Chapter test questions help students assess their understanding of key concepts. Sample problems, end-of-chapter projects, and a variety of additional exercises reinforce the material and allow students to practice the techniques described. The content of the book goes beyond the material normally presented in an engineering graphics text associated with CAD software to include exercises requiring students to design simple mechanisms. This book includes the following features:
Step-by-step format throughout the text allows students to work directly from the text to the screen and provides an excellent reference during and after the course.
Exercises, sample problems and projects appear in each chapter, providing examples of software capabilities and giving students an opportunity to apply their own knowledge to realistic design situations.
Includes examples of how to create an animated assembly, apply dimension to a drawing, calculate shear and bending values, and more!
ANSI and ISO standards are discussed when appropriate, introducing students to both so they learn appropriate techniques and national standards.
This book seeks to address many of the current shortcomings in the field of white-collar criminology by proposing a new universal definition for the academic subject, whilst demonstrating how this corresponds to legislative offences in practice. It addresses the relative lack of knowledge about the perpetrators of white-collar crime by presenting new analysis of data from a global survey of over 5,400 corporations on the individual characteristics of offenders.
It also reviews existing criminological theories and applies them to white-collar crime to develp a new conceptual framework that seeks to account for this form of offending behaviour. Lastly, it explains how established offender profiling techniques can be adapted and utilised in conjunction with the new data presented and concepts put forward, to produce white-collar criminal profiles that can be used proactively by organisations in the development of cutting-edge financial crime prevention and detection techniques.

Описание: The Benedictine monk Pierre-Francois de Bethune has dedicated his life to following the lead of the great pioneers of interreligious dialogue at the level of spiritual experience. Having practiced zazen and "Way of tea" assiduously for decades, he now leads readers along the path of spiritual hospitality, describing how welcoming other religions transformed him and brought him to rediscover the Gospel. In this volume, he evokes the spiritual journeys of some of the pioneers of interreligious dialogue, among them, Thomas Merton, Henri Le Saux, Raimon Panikkar, and Christian de Cherge and the monks of Tibhirine. In doing so, he proposes that their commitment to dialogue, hospitality, and welcoming the other corresponds to what the Gospel requires of the followers of Jesus. "

Описание: Born to fanatical religious zealots, deeply wounded by an unloving mother and a weak father whom he hated, Norman Bethune struggled throughout his life to overcome deep emotional scars. Sexually inhibited, given to outbursts of near psychopathic rage, this wounded doctor healed himself through healing others. ... In the mid-1930s, Bethune emerged as a renowned surgeon fighting the twin plagues of disease and fascism. When Franco launched his offensive, Bethune traveled quickly to Madrid, organized a mobile transfusion service and, often under fire, brought blood to the wounded at the front. ... David Lethbridge presents the complex of Bethune's unique activities and personality as they intersected with history: His engagement with medical, political, and military civil war players, and the Communist party; his cadaver blood transfusion work with the Nobel Prize-winning geneticist, Hermann Muller; the profound effect that the Malaga atrocity had on him, and the role it played in his attempt to build "children's cities" outside war zones; his meeting with Graham Spry - a high-ranking functionary in the Canadian social democratic party, the CCF; the unraveling of Bethune's romantic relationship with the Swedish journalist Kasja Rothman; the implications of his friendship with Henning Sorensen, a possibly secret member of the Communist Party of Canada, and the circumstances of the conspiracy that led to Bethune's ejection from Spain. ... The book concludes with Bethune's political tour throughout North America raising funds and public awareness on behalf of the Spanish Republic.
