This clear and coherent book introduces agent-based modelling (ABM)
to those who are not familiar with nor have been previously exposed
to computational simulation. Featuring examples, cases and models,
the book illustrates how ABM can, and should, be considered as a
useful approach and technique for the study of management and
organisational systems. Davide Secchi begins by explaining what ABM
has to offer as opposed to other techniques, emphasising its
suitability to the study of complex social systems. While
dissecting the core components of the approach, he introduces key
elements and mechanisms with a practice oriented approach rather
than insisting solely on logic and theory. With an emphasis on
applications and using examples from NetLogo - one of the most
widely used agent-based software platforms - the book guides the
reader through a step-by-step process on how to develop a
computational simulation. Featuring a hands-on applied approach
that makes a difficult topic easy for non-modellers, How Do I
Develop an Agent-Based Model? will be a key resource for business
and management Masters-level students embarking on a dissertation
project. It will also be a useful reference for PhD students in the
field, as well as a starting point for academics who would like to
begin using ABM in their research.

a serial killer is picking off her former classmates, Serena's life

killer's hit list? Can she trust Dominic with the truth before it's
too late?

In this small but powerful book, renowned theologian Stanley
Hauerwas offers a moving reflection on Jesus's final words from the
cross. Touching in original and surprising ways on subjects such as
praying the Psalms and our need to be remembered by Jesus, Hauerwas
emphasizes Christ's humanity as well as the sheer "differentness"
of God. Ideal for personal devotion during Lent and throughout the
church year, this book offers a transformative reading of Jesus's
words that goes directly to the heart of the gospel. Now in
paperback.
Brandon O'Brien helps pastors and church leaders understand that a
smaller church is sometimes better than a big one. He demonstrates
the strengths of small congregations, including that today's church
"shoppers" want services that are local, personal, and intimate.
Also, small churches provide space to nurture close relationships
across age and lifestyle barriers, and they facilitate a higher
level of commitment from laypeople. And small church budgets are
often more effective because of greater efficiency. The
Strategically Small Church will encourage small-church pastors in
their ministries and challenge them to play to their strengths.
There are a lot of personality and intelligence tests out there designed to label you and put you in a particular box. But Dr. Caroline Leaf says there's much more to you than a personality profile can capture. In fact, you cannot be categorized!
In this fascinating book, she takes readers through seven steps to rediscover and unlock their unique design--the brilliantly original way each person thinks, feels, relates, and makes choices--freeing them from comparison, envy, and jealousy, which destroy brain tissue. Readers learn to be aware of what's going on in their own minds and bodies, to lean in to their own experience rather than trying to forcefully change it, and to redefine what success means to them. Released from the suffocating box of expectations, they'll embrace their true identity and develop a clear sense of divine purpose in their lives.
Knowing and understanding our identity empowers our choices. Unlocking one's you quotient is not optional--it is essential.
