Abstract

"This volume presents an attempt to construct a unified cognitive theory of science in relatively short compass. It confronts the strong program in sociology of science and the positions of various post positivist philosophers of science, developing significant alternatives to each in a readily comprehensible style. It draws loosely on recent developments in cognitive science, without burdening the argument with detailed results from that source. . . . The book is thus a provocative one. Perhaps that is a measure of its value: it will lead scholars and serious student from a number of science studies disciplines into continued and sharpened debate over fundamental questions."-Richard Burian, Isis "The writing is delightfully clear and accessible. On balance, few books advance our subject as well."-Paul Teller, Philosophy of Science

Abstract

Modern business practice, especially in the field of marketing, depends on the integration of creative and analytical thinking. One of the tools in this process is the use of management models to guide business decisions. However the inherent power of the models is only released when the people applying them have the ability to gather relevant information and interpret the relationships between the variables in the model. This book examines the role of some of the most popular management models. It helps the reader appreciate when they should be applied; it suggests which models may be relevant; and, importantly, identifies the type of information needed to implement them. Marketing and Management Models: A Guide to Understanding and Using Business Models reduces the complexity of management models through a logical and systematic approach. Models recognize the impact of globalization, technology, systems thinking, and the need for an integrated approach in strategic marketing. The reader will find new models dealing with consumer engagement, gamification, supply chain management, and cultural integration. The contents will be of particular assistance to students of business and marketing qualifications who have not yet had working experience; and junior market researchers and managers responsible for the preparation of strategic analyses prior to problem-solving and planning sessions.

Abstract

Many of the scientific breakthroughs of the twentieth century were first reported in the journal Nature. A Century of Nature brings together in one volume Nature's greatest hits-reproductions of seminal contributions that changed science and the world, accompanied by essays written by leading scientists (including four Nobel laureates) that provide historical context for each article, explain its insights in graceful, accessible prose, and celebrate the serendipity of discovery and the rewards of searching for needles in haystacks.
