The result of a conference on language and related cognitive
processes in animals, this book brings together scientists working
on language and communication, reviews research done on language in
apes and dolphins, and places this work in a larger perspective of
animal communication and cognition. The conference convened an
international group of distinguished scientists interested in
exploring the neurological, cognitive, social, and behavioral
aspects of communication in animals. A broad spectrum of
perspectives was represented, including naturalistic investigations
of animals in their natural habitat as well as strictly controlled
laboratory investigations. Similarly, a broad range of species was
described including rats, parrots, monkeys, apes, dolphins, and
humans. New methodologies and perspectives are continuously
emerging that allow consideration of issues that previously could
not be resolved. Emerging technology such as video equipment and
advanced database systems allow one to exhaustively record in an
accessible format the evidence on which scientific conclusions must
be based. Investigation of animal language and communication is a
small, but vigorously exciting area of scientific investigation as
the chapters in this volume clearly attest.

Learn how to manage and leverage risk Like all organizations in today’s volatile marketplace, nonprofits are under tremendous pressure to be more accountable for their operations, specifically to funders, donors, clients, and the public at large. Proper risk management can not only help nonprofits create a sound and transparent financial structure, but also exploit new development opportunities that may not otherwise be realized. Managing Risk in Nonprofit Organizations shows managers how to implement sound risk management procedures in every aspect of their organization. The authors divide their guide into three sections–The Nature and Purposes of Risk Management, Recognizing the Context for Risk Management, and Risk Financing for Nonprofits. A large array of potential risks is covered, including: - Human resource issues
- Fundraising
- Internet use
- Mergers
- Volunteer management
Senior level managers and executives at nonprofits, board members, and professional risk managers will find Managing Risk in Nonprofit Organizations to be an invaluable guide to this vital topic.

Brings together essays by tenure-track faculty, adjuncts, and
graduate employees from a variety of disciplines and geographical
regions in an analysis of the changing identity of academic labor.
The essays included suggest alternatives for responding to the
ongoing erosion of tenure and academic freedom and reshaping the
academic workplace.
Contributors discuss the impact of today's casualized academic
job market on faculty's self-perception, political action, and
responses to the changing nature of higher education. The essays
included in this collection address a number of topics, including:
today's academic labor situation from an educational history
perspective, the development of an academic worker identity via the
build-up to a strike, the graduate-employee union movement,
unionization as a social justice movement, faculty unionization and
workplace solidarity, the potential culture clash between
professional and blue-collar unions, the faculty's complicity in
the creation of a two-tiered job system, and the othering of
adjunct and non-tenure-track faculty.
By focusing on the state of the academic job system on their
campuses, the contributors to this volume suggest some alternatives
for responding to the ongoing erosion of tenure and academic
freedom in higher education and reshaping the academic
workplace.
