    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "Effective Research Data Management (RDM) is a key component of research integrity and reproducible research, and its importance is increasingly emphasised by funding bodies, governments, and research institutions around the world. However, many researchers are unfamiliar with RDM best practices, and research support staff are faced with the difficult task of delivering support to researchers across different disciplines and career stages. What strategies can institutions use to solve these problems? Engaging Researchers with Data Management is an invaluable collection of 24 case studies, drawn from institutions across the globe, that demonstrate clearly and practically how to engage the research community with RDM. These case studies together illustrate the variety of innovative strategies research institutions have developed to engage with their researchers about managing research data. Each study is presented concisely and clearly, highlighting the essential ingredients that led to its success and challenges encountered along the way. By interviewing key staff about their experiences and the organisational context, the authors of this book have created an essential resource for organisations looking to increase engagement with their research communities. This handbook is a collaboration by research institutions, for research institutions. It aims not only to inspire and engage, but also to help drive cultural change towards better data management. It has been written for anyone interested in RDM, or simply, good research practice."

    Format: 270 pages , illustrations, photographs (colour) , 31 cm
    ISBN: 9783899555981 , 3899555988
    Content: "Architecture reflects the period of time in which it was created. This is true for landmark buildings and major public projects as well as residential and family properties. Yet architecture is also an expression of an individual s personality, needs, taste, and his or her overall take on life. Different countries, cultures, and lifestyles influence the design of structures and interiors as much as the local climate and other regional characteristics do. What does a house need to become a home? Infinite Space provides answers to this question that are as varied as the people behind the projects presented on its pages. Singles, couples, and families; clients, architects, and suppliers they all have their own ideas of what makes a modern home. While the featured buildings have a contemporary clarity, lightness, and openness in common, they differ greatly in their details. The spectrum of materials used includes wood, stone, metal, and glass. Colors range from bright to subdued; furnishings from glamorously elaborate to tastefully understated. Their unique combination gives each house its character or, rather, reflects the character of its owners, builders, and residents. A terrace by a lake, a dramatic fireplace, a living room bathed in sunlight adjoining an open-plan kitchen, a pool amongst palm trees, a sauna in the forest, a bedroom with a sky view Infinite Space showcases stunning projects from all around the world captured by renowned architecture and interior photographer James Silverman on his travels. In his images of living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, dining rooms, working areas, children s rooms, and gardens, Silverman explores the interplay of functional and decorative space, as well as interiors and exteriors. Infinite Space takes a nuanced look at how houses are constructed today. This book will not only inspire professional architects and interior designers, but it will also prompt anyone building or renovating a house to define their own particular home in more detail little by little, and each time slightly differently. Until their dream home becomes a reality."

    Series Statement: Aga Khan Award for Architecture ; 05
    Content: "Recent social, political and environmental upheavals have had a two-fold effect on the built environment in Third World countries. They have destroyed the traditional cultural structure in rural areas, which has led to homelessness and the marginalization of entire communities, and large-scale urbanization has become a powerful phenomenon of which the Islamic World is very much a part. Such global changes have had a dramatic impact on the jury for the Aga Khan Award for Architecture, whose selections for 1992 are presented here. The projects selected this year, which address issues relevant to both the developing and developed world, are economically sustainable, humanistic solutions to difficult problems, and generate a new architectural language. They provide a valuable insight into an alternative design approach for both rural and urban environments. Essays by Suha Ozkan of the Aga Khan Award for Architecture, Mohammed Arkoun, Professor of Islamic Thought at the Sorbonne,Paris, and Arif Hasan, Pakistani architect and planner, place the projects within the context of the major social transition now underway, and an article by the late Hassan Fathy on Contemporaneity in the City provides a historical perspective. Each award-winning project is described in detail by Charles Moore and Selma al-Radi, and they are comparatively reviewed by James Steele, and a brief history of Samarkand, where the awards were presented, completes this volume."

    ISBN: 9780764330247 , 0764330241
    Content: "The problem: Basically we can buy furniture, build it or inherit it. All of it is bulky, heavy, often fragile & always a bitch to move. There are hundreds of books to tell us 'how-to' design & 'build-it-yourself'. Also even more books to tell us what to buy (& where & for how much!). Often there may be one or two knock-down or folding or inflatable pieces included, but just accidentally. The solution: We have put together a catalog of furniture you can build yourself easily, or buy or adapt. We are giving you instructions on what to buy or make, and where. Al of it can be folded or knocked down, stacked, inflated or (ecologically responsibly) recycled or thrown away."
    Content: "Victor Papanek and James Hennessey set out to change the world in the mid-1970s, empowering the people to create their own inexpensive furnishings. Their books, Nomadic Furniture 1 and Nomadic Furniture 2, are reprinted here in their entirety. In their vision of home design, everything is lightweight, folds, inflates, knocks down, stacks, or is disposable. They offer simple instructions for making beds, chairs, sofas, stools, and tables, using inexpensive and recycled materials. Their ideas open up channels for creativity, as well as for saving money and lightening a household's footprint. This practical, lighthearted approach to living is certainly worth a revisit, in a world where environmental consciousness is quickly evolving."

In their new book, Victor Papanek and James Hennessey include a vast array of ideas for which they had no room in their first volume, as well as a great many ideas that have come up sinde its publication. Nomadic Furniture 2 is a bigger book, with a wider range than the first. It goes into all sorts of difficult and important new areas such as storage, lighting, and rooms for children. And the authors give valueable guidance on the selection of useful and well-designed protographic and stereophic equipment."

New real-world case studies continue to correspond with this industry reality. The text's focus is on teaching the future manager the potential effect on business of the most current IT technologies such as the Internet, Intranets, and Extranets for enterprise collaboration, and how IT contributes to competitive advantage, reengineering business processes, problem solving, and decision-making. The benchmark text for the syllabus organized by technology (a week on databases, a week on networks, a week on systems development, etc.) taught from a managerial perspective. O'Brien defines technology and then explains how companies use the technology to improve performance. Real world cases finalize the explanation."
    Note: EDITORIAL NOTE: in previous ed. James O'Brian is named as first author.

    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "Architecture has long been understood as a cultural discipline able to articulate the human condition and lift the human spirit, yet the spirituality of architecture is rarely directly addressed in academic scholarship. The seventeen chapters provide a diverse range of perspectives, grouped according to topical themes: Being in the World; Sacred, Secular, and the Contemporary Condition; Symbolic Engagements; Sacred Landscapes; and Spirituality and the Designed Environment. Even though the authors' approach the subject from a range of disciplines and theoretical positions, all share interests in the need to rediscover, redefine, or reclaim the sacred in everyday experience, scholarly analysis, and design."

    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "Most Americans -- especially young peope -- move more and more frequently, over increasingly greater distances. Relocation in other countries and on onther continents is routine. Furniture designs to suit these contemporary nomads are developing rapidly; many are improvised under the stress of unexpected living conditions. This book is the first to catalog all the easily available existing designs, and to offer new ideas for compact, flexible, and fortright equipment for homes. It shows people who have no previous knowledge of design or building how to make furnishings which are foldable, inflatable, or stackable, and which they can discard later without being ecologically irresponsible. The book begins with a brief consideration of human measurements and needs: How tall should a table be, for easiest use? What size chair makes people most comfortable? Living environments are analyzed in sections on eating, working, seating, sleeping, storage, and lighting. The special needs of older people, children, and babies are answered in concrete and realistic designs. Sketches and specifications are given for simple-to-build furniture. Also included are photographs, drawings, and descriptions of existing, inexpensive furniture now available both here and abroad."
