Future of International Air Transport Policy: Responding to Global Change
Button Manufacturer: Organization for Economic Cooperation & Devel ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 9264154035 |
Book Description
International air transport is not only a major industry in itself, it also plays a crucial role in the functioning of the overall economy. Faced with the prospect of an increasingly turbulent and uncertain world economic environment in the coming decades, it is vital that international aviation evolve into an efficient, dynamic, and responsive sector that is able to contribute fully to global economic development. This report, overseen by a high-level steering group composed of representatives from government, major airlines, airports, aircraft manufacturers, air fuel suppliers, and consumer groups, addresses the key policy challenges confronting international air transport. It describes the role of international aviation in globalization, assesses the likely future development of the world economy, and puts the spotlight firmly on the changing nature of uncertainties in tomorrow's world. After analyzing the difficult issues surrounding market entry and exit, the report explores the complexities of competition within the market - the concept of workable competition, alliances, subsidization, privatization, foreign ownership, etc - focusing throughout on the role that policy makers can play in helping or hindering the efficient functioning of international markets for air transport. In so doing, it tackles head on the highly contentious quesiton of liberalization, and proposes a set of wide-ranging policy recommendations to help decision makers shape the regulatory framework of the future.

Electrode Kinetics for Chemists, Chemical Engineers, and Materials Scientists
Eliezer Gileadi Manufacturer: DA Information Services ProductGroup: Book Binding: Unknown Binding Similar Items: ASIN: 1560815612 |
Book Description
Offering a thorough explanation of electrode kinetics, this textbook emphasizes physical phenomena-rather than mathematical formalism-and elucidates the underlying principles of the different experimental techniques. Assuming an elementary knowledge of thermodynamics and chemical kinetics and minimal mathematical skills, coverage explores the arguments of two primary schools of thought: electrode kinetics and interfacial electrochemistry viewed as a branch of physical chemistry, and from the perspective of analytical chemistry.

Debris-flow Hazards and Related Phenomena (Springer Praxis Books / Geophysical Sciences)
Matthias Jakob , and Oldrich Hungr Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Accessories:
ASIN: 3540207260 |
Book Description
With climate change and deforestation, debris flows and debris avalanches have become the most significant landslide hazards in many countries. In recent years there have been numerous debris flow avalanches in Southern Europe, South America and the Indian Subcontinent, resulting in major catastrophes and large loss of life. This is therefore a major high-profile problem for the world's governments and for the engineers and scientists concerned.
Matthias Jakob and Oldrich Hungr are ideally suited to edit this book. Matthias Jakob has worked on debris flow for over a decade and has had numerous papers published on the topic, as well as working as a consultant on debris flow for municipal and provincial governments. Oldrich Hungr has worked on site investigations on debris flow, avalanches and rockfall, with emphasis on slope stability analysis and evaluation of risks to roads in built-up areas. He has also developed mathematical models for landslide dynamic analysis. They have invited world-renowned experts to joint them in this book.

Comedy After Postmodernism: Rereading Comedy from Edward Lear to Charles Willeford
Kirby Olson Manufacturer: Texas Tech University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0896724409 |
Book Description
Alone among the giants of the French cultural left of the seventies, Gilles Deleuze and Jean-Francois Lyotard tried to work out a new non-Marxist direction, one that was marked by comic thought, a delight in incongruity, and humor. Formerly minor writers such as Edward Lear, P.G. Wodehouse, Philippe Soupault, Stewart Home, Gregory Corso, and Charles Willeford can now be read not as unworthy of serious attention, but as philosophical writers whose wit equals and in some ways extends the riotous thinking of Deleuze and Lyotard. It is the intent of this book to trace the ways in which these underappreciated comic writers extend postmodernism, in order to reevaluate them and spark an inspiration to reevaluate similar writers.Customer Reviews:
Interesting even for professional comedians.......2002-08-21
Olson is always sort of idiosyncratic. He wore a cowboy hat and a paisley shirt to classes.
His boots were pink.
The book he has written here is also idiosyncratic. He mixes weird stuff: like Hegel and Wodehouse in one chapter, and ancient Greek philosophy and modern mystery stories in another chapter. It was fun to see him go in depth.
The basis for humor, as he once pointed out in a class, was that you take two conflicting schemas, two completely opposite ideas, and have them make love. Their boundaries tickle. It's like omparing motorcycles and oranges. There is always a way to do it. Goosebumps, they both roll, they both smell good, and so on, until you get a productive comparison that makes you laugh. Olson keeps working until he gets it.
Olson is doing that through this whole book. It's a hard thing to sustain because it can get so complex that it falls into apostasy. But that's where comedians should be headed. This is sit-down comedy, though. Sit down, and think about it.
I should maybe try to ompare apples and speedboats.

Sociological Perspectives on Modernity: Multiple Models and Competing Realities (American University Studies Series XI, Anthropology and Sociology)
Arthur G. Neal Manufacturer: Peter Lang Publishing ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0820495190 |
Book Description
This book examines several sociological perspectives on the defining characteristics of modernity through the construction of conceptual models. Each model specifies the prime movers of the social system and the key agencies of change and development. According to one model, technology is the moving force in society, while another emphasizes metropolitan dominance, and yet another concentrates on materialistic values and consumerism. A growing number of social scientists perceive knowledge to be the driving force of modernity; yet others emphasize cultural pluralism or mass society. Because of the many ways dramatic changes are occurring in so many different directions at the same time, the multiple realities of modernity are recognized and clarified. Accelerations of experimentation and innovation are occurring in all areas of social life. The Enlightenment, the industrial revolution, and civil society are emphasized as the pathways to modernity. The themes of relativity, incompleteness, uncertainty, and fragmentation are implicated in postmodernist critiques of the values of the enlightenment.
