This issue discusses ways of constructing, organizing, and managing arguments for evaluation. Not focued solely on the logic of evaluation or predictive validity, it discusses the various elements needed to construct evaluation arguments that are compelling and influential by virtue of the truth, beauty, and justice they express. Through exposition, original research, critical reflection, and application to case examples, the authors present tools, perspectives, and guides to help evaluators navigate the complex contexts of evaluation in the 21st century. This is the 142nd issue in the New Directions for Evaluation series from Jossey-Bass. It is an official publication of the American Evaluation Association.

The Fracture of Brittle Materials. Testing and Analysis
Supports the use and development of strong, fracture-resistant, and mechanically reliable ceramic materials The Fracture of Brittle Materials thoroughly sets forth the key scientific and engineering concepts underlying the selection of test procedures for fracture toughness, strength determination, and reliability predictions. With this book as their guide, readers can confidently test and analyze a broad range of brittle materials in order to make the best use of existing materials as well as to support the development of new materials. The authors explain the importance of microstructure in these determinations and describe the use of quantitative fractography in failure analysis. The Fracture of Brittle Materials is relevant to a broad range of ceramic materials (i.e., any inorganic non-metal), including semiconductors, cements and concrete, oxides, carbides, and nitrides. The book covers such topics as: Basic principles of fracture mechanics underlying brittle material tests and analysis procedures Theory and mechanisms of environmentally enhanced crack growth Fracture mechanics tests to determine a material's resistance to fast fracture Test and analysis methods to assess the strength of ceramics Methods to analyze the fracture process based on quantitative measurements of the fracture surface Effect of a material's microstructure Methods for predicting the lifetime of brittle components under stress Throughout the book, figures and illustrations help readers understand key concepts and methods. Replete with real-world examples, this text enables engineers and materials and ceramics scientists to select and implement the optimal testing methods for their particular research needs and then accurately analyze the results.
Managing Technology in Higher Education. Strategies for Transforming Teaching and Learning
Universities continue to struggle in their efforts to fully integrate information and communications technology within their activities. Based on examination of current practices in technology integration at 25 universities worldwide, this book argues for a radical approach to the management of technology in higher education. It offers recommendations for improving governance, strategic planning, integration of administrative and teaching services, management of digital resources, and training of technology managers and administrators. The book is written for anyone wanting to ensure technology is integrated as effectively and efficiently as possible.
Name Reactions for Carbocyclic Ring Formations
This book continues the well-established and authoritative series on name reactions in organic chemistry by focusing on name reactions on ring formation. Ring formating reactions have found widespread applicability in traditional organic synthesis, medicinal/pharmaceuticals, agricultural, fine chemicals, and of late, especially in polymer science.
Greener Fischer-Tropsch Processes for Fuels and Feedstocks
How can we use our carbon-based resources in the most responsible manner? How can we most efficiently transform natural gas, coal, or biomass into diesel, jet fuel or gasoline to drive our machines? The Big Questions today are energyrelated, and the Fischer-Tropsch process provides industrially tested solutions. This book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the Fischer-Tropsch process, from the basic science and engineering to commercial issues. It covers industrial, economic, environmental, and fundamental aspects, with a specific focus on 'green' concepts such as sustainability, process improvement, waste-reduction, and environmental care. The result is a practical reference for researchers, engineers, and financial analysts working in the energy sector, who are interested in carbon conversion, fuel processing or synthetic fuel technologies. It is also an ideal introductory book on the Fischer-Tropsch process for graduate courses in chemistry and chemical engineering.

Клиентоориентированный перевод
С тех пор, как Цицерон перевёл труды Платона и Демосфена, в сфере переводапроисходили постоянные и необратимые перемены. Некоторые из этих переменбыли едва уловимыми, другие кардинальными. Но всякий раз их векторнаправлялся в сторону удовлетворения нужд потребителей перевода – другимисловами, по направлению к клиентоориентированному переводу, пока он недостиг своего апогея в конце 20-го и в начале 21-го веков. Учебное пособие для абитуриентов, студентов вузов, аспирантов, переводчиков, а такжеширокого круга лиц, заинтересованных в том, чтобы потребитель перевода был удовлетворён тем, что ему предлагается.
Французская литературная классика на отечественном экране и русская на французском. Материалы научной конференции 9–10 декабря 2012 г.
Настоящий сборник составлен по материалам научной конференции «Французская литературная классика на отечественном экране и русская на французском», которая была организована кафедрой эстетики, истории и теории культуры ВГИК и состоялась в университете кинематографии в декабре 2010 года, объявленного годом России во Франции и Франции в России. Это третья проведённая ВГИК конференция, посвящённая вопросу экранизации классической литературы. Предыдущие – «Литература и зрелищные искусства. Слово и образ в художественной культуре» и «Мировая литературная классика на отечественном экране» – прошли в 2009 и 2010 годах. Участники форума – российские и французские филологи, киноведы, кинодраматурги, художники кино – исследовали вопросы перенесения классического литературного произведения одной страны на экран другой и связанные с этим проблемы взаимодействия культур, влияние ментальности, духовных и национальных традиций, особенностей исторического и политического моментов. Сборник представляет интерес для всех, кто занимается вопросами истории, теории кино и литературы.
