English | ISBN: 3985470111 | 2023 | 293 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Quaternions are non-commutative generalizations of the complex numbers, invented by William Rowan Hamilton in 1843. Their number-theoretical aspects were first investigated by Rudolf Lipschitz in the 1880s, and, in a streamlined form, by Adolf Hurwitz in 1896. This book contains an English translation of Hurwitz's 1919 textbook on this topic as well as his famous 1-2-3-4 theorem on composition algebras. In addition, the reader can find commentaries that shed historical light on the development of this number theory of quaternions, for example, the classical preparatory works of Fermat, Euler, Lagrange and Gauss, to name but a few, the different notions of quaternion integers in the works of Lipschitz and Hurwitz, analogies to the theory of algebraic numbers, and the further development (including Dickson's work in particular). The authors have implemented parts of the book in stand-alone courses, and they believe that the present book can also complement a course on algebraic number theory (with respect to a noncommutative extension of the rational numbers).

English | ISBN: 1443866059 | 2014 | 245 pages | PDF | 2 MB
As climate change continues to batter the coastlines of North America and elsewhere, and as extreme weather events provide abundant proof of its reality, religious leaders can no longer ignore the fact that the human has become a geologic force, a force that must be re-educated and re-formed in order to guarantee safe passage into a sustainable future. Hopefully, Jesuits and their lay partners can continue to provide leadership in regard to this issue, correctly identified by Fr Adolfo Nicolas, SJ, as a top priority. In this particular context, the role of religions and their valuable contributions must be evaluated. Religion's role is not simply one of morality; rather, it seeks, especially in Christianity, to show the face of God. It is out of this relation that believers then seek to live towards the "good," especially in relation to their neighbours, creation and God. Religious believers may have failed severely in communicating this relationship in the twenty-first century. This publication gathers together a roster of Western and Asian experts' contributions from various fields of knowledge related to ecology, anthropology, religions and ethics, economics, technology, and to environmental and health protection studies. This collection of essays embracing a wide scope of current topics, theme and questions will renew awareness of the ecological dilemma and stimulate reflection on its spiritual and social dimensions.

Free Download Michal Szostak, "Humanistic Management, Organization and Aesthetics"
English | ISBN: 1032599855 | 2023 | 294 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
The book is the first worldwide publication of a complex theory of management aesthetics in humanistic management based on the aesthetics and arts approach allowing for a complete and systemic understanding of the management art and art management phenomena. The methodology is based on the critical literature review and empirical research applying qualitative, quantitative, and autoethnographic approaches. The main goal of this monograph is to create a holistic model that organises the issues of management aesthetics and shows the interdependence of the components of this model. The role of this model should be to perform a central function for a complete and systemic understanding of the phenomenon of management aesthetics, as well as to perform the function of a field based on which analysis of individual issues in the area of management aesthetics is conducted. The critical component of this holistic model is Maria Gołaszewska's theory of the aesthetic situation. Two theses of the book are the following: (1) the theory of aesthetics and artistic practice have the potential to enrich the theory and practice of management with qualitative components through deep immersion in the world of values and (2) management theory and practice have the potential to enrich the theory of aesthetics and artistic practice with efficiency components.

The remarkable progress in algorithms for machine and deep learning have opened the doors to new opportunities, and some dark possibilities. However, a bright future awaits those who build on their working methods by including HCAI strategies of design and testing. As many technology companies and thought leaders have argued, the goal is not to replace people, but to empower them by making design choices that give humans control over technology.

Free Download Jacqueline Bhabha, "Human Rights and Adolescence "
English | ISBN: 0812246314 | 2014 | 376 pages | EPUB | 4 MB
While young children's rights have received considerable attention and have accordingly advanced over the past two decades, the rights of adolescents have been neglected. This manifests itself in pervasive gender-based violence, widespread youth disaffection and unemployment, concerning levels of self-abuse, violence and antisocial engagement, and serious mental and physical health deficits. The cost of inaction on these issues is likely to be dramatic in terms of human suffering, lost social and economic opportunities, and threats to global peace and security. Across the range of disciplines that make up contemporary human rights, from law and social advocacy to global health, history, economics, sociology, politics, and psychology, it is time, the contributors of this volume contend, for adolescent rights to occupy a coherent place of their own.
