Описание: Dit boek wordt een methodische benadering geboden voor het gestandaardiseerd inrichten en aansturen van modern functioneel beheer. Functioneel beheer kan een mooie brug vormen tussen de business en IT-beheer. Het schijnbaar complexe vakgebied functioneel beheer krijgt nog maar relatief kort de aandacht die het verdient. Met de komst van ITIL is de laatste twee decennia de aandacht vooral gericht geweest op IT-beheer, dat dankzij die aandacht structureel is verbeterd. De tijd is nu rijp om op vergelijkbare wijze structureel te werken aan de verbetering van de brugfunctie die functioneel beheer moet en kan invullen. Om een eind te maken aan de enorme variatie in de praktijk van functioneel beheer is een methodische aanpak noodzakelijk. De FSM-methode (Functional Service Management) is ontwikkeld om invulling te geven aan die behoefte. Door de methodische structuur van FSM wordt een stapsgewijze verbeteraanpak mogelijk. De concrete verbeterdoelen in een FSM-invoering worden steeds bepaald door de lokale organisatie. Dit tekent het methodische karakter van FSM: een brede toepasbaarheid van beschikbare best practices, zoals gedocumenteerd in bijvoorbeeld BiSL, in een gestructureerde aanpak. Dat maakt de FSM-methode praktisch toepasbaar en begrijpelijk. De opzet van de FSM-methode is geheel analoog aan de ISM-methode voor IT-beheer. De methodes worden door tientallen leveranciers van producten en diensten gebruikt bij het ondersteunen van betere dienstverlening in de praktijk van de informatievoorziening. Jan van Bon is een internationaal erkende deskundige auteur, hoofdredacteur en spreker. Zijn brede kennis en analytisch vermogen gebruikt hij, top-down, om kritisch de erkende frameworks en standaarden te beschouwen en daaruit kennis te selecteren en toepasbaar te maken. Wim Hoving heeft ruim 20 jaar ervaring in het invoeren en toepassen van procesmatig werken. Kritisch en autodidactisch heeft hij, bottom-up, constant gewerkt aan het verbeteren van de dienstverlening door praktisch te innoveren en samenhang aan te brengen tussen alle hulpmiddelen.In het boek bieden de auteurs de lezer een degelijke basis voor de aanpak van functioneel beheer. Daarbij kunnen lokaal aanwezige middelen, tools, en werkwijzen in die aanpak een plaats krijgen, zonder dat een ingrijpende reorganisatie noodzakelijk is. Door vanuit een krachtige structuur een praktische toepassing te vinden voor de eigen problematiek, kan een organisatie rendement halen uit de methodische aanpak die met FSM is vastgelegd.

Описание: Northern China in 1900. The nation is in turmoil, the failing Manchu dynasty struggles to survive in the face of poverty and social disintegration coupled with foreign encroachments, the ancient traditions of China seem powerless against the onslaught of the modern world. From the countryside comes a response: the brutal, quasi-religious movement of Chinese peasants known as Boxers, who seek to rid the country of foreign influence by any means necessary. American missionaries James and Dorothy Cooper have been in China for five years, maintaining their small school and clinic and laboring to spread the gospel, but the Boxers' violent fury cuts short their mission, and their son Wayland is left barely clinging to life. Rescued by a kindly Chinese passerby, Wayland begins his recovery, but tensions remain high in the still-simmering city of Tianjin, and Wayland's new Chinese family has dark secrets of their own. He soon finds himself in the middle of a deadly dispute between two martial arts masters, and his own fate will hinge on the outcome. Wayland must navigate between two worlds, and arms himself with the powerful secrets of Chinese martial arts.

Описание: The year is 1900, and Western empires are locked in entanglements across the globe. The British are losing a bitter war against the Boers while the German Kaiser is busy building a vast new navy. The United States is struggling to put down an insurgency in the South Pacific while the upstart imperialist Japan begins to make clear to neighbouring Russia its territorial ambition.
In China, a perennial pawn in the Great Game, a mysterious group of superstitious peasants is launching attacks on the Western powers they fear are corrupting their country. These ordinary Chinese - called Boxers by the West because of their martial arts showmanship - rise up seemingly out of nowhere. Foreshadowing the insurgencies of our recent past, they lack a centralized leadership and instead tap into latent nationalism and deep economic frustration to build their army.
Many scholars brush off the Boxer Rebellion as an ill-conceived and easily defeated revolt, but in The Boxer Rebellion and the Great Game in China, the military historian David J. Silbey shows just how close the Boxers came to beating back the combined might of the imperial powers. Drawing on the diaries and letters of allied soldiers and diplomats, he paints a vivid portrait of the war.
Although their cause ended just as quickly as it began, the Boxers would inspire Chinese nationalists-including a young Mao Zedong-for decades to come.

Описание: A gripping, life-affirming YA novel about friendship, radicalisation and finding where you belong.
Humans are pattern-matching creatures, and astrology is the universe's grandest pattern-matching game. In this refreshing work of history and analysis, data scientist Alexander Boxer examines classical texts on astrology to expose its underlying scientific and mathematical framework. Astrology, he argues, was the ancient world's most ambitious applied mathematics problem, a monumental data-analysis enterprise sustained by some of history's most brilliant minds, from Ptolemy to al-Kindi to Kepler.
Thousands of years ago, astrologers became the first to stumble upon the powerful storytelling possibilities inherent in numerical data. To correlate the configurations of the cosmos with our day-to-day lives, astrologers relied upon a "scheme of heaven," or horoscope, showing the precise configuration of the planets at a particular instant in time as viewed from a particular place on Earth. Although recognized as pseudoscience today, horoscopes were once considered a cutting-edge scientific tool. Boxer teaches us how to read these esoteric charts--and appreciate the complex astronomical calculations needed to generate them--by diagramming how the heavens appeared at important moments in astrology's history, from the assassination of Julius Caesar as viewed from Rome to the Apollo 11 lunar landing as seen from the surface of the Moon. He then puts these horoscopes to the test using modern data sets and statistical science, arguing that today's data scientists do work similar to astrologers of yore. By looking back at the algorithms of ancient astrology, he suggests, we can better recognize the patterns that are timeless characteristics of our own pattern-matching tendencies.
At once critical, rigorous, and far ranging, A Scheme of Heaven recontextualizes astrology as a vast, technological project--spanning continents and centuries--that foreshadowed our data-driven world today.
