DESIGNOLOGY. A Designer is a Scientist who creates an Emotional Connection between a Brand and its Audiences

Design is an essential element of business. It maximises the work of internal and external experts. It brings focus to foresight, ideas to innovation and expression to marketing. In short, it helps companies grow and prosper. Yet many businesses ignore the potential of design. They fail to make full use of the competences and skills designers have to offer. One reason for this is that there is no established academic science of design. This book takes steps to fi ll that gap by offering its own design science - a science called Designology. Designology should embrace a wide range of disciplines, from neuroscience, psychology and sociology to anthropology, ethnology and behavioural science. This book, however, decides to focus on just two of these disciplines - neuroscience and psychology - to demonstrate that design is a science rather than an art, and that designers equipped with the

Aeneas Tacticus - Works

Aeneas was perhaps a general, and certainly author of several didactic military works of which the sole survivor is that on defence against siege. From it we can deduce that he was a Peloponnesian of the fourth century BCE who served in the Aegean and in Asia Minor and composed the work from direct knowledge and from oral and some literary tradition, possibly in 3576 BCE. It is devoted entirely to defence of fortified places and deals specially with use of defending troops; defensive positions; morale; resistance to attacks and to actual assault; guards; obviation of treachery and revolution; and other subjects. Asclepiodotus, philosopher and pupil of the Stoic Posidonius, wrote a rather dry but ordered work on Tactics as if a subject of the lecture room, based not on personal experience but on earlier manuals. His main subjects were the branches of a military force; infantry; cavalry; chariots; elephants; arms; maneuvers; military evolutions; marching formation. The work ends with words of command. Onasander (Onasandros), a Platonic philosopher, dedicated his work "The General" to the Roman Veranius, who was a consul in 49 CE. The work deals in plain style with the sort of morals and social and military qualities and attitudes expected of a virtuous and militarily successful general. It is also concerned with such matters as his choice of staff; attitude to war; religious duties; military formations; conduct in allied and hostile lands; difficult terrains; camps; drill; spies; guards; deserters; battle formations and maneuvers; and other matters, ending with conduct after victory.

more REAL Brown JonPaperback / softback

Jesus promises 'life and life to the full'. So why do so many people walk away from faith - and not just teenagers but people who have been in church for years? The full life offered is one of genuine relationship with God and others, but has our tendency to fight vulnerability, mask weakness and hide disappointment cost us the real thing? Have we tried to keep it together, keep the faith, until we simply can't do it anymore? Following Jesus should not require fronts: when we fully grasp the love of God towards us, in all our mess and sin and doubt, we experience the freedom that vulnerability, honesty, and sacrifice brings. That's real life; life to the full. More Real explores how we can build lives on truth, and cultivate a real faith that lasts through the storms of life.

Essential Ananda K. Coomaraswamy Coomaraswamy Ananda K.Paperback

Ananda K Coomaraswamy grew up in late Victorian England and was there in the splendid pre-war days of the arts and crafts idealists, Blakean dreamers and flourishing literary movements. As a young man, Coomaraswamy was a pioneer and authority in the field of Indian art, a spokesman for Indian nationalism and a careful, but popular writer on Hinduism and Buddhism. During the First World War, he went to America and, as curator of Asiatic Art at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, built the first large collection of Indian art in America. In his later writings, which are represented in this collection, he turned his attention to metaphysics, tradition and sacred art. However, unlike many who write about traditional cultures, he was a radical and controversial critic of modern 'civilisation'. This volume, edited by his son, provides the reader with a comprehensive introduction to the work of this important 20th century philosopher and art historian. These selections of Coomaraswamy's vast body of writing offer the new reader a clear and definitive point of entry into the mind of this great and early spokesman for the Perennial Philosophy.

Hadley Circulation - Present, Past and Future Diaz Henry F.Paperback

Climate dynamicists generally characterize the Hadley circulation in terms of some derived meteorological parameters, such as the mass stream function (the nondivergent part of the flow) or the velocity potential (the divergent circulation), both of which are based on measurements of the three-dimensional wind field. Yet, we know very little about how such in- ces have varied in the past--beyond the most recent decades. Paleocli- tologists are unable to reconstruct such indices, so long-term reconstructions of the Hadley circulation must be based on indirect characteristics that can be in some way plausibly linked to the dynamics of the system. Rec- structed quantities, such as precipitation amount, position and strength of the trade winds, and the location of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), have all been derived from different types of paleoclimatic (proxy) data, and could
