Metal-Catalysis in Industrial Organic Processes (Hardcover, and): Gian Paolo Chiusoli, Peter M. Maitlis Metal-Catalysis in Industrial Organic Processes (Hardcover, and)

Catalysis underpins most modern industrial organic processes. It has become an essential tool in creating a 'greener' chemical industry by replacing more traditional stoichiometric reactions, which have high energy consumption and high waste production, with mild processes which increasingly resemble Nature's enzymes. Metal-Catalysis in Industrial Organic Processes considers the major areas of the field and discusses the logic of using catalysis in industrial processes. The book provides information on oxidation, hydrogenation, carbonylation, C-C bond formation, metathesis and polymerization processes, as well as on the mechanisms involved. In addition two appendices offer a concise treatment of homogeneous and heterogenous catalysis. Numerous exercises referring to problems of catalytic processes, and research perspectives complete the book. This definitive reference source, written by practising experts in the field, provides detailed and up-to-date information on key aspects of metal catalysis.

The Changing Organization - Agency Theory in a Cross-Cultural Context (Hardcover): Kaijun Guo, Maurice Yolles, Gerhard Fink,... The Changing Organization - Agency Theory in a Cross-Cultural Context (Hardcover)
Kaijun Guo, Maurice Yolles, Gerhard Fink, Paul Iles
R3,866 Discovery Miles 38 660 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

The Changing Organization provides a multidisciplinary approach for studying the management of change under conditions of complexity. Single-discipline approaches frequently miss essential elements that reduce the possibility of coherence within a multi-agency organizational setting. Combining a systems and cybernetic 'living system' perspective, Guo, Yolles, Fink, and Iles offer a new agency paradigm designed to model, diagnose and analyse complex, real-world situations. Its capacity to anticipate patterns of behaviour provides useful means by which the origin of crises can be understood, and resolutions reflected upon. Scholars and graduate students in fields as diverse as management, politics, anthropology and psychology will find numerous applications for this book when considering socio-political and organizational change, and it offers an invaluable guide for consultants who may wish to apply advanced techniques of contextual analysis to real-world situations.

Gerhard Finks meisterhafte Prosa-Neuubersetzung 19 n. Chr. beendete der Tod Vergils Arbeit am Nationalepos der Romer: Nach der Flucht aus dem brennenden Troja verschlagt es Aeneas nach Karthago. Konigin Dido verliebt sich in den Fremden, verflucht ihn aber und totet sich selbst, als er aufbricht, um gemass der Weisung der Gotter die Stadt Rom zu grunden. Die Prosaubersetzung Gerhard Finks setzt neue Massstabe; seine 2002 erschienene Horaz-Ubertragung glanzt laut FAZ durch -Einfachheit, Direktheit und Genauigkeit-. Ubersetzt und herausgegeben von Gerhard Fink."

Seine subtile Ironie, auch Selbstironie, liess Quintus Horatius Flaccus (65-8 v. Chr.) zum Meister der genuin romischen Dichtungsform der Satiren (satura) werden. Die Scharfe seines Vorgangers Lucilius wie die des Juvenal, der ihm folgen sollte, sind Horaz freilich fremd: ridentem dicere verum (lachend - aber ohne zu verletzen - will er die Wahrheit sagen). Durch bewusste Regelverstosse (einsilbige Worter am Schluss, Gebrauch umgangssprachlicher Wendungen u.a.) verlieren die Hexameter ihre gravitatische Art, und die Verse platschern als reizvolles Geplauder dahin, denen man die sorgfaltige Durcharbeitung und Stilisierung kaum anmerkt. In den Epistulae, seinem Alterswerk, gibt sich Horaz gereift, ein Wahrheitssucher mochte er werden und wendet sich popularphilosophischen Fragen und literarischen Problemen zu. De arte poetica, die dritte Epistel des zweiten Briefe-Buches, kreist um Fragen des Stils und der Charakterzeichnung."

Forty years after Ziegler's discovery of the "Aufbaureaktion" and low-pressure ethene polymerization, transition metal catalyzed olefin and diolefin polymerization continues to represent one of the most active and exciting areas. Since the 1980s, outstanding scientific innovations and process improvements have revolutionized polyolefin technology and greatly simplified polymerization processes. Well-defined catalyst systems are now at hand and facilitate the understanding of basic reaction mechanisms and correlations between catalyst structures, polymer microstructures, and polymer properties. This book reviews some of the modern approaches in organometallic chemistry, Ziegler-Natta catalysis, polymerization processes, design of novel materials, and the modelling in catalyst and process development.

Senecas Briefe an seinen Freund Lucilius sind eine Einfuhrung in die stoische Philosophie. Dabei strebt der Autor keine systematische Darstellung an; ihm geht es darum, Wege zur philosophischen Bewaltigung konkreter Probleme des menschlichen Lebens aufzuzeigen. Themen wie Einsamkeit, Krankheit, der Tod beruhren uns in gleicher Weise wie die Menschen vor 2000 Jahren. "Du entsinnst Dich doch noch, welche Freude Du empfandest, als Du die Toga des Knaben ab- und die des Mannes anlegtest und man Dich aufs Forum fuhrte. Erwarte eine noch grossere, wenn Du knabenhaften Sinn ablegst und die Philosophie Dich unter die Manner aufnimmt."

Dieses Buch ist das Ergebnis mehIjahriger Zusammenarbeit der Autoren bei der Bera- tung westlicher Unternehmen, die sich in den benachbarten Staaten im UEbergang zur Marktwirtschaft durch den Kauf von Anteilen oder ganzen Unternehmen engagieren wollen. Es bildet einen kleinen Ausschnitt aus der gemeinsamen Tatigkeit, die sich von volkswirtschaftlicher Analyse uber Marktforschung und Feasibility Studies bis zur Mitar- beit bei der Bewertung oestlicher Unternehmen erstreckte. G. Fink hatte die Idee zu diesem Projekt, das dankenswerter Weise vom Jubilaumsfonds der Oesterreichischen Nationalbank finanziert wurde (projektnummer 3824), und uber- nahm die Projektleitung. H. Aigner steuerte seine praktische Erfahrung und die in vielen Jahren erworbenen theoretischen Kenntnisse bei und konzipierte die Rohfassung des Leitfadens zur Unternehmensbewertung. S. Barisitz fuhFte Interviews mit 25 Unterneh- mensberatern, von denen insbesondere GRTlPrice Waterhouse ein umfangreiches Fall- beispiel zur Verfugung gestellt hat. Die Bereitschaft der interviewten Wirtschaftstreu- hander, Wirtschaftsprufer und Unternehmensberater, die Autoren an ihren Erfahrungen teilhaben zu lassen, gibt diesem Buch die besondere Wurze. S. Barisitz konzipierte die Rohfassung der Kapitel 1-5, er trug somit die grosse Last des Schreibens. Das gesamte Manuskript wurde von den drei Autoren mehrfach gemeinsam uberarbeitet. Die aus verschiedenen Federn stammenden Texte wurden harmonisiert, erganzt und ver- tieft. Hilfreiche Hinweise der Professoren Anton Egger, Wirtschaftsuniversitat Wien, und Peter Swoboda, Universitat Graz, wurden eingearbeitet. Diesen bei den sowie allen In- terviewpartnern gebuhrt der besondere Dank der Autoren, die jedoch die Verantwortung fur allfallige Fehler, von denen sie hoffen, alle ausgemerzt zu haben, gemeinsam tragen.

Creating a Generative Capability for Mindscape Theory (Paperback): Gerhard Fink, Maurice Yolles Creating a Generative Capability for Mindscape Theory (Paperback)
Gerhard Fink, Maurice Yolles
R296 Discovery Miles 2 960 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Understanding the nature of durable social groups and their potential for patterns of behaviour provides an interesting question in social psychology that becomes more pertinent to societies when it involves the possible anticipation of behavioural conduct and misconduct of collective groups (like organisations or nations. Mindscape theory is a cognitive approach that offers a powerful way of generating anticipation for behavior. However it does not have any theoretically generative capability. A cybernetic agency model is offered that is able to respond to this need, and extend the utility of mindscape theory.
