Watson and Crick discovered the human DNA. What made the difference was deciphering it. Like the human body, every organization has a DNA. What will make the difference is not seeing it, but sequencing it. It's the key to long-term success at innovation. Sequencing, written by business consultant Michael Metzger, explores what is required for a company to develop a culture that promotes innovation for the long haul. Harvard's Clayton Christensen reports that few companies have the capacity to innovate. The more success a company achieves, the harder it is for the company to innovate. And yet the reality is that companies innovate or die. Metzger outlines the steps necessary to sustain innovation - the culture, conscience, and C-level leadership required. It begins by having an accurate assessment of human nature and reality. Institutional leaders ignore this book at their peril.

This book traces the widely varying critical reception of Andreas Gryphius (1616-1664), the greatest German poet of the seventeenth century. Although his work was respected in his native Silesia both in his lifetime, and in the years after his death, his reputation was almost eclipsed during the later eighteenth century. However, new interpretations of him by Romantic authors, and an emerging ideological consensus about Germany's national literature, brought about Gryphius' critical rehabilitation and enhanced appreciation of the qualities of his work; being roughly contemporary with great English and French playwrights, his literary reputation became enmeshed in the nationalist and ideological rivalries of Europe. More recently, commentators have concentrated on the unique character of his poetic attitude.In this volume, the authors outline the trends of his reception in German-speaking countries and provide the background for his critical history; an epilogue deals with the question of whether he can be seen as the German equivalent of Shakespeare or Calderón. The book also presents, for the first time in English, extensive excerpts from Gryphius criticism, from contemporary commentators (including those close to the poet) to modern critics such as Walter Benjamin.

Decarbonization through optimized energy flows. In this book you will learn how a significant reduction in climate changing greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved through systemic optimization of our energy systems. The authors clearly demonstrate how energy-intensive processes can be optimized flexibly by using technology-neutral simulation methods to ensure that significantly fewer greenhouse gases are emitted. Such field-tested, data-based energy models described in this publication prove that "digital decarbonization" enables an economy that releases significantly fewer climate changing emissions while maintaining its production output. This is a promising message in view of ongoing climate change.
