Specifically addressing how interpersonal communication as process is potentially impeded because of how we are socialized to think about racial differences, this exciting and much-anticipated second edition of Interracial Communication: Theory Into Practice guides readers in applying the valuable contributions of recent communication theory to improving everyday communication among the races. Authors Mark P. Orbe and Tina M. Harris offer a comprehensive, practical foundation for dialogue on interracial communication, as well as a resource that stimulates thinking and encourages readers to bec

This book is loaded with examples in which computer scientists and engineers have used evolutionary computation - programs that mimic natural evolution - to solve real problems. They aren t abstract, mathematically intensive papers, but accounts of solving important problems, including tips from the authors on how to avoid common pitfalls, maximize the effectiveness and efficiency of the search process, and many other practical suggestions. Some of the authors have already won Humies - Human Competitive Results Awards - for the work described in this book. I highly recommend it as a highly con

This work is a general and synthetic study of the post-industrial era and its implications for library and information services in the United States. Since Daniel Bell promulgated his "post-industrial" metaphor in the early 1970s, it has become one of the most dominant metaphors in contemporary America. His ideas on the nature of the era, especially his articulation of what he refers to as the "information society" have influenced the ways in which government officials, corporate leaders, and citizens think about the future of political, social and economic life in America. This text examines

Making Materials Flow describes in plain language another step in implementing a complete lean business system. LEI’s first workbook, Learning to See, focused on where to start — at the value stream for each product family within your facilities. Seeing the Whole then expanded the value stream map beyond facility walls, all the way from raw materials to customer. After mapping has identified waste and potential applications of flow and pull, you can use the techniques in Creating Continuous Flow to implement truly continuous flow in cellularized operations. Making Materia
