With costs rising, traditional college student populations shrinking, and pundits predicting that huge numbers of colleges will close in the coming decades, small colleges cannot afford to pretend that business-as-usual can sustain them. This book offers five emerging models for how small colleges can survive and thrive in these challenging times.

Focuses on the status and work of full-time non-tenure-track faculty (NTTF) whose ranks are increasing as tenure track faculty (TTF) make up a smaller percentage of the professoriate. The authors ask, how can departments, institutions, and the profession do more to engage NTTF as full and active colleagues?

This book provides information and a critically required framework for sustainable automobile policy development in major Asian countries. It gives a wide ranging policy options based on empirical case studies and comparative policy and regulatory analysis.

This textbook is designed to enable students with little knowledge of mathematical analysis to engage with modern quantitative finance. The exposition of the topics is concise as chapters are intended to represent a preliminary contact with the mathematical concepts used in QF.

This second edition contains a substantial update with expanded material and reflects the significant growth of Lean Higher Education practices in colleges and universities worldwide.

The purpose of this book, originally published in 1987, was to contribute to the advance of artificial intelligence (AI) by clarifying and removing the major sources of philosophical confusion at the time, which continued to preoccupy scientists and thereby impede research.

This book, originally published in 1992, encapsulates ten years of research at the Open University¿s Human Cognition Research Laboratory. The research investigates the problems of novice programmers, and is strongly oriented toward the design and implementation of "programming environments" aimed at eliminating or easing novices¿ problems.

The most exciting and productive areas of academic inquiry are often where the interests of two disciplines meet. This is certainly the case for the subject of this book, first published in 1994, which explores the contribution that computer-based modelling and artificial intelligence can make to understanding fundamental issues in social science.

This comprehensive edited collection provides key contributions in the field, mapping out fundamental topics and analysing current trends through an international lens.

This volume challenges and extends previous approaches from systemic functional linguistics to understand the language of science and knowledge building from a linguistic perspective.
