This special issue of Military Psychology reports behavioral,
pharmacological, and toxicological science research on military
performance as it is affected by chemical warfare agents (CWAs) and
their pharmacological countermeasures. The papers in this issue are
a diverse assembly; some very pharmacological in orientation,
others driven by behavioral neuroscience. The unifying theme is the
psychological consequences or organic syndromes that may be
confused with consequences resulting from exposure to CWAs or use
of their medical countermeasures.

"More than an account of Kuna ecology, this book argues for a positive environmental policy. The authors urge the Kuna to consider the potential ecological hazards of pursuing certain business interests, and remind their readers of the reliable, though delicate, relationship that exists between human society and the natural world"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.

The KJV Apocrypha in a single volume. The Apocrypha ('hidden
things') are contemporaneous with the Hebrew Bible, but were not
officially accepted as part of the Bible. They did, however, form
part of the Greek Scriptures and came into English Bibles by that
route. The writings of the Apocrypha run the whole gamut of
literary genres: histories, romances, devotional works, proverbs
and sermons. Many complement parts of the Hebrew Bible and readers
will recognise some familiar Biblical characters in the narratives,
such as Daniel and Esther.
Service design is the activity of utilizing resources and people to
build and sustain services that not only meet customers' needs, but
also add that little bit of magic or true competitive advantage. In
an overcrowded marketplace there is often little opportunity to
break away from the pack and influence customer perceptions;
Customer-Driven Transformation demonstrates how to use design
thinking as a driver for organizational change to translate your
vision into compelling services that will delight your customers.
How did companies like Netflix, Airbnb and Uber revolutionize
industries and win loyal followers? They started here. By thinking
about what customers need foremost, you can reinvent your value
proposition and deliver services that work. Customer-Driven
Transformation shows how to instill an outside-in approach to
strategy, moving away from management that's technology, marketing
or resource optimization-led, towards being customer-inspired and
experimental with innovation. It is a practical guide for any
business to lead a transformational programme and use design
thinking to change how services are created, ensuring they are
expertly designed, elegant in use and advance in
customer-mindedness. With ground-breaking case studies from the
likes of E.On Energy, Hyundai Motor Company and Bupa, this
cutting-edge book will empower companies to take control of
customer experience and deliver long-lasting and impactful change.
Focusing on one of the hottest management topics, it is an
inspiring read for any business leader to understand how to
reinvent their value proposition, gain market share and win
customers.
Three-part documentary in which US scholar James Shapiro looks at
William Shakespeare's work during the reign of King James I,
focusing on the years between 1603-1613. The programme analyses
Shakespeare's plays, including 'King Lear', 'Macbeth' and 'The
Tempest', discussing how they reflect the cultural and politcal
events taking place in Britain during that time. The episodes are:
'Incertainties', 'Equivocation' and 'Legacy'.
In 1590 three hundred Scottish 'witches' were tried for plotting
the murder of their King, James VI of Scotland (soon to be James I
of England). James is known to have suffered from a morbid fear of
violent death, and the trial heightened his anxiety over this
apparently treasonous 'un-Christian' sect, and stimulated him to
study the whole subject of witchcraft. 'Daemonologie' is the result
of this royal research, detailing his opinions on the topic in the
form of a Socratic dialogue between the sceptic Philomathes and
witch-averse Epistemon, who reveals many aspects of witch-craft.
The book consists of three sections, on magic, on sorcery and
witchcraft, and on spirits and ghosts, and ends with a lurid
account of the North Berwick witch trials, based on the evidence of
Dr John Fian, the alleged head of the coven, whose 'confession' was
obtained with the aid of thumbscrews, the Boot, and by the ripping
out of his fingernails.
On the 75th anniversary of its original publication, this new,
second edition of the 1944 classic serves as a crucial compilation
of ""house rules,"" or a professional code. It addresses three
areas: what the beginner needs to learn at once; ""laws"" relating
chiefly to engineering executives; and purely personal
considerations for engineers. Packed with contemporary examples,
this new volume is a must for those entering the engineering field
or those interested in improving their professional effectiveness.
Key additions and changes have been included for today’s
engineers, and this edition is written in a style more familiar to
today’s readers.
