King George's episodic sanity is almost as damaging as his madness. First Consul Napoleon is gathering his forces in France. The disease of democracy is spreading. The world is poised on the brink of a modern era, but the rowankind, long a source of free labor, have shaken off their bonds. Some have returned to Iaru to find freedom with the Fae; others are trying to find a place in the world, looking for fair treatment under the law. The course of the industrial revolution may change forever. Wild magic is on the rise. Creatures of legend are returning to the world: kelpies, pixies, trolls, hobs, and goblins. Ross and Corwen, she a summoner witch and he a wolf shapechanger, have freed the rowankind from bondage, but now they are caught in the midst of the conflict, while trying their best to avoid the attention of the Mysterium, the government organization which would see them hanged for their magic. When an urgent letter calls Corwen back to Yorkshire, he and Ross become embroiled in dark magic, family secrets, and industrial treachery. London beckons. There they discover a missing twin, an unexpected friend, and an old enemy--called Walsingham."--Page [4] of cover.Rowankind WitchesFictionMagicFictionWolvesFictionWitchesMagicWolves813.6Bedford Jacey1370219Copyright Paperback Collection (Library of Congress)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910154316203321Silverwolf3397826UNINA03465nam 22006735 450 991055184380332120250604133114.09783030937768(electronic bk.)978303093775110.1007/978-3-030-93776-8(MiAaPQ)EBC6913391(Au-PeEL)EBL6913391(CKB)21351674700041(DE-He213)978-3-030-93776-8(EXLCZ)992135167470004120220304d2022 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAttitudes to Psychological Stress Among Construction Professionals /by Alan Patching1st ed. 2022.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2022.1 online resource (305 pages)Includes index.Print version: Patching, Alan Attitudes to Psychological Stress among Construction Professionals Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2022 9783030937751 Chapter 1.

Active steps to assist an industry badly in need of change.This book investigates attitudes to the avoidance and management of stress by project managers within the professional construction industry.

The impacts and causes of stress of construction project managers are compared with those of other employees in the construction industry and with attitudes from across broader industry. The author concludes by establishing a leadership model for government and private organisations to effectively address a construction industry systemic problem head on.Psychology, IndustrialClinical health psychologyOrganizational sociologyOccupationsSociological aspectsWork and Organizational PsychologyHealth PsychologyOccupational Health PsychologySociology of Organizations and OccupationsTreballadors de la construccióthubEstrès laboralthubLlibres electrònicsthubPsychology, Industrial.Clinical health psychology.Organizational sociology.OccupationsSociological aspects.Work and Organizational Psychology.Health Psychology.Occupational Health Psychology.Sociology of Organizations and Occupations.Treballadors de la construccióEstrès laboral158.72624.0684Patching Alan1213755MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910551843803321Attitudes to Psychological Stress among Construction Professionals2802973UNINA03183nam 22006855 450 991088699600332120250807133328.03-031-36769-310.1007/978-3-031-36769-4(MiAaPQ)EBC31648823(Au-PeEL)EBL31648823(CKB)34842889500041(DE-He213)978-3-031-36769-4(EXLCZ)993484288950004120240905d2024 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBaboon Perspectives on Early Human Ancestors One Approach to Reconstructing Early Hominin Ecology and Behavior /by Glenn E.

Building on a long tradition and integrating recent developments, it discusses the ways that baboon behavior can enhance our understanding of our early ancestors. This approach augments interpretation of the archeological record and provides hypotheses for the gaps in the record and for the millions of years before the record began. Baboon behavior complements the widely used chimpanzee models, but also generates competing hypotheses. Among the many topics covered in the book are foraging and predator defense; multi-level societies and male-female relationships; social and ecological cognition; and communication and the roots of language.Human evolutionAnthropologyVertebratesAnimal cultureEcologyAnimal behaviorEvolutionary psychologyEvolutionary AnthropologyVertebrate ZoologyAnimal ScienceBehavioral EcologyEvolutionary PsychologyHuman evolution.Anthropology.Vertebrates.Animal culture.Ecology.Animal behavior.Evolutionary psychology.Evolutionary Anthropology.Vertebrate Zoology.Animal Science.Behavioral Ecology.Evolutionary Psychology.599.938King Glenn E1768526MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910886996003321Baboon Perspectives on Early Human Ancestors4229488UNINA
