Gavin Dougherty

2013
nidottu
After living in Southern California for 20 years, the author returned home to upstate New York to watch over his mother who was suffering from Alzheimer's disease. He and his brother did everything they could to keep her in familiar surroundings at home and avoid assisted living. They were successful until June 2009, two weeks short of her 80th birthday. Alzheimer's Moments documents her life, particularly those poignant and sometimes humorous experiences that occurred along the way, and the challenges of being a primary caregiver.Anyone who has found themselves in the caregiving role to an elderly person will be able to relate to these triumphs and frustrations. Sometimes funny, sometimes sad, always earnest, this is a first-hand account of what it's like to live with someone progressing through the stages of Alzheimer's disease.
Inspiration floats out of the ether & forms itself on a piece of paper in the strangest of ways.Within behind this mosaic cover are some symbolic semantics that may be indecipherable depending on the individual's perception of the frieze.

Alternative energy sources are becoming increasingly important in a world striving for energy independence, clean air, and a reprieve from global warming. Solar cells, wind power, and biofuels are some of the competing alternative energy sources hoping to gain a foothold in our future energy mix, and the economic advantages of these technologies are continually increasing as costs are reduced and efficiencies increased. Alternative Energy Technologies: An Introduction with Computer Simulations explores the science and engineering behind a number of emerging alternative energy technologies, including polymer solar cells, algae biofuels, and artificial leaves. It also addresses the environmental need for these technologies. However, unlike its predecessors, this book employs simple computer models implemented within spreadsheet environments to simulate different aspects of the alternative energy technologies and therefore teach the subject matter. This unique approach:Provides a dual introduction to alternative energy technologies and computer simulationElucidates the fundamental behaviors and complex interactions within the alternative energy systemsMakes computer simulation straightforward and accessible to readers with no prior programming experienceFeaturing investigative exercises that deepen understanding and inspire further research, Alternative Energy Technologies: An Introduction with Computer Simulations makes an ideal introductory textbook for undergraduate students and a valuable professional reference for experimental researchers.

As venture capital and industrial resources are increasingly poured into rapid advances in artificial intelligence, the actual usage and success of AI depends on a satisfactory experience for the user. UX will play a significant role in the adoption of AI technologies across markets, and AI and UX explores just what these demands will entail.Great effort has been put forth to continuously make AI “smarter.” But, will smarter always equal more successful AI? It is not just about getting a product to market, but about getting the product into a user’s hands in a form that will be embraced. This demands examining the product from the perspective of the user. Authors Gavin Lew and Robert Schumacher have written AI and UX to examine just how product managers and designers can best strike this balance. From exploring the history of the parallel journeys of AI and UX, to investigating past product examples and failures, to practical expertknowledge on how to best execute a positive user experience, AI and UX examines all angles of how AI can best be developed within a UX framework.The new world of AI necessitates an equally new UX lens through which to see all potential products. While massive inroads have created strides in AI technology, it must be accessible and easy to use for the consumer. Innovators in the field need to shift thinking from “it works” to “it works well,” which makes all the difference in increasing adoption. Let your users enhance your data, and let the UX of your product do the selling for you. AI and UX is your roadmap for the future. What You'll Learn Understand how the usage and success of AI depends on a great user experience Discover how technology can advance beyond “it works” to “it works well,” which subsequently increases its adoptionDetermine what ways can we let the users enhance the data to make AI better attuned to their needsRealize how you can make humans smarter in their interactions with AI Who This Book Is For Those interested in AI and future implications; these can be futurists, technophiles, or product designers and product managers working on AI products
This is a study of British agricultural policy since the war -- during a period which has seen the adoption of a comprehensive system of agricultural support which has seen the adoption of a comprehensive system of agricultural support which stands in marked contrast to the free trade policy adhered to for so long in the past. The policy of support has brought a substantial increase in the output of British agriculture, but it has imposed a heavy burden on the taxpayer and has often been the subject of controversy. Mr. McCrone considers the economic issues involved: he sets out the implications of the present policy and compares the role of agriculture in Britain with the part it plays in other countries; he analyses the contribution of agriculture to the balance of payments and considers the prospects for Britain's imported food supplies. This involved an analysis of the main sources of Britain's food supply and the likely effects of economic development both on the exporting countries and on other potential food importers. The effects of the European Common Market are considered and the British system of support is contrasted with that used in other European countries. The book concludes with an assessment of the prospects for British agriculture and the part required of it in the national economy.
