Fairclough (1989) model of analysis was used. Fairclough s model of CDA has three components: description, interpretation and explanation. These three components were the analytical procedure employed to explicate the different contexts in which the relationship between soldiers and corps members on camp is laced with unequal power. The study found out that Critical Discourse Analysis is an interdisciplinary area of study which encapsulates other linguistic studies such as Pragmatics, Semantics, Sociolinguistics, Phonology and Grammar. 100 pp. Englisch.

This decomposition results in the release of trapped resources back into the soil. Termites thus play an important ecological role in the environment. On the other hand feeding on cellulose-containing materials such as wood used in construction, results in major structural damage. The social organization of termites is very impressive and so is their uncanny ability to communicate information to enable the colony to avoid unfavorable conditions such as pesticides. Proper use of termiticides requires an understanding of termite social structure and behavior before and after contamination with insecticides. Lack of this knowledge has led to a number of treatment failures. Killing the queen termite (who lays the eggs) is the goal but this requires that treated foragers remain healthy enough to travel back to her in the central nest. This book addresses the dearth of information on the progressive behavioral changes that occur from the time of contact with insecticides until death of treated termites and also covers research-based information on behavior-based control of termites. 120 pp. Englisch.

STD chamber can emit higher soot emission due to large amount of injected fuel escape from piston bowl to the top clearance from early combustion stage and increase possibility of those fuel to be quenched. R35S chamber can keep the injected fuel remains under the squish lip for long time and restrain more fuel to be quenched at the top clearance. Benefit of using R35S is also extended for utilization of Biofuel. Waste Cooking Oil (WCO) with high density and kinematic viscosity have been tested. High turbulence combustion is effective to reduce SOF and THC emissions of neat WCO fuel at lower load as well as SOLID emission at high load. This is because high turbulence promotes spray droplets evaporation. Moreover, complex air motion reduces spray impingement on the wall, and most fuel burns completely by rapid combustion. 116 pp. Englisch.

Almost all of the world polities have either remained directly under terrorist attacks or have been suffering from its far reaching impacts. Media have been remarkably successful means of publicizing a political cause and relaying the terrorist threat to wider audience, particularly in the open and pluralistic countries of the West. The extensive, wide spread and prolonged coverage of the events like bombings in London in July, 2005 and March, 2004 attacks in Madrid were, many argue, have been more than sufficient for the ¿terrorists¿ to put across their message of terror and fear to large audiences.

His works mark a departure from the extremely privatist, euro-modernist and obscure trend of the early generation of Nigerian poets- Soyinka, Okigbo, Clark, Echeruo. His poetry raises a number of crucial social issues of local, national and international importance. His works are rich and innovative in literary and linguistic devices and point to new areas of manipulation of language that provide a challenge to linguists and literary critics. This book is an explication of Niyi Osundare's poetry within the three interdisciplinary orientations of stylistic devices, literary techniques and discourse strategies. The combination of these complementary analytical approaches in this book allows for an innovative exploration and evaluation of the poems beyond the purely linguistic, to determine the overall communicative effect of Osundare's poetry as well-structured pieces of literary discourse. The analysis should help shed light on the poetry of this most productive Nigerian poet, and should be especially useful to creative writers, students and scholars in language and literature. 272 pp. Englisch.
