The book discusses the most essential topics in understanding the
development and changes of higher
educational systems in Asia after the outbreak of the
pandemic, and explores the transformative,
international and innovative moves from an Asian perspective. The
topics covered in the book are timely in that higher education in
Asia was severely limited during the tumultuous time of the
pandemic, including three themes- 1. How the pandemic drives
system reform and quality management; 2. How can
universities maintain transnational partnerships and
attract global talent; 3. How would faculty members innovate
teaching pedagogy and reassess student learning experiences.
This timely and well-researched book provides valuable insights
into the challenges and opportunities for national, regional, and
international higher education created by the recent pandemic as
well as technological and geopolitical changes. The lucid analysis
of key issues and trends will be useful to academics,
policymakers, and researchers within Asia and beyond. Professor
Jane Knight, Ontario Institute for studies in Education, University
of Toronto This book sets out important thinking for the
post-pandemic era in Asian higher education. Based on valuable
experience across a diverse region, this book highlights the
opportunity to reimagine the future trajectory for higher
education. As more of the Asia-Pacific moves toward mass and even
universal systems of higher education, it exerts greater influence
on higher education around the world. This book offers practical
analysis that is culturally grounded in the rich civilizations of
Asia about ubiquitous issues in higher education,
including social equity, human agency, program quality, innovative
pedagogy, academic governance, private sector initiative, knowledge
building, and a new form of internationalization. It offers a
sensible launchpad for a policy agenda. Professor Gerard
Postiglione, Emeritus Professor, The University of Hong Kong
In this book lies a key for decoding modern medical terminology, a
living language that, despite some quirks, is best approached as an
ordered system. Rather than presenting a mere list of word elements
to be absorbed through rote memorization, The Hippocrates Code
offers a thorough, linguistically-centered explanation of the rules
of the terminological game, both for the language of medicine and
for scientific vocabulary in general. Its careful exposition of
Latin and Greek linguistic principles-along with a healthy dose of
innovative exercises-empowers students to successfully employ the
word elements that are the building blocks of modern medical
terminology. Along the way, fascinating discussions of the practice
of medicine in the ancient world provide an integral aid to the
understanding of medical vocabulary. Code-breakers drawn to
language, history, and medicine will be as stimulated as they are
enlightened. The Hippocrates Code features: Twenty-eight chapters
covering the principles behind the formation of medical vocabulary
derived from Latin and Greek, complete with a rich harvest of the
most useful prefixes, suffixes, and bases Detailed anatomical
diagrams paired with an etymological tour of the human body
Selected readings from ancient medical writers, with commentaries
that compare and contrast medical practices in antiquity with those
of the present day An abundant array of diverse and often ingenious
exercises that require critical thinking about the application of
word elements. For additional vocabulary practice, exercises,
pronunciation aids, and much more The Hippocrates Code companion

Over the past 25 years, more than 100 companies that were failing,
not making enough money or simply struggling to achieve their true
potential, turned to David Lord to learn how to make their
businesses work better, make more money and generate additional
cash. David showed them how to transform their businesses' systems
of work into visual ones, resulting in improved employee
involvement, quality, productivity and profitability. Now, David's
book shows exactly what he does to change struggling businesses
into thriving ones, by employing the Visual System of Work. Using a
90-day implementation guide, the author gives practical,
step-by-step instructions about how to make the work processes of a
business visible, beginning with the collection of concrete data
about how a business actually operates in the present time (rather
than relying on peoples' perceptions) and ending with ways to
review, maintain and continuously improve the business' (now newly
transformed and invigorated) visual system of work. In between, the
author walks you through each step of clear-cut exercises and
assessments designed to revolutionize, revitalize and transform a
business. Directives include how to solidify core values, identify
key Lead and Lag measures, set up a "war room" and communicate
information throughout the organization. David provides eight
practical tools for helping a business get better including a
Strategic Planning Sheet, a System of Work Diagram, a Scoreboard
Sheet and (2) Time Management Sheets. The "7-Step Process of
Improving Throughput Performance" helps businesses define and solve
problems by identifying constraints ("slowdowns") within the flow
of work. Once constraints are recognized, the reasons for them
("interferences") can be reduced or eliminated. A book about visual
systems should be visually attractive, and this one is, using
plenty of photos and illustrations as well as an engaging variety
and size of fonts. Pertinent quotes and interesting factoids are
sprinkled among the straightforward information in just the right
mix to keep the book flowing, easy to understand and a fast (under
two hours) read. Inspiring and practical, this book is a valuable
resource for any business interested in working better, making more
money and generating additional cash.
This inaugural volume of The Franz Boas Papers Documentary Edition
series presents current scholarship from the various academic
disciplines that were shaped and continue to be influenced by Franz
Boas (1858-1942). Few of Boas's intellectual progeny span the range
of his disciplinary and public engagements. In his later career,
Boas moved beyond Native American studies to become a public
intellectual and advocate for social justice, particularly with
reference to racism against African Americans and Jews and
discrimination against women in science. He was a passionate
defender of academic freedom, rigorous scholarship, and
anthropology as a humane calling. The Franz Boas Papers, Volume 1
examines Boas's stature as a public intellectual in three crucial
dimensions: theory, ethnography, and activism. The volume's
contributors move across many of the disciplines within which Boas
himself worked, bringing to bear their expertise in Native studies,
anthropology, history, linguistics, folklore, ethnomusicology,
museum studies, comparative literature, English, film studies,
philosophy, and journalism. This volume demonstrates a contemporary
urgency to reassessing Boas both within the field of anthropology
and beyond.

Thomas Gordon's life in the city was going just fine. He had a
decent job, a nice condo, and was generally content with life. One
day, however, his boss was in a particularly foul mood, and a chain
of inexplicable mishaps resulted in Thomas getting fired. Fed up
with the world, he begins to search for an escape to a better life.
While sitting at the Realtor's office, he stumbles upon a flyer on
a bulletin board that asks a simple question: "Fed Up?" After
calling the number on the pull tab, he meets a group of scientists
with an interesting proposition: human cryogenic preservation...
Thomas and his companions Vera and Doug emerge into the strange
future of the twenty-third century: a world full of amazing
technological advances and equally amazing people. Upon digging a
little further below the surface, though, they quickly discover
that this future isn't exactly the "better world" that everyone
thought it would be...
