Coaches play a major role in helping people understand their values
and the values of their surroundings and helping them make choices
and adapt. Sometimes the choice may be to find a situation more in
sync with your values. Or it may mean working hard on yourself or
in concert with your partner, team, or organization. Whatever we
need to do to attain it, a positive fit makes for a happier person,
and a happier person will be more successful. This accessible and
practical book will help coaches, educators, leaders, and managers
understand the philosophy, methodology, and tools that can be used
to make a person happier, healthier, and more productive at work
and in life in general. This book compiles short vignettes from
over a dozen global academics and celebrated executive coaches,
sharing information about aligning values in different settings.
Based on years of research and written for readers from all walks
of life, you will learn that when you understand your core values,
place them on a triaxial template, and align them with your
definition of success, everything changes. It will help you come
out of your comfort zone in order to embrace the future and enhance
the quality of your life. For this, you need a concept, a
methodology, and effective tools, all of which are offered in this
book. Rich with practical step-by-step methodologies and tools to
facilitate values-led leadership, coaching, and mentoring, this
book is essential for any change agent, be it a coach, a leader, an
educator, or any person who is interested in learning how to become
more effective, improve their practice, and engage in self or
professional coaching. At the same time, it will enhance leadership
qualities.

Algorithms (WEA 2004) was held in Angra dos Reis (Brazil), May
25-28, 2004.
TheWEAworkshopsaresponsoredbytheEuropeanAssociationforTheo- tical

The Third Glasgow Workshop on Functional Programming was held in
Ullapool, Scotland, 13-15th August 1990. Members of the functional
programming groups at Glasgow and Stirling University attended the
workshop together with a small number of invited participants from
other universities and industry. The workshop was organised by Kei
Davis, Jak Deschner, Kevin Hammond, Carsten Kehler Holst, John
Hughes, Graham Hutton, and John Launchbury, all from Glasgow
University. We are very grateful for the support of our industrial
sponsors: British Telecom, Hewlett Packard, ICL and Software AG.
Their financial help made the workshop possible. Thanks to Samson
Abramsky, Tony Field, and Paul Kelly, all from Imperial College,
for their help in refereeing many of the papers. Glasgow University

The second edition of the hugely popular The Clinical Anaesthesia
Viva Book builds on the success of the first by providing a
thorough review of short and long case questions typically given to
Final FRCA viva candidates. An introductory chapter gives
invaluable practical advice on preparation for the viva. This is
followed by almost 100 short cases and 25 long cases, all based on
viva questions posed at recent examinations. Answers have been
constructed from a combination of popular textbooks, recent
publications and the extensive practical experience of the authors.
Short further reading lists are provided for more in-depth
preparation. Written by a team of expert consultants and senior
trainees with (successful ) experience of the Final FRCA, this
second edition of The Clinical Anaesthesia Viva Book, is a
must-have for anyone preparing for the Final FRCA viva.

The USDA provides technical and financial assistance to attract
interest and encourage participation in conservation programs.
These programs protect soil, water, wildlife and other natural
resources on privately owned agricultural lands to limit
environmental impacts of production activities both on and off the
farm. This book provides an overview of conservation programs with
a focus on technical assistance for agricultural conservation; the
conservation reserve program; conservation provisions of the 2008
Farm Bill; the Land and Water Conservation Fund; the
Debt-for-Nature Initiatives and the Tropical Forest Conservation
Act and the International Species Conservation Fund.
The structure of much of solid-state theory comes directly from
group theory, but until now there has been no elementary
introduction to the band theory of solids which adopts this
approach. This book provides such an introduction, employing only
the simplest and most basic of group theoretical ideas, and
emphasizing the significance of symmetry in determining many of the
essential concepts used in the subject. Given the extensive
training of chemists in applying group theory, there is no quicker
entry into the subject than by means of the approach used in this
book. Many topics were chosen with the needs of chemists in mind,
and many of the examples have a chemical flavour. Numerous problems
are included which enable the reader to apply the major ideas and
to complete some parts of the treatment. Chemists will find this a
valuable introduction to band theory, and the book will also appeal
to all physical scientists who would like to go a little beyond the
elementary treatments so far available.
Orogenesis, the process of mountain building, occurs when two
tectonic plates collide - either forcing material upwards to form
mountain belts such as the Alps or Himalayas or causing one plate
to be subducted below the other, resulting in volcanic mountain
chains such as the Andes. Integrating the approaches of structural
geology and metamorphism, this book provides an up-to-date overview
of orogenic research and an introduction to the physico-chemical
properties of mountain belts. Global examples are explored, the
interactioning roles of temperature and deformation in the orogenic
process are reviewed, and important new concepts such as channel
flow are explained. This book provides a valuable introduction to
this fast-moving field for advanced undergraduate and graduate
students of structural geology, plate tectonics and geodynamics,
and will also provide a vital overview of research for academics
and researchers working in related fields including petrology
geochemistry and sedimentology.
'Cross Cultural Competence' serves as a comprehensive, practical,
and workshop-based program that allows facilitators and
organizational change agents to help organizations and people
develop cross cultural skills and global competence. The book is
grounded in the most rigorous and relevant theories, research, and
learning methods and makes them easily accessible and fun to apply.
Rich with exercises, case studies, survey instruments, and tools,
it is based on the authors' extensive experience in delivering
cross cultural training, coaching, and consulting in multiple
languages to numerous organizations across the globe. The book may
also be used by individuals who want to better understand the
complexity of working and living in a cross cultural world or who
want to improve their capabilities in cross cultural management.
The book describes why individuals, organizations, and institutions
need to develop global competence, proposes an original and
holistic "Cross Cultural Competence Model," describes the business
case for global competence, and provides all the concepts,
knowledge, skills, and training tools needed to develop global
competence in people and organizations.
