BOOK EXCERPT:
Driving Force unfolds the long and colorful history of magnets: how they guided (or misguided) Columbus; mesmerized eighteenth-century Paris but failed to fool Benjamin Franklin; lifted AC power over its rival, DC, despite all the animals, one human among them, executed along the way; led Einstein to the theory of relativity; helped defeat Hitler's U-boats; inspired writers from Plato to Dave Barry. In a way that will delight and instruct even the nonmathematical among us, James Livingston shows us how scientists today are creating magnets and superconductors that can levitate high-speed trains, produce images of our internal organs, steer high-energy particles in giant accelerators, and--last but not least--heat our morning coffee. From the "new" science of materials to everyday technology, Driving Force makes the workings of magnets a matter of practical wonder. The book will inform and entertain technical and nontechnical readers alike and will give them a clearer sense of the force behind so much of the working world.

BOOK EXCERPT:
As Molly Brighton returns from the west coast, to reclaim the city of Winnipeg as her home, her excitement and exhilaration are suddenly overcome as she struggles to come to terms with a brutal attack in the back lane. Still a teenager, and unwilling to interfere with her parents new outlook on life, she keeps the rape to herself, and suffers devastating pain and distress when she determines that she is now pregnant. Trying to decide how she should get rid of this unwanted child, she struggles between abortion and adoption. Hoping to keep her parents from finding out, to spare them the agony and humiliation that she is experiencing, Molly begins to weave a web of deceit, lying to her parents and to herself, as she attempts to handle this overwhelming situation on her own. At the most desperate time of her life, a long distance trucker becomes her knight in shining armor, who helps her to deal with the situation and to re-establish herself into his cabin at the lake. Keeping her past deeply hidden, Molly is relieved that everything should now unfold in a normal manner, but this too was not to be. There was more to come almost more than she could bear. When Charlies deceits were revealed, and she had no one to turn to, Molly called on her own deep well of inner strength her Driving Force Within to help sort out her options and make decisions that would affect her dramatically, for the rest of her life. Several times, the future looks good ahead, but the present keeps changing and not always for the better, as her web of deceit continues to grow. Empathize with Molly as she bares her soul and seeks guidance and strength to go on!

BOOK EXCERPT:
It started as an offer of a ride to the south of France and continues as a lifelong connection. On that summer day more than a decade ago, as Lorna got comfy behind the wheel of her little Citroen and Godfrey settled in the passenger seat beside her, neither knew how far they, almost strangers, would voyage together. Over the years, as practitioners and teachers of Nonviolent Communication, these two people from very different backgrounds have travelled to destinations and places across Europe, and, enjoyed hours of conversation that took them back in time to their childhoods, through memories and life experiences and deep into their hearts. What they could not have expected is to have arrived at a friendship filled with love and mutual respect, and lots of laughter, that has held them bound through differences of opinion, silences and the ups and downs of life. This book charts that journey.

BOOK EXCERPT:
What is the real source and driving force of development of the person, of terrestrial civilization in general, and of the communities making up it, which impart to everything that exists, the appropriate dynamics? This issue is still on the agenda, since no satisfactory answer has been found so far, although there have been enough hypotheses and theories to be made. Our attempt to solve the problem and the evidence is presented below. Note also that the data from Ch. 4.2. will help each reader to determine their own essence.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book investigates why Austrian economists fail to apply the spontaneous order framework to cooperative relationships – such as a dynamic and evolving public sector – that might complement a thriving market. In direct response to Israel Kirzner's The Driving Force of the Market, Nell challenges traditional Austrian economics by proposing "democratic process theory" as a parallel to market process theory, highlighting the possibilities for an economic organization that harnesses the power of transparent and effective democracy. Keeping in mind the central problems experienced in socialist and capitalist countries due to self-interested political and economic actors, The Driving Force of the Collective highlights the public sector advantages of allowing culture and institutions to evolve endogenously as a spontaneous public sector order.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Molecular Driving Forces, Second Edition E-book is an introductory statistical thermodynamics text that describes the principles and forces that drive chemical and biological processes. It demonstrates how the complex behaviors of molecules can result from a few simple physical processes, and how simple models provide surprisingly accurate insights into the workings of the molecular world. Widely adopted in its First Edition, Molecular Driving Forces is regarded by teachers and students as an accessible textbook that illuminates underlying principles and concepts. The Second Edition includes two brand new chapters: (1) "Microscopic Dynamics" introduces single molecule experiments; and (2) "Molecular Machines" considers how nanoscale machines and engines work. "The Logic of Thermodynamics" has been expanded to its own chapter and now covers heat, work, processes, pathways, and cycles. New practical applications, examples, and end-of-chapter questions are integrated throughout the revised and updated text, exploring topics in biology, environmental and energy science, and nanotechnology. Written in a clear and reader-friendly style, the book provides an excellent introduction to the subject for novices while remaining a valuable resource for experts.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book presents the results of Cleverbio, a project funded by the European Commission. The project examined the process of growth and development of clusters in the biotech industry, identifying and studying the main driving forces. The empirical work involved in-depth analysis of five clusters at different stages of development: Cambridge, the most important cluster in Europe; Heidelberg, one of the strongest in Germany; Aarhus in Denmark; Marseille in France; and Milano in Italy at an early stage of development. Other clusters were also analysed, such as Paris-Evry (France), Uppsala (Sweden), Biovalley (Switzerland), Bay Area and San Diego (US).The ultimate aim of Cleverbio has been to build a normative model that incorporates:• the preconditions for a cluster to grow (scientific base and/or industrial base, innovative financing, etc.);• the driving forces for cluster growth and development, i.e. the key factors of development (new company creation, IP rules, acceptance of biotech products, services and infrastructures, etc.);• best practices in cluster management (barrier removal, network creation, marketing, technology transfer, etc.).The book also identifies different forms of cluster creation. In some cases clusters were born and grew spontaneously as a consequence of the original co-presence of the key success factors (spontaneous clusters); in other cases they were born of the actions of public actors (industry restructuring and industry development policies). Finally, in a few cases, the process of clustering started as a result of a combination of different original conditions (hybrid clusters)./a
