Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -In the management discourse few words are thrown about more carelessly than organizational culture . While the term is usually defined too broadly including such phenomena as assumptions, values, traditions, articles of faith, myths and artifacts this book applies a far more narrow concept. Organizational culture, or the informal structure of an organization, is a term used to describe the behavioral expectations in an organization that have not been decided on in a formal way but that evolved by means of repetition and imitation. This book shows how this narrow definition makes it possible to more precisely observe and understand an organization s culture and its changes. Management s only way for influencing organizational culture and this may sound paradoxical at first is to change the organization s formal structure as for example its incentive schemes, goal-setting processes, strategic directions or hierarchy. 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -'The killing of individuals must be accepted.'Federal Chancellor Helmut Schmidt, Bonn, in a telephone conversation with Minister of State Hans-Jürgen Wischnewski, Dubai, October 1977The year of terror in 1977, which included the kidnapping of German industrial leader Hanns Martin Schleyer and later the hijacking of the Lufthansa plane 'Landshut' with 86 passengers and five crew members on board, presented the Federal Republic of Germany with its greatest test to date. Federal Chancellor Helmut Schmidt had to engage in crisis management like no other incumbent before him. Hanns Martin Schleyer was ultimately murdered by his abductors, also the Captain of the 'Landshut' Jürgen Schumann. The other 'Landshut' hostages were freed by members of Border Guard Force 9 under Commander Ulrich Wegener.In this book, political scientist and historian Martin Rupps, who was responsible for bringing the 'Landshut' wreckage back to Germany from Brazil, retells the story of these fateful weeks, drawing on a range of previously unpublished sources to do so. For the first time, he shares deep insights into the thoughts and actions of Chancellor Helmut Schmidt and the members of the core and extended crisis teams. Contrary to the official narrative, Schmidt has never practiced more political cooperation than in these weeks. Further, in the hijacked 'Landshut' itself, events unfolded differently than previously reported. 'Man is the wolf of man', as philosopher Thomas Hobbes famously wrote. 296 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book provides a new approach to traces, which are viewed as linear continuous functionals on some function space. A key role in the analysis is played by integrals related to finitely additive measures, which have not previously been considered in the literature. This leads to Gauss-Green formulas on arbitrary Borel sets for vector fields having divergence measure as well as for Sobolev and BV functions. The integrals used do not require trace functions or normal fields on the boundary and they can deal with inner boundaries. For the treatment of apparently intractable degenerate cases a second boundary integral is used. The calculus developed here also allows integral representations for the precise representative of an integrable function and for the usual boundary trace of Sobolev or BV functions. The theory presented gives a new perspective on traces for beginners as well as experts interested in partial differential equations. The integral calculus might also be a stimulating tool for geometric measure theory.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This books focuses on all main medical disorders that affect the sexual health of patients.From the medical disorder and its impact on sexuality and from the sexual symptom as signal of underlying disease, this book highlights the importance of the sexual interview as essential element of medical history.The aim is to increase the scientific knowledge in human sexuality and sexual health in order to optimize the identification of the pathophysiology of sexual dysfunction from disease and to increase the quality of life of patients, promoting the proactivity of doctors in the care of the sexual sphere.Many medical disorders have negative effects on the different dominions of sexual function (desire, arousal, orgasm, ejaculation, and pain). Chronic disease also affects subsidiarily sexual function in many ways, including fatigue, pain, dependency impairment of self-image and impacting relationships. On the other hand sexual symptoms may be a signal of serious underlying disease.This book will be of benefit to GPs, gynecologists, andrologists, sexual medicine professionals, and all healthcare providers interested in the topic.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book offers an account of the European Union (EU) facilitated dialogue for normalization of relations between Kosovo and Serbia, examining how the EU s approaches, local politics, and civil society shaped the process. Rich with sources, it is essential reading for peace negotiations and EU s work in the Western Balkans. Using first-hand experience, the book explains why the talks scored significant wins but have yet to achieve full normalization of relations between the two countries. Chapter 1 outlines the objectives of the normalization dialogue. Chapter 2 examines why the normalization dialogue became necessary even after the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled that Kosovo s independence was legal. Chapter 3 dissects the dialogue's so-called technical phase, while Chapter 4 examines the shift to the political phase. Chapter 5 showcases civil society's corrective power and limits, while the conclusion deduces lessons for future EU mediation approaches and conflict resolution. 136 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book is all about mechanisms and machines, one of the most important core subjects of mechanical engineering. There are many ways a mechanism can be configured and there are many mechanisms in a machine, creating a tremendous opportunity to build better machines of our choice. To do so, however, one needs to understand the common thread present in the thousands of configurations and to break them down into a set of rules. This book does exactly that, using the same set of rules consistently to explain the design of any mechanism or machine. Pedagogical tools and approaches have been utilized to make it easier and more interesting for the student- extensive illustrations, simple explanations and exercise problems with useful hints have been included. The systematic use of a vector-based approach makes learning easier and helps extend the knowledge acquired in this book to applications in robotics. 536 pp. Englisch.
