Global Education For Universities and Colleges (Paperback): Jon Schiller Phd Global Education For Universities and Colleges (Paperback)
Jon Schiller Phd
R785 Discovery Miles 7 850 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Your author attended an Alumni Seminar day in 2013 at USC (University of Southern California) where he had received his PhD and taught as an adjunct assistant Professor in Computer science. He received two lectures in person, but both lectures could have been sent by internet as part of Global Education. In that way registered students worldwide could have received the same lectures either in realtime or downloaded using encoded files. Both of these USC lectures were of fascinating topics, but such lectures could be made on a large number of subjects spread out over time to satisfy the requirements of the University in which the student is enrolled. The purpose of this book is to describe how the Internet age requires a vast revision of the University Education System on a global basis. The book will give information on things that can be done and how to do these things to achieve Global Education. Global education means the students can live anywhere and can be enrolled in Universities anywhere and be lectured by the best. One could postulate that, for example, the university of the future will have no library because students will carry it in their pockets; and that there will be no classes, as adaptive, interactive, computer-taught sessions will have taken their place. Lectures will be provided, courtesy of distance learning, by a few world-class professors located around the globe. The University of Arizona offers website degrees so you can live anywhere on Earth and earn website degrees with this university. This book also provides information about Website degrees in the US, Asia and Europe. The rating of the University offering the website degree is important in obtaining a job. So it may be easy to use the University of Arizona for an advanced degree, but earning a degree from a higher ranked university may be worth considering.

Wealth Accumulating to the Few (Paperback): Jon Schiller Phd Wealth Accumulating to the Few (Paperback)
Jon Schiller Phd
R969 Discovery Miles 9 690 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Your author decided to write this book about Wealth Accumulates to the Few when chatting with my son about how he felt after having been laid off from designing the software for the Mars Lander. His response was it caused him to think about social matters while working on a new Space Vehicle as a software consultant. He pointed out the following: During the Industrial Revolution, there has been more and more automation that has meant fewer and fewer human workers were required to produce the goods needed. He also reminded me that the rapid advancements in technology have made the goods needed grow obsolete at a more and more rapid pace. For example, travelers no longer use horse drawn carriages - they use automobiles that travel on the freeways at 75 mph instead of a carriage at 15 or 20 mph. Fewer and fewer people are buying Laptop computers since they can obtain more functions on a Smart Phone for a fraction of the price. In Detroit the automobile factories are almost deserted of human workers since the same jobs can be done better and cheaper by robots. So what is this doing? It is causing the Economic Wealth to accumulate to those few who were able to get in on the profit of one of these activities that generate huge profits. More profit - fewer people to share in the profit - therefore the wealth accumulates to that few.

When I was an Aerospace Executive responsible for overseas sales to Iran and Israel, I had to do a lot of overseas travel by airliner so I wanted to write this book, to learn how airline travel has improved since the mid 1980s. Later the vice-president to whom I reported offered me the Israeli business if I was willing to form my own company. I eagerly accept his offer and established a company specializing in designing Guidance and Control Systems for Military Aircraft, which was basically funded by the profits from the Israeli business. One of the consulting contracts of my company was to spend several months in Taiwan, designing a new guidance and control system for their new Ultra Fighter Aircraft to help defend them against their enemies at that time. ch less expensive than conventional (old-fashioned) At the Autonetics Division of Rockwell I was Chief Engineer responsible for the F111 Avionics system built by General Dynamics - Fort Worth with Avionics supplied by Autonetics. This avionic system included a fly-by wire system with duplicate Airborne Computers to perform all the computations required by the Avionics systems, including the first GPS installed on a military aircraft. A second reason I wanted to write this book is that I learned that the Dreamliner has some of the features first used on the F111 for which I designed the Guidance and Control. This book includes a description of the similar features used by the Dreamliner. I realize that the advent of Nanotechnology used in the Dreamliner electronics, makes it quite different than the electronics of the F111 time period. For example, GPS navigation is included as a function on handheld smartphones in the nanotechnology era rather a PC computer sized box used on the F111. Another important factor is cost: nanotechnology electronics are muelectronics.

DNA Chemistry, DNA Damage and Repair, Aid to Human Health (Paperback): Jon Schiller Phd DNA Chemistry, DNA Damage and Repair, Aid to Human Health (Paperback)
Jon Schiller Phd
R982 Discovery Miles 9 820 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Your author decided to write this book about DNA Chemistry after being invited to a Caltech Associates dinner to hear a speech by Professor Jacqueline Barton, a leader in the study of chemistry of DNA by the Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Department at Caltech where she is Chair of that department. I have included in this book research I discovered taking place after investigating the Internet. As Professor Barton stated in her Associates lecture, DNA can be damaged in the double helical DNA. She and her Caltech research associates are using a base of sensors they design to find where the DNA is damaged and is in need of repair to avoid cancerous mutations. The purpose of this book is to use the Internet to explore what is happening in DNA Chemistry Research. I find much research is taking place and it is exciting to find out about the impact on Human Health in the areas of Cancer and Alzheimer's Disease. We examine in detail what is happening in the areas of DNA damage detection and what is being done to repair the damage.

Washington Political Battles (Paperback): Jon Schiller Phd Washington Political Battles (Paperback)
Jon Schiller Phd
R1,076 Discovery Miles 10 760 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Your author felt the Washington Political Battles were preventing anything from being accomplished in Washington DC. I found out other Americans like me had the same views of the Washington Problem when I attended my wife's High School Alumni meeting and my Caltech Alumni meeting in May 2013. I heard men and women at both alumni meetings saying over and over again: Can't these elected officials in Washington get anything done? It appears these elected officials feel no obligation to solve the problems of the country. They appear to believe we elected them to point fingers at each other rather than do what they are supposed to do. I have tried to find out what is happening in these Washington Political battles by researching the Internet. In this book I tried to present what Washington IS doing instead of their responsible jobs.

A select group of world-class yachtsmen prepare for the Round-the-World Multihull Race, a test to determine not only the best go-fast design but also who is the world's greatest skipper. The challengers have known each other through years of Grand Prix and Olympic sailing competitions. Ronny Kelly, amiable and clever Californian, Paoli Venuzzi, who secretly cheated Kelly out of the gold at the Barcelona Olympics, and the Frenchman Phillippe Matin, holder of many cross-Atlantic speed records, emerge as the top contenders. Their efforts are bankrolled by a variety of international corporations plus a Mafia backed bank. The Mafia schemes to collect millions in gambling and drug peddling profits by pressuring their skipper to smuggle cocaine and to arrange "accidents" during the race. As the race proceeds, the Mafia become more and more desperate to recoup their gambling losses and their attempts become much more than "accidents."

Can the world live without Wikipedia for a day? The shutdown of one of the Internet's most-visited sites is not sitting well with some of its volunteer editors, who say the protest of anti-piracy legislation could threaten the credibility of their work. The protest is aimed at the Stop Online Piracy Act in the House of Representatives and the Protect Intellectual Property Act under consideration in the Senate. Both bills are designed to crack down on sales of pirated American products overseas, and they have the support of the film and music industry. Among the opponents are many Internet companies such as Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Twitter, eBay and AOL. They say the bills would hurt the industry and infringe on free-speech rights

In Iran during the time of the Shah, the American engineer, Brad Kelly, found himself involved in intrigues with the US CIA, the Iranian SAVAK, the Israeli MOSSAD, and the KGB of the old Soviet Union. Like many other American engineers and technicians working on SECRET projects in those days, Brad found cooperative females at every turn. It seemed to come with the overseas assignments. IBEX relates what impact electronic spying can have on world events.

Your author, Dr. Jon Schiller, decided to write this book about walking defects and how to walk normally again after noticing that his daily 3 mile fast walk was not so fast anymore. The 3 mile walk, which normally took 3/4 hour, began to take 1+1/2 hour. In other words he was walking 2 miles/hour instead of 4 miles /hour. He was normally a faster walker than his wife. She became a faster walker after he noted the walking defect. After following the concepts in this book the author and his wife were able to walk 4 miles daily in 1 hour and 30 minut

The News Media at the end of the year 2011 are full of how the Republicans are going to win back the Presidency because of the "terrible" job President Obama is doing of running the country. I decided to write a book separating fact from fiction. Your author has become an expert at surveying the Internet to find out what is really going on in the world. I have discovered how to learn what is happening in a variety of technical subjects such as Sustainable Energy and Cosmology as well as the US Debt and the facts behind the 9-11 attack and demise of Bin Laden. I find the Internet is full of facts, but you must sort-out fact from fiction. I think this book provides an objective survey of the Internet as to why President Obama will be re-elected in 2012. I will try to summarize the Republican Contenders at the end of 2011 and some of their platforms in Chapter 8. President Obama's platforms are in Chapter 9.

I learned how to do it by creating two Movies and Disks suitable for publishing. I must confess I made many mistakes ending up with unacceptable DVDs before successfully saving my subject matter using the Win Movie Maker. This saved Movie was then used to create a DVD suitable for publishing. It took me several months of trial and error before arriving at the proper procedure to use to obtain the final publishable DVD. This book shows you the proper steps and procedures to use so you can create a DVD using your material that will be suitable for publishing by your selected DVD publisher. The DVD can be published by Create Space (or another internet DVD publisher, if there is one) using their DVD setup program:

R1,062 Discovery Miles 10 620 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

The extreme volatility experienced by the US markets in July, August, and September 2011 forced me to examine all potential strategies to be used for Weekly Options. After reviewing the potential options strategies, I have selected Debit Condors, Long Straddles, and Credit Condors The Indices used for these strategies include SPX (S&P 500), SPY (miniSPX), about 0.1 the SPX, and OEX (S&P 100), about 0.5 the SPX. This book describes the new software I have devised to trade these 3 strategies for these 3 Indices. The program: SelfAdapINDXWeeklyVLTY focuses on selecting the best strategy and the best Index for executing during the next week expiring on Friday. The software described in this book helps the trader decide which of the 3 strategies to use for the weekly options and provides computations to decide which of the 3 Indices are best for the selected strategy

Prostate Cancer (Paperback): Jon Schiller Phd Prostate Cancer (Paperback)
Jon Schiller Phd
R1,271 Discovery Miles 12 710 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Your author decided to write this book about Prostate Cancer when one of his best friends suffered from this disease. He took extensive chemotherapy which extended his life, but made living difficult. His body was saying make me live longer, but his mind was saying I should die, living is too painful to continue. His mind finally won-out and he died. This book used Internet to learn about the symptoms of Prostate Cancer and the latest therapies used to extend the life span of people suffering from this cancer. One promising technology is the use of Nanocells which are injected in the patient's blood stream. These nanocells seek out the cancer cells and destroy them, thus curing the patient. I learned studying Nanotechnology research for another book that people investigating the applications of Nanocells had injected such synthesized cells into mice and the cells had sought out the cancer cells and destroyed them, thus curing the mice. If Bioscience researchers can do the same thing for humans, then there is hope for eradicating Prostate Cancer.

Five Gay Love Conversions (Paperback): Jon Schiller Phd Five Gay Love Conversions (Paperback)
Jon Schiller Phd
R975 Discovery Miles 9 750 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Your author wrote this novel describing Five Gay Love Conversions to add to his other two Gay Tale novels, which have been popular as judged by observing the statistics on the Google, Kindle, and Amazon lists of books read. The first 6 Gay Tales novel was based on academic gay societies except for one tale about lesbian Iraq War widows. The second 6 Gay Tales novel was based on gay love during the Afghanistan War, a gay love group in a Moslem bar, gay love in space, gay love between two cryptologists while they solved a hacking threat from Iranian hackers, and the seeking out and gay love living together of a US General and Colonel who had used gay love making to release tensions during the Afghanistan War. This gay couple found each other in Pismo Beach, California, where they moved to live with each other as gay lovers. This new book is a series of five stories suggested by news articles and Internet messages, with emphasis on how gay lovers found each other after deciding to convert to gay love making, after a traumatic love experience with their heterosexual lovers.

Your author decided to write this book about NanoTechnology after being reminded of the fantastic developments of Professor Richard P Feynman who was a professor at Caltech while your author was a physics student earning his BS there between 1947 and 1951. I started studying the pioneering research of Dr. Feynman after being reminded of his famous lecture titled: There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom. This discourse was presented at an American Physical Society meeting at Caltech on December 29, 1959. Feynman considered the possibility of direct manipulation of individual atoms as a more powerful form of synthetic chemistry than the methods used at the time. This became nanotechnology
