A collection of Zen Poetry from the Abbot of Ocean Eyes Zen Center
in Long Beach, California. This first collection of poetry was
written between 1995 and 1997, and follows the spiritual path of a
Buddhist Layperson searching for balance between the life of
dedicated Zen practice and the life of layperson living in this
modern world. The introduction contains an interview with Do
Chong's grand-teacher Zen Master Seung Sahn, the 78th Patriarch of
Korean Chogye Buddhism, in which the two discuss poetry and Zen
Practice. Some exiting insights about Zen Poetry and life are
shared with the reader in this conversation.
Meta-analysis is a formal synthesis of results and findings of
scientific studies, which can assist in gaining new insights,
explaining differences between results of similar studies, or
determine useful directions of research. In this book we focus on
the use of meta-analysis in environmental economics and related
fields of study. The first part of the book covers the overall
meta-approach methodology for social sciences and economics in
particular. This is followed by technical and non-technical
discussions of statistical and rough-set techniques for analysis.
At appropriate places this is supplemented with reviews of
applications in environmental economics and related fields. In the
second part of the book a number of case studies show different
aspects of the application of meta-analysis. The research areas
considered include, among others, tourism multipliers, air
pollution valuation, risk and value of life, pesticide price
policy, travel time savings, and transport externality and policy
issues. The benefits of the appropriate application of
meta-analysis in environmental economics are a better use of
existing information and knowledge, removal of some of the
subjectivity from analysis and forecasting, and greater clarity as
to where future efforts in environmental economic analysis can most
gainfully be deployed.

Covering all aspects of rotating machinery vibration such as:
bladed systems; bearings and seals; balancing; condition monitoring
and cracked rotors; impacts and rub; identification; theoretical
considerations; and active control. "Vibrations in Rotating
Machinery" should be of interest to: academics and industrialists
associated with research, design and development; and those
concerned with solving the practical problems that arise from the
design, manufacture and operation of machines, and other rotating
assemblies which embody primary rotating elements.
The aim of this book is to highlight the great potential of
decentralized (i.e. local or urban) energy policies in achieving
environmentally-benign developments for modern cities. Urban
sustainability is placed in the context of the debate on global
sustainable development. A wide array of policy initiatives is
discussed and evaluated, ranging from market-based energy policies
to technological innovation policies for the energy sector. A
theoretical framework for technology adoption processes is
developed and empirically tested. The main question addressed is:
which are the critical success factors for successful urban energy
policies? This question is also dealt with in a meta-analytic
context by assessing and comparing the performance of energy
policies in various European cities, with a particular view to
renewable energy.
"OUR IDENTITY IS INTENSITY," declares Liverpool FC
assistant-manager Pep Lijnders in this compelling account of the
2021/22 season, and from the very first chapter he takes us on a
footballing thrill-ride we will never forget. Liverpool's
blistering brand of football has revived a sleeping giant,
energised its vast army of fans, entertained crowds at home and all
over the world, and redefined coaching excellence. Now Pep tells
the inside story of a season which, even by LFC standards, has been
truly sensational. Week by week as the drama unfolds it's all here:
from pre-season to unforgettable finale; great goals and gruelling
schedules; passionate team-talks and personal reflections; unsung
heroes and Kop idols; the pride and the passion, the joy and the
heartache... and the fun. In his own engaging and inspiring style,
Pep takes readers behind-the-scenes at Anfield, the AXA Training
Centre and the team hotel; on the pitch, in the dugout and back in
the dressing-room away from the media glare. In forming a
'one-club' mentality, Jurgen Klopp, Lijnders and co have also
created countless modern memories for the LFC family, and this
unique book chronicles their legacy. It's an unprecedented account
of a season at an elite football club from one of the game's most
thoughtful students.
ICPA provides a forum for researchers and academics who share a
common interest in ecological psychology to come together, present
new research, and foster ideas towards the advancement of the
field. This volume is the fourteenth in the Studies in Perception
and Action book series, and highlights research presented at the
19th International Conference of Perception and Action (ICPA) in
the summer of 2017. Since 1991, this edited book series has
appeared in conjunction with the biennial ICPA meeting. The short
papers and empirical articles presented in this book represent the
contributions of researchers and laboratories from across the
globe. The reader will find new, cutting-edge research on a wide
variety of topics in perception and action. This volume will
especially appeal to those that are interested in James J. Gibson's
ecological approach to psychology, as well as, more broadly,
students and researchers of visual and haptic perception,
perceptual development, human movement dynamics, human factors, and
social processes.
First published in 1965. This book is of compelling interest to all
concerned with the good management of industry. This report
examines the attitudes of managers towards the problems that
confront them. The attitude of managers can be divided in to two
broad categories, described in the report as 'thrusting' and
'sleeping'. The research conducted in this report shows that the
managements of 'thrusting' firms are characterized, first, by a
determination to expand, secondly by a precise knowledge of the
environment in which they operate and, thirdly, by the systematic
use of techniques which enable them to make rational decisions. In
order to find possible ways in which more firms might achieve a
similar 'self-awareness' PEP staff had discussions with nearly 100
businessmen, senior civil servants, scientists and educationalists.
As a result of these investigations PEP has formulated some
suggestions as to how the gap between thrusters and sleepers might
be narrowed to the benefit of the whole economy.

It has been frequently stated that energy storage is an essential
requirement if significant generation by renewables is to be
achieved, but are the present systems likely to be adequate? This
text reviews the present status and future potential of the
different systems of energy storage, their role in power generation
by renewables specifically, and the electricty market generally.
This book is a collection of Leea (TM)s most important works,
placed in a historical setting and contextualized through the
commentaries of other leading researchers in the field. The
contributors were selected on the basis of their standing in the
field. Some have been directly involved in collaborations with Lee,
while others have participated in public discussions on particular
controversies. All contributors know David Lee well as a researcher
and scholar, and some know him on a more personal levela "as a
student, supervisor, mentor, or friend. It is this mixture of
involvements with David Lee and his writings that yields a unique
exchange of ideas on the origins of movement. Closing the Gap: The
Scientific Writings of David N. Lee is an invaluable resource for
academics and postgraduate students studying perceptuo-motor
control.

A major strategy to reduce transport congestion and other social
costs of transport is to ensure that travellers make the best
decisions, based on real time information. A wide range of
technological systems have been developed to provide this
information, but little is known about how travellers actually
respond to it. This book offers an overview of various transport
telematics options and provides an appropriate methodological
framework, followed by a presentation of results from actual
applications of these telematics systems from a range of European
countries in various transport sectors. The empirical results are
supplemented by analytical models and geographic information
systems representations with a view on generalizing these findings
and identifying the key parameters which determine user response.

Men's adventure magazines were a form of pulp publishing which
flourished in 1950s and 1960s America, pandering to the cruelty and
lust of young men with luridly illustrated stories of war, sleaze
and savagery. They arose partly in response to the inauguration of
the Comics Code in 1954, as a way of circumventing censorship by
presenting material in a new, "adults-only" format. The prime years
of the men's adventure magazine unleashed a visual and verbal
deluge of exposed and tormented flesh, bloody mayhem and sexual
delinquency, representing a unique cultural phenomenon in US
publishing and art. SOFT NUDES FOR THE DEVIL'S BUTCHER is a new
anthology which collects some prime examples of text and artwork
from a range of men's adventure magazines published during the
prime years of the genre. The book is divided into two main
sections: FEATURES includes a selection of sensationalistic,
semi-factual confessions and case histories on such subjects as
rape in Soviet prisons, Hitler's secret sex life, prostitution, the
persecution of witches, and other aberrations; and FICTION collects
vivid examples of garishly illustrated short pulp fiction, with
categories including war, white slavery, Nazi horror, jungle
savagery, Red menace, Devil worship, torture, sadism and erotic
carnage. The book also features numerous examples of interior art
from classic men's magazines, and includes 35 features and stories,
with more than 50 full-size illustrations, and 16 pages of full
color. Pulp Mayhem is a new illustrated book series of vintage pulp
fiction, art and pop culture.
