Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Ralph Coverdale's varied and unusual life - as a Jesuit novice and soldier, psychologist and management consultant - led to a unique method of improving people's performance at work and of developing an organization to the full. Why do meetings go on for ever, circling round a problem without getting to a decision? Why are elaborate schemes devised, which anyone can see won't work? Why don't staff hear what you tell them? Why are petty failures magnified and successes neither examined nor praised? As the case studies in this book show, these questions are symptomatic of most managers' experience, whether in large companies, in charities, with professional firms, inside a research department or on a huge development project in the Third World. The book outlines the development of Coverdale training, now grown into an international consultancy, and its theory and practice. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Our ability to generate and collect data has been increasing rapidly. Not only are all of our business, scientific, and government transactions now computerized, but the widespread use of digital cameras, publication tools, and bar codes also generate data. On the collection side, scanned text and image platforms, satellite remote sensing systems, and the World Wide Web have flooded us with a tremendous amount of data. This explosive growth has generated an even more urgent need for new techniques and automated tools that can help us transform this data into useful information and knowledge. Like the first edition, voted the most popular data mining book by KD Nuggets readers, this book explores concepts and techniques for the discovery of patterns hidden in large data sets, focusing on issues relating to their feasibility, usefulness, effectiveness, and scalability. However, since the publication of the first edition, great progress has been made in the development of new data mining methods, systems, and applications. This new edition substantially enhances the first edition, and new chapters have been added to address recent developments on mining complex types of data including stream data, sequence data, graph structured data, social network data, and multi-relational data.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Strategies for Cultural Change develops a conceptual framework for thinking about cultural change. Starting with a discussion of the vocabulary (the concepts) of cultural change, the book moves on to the grammar (the thinking structures), and finally the "oral" practice (the applications) of cultural change in the organizational setting. Four main questions are addressed: Why change culture? Is planned cultural change possible? What kind of cultural change is envisaged? How does cultural change occur? The book contains 14 chapters organized into two parts. Part One examines the different types of cultural change strategy in some depth. "Developmental" and "transformational" strategies are then brought together into a single conceptual framework for cultural change. Part Two shifts from strategy to implementation; from thinking frameworks to frameworks for action. It begins by surveying current practice and examines the various, often strikingly different, ways in which people seek to effect cultural change in their organizations. Accounts are presented based both on the author's own first-hand experiences of working with private and public sector companies on cultural change programs, and on an extensive review of the available literature.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This text has been designed specifically to meet the requirements of the Institute of Marketing's Planning and Control Syllabus. It should also be useful to a variety of other students at Diploma (BTEC) and undergraduate level (eg, BA Business Studies) seeking a detailed treatment of the nature of marketing planning and control. The book's 18 chapters have been structured in such a way that the student is taken through the five major areas of strategic marketing planning and control: where are we now (strategic and marketing analysis)?; where do we want to go (strategic direction and strategy formulation)?; how might we get there (strategic choice)?; which way is best (strategic evaluation)?; and how can we ensure arrival (strategic implementation and control)? The book refers to recent research findings and to good practice. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.

This is a practical guide to successful television production techniques, examining the technical operations, the underlying skills of camerawork, sound, lighting etc, associated crafts, and the work of the television director. It has been extensively revised and augmented, to reflect current practices.

This book aids understanding and at the same time encourages marketing and other professionals to delve deeper into the planning process. After more than fifty years of marketing theory and practice, marketing planning still remains one of the great, unconquered challenges.

Through the use of lively cartoon illustrations McDonald and Morris present the marketing plan in an interesting, amusing and useful way. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Vectors in 2 or 3 Dimensions provides an introduction to vectors from their very basics. The author has approached the subject from a geometrical standpoint and although applications to mechanics will be pointed out and techniques from linear algebra employed, it is the geometric view which is emphasised throughout.Properties of vectors are initially introduced before moving on to vector algebra and transformation geometry. Vector calculus as a means of studying curves and surfaces in 3 dimensions and the concept of isometry are introduced later, providing a stepping stone to more advanced theories.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Blondie24 tells the story of a computer that taught itself to play checkers far better than its creators ever could by using a program that emulated the basic principles of Darwinian evolution--random variation and natural selection-- to discover on its own how to excel at the game. Unlike Deep Blue, the celebrated chess machine that beat Garry Kasparov, the former world champion chess player, this evolutionary program didn't have access to strategies employed by human grand masters, or to databases of moves for the endgame moves, or to other human expertise about the game of chekers. With only the most rudimentary information programmed into its "brain," Blondie24 (the program's Internet username) created its own means of evaluating the complex, changing patterns of pieces that make up a checkers game by evolving artificial neural networks---mathematical models that loosely describe how a brain works. It's fitting that Blondie24 should appear in 2001, the year when we remember Arthur C. Clarke's prediction that one day we would succeed in creating a thinking machine. In this compelling narrative, David Fogel, author and co-creator of Blondie24, describes in convincing detail how evolutionary computation may help to bring us closer to Clarke's vision of HAL. Along the way, he gives readers an inside look into the fascinating history of AI and poses provocative questions about its future. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
