The ihsan Ketin NATO Advanced Study Institute on the Tectonic Evolution of the Tethyan Region was conceived in 1982 in Veszprem, Hungary, when three of the organizers (B. C. B. , L. H. R. and A. M. C. 9. ) had come together for a meeting on the tectonics of the Pannonian basin. All three of us had experience in the Tethyan belt and all three of us had been for some time deploring the lack of communication among workers of this immense orogenic belt. Much new work had been completed in such previously little-known areas as Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, the People's Republic of China, the entire Himalayan region, as well as new work in the European parts of the chain. Also, ironically, parts of t...
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.
Tarih, bir devletin güçlü ve istikrarlı bir yapıya kavuşması, böylelikle uzun ömürlü olabilmesi için, en başta o devleti oluşturan bireylerin kendine güvenen, güçlü ve geleceğe emin bir şekilde bakabilen karakterlere sahip insanlardan oluşması gerektiğini her zaman göstermiştir. Güçlü olmak, bireylerin kendi öz güvenlerinin tam olmasına ve toplum hiyerarşisi ile yaşayışının kargaşaya yer vermeyecek şekilde düzenlenmesine bağlıdır.

Bu çeşit bir toplum ve devlet düzeni kurmuş olan milletler, uzun süreler rahat ya�...

Bu çalışma, ülkemizde yerel düzeydeki siyaset anlama çabasının bir ürünüdür. Bilindiği gibi, 1973 yerel seçimlerinden sonra kent yönetimleri sorunu Türk siyasal yaşamının gündeminde yoğun olarak yer almaya başlamıştır. Bunun başlıca nedeni, kentlerin hızla artmakta olan sorunlarının çözümünün, toplumun çeşitli kesimlerince, 1970'lerden itibaren artık ertelenemeyeceğinin daha çok oranda anlaşılmaya başlanmış olmasıdır. 1980'lere kadar, söz konusu sorun kamu oyunda yoğun olarak tartışılmıştır. Bu tartışmalar, kentlerin ve dolayısıyla kent yönetimlerinin sorunlarının nereden kaynaklandığını ana hatlarıyla ortaya koymuştur. Öte...
