All over the world, many people who live in urban areas find themselves in an arduous social situation. In the third world, people in overcrowded metropolitan areas have a problem in maintaining even the slightest standards of living. But also richer parts of the world, the United States, Europe and the far-East, show growing social inequalities in their cities. And social problems are not confined to the large metropolitan areas: impoverishment, long-term unemployment, social isolation, and the dependency on welfare programs pops up in medium-sized cities and even in smaller communities. At the same time, these cities are confronted with a growing bureaucratic conglomerate which is increasingly inapt to fight social degeneration. The catastrophe seems to be total: how to deal at once with declining social conditions and bureaucratic inadequacy? Two American authors, Osborne and Plastrik (1997), claim to have found the answer: just banish bureaucracy. The liberating accomplishments of the free market will elevate ordinary citizens and force lazy, incompetent bureaucrats to do their work properly. If they succeed, they survive. Otherwise, these agencies will vanish. They illustrate their arguments with the American city of 'Uphill Battle' which stopped its decline by reinventing government. Strict performance measures, allotting financial controls and incentives to the citizens, and improving accountability have saved the city. We should, however, be very careful in taking such measures so far that they banish bureaucracy. It is far from obvious that simply banishing bureaucracy indeed will help people in poor social situations.

Viktor Axelsen er Danmarks mest unikke sportsmand. Han er verdensmester og olympisk mester i badminton, begge dele uden at tabe et eneste sæt. Og han har vundet flere af de største turneringer i verdens næstmest spillede sport. I 'Vindervilje' fortæller Viktor Axelsen om at være drevet af en særlig mentalitet. Han gør op med alt, der hedder plejer og søger konstant sportslig og personlig udvikling. I bogen fortæller han åbnet om at bruge utraditionelle metoder, begå fejl og lære af dem, have markante holdninger og tage opsigtvækkende valg både privat og professionelt. Han fortæller blandt andet om sin kontroversielle flytning til Dubai, om at skabe sit eget setup og samarbejdet med B.S. Christiansen, om at flyve fra en turnering i et isolationskammer og selvfølgelig også om sportslige højdepunkter. Samtidig brænder Viktor Axelsen for at motivere andre - fra sportsudøvere til erhversfolk. Med erfaringer fra sin succesfulde karriere og konkrete råd vil inspirere læseren til at jagte sit fulde potentiale.

”Et lavere testosteronniveau er ikke kun skyld i nedsat forplantningsevne, det hænger også sammen med sygdomme hos voksne mænd. I og med at det ud over alderen også er livsstilen, der betinger det faldende testosteronniveau, er alle livsstilssygdomme forbundet med lavt testosteron: sukkersyge, hjerte-kar-sygdomme, visse kræftformer og lidelse i bevægeapparatet samt stresslidelser.” Testosteron er det kønshormon, der fysisk adskiller mænd fra kvinder, og det har afgørende betydning for mænds maskulinitet, performance og selvtillid. Læge Pia Norup tager læseren på rejse gennem mandekroppen – fra hjerte til maveregion og understel, og fra muskler til psyke. Hun giver øvelser og kostråd og viser, hvordan et sundt liv ikke alene hjælper til at undgå livsstilssygdomme, men også øger testosteronniveauet. Med stor faglighed synliggør forfatteren, hvordan indre og ydre sundhed påvirker alt fra arbejde til livsglæde og fertilitet.

Business Excellence and Total Quality Management (TQM) models provide a means of measuring the satisfaction of customers, employees and shareholders simultaneously. A number of such models currently exist, but, the author argues, none of these address all dimensions of TQM. This book introduces the principles of TQM, and establishes their use in measuring Business Excellence in an organisational environment. It comparatively evaluates various TQM and Business Excellence models, and discusses the complexities of measuring success. Presenting important, innovative work by one of the most eminent scholars in the field, this book is essential reading for both academics and professionals working in quality management.

Edited by one of the best-known and most widely respected figures in the field, "Planning for Information Systems" is a comprehensive, single source overview of the myriad ideas and processes that are identified with IS planning. While many chapters deal with high level strategic planning, the book gives equal attention to on-the-ground planning issues.Part I, 'Key Concepts of IS Planning', focuses on how IS planning has evolved over the years; business-IS strategic alignment; and the role of dynamic organizational capabilities in leveraging IS competencies. Part II, 'The Organizational IS Planning Process,' describes IS planning in terms of critical success factors and includes a knowledge-based view of IS planning; a practical assessment of strategic alignment; the IT budgeting process; the search for an optimal level of IS strategic planning; and the role of organizational learning in IS planning.Part III, 'IS Investment Planning', deals with predicting the value that an IS project may have; a 'rational expectations' approach to assessing project payoffs; assessing the social costs and benefits of projects; an options-based approach to managing project risks; planning for project teams; and the moderating effects of coordinated planning. Part IV, 'Goals and Outcomes of IS Planning', considers information strategy as a goal and/or outcome of IS planning; IT infrastructure as a goal or outcome; competitive advantage as a goal or outcome; e-process partnership chains; and planning successful Internet-based projects.

This book studies selected advanced flight control schemes for an uncertain quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems in the presence of constant external disturbances, parametric uncertainties, measurement noise, time-varying external disturbances, and random external disturbances. Furthermore, in all the control techniques proposed in this book, it includes the simulation results with comparison to other nonlinear control schemes recently developed for the tracking control of a quadrotor UAV. The main contributions of the present book for quadrotor UAV systems are as follows: (i) the proposed control methods are based on the high-order sliding mode controller (SMC) and hybrid control algorithm with an optimization method. (ii) the finite-time control schemes are developed by using fast terminal SMC (FTSMC), nonsingular FTSMC (NFTSMC), global time-varying SMC, and adaptive laws. (iii) the fractional-order flight control schemes are developed by using the fractional-order calculus theory, super twisting algorithm, NFTSMC, and the SMC. This book covers the research history and importance of quadrotor system subject to system uncertainties, external wind disturbances, and noise measurements, as well as the research status of advanced flight control methods, adaptive flight control methods, and flight control based on fractional-order theory. The book would be interesting to most academic undergraduate, postgraduates, researchers on flight control for drones and applications of advanced controllers in engineering field. This book presents a must-survey for advanced finite-time control for quadrotor system. Some parts of this book have the potential of becoming the courses for the modelling and control of autonomous flying machines. Readers (academic researcher, undergraduate student, postgraduate student, MBA/executive, and education practitioner) interested in nonlinear control methods find this book an investigation. This book can be used as a good reference for the academic research on the control theory, drones, terminal sliding mode control, and related to this or used in Ph.D. study of control theory and their application in field engineering.
