Is your organization strategically prepared for the digital and
distributed workplace? Technology, data analytics and artificial
intelligence already impact how people work and engage with
organizations. A dispersed workforce, greater transparency, social
change, generational shift and value chain disruptions are driving
new behaviors and expectations from the workplace. Together, these
trends are shaping a new era of distributed and digitally enabled
network of workers where the work comes to workers instead of the
workers going to work. In Humans at Work, employee and workplace
experience experts Anna Tavis and Stela Lupushor advocate for the
adoption of human-centric practices as a critical and necessary
part of adapting work and workplaces to the future of work.
Outlining the four factors (digitization of work, distributed
workplaces, organizational redesign and changing workforce) driving
the dramatic changes in the workplace, each chapter provides
examples of how innovative companies are building workplace
infrastructure and reshaping norms, serving new markets and
adopting new technologies. Filled with examples from both start-ups
and established companies, Humans at Work is the workplace leader's
guide to building a workplace that creates market value by making
work more human.
Advanced Separations by Specialized Sorbents opens a new window
into sorbent materials, presenting fundamental principles for their
syntheses and adsorption properties. The book presents advanced
techniques used to create specialized sorbents with a wide range of
functions that can be used to enhance the separation and/or
purification of useful bioactive compounds, heavy metals, dyes, and
other substances. It discusses the most recent developments in the
field of separation processes, covering specialized sorbents such
as monolith cryogels, composite hydrogels, metal-impregnated ion
exchangers, and molecularly imprinted polymers. The book provides a
comprehensive discussion of the selectivity in separation processes
by composite materials based on synthetic polymers/biopolymers and
inorganic particles. It is a comprehensive resource for academic
and research scientists as well as students interested in the
preparation, characterization, and application of specialized
sorbents.
This volume addresses a number of issues in current morphological
theory from the point of view of diminutive formation, such as the
role of phonology in diminutives and hypocoristics and consequently
its place in the overall architecture of grammar, i.e.
phonology-first versus syntax/morphology-first theoretical
analyses, diminutives in the L1 acquisition of typologically
diverse languages, and the borrowing of non-diminutive morphology
for the expression of diminutive meanings, among others. Among the
peculiarities of diminutive morphology discussed are the relation
between diminutives and mass nouns, the avoidance of diminutives in
plural contexts in some languages, and the relatively frequent
semantic bleaching and reanalysis of diminutive forms
cross-linguistically. Special attention is paid to the debate on
the head versus modifier status of diminutive affixes
(corresponding to high versus low diminutives in alternative
analyses), with data from spoken and sign languages. Overall, the
volume addresses a number of topics that will be of interest to
scholars of almost all linguistic subfields and per

This volume analyzes morphological and morphonological phenomena
from a number of distinct Slavic languages. It does so in an
innovative manner, yet also positions the analysis in the context
of current morphological debates. It is thus a valuable
contribution both to comparative Slavic morphology and general
morphological theory. Moreover, the book is the first attempt at a
theory of conversion and subtraction relevant to languages with
rich inflectional morphology. It contributes to our structural
understanding of the nature of word. As the first illustration of
subtraction with examples from southern Slavic languages, it is an
excellent source of specialist data. The book's theoretical
framework is easily accessible and applicable to other languages,
which makes it attractive to researchers on Slavic languages and
general linguists alike. The volume will also appeal to general
morphologists, typologists, and advanced students in linguistics.
