The Internet and Workplace Transformation
The technologies of the Internet have exerted an enormous influence on the way we live and work. This volume in the "Advances in Management Information Systems" series presents cutting-edge research on the transformation of the workplace by the use of these information technologies. The book focuses first on the deleterious transformations (such as "cyberloafing"), then the promising ones (such as the emergence of virtual teams), and then the ways the troubling transformations can be redeemed for organizational benefit. The editors overlay IT topics with insights from organizational behavior, human resource management, organizational justice, and global culture.
Transformations
"In Transformations Tracy Cochran and Jeff Zaleski demonstrate that the experience of enlightenment is available to everyone regardless of creed or lack of it. Here are descriptions of transforming moments - awakenings to the sacred in the midst of life - from a young woman being mugged in Hell's Kitchen to Saul on the way to Damascus. Beginning with shifts of consciousness triggered by brushes with death, the authors explore the realms of love and of mystical union with the Godhead, literature ancient and modern and the creative impulse, shamanic states and sightings of the Virgin Mary, the frontiers of cyberspace, what psychology and modern physics can tell us about meditation, and the teachings of the great religious traditions on the most effective ways to expand our awareness."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

ICT-related Transformations in Latin-American Metropolises
Author: Ana Maria Fernández-Maldonado
language: en
Publisher: Techne Press
Release Date: 2004
"This book makes a contribution to the field of urban ICT studies in cities of the South, by exploring the ICT-related transformations in the Latin American urban scene." "Based on Gabriel Dupuy's notion of the 'urbanism of networks', the research analyses the recent transformations at three levels: the ICT infrastructure networks, the networks of production and consumption of ICTs in the local urban economy, and the diffusion of digital connectivity in everyday life. The results have been useful to spell out the main trends regarding urban functioning and the urban form. The book also presents the situation of digital connectivity in Buenos Aires and Lima, selected as case-studies because singular ICT-related processes are occurring in these two large metropolises."--BOOK JACKET.
