Designing for Dementia is written by an interdisciplinary team of
professionals and academics whose aim is to present lessons learnt
from the Dementia Demonstration House at the Building Research
Establishment’s Innovation Park. Known as Chris and Sally’s
House, the project represents a unique opportunity to show in
practice what can be done to assist people living with dementia to
continue to live at home and as part of the community with as much
independence as possible. This book presents evidence based
practical design guidance backed up by over 15 combined years of
research by experienced professional designers. Beginning with an
introduction which provides the background to the global dementia
epidemic to allow readers to gain a better understanding of the
issues they must consider, the book then discusses how good design
principles, planning and construction standards can be used to
effectively respond to the dementia crisis. The detailed findings
from research using Chris and Sally’s house are presented and
discussed, along with practical examples and success stories
ranging from simple design features to the more complex use of
sensors and automated ventilation. The hope is that readers can
apply the lessons learnt from Chris and Sally’s House to
successfully integrate solutions into the design of new or
refurbished housing for the elderly, but also that the tools and
insights shared will inform the wider context of good housing
design, as well as the spectrum of constraints and design standards
which often apply. This book is important reading for architects,
designers, engineers and project managers, but also anyone with an
interest in learning about practical solutions to aid those with
dementia to live well at home.

This text addresses issues concerning the organization as a whole
rather than simply focusing on the perspective of the individual
manager. It reflects the modern move towards performance management
as an organizational business strategy A system model of how the
different parts of human resources (HR) fit together is included,
with the acknowledgemnt that different contexts require different
approaches. The role of the individual manager is also looked at
within these contexts The text looks at the stakeholder
persepective as it affects the management of people, and links
human resource management policy and practice to financial results.
Comparisons between different countries introduces material that
recognizes that the law in this area now originates in Europe, and
it is acknowledged that many managers now work for multinational
companies New material on the management of stress and insecurity,
and on decision making and how to involve people has been included,
and information on what authority and leadership means in relation
to the workforce has been added.

Think more deeply and work more independently at A level History
through a carefully thought-out enquiry approach from SHP.
Enquiring History: It makes you think! The OFSTED report on school
history suggests that the current generation of A Level students
have been poorly served by exam-based textbooks which spoon-feed
students while failing to enthuse them or develop deeper
understandings of studying History The Schools History Project has
risen to this challenge with a new series for the next generation.
Enquiring History is SHP's fresh approach to Advanced Level History
that aims: - To motivate and engage readers - To help readers think
and gain independence as learners - To encourage enquiry, and
deeper understanding of periods and the people of the past - To
engage with current scholarship - To prepare A Level students for
university Key features of each Student book - Clear compelling
narrative - books are designed to be read cover to cover -
Structured enquiries - that explore the core content and issues of
each period - 'Insight' panels between enquiries provide context,
overview, and extension - Full colour illustrations throughout The
Crusades: Conflict and controversy 1095-1291 There has never been a
more important time to study the Crusades. Religious conflict is a
fact of life in the twenty-first century no less than it was in the
medieval world. And yet the world of the Crusades is so different
from ours that it takes a massive leap of imagination to make sense
of these events. This book takes on that challenge: opening a
window onto the 12th and 13th century worlds to understand what on
earth was going on. It examines the Crusades themselves; the
controversies surrounding them; and the past and current
re-interpretations of the period. Web-based support includes -

This book features 13 papers presented at the Fifth International
Symposium on Recurrence Plots, held August 2013 in Chicago, IL. It
examines recent applications and developments in recurrence plots
and recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) with special emphasis
on biological and cognitive systems and the analysis of coupled
systems using cross-recurrence methods. Readers will discover new
applications and insights into a range of systems provided by
recurrence plot analysis and new theoretical and mathematical
developments in recurrence plots. Recurrence plot based analysis is
a powerful tool that operates on real-world complex systems that
are nonlinear, non-stationary, noisy, of any statistical
distribution, free of any particular model type and not
particularly long. Quantitative analyses promote the detection of
system state changes, synchronized dynamical regimes or
classification of system states. The book will be of interest to an
interdisciplinary audience of recurrence plot users and researchers
interested in time series analysis of complex systems in general.

behaviour and pay are inseparable from the skills of managing
people. The book contains an important analysis of the labour
market for this industry and now, in its second edition includes,
among others, chapters on attitude measurement, customer-employee
relations, questionnaire design and organizational change. Human
Resource Management in the Hospitality and Tourism Industry is
written in a clear, user-friendly style and offers a challenging
view of the subject and an opportunity to learn an important aspect
of management in an applied context. It is appropriate for degree
level students and practitioners in the industry.

Modelled on the concept of Industry 4.0, the idea of Construction
4.0 is based on a confluence of trends and technologies that
promise to reshape the way built environment assets are designed,
constructed, and operated. With the pervasive use of Building
Information Modelling (BIM), lean principles, digital technologies,
and offsite construction, the industry is at the cusp of this
transformation. The critical challenge is the fragmented state of
teaching, research, and professional practice in the built
environment sector. This handbook aims to overcome this
fragmentation by describing Construction 4.0 in the context of its
current state, emerging trends and technologies, and the people and
process issues that surround the coming transformation.
Construction 4.0 is a framework that is a confluence and
convergence of the following broad themes discussed in this book:
Industrial production (prefabrication, 3D printing and assembly,
offsite manufacture) Cyber-physical systems (actuators, sensors,
IoT, robots, cobots, drones) Digital and computing technologies
(BIM, video and laser scanning, AI and cloud computing, big data
and data analytics, reality capture, Blockchain, simulation,
augmented reality, data standards and interoperability, and
vertical and horizontal integration) The aim of this handbook is to
describe the Construction 4.0 framework and consequently highlight
the resultant processes and practices that allow us to plan,
design, deliver, and operate built environment assets more
effectively and efficiently by focusing on the physical-to-digital
transformation and then digital-to-physical transformation. This
book is essential reading for all built environment and AEC
stakeholders who need to get to grips with the technological
transformations currently shaping their industry, research, and
teaching.
