简介： 詹姆斯·沃森——DNA双螺旋结构的发现者之一，就是这样一位科学家。他的伟大成就、古怪行径、丰富故事以及有趣文风足以让他为自己写上好几部自传——事实上他也毫不客气地这么做了。在获得诺贝尔奖后不久，他就出版了风靡全球的自传——《双螺旋》。在双螺旋发现50周年纪念之前，以其情感历程为主线的自传《基因、女郎、伽莫夫》又得以问世。这些传记和学术界如潮的评论令他成为了一名现代“话题”科学家。本书以作者及其妻子在2000和2002年间对詹姆斯·沃森进行的三次访谈为基础，并增添了一些评论，还摘录了一些对这场生物学革命有贡献的其他人，如查加夫、克里克、布伦纳、等人的访谈。

简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 British chemist Watson defines functional foods as those designed to perform a function other than avoiding starvation, but offers no argument that any food has in fact been designed for the benefit of humans. British, Canadian, Irish, and Japanese contributors from the food industry and academia discuss their marketing and the scientific evidence underlying claims about their efficacy and safety.

简介： 統一集團總裁高清愿：本書非常值得一讀！ 王品集團董事長戴勝益　~ 在地美味推薦 ~ ＊麥當勞的金色雙拱，幾乎已成為世界公認的流行文化標誌。九十六％的美國孩童都熟悉麥當勞，據統計，有九十六％的美國人至少去過一次麥當勞，有八％的美國人平均每天都吃麥當勞。香港和東京的情形也類似，正急起直追的是北京的麥當勞。麥當勞無疑早已成為跨國企業的經典，也是跨國經營的活教材，它不僅從美國本土拓展到其他西方國家。更難得的是，麥當勞竟然也成功地打入以米食為主的亞洲市場，甚至讓麥當勞成為亞洲年輕人生活中非常重要的一部分。 ＊本書描述了麥當勞在東亞五大城市：台北、香港、中國大陸北京、日本東京、南韓首爾，如何融入當地文化的成功經驗。在跨國經營的背後，麥當勞其實十分重視文化差異這件事。麥當勞董事長詹姆士．坎特洛普曾說過，麥當勞的目標是「盡可能成為當地文化的一部分」，除了在各地積極舉辦各種社區活動外，當日本人覺得正餐一定要吃飯才吃得飽，又想吃燒烤的料理時，東京的麥當勞就從善如流，開始賣咖哩飯和照燒豬肉堡。在香港人的認知中，笑臉迎人必有詐，麥當勞就調整當地員工教育訓練的方式，不去強調麥當勞一貫的微笑式服務。總之，麥當勞會根據不同的市場環境在經營方式上做調整。 ＊本書一針見血地指出，跨國企業的本地化是一條雙向道路，在可能改變當地文化的同時，也修正公司的標準營運程序，並輔以麥當勞在東亞五大都市的實際案例，對於想開發海外市場的本土企業，本書非常具有參考意義。 < TOP>

简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 Watson (international relations, U. of St. Andrews, Scotland) sets out the convergence criteria that states must meet in order to quality for access to the future Economic and Monetary Union of Europe. Considering both economic and political rationales for the criteria within a framework of international political economy, she investigates the relationship between the economics and politics, how domestic and international factors impact realization, and the overall role of the state. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.   Publisher Summary 2 This book provides a thorough knowledge of the nature of the convergence criteria which states must meet in order to qualify for accession to the future Economic and Monetary Union of Europe and comprehensive coverage of both the economic and political rationale of the criteria within the framework of an international political economy approach. Thus, throughout the course of the analysis, three questions in particular are addressed: first, what is the relationship between the economics and politics of the convergence criteria; second, how do domestic and international factors impact upon their future realisation; and third what, overall, is the role of the state. This book gives valuable insights into the Economic and Monetary Union debate.

简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 As the first academic collection to explore the subject of pension fund governance, according to editors Evans (U. of New South Wales, Australia), Orszag (Watson Wyatt Ltd, UK) and Piggott (U. of New South Wales, Australia), this volume attempts to strike a balance amongst the topic's various dimensions by discussing theoretical and empirical issues, covering private and public pension funds, and including broad coverage of the major markets of the world. The volume's ten chapters discuss the structure and organizational form of corporate pension plans; the need for reform of member protection as funds make the transition from pay-as-you-go to fully funded arrangements; the effects of conflicting interests within pension fund systems; global systems of governance and their economic, financial, and legal determinants; the lack of strong governance procedures in public pension plans; the appropriate construction of benchmarks for measurement of the investment performance of pension funds; US public pension plan practices related to administration, benefits, contributions, and membership and their correlations to plan funding patterns and investment performance; the findings of a survey of governance in Australian superannuation funds; and social guarantee funds in the United Sates and the United Kingdom.

简介：With an Introduction by Beau Riffenburgh. Henry Morton Stanley's greeting to the Scottish medical missionary David Livingstone...'Dr Livingstone, I presume?' is to exploration what Holmes's Elementary, my dear Watson is to detective fiction. It took place in a remote African settlement when a travelling correspondent for the New York Herald successfully concluded an assignment to find the renowned explorer. But the meeting, and the events surrounding it, proved to be more than just a simple news story. Stanley s accounts of his expedition not only helped transform Livingstone into one of the great Victorian heroes, but were also the springboard from which Stanley himself became the most accomplished of all African explorers. How I Found Livingstone was written in six weeks, published in November 1872, and had sold through three printings by Christmas. For Stanley was not only a great explorer, he was also one of the most talented writers ever to tell the tale of travel and discovery in Africa. His account of his journey through East Africa, and his time spent investigating Lake Tanganyika with Livingstone, is one of the classics of African exploration.

简介：The raucous political debates of Jacksonian America often seemed to pit those who defended the ideals of liberty against those who asserted power. Harry L. Watson argues that these were serious policy disputes about the future of the Republic and the nature of its society and economy, and they led to intensified public involvement in politics and enduring political parties. His narrative shows how religious revivalism, new waves of immigration, westward expansion, the deeply divisive issue of Afro-American slavery, nascent industrialism, and other socioeconomic forces put strains on America's political framework and, in the end, transformed it.

简介：     "The Complete Sherlock Holmes, Volume I," by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is part of the "Barnes and Noble Classics"" "series, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras. Here are some of the remarkable features of "Barnes and Noble Classics": New introductions commissioned from today's top writers and scholars Biographies of the authors Chronologies of contemporary historical, biographical, and cultural events Footnotes and endnotes Selective discussions of imitations, parodies, poems, books, plays, paintings, operas, statuary, and films inspired by the work Comments by other famous authors Study questions to challenge the reader's viewpoints and expectations Bibliographies for further reading Indices and Glossaries, when appropriateAll editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. "Barnes and Noble Classics "pulls together a constellation of influences-biographical, historical, and literary-to enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works."" "The Complete Sherlock Holmes" comprises four novels and fifty-six short stories revolving around the world's most popular and influential fictional detective-the eccentric, arrogant, and ingenious Sherlock Holmes. He and his trusted friend, Dr. Watson, step from Holmes's comfortable quarters at 221b Baker Street into the swirling fog of Victorian London to exercise that unique combination of detailed observation, vast knowledge, and brilliant deduction. Inevitably, Holmes rescues the innocent, confounds the guilty, and solves themost perplexing puzzles known to literature. "Volume I" of "The Complete Sherlock Holmes" starts with Holmes's first appearance, "A Study in Scarlet," a chilling murder novel complete with bloodstained walls and cryptic clues, followed by the baffling "The Sign of Four," which introduces Holmes's cocaine problem and Watson's future wife. The story collections "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" and "The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes" feature such renowned tales as "A Scandal in Bohemia," "The Red-Headed League," and "The Musgrave Ritual." Tired of writing stories about Holmes, his creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, killed him off at the end of "The Final Problem," the last tale in "The Memoirs," But the public outcry was so great that eight years later he published the masterful "The Hound of the Baskervilles," which supposedly takes place before Holmes's death. The separate "Volume II" of "The Complete Sherlock Holmes" collects the remaining accounts of Holmes's exploits, including "The Adventure of the Empty House," which reveals the elaborate circumstances behind Holmes's literary resurrection. Kyle Freeman, a Sherlock Holmes enthusiast for many years, earned two graduate degrees in English literature from Columbia University, where his major was twentieth-century British literature.

简介：This book presents matrix algebra in a way that is well-suited for those with an interest in statistics or a related discipline. It provides thorough and unified coverage of the fundamental concepts along with the specialized topics encountered in areas of statistics such as linear statistical models and multivariate analysis. It includes a number of very useful results that have only been available from relatively obscure sources. Detailed proofs are provided for all results. The style and level of presentation are designed to make the contents accessible to a broad audience. The book is essentially self-contained, though it is best-suited for a reader who has had some previous exposure to matrices (of the kind that might be acquired in a beginning course on linear or matrix algebra). It includes exercises, it can serve as the primary text for a course on matrices or as a supplementary text in courses on such topics as linear statistical models or multivariate analysis, and it will be a valuable reference. David A. Harville is a research staff member emeritus in the Mathematical Sciences Department of the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center. Prior to joining the Research Center, he spent ten years as a mathematical statistician in the Applied Mathematics Research Laboratory of the Aerospace Research Laboratories (at Wright-Patterson, Air Force Base, Ohio), followed by twenty years as a full professor in the Department of Statistics at Iowa State University. He has extensive experience in the area of linear statistical models, having taught (on numberous occasions) M.S.- and Ph.D.-level courses on that topic, having been the thesis adviser of ten Ph.D. students, and having authored more than 70 research articles. His work has been recognized by his having been named a Fellow of the American Statistical Association and of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, by his election as a member of the International Statistical Institute, and by his having served as an associate editor of Biometrics and of the Journal of the American Statistical Association.
