"… a comprehensive introduction to hydrologic processes from the entropy perspective."—Professor Upmanu Lall, Columbia University, New York, USA

"Dr. Singh does an excellent job of combining the Tsallis entropy theory with water engineering for water flow and transport of sediment in hydraulics. I greatly admire the approach—the details and the rigor presented in this book. I would definitely have this on my bookshelf."—Professor Venkat Lakshmi, University of South Carolina, Columbia, USA

"The book is organized well. … The topics covered are relevant, and more importantly, come with examples. … The main strength of the book is the compilation of Tsallis entropy applications in water resources engineering by one of the foremost researchers in the world on this topic. The style and presentation is within the reach of most graduate students, and should appeal to academics and practitioners."—Professor Rao S. Govindaraju, Purdue University, Lafayette, Indiana, USA

"… Dr. Singh’s book provides an easy-to-digest summary of the fundamentals of using entropy concepts. He illustrates the methods using a broad array of detailed applications. … a primary resource for anyone interested in learning and applying entropy concepts."—Professor Richard H. McCuen, University of Maryland, College Park, USA

"… a game changer for research and practice in water resources engineering. … The author has explicitly demonstrated the unifying nature of Tsallis entropy theory in developing solutions to water resources problems. This book will hail a new era for solving problems based [on] Tsallis entropy theory in water resources engineering."—Professor Umed Panu, Lakehead University, Ontario, Canada

'FitzRoy, Hulbert & O’Shannassy have updated their superb book, reflecting the latest scholarly insights and practical wisdom about strategy. This extremely readable and engaging book is loaded with examples from a wide array of industries and regions. Read this book if you want to become a more thoughtful and successful strategist.' - Donald C. Hambrick, The Pennsylvania State University, USA
"When the bird and the book disagree, believe the bird."
However, strategy is about action; it is about getting birds to fly, rather than simply observing them. Too often strategy texts are written by taxidermists rather than strategists. This book is not – use it.' - Pierre Berthon, Clifford F. Youse Chair of Information Design, Bentley University, USA
'Strategic Management captures the excitement of strategy-making as well as the complexities of getting the implementation right. The companies that they profile are highly-visible, multinational and play critical roles in their respective environments and the executives have stimulating jobs with tremendous impacts on society. The result is a heady mixture of necessary information and sanguine forecasts of the challenges ahead that will perpetuate students' obsession with a desire to partake in strategic management while satisfying the diverse stakeholders of the enterprise.' - Kathryn Rudie Harrigan, Professor, Columbia University, USA

The Challenge of Creating Value

Strategic Management

“The book is a solid attempt to formally characterize the properties of domains and the swarms of robots operating in them. The algorithms are often described with figures that show sample environments and how the operations progress over time. This provides a good understanding of how the algorithms work.” (M. Gini, Computing Reviews, January, 2019)​

"An unorthodox but critical update as to physics, and I highly recommend it. In spirit, this is very similar to another ‘deep think’ book by Paul Wesson titled ‘Five-Dimensional Physics: Classical and Quantum Consequences of Kaluza-Klein Cosmology,’ and the two books complement each other well, and in addition the very good section on the fine structure constant written by Krasnoholovets has a perspective that is important and which is not elucidated anywhere else in physics. The author's efforts in understanding the deterministic foundations of physics is also important and should be seriously reviewed by any theoretical physicist who wishes to understand the limitations of the standard model, and quark-lepton physics. The sections on inertons are unique as well and is getting my continual review and study."—Andrew Beckwith, PhD, Visiting Professor, Physics Department, Chongqing University, People's Republic of China“A GENUINE ‘TOUR DE FORCE’ . . . a serious worthwhile experience for anyone interested in a wide variety of areas of physics, provided they are willing to approach the task in a truly open-minded manner. After the mathematical preliminaries, which take a while to read and understand, the author launches into their applications in physics and that is why it may be described correctly as a ‘tour de force,’ due to the breadth of applications considered. . . . [It] offers a discussion of a truly wide range of such physical phenomena, ranging from electromagnetic phenomena to quarks and hadrons to nucleons and nuclear forces to gravitation and to cosmology. The breadth of topics discussed—and discussed with an obviously good background knowledge of each—should make anyone who reads this book admire the tremendous knowledge and effort put into its production by the author. He is to be congratulated. . . . [T]his is a book that should be read and studied by all serious physics researchers. Even if you initially disagree with some of the statements made, the contents will make you think and possibly try to view some areas from a different point of view. This can only be good for physics and for any researcher who should view any topic in a totally open-minded way—studying this book will certainly help anybody with the will to do that.”— Jeremy Dunning-Davies, Dept. of Maths. and Physics (retired), Hull University, England

'I cannot overemphasize the originality and brilliance of Ljubica Ilic's project. Seventeenth-century music continues to be viewed as an awkward transition between the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, and her insights shed light not only on music history but on European culture in general: the problems of artistic autonomy, of representation, of subjectivity, of the ethical responsibility of art, of theology. I was continually astonished by the insights she brings forward throughout the book.'  Susan McClary, University of California Los Angeles, USA
