pokkari
Life is a school. And to those dedicated to lifetime learning, class is never out. Our short time on planet earth is brimming with opportunities to become our best selves. It doesn't matter who we are, where we are, or whatever we are doing, we are all subject to essential life lessons; it is a criteria for being a card-carrying member of the human race," says author J. Ian Henderson. "No one is exempt." What's Your Life Trying to Teach You? brings together a blend of storytelling, wit, and wisdom. This self-help guide mines a depth of experts on topics ranging from gratitude to grief and offers practical exercises and quotes from thinkers including Billy Graham and Mark Twain as well as humorists George Carlin and Robin Williams.With more than five decades experience in facilitating personal and professional development workshops, Henderson's aim is to connect with the world of lifetime learners interested in personal growth as an ongoing adventure. Often, that means breaking out of personal comfort zones and embracing the fact that growth can be messy and even a little uncomfortable. The reward of this lifetime journey is becoming the best versions of ourselves-not perfect, just best-on a daily basis.

Från det romerska torget till digitala valutor – hur har marknaden utvecklats under historiens gång och hur kan den komma att se ut i framtiden? Denna antologi gör en djupdykning i marknadsutvecklingen och tittar närmare på marknaders avgörande roll i att utforma samtiden men tar också upp den brännande frågan om hur vi ska navigera mot en hållbar framtid. I tankeväckande essäer skrivna av internationella forskare, politiker och andra sakkunniga utforskas marknadens dynamik. Med utgångspunkt i de antika torgen och i det medeltida Europas marknader undersöker författarna hur tekniska framsteg, konsumentbeteende och geopolitisk strategi – till exempel den politik som utövades under Reagan-eran – har format nutida marknader. Slutligen tar boken upp de utmaningar för stabiliteten på marknaden som utgörs av auktoritära stater och AI. Boken finns även i engelsk utgåva, The Market.

Training for Doctoral Research

Training for Doctoral Research

J IAN Mason

St Jerome Publishing
2009
sidottu
Following the rapid expansion of translation studies as an emergent (inter-)discipline over recent decades, demand for doctoral research opportunities is now growing fast in many countries. At the same time, doctoral training packages of a generic nature have been elaborated and refined at many universities, drawing on long traditions of doctoral research in established disciplines. A degree of consensus no doubt exists on such matters as the need for rigor, method and the generation of new knowledge. Beyond that, however, there are a host of issues specific to translation and interpreting studies that remain under-researched and under-discussed. Contributors to this special issue encourage reflection on a range of issues in ways that foster further debate and collaboration on the development of doctoral studies within the field. A number of concrete proposals are offered that could be adapted to local situations in different countries and academic settings. While some of the contributions adopt a mainly empirical stance, others adopt a broad perspective on training, citing examples of widely differing projects. Two contributors offer insights from personal experience of doctoral study while another describes the organization of doctoral work within the conceptual framework of a research group. All consider training from the angle of student needs and offer concrete suggestions for ensuring that doctoral candidates are equipped with the guidance, concepts, methods and tools required for success.

Hygiene und Infektionsprävention außerhalb von Krankenhäusern

J Ian Blenkharn

Verlag Unser Wissen
2023
pokkari
W hrend unseres gesamten Lebens sind wir dem Risiko einer Infektion durch eine gro e Vielfalt von Mikroorganismen ausgesetzt, vor denen wir m glicherweise kaum gewarnt werden oder mit denen wir nicht rechnen. Wenn wir neben einem Fremden mit einer schweren Erk ltung sitzen, von einem Insekt gestochen werden oder kontaminierte Lebensmittel oder Wasser zu uns nehmen, kann das einfach nur unangenehm sein oder der Beginn einer b sen Infektion. Bei einer berufsbedingten Infektion sollten die Umst nde besser vorhersehbar und weitgehend vermeidbar sein. In jedem Fall m chte niemand das Elend einer Infektion erleiden. Investitionen in die Pr vention lohnen sich. Die Beseitigung von Hygienem ngeln zur Vermeidung oder Vorbeugung von Infektionen kann Zeit und Geld sparen, die Produktivit t am Arbeitsplatz erh hen, Ausfallzeiten und Krankenst nde verringern und die Mitarbeiterbindung sichern. Au erhalb des Arbeitsplatzes ist die Pflege nicht weniger wichtig, da Hygienem ngel zu unangenehmen, aber vermeidbaren Infektionen f hren k nnen und auch f hren. Dieses Buch ist kein pr skriptives Handbuch der wesentlichen Do's und Don'ts, sondern soll ein ausgewogenes Verst ndnis und die F higkeit f rdern, Hygiene- und Infektionsrisiken in jeder Situation zu ber cksichtigen. Schlie lich erkennen die Bazillen die unterschiedlichen Umst nde wahrscheinlich nicht und es ist ihnen schlichtweg egal, so dass die Pr ventionsans tze in den meisten F llen weitgehend allgemein gehalten sind.

Igiene e prevenzione delle infezioni al di là degli ospedali

Edizioni Sapienza

pokkari
Nel corso della vita, siamo esposti al rischio di infezione da parte di una grande variet di microrganismi di cui possiamo avere scarso preavviso o aspettativa. Sedersi accanto a un estraneo con un forte raffreddore, ricevere una puntura d'insetto o consumare cibo o acqua contaminati pu essere semplicemente sgradevole o l'inizio di una brutta infezione. Nel caso di un'infezione contratta sul posto di lavoro, le circostanze dovrebbero essere pi prevedibili e ampiamente prevenibili. In ogni caso, nessuno vuole la sofferenza di un'infezione. L'investimento nella prevenzione porta a una ricompensa. Eliminare le carenze igieniche per evitare o prevenire le infezioni pu far risparmiare tempo e denaro, aumentare la produttivit sul posto di lavoro, ridurre le perdite di tempo e le assenze per malattia e garantire la fidelizzazione dei dipendenti. Anche fuori dal luogo di lavoro la cura non meno importante, poich le carenze igieniche possono provocare infezioni spiacevoli, ma altrimenti evitabili. Questo libro non un manuale prescrittivo di cose da fare e da non fare, ma favorisce una comprensione equilibrata e la capacit di considerare i rischi di igiene e di infezione associati a qualsiasi situazione. Dopotutto, gli insetti probabilmente non riconoscono le diverse circostanze e semplicemente non se ne curano, quindi il pi delle volte gli approcci alla prevenzione sono in gran parte generici.

Watch Me Take Off The Life of Ian J. (Jim) Duncan

Watch Me Take Off The Life of Ian J. (Jim) Duncan

pokkari
Young Ian Duncan dreamed of flying airplanes, though this seemed an impossibility. His parents, poor immigrants, had left Scotland in the 1920s, hoping for a better life in the USA. The couple settled in Butler, Pennsylvania, where George Duncan worked as chauffeur to the rich owner of T. W. Phillips Gas and Oil. Ian and his two sisters were born on the Phillips estate and lived with their parents above the carriage house. Mr. Phillips became their benefactor through trusts for the three children. Ian's trust provided means for him to realize his dream to be an aviator. In 1949 at fourteen, he had the luck to be hired as a hangar boy at Scholter Aviation and be mentored by the owner, Kenneth Scholter. Thus began an illustrious career in which Ian Duncan in five decades rose to great heights in aviation. Watch Me Take Off recounts this remarkable man's achievements in an era of adventurous and joyous flying. Duncan's career with the Air Force, Pan American World Airways, executive positions with Airbus Industrie, and his many noteworthy awards reflect a unique life in aviation. This exceptional man's grounding in humility, integrity, and hard work will inspire; and for readers interested in aviation history, the book is of importance.

Intelligence

Intelligence

Ian J. Deary

Oxford University Press
2020
nidottu
Some people are cleverer than others. This everyday observation is the subject of an academic field that is often portrayed as confused and controversial, when in fact, the field of intelligence holds some of psychology's best-replicated findings. This Very Short Introduction describes what psychologists have discovered about how and why people differ in their thinking powers. Drawing on large scale data Ian Deary considers how many types of intelligence there are, and how intelligence changes with age. Along the way he tackles some of the most burning questions surrounding intelligence, such as whether larger brains are cleverer, and how genes and environments contribute to people's intelligence differences. He also considers the new field of cognitive epidemiology, which draws links between intelligence and better health, less illness, and longer life, and asks whether intelligence is increasing. In this new edition Deary also addresses the controversial question of whether men and women differ in intelligence. Throughout he provides a clear description of the data we can use to answer these questions and more. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

High Calvinists in Action

High Calvinists in Action

Ian J. Shaw

Oxford University Press
2003
sidottu
This valuable contribution to the debate about the relation of religion to the modern city fills an important gap in the historiography of early nineteenth-century religious life. Although there is some evidence that strict doctrine led to a more restricted response to urban problems, extensive local and personal variations mean that simple generalizations should be avoided. Ian J.Shaw argues against earlier prejudiced views and shows that high Calvinists played a vigorous and successful part in the response of early nineteenth-century churches to the process of urbanization. The study includes six substantial case studies of ministers and their churches in Manchester and London. Four high Calvinist ministers are considered, with two studies of ministers holding to an evangelical Calvinist doctrine also included to provide instructive contrasts. Detailed social analysis of the congregations is based upon extensive use of manuscript and printed sources, sermons, and local and denominational press.

Engines of Change

Engines of Change

Ian J. Kerr

Praeger Publishers Inc

The former Jewel in the Crown of the British Empire, India remains, by any measure, a major economic and political actor on the world scene. Without her extensive railway network—completed against all odds by her British colonial masters—it is impossible to imagine what might have become of the diverse lands and peoples of the subcontinent. These railway networks brought them together as a colony; these networks fostered the nationalism that would be Britain's downfall. This rail network both remade the physical landscape and brought social-cultural cohesion to a diverse and wide-ranging populace. It would be common rail travel that Gandhi would employ to reach the masses. From its romantic mystique to its dangerous reality, it is rail travel today that keeps vital social, cultural, economic and political forces moving. India's railroad history serves as a unique lens to her larger story of triumph over adversity. By 1905, India had the world's fourth largest railway network—a position it retains in the early 21st century. The railroads were at the organizational and technological center of many of the inter-related economic, political, social, cultural, and ecological transformations that produced modern India through, and out of, its colonial past. In addition to this vast technical achievement, and (in keeping with the series focus), there is an equally important and wide-sweeping human-interest tale to be told with evocative vignettes of the triumph of the human spirit (one billion strong!) in the face of great adversity.
