Myth and History in the Historiography of Early Burma

Myth and History in the Historiography of Early Burma

Michael A. Aung-Thwin

Ohio University Press
1998
pokkari
After careful re-reading and analysis of original Old Burmese and other primary sources, the author discovered that four out of the five events considered to be the most important in the history of early Burma, and believed to have been historically accurate, are actually late-nineteenth and twentieth-century inventions of colonial historians caught in their own intellectual and political world. Only one of these is a genuine indigenous Burmese myth, but it too has been embellished by modern historians. The author discusses each of these five myths and concludes with an assessment of the current situation in Burma in the context of the new myths springing up today, thereby bringing the thirteenth century into the twentieth.
Parallel Processing for Scientific Computing

Parallel Processing for Scientific Computing

Michael A. (EDT) Heroux; Padma (EDT) Raghavan; Horst D. (EDT) Simon

Society for Industrial Applied Mathematics,U.S.
2006
pokkari
Scientific computing has often been called the third approach to scientific discovery, emerging as a peer to experimentation and theory. Historically, the synergy between experimentation and theory has been well understood: experiments give insight into possible theories, theories inspire experiments, experiments reinforce or invalidate theories, and so on. As scientific computing has evolved to produce results that meet or exceed the quality of experimental and theoretical results, it has become indispensable. Parallel processing has been an enabling technology in scientific computing for more than 20 years. This book is the first in-depth discussion of parallel computing in 10 years; it reflects the mix of topics that mathematicians, computer scientists, and computational scientists focus on to make parallel processing effective for scientific problems. Presently, the impact of parallel processing on scientific computing varies greatly across disciplines, but it plays a vital role in most problem domains and is absolutely essential in many of them.Parallel Processing for Scientific Computing is divided into four parts: The first concerns performance modeling, analysis, and optimization; the second focuses on parallel algorithms and software for an array of problems common to many modeling and simulation applications; the third emphasizes tools and environments that can ease and enhance the process of application development; and the fourth provides a sampling of applications that require parallel computing for scaling to solve larger and realistic models that can advance science and engineering.
The Unconscious Life of Organizations

The Unconscious Life of Organizations

Michael A. Diamond

Praeger Publishers Inc
1993
sidottu
This book offers a contemporary psychodynamic view of organizational life. Michael Diamond stresses the unconscious dimensions of hierarchic and other work relationships in organizations. From these relationships, he argues, come not only organizational cultures but also organizational identities. The book transcends the common technical rational approach to organizational behavior by isolating and then analyzing the nonrational side of organizational experience. Diamond illustrates how different characteristics of organizational life emerge from the dynamics of shared and projected emotions between leaders and followers, managers and subordinates, and among workers. The author suggests that these complementary unconscious feelings anchor the definition of organizational membership in interpersonal relationships at work. The result is, what he calls, the emotionally grounded structure of organizations--the organizational identity. What distinguishes this book from other psychodynamic approaches to organizations are the following: (1) an up-to-date synthesis of object relations, self psychology, and interpersonal psychoanalysis based primarily but not exclusively on the work of Melanie Klein, Donald Winnicott, Heinz Kohut and Harry Stack Sullivan; (2) a discussion of psychoanalytic organization theory and the application of psychodynamic concepts in organizational behavior; (3) a psychodynamic critique of organizational culture, the structure of values and rituals at work, and the introduction of the structure of organizational emotions, what the author calls organizational identity; (4) a psychoanalytic explanation and typology of regressive behavior in work groups; (5) a discussion and illustration of the role of language and communication in organizational consulting; and (6) a variety of case studies drawn from over ten years of organizational research and consulting. Finally, this book offers the organizational theorist and consultant a variety of psychodynamic tools to apply in understanding and positively changing organizations. This book will be of interest to organizational development consultants, human resource professionals, organizational theorists and researchers, organizational psychologists and psychodynamically oriented social and behavioral scientists, and psychologically informed managers and executives.
Meaning and Appreciation

Meaning and Appreciation

Michael A. Weinstein

Purdue University Press
1978
sidottu
The great crisis of twentieth-century philosophy has been the loss of meaning as a criterion for conduct. With the collapse of the historical sociologies of the nineteenth century and their replacement by relativistic doctrines, contemporary thought has retreated to the fleeting present moment as the ground for describing action. In Meaning and Appreciation, Michael Weinstein traces the history of the failure of historical meaning, showing how the disappearance of collective purpose has altered our sense of time and made us aware that we are the creators of our time perspectives. Drawing upon the vitalistic tradition of Bergson, Weinstein returns to the intuition of the durée and argues that beneath practical life, we are rooted in successive lived presents. Weinstein identifies the lived present with appreciation, arguing that the life of expression, not nihilism, lies beyond the wreckage of historical teleology. The climax of Weinstein's work is an original vision of human existence, in which our essence is to express one another to ourselves. Vindicating our intrinsic sociality against the abstract and mechanistic claims of both individualism and collectivism, the author argues that our destiny is not to project meanings into a symbolic future, but to attend to and care for one another in the present. Weinstein's sensitive analysis offers new insights into such contemporary movements as existentialism, the sociology of knowledge, and cultural philosophy, evaluating all of them in terms of the fundamental tension in our society.
Pollution Abatement Strategies in Central and Eastern Europe

Pollution Abatement Strategies in Central and Eastern Europe

Michael A. Toman

Resources for the Future Press (RFF Press)
1994
nidottu
Protecting environmental quality while pursuing economic development poses a particularly difficult challenge to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, where political and economic systems are changing rapidly following decades of environmental neglect and economic mismanagement. Advanced industrial nations also face difficult decisions about priorities and procedures for providing financial assistance to the region. In order to identify workable solutions, Pollution Abatement Strategies in Central and Eastern Europe investigates some of the leading pollution problems that these countries now face and examines the link between economic restructuring and environmental improvement. Contributors to the volume assess the changes in the region's environmental conditions likely to result from economic restructuring and the benefits that might arise from improvements. They also consider the design of effective environmental policies for economies in transition, including the need to introduce or reform basic economic, legal, and regulatory constructs. Comparisons of incentive-based versus command-and-control environmental policies suggest that, despite the difficulties in implementing them, incentive-based policy options are worth pursuing in Central and Eastern Europe.
Immortality

Immortality

IS IMMORTALITY HIDDEN WITHIN OUR DNA? Lawyer-researcher Michael A. Tewell says "YES " Our bodies die, but the law of information conservation states that information cannot be created or destroyed. If true, then is not our individuality the very expression of information we attain during our lifetime? How would evolution respond to a natural law that forbids the destruction of any information? Is not our individuality the child of this "unique information?" Like pieces of a puzzle, Michael A. Tewell uses scientific discoveries in human evolution, genetics, biophysics, neuroscience and quantum theory to build a theoretical model of what evolution may have created by adapting our genetic code to comply with the natural law of information conservation. But, be warned. Expect that what he has discovered will change your life Part scientific mystery, part personal memoir, IMMORTALITY: The Science of Forbidden Fruit follows the author back in time to his youth; to explore how the author came to envision a life after death without the need for religious faith. How did a near-death-experience transform a shy, six-year-old, who dreamed of a simple life of Christian faith, into a fearless trial lawyer, defender of the poor--and a religious skeptic? Is evolutionary immortality the "Forbidden Fruit" of science that Christianity has feared for so long? Make your own decision with IMMORTALITY: The Science of Forbidden Fruit

Ever wonder why you have those "waking dreams" before you wake up in the morning? Those dreams that are too vivid, too "real" to be just ordinary dreams? The dreams that take you back in time to places and events that could never have happened to you in THIS life? If you have, then you have likely experienced your past-life memories reawakening in your consciousness. This is how Reincarnation reveals itsself. Attorney-author Michael A. Tewell began having past-life dreams when he was a child. Now a retired criminal defense trial lawyer who dedicated 25-years to defending the poor and underprivileged with the Public Defender's Office in Florida, Tewell wants to share his unique insights into Reincarnation and rebirth of individuality with you. Once you open your mind to your past-life memories, your present life will never be the same.
