The collection focuses on the advancements of characterization of minerals, metals, and materials and the applications of characterization results on the processing of these materials. Advanced characterization methods, techniques, and new instruments are emphasized. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Novel methods and techniques for characterizing materials across a spectrum of systems and processes. * Characterization of mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical, dielectric, magnetic, physical, and other properties of materials. * Characterization of structural, morphological, and topographical natures of materials at micro- and nano- scales. * Characterization of extraction and processing including process development and analysis. * Advances in instrument developments for microstructure analysis and performance evaluation of materials, such as computer tomography (CT), X-ray and neutron diffraction, electron microscopy (SEM, FIB, TEM), and spectroscopy (EDS, WDS, EBSD) techniques. * 2D and 3D modelling for materials characterization. The book explores scientific processes to characterize materials using modern technologies, and focuses on the interrelationships and interdependence among processing, structure, properties, and performance of materials.
Based on a multi-year study with several large companies,
"Resurgence" reveals how some of the most interesting and notable
brands in the world have managed to stage remarkably successful
comebacks following periods of decline. The core of this book is a
smart, simple four-part framework for reinvention, plus compelling
advice distilled for general business readers. Yet, it also
features fascinating, insider accounts of the change process, with
stories from a core group of leaders at companies such as Motorola,
Alberto Culver, Harley-Davidson, and others, as they considered the
question: How do we reinvent a firm that does not recognize the
need for radical change? Three top marketing experts bring a
compelling wealth of experience and knowledge to the forefront as
they were granted extensive access to the executives at these
companies and track how each of these organizations look
dramatically different as a result of its changed efforts.

Investigation of the disaster will pose questions regarding why Daiichi was constructed in an earthquake-prone zone and was still operating despite problems that had been plaguing the reactors since 1989 such as cracks in infrastructure and leaks in radioactivity. This book analyses and explores the impact of Japans 2011 nuclear crisis.
"In recent years adult educators have been working to develop an important body of literature on neo-liberalism, capitalism, and imperialism. Many of these analyses draw on various strands of Marxist theorizing. With the exception of Jane Thompson's work as an early socialist feminist, a Marxist-Feminist framework has yet to be articulated for adult education. This text combines original empirical studies with literature review from critical adult education and feminist theory to examine the sites, theories, and practices of adult education from a Marxist-Feminist perspective.

At the start of the 1990s Japan's post war economic success came to
an abrupt end, and the country slid into a decade long recession
from which it has, on many levels, still not recovered. This book
examines the institutional factors in the Japanese system of
government administration that have paralyzed the decision-making
process and prevented the system from accommodating the ever
changing demands on the domestic front and the global political
economy. It argues that the current model defies structural reform
and frustrates the implementation of economic and social policies
that can resolve the problems that have challenged the Japanese for
years.
This book contends that structural reforms, the essential third arrow in Abe's 'Abenomics', will not happen. As a result, Abenomics is merely a combination of reckless monetary policy and ambiguous fiscal policies which will fail to regenerate Japan's fragile economy and cut sovereign debt.

An examination of the elements explicit to the Japanese post war governing system that enable the national ministries to extend their administrative authority over the political economy. It argues that the insular model defies structural reform and prevents the implementation of economic and social policies that can resolve socio-economic problems.

Experts discuss the potential of early intervention to transform outcomes for people with mental disorders. Mental illness represents one of the largest disease burdens worldwide, yet treatments have been largely ineffective in improving the quality of life for millions of affected individuals-in part because approaches taken have focused on late-stage disorders in adulthood. This volume shifts the focus by placing the developmental stage of "youth" at the center of mental health. The contributors challenge current nosology, explore mechanisms that underlie the emergence of mental disorders, and propose a framework to guide early intervention. Offering recommendations for the future, the book holds that early intervention in youth has the potential to transform outcomes for people with mental disorders and to reconfigure the landscape of mental health. The contributors discuss epidemiology, classification, and diagnostic issues, including the benefits of clinical staging; the context for emerging mental disorders, including both biological and sociocultural processes; biological mechanisms underlying risk for psychopathology, including aspects of neural circuitry; and developing and implementing prevention and early intervention, including assessment and intervention modalities and knowledge translation in early treatment of schizophrenia.
