Guide to Software Systems Development Connecting Novel Theory and Current Practice【電子書籍】[ Clive Rosen ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book argues that the key problems of software systems development (SSD) are socio-technical rather than purely technical in nature. Software systems are unique. They are the only human artefacts that are both intangible and determinant. This presents unprecedented problems for the development process both in determining what is required and how it is developed. Primarily this is a problem of communications between stakeholders and developers, and of communications within the development team. Current solutions are not only inadequate in expressing the technical problem, they also evade the communications problems almost entirely.</p> <p>Whilst the book addresses the theoretical aspects of the process, its fundamental philosophy is anchored in the practical problems of everyday software development. It therefore offers both a better understanding of the problems of SSD and practical suggestions of how to deal with those problems. It is intended as a guide for practising IT project managers, particularly those who are relatively new to the position or do not have a strong IT development background. The book will also benefit students in computing and computer-related disciplines who need to know how to develop high quality systems.</p> <p>Software systems development (particularly of large projects) has a notoriously poor track record of delivering projects on time, on budget, and of meeting user needs. Proponents of software engineering suggest that this is because too few project managers actually comply with the disciplines demanded of the process. It is time to ask the question, if this is the case, why might this be? Perhaps instead, it is not the project managers who are wrong, but the definition of the process. The new understanding of the SSD presented here offers alternative models that can help project managers address the difficulties they face and better achieve the targets they are set.</p> <p>This book argues that time is up for the software engineering paradigm of SSD and that it should be replaced with a socio-technical paradigm based on open systems thinking.</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。 6,076円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Why bother to write an outline?</p> <p>Many beginners don’t see the need for an outline. So they write Chapter 1 at the top and start. Most don’t get far then, or they do a very ‘beginner’s’ job of what they do write.</p> <p>The great majority of established authors still write an outline for every new book they attempt. The more books they’ve written, the more they understand the importance of outlining first.</p> <p>Outlining creates a tool. It is a very valuable tool that will keep you going. And further breaking it down into chapters is an even better tool.</p> <p>Many new writers start with an idea for a book and end with a short story. An idea alone is not enough. Writing an outline in the way described in Book 1 of this series, develops your story. It turns your idea into something much more detailed. It gradually grows your idea into a complex series of events that turn your idea, and your short story, into a real book length story.</p> <p>Writing a book is a journey. But you will get lost if you don’t know where you are going.</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。 442円

How to Start Writing Your Novel【電子書籍】[ Malcolm Macdonald ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A practical guide for would-be novelists on that tricky first hurdle - the opening line and then the opening chapter of a novel. Novelist Malcolm Macdonald wrote 33 historical novels, published by Knopf, Simon & Shuster, St Martin's Press, and Sourcebooks in the USA and by Cape, Hodder, Headline, Piatkus and Severn House in the UK so he knows a thing or two about what works and doesn't work in the delicate art of capturing a new reader's attention and then holding it fast through that rollercoaster ride toward "The End." By way of example he takes the first chapters of each of those novels, explains (without giving away any plot) what the novel as a whole was about, how the first chapter could best set the scene, and how the opening sentence could subtly suggest the tone and theme of the whole. In his preface he sets out the broad principles of this strategy and analyses some famous first lines from great novels of the past. And finally - because he started his literary career as an editor in a London publishing house, he gives some inside guidance on how to shape and punctuate your text, how to avoid certain well known pitfalls, and some elementary grammatical howlers it is best to avoid.</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。 367円

Lean in a High-Variability Business A Graphic Novel about Lean and People at Zingerman’s Mail Order【電子書籍】[ Eduardo Lander ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>"John Dewey famously pointed out, 'We don't learn from experience. We learn from reflecting on experience.' Here's your chance to learn as the three authors reflect on the (successful) struggle to build a Lean production and management system at Zingerman's Mail Order. Thousands of people visit and benchmark ZMO. This book delivers the backstory in a richly illustrated way."</em></p> <p>-- Mike Rother, author of the bestselling books <em>Toyota Kata</em> and <em>The Toyota Kata Practice Guide</em></p> <p>This clever and highly engaging graphic novel details a story about one organization’s Lean journey with inspiration from the Toyota Way.</p> <p>Over the years, common misunderstandings about what Lean is, what the journey is like, and how to advance have proliferated. Often, these misunderstandings come from the way people simplistically talk and think about Lean as if it is some concrete thing that you insert into an organization and step back to watch the results.</p> <p>The authors, however, view the organization as a living system with interacting parts and constant exposure to the environment. It is dynamic, so it’s hard to predict what obstacles you will face next. Just when you think you have it solved, new challenges arise from the market, competitors, government regulations, and every direction you turn to. When you look at your organization in this way, you see Lean through a different lens. The goal is to make your processes and people into a more adaptive system so you can navigate through all the complexity and uncertainty to continually achieve your goals. This is how Toyota views things and they summarize the Toyota Way as continuous improvement and respect for people. Each person becomes a partner in struggling to learn and adapt, and specific tools are used in very different ways throughout the company to accomplish their goals.</p> <p>The story presented here focuses on a small company called Zingerman’s Mail Order (ZMO). Tom Root was one of the founders of this spin-off of the Zingerman’s delicatessen. The deli was founded to bring high-quality artisanal food to Ann Arbor, Michigan.</p> <p>The purpose of this book is not to provide a "recipe for implementation" ? the authors want you to get a feeling for the struggle, for the learning process. They explain and demonstrate many Lean tools within the context of the journey and how they were adapted for this particular business. Toyota kata became the centerpiece of developing scientific thinking skills to begin to bring continuous improvement to life.</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。 5,697円

The Varieties of Leadership at Novarum Pharmaceuticals A Novel【電子書籍】[ Robert Pernick ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Storytelling is a time-honored way of educating. Case studies attempt to engage students, but are limited because they do not develop characters or settings. What is needed is a full-length novel with complex, sympathetic characters and a story grounded in leadership and organizational behavior theories. Novarum Pharmaceuticals is such a book. Set in a large U.S. firm, it follows the struggles of an executive vice president trying to launch an innovative joint venture with a Middle Eastern company. The story proceeds from Nia Stevens’ first strategic proposal, through various triumphs and setbacks, to a final crisis in which she must choose between what she views as her career and her principles. The main characters reveal a mix of motives and perceptions about each other and doing business in the Middle East. They converge and clash and their actions change as the story unfolds. Neither a tragedy nor a comedy, the book is a plausible depiction of life within a modern corporation. Novarum Pharmaceuticals embodies all the elements of a novel, but unlike novels this one contains an index that professors and students alike can use to tie characters’ actions to theory. The companion instructor’s resource manual provides an extensive discussion framework for the professor, with background material on the pharmaceutical industry, resumes of the principle characters, questions and suggested answers for every chapter, descriptions of theory and concepts, learning goals for each chapter and a bibliography of organization-related fiction. Novarum Pharmaceuticals will make a refreshing supplemental text in many courses in the undergraduate and graduate degree programs in business administration, psychology, sociology, organization development, public administration, healthcare management and educational administration. Immersion in this book gives students a deeper appreciation of the often conflicted nature of worker motivation, better preparing them for navigating their own careers. General business readers interested in the consequences of questionable ethical behavior and bad leadership will also find the book entertaining and useful.</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。 11,072円

Exit Strategy A Robert Fairchild Novel【電子書籍】[ Matthew McCleery ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Norwegian tanker king Coco Jacobson has a big problem. A carbon dioxide problem. When IMO regulations and environmental concerns cause a German bank to sell his $750 million credit facility to a New York distressed fund, the shipping magnate is forced to make a tough decision: put in another $100 million to defend his fossil fuel dependent company from a hostile takeover - or toss the keys to the hedge fund and disappear on his yacht. But it's not that simple. When Coco learns that one of his new lenders is a Sopranos-style operation that doesn't take kindly to losing money, he enlists his estranged CFO, Robert Fairchild, to get creative about saving his fleet - and maybe even the entire shipping industry. <em>Exit Strategy</em> is the third book in The Shipping Man series.</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。 1,383円

The Body Economic Life, Death, and Sensation in Political Economy and the Victorian Novel【電子書籍】[ Catherine Gallagher ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>The Body Economic</em> revises the intellectual history of nineteenth-century Britain by demonstrating that political economists and the writers who often presented themselves as their literary antagonists actually held most of their basic social assumptions in common. Catherine Gallagher demonstrates that political economists and their Romantic and early-Victorian critics jointly relocated the idea of value from the realm of transcendent spirituality to that of organic "life," making human sensations--especially pleasure and pain--the sources and signs of that value. Classical political economy, this book shows, was not a mechanical ideology but a form of nineteenth-century organicism, which put the body and its feelings at the center of its theories, and neoclassical economics built itself even more self-consciously on physiological premises.</p> <p><em>The Body Economic</em> explains how these shared views of life, death, and sensation helped shape and were modified by the two most important Victorian novelists: Charles Dickens and George Eliot. It reveals how political economists interacted crucially with the life sciences of the nineteenth century--especially with psychophysiology and anthropology--producing the intellectual world that nurtured not only George Eliot's realism but also turn-of-the-century literary modernism.</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。 5,341円
