    This book documents a paradigm shift, not only in the sciences but also in society. Everywhere in society systems are becoming networks. This implies not only a new understanding of social science but also of society and ourselves. The book describes the systems model based on Luhmann's theory of social systems and compares this to Latour's actor-network theory. It argues that present day society cannot be successfully modeled as a system and illustrates the transformation to a global network society by citing many examples from business, education, and healthcare. The authors argue that actor-network theory provides a more comprehensive account of these changes than systems theory. Based on actor-network theory, they propose a theory of the "digital transformation" that is ushering in the global network society.Although people in all areas talk about systems, adaptive behavior, evolution, complexity, and networks, few know where these concepts come from, and what they mean in the theories they belong to. This book is for all who are concerned with clarifying the often taken-for-granted assumptions and concepts that are implicitly or explicitly derived from systems theory and network theory. It offers an introduction to the work of Luhmann and Latour and a critical and constructive development of these important theories for the 21stcentury.

    Since its introduction by Kaplan and Norton in 1992, the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) has gradually been adopted as a fundamental system of management by many organisations. Because the BSC is mainly designed for large companies in developed countries, there is a question of its successful application in Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), especially those in developing countries. As there is little research in this area, this book is designed to fill that gap.In this book, Vietnamese SMEs are used as the central study cases for the application of BSC. Such a system enables SMEs to meet their management needs more quickly. Lessons learned in this study can be extended not only to other Vietnamese SMEs but also to firms in other countries with similar economic conditions. The book will also provide an improved understanding on factors influencing the adopting process.

    A fierce tremor shot through her body, causing her to shiver in anticipation as she stepped towards him. She knew what to expect, and made no protest as he took her arm and pulled her facedown across his lap. She felt his fingers on the smooth skin of her thighs, and shivered again as his hand slid up beneath her skirt. With a decisive gesture he flipped it back, exposing her bottom, and she bit her lip to contain a moan of excited fear. He caressed her buttocks, smoothing the silk seat of her panties over her soft round orbs. She squirmed. 'And so you might, you little minx, ' he whispered... Ruth's life is turned upside down when she meets a long lost friend, the chance encounter reawakening her latent sexual urges, stripping away her inhibitions. New sexual cravings dominate her life, exposing her to an enticing array of perversions. Ruth grows more wanton, her circle of friends rapidly expanding: agreeable, attentive Lewis; voluptuous, affectionate Helen; stony, cruel Karly, and the charismatic Konrad, all induce desires she cannot resist.

    A psychological fictional novel, which recreates Ludovico, a character who narrates in monologues his vision of the world despite having mental limitations due to a hereditary condition of mental damage. "Ludovico" is a novel with which William Castaño-Bedoya surprises us, reaffirming his talents as a recreator of human depth."Ludovico" demonstrates the great impact of frustration and its generalities, and how impotence and fate recreate the absurd and the uncertain. William manages to stage the impact of the arrival of beings with differences to the spectrum of normality that is commonly known. Ludovico would not have been possible if the author had not studied similar characters for many years before undertaking the work of his novel.At first, the reader may think that Ludovico is a character who intends to show us his limited and boring world, but as the story progresses, we discover a primary and elementary orb that does not lack its interpretations, its feelings, its compassion, and its passions. However, the reader faces the great and painful paradox of this novel, which Ludovico suffers and tells unconsciously. The drama of his life, restricted by his poor comprehension, his disobedient vision, and his clumsy ear, condemns him to a fractional understanding that he tries to fill with his fantasy. The story of the one who carries within him an unopened irony and whose simplicity leads us unexpectedly to the borders of laughter and crying.

    Midlife Abecedarian is a nostalgic collection that takes the reader on a journey through time. It provides a template for a life well-lived, even if you're only halfway through. Conjuring memories and a sense of satisfaction and comfort, Midlife Abecedarian is a map to things remembered and things best left forgotten. It does not reminisce on the one that got away, instead it shows the reader that the one who stayed is the one to build a life with. With a keen eye for making the ordinary extraordinary, Melissa Fite Johnson pulls the reader into her world, which may not be cool to the high schoolers she teaches, but it is a world you'll find yourself reflected back in. And it is a world you'll want to return to, again and again. **With deep, unapologetic attention to the revelations of midlife, Melissa Fite Johnson's MIDLIFE ABECEDARIAN reads as devotional to the miraculous present and as fearless, honest reckoning with the past. What does it mean to find peace, to be grounded in our own right at the midpoint of our lives, even as God is a glass / drying on the counter, even as the wind insists and every blade of grass bristles? Who are we as women if we do not choose to be mothers? Who are we as women if we choose to love ourselves and to be loved? MIDLIFE ABECEDARIAN accounts for what remains unresolved in our histories, but it also insists that we acknowledge the sacred and ordinary moments of daily life as they unfold. In this striking collection, Johnson acclaims the power of forging one's own path, in a world which tries relentlessly to define us. -Joan Kwon Glass, author of Night SwimThis collection revels in formal skill and inventiveness, filled with sonnets, villanelles, pantoums, and of course abecedarians as well as free verse and prose poems. These poems invite the reader to engage not only with the contemporary but also with American literary tradition, particularly represented by Whitman, who appears in several poems as a kind of ornery muse. In response to Whitman's cosmic perspective, Melissa Fite Johnson asks us to pay attention to the inescapable, ineffable texture of the now: "I am trying to write the present. / A quiet night, a photo of a moment // I wouldn't think to photograph. Isn't this / the origin of all poems? The blink, the breath."-Laura Passin, author of Borrowing Your BodyIn Midlife Abecedarian, Johnson "miracles" the ordinary, claiming "no one wants to hear that shit" and then "writing the opposite." She states, "I was beginning," as she is, and as we all are, every day, beginning anew. These poems insist on vulnerability, on NOT pretending, as they urge the reader to believe that "there are many paths to happiness." The speaker is inviting-part 90's teen, part woman, part teacher, part poet. This book is one of those paths. These poems are a balm, offering, "This is why / we're here-to live and to die, for someone to care." Isn't that the point of poetry? To find magic in the ordinary? She admits that loving her life might not be a popular opinion, but it is. We should all be so lucky. Let these poems inspire love, attention and overall, care. -Leah Umansky, author of Of Tyrant
