Review Process Control Engineering / Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH:This book surveys methods, problems, and tools used in process control engineering. Its scope has been purposely made broad in order to permit an overall view of this subject. This book is intended both for interested nonspecialists who wish to become acquainted with the discipline of process control engineering and for process control engineers, who should find it helpful in identifying individual tasks and organizing them into a coherent whole. A central concern of this treatment is to arrive at a consistent and comprehensive way of thinking about process control engineering and to show how the several specialities can be organically fitted into this total view.

Review Distributed Decision Making: Cognitive Models for Cooperative Work / Wiley:Frequently (and often inappropriately) decision making in the work environment has been analyzed and modeled in terms of isolated decisions made by one person. In reality, decision making is a continuous, interpersonal process usually involving several ``decision makers'' aiming at dynamic and cooperative control of the state of affairs at work. Based on original contributions from researchers and research teams, this book provides an urgently needed cognitive approach to models of distributed decision making, exploring the basis for design of decision support systems in various complex, collective, modern work environments. It identifies the state of the art of modeling distributed decision making and the problems imposed by modern high-tech systems. A also formulates promising research avenues.

Review Illusions of Opportunity: Employee Expectations and Workplace Inequality (ILR Press Books) / Cornell University Press:Employees expect organizations to offer an equitable distribution of rewards in promotion, compensation, and job challenge to those who work hard. According to Sonia Ospina, the realities of the workplace confound that expectation, since organizational practices of labelling and ranking individuals create inequality. For this reason, Ospina suggests that an appreciation of how employees experience and resolve the contradiction between expectation and reality is prerequisite to understanding work attitudes in contemporary organizations.

Review Freshwater Fisheries Management (Fn107) / Fishing News Books Ltd:This book was written as a practical guide for anyone involved in freshwater fisheries management in temperate regions. Although it is primarily concerned with the British Isles, the principles set out apply in many other countries. The Severn-Trent Water Authority is one of the largest water authorities in Britain and is unusual in that its area includes important salmonid fisheries, coarse fisheries and eel fisheries. It engages in salmonid and coarse fish breeding and fish farming. Its staff are well qualified to advise on fisheries management and they here discuss the most common problems and point to sources for further information. Divided into three main sections, the whole book comprises a practical guide for the active fisheries manager and gives background material for the administrator, while its style will appeal equally to the layman and to the serious student of freshwater biology.
