There are a number of reasons why it might be worth knowing about the Strategy Gurus. * You might just want to be familiar with their names, and a few of the concepts which they have given us. * You may want to go more deeply into what they have to say, providing a fuller framework for understanding some management issues in the organisation around you.This might extend to having a process for doing strategic thinking yourselves. * You may wish to expand your learning of leading management thinking, perhaps as a preliminary to doing an MBA. * And finally, you may be keen to use some Guru concepts more directly and practically on some of your own issues. This book addresses all of these needs. |

The goal of this translation is to introduceThe History of the Incas [1572], by Pedro Sarmiento deGamboa, to a broad range of individuals interested in the history of the Americas. Sarmiento de Gamboa’s manuscript was written in the city ofCuzco, the former capital of the Inca Empire, at a time when the Inca Empire was still remembered by informants who had held important positions of power in it. As such,The History of the Incas is an invaluable source of information on the last and largest empire to develop in the indigenous Americas. Inspired by other recent translations of writers suchasBernabeCobo(1979, 1990), JuandeBetanzos(1996),PedrodeCieza de Leon (1998), Jose de Acosta (2002), and Tito Cusi Yupanqui (2005), we hope that this work will encourage others to explore and understand the Andean past. |

Ignimbrites are vast, landscape-modifying deposits composed mainly of pumice fragments and ash. They derive from the most hazardous types of explosive volcanic eruptions and record rapid sedimentation from catastrophic pyroclastic density currents that sweep across the ground. Since early work on ignimbrites by P. Marshall (1935), H. Kuno (1941), R. L. Smith (1960) and R. V. Fisher (1966), there has been a dramatic increase in research into these enigmatic deposits. Particularly instructive field studies include those of ignimbrites from the large caldera volcanoes of the western USA, from the arc volcanoes of the Mediterranean region, Japan, Southeast Asia, South America and New Zealand, and from intraplate volcanoes such as the Canary Islands. Experimental-analogue and numerical modelling of pyroclastic density current behaviour and sedimentation have recently complemented the field-based work. Now there is a bewildering plethora of ignimbrite classification schemes, emplacement models and deposit interpretations. It is therefore timely to take stock, to synthesize modern understanding, and, in particular, to consider how field investigations of ignimbrite lithofacies can best be used both to infer actual pyroclastic density current behaviour and to constrain or test the various models. A fresh look at ignimbrite _ emplacement is all the more important with the recognition that ignimbrites can relate to eruptions with magnitudes sufficient to impact global climate and biota. |

This book entitled Abrasive Erosion and Corrosion of Hydraulic Machinery is one of the many volumes of the Book Series on Hydraulic Machinery organised and edited by its International Editorial Committee. This volume deals with the abrasive erosion and corrosion of hydraulic machinery, the theory and practical subjects being arisen from the engineering reality. The abrasive erosion damage is one of the most important technical problem for hydro-electric power stations working in silt laden water, and the pumping plants to be employed in diversion of solid particle-liquid two phase flow in many industrial and agricultural sectors. In countries with rivers of high silt content the exploitation of those rivers are inevitably faced with the silt erosion problem. |

Molecular Endocrinology and Regulation is a burgeoning field, having experienced a remarkable period of growth since the late 1960s. At that time, there was no field of Hormone Action. The prevailing view of how hormones worked ranged from effects on membrane transport of nutrients and precursors for RNA and protein synthesis, to effects on the translation of mRNA at the level of ribosomes. There was, however, a small cadre of voices that predicted a possible nuclear action on mRNA synthesis. The first such paper was presented at the national endocrine meetings in 1967 and dealt with hormonal stimulation of oviductal protein synthesis. It was about this time that a small group of scientists interested in hormone effects in cells attended a Gordon Conference in New Hampshire organized by Jim Florini; this meeting represented one of the first conferences to focus an entire program on hormone action and mechanisms. |

The most important applied structure is called Fundamental (Technical) Plans (FP). The plans can indeed also reach beyond pure technique, such as organization. The main author has worked within this area as a consultant and as a teacher for many years, starting in the 1970s. The students have represented operators from all over the world. Historically, after a long stable period during the twentieth century, digitization brought the need for a synchronization plan in addition to a basic set of plans. The area of IN and mobility were the next challenges to the basic ‘FP house design’. A main contribution was a mobility management plan. Then IP entered the overall telecom area, giving a new touch to the quality of service plan, urging for a separate security plan and for a controllable convergence. The FP view supports no doubt an orderly convergence between technologies. After all, all technologies have a common target: to connect communicating parties in a satisfactory way, technically and economically. |

You may ask why I wrote this book. There are many, many personal reasons as with any author I suppose. The first two reasons and probably the most important are my love of flying and my love of radio engineering. This may sound rather dull but I love flying in any machine be it balloon, glider, propeller aircraft, microlight through to airline jets and the experience of it. The more I do it the more I feel I understand it. A relative once asked me, ‘how does an aircraft fly?’ I thought for a while, of how to try and explain the fundamentals of physics and aerodynamics which I feel privileged to have had a fundamental education in. After further thought I realized how I take it all for granted like the vast majority of the people, and despite this education and the sound engineering principles, I still find that flying defies all our instinct and it truly is difficult to explain. I also find the whole topic of radio propagation equally magical. Again, how can it work when we cannot see it? How can signals travel through apparent nothingness. How can we predict it? The physical equations are all there to describe it in great detail, however it too defies a layman’s logic. |

Все сакральные послания древних цивилизаций написаны от первого лица, а это значит, что люди, жившие в те времена, были очевидцами описываемых событий. Они видели огненную колесницу пророка Илии, разговаривали со своими наставниками с планеты Тоонаоттекха, дотрагивались до одеяний космических пришельцев, посетивших индейцев хопи. Знаменитый археолог и исследователь Эрих фон Дэникен описывает свои сенсационные находки, сделанные на острове Крит, в Сахаре и Земле Обетованной, а также на землях, где тысячи лет назад жили догоны, индейцы хопи и качинас. Он отправляется по следам Всемогущих, шествовавших по нашей земле, и приглашает читателей отправиться вслед за ним. Эрих фон Дэникен родился 14 апреля 1935 года в Золингене (Швейцария). Учился в коллеже Святого Михаила во Фрайбурге, где уже в студенческие годы увлекся изучением старинных рукописей. Работал управляющим сети пятизвездочных отелей. Известность фон Дэникену принесла уже первая его книга, "Возвращение к звездам" ("Колесницы богов"), вышедшая в 1968 году и ставшая бестселлером в США, Германии и еще в 38 странах. В 1970 году по ней был поставлен документальный фильм "Воспоминание о будущем", привлекший к затронутой исследователем теме палеоконтакта широкий интерес аудитории. Эрих фон Дэникен - член различных писательских организаций, лауреат ряда премий. В 1998 году он основал Ассоциацию исследований по археологии, астронавтике и проблеме SETI. В 2003 году вы Швейцарии был открыт тематический парк развлечений "Загадки мира", у истоков создания которого стоял Дэникен. В последующие годы Эрих фон Дэникен продолжал искать следы пребывания в прошлом на Земле инопланетных космонавтов, публиковал книги, выступал с лекциями. Его книги переведены на 28 языков и вышли общим тиражом более 60 миллионов экземпляров. |
