Book Description

This major book provides a new understanding of systems of corporate governance, notably in the USA, Japan and the EU. The contributors discuss how governance influences corporate cultures and strategies, particularly in response to the effects of deepening integration in the world economy. These effects present challenges for governments, obliging them to focus increasingly on problems of the management of structural and foreign trade policies. Challenges in international financial markets also have to be confronted by policymakers as industries are funded more and more through cross-border investments, which reflect the responses of systems of corporate governance to globalization.

The chapters of this book link studies of corporate governance with surveys of efficiencies and failures in international financial markets, and examine aspects of corporate governance systems that have special significance for the management of economic policies as globalization continues. The contributors advocate increased international cooperation to promote more structural complementarities in the world economy.

Book Description

History shows a pattern of oppression, forced assimilation, and even destruction of minority groups. Although legal and quasi-legal instruments were adopted after both the First and Second World Wars, it was not until after the fall of the Berlin Wall that the protection of persons belonging to national minorities became a dominant issue in the international legal and political arenas. This book focuses on three mechanisms in the field: the OSCE High Commission on National Minorities (established in 1992), the UN Working Group on Minorities (established 1995), and the CoE Advisory Committee on Minorities (established 1997). The core question examined is whether these mechanisms, with the variety of approaches and working methods at their disposal, really make a difference in the protection of national minorities. Rianne Letschert received the University of Tilburg Prize for the second best dissertation for the doctoral thesis The Impact of Minority Rights Mechanisms on the impact of international minority rights mechanisms on the implementation of minority rights.

Book Description

This volume Coniferous Forests is the last in the series Ecosystem of the World.

Conifers and coniferous forests are an important element around us and attract our interest. This volume starts with an account of the history and distribution of the conifers. In six chapters the most important areas in Asia, Europe, North and South America with conifers forest are described covering boreal, temperate, tropical as well as mountainous regions. The descriptions are made out from a biome and an ecosystem perspective. Also detailed accounts on tree species other vegetation is also briefly described. Climatic and soil conditions are dealt with as well as disturbances. Interesting notes on vegetation classification is also to be found, among others from Russia.

The functional aspects of the conifer forests in terms of physiology, production, biomass, water and elemental cycling are dealt with in four chapters. Applied aspects as their economic value, management and importance for tourism are also presented.

Book Description

While residual stress can be a problem in many industries and lead to early failure of component, it can also be introduced deliberately to improve lifetimes. Knowledge of the residual stress state in a component can be critical for quality control of surface engineering processes or vital to performing an accurate assessment of component life under fatigue loading. Neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffraction have emerged as leading techniques for stress analysis, as they can penetrate many millimetres or centimetres into components, allowing nondestructive measurement of the internal strains. Both methods require the use of costly facility-based equipment, but great advantages are obtained from the ability to probe the stress state deep below a specimen's surface. Analysis of Residual Stress by Diffraction Using Neutron and Synchrotron Radiation gives an overview of the principles of these techniques and examples of their applications to a range of materials and engineering problems. It contains 20 chapter contributed by leading international experts in residual stress analysis, who explore the theoretical basis of stress analysis by diffraction methods, the practical implementation of the methods, and examples of key applications. The applications discussed include the determination of internal stresses in weldments, in composite materials, following shot peening, and in ceramics. This book will be useful for engineers and scientists who work in any field where residual stresses are of importance, and for anyone involved with the application of neutron or synchrotron radiation for stress management. As the techniques become a basic component of the measurement toolkit for stress analysis, an appreciation of the practicalities and limitations of these methods in practice will be important throughout a range of engineering and scientific fields.

Book Description

cott Barron seems to have it all-a beautiful girlfriend, a dazzling career as a published poet, and a great future. In contrast, his younger brother Jes is a married, overweight, unpublished writer with a fondness for penguins. Then why is it that, to Scott, Jes' life always seems so much better? He finds out, but only after his girlfriend decides to split (just as he was about to say the 'L' word-and almost mean it), he makes a fool of himself on the BBC, his mother suddenly dies, and his estranged father shows up-a series of catastrophes that push him to the edge and then some. As Scott's self-centered world begins to unravel, he discovers that the key to a happy existence just might be found in a happy relationship. But before he can move on into a new life and a new love, he has to figure out how to get Norman II, a stolen penguin, back to the zoo. Men and Other Mammals is a hilarious and touching tale about figuring out what and who really matter in life. Keeble shows us that loving someone is a choice you must make every day for the rest of your life-and that loving someone is often a lot harder than not having someone to love.

Hilarious!.......2005-01-25

A divine and sweet comedy. Has great incites on realtionships, both romantic and familial, a unique point of view. You will never view a penguin the same way again.

Hornbyish.......2004-03-10

With Nick Hornby as a guage, this book gets 4 stars. It is good and funny but slightly missing the mark compared to Hornby. Horby really, really gets my generation's pop culture life and makes in incredibly funny to read. Jim Keeble is close and a good read. I will definitely give Jim another read when his next novel comes out.

Rough Start But Later Sails Smoothly.......2004-01-13

men and other mammals is about a poet just starting out in the lit world and slowly making his way up the ladder. his brother is trying to do the same thing, but its just not working out the way he wants it. funny thing is, he has everything that the poet DOESN'T. so while one guy is jealous of the other, they both end up losing everything and having to pull things together as a team. along the way there are hijinks, antics, ballyhoo, shenanigans and tomfoolery, mixed in with a little sad stuff too.

well, like the title says, it has a rough start with the main character belly aching and pining after this girl who left him high and dry and he just can't get on with his life the right way. then he starts crying about how his brother and he dont have much of a relationship and how they fight and get mad at each other and blah blah blah. oh man what a drag the first 80 pages were and I was like, "come on dude, have some backbone for crying out loud!" really.

then, out of nowhere, the writer starts writing! a story comes out of left field and his character gets nice and fleshed out and i start caring about his brother and his relationship with his parents begins to get a little interesting. by the 100th page, i was really into the story, even if the character main seems like he's always dealing with situations like many sensitive young ladies i know.

and then, you know what? IT GETS FUNNY! man this writer finds his niche so well during the middle of the book that i just could not put the darn thing down! yeah, he bored the stuffing out of me for so long, i was sure that i was just going to leave the stupid book on the train like i did that piece of junk, "dirt music." but man oh man am i glad i didnt. no, this isn't "the davinci code" or anything like that, but it is a nice little read that gave me a bit of pleasure. thankfully, it winds up nice and easy and in much of a way that i expected, which pleased me because it kind of couldn't end any other way. check it out.

A wonderful view of life and love and penguins..........2003-11-05

I simply loved this book. It reminds, I know, I know, of early Hornby, if a bit more sappy. Keeble, however, has his own voice and explores a terrain rarely seen in today's popular fiction--brothers. The relationship between Jes and Scott is very real. The book is universal and it could easily have been set in New Orleans or Dallas as London. The penguin subplot is funny and makes sense in the context of the story. The losses that Scott feels are very real and the redemption he finds is poignant. The book is a breezy but moving read.

A Good Read.......2003-10-26

The book was a good read. Scott Barron, a writer, recently released his new book of poems "Men and Other Mammals". Despite the success of his book, his personal life is another story. He has unresolved issues with his father, figuring out as to why he left him and his brother as children and his girlfriend of eight months has left him. Scott begins to wonder what is his lot in life besides writing. Does he feel he needs a relationship to make his life complete? Does he feel helping others will make him better?
The book was a great read, rather than a good read. It was funny when he and his father kidnap a penguin and keep him in his flat reeking and soiling his bathroom. It was gross when he threw up in front of his audience as he reads a piece from his book. But it was overall interesting as to know what defines manhood. Jim Keeble did a good job. Hope he comes out with another interesting book to keep the reader in tune.

Book Description

Few historians have ever captured the drama, excitement, and tragedy of the War Between the States quite like Edwin Bearss. The acclaimed "Homer of the Civil War," has won a huge, devoted following with his extraordinary battlefield tours and eloquent soliloquies about the heroes, scoundrels, and little-known moments of a conflict that still fascinates America. Antietam, Shiloh, Chickamauga, Gettysburg: these hallowed battles and more than a dozen more come alive as never before, rich with human interest and colorful detail culled from a lifetime of study.

Illustrated with detailed maps and archival images, this 448-page volume commemorates the 140th anniversary of the war's end with a unique narrative of its most critical battles, translating Bearss' inimitable delivery into print. As he guides readers from the first shots at Fort Sumter to Gettysburg's bloody fields to the dignified surrender at Appomattox, his engagingly plainspoken but expert account demonstrates why he stands beside Shelby Foote, James McPherson, and Ken Burns in the front rank of modern chroniclers of the Civil War, as the Pulitzer Prize-winning McPherson himself points out in his admiring introduction.

A must for every one of America's countless Civil War and history buffs alike, this major work will stand as an important reference and enduring legacy of a great historian for generations to come.

A Must Read for Civil War Enthusiasts.......2007-08-23

I enjoyed this book. It is clear and easy to understand. A very interesting read.

A "taste" of Ed.......2007-07-30

Have been a huge fan of Ed since my first tour w/Chicago CW R/T to Vicksburg w/Ed as guide in either 1963 or 64...unbeliveable presentations on the trip.
This current volume is an "adequate" attempt to provide a flavor of Ed's dynamic style, but his expertise in limited by the volume's production standards. First, the font size used for the index is too small for the average reader, Secondly, more detailed maps should have been prepared for the individual battles, i.e. especially the three/days at Gettysburg. The overview maps are nice, but the one for the final days covering the abandonment of Richmond to Appomattox is grossly inadequate. Yes, these all cost $$$, but do a proper job and add $2.00 to the cost of the book.
Sadly, there is no coverage of the Atlanta Campaign> Sherman vs. Joe Johnson. I've been with Ed twice on this campaign and he simply does an outstanding presentation of not only the various battles, but the personalities, i.e. Sherman's reluctance to lauch attacks, et al. Despite the production short-comings the volume is an excellent one to take along while visiting a CW battlefield to "taste the flavor" as only can be done by Ed, with one will need some other books, i.e. map atlas, to augment for fullercoverage.

An American Treasure.......2007-07-07

Edwin C. Bearss is an American Treasure. His Civil War commentary is "History with Flavor". His ability to understand the complexities of this nation's more difficult time and then bring it to the American people in a succinct and entertaining way is a true delight.
Fields of Honor is Mr. Bearss's insight into 14 of the Civil War's pivotal battles. He brings his unique perspective and understanding of how these battles were fought and why they turned out as they did.
His asides and interesting writing style makes for a fun read.
My only fault of this master is that the review of the individual battles was so short. I would enjoy a more in depth analysis by Mr. Bearss as he is one of the foremost Civil War authorities today.
Side note: This summer, August, I will participate in a 5 day private tour of the Gettysburg battlefield of which 2 of the days will be spent with Mr. Bearss. I eagerly look forward to his commentary and unique insights on this great field of battle. He is indeed an American Treasure.
Recommended as an overview of the Civil War battles covered. Not an in depth analysis but a splendid little review with some interesting insights into these pivotal battles. Civil War history with a dash of Bearss flavor. Very good if one is going to visit the battlefields in question.

A Man of the Battlefields.......2007-06-12

In the Preface to his recent book "Fields of Honor" Ed Bearss describes himself as a "man of the battlefields" and so he is. For over fifty years, Bearss has been introducing Americans to the Civil War on the ground and in the trenches - by offering tours of both the great and the little-known battlefields of the conflict. With his booming voice, charisma, encyclopedic knowledge, love for his subject, and gift for the telling detail, Bearss is an inspiring teacher and historian indeed. Bearss is a former Chief Historian of the National Park Service, and he is familiar to many Americans who have never studied the Civil War or visited a battlefield from his appearances on PBS.

"Fields of Honor" is a collaborative effort between Bearss and the Blue and Gray Education Society, a nonprofit Civil War educational organization which sponsors tours, lectures and other efforts to teach people about the Civil War and its significance. Bearss has frequently led tours for the group. The book was prepared by transcribing tapes of the many tours Bearss has given over the years at key battlefields. The tapes were transcribed, edited, and placed into a coherent narrative, supplemented by many period photographs and maps.

The book begins in 1859, as Bearss guides the reader through John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry and its aftermath. He then narrates by year the key battles of the Civil War beginning with Fort Sumter and First Bull Run in 1861, proceeding through Shiloh and Antietam in 1862, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Vicksburg, and Chattanooga in 1863, Grant's bloody overland campaign in 1864, and Sherman's march through the Carolinas and Appomattox in 1865.

The concluding chapter of the book details the history of the ironclad "Cairo" which was sunk by a Confederate mine in the Yazoo River in 1862. Bearss discovered the Cairo while working as a historian in Vicksburg in 1956, and, after a great deal of effort, the Cairo was raised in 1965 and finally put on display at Vicksburg in the mid-1980s. Bearss takes a great deal of justifiable pride in his efforts in recovering and restoring the Cairo.

The battlefield narratives are fast-paced, informal, and full of action and story. The individuals who collated Bearss' tapes did an excellent job in keeping the oral and immediate character of Bearss' battlefield presentations. Thus, these tapes do not present a full, detailed account of the battles they describe. There is a voluminous literature on each of the individual battles discussed in this book. Further, Bearss' focus is on military activities. He spends little time on the causes of the war or on its political, social or economic impact. (Bearss does discuss Lee's surrender at Appomattox in the context of an effort towards the reconciliation of North and South. And he also frequently points out the role of African American soldiers in the battles.) Again, there is a vast and accessible literature on these matters available to interested readers.

In reading these narratives, I tried to imagine myself on the battlefields with Bearss leading a group as we moved from place to place with Bearss recounting stories of movements, encounters, and persons. There is a cumulative impact in Bearss' narratives. They convey a feel for combat. More important, Bearss conveys to his readers or listeners a sense of the historical importance of the Civil War. It was a harsh, bitter conflict fought valiantly by soldiers both North and South. The meaning of the conflict for our country remains to be determined and expanded upon by each generation of Americans. Bearss' efforts throughout the years and this book are inspiring beginnings to teach Americans to think about this crucial period in our history.

well short of expectations.......2007-01-06

Mr. Bearss is a wonderful treasure trove of information and many people, myself included, enjoy his battlefield tours. This volume offers an encore of those tours, but little else. I suspect it is aimed at the Civil War book buying audience who purchase most anything with the names Bearss and McPherson attached.

For some reason the text shifts font between historical narrative and Bearss' tour guide transcript. One supposes this is to spread the blame.

Considering Mr. Bearss' emphasis on the 'ground' and that the National Geographic Society is the publisher, the maps are amazingly poor and undetailed.

Similarly, the book makes poor use of photographs: why use an 1850s photo of Lee, retouched to add a beard, when so many others exist?
Another photo of 'Winfield S. Hancock' sure looks an awful lot like Ambrose P. Burnside.

A typical Civil War buff will glean little from this publication and a novice will not have the prerequisites for filling in the narrative's many gaps.

In brief, even though I can 'hear' Mr. Bearss wonderful voice speaking the words, the book itself falls well short of expectations.

Interesting book, a good defence for the exclusion of African-Americans from the 1893 Chicago World's Fair.

Here is a radical approach to the Holy Grail of physics, the “theory of everything,” and a new theory that the universe was formed from two particles.

Wasting Time and Money.......2006-03-02

This guy is a priest. And that's all
Don't buy it

A terrible ratatouille.......2003-12-25

Prof. Sternglass's theory is based on priest Lemaitre's primeval atom, that should have been composed by an electron and a positron. This primeval atom should have existed before the Big Bang. More, it should have created it by its division. And further divisions should have formed the whole universe!
As this is not enough, the author returns to Einstein's universal fluid (the ether) and pretends that the physical origin of 'space curvature' is provoked by an internal circulation of the ether in a vortex ring.

Needless to say that the author doesn't believe in the Standard Model, and surely not in the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics.

The only interesting pages in this book are reports of the author's meetings with Einstein (who defends determinism), Bohr (who defends freedom) and Feynman (who crushes him).

The rest of the book is a terrible waste of time.

intriguing.......2002-01-30

It's certainly weird that recent discoveries seem to bear out the theories put forth in this book -- for example, Sternglass outlandishly posits that EVERY star has to have its own orbiting planet...thus far, every star scientists have been able to see DOES seem to have its own "companion"...and scientists still haven't been able to firmly account for the mysterious "dark matter" that supposedly fills space -- Sternglass argues that it's nothing more than the centrifugal force of a rotating universe. Yes, "mindblowing" as another reviewer wrote -- but possibly correct. Cleanly written, too!

Astonishing! What elegance and beauty!.......2001-10-02

My praise is unqualified for _Before the Big Bang_. It answers so many previously unanswered questions about the universe, unifies all the physical forces, and unifies all forms of matter and energy, with jaw-dropping elegance and beauty. A few of its many highlights:

Matter is revealed to be made up of pairs of rotating electrons and positrons. Electrons, positrons, and photons are revealed to be forms of vortexs in the ether, so that matter and energy are visually comprehensible as two forms of the same thing, as required by Einstein's E=mc2. The properties of the vortexs also account for the properties of theoretical superstrings. In this way, the gulf between classical and quantum physics evaporates.

Protons are revealed to be made up of four electron-positron pairs and a positron, interacting in such a way (illustrated on p. 250) as to account for the properties of theoretical quarks (which have never been observed individually), the strong force, and the unequaled stability of protons. Neutrons and the weak force are similarly explained.

Electron-positron pairs allow for more massive and yet longer-lived particles than any other known form of matter. This, astonishingly, allows a single electron-positron pair to encompass the mass/energy of the entire universe. This in turn makes it unnecessary to stipulate a problematic infinitely dense singularity and a beginning of time at the big bang.

All cosmologicals structures, from the universe down to planets, are revealed to be rotating systems equally spaced on logarithmic scales of both mass and size. This structure, unaccountable by any previous model, is revealed to have been preexistent in the extraordinarily but finitely dense seed of matter at the big bang. This seed divided by two in a series of stages, until reaching the level of ordinary matter, at which point it ejected outward in the big bang as we know it while retaining many seeds of cosmological structures to come.

This model explains in a beautiful, elegant way many previously unaccountable cosmological structures. Quasars, previously unaccountably brighter and denser than any known cosmological object, and found in the most distant and hence oldest parts of the universe, are revealed to be galaxies in the process of ejecting their matter from their central seed. Galaxies from the earliest stages of the universe, before they could possibly have had time to condense under the force of gravity, are revealed to have had a preexistent structure in their central seed. Dwarf galaxies, previously unaccountable, are revealed to be ejected from their parent galaxy along its axis of rotation. Rotating spiral structures of multiple galaxies, previously unaccountable, are revealed to have been ejected from a central seed.

This book is truly revolutionary. It can only be a matter of time before Sternglass is hailed as a Galileo, who was similarly attacked. Notice how all the negative reviews have been quick to judge and slow to actually read the book, e.g. "It's trash, can't you tell by its cover?"

Finally, the book is filled with dense physics language. Sternglass rightly says that the subject is difficult, but that the lay-reader should be able to follow the main ideas.

This guy is quite possibly a pioneer of astrophysics.......2001-03-26

...because I think BEFORE THE BIG BANG is seriously intriguing, definitely worth a read. If it turns out to be wrong, it will not be because of any obvious errors, only because much of what we "know" about cosmology is merely elegant speculation, and Sternglass MAY be proven wrong in the fullness of time. (Interesting he gets attacked so vehemently. I read he also was surrounded by controversy at the San Francisco Book Fair, where he spoke -- apparently one physicist at U.Cal. didn't even want to let him on the stage at all, never mind disagreeing with him! Reminds me of other famous pioneering astronomers/astrophysicists of recent and ancient history...) I can't resist answering reviewer Frank Paris's technical comments, because I don't like to see a hardworking scientist slammed:

1. Paris questions how the primordial particle can revolve --"relative to what?" This question is answered on pages 204 and 208-9, where Sternglass describes the ideas of Gödel, Ozsvath and Schücking, according to which rotation relative to the space-time continuum of Einstein, or his version of Newton's and Descartes' ether, is described. These scientists showed that a rotating universe is theoretically possible, so that there can in fact be a rotating primeval atom.

2. Paris says that Sternglass imagines "the primitive particles making up a proton to be a rotating electron/positron pair. So it should be chargeless." But if you actually read the discussion of the proton model on pages 249-251 and see the diagram showing its structure on page 250, you understand that the proton not only contains four electron-positron pairs but also a positron, so that it is positively charged.

Sternglass has guts and is not crazy. He's met with controversy before (I first heard of him because of his anti-nuke writing -- and he was once in the thick of nuclear research.). He's daringly, and carefully, posited a mind-blowing, revolutionary reconfiguration of how we see the universe. He just may be the Galileo of our times. And like it or not, the many consequences of what Sternglass calls "the electron-positron model" seem to be in quantitative agreement with observations in particle physics and the sizes, masses and motions of all astronomical objects, strongly supporting his theories.
