Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book takes a practice approach to studying platform business models. Drawing from the growing academic literature as well as the practice world, this book intends to provide a framework for analysing platform business firms. Leveraging on the early literature on network economics (that was largely analytical) and the popular writing about new organizations, this book takes a strategic perspective. It answers the five big strategy questions about platform business firms: a. What are platform business models, and how are they different from others; b. How do platform business firms operate, and what value do they create To whom and how; c. What are those resources that platforms possess and leverage to create and sustain their competitive advantage over others; d. Why and how are they successful Why do they perform differently from others What metrics of performance should we use to study and analyse their performance; e. Is this business model sustainable What determines the longevity of such firms What are the regulatory and social challenges that these platform business firms face How do regulators and the larger society manage the disproportionate power distribution among such firms The book is strategic in nature and highlights the resources defining the strategies of successful platform business firms. In doing so, it provides a field guide for entrepreneurs and managers embarking on building a platform, by providing a portfolio of decisions to make. Though the frameworks could be generalized, the book focuses on platform businesses, rather than societal platforms. With a few extensions, it is possible that these frameworks could be easily applied to non-profit and or social enterprises as well.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book provides a concise and meticulous introduction to functional analysis. Since the topic draws heavily on the interplay between the algebraic structure of a linear space and the distance structure of a metric space, functional analysis is increasingly gaining the attention of not only mathematicians but also scientists and engineers. The purpose of the text is to present the basic aspects of functional analysis to this varied audience, keeping in mind the considerations of applicability. A novelty of this book is the inclusion of a result by Zabreiko, which states that every countably subadditive seminorm on a Banach space is continuous. Several major theorems in functional analysis are easy consequences of this result.The entire book can be used as a textbook for an introductory course in functional analysis without having to make any specific selection from the topics presented here. Basic notions in the setting of a metric space are defined interms of sequences. These include total boundedness, compactness, continuity and uniform continuity. Offering concise and to-the-point treatment of each topic in the framework of a normed space and of an inner product space, the book represents a valuable resource for advanced undergraduate students in mathematics, and will also appeal to graduate students and faculty in the natural sciences and engineering. The book is accessible to anyone who is familiar with linear algebra and real analysis.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book discusses critical policy issues that need to be addressed if India wishes to achieve the SDG 1 based elusive goal of ending poverty in the country. In its nine chapters, it takes the readers through trends and estimates of poverty in India, explains changes in the way it has been measured over time and the factors that lead to persistence of poverty, draws attention to the fact that hunger is both a cause and an effect of poverty and has gender and age dimensions too. The book revisits strategies that were successful in addressing poverty emanating from situations of conflict, presents a discussion on migration as a critical coping mechanism among poor, analyses the links between ill health and poverty as well as education and poverty to draw attention to the policy imperatives that need attention.India's report card on poverty remains dismal even though there is recognition of the importance of reducing or eliminating or endingit at both national and global levels. Despite rapid economic growth and improvement on a range of development indicators, an unacceptably high proportion of India's population continues to suffer poverty in multiple dimensions. SDG 1 or 'ending poverty in all its forms everywhere' cannot be achieved unless policies and poverty alleviation programmes understand and address chronic poverty and its dynamics. This requires that we estimate and understand the extent of poverty, the factors that lead to people getting stuck in it and the ways this can be addressed. It also requires understanding the dynamic nature of poverty or the fact that many of those who are poor are able to move out of poverty as well as the fact that many others who are not poor become impoverished. These are the issues that are comprehensively examined and addressed in this book.In addition to students, teachers and researchers in the areas of development, economic growth, equity and welfare, the book is also of great interest to policy makers, planners and non-government agencies who are concerned with understanding and addressing poverty-related issues in the developing countries.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book aims to provide an analysis of the EU's crisis decade-from the euro crisis to the populist right parties' resurgence and Brexit. The EU has encountered a series of crises since 2008 when the Greek sovereign debt crisis first broke out and brought forth the euro crisis. This was soon followed by the rise of anti-EU populist right parties, culminating in their unprecedented victory in the 2014 European Parliament Elections. The most unexpected shock, however, was the Brexit result of the UK's EU referendum in 2016. Providing a valuable external perspective on these events grounded in the realities of the Asian boom, this book will be of value to scholars, policymakers, and economists. 232 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -L'obiettivo del presente contributo è quello di identificare e definire il ruolo dell'ecocontrastografia nella patologia renale. Svariate sono le pubblicazioni in merito riguardanti il fegato mentre l'attenzione per le applicazioni nella patologia urinaria sta aumentando in modo cospicuo negli ultimi anni. La metodica è da subito apparsa affascinante in quanto spesso risolutiva ai fini della diagnosi rendendo superfluo il ricorso ad altre metodiche d'imaging sicuramente più impegnative per il paziente e più costose per la collettività. Infatti considerando l'affidabilità diagnostica della metodica nella valutazione dei traumi, della patologia flogistica, nella tipizzazione delle lesioni cistiche si comprende l'enorme impatto nella pratica clinica della metodica. Ciò ha spinto i cultori della materia ad un sempre maggiore utilizzo delle 'microbolle' anche in altri campi di applicazione come quella del trapianto renale, del reflusso vescico-ureterale sino ad arrivare ad un tentativo di tipizzazione delle lesioni solide renali o di stadiare le lesioni vescicali. Il messaggio innovativo è che anche l'ecografia ha il suo mezzo di contrasto endovena assumendo spesso pari dignità di altri esami contrastografici, come la TC e/o la RM, divenendo cosi problem-solving examination. L'esperienza maturata dagli autori in svariati anni si caratterizza per un percorso graduale, lento ma costante, verso sempre nuove applicazioni: prima quelle epatiche, poi quelle nell'ambito della patologia traumatica addominale, per raggiungere quelle dell'apparato urinario, gastro-enterico e genitale. Il volume è rivolto sia ai Radiologi (specialisti/specializzandi) che ai clinici, proprio per l'ampia diffusione territoriale ed interspecialistica dell'ecografia stessa. 56 pp. Italienisch.
