Franchising: The Promise and the Peril

Franchising: The Promise and the Peril

Dennis L. Foster

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2018
nidottu
Franchise businesses are currently undergoing sweeping and dramatic changes from financial, social, cultural, and demographic influences. The largest chains are restructuring their business models to adapt. Recent regulations, exemptions, and court decisions have radically changed the legal, financial, and relationship between franchisors and franchisees. For every ten new outlets that open each year, eight existing outlet go out of business. Over-expansion threatens the outlook of franchisors as well as franchisees. The looming Demographic Cliff will radically transform franchise business models in every category. Franchising: The Promise and the Peril is the most up-to-date revelation of the state of franchising, delving into the crucial issues confronting prospective franchise buyers today, while focusing on regulatory, socioeconomic, financial, and demographic challenges never before experienced in modern history.

Places in the Heat

Places in the Heat

Dennis L. Foster

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2018
nidottu
Swim with man-eating sharks in treacherous ocean passes, wander through lost civilizations on high desert plateaus, leap off high cliffs over awe-inspiring waterfalls, hike through forbidding jungles on sparsely civilized isles, choke on volcanic fumes inside smoking calderas, wander among lions in the African long grass, and tiptoe along mountain walls on half-inch-wide ledges. As Dennis Foster tells it, traveling in hot places is adventurous, but not always intentionally so. It's also often humorous, but never intentionally so. It's sometimes hazardous, both to the adventurer and to the fragile ecosystem of the island, desert, mountain, rain forest, green shallow, or blue depth where the adventurer happens to venture.

Global Physical Climatology

Global Physical Climatology

Dennis L. Hartmann

Elsevier Science Publishing Co Inc
2015
sidottu
Global Physical Climatology, Second Edition, provides an introduction to the science of climate and climate change that spans the atmosphere, ocean, and land surface, and the interactions among them. It begins with a basic introduction to the climate system, and then introduces the physics of the climate system, including the principles and processes that determine the structure and climate of the atmosphere, ocean, and land surface. More advanced topics apply the basic knowledge introduced to understanding natural variability of the climate in both the present and past, the sensitivity of climate to external forcing, explanations for the ice ages, and the science of human-induced climate change. The physical principles and computer models necessary for understanding past climate and predicting future climate are also discussed. This book is recommended for upper division undergraduates and graduates in meteorology, atmospheric science, oceanography, and other environmental fields. It is also suitable for students with a background of at least one year of college physics and calculus as well as researchers in academia, government (military, NOAA, NWS), and policymakers.

Survival of the Virtuous

Survival of the Virtuous

Dennis L. Krebs

OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS INC
2023
sidottu
Do good guys finish last? Did we evolve to look out for number one? Are we bad by nature? At first glance, the theory of evolution seems to imply that all organisms are evolved to be selfish. In this book, evolutionary psychologist Dennis Krebs explains how virtuous behaviors such as altruism, justice, honesty, loyalty, self-control, purity, and respect for authority, have evolved in humans and other species. He argues that the key to solving puzzles of morality--such as what it is, how we acquire moral traits, why we sometimes behave badly, and how we make moral decisions--lies in figuring out what adaptive functions moral traits served in early human environments and how they are influenced by social learning, culture, and strategic social interactions in the modern world. Arguing that the primary function of virtuous behaviors is to enable individuals to advance their own interests and examining the moral decision-making mechanisms that evolved to serve these functions, this book considers the "new brain" mechanisms that are unique to humans and "old brain" mechanisms that we share with other species, illuminating how these work in conjunction with each other to guide our moral choices. Survival of the Virtuous is accessibly written for academic and scholarly readers interested in understanding how moral traits evolved in the human species.

Forgotten Warriors

Forgotten Warriors

Dennis L. Noble

Praeger Publishers Inc
1992
sidottu
A multitude of literary and cinematic works were spawned by the Vietnam war, but this is a unique book, combining moving prose with powerful illustrations created by combat artists in the U.S. military. Dr. Noble has assembled a remarkable collection of 153 reproductions printed in black and white, arranged with oral histories, letters and other commentaries to give the reader a more intimate understanding of the combat soldier who served in Vietnam and what he had to endure. Forgotten Warriors is not intended to argue the merits of U.S. involvement in Southeast Asia. Rather, through the visual impact of the illustrations, the soldiers themselves express what the Vietnam experience was like in a way that is different and more profound than perhaps any other work on the subject.The main focus of the book is on the way artists saw the world of the grunt: patrols, life in the rear, fighting the terrain and weather, tests of endurance, the machines of war and the effects of combat and its aftermath. The reader is also given a sense of how some writers and artists felt about the country and the people of South Vietnam. To date, our perceptions of the Vietnam war have been influenced largely by movies, television and novels. Recognizing this, Dr. Noble enlisted Professor William J. Palmer, a noted authority on the media and their reportage fo the war, to provide an essay that allows the reader to compare his or her past impressions with the art works contained in this book. A moving collection, Forgotten Warriors offers the truest picture of the Vietnam war in human terms.

The Education of Eros

The Education of Eros

Dennis L. Carlson

Routledge
2013
nidottu
The Education of Eros is the first and only comprehensive history of sexuality education and the “problem” of adolescent sexuality from the mid-20th century to the beginning of the 21st. It explores how professional health educators, policy makers, and social and religious conservatives differed in their approaches, and battled over what gets taught about sexuality in schools, but all shared a common understanding of the adolescent body and adolescent desire as a problem that required a regulatory and disciplinary education. It also looks the rise of new social movements in civil society and the academy in the last half of the 20th century that began to re-frame the “problem” of adolescent sexuality in a language of rights, equity, and social justice. Situated within critical social theories of sexuality, this book offers a tool for re-framing the conversation about adolescent sexuality and reconstructing the meaning of sexuality education in a democratic society.

The Colonial Origins of Korean Enterprise

The Colonial Origins of Korean Enterprise

Dennis L. McNamara

Cambridge University Press
2006
pokkari
South Korean conglomerates, or 'chaebol,' such as Hyundai and Samsung, play a far more important role in the Korean economy than do comparable large firms in the US and Japanese economies. Despite the importance of the chaebol to the rapid postwar development of the Korean economy, little has been written about their origins during the Japanese occupation. Through case studies of local ownership in major financial, commercial, and industrial ventures, this book provides a detailed picture of indigenous capitalism during Japanese colonization. Drawing on Japanese government sources, Korean biographies and diaries, interviews and US intelligence material, the author gives a compelling account of key personalities in the Korean business elite and of the personal dilemmas of balancing nationalism against success under dependent, colonial conditions. The author concludes that dependent rather than comprador capitalism characterized leading Korean businesses through 1945. Patterns of concentration within family enterprises, close ties with the colonial state, and mutual support among a Korean inner circle of business leaders constitute a legacy of the colonial period important to the subsequent development of Korean conglomerates.

Goethe contra Newton

Goethe contra Newton

Dennis L. Sepper

Cambridge University Press
2003
pokkari
This book explains the background and rationale of the German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s notorious attack on Isaac Newton’s classic theory of white light and colors. Though the merits of Goethe’s color science, as advanced in his massive Zur Farbenlehre, have often been acknowledged, it has been almost unanimously proclaimed invalid as physics. How could Goethe have been so mistaken? In his book, Dennis Sepper shows that the condemnation of Goethe’s attacks on Newton has been based on erroneous assumptions about the history of Newton’s theory and the methods and goals of Goethe’s color science. By illuminating the historical background and the experimental, methodological, and philosophical aspects of Goethe’s work, the author shows that his color theory is in an important sense genuinely physical and that, as simultaneously poet, scientist, historian, and philosopher, Goethe managed to anticipate important twentieth-century research not only in the history and philosophy of science, but even in color science itself.
