Scattered Minds explodes the myth of attention deficit disorder as genetically based – and offers real hope and advice for children and adults who live with the condition. Gabor Maté is a revered physician who specializes in neurology, psychiatry and psychology – and himself has ADD. With wisdom gained through years of medical practice and research, Scattered Minds is a must-read for parents – and for anyone interested how experiences in infancy shape the biology and psychology of the human brain.Scattered Minds:- Demonstrates that ADD is not an inherited illness, but a reversible impairment and developmental delay- Explains that in ADD, circuits in the brain whose job is emotional self-regulation and attention control fail to develop in infancy – and why- Shows how ‘distractibility’ is the psychological product of life experience- Allows parents to understand what makes their ADD children tick, and adults with ADD to gain insights into their emotions and behaviours- Expresses optimism

Radar Meteorology: A First Course introduces undergraduate and graduate students to the technology and application of radar in 21st century meteorology and atmospheric sciences. The book, designed to accompany university courses in radar meteorology, will have three distinct parts. In the first part, the reader will be introduced to electromagnetic wave propagation and radar design considerations. This part will then develop the techniques used to retrieve the key quantities central to radar meteorology: the effective radar reflectivity factor, the Doppler radial velocity and spectral width, and polarization variables. The second part will focus on operational meteorological applications, including data quality control, precipitation estimation and hydrometeorological applications, warm season mid-latitude severe weather, cold season hazardous weather, and tropical cyclones. The third part of the book will focus on research applications, including research

This book summarizes the current status of theoretical and experimental progress in 2 dimensional graphene-like monolayers and few-layers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs). Semiconducting monolayer TMDCs, due to the presence of a direct gap, significantly extend the potential of low-dimensional nanomaterials for applications in nanoelectronics and nano-optoelectronics as well as flexible nano-electronics with unprecedented possibilities to control the gap by external stimuli. Strong quantum confinement results in extremely high exciton binding energies which forms an interesting platform for both fundamental studies and device applications. Breaking of spatial inversion symmetry in monolayers results in strong spin-valley coupling potentially leading to their use in valleytronics.Starting with the basic chemistry of transition metals, the reader is introduced to the rich field of transition metal dichalcogenides. After a chapter on three dimensional crystals and a descri

Trapped in a world where magic is powerful and dreams are real, Cole continues his quest in book three of thisNew York Times bestselling “fanciful, action-packed adventure” series (Publishers Weekly, starred review), from the author of the Fablehaven and Beyonders series.Cole Randolph still can’t believe the way his life has been turned inside out. Stuck in a strange land far from home, he found his friend Dalton and has survived the first two kingdoms of the Outskirts. But none of that has prepared him for the magnetic highways and robotic bounty hunters of Zeropolis.Ruled by Abram Trench, the one Grand Shaper who stayed loyal to the evil High King, the government of Zeropolis uses advanced technologies to keep tight control. Luckily, the resistance in Zeropolis is anchored by the Crystal Keepers—a group of young rebels with unique weapons.On the run from the High King’s secret police, Cole and Dalton venture to find more of their lost friends—and help their new friend, Mira, locate h

David Card and Alan B. Krueger have already made national news with their pathbreaking research on the minimum wage. Here they present a powerful new challenge to the conventional view that higher minimum wages reduce jobs for low-wage workers. In a work that has important implications for public policy as well as for the direction of economic research, the authors put standard economic theory to the test, using data from a series of recent episodes, including the 1992 increase in New Jersey's minimum wage, the 1988 rise in California's minimum wage, and the 1990-91 increases in the federal minimum wage. In each case they present a battery of evidence showing that increases in the minimum wage lead to increases in pay, but no loss in jobs.A distinctive feature of Card and Krueger's research is the use of empirical methods borrowed from the natural sciences, including comparisons between the "treatment" and "control" groups formed when the minimum wag

One of the most notable features of nanometer scale CMOS technology is the increasing magnitude of variability of the key device parameters affecting performance of integrated circuits. The growth of variability can be attributed to multiple factors, including the difficulty of manufacturing control, the emergence of new systematic variation-generating mechanisms, and most importantly, the increase in atomic-scale randomness, where device operation must be described as a stochastic process. In addition to wide-sense stationary stochastic device variability and temperature variation, existence of non-stationary stochastic electrical noise associated with fundamental processes in integrated-circuit devices represents an elementary limit on the performance of electronic circuits.In an attempt to address these issues, Stochastic Process Variation in Deep-Submicron CMOS: Circuits and Algorithms offers unique combination of mathematical treatment of random process variation, electrical noise

《It's About Excellence》重新界定了企業倫理在組織中的角色，明確指出倫理不只是「避免違法」或「降低風險」的工具，而是追求卓越與長期成功的核心動力。作者 David W. Gill 結合多年企業顧問與倫理教學經驗，指出若倫理僅由法務或合規部門主導，往往流於事後補救，反而錯失建立高信任文化的關鍵契機。本書主張，真正健康的組織倫理應由全體成員共同形塑與實踐，透過清楚而具啟發性的使命與願景，將價值觀深植於企業文化與日常決策之中。倫理不再是外加規範，而是一種內建於組織運作的行動準則，引導企業在競爭中做出更好的選擇。文字風格清楚務實，理論基礎紮實，並提供可操作的方法與案例，適合企業領導者、管理者，以及關心組織文化與永續經營的讀者閱讀，是一本兼顧理念與實務的企業倫理入門與進階讀物。It's About Excellence: Building Ethically Healthy Organizations For too many businesses and their leaders today, business ethics is just about staying out of jail. Litigation, indictment, and penal system avoidance is not just the first but the only reason they think ethics is important. It's about damage control. It's not by accident that these damage control ethics programs are generally under the guidance of legal and compliance departments. Of course companies need a damage control, crisis management, trouble-shooting component in their ethics and management toolbox. But if that's all there is, something of critical business value is missin

This book was written primarily for parents and teachers of high school students who suffer from learning difficulties that stem from a variety of different causes. Just a few among those possible difficulties are attention-deficit disorder, difficulties in perception, motor control problems, and even severe anxiety attacks related to test-taking situations. The author presents a strategic study program and test-taking plan specifically designed to help such students prepare for the SAT college entrance test. Separate chapters outline test-taking strategies for all three sections of the SAT: Critical Reading, Writing, and Math. The author also advises on how to apply each recommended strategy. Appendices cover lists of prefixes, suffixes, and roots for students to master as they bring their vocabulary up to SAT levels; plus a list of math terms and definitions to help them understand the SAT Math section's questions and answer them correctly.

PowerShell針對管理任務（admin tasks）提供了完整的命令列控制（command line control）功能，讓我們可以處理像是新增使用者、匯出資料、檔案管理等任務。無論是編寫單行的命令還是複雜的指令碼，用以管理雲端資源和CI/CD管線，PowerShell都能擔當重任。而現在PowerShell是真正的跨平台工具，當我們在Windows、Linux和macOS之間切換時，甚至不需要更換指令碼語言。 本書的前身是PowerShell領域權威、社群傳奇人物Don Jones和Jeffery Hicks合著的暢銷書《Learn Windows PowerShell in a Month of Lunches》，已經有超過10萬名讀者運用前三個版本成功自學，堪稱全世界最熱賣的PowerShell書籍之一。本書被翻譯成多種不同的語言，為許多人打開了接觸PowerShell的大門。 作者群利用短篇教學和實作練習，循序漸進、由淺入深，引導讀者從第一個命令開始，一直到為Windows、Linux和macOS編寫及偵錯可重複使用的指令碼（reusable script）。每天只要投入一個小時（午餐時間正是一段適合閱讀的時間），持續閱讀一個月後，很快就能學會使用PowerShell處理日趨複雜的自動化任務。 ✍本書特色✍★利用說明系統來進行探索★在macOS和Linux上使用PowerShell★背景作業和自動化技巧★管理各大雲端服務供應商的雲端服務★常用語法和命令的速查表 本書的目標讀者相當廣泛，但主要還是針對剛開始學習PowerShell的人。相關的工作職位包括技術客服、伺服器管理員等。讀者不需要有PowerShell或Bash的使用經驗。
