L'Odyss e du Petit Prince Justin, de Graham W. Still, explore les hauts et les bas de la nature et de la civilisation humaines. L'ouvrage fait ressortir la pr carit de notre existence, l'issue d'un chemin marqu par une f roce exploitation par l'homme, et de l'homme lui-m me, et de la nature, soumise son avidit et son avarice. Conte initiatique illustr , l'Odyss e, travers une s rie de paraboles imag es, d roule sa propre vision de l'univers, donnant voir comment les caract ristiques exclusives de l'esprit humain -capable aussi bien de cr ativit que de tromperie - est la veille de provoquer la destruction de l'humanit elle-m me. Donc, un h ros positif, peint sous les traits d'un na f de grand talent - le Petit Prince Justin - se voit recruter par de bienveillants extra-terrestres, avec pour mission de sauver la plan te - comme l'humanit elle-m me - des effets de ses propres turpitudes. Au deuxi me livre le Petit Prince Justin s'embarque pour sa mission en R alit bord d'une blanche colombe, symbole de l'Esprit de V rit . Une fois sur la plan te R alit - notre vieille Terre - ses facult s sur-humaines lui permettent de p n trer les coeurs et les cerveaux en lisant dans les pens es de tous et de chacun. Le voyage s'ach ve sur un v ritable d fi: d s son arriv e, le voici directement confront aux indig nes. Sa mission, la conversion de la 'R alit aux voies et moyens de la V rit , s'engage aussit t. Or, sa mission n'a de chance de r ussir que si, par l'argumentation tant en paroles qu'en actes, il parvient convaincre les Terriens d'amender leurs comportements. Son arsenal consiste en une R gle d'Or personnelle, sociale, et environnementale tir e de la litt rature philosophique, artistique, et politique de l'apog e de la de Gr ce Antique. Le livre plaide vigoureusement pour la r habilitation et la modernisation d'une forme d'enseignement classique - h las perdue depuis longtemps (ainsi que la forme sociale brillante qui en avait d coul ) - comme moyen de remise sur pied de la plan te et de la soci t . L'importance de cet ouvrage r side dans les questions qu'il soul ve, et la conviction que, sans doute, la cure - la mode Al th ienne - pour laquelle le Petit Prince Justin a t recrut et mandat , est elle-m me vici e la base et la limite dangereuse...

A medieval time travel adventure... "...With the determination and readiness of a morphine-addict, he stuck the needle into the quadriceps femoris muscle of his leg and threw the syringe on the floor. The golden medicine, the medicine of time reversal, was to water human flesh for the first time. He lay down. He waited, ready to travel into the fourth dimension. He waited for Science to guide him on the paths his own ancestors had followed in the past Time was passing, yet he did not feel anything unusual ... First he felt his hands and feet tingling. A warm sensation was coming up to his neck. Then, he felt numbness in his spine that slowly enveloped all of his body except for his head For a moment he thought he just had an anesthesia of the hands and feet. He felt as if he was a man with no body. He tried to look at his feet to be sure and then, with his own eyes, he saw something incredible - his own progressive disappearance First he was left with no legs, then with no thighs, with no hands and, finally, with no body Complete annihilation Perhaps death. Or maybe madness ..."

This seminal history of an English East Midland family takes us by generations from a 1939 country marriage back to 1042 Normandy, 1610 Virginia, the 1854 Sevastopol Siege, 1861 Sitapur during the Siege of Lucknow and to Passchendaele. It follows 19th and 20th century emigrations into Michigan, New Zealand and Australia. Lives, from birth to epitaph, are rebuilt from fully validated and referenced sources. Underpinned by a wealth of notes and observations drawn from national history, law, heraldry, etymology, classical mythology, literary and theological sources, it is uncompromisingly researched and written with humanity and humour - genealogy at its very best.
History of Banking in the United States: The Bank War: Vol.2
This book deals with the US history of banking in the 19th century. This volume is the continuation of the "History of banking in America - Vol.1", which dealt with the Beginning and Development of bank system in America (from 1630 to 1832). "If Jackson intended to open a war on the Bank, it is strange that he should have chosen a Pennsylvanian, Samuel Ingham, as Secretary of the Treasury. It fell to the lot of that gentleman to open the war on the institution, of which all Pennsylvanians were especially proud. After the report of the Investigating Committee on the Bank of the United States, in 1832, he published an apology for his own action in the matters which are about to be narrated, in which he said that, soon after he entered on the duties of his office, he heard the President make frequent declarations in conversation which showed that "he had imbibed strong prejudices against the United States Bank and was distinctly opposed to the existence of that institution," and that he (Ingham) was "appealed to as the head of the department charged with official intercourse between the government and the Bank for protection against what was termed the political abuses of that establishment. It was often stated to me that the branches in Louisiana and Kentucky had greatly abused their power for political purposes, not only in elections for the general government, but in State elections, from whence it was inferred that other branches had done the same elsewhere." The specification under this last head was the above mentioned interference in Kentucky, in 1825, which was asserted by Kendall, although, when he endeavored to obtain corroboration for it from his informant, he failed to do so. The "Louisville Advertiser," speaking from an inside knowledge of the management of the old court campaign of that year, contradicted the assertion that any aid had been given by the Bank of the United States, and the president and seven out of eight surviving directors of the Lexington Branch published affidavits denying that their bank had ever contributed to the funds of any political party. This one disputed allegation of fact was made to bear a tremendous superstructure of assertion, inference and conviction. Our narrative will now follow the order of events in time, although the facts were not known to the public until 1832..."

Cytochrome c fulfills a central role in biological electron transport. This book draws together information from diverse disciplines in order to provide a common base for further research. The comprehensive treatment of this subject does not neglect to show the diversity of biological respirations and photosyntheses. But it also defines their unifying principles. This overview presents the evolutionary relatedness in bioenergetic systems. Such systems are discussed at the experimental level with emphasis on the interpretation of results and the methodological approaches used. No other text provides a broad survey of this central area of biology. Researchers on cytochrome c are presented with information on the impact and importance of other disciplines on their area of investigation. Advanced students gain a balanced account of biological electron transport and will be encouraged to seek new directions of research.

Suurta huomiota “TOC” (Theory Of Constraints) piireissä saavuttanut alkuperäinen teos “Practice Makes Profit”, Graham W. Scott (2021) on nyt saatavilla suomennettuna.Jos olet kiinnostunut yrityksen fokusoidusta kehittämisestä, tämä kirja on sinua varten.Kirja kertoo tositarinan TOC (kapeikkoteorian) Jatkuvan Parantamisen Viiden Fokusoidun Askeleen soveltamisesta ihotautilääkärin yksityispraktiikan kehittämiseen. Tulokset ovat olleet häikäiseviä! Vaikka kirjan esimerkki koskee pienyritystä, on kirjassa esitettyä menetelmää mahdollista soveltaa menestyksellisesti kaikkiin liiketoimintoihin. Yhden kokeneen kehittäjän ensikommentti: “Toc Askeleet kirja on kyllä huippu, lisäksi tässä suomenkielisessä on hyvät kuvat ja parempi visuaalinen ilme!“Laatu- ja Lean kouluttajana vuosikymmeniä toimineen kirjan suomennoksen esilukija Jussi Moision selkärankareaktio oli “Tässä on ytyä!Tämän kirjan filosofialla on paljon annettavaa suomalaisen työn tuottavuuden kehittämiselle.Tasa-arvoa korostavassa demokratiassamme on vaikeaa ja jopa intuition vastaista hyväksyä, että jotkin asiat ja niiden hallinta ovat ratkaisevasti tärkeämpää muuhun verrattuna. Näin kuitenkin on asianlaita, vääjäämättömästi. Tämä mielen kehikko kaipaa remonttia, jota kirjan menetelmäpuoli tarjoaa.Ajatus, että toiminnan tuottavuuden parantaminen on täysin “kaluttu luu” on hyvin virheellinen ja yritysjohto syyllistyy tahtomattaan tähän yleisesti. Tämä virhe näyttäytyy mielenkiinnon ja sitoutumisen puutteena ja toiminnan “tylsä” kehittäminen delegoidaan usein alemmille organisaatiotasoille, ilman todellista toimivaltaa.Jos olet yritysjohtajana tai kehittäjänä aidosti kiinnostunut tuottavuuden ja virtaustehokkuuden parantamisesta, uskon, että yllätyt tämän pienen nopealukuisen kirjan annista. Se saattaa aiheuttaa jopa “aivomyrskyn”. Näin on jo monelle kirjan lukeneelle tapahtunut.Soveltamalla kirjassa esitettyjä periaatteita kymmenet tuhannet yritykset ympäri maailmaa ovat 80-luvulta lähtien parantaneet nopeasti ja merkittävästi suorituskykyään. Miksei myös sinun organisaatiosi?Parhaimmillaan kirjan menetelmien ja uuden mielenmaiseman soveltaminen Jatkuvan Parantamisen systemaattisena prosessina luovat organisaatiolle aivan uusia kilpailuetutekijöitä, jotka ovat puhtaan operatiivisen suorituskyvyn parantamisen tuolla puolen.
A Compendium of Partial Differential Equation Models

A Compendium of Partial Differential Equation Models

Mathematical modelling of physical and chemical systems is used extensively throughout science, engineering, and applied mathematics. To use mathematical models, one needs solutions to the model equations; this generally requires numerical methods. This book presents numerical methods and associated computer code in Matlab for the solution of a spectrum of models expressed as partial differential equations (PDEs). The authors focus on the method of lines (MOL), a well-established procedure for all major classes of PDEs, where the boundary value partial derivatives are approximated algebraically by finite differences. This reduces the PDEs to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and makes the computer code easy to understand, implement, and modify. Also, the ODEs (via MOL) can be combined with any other ODEs that are part of the model (so that MOL naturally accommodates ODE/PDE models). This book uniquely includes a detailed line-by-line discussion of computer code related to the associated PDE model.

Cytochromes c are haemoproteins which carry out electron transfer in a wide variety of biological systems, necessitating different kinds of cytochrome c to fulfill different biological roles. The evolutionary relationship between cytochromes c and their host organisms are described, as well as their structural, spectroscopic and redox properties, including both electron-transfer rates and redox potentials. The treatment is aimed at the non-specialist so that both the techniques described and their application to cytochromes c can be understood. All classes of cytochrome c are dealt with to provide a comprehensive account of the field. No other text provides such a broad survey. Similar to the earlier volume "Cytochromes c: Biological Aspects" which deals with the classification, biosynthesis and biological role of cytochromes c, the present book is aimed at research workers and advanced students.

The increasing concentration of atmospheric CO2 is now a problem of global concern. Although the consequences of atmospheric CO2 are still evolving, there is compelling evidence that the global environmental system is undergoing profound changes as seen in the recent spike of phenomena: extreme heat waves, droughts, wildfires, melting glaciers, and rising sea levels. These global problems directly resulting from elevated atmospheric CO2, will last for the foreseeable future, and will ultimately affect everyone.The CO2 problem is generally not well understood quantitatively by a general audience; for example, in respect of the increasing rate of CO2 emissions, and the movement of carbon to other parts of Earth's environmental system, particularly the oceans with accompanying acidification. This book therefore presents an introductory global CO2 mathematical model that gives some key numbers — for example, atmospheric CO2 concentration in ppm and ocean pH as a function of time for the calendar years 1850 (preindustrial) to 2100 (a modest projection into the future). The model is based on seven ordinary differential equations (ODEs), and is intended as an introduction to some basic concepts and a starting point for more detailed study.Quantitative insights into the CO2 problem are provided by the model and can be executed, with postulated changes to parameters, by a modest computer. As basic calculus is the only required mathematical background, this model is accessible to high school students as well as beginning college and university students. The programming of the model is in Matlab and R, two basic, widely used scientific programming systems that are generally accessible and usable worldwide. This book can therefore also be useful to readers interested in Matlab and/or R programming, or a translation of one to the change.
