This book delves into antibiotic resistance, offering insights into its emergence, mechanisms, and impact on global health. The book also scrutinizes over-prescription, agricultural use, and the scarcity of new drug development, while spotlighting the role of globalization in its propagation. It moves beyond conventional approaches, examining alternative strategies like phage therapy, immunotherapy, and nanotechnology. Highlighting precision diagnostics and the importance of policy implications, it navigates through public health strategies, surveillance, and international collaborations. Finally, it glimpses into the future, delineating the challenges, opportunities, and the urgency of action required to steer away from a post-antibiotic era. This book serves as an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and scientists in the fields of medicine, pharmacy, microbiology, and public health.

Object-Oriented and Mixed Programming Paradigms New Directions in Computer Graphics


Free Download Object-Oriented and Mixed Programming Paradigms: New Directions in Computer Graphics By Dr. Peter Wisskirchen (auth.), Dr. Peter Wisskirchen (eds.)
1996 | 196 Pages | ISBN: 364264676X | PDF | 5 MB
The evolving functionality and growing complexity of graphics algorithms and systems make it more difficult for the application programmer to exploit them fully. Conventional programming methods are no longer suited and new programming paradigms and system architectures are required. This book presents results from the Fourth Eurographics Workshop on Object-Oriented Graphics. Part 1, Object-Oriented Design and Systems, shows that object-oriented graphics now uses complex algorithms and systems, such as elaborate renderers, animation, and multimedia systems, that are realized as object-oriented libraries. Part 2, Programming Paradigms for Graphics, reflects upon and analyzes problems arising from relying completely on object orientation, and proposes mixed programming paradigms that may enrich object-oriented languages.

Transforming Leader Paradigms


Free Download Transforming Leader Paradigms by James E. Luckman, Olga Flory
English | June 26, 2019 | ISBN: 0367139308 | 212 pages | MOBI | 5.10 Mb
An easy read with clear examples and engaging stories, this book is a treat for leaders who are interested in totally transforming the way they work. Luckman and Flory help leaders and organizations shift from a solutions mindset to a problem-solving culture that results in flow and growth where everyone in the organization can become a winner.Anand V. Tanikella, Vice President R&D, Abrasives Worldwide, Saint-GobainLuckman and Flory explain how to create a platform for change and a culture of meaningful continuous improvement through what they call "Problem Solving for Complexity." This approach is about engaging everybody in the organization to improve every aspect of how work gets done. Read this book if you want to be a real change leader, not just the person who goes around talking about the need for change.Robert Kessiakoff, Coach/Consultant, Partner LTGe, Sweden[This book] describes how the leader, through changing his or her own behaviors and practices, can transform an organization that is slow to adapt into one that solves problems organically. The book is an important read for leaders and managers at all levels.Peter Ward, Senior Associate Dean for Academics, Richard M. Ross Chair in Management, Professor of Management Sciences, Director, Center for Operational Excellence, Ohio State UniversityOrganizational transformation is difficult, and despite expensive continuous improvement programs, most change efforts fail. This pattern, James E. Luckman and Olga Flory argue, is due to the fact that most change efforts start with senior leaders assigning an external or internal consulting group to attempt to drive change from the top down. Leaders today can no longer roll out solutions in the hopes of seeing better results. What they can do is play an active role in helping to transform their organization from "blanket solutions" thinking to learning how to solve complex business problems in a rapidly changing world.
