Customer Reviews:
At last, an ESL book that informs, educates and challenges.......1998-11-05
I've taught all levels of ESl for a dozen or so years, and have found most books in this area to be excruciatingly dull, one-dimensional and at best condescending to non-native English speakers. I can't begin to tell you how good (relieving?) it is to teach from Milada Broukal's Weaving It Together, book 3. Not only do my students truly enjoy the stories, which are extremely well-written and contain a potpouri of topics, but they benefit from a wide range of activities taking them from pre-writing to revising. This superb book, for anyone teaching an advanced level skills class in reading and writing, gives students a paradigm to emulate while at the same time egging him or her on to better writing with interesting readings and useful, enriching activities.

Book Description
This handbook looks to provide academics and students with a comprehensive and holistic understanding of the phenomenon of innovation. Innovation spans a number of fields within the social sciences and humanities: Management, Economics, Geography, Sociology, Politics, Psychology, and History. Consequently, the rapidly increasing body of literature on innovation is characterized by a multitude of perspectives based on, or cutting across, existing disciplines and specializations. Scholars of innovation can come from such diverse starting points that much of this literature can be missed, and so constructive dialogues missed. The editors of The Oxford Handbook of Innovation have carefully selected and designed twenty-one contributions from leading academic experts within their particular field, each focusing on a specific aspect of innovation. These have been organized into four main sections, the first of which looks at the creation of innovations, with particular focus on firms and networks. Section Two provides an account of the wider systematic setting influencing innovation and the role of institutions and organizations in this context. Section Three explores some of the diversity in the working of innovation over time and across different sectors of the economy, and Section Four focuses on the consequences of innovation with respect to economic growth, international competitiveness, and employment. An introductory overview, concluding remarks, and guide to further reading for each chapter, make this handbook a key introduction and vital reference work for researchers, academics, and advanced students of innovation.
Book Description
The Oxford Handbook of Strategy covers the key subject areas and issues currently under discussion in the field of strategy. It unites a team of contributors who are all authorities on the topic of their chapter. The handbook will be of considerable value to researchers, graduate students, and teachers whose interest in the subject area has advanced beyond that of the traditional textbooks, and to managers and consultants who seek an authoritative, accessible, and up-to-date discussion of the fundamentals of strategy. Chapters examine six key areas: Approaches to Strategy, Strategic Analysis and Formulation, Corporate Strategy; International Strategy; Strategies of Organizational Change; and Strategic Flexibility and Uncertainty.

Book Description
New imaging methods have proliferated in recent years and many older techniques have either become more restricted in their application or completely obsolete. It is difficult for clinicians to keep up with these changes, especially since most practicing doctors have had little formal teaching
in radiology. As a result, many requests are received in radiology departments for examination which are either inappropriate or unnecessary.
This practical book attempts to remedy the situation by encouraging rational and effective use of imaging facilities, enabling a diagnosis to be reached as quickly as possible and avoiding unnecessary referrals. This is particularly important at a time when health care resources are stretched and
the public are becoming increasingly aware of the possible hazards of radiation. The opening chapters disuss the general principles of effective use of the radiology department, the techniqus available, the hazards of imaging, and the patient's viewpoint. Following chapters systematically consider
good practice in a range of clinical situations. This book will be of value to all hospital doctors and students in day to day practice, and in preparation for higher examinations.
Book Description
This book provides a forum for leading scholars in As globalization explodes, so does international businession scholarship. This handbook synthesizes all the relevante literature of the last forty years in twenty-eight original. chapters by the world's most distinguished scholars. Thetus coverage is split into five main areas: the history and theory of the multinational enterprise; the political andate policy environment of international business; strategies oft multinational enterprises; financial areas of the multinational enterprise; and business systems in Asia, South America, and the transitional economies. a practical social activity, this handbook reviews and evaluates important epistemological developments in the discipline. More specifically, the focus is on issues related to the nature of knowledge claims put forward in organization theory and the controversies surrounding the generation, validation, and utilization of such knowledge. Five sets of questions are raised in the handbook, each one of which is dealt with in a separate section: 1) What does a science of organizations consist of? What counts as valid knowledge in organization theory and why? How do different paradigms view organization theory as a science? 2) How has organization theory developed over time, and what structure has the field taken? What assumptions does knowledge produced in organization theory incorporate, and what forms do its knowledge claims take as they are put forward for public adoption? 3) How have certain well-known controversies in organization theory, such as for example, the structure/agency dilemma, the study of organizational culture, the different modes of explanation, the micro/macro controversy, and the differnet explanations produced by organizational economists and sociologists, been dealt with? 4) How, and in what ways, is knowledge generated in organization theory related to action? What features must organization theory knowledge have in order to be actionable, and of relevance to the world 'out there'? How have ethical concerns been taken into account in organization theory? 5) What is the future of organization theory? What direction should the field take? What must change in the way research is conducted and key theoretical terms are conceptualized so that organization theory enhances its capacity to generate valid and relevant knowledge?
Customer Reviews:
If you like philosophy..........2007-03-17
If you like philosophy, you will like Tsoukas's approach to organizational theory. Don't think about this text as practical tool for working with organizations - the subtitle 'Meta-theoretical Perspectives' says it all.
The authors in this volume are the thought leaders in modern Organizational Theory, so if you want a volume that brings key areas of thought together - this may be for you. The content is weighty (epistemology or critical science anyone?) and helped me in my graduate studies.
Certainly better for research and academic exploration then for practitioners.
Book Description
The Oxford Handbook of Strategy is a two-volume set on the key subject areas and issues currently under discussion in the field of strategy. It unites an international team of contributors who are all recognised authorities on the topic of their chapter. The Handbook will be of considerable value to researchers, graduate students, and teachers whose interest in the subject area has advanced beyond that of the traditional textbooks, and to managers and consultants who seek an authoritative, accessible, and up-to-date discussion of the fundamentals of strategy. Volume Two looks at the challenges and choices for the corporation under four main headings: Corporate Strategy (Diversification, The Role of the Centre, Mergers and Acquisitions, Strategic Alliances and Networks); International Strategy; Strategies of Organizational Change (Managing Change, Turnarounds, Organizational Structure, Organizational Renewal); and Strategic Flexibility and Uncertainty (Game Theory, A Real Options Framework, Strategic Flexibility). It concerns itself primarily with the multi-business unit corporation, how it decides which businesses to be in, and how to run them.
Book Description
Hailed by Choice as "a concise, exceptionally clear exposition of the transformation of Mexican economic policy since 1982," and selected as one of the magazine's outstanding books, the first edition of Mexico: The Remaking of an Economy was published at the height of "Mexico-optimism." In 1992, most analysts and observers viewed Mexico as a model reformer among developing nations. Two years later, however, Mexico was on the verge of a financial collapse; indeed, even before the crisis of 1995, Mexico's performance was lackluster. Nora Lustig updates the original book and analyzes the possible explanations for Mexico's relative slow growth in the early nineties and the causes of the peso crisis at the end of 1994. In addition to describing the financial rescue package, she examines why the recession in 1995 was so sharp despite sizeable international assistance, the factors behind Mexico's relatively swift recovery, the evolution of poverty and inequality in Mexico, and the relationship between economic openness and inequality. Finally, Lustig highlights Mexico's economic prospects in coming years. Besides contributing to our understanding of a traumatic experience in Mexico's recent history, Lustig's analysis yields helpful insights for other reforming economies around the globe.

Impossible to Transform Creative Genius from one media onto another.......2007-03-28
It is difficult to explain Creative Concepts built for and on an Interactive platform in a "Book". The attached CD was helpful but you keep flipping back and forth between formats so that the flow of thought is difficult to continue. Overall the book gives Interactive advertising protogees a great glance into the vast world of possibilities the Internet opens. For Interactive novices - nice but not really groundbreaking.

Tell me something I didn't know.......2007-02-12
This book is very wordy and really doesn't tell you much. The entire thing can be condensed down to just a few pages of content that actually has value.
Outstanding all in one team training and handling guidelines.......1998-12-06
This is the first book on work team or any kind of teams that acknowledges how difficult and trying team work and team management can be. It's full of useful suggestions and insightful thinking. It's well written and not a checklist type of book but one which really explores things like conflict and the key kinds of things teams come up against. As a manager who workes with teams all the time, I highly recommend it. I am buying one for all my supervisors and all my teams.
