Download or read book Technology-focused Acquisitions written by Jan Paul Stein and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-07-24 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology-focused acquisitions are an important complement to the firm’s internal product development efforts. There is considerable heterogeneity when comparing individual technology-focused acquisitions – especially with respect to acquisition timing and the deal value. To resolve some of this heterogeneity the author introduces the novel distinction between performance- and functionality-focused acquisitions. He characterizes this distinction based on a theoretical analysis, a qualitative study, and turns to a sample of acquisitions in the field of artificial intelligence for the quantitative study. There are two key findings. First, performance-focused acquisitions take place earlier in a target’s life cycle than functionality-focused ones. Second, the deal value is – at a comparable stage in a target’s life cycle – higher for performance-focused acquisitions. This thesis is relevant for management scholars and managers alike: Scholars learn about the implications of the distinction between performance- and functionality-focused acquisitions on markets for technology. Managers gain insights into how this distinction may guide their strategic decision making.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this accessible presentation of the famous Bates method, Thomas R. Quackenbush (who teaches the Bates method in California and Oregon) describes how eyesight can improve naturally, at any age and regardless of heredity. This book is a wonderful tribute to the genius of Dr. Bates, who was a pioneer in discovering how vision becomes blurred and how it restores itself naturally to clarity and acuity. Now 80 years later, his findings and teachings remain light years ahead of our contemporaries. His approach to treating vision problems was truly holistic and the theme throughout this book is very much an extension of that holistic approach. Dr. Quackenbush is to be commended for his dedication in getting the truth out and keeping the torch burning in this "bible" on vision improvement.

Book excerpt: "With the spotlight on schools and the achievement of subgroups of students, educators need to read this book and reflect on the guiding questions. Then we need to take the challenge and do what we know is right so we are doubling student performance and closing achievement gaps." —Leslie Standerfer, Principal Estrella Foothills High School, Goodyear, AZ "This text is the product of considerable research and disciplined reflection on closing the student achievement gap in schools, unquestionably the most important challenge facing schools. The book offers a wealth of well-illustrated advice about how to address this challenge and should be required reading for every principal and superintendent." —Kenneth Leithwood, Professor of Educational Leadership and Policy Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto The keys to closing achievement gaps from principals who have been there! What does it take to reach across cultural and socioeconomic barriers to bridge student achievement gaps? Drawing on five years of nationwide research, the authors present Learning First, an integrated schoolwide framework of collaborative leadership that helps school leaders advance learning for all students. Using case examples that illustrate how Learning First works in action and providing worksheets, checklists, and rubrics to support implementation, the book shows principals how to apply this field-tested model to four critical dimensions of leadership: Advancing equity and excellence in student learning Developing teachers′ instructional capacity Managing and aligning resources Building and engaging community Learning First! offers an approach that strengthens principals′ leadership skills, delineates shared goals for professional communities, and helps educators keep their eyes on the prize—closing the achievement gap in their schools.

Book excerpt: Did you know that a groundhog is really a type of squirrel? That squirrels control their body temperature with their tails? That most squirrels have yellow-tinted eye lenses that work like sunglasses to reduce glare? That tree squirrels can turn their hind feet completely around when climbing down a tree head-first? In Squirrels: The Animal Answer Guide, Richard W. Thorington Jr. and Katie Ferrell unveil the fascinating world of one of the "most watched" mammals on the planet. The diversity of squirrels is astounding. There are 278 species that inhabit all continents except Antarctica and Australia—varying in size from the lumbering 18-pound gray marmot to the graceful pygmy flying squirrel that is smaller than most mice. In many parts of the world they readily share human habitats, joining us for lunch in a city park, raiding our bird feeders, and sneaking into college dorm rooms through open windows. Reviled as pests or loved as an endearing amusement, squirrels have played important roles in trade, literature, and mythology. Thorington and Ferrell cover every aspect of this diverse animal family, from the first squirrels of 36 million years ago to the present day. With over one hundred photographs and an intuitive question-and-answer format, this authoritative and engaging guide sheds light on a common mammal that is anything but commonplace.

Tricky concepts are illustrated and explained with clarity and precision, as The Human Brain Book looks at how the brain sends messages to the rest of the body, how we think and feel, how we perform unconscious actions (for example breathing), explores the nature of genius, asks why we behave the way we do, explains how we see and hear things, and how and why we dream. Physical and psychological disorders affecting the brain and nervous system are clearly illustrated and summarized in easy-to-understand terms.

The "gift of sight " is not one to be taken for granted, as well as the care for it shouldn't be taken so lightly. Our eyesight is our most invaluable dependable tool we use every day, working for us every second we are awake. Can you imagine living without your vision? Scary, huh? In our modern world, with the ever-growing surge of new technologies and hand-held devices, we are spending far more times behind the screen on our computer, smartphone, and good old television damaging our eyes. The rise of visual impairments, causing the increased need for vision correction eyewears, is staggering, and it's only going to get worse with the common indoor sedentary jobs and lifestyles nowadays...no longer spending enough time outdoor in nature with natural sightings for our eyes as we used to. Thus, taking care of our eyes has never been more crucial than ever. Truth be told, eyewears help us see better, but they don't improve our eyesight - our natural-born eyesight - but instead become crutches we depend on.

Now what if you could toss your glasses or contact lenses aside, while improving and strengthening your natural eyesight? How? Within "Instant Eyesight": * How to develop sharper vision by doing effective "eye pushups." * How to see farther by using the "zooming in and out" technique like a camera. * How to enhance visual focus by strengthening connection with eye and brain. * How to train your eye muscles by doing different eye exercises to improve vision. * How to maintain everyday healthy eyes by picking up simple habits. * Plus, custom practical "how-to" strategies, techniques, applications and exercises to make your eyesight better. ...and much more. The aim is to stop relying on artificial eyesight thought eyewears, but gain back natural eyesight through your natural eyes. Condition your eyes to see naturally and clearly again, without glasses, contact lenses, or expensive laser eye surgery.
