The Power of Positive Thinking in Business: 10 Traits for Maximum Results积极思考的力量

作者：  Scott

出版社：Simon & Schuster 2002年04月

简介：
Ventrella, an adjunct professor at Fordham University's Graduate School of Business who works closely with the Norman Vincent Peale Center, adapts the principles of Peale's mega-bestseller, The Power of Positive Thinking, to the workplace. In keeping with Peale's teachings, Ventrella argues that although people often focus on external factors, the only meaningful limitations they face at work are self-imposed. In a logical, plausible text, Ventrella guides readers beyond self-destructive feelings ("It's awful when I make a mistake") and behaviors, arguing, for example, that the people who are willing to make mistakes often make the best decisions. As Peale proposed and Ventrella reinforces, positive thinkers are focused, determined, patient, confident, calm, enthusiastic and optimistic. They trust themselves, others (and, possibly, a higher power), and they have integrity all of which Ventrella illuminates by presenting exercises, posing critical questions to the reader (e.g., "Would I like it if my actions were broadcast for all to hear?") and describing practical examples from the business world (e.g., Levi Strauss's decision not to do business with China because of its human rights violations). While it's doubtful that even the most earnest readers will be able to transform themselves into positive thinkers overnight, most people looking for a fresh perspective on work and life would benefit from reading this highly reassuring volume that makes Dr. Peale's mission ("showing people how to recapture their innate positiveness, especially when faced with adversity or challenge") surprisingly fresh. (May 10)Forecast: This book's old-fashioned, almost religious tone may put off some readers, but it should easily find a wide audience among people hoping to adopt a healthier attitude toward work.

The New Normal

作者：  WANN

出版社：Holtzbrinck Publishers, LLC 2007年01月

简介：

In Simple Prosperity, Dave Wann showed readers how to have an abundant, sustainable life. In The New Normal, he challenges us to do some heavy lifting and transform our non-sustainable culture by transforming ourselves. For Wann, our current "old normal" lifestyle - buying water in disposable bottles, allowing the government to ignore global warming - will not preserve the planet. To nurture our world, he challenges us to rethink our lives, stand up for a healthy planet and move towards a "new normal" lifestyle in an agenda that includes:
- Initiating local business alliances that actively lobby for local buying.
- Creating an investment strategy that values the balance of nature.
- Supporting the design, manufacture, and use of products made with natural chemicals.
- Publicly advocating a more efficient use of water by placing a higher cultural value on wetlands, streams, rivers, and lakes.

The New Normal is Dave Wann's way forward, a blueprint for a better life that preserves our world.

Kuga Varieties:Fiber Varieties over a Sy

作者：  Michio

出版社：高等教育出版社 2018年09月

简介：
Mathematics is the queen of sciences. She is pure， noble and attractive， and also has a distinct character in comparison with subjects in sciences such as physics： its permanent relevance and eternal validness ofits theories and theorems. Whatever was once proved will stay true forever.
　　Mathematics is a vast subject， and many new concepts， theories and results spring up like mushrooms after spring rain. Similarly， there is also a large number of new mathematics books appearing in libraries and on bookshelves. Probably due to the usefulness of mathematics and its foundational nature， there seems to be more books in mathematics than in other subjects. On the other hand， only a limited number， or even a few， of them stand out and are appreciated and used by many people. The best test on the quality of books is the test of time.
　　In this series ofbooks Classical Topics in Mathe'matics， we have selected books written by leading experts on topics which are well-tested by time. We believe that in spite of the passage of time， their power and value have not diminished， and hence they bear the trademark of the classical mathematics.
　　The first volumes of this series consist of an annotated version of Klein's masterpiece Lectures on， the icosahedron， and the solution， of equations of the fifth deg'ree， and the first English translation of Klein and Fricke's four big volumes on modular functions and automorphic functions. For this series， we have tried to pick books which share or reflect Klein's vision of the grand unity of mathematics.
　　The publication of this series of books is consistent with the motto of the Higher Education Press： to provide high quality books on the essential mathematics to the world mathematics community at an affordable price.
