Strategy Mapping: An Interventionist Examination of a Homebuilder's Performance Measurement and Incentive Systems【電子書籍】[ Kenneth Merchant ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞What part does customer and employee satisfaction play in overall business success? Management Accountants developing business models must consider this question, especially if they are taking the popular "balanced scorecard" or "strategy mapping" approaches to performance measurement. When doing so, stating cause-and-effect relationships between measurable factors like satisfaction and profitability is common practice. However, few companies test their own hypotheses. If the links are incorrect, these models can actually guide the firm down a path to failure. Strategy Mapping: An Interventionist Examination of a Homebuilder's Performance Measurement and Incentive Systems reveals the findings of state-of-the-art interventionist research on a major US homebuilder. The core claims of this company's business model were positive effects in the future due to improvements in customer and employee satisfaction. Tests were made on the validity of these claims to discover how much we can rely on these factors to improve performance. This report also examines how effective various measurement alternatives are through analysis of data compiled by different consulting companies. The results reveal that the links between satisfaction and performance is less strong and more complex than the company had assumed: these measures cannot be relied upon to guarantee increased performance. Managers must have a sophisticated understanding of performance measurement systems and to test their strategy maps empirically, rather than relying on their intuitions. This report demonstrates how you can achieve both. - State-of-the-art interventionist research: new method in which researchers interact with the subject of the research, monitoring the effects of their input - Helps managers protect their businesses from bad business models through sophisticated understanding of likely causes of success - Shows managers how to analyse data in balanced scorecards and strategy maps to draw reliable conclusions to make the best decisions for their business＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	5,800円

Ball engages with a pivotal question in evolutionary biology, examining the principles surrounding Lamarckian inheritance versus Darwinian selection.

F for Failure A Critical Examination of the Ineradicable Defects of Canadian Education【電子書籍】[ J.E.G. Dixon ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Today’s curricula comprise many different subjects, most of which are neither useful nor valuable, and which have no relationship to each other The vast majority of school subjects have little relevance to an understanding of the world we live in or their part in it; and are not designed to prepare or equip the pupils for subsequent professions or occupations, The courses have little bearing on the development of the intelligence, which it seems to me should be one of the primary purposes of education. Knowledge in itself has little to do with education. Official statement: “The following goals reflect and are represented in the prescribed learning outcomes for Social Studies K to 7 in each curriculum organizer. Through their participation in social studies, students will be encouraged and enabled to understand and prepare their roles, rights, and responsibilities within their family, the community, Canada, and the world.” No student is allowed to fail a course or an assignment, because it would inflict a trauma on them and damage their self-esteem beyond repair. Equality reigns! Teachers are discouraged in some schools from using the terms ‘wife’ and ‘husband’ as relics of an age of inequality The lack of curiosity, the lack of a desire to learn, and apathy in the face of their ignorance, is the gravest possible indictment against parents, teachers, teachers’ schools, and education administrators. There are few problem children. There are children with problems Their problems are the parents. There are problem parents in the thousands. Their first sin is their failure to understand that their primary role in upbringing is as teachers. Unschooled parents are the greatest enemies of education and of their children’s success in life. Doctors and pediatricians are prescribing drugs for children supposedly ‘suffering’ from such disorders, drugs with names like antipsychotics and psychotropics. A pronounced feminization of the schools is everywhere in evidence. This triumph of the feminist movement in Canada has gone so far that many boys, precisely because they evince signs of unruliness or sheer boredom in class, are treated with a drug to feminize them. In anitoba ... there have been four ministers of education since 2000. The figures for Alberta are six ministers in the past fourteen years. In Ontario we find there have been no fewer than seven ministers of education since 2000. I have received no answers. The New Order. The Middle Ages was once the glory of education. They established sound priorities in learning, and their intellectual pursuits were informed by the highest standards; and because they insisted, first, on the essential tools of learning, which they called the trivium, which is the mastery of one’s own language. Participation is of the essence of education, participation on both the individual and the class levels. What is the best way in which to encourage participation? Why, to introduce topics and themes with which they are familiar or with which they can identify. Children need to be introduced at an early age to the arts of discussionーof forming and defending one’s opinion, and of entering into a well-mannered discourse with others who have different opinionsーyet opinions which are, and recognized to be, equally valid. I would introduce bridge. It demands the disciplines of control and of self-examination before attributing mistakes to one’s partner. There can be few more important lessons for life: hesitate, and look within, before blaming another. Criticism is justly applied not only to the cultural creations of mankind, but to his social and political activities. Criticism, thus conceived and practiced, is one of the five essential pillars of Civilization. I am standing the curriculum on its head. Today the pupil is forced by that hydra-headed beast called Authority to study a range of useless subjects until finally, after many wasted years, he is permitted to choose an area of concentration.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	487円

Christian Science versus Pantheism ー Christian Science versus Pantheism Enriched edition. A Philosophical Examination of Faith and Healing in the Late 19th Century【電子書籍】[ Mary Baker Eddy ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "Christian Science versus Pantheism," Mary Baker Eddy presents a compelling exploration of the essential distinctions between Christian Science and pantheistic beliefs. Through a rigorous blending of theology and metaphysical inquiry, Eddy articulates her understanding of God as a personal, omnipotent being, contrasting this with pantheism's conception of the divine as a more abstract, impersonal force. The work is notable for its clear, systematic structure, reflecting Eddy's conviction that spiritual truths can be understood through reasoned discourse. Her style is marked by eloquent prose, characterized by both fervent conviction and scholarly precision, which invites readers to engage deeply with her arguments. This book serves as both a polemic and a clarion call for an authentic understanding of Christian Science within the broader spiritual landscape of the late 19th century, a time of significant religious transformation in America. Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910), the founder of the Christian Science movement, was deeply influenced by her own spiritual experiences and the prevailing religious philosophies of her time. Her dedication to seeking spiritual truth stemmed from a personal struggle with illness and her eventual recovery through a profound spiritual awakening. This transformational journey led her to challenge prevailing notions of God and reality, ultimately culminating in her establishment of Christian Science as a distinct religious movement. Readers seeking a deeper understanding of the philosophical and theological underpinnings of Christian Science will find "Christian Science versus Pantheism" both enlightening and thought-provoking. Eddy's work not only delineates foundational beliefs that contrast sharply with pantheism but also invites readers to reflect on their own spiritual understandings.

This expensive, impersonal system, he believes may not be in the best interest either of the nation or of the people it purports to heal.＜/p＞＜p＞As the title suggests, it appears that healthcare has been turned upside down to serve the administrators of the system and away from its basic function of offering the best care for patients. With this basic principle in mind, the topics presented in this book provide and discuss healthcare statistics and alterations to the language of medicine. The chapters themselves examine the transformations to the medical school, the clinic and the office, thehospital, and the practice. Additional chapters discuss the role of the payers, public health research, as well as pandemics, including COVID-19, the advantages and disadvantages of socialized medicine, as well as the broken doctor/patient relationship. Finally, Dr. Buchwald offers thoughts on the areas in which future healthcare efforts can most fruitfully be expended.＜/p＞＜p＞Analysing today’s pervading administrative domination of essentially every facet of healthcare, ＜em＞Healthcare Upside Down＜/em＞ thoughtfully considers the variety of ways in which we can turn the current healthcare system right-side up to serve those who should be the ultimate beneficiaries ? all of us as patients, now and in the future.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	5,469円

Concussion Management for Wheelchair Athletes Evaluation and Examination【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book arises from the challenges and difficulties involved in the evaluation and management of concussions in wheelchair athletes. Concussions are most readily identified in the ambulatory population via identifying gross motor instability or when athletes lose their balance and stumble after a blow to the head or neck region. Because wheelchair athletes participate in sport while sitting down and using a wheelchair, clinicians must be extra attentive to identify a potential concussion. Once a potential concussion is identified, there are many challenges in evaluation of the wheelchair athlete population due to their comorbidities. At baseline, they may have signs and symptoms that mimic a concussion, and their impairments can also alter their cognitive and balance assessments. Therefore, it is critical to make a distinction between these athletes’ baseline comorbid impairments and potential new exam findings in a concussion.＜/p＞＜p＞Filling in a critical gap in the literature, this is a concise pocket guide for any clinician, trainer, or rehabilitation specialist who is involved in wheelchair sports. It focuses on the unique challenges in evaluating a concussion in the wheelchair athlete, including baseline testing, the process of evaluating the signs and symptoms of a concussion, cognitive and vestibular examination, new clinical techniques specific to wheelchair athletes, and the return to play process. A Concussion Management Program (CMP) for use on the sideline as well as in the office is included.＜/p＞＜p＞Practical and timely, ＜em＞Concussion Management for Wheelchair Athletes＜/em＞ is a valuable resource to increase awareness, provide guidance on the unique challenges within this population, and generate interest in future research and investigation.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	9,723円
A Vindication of the Presbyteriall-Government and Ministry A Detailed Examination of Presbyterial Church Government【電子書籍】[ Ministers and Elders of the London Provinciall Assembly ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In 'A Vindication of the Presbyteriall-Government and Ministry,' the Ministers and Elders of the London Provincial Assembly articulate a compelling defense of Presbyterian governance amidst the tumultuous socio-political landscape of 17th-century England. The work employs a mix of theological argumentation and pastoral concern, emphasizing the scriptural foundations of Presbyterian polity while countering emerging dissent against organized ecclesiastical authority. The text is marked by a rhetorical style that is both polemical and didactic, reflecting the urgent need for clarity in a time of ecclesiastical upheaval, particularly during the English Civil War when religious factions were vying for influence. The authors, a collective of influential clerics from the London Provincial Assembly, were deeply immersed in the theological debates and political struggles of their time. Their backgrounds as ministers, alongside their active roles in the formation of the Westminster Assembly, positioned them uniquely to address the challenges faced by the Presbyterian Church. Their advocacy arose not only from a commitment to their doctrinal beliefs but also from a desire to safeguard the stability of the Church amid rising sectarianism. 'A Vindication of the Presbyteriall-Government and Ministry' is essential reading for those interested in the evolution of ecclesiastical governance and the historical context of Protestantism in England. Scholars and practitioners alike will find the work's rigorous defense of Presbyterian principles invaluable, as it offers rich insights into the intersection of faith, governance, and community in a pivotal era of church history.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	310円

Life in the Shadow: An Examination of the Minor Foreign Relations of the DPRK - North Korea Modern Pariah State, Iran, Cuba, Europe, Syria, Africa, India, Strategic Direction, Allies and Partners【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This excellent report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. At some point, every child is warned to remain mindful of the company kept. The idea behind this age-old admonishment is that people, in the absence of other information, often judge others by those with whom they are associated. Of course, individuals have a range of company they keep. If this range is viewed in a linear manner, it likely spans from bitter enemy to close friend. Where a given relationship falls on this linear scale may indicate a number of things to outsiders. Contained within this admonishment, like most venerable nuggets of wisdom, some element of truth likely exists. If this old adage is accepted, then perhaps it has utility in providing additional information about a state. This type of inquiry may have particular value and is the type of analysis that must be employed when examining an opaque state like the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). With a state as closed and as secretive as the DPRK every bit of information that can be gathered is useful to the international community's understanding of this outlier state.＜br /＞ Using this idea as a launching point, this thesis explores the diplomatic relations of the DPRK with an emphasis on the minor diplomatic relations of the state. Minor, for purposes of this thesis, does not speak to durability of the bond between two states. Instead, it simply means those countries with which the DPRK has relations that are not part of what is referred to as the Big Four Plus One (i.e., China, Japan, South Korea, Russia, and the United States). This thesis's core research questions are the following. What common characteristics may be identified in diplomatic relations of the DPRK, with a particular emphasis on its minor relations, and what insights can they offer into the internal and external workings of the state? Based on these insights what can be surmised regarding the strategic direction of the DPRK? Does current DPRK diplomatic outreach predict a more belligerent, defiant North Korea? Or, perhaps, a state becoming a more enmeshed-responsible player in the international system? Are emerging or new allies and partners appearing while other stalwarts of the DPRK state begin to wane?＜/p＞＜p＞INTRODUCTION * A. MAJOR RESEARCH QUESTION * B. IMPORTANCE * C.

The Role of the Soviet Union in the Second World War A Re-examination【電子書籍】[ Boris Sokolov ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book investigates several controversial issues regarding the role of the Soviet Union and the performance of the Soviet government and Red Army, to which the author provides some provocative answers. The primary question explored by the author, however, regards the effectiveness of both the Red Army and of the Soviet military economy.＜/p＞＜p＞Dr. Sokolov argues that the chief defect of the Soviet military economy was the disproportionate emphasis on the production of tanks and aircraft at the expense of transportation means and the means of command and control. This leads the author to look at the role of Lend-Lease during the war. Through the delivery of radio sets, trucks, jeeps, locomotives, fuel, explosives and so on, the author concludes that Lend-Lease was critical to the Red Army, and that the Soviet Union would not have been able to wage a long war against Germany without the Lend-Lease supplies - a conclusion that defies decades of Soviet claims to the contrary.＜/p＞＜p＞Finally, the author looks at the still very controversial and hot topic of Red Army losses in the war, which was taboo for decades, arguing that this is an effective measure of the Red Army's military performance. He and other scholars have estimated that the Red Army's losses were on the scale of 27 million, three times larger than the official estimates, and approximately 10 times greater than the German losses on the Eastern Front. He argues that such horrendous casualties and such an unfavorable ratio for the Red Army were the result of the relatively low value placed on human life in both the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union, and the much more destructive nature of the Soviet totalitarian regime as compared with the Third Reich, which cowed the Soviet generals and officers into total subservience. Due to the elimination of all political opposition and the total control over people's lives, soldiers and civilians could not protest against the crude tactics that resulted in such a very high rate of losses.＜/p＞＜p＞Dr. Boris Sokolov is a prolific author and a member of the Russian branch of PEN International, which celebrates literature and promotes freedom of expression. In 2008, Dr. Sokolov was forced to resign as Professor of Social Anthropology from his post at the Russian State Social University in Moscow at the demand of President Medvedev's administration after publishing an article about the 2008 Russian-Georgian War. The author of 69 books (as of 2012), his work has focused on the history of the Second World War and has also written biographies of such prominent military and political leaders as Bulgakov, Stalin, Molotov, Beria, Tukhachevsky, Rokossovsky and Zhukov. In addition, he has written numerous articles on history, philology, political science and economics. A prominent specialist in the problems of military losses, military economy and strategy, he has given lectures in Russia, Estonia, Latvia and Denmark, and his books and articles have been translated into numerous languages. He currently resides in Moscow and is working on a biography of Marshal Rodion Malinovsky.＜/p＞＜p＞Stuart Britton is a freelance translator and editor residing in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. He has been responsible for making a growing number of Russian titles available to readers of the English language, consisting primarily of memoirs by Red Army veterans and recent historical research concerning the Eastern Front of the Second World War and Soviet air operations in the Korean War. Notable recent titles include Valeriy Zamulin's award-winning 'Demolishing the Myth: The Tank Battle at Prokhorovka, Kursk, July 1943: An Operational Narrative ' (Helion, 2011), Boris Gorbachevsky's 'Through the Maelstrom: A Red Army Soldier's War on the Eastern Front 1942-45' (University Press of Kansas, 2008) and Yuri Sutiagin's and Igor Seidov's 'MiG Menace Over Korea: The Story of Soviet Fighter Ace Nikolai Sutiagin' (Pen & Sword Aviation, 2009). Future books will include Svetlana Gerasimova's analysis of the prolonged and savage fighting against Army Group Center in 1942-43 to liberate the city of Rzhev, and more of Igor Seidov's studies of the Soviet side of the air war in Korea, 1951-1953.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	2,113円
Critical Examination of the Life of St. Paul Enriched edition. Revealing Contradictions and Insights in Paul's Life and Teachings【電子書籍】[ Peter Annet ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "Critical Examination of the Life of St. Paul," Peter Annet embarks on a meticulous analysis of one of Christianity's most pivotal figures, employing a critical and rationalist lens. Annet's work is characterized by a blend of historical scrutiny and theological examination, challenging traditional narratives surrounding the Apostle Paul. Through a combination of textual analysis and philosophical inquiry, Annet interrogates the authenticity of Paul's epistles, his doctrinal contributions, and his influence on early Christianity, situating his life within the sociopolitical contexts of the Roman Empire. Written in an accessible yet scholarly style, Annet's exploration reflects the Age of Enlightenment's emphasis on reason and evidence, inviting readers to rethink established perspectives on this foundational religious figure. Peter Annet (1693-1769) was an English deist and critic, known for his commitment to rational thought and skepticism regarding orthodox religious beliefs. His engagement with theological matters was not merely academic; it stemmed from a broader Enlightenment critique of dogmatic religions. Annet's own religious journey and societal context played a significant role in shaping his critical approach, which sought to reconcile faith with reason and challenge the prevailing religious doctrines of his time. This book is highly recommended for scholars, students, and anyone interested in religious studies, offering a fresh perspective that transcends mere biography to engage with the theological implications of Paul's life. Annet's rational approach makes the text a stimulating read, encouraging readers to question the accepted narratives of religious history while providing a rich understanding of St. Paul's enduring legacy. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - Handーpicked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	150円
