Steve Gadd Gaddiments (9781705138656)

(Percussion). In this, the first drum book he has written, music legend Steve Gadd presents a series of rudimental passages inspired by his experience in drum corps and his love of the rudiments. Each of the etudes is based on a classic or contemporary rudiment, or on Steve's personal variations. He takes the phrases and then displaces them to begin on different subdivisions of the beat, thereby creating new, challenging patterns from the basic sticking. All of the solos are written in musical phrases that reinforce the player's understanding of the importance of phrasing as a key element of musicianship. The book has been painstakingly hand-engraved at Steve's request, to bring a comfortable and classic look to the pages. The layout of each page was also designed specifically by Gadd to create an easy yet musical flow to the reading. The book is also spiral-bound making sure it lays flat. These features are reflective of a man who has read thousands of charts in the stud...

AfterThoughts (9780557140619)

Poetry is utilizing words as raw materials but instead of creating a product that you can touch it is creating a picture, an idea or story in a meaningful pattern. Thus, you are creating a product that you can't physically touch but it touches you...emotionally, you can't see with your eyes but you can visualize in your mind, and poetry has no limits or barriers. It invokes thoughts and powerful feelings in both listeners and readers. Afterthoughts is an autobiography in which poetry is the chosen literary genre. Each poem is a depiction of love found, love lost, heartbreak, hardship, success, inspiration and much more that I have experienced in my lifetime. Product details Format Paperback | 109 pages ...

Jacques Derrida : democracia y soberanía (9788417835811)

El pensamiento político de Jacques Derrida (1930-2004) se articula a partir de la noción de aporta. Su crítica a la soberana, al estado nacidas, a la violencia fundadora de toda Ley, a la comunidad excluyente, a logo(falo) centrismo, a la representación... No deriva en un anarquismo ingenuo sino más bien en una exigencia ético-política. Se trata de, a pesar de vivir en los Estados que tenemos y de no haber superado la democracia representativa, permanecer abiertos a la heterogeneidad, a todo aquello que el Estado y su construcción jurídica excluyen. Si algo define la democracia, para Derrida, es el hecho de ser el único sistema abierto, el único capaz de permitir el Derecho a la austeridad. Es esta exigencia de justicia la que desborda todo Derecho y toda estructura estatal. La relación entre democracia y soberanía deviene así aporética, no tiene salida ni resolución, pero para todo estado constituido, para todo sistema político que pretende cerrarse sobre sí mismo y legitimarse a part...

David Hammons/Yves Klein Yves Klein/David Hammons (9780934324656)

This volume offers a compelling examination of the surprising conceptual and visual correspondences between the works of these two pivotal artists known for their innovative practices. Klein (1928-1962) was a major figure in postwar art who opened up new possibilities for material, conceptual and performative expression, often touching on the metaphysical. Hammons (born 1943) is a conceptual artist whose works in performance, installation, sculpture, printmaking and other media confront contemporary realities with an often hard-hitting wit. This publication aims not to draw out any notion of influence or direct correlation between these bodies of work, but rather to elucidate a resonance between two artists who both engage transformative processes to invest the humblest of everyday materials with deep aesthetic significance.

Risikomanagement in der Unternehmensfuhrung : Wertgenerierung durch chancen- und kompetenzorientiertes Management (3527503021)

Unternehmen nehmen oft Risiken auf sich, obwohl sie nicht wissen, wie diese Risiken zu managen und zu steuern sind. Dabei werden oft unnötige Risiken eingegangen, bei denen das Potenzial für Gewinne genauso hoch ist wie das für Verluste. So kann z.B. ein Unternehmen mit hohem Exportanteil und Fremdwährungssätzen auf die Preisschwankungen am Devisenmarkt mit der Gründung einer Devisenhandelsabteilung reagieren. Das Unternehmen kann es aber wegen mangelnder Kompetenz und Erfahrungen auch unterlassen, da die zusätzlichen Kosten, die dadurch entstehen, die Vorteile nicht rechtfertigen würden. Ein Unternehmen muss also wissen, wo sich seine Kernrisiken befinden und wie diese Risiken effizient zu managen und zu steuern sind, um so einen Wettbewerbsvorteil gegenüber anderen Unternehmen zu erhalten und höhere Renditen realisieren zu können. Die Autoren zeigen, wie beim strategischen Risikomanagement die Kernrisiken definiert, gemessen und in die Unternehmenssteuerung integriert werden können...
