Download or read book ようこそ written by Yasu-Hiko Tohsaku and published by McGraw-Hill Humanities Social. This book was released on 1999 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yookoso!, meaning welcome in Japanese, is the second volume of a two-volume series for beginning Japanese courses. Based on modern principles of second-language acquisition, it was the first beginning Japanese text to integrate the teaching of all four language skills (reading, writing, listening, speaking) and to be accompanied by a full complement of ancillary materials. Grammar is treated as a tool for developing the ability to communicate in Japanese, not as the focal point of the text. The illustration program (photographs, line drawings, realia) and the two-color, hard-cover format is unique in this field, providing an attractive context for language learning.

Book Synopsis Hokkaido Dairy Farm by : Paul Hansen
Download or read book Hokkaido Dairy Farm written by Paul Hansen and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2024-02-01 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hokkaido Dairy Farm offers a historical and ethnographic examination of the rapid industrialization of the dairy industry in Tokachi, Hokkaido. It begins with a history of dairy farming and consumption in Hokkaido from a macro perspective, mapping the transition from survival to subsistence and then from mixed family farms to monoculture and "mega" industrial operations. It then narrows the focus to examine concrete changes in a Tokachi-area dairying community that has undergone rapid sociocultural upheaval over the last three decades, with shifts in human relationships alongside changes in human and cow connections through new technologies. In the final chapters, the scope is further narrowed to a detailed history and ethnography of a single industrializing dairy farm and the morphing cast of individuals attached to it, centering on their idiosyncratic searches for economic, social, and even ontological security in what is popularly considered a peripheral region and industry. The culmination of over fifteen years of ethnographic, policy, and historical research, Hokkaido Dairy Farm argues that the dairy industry in Japan has always been entwined with notions of Otherness and security seeking, notably in terms of frontiers.
Download or read book THE ART OF CHANGE written by Erik Schön and published by Yokoso Press. This book was released on 2024-07-07 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is change? Why is it important? How do you change successfully? THE ART OF CHANGE provides timeless answers to these eternal questions. It is a modern reading of The Book of Changes, in Chinese I Ching, with focus on practical guidance for actions and decisions, consciously leaving out the fortune-telling parts. It is an interpretation of 64 short sections on how to successfully create and respond to change in a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world where the rate of changeis increasing daily. Through diverse situations and patterns, you will discover new perspectives on people and their behaviours, get actionable advice on handling and creating change strategically and effectively, and, thus, learn how to make a difference. You will also improve your understanding of China and Chinese ways of transforming, leading and strategising since The Book of Changes is deeply ingrained in Chinese thinking, decision-making and actions, e.g. as part of civil servant education for over 2,000 years and as a primary influence on Sun Tzu’s Art of War and Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching. "Thank you for sharing all these profound insights, which remain highly relevant, in a very digestible format!" Johan Ivari, officer and teacher “I have read things that I needed to read — right now, in my life. As usual, the I Ching never fails." Rod Leaverton, strategist "This is wonderful." Frank Chiaro, passionate explorer

Download or read book The Art of Strategy written by Sun Tzu and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-05 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is strategy? Why do you need it? How do you do it? The Art Of Strategy provides timeless answers to these eternal questions. It is a short introduction to strategy through the insights of three successful strategists: Sun Tzu, John Boyd and Simon Wardley. It is a modern reading of Sun Tzu's The Art of War -- the strategy classic written in China around 500 BC -- using the lenses of Boyd (OODA "loop" inventor) and Wardley (Wardley Map inventor). Each chapter gently transforms The Art of War into a modern business setting and includes material from Boyd and Wardley in separate sections to complement and clarify Sun Tzu's terse, poetic text. The idea is to serve strategy in13 short chapters requiring 5-10 minutes reading time each. Additionally, an extensive glossary is provided since many Chinese concepts are purposefully abstract and ambiguous.As a positive side effect, it may also provide an improved under-standing of the (geo)political gameplays by Boris Johnson, DonaldTrump, Vladimir Putin and Xí Jìnpíng who are all inspired by SunTzu. "The Art of Strategy is condensed knowledge that all managers, agile coaches and other leaders should have. This is three thinkers from very different contexts. But as Erik has put it, with similarities and differences topic by topic, a fourth voice appears. That voice belongs to the interaction between the three narrators and it gives as much value to me as a reader as the other three voices do." Staffan Nöteberg, author of Monotasking Erik Schön is an executive, strategist and keynote speaker who has successfully developed and deployed strategy for more than 20 years in small, medium and larger enterprises.
