The wizardry of technology!.......1999-06-23

Hats off gentlemen! This book is an aggressive approach on technology as a system to support our work (work = activity) in learning. The introduction of current technology to facilitate business (Rex/PAN) is refreshing and exciting. It discusses paradigm shifts, management tools, and describes the challenge of traditional training and education industry entities to create a mentofactured workforce. Bravo!

Great overview of how to use technology in learning.......1999-03-31

Excellent description of the power of technology in managing knowledge and increasing the speed and quality of learning

A strategic coverage of electronic performance tools.......1998-10-09

It is difficult to find a book as comprehensive as this one, covering both strategic and tactical views of the topic. Michael Marquardt and Greg Kearsley have done an excellent job of showing the multiple options available in electronic performance support and how these options can contribute to organizational learning and sustained performance. They have included the latest technologies in video, audio, computer and network areas, and have demonstrated the potential each form of technology has for the support of organizational learning. For example, they include electronic publishing and data mining, both of which capabilities have great potential for organizational effectiveness.

The technologies have been explained in such a way that they are easily accessible to managers and practitioners. The book will provide the reader with information and applications which can easily be transferred into any organizational setting. It is an excellent addition to both general management and performance consulting libraries.

Book Description

The versatility of the emulsion copolymerization reaction and the ability to control the properties of the final latices have led to rapid expansion both in the quantity of polyvinylacetate and vinyl acetate-acrylic copolymer latices and in their applications. Vinyl Acetate Emulsion Polymerization and Copolymerization with Acrylic Monomers provides a collection and logical organization of the published data - much of it formerly found fragmented throughout various journals and little of it referenced in general emulsion polymerization books. To date, no one source has offered chemists and polymer, surface, or colloid specialists the "big picture" of polyvinylacetate-based latices. Integrating established knowledge with the latest research developments, this book provides the background for understanding the mechanism and kinetics of emulsion polymerization initiated in the aqueous phase and some of the practical problems of latex production. The author presents an overview of industrial practices, new applications, and all of the fundamental material - avoiding theoretical controversies. With in-depth discussion of the ingredients found in most industrial recipes, Vinyl Acetate Emulsion Polymerization and Copolymerization with Acrylic Monomers helps eliminate costly and time-consuming "trial and error" practices. It serves not only as an introduction for those new to the field, but also as a valuable reference for researchers and applied scientists in both industry and academia.

Book Description

Emulsion polymerisation produces high value polymers in a low cost, environmentally friendly process. The drive to develop environmentally benign production methods for polymers has resulted in widespread development and implementation of the emulsion polymerisation technique. In addition, when combined with novel polymerisation mechanisms the process can give rise to a range of polymer products with particularly useful properties.Emulsion polymerisation is a complex process, governed by the interplay of both chemical and physical properties including polymerisation kinetics and dispersion stability. Successful industrial application relies on understanding and controlling those properties. By carefully explaining the principles of the reaction, based on well-designed experimental investigation, Chemistry and Technology of Emulsion Polymerisation provides a practical and intuitive explanation of emulsion polymerisation. In the development of industrial processes, coupling that understanding with everyday practice can be a further difficult step, so the book emphasises a clear, comprehensive and straightforward discussion to illustrate how the principles relate to practical application.Written for research chemists, technologists and engineers in the polymer, fine and specialty chemicals industries, and in university or government laboratories, this book will be particularly valuable to those early on in their careers. The comprehensive and straightforward coverage will also ensure it is an important resource for advanced courses in emulsion polymerisation.

Book Description

This is a comprehensive overview of the information yielded by electroweak probes about the nuclear- and subnuclear-scale structure of matter. Lepton-induced processes from low energy through to the highest energies are considered. The first three lectures review electromagnetic processes in hadrons; others cover the properties of partons, the behaviour of the constituents of the hadron, muon and neutrino scattering etc. An introduction to electroweak theory including the status of precision tests and data analyses is given along with a report on the first results from HERA. The lecturers have endeavoured to achieve a balance between scientific and didactic aspects thus making the book accessible also to students of nuclear and particle physics.

Book Description

Corrie McAfee
50 Harbor Street
Cedar Cove, Washington

Dear Reader,

Considering that I'm married to Cedar Cove's private investigator, you might think I enjoy mysteries. But I don't -- especially when they involve us! Roy and I have been receiving anonymous postcards and messages asking if we "regret the past." We don't know what they mean . . .

On a more positive note, we're both delighted that our daughter, Linette, has moved to Cedar Cove to work at the new medical clinic. A while ago I attended the humane society's "Dog and Bachelor Auction," where I bought her a date with Cal Washburn, who works at Cliff Harding's horse farm. Unfortunately Linette is less enthusiastic about this date than I am.

Speaking of Cliff, the romance between him and Grace Sherman is back on. But that's only one of the many interesting stories here in Cedar Cove. So why don't you drop by for a coffee at my husband's office on Main Street or our House on Harbor and I'll tell you everything that's new!

Customer Reviews:

Series.......2007-09-22

This whole series of books by Debbie Macomber was most enjoyable. I have read them all and her characters are real and most interesting.

KEEPS HER READERS ON THE RUN FOR MORE.......2007-08-10

Debbie always tries to give the best of her thought for her readers. As a result we keep on searching for more of her books.

In this 5th book of the cedar cove town, Debbie shows the concern that each character has for each other. She continues by bringing the pass of Mr. and Mrs. McAfee into their present, which started to heat up the story more. If you don't believe me, then I recommend that you get the book and read it for yourself if you have not read it yet.

I enjoyed reading this book a lot and I have just started the six book of this series.

Debbie Macomber.......2007-05-13

I got hooked and her books and I cannot get enough. I just love her romance books. Never disappointeed

Gossipy Good Book Welcomes Readers Back To Heart-Warming Town of Cedar Cove.......2007-02-21

Debbie Macomber is a great story teller. She has created a fictional town and peopled it with characters the reader in me has come to regard as old and dear friends. Simply put, I love this soap-opera-like town and its residents. In this fifth installment, the residents of Cedar Cove learn more about love and redemption, overcoming tragedy, dealing with rejection, and moving forward with grit and determination. There are unexpected bonding sessions, life-threatening situations for favorite characters, and the angst of young love.

50 HARBOR STREET is a gossipy good book that gives us another peek into the lives of people we have grown to love in previous installments. The residents of 50 HARBOR STREET are Roy and Corrie McAfee. As a private investigator, Roy solves a case that could impact his life more than any other he has tackled. The mystery of who is sending him anonymous notes is solved and it reveals a stunning back story to this quiet and unassuming couple.

Roy and Corrie's daughter Linette has moved back to Cedar Cove but spurns her mother's matchmaking skills to go after a young doctor who shows no interest in her but lots in her best friend.

Ben Rhodes' son David comes to town oozing charm and good looks. Why is he making enemies so quickly?

Allison Cox has fallen for a "bad boy" who seems intent on self-destruction. Even the support of parents Zach and Rosie may not make lemonade out of this crate of lemons.

Ian and Cecilia as well as Maryellen and Jon each handle second pregnancies filled with difficult decisions while love is in the air for Rachel Pendergast, Cal Wilson, and that on-again off-again couple Grace and Cliff. You'll want to know what's new with Olivia and Jack, Bob and Peggy, Justine and Seth, and all the friends and neighbors who have become part of your fictional family.

As usual, an unsolved mystery at the end and some dangling threads set the stage for the next installment, 6 RAINIER DRIVE, at the home of Justine and Seth Gunderson.

Great Book.......2007-02-06

Must have if you like this series. Debbie has done it again. I can't wait for the next one to come out.
