Coaching para el cambio de la cultura organizacional
La Pontificia Universidad Javeriana Cali y la Universidad Nacional de Colombia sede Palmira, presentan esta obra cuyo propósito es avanzar en la comprensión de los fundamentos del coaching más allá de lo que tradicionalmente circula al respecto. Esto es especialmente cierto si se recuerda que el coaching como parte de las dinámicas organizacionales es un insumo de la conservación del orden de toda la sociedad. Para tal fin, el tema se entrelaza con dos objetos de estudio de larga tradición académica, la cultura organizacional y el liderazgo. Sobre esta base, el coaching resulta vinculado a la identidad de la organización y a las relaciones de grupo. Esto significa un paso desde el a...
From Fundamentals to Applications in Geotechnics
The work of geotechnical engineers contributes to the creation of safe, economic and pleasant spaces to live, work and relax all over the world. Advances are constantly being made, and the expertise of the profession becomes ever more important with the increased pressure on space and resources. This book presents the proceedings of the 15th Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (XV PCSMGE), held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in November 2015. This conference, held every four years, is an important opportunity for international experts, researchers, academics, professionals and geo-engineering companies to meet and exchange ideas and research findings in the ar...
The Leatherback Turtle
The most comprehensive book ever written on leatherback sea turtles. Weighing as much as 2,000 pounds and reaching lengths of over seven feet, leatherback turtles are the world’s largest reptile. These unusual sea turtles have a thick, pliable shell that helps them to withstand great depths—they can swim more than one thousand meters below the surface in search of food. And what food source sustains these goliaths? Their diet consists almost exclusively of jellyfish, a meal they crisscross the oceans to find. Leatherbacks have been declining in recent decades, and some predict they will be gone by the end of this century. Why? Because of two primary factors: human redevelopment of nestin...
Asociatividad: estrategia para el desarrollo nacional
El objetivo de esta obra es diseñar y proponer políticas tendientes al fomento de la asociatividad entre los productores de leche en Colombia, tomando como referente dos cuencas de alta producción lechera: altiplano cundiboyacense y zona sur del país. El fortalecimiento de la asociatividad entre los productores nacionales de leche aparece como requisito ineludible para el éxito de las políticas que ha diseñado el Estado colombiano con el fin de facilitar la adecuación de la producción nacional a los exigentes estándares de competitividad y calidad sanitaria y composicional propios de esquemas eficientes en Europa y Norteamérica.
Cellulose-Based Superabsorbent Hydrogels
With the prospect of revolutionizing specific technologies, this book highlights the most exciting and impactful current research in the fields of cellulose-based superabsorbent hydrogels with their smart applications. The book assembles the newest synthetic routes, characterization methods, and applications in the emergent area. Leading experts in the field have contributed chapters representative of their most recent research results, shedding light on the enormous potential of this field and thoroughly presenting cellulose-based hydrogel functioning materials. The book is intended for the polymer chemists, academic and industrial scientists and engineers, pharmaceutical and biomedical scientists and agricultural engineers engaged in research and development on absorbency, absorbent products and superabsorbent hydrogels. It can also be supportive for undergraduate and graduate students.
Fish Pathology
Fish Pathology is the definitive, classic and essential book on the subject, providing in-depth coverage across all major aspects of fish pathology. This new, fully updated and expanded fourth edition builds upon the success of the previous editions which have made Fish Pathology the best known and most respected book in the field, worldwide.Commencing with a chapter covering the aquatic environment, the book provides comprehensive details of the anatomy and physiology of teleosts, pathophysiology and sytematic physiology, immunology, neoplasia, virology, parasitology, bacteriology, mycology, nutritional pathology and other non-infectious diseases. A final chapter provides extremely useful d...
Conservation Biology
• • • John Harper • • • Nature conservation has changed from an idealistic philosophy to a serious technology. Ecology, the science that underpins the technol ogy of conservation, is still too immature to provide all the wisdom that it must. It is arguable that the desire to conserve nature will in itself force the discipline of ecology to identify fundamental prob lems in its scientific goals and methods. In return, ecologists may be able to offer some insights that make conservation more practicable (Harper 1987). The idea that nature (species or communities) is worth preserv ing rests on several fundamental arguments, particularly the argu ment of nostalgia and the argument of human benefit and need. Nostalgia, of course, is a powerful emotion. With some notable ex ceptions, there is usually a feeling of dismay at a change in the sta tus quo, whether it be the loss of a place in the country for walking or rambling, the loss of a painting or architectural monument, or that one will never again have the chance to see a particular species of bird or plant.
