Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 390 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Alexis was 8 years old when she lost her parents in a car crash. The brain injury she suffered erased memories but unlocked something within her. After earning multiple PhDs, she's invited to join a prestigious organization to work on a project once thought impossible. Upon her arrival, Alexis meets Bruce-a life-like AI system-and forms a unique connection with him. She makes progress in his development, but things take an unexpected turn for the worse when she's abducted from the compound. The time Alexis spends with her captor is astonishing, yet terrifying. It reveals truths about Bruce and the organization she's involved with, plunging her down a rabbit hole that leaves her fighting for her life while trying to protect those dearest to her. Full of suspense, heartache, desperation, and love, Binary draws you in as its narrative unfolds in multiple directions to put you in the passenger seat of the unknown.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The purpose of this book is to translate the science and practice of Industrial-Organizational (I-O) psychology, or work psychology, as it relates to sustainable development efforts to provide evidence-based insights for those who are working toward the greater good. To maximize the impact of I-O psychology on the greater good, this book is designed to be accessible and is written for readers who do not have a background in I-O psychology or related fields. The volume specifically targets readers who are engaged or want to be engaged in prosocial work across the public and private sectors and who are interested in leveraging the science and practice of I-O psychology to effect prosocial change. The book highlights the areas where I-O psychology has the most unique, practical, and/or useful takeaways to those who are working to move the needle on one or more of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While the SDGs provide the overarching structure of the book, the target audience extends beyond those who explicitly incorporate the SDGs in their framing such as those with prosocial efforts who use a different framing (e.g., ESG) or do not use a particular typology. For example, a private sector leader or organization working to improve gender equity (Gender Equality, SDG 5) or historically marginalized groups (Reduce Inequalities, SDG 10) in their communities or workplace would benefit from this book, regardless of how informed they are about the SDGs. Ultimately, this book extends the reach of I-O psychology to enhance societal well-being.

Quarter-Leather. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition. Boston: Williams, 1843. First edition. 8vo. Quarter-leather, 523. Calf over marble boards, leather spine labels. Bookplate of Dr. Joshua Green. Contains several articles on the Treaty of Washington, also known as the Webster-Ashburton Treaty. The Webster-Ashburton Treaty, signed August 9, 1842, settled the dispute over the location of the Maine-New Brunswick border between the United States and Great Britain and the shared use of the Great Lakes. It also reaffirmed the location of the border (at the 49th parallel) in the westward frontier up to the Rocky Mountains, originally defined in the Treaty of 1818. It also called for a final end to the slave trade on the high seas, to be enforced by both signatories. The Treaty was signed by United States Secretary of State Daniel Webster and United Kingdom Privy Counsellor Alexander Baring, Lord Ashburton. A plaque commemorating the treaty was placed at the site of the old State Department building in Washington, D.C. where the signing occurred. The Treaty is responsible for two geographic oddities. First, since Fort Montgomery, a U.S. fort in northeastern New York, had been constructed on Canadian soil, the border between Maine and the St. Lawrence was adjusted to 3/4 of a mile north of the 45th parallel, this placing the abandoned fort on U.S. soil. Second, the incorrect assumption in the Treaty of Paris that the source of the Mississippi River lay north of the Lake of the Woods would result in the enclave of the Northwest Angle being part of the U.S.This treaty marked the end of unofficial fighting (known informally as the Aroostook or Lumberjack's War) along the Maine-New Brunswick border and resolved issues that had led to the Indian Stream conflict as well as the Caroline Affair. The border was fixed with the disputed territory divided between the two nations. Also, as a result of this treaty, portions of the western U.S.-Canada border were adjusted so as to be consistent. It gave the U.S. negligibly more land to the north; iron ore was later discovered on this land. The Creole case was passed over by both nations. The treaty was an unforeseen bonus for the United States. The British, in adjusting the US-Canadian boundary farther west, lost a vital area to the US that contained the priceless Mesabi iron ore of Minnesota.
