Dimensions - The Next Evolution in Linked Scholarly Information (scroll down for search function) PLOS | Public Library Of Science Judgment and Decision Making, Journal Home Page Swiss Psychology Open: the official journal of the Swiss Psychological Society Open ebook: Modern World History As a faculty member who has experienced teaching Modern World History in four separate states, I can confidently state that Modern World History easily meets and fits the topical outline or framework required by any topical outline, GT requirement, or state requirement that I’ve come across. Beyond satisfying institutional mandates, this text is also broad in scope, and effectively covers key historical events (Imperialism, WWI, WWII, Cold War) and themes (decolonization, modern crises, neo-liberalism) expected from such a work. In addition, while the text provides helpful appendices there is no index or glossary to be found. Altogether, the content accuracy of the text is remarkably impressive. When assigning this text, an instructor can feel confident that they have assigned a textbook that is reflective of current historiographical insights and approaches and which includes modern historical insights that is at a level commensurate with that of texts offered by major publishers.

ESA Online Journals - Ecological Society of America Index of /ITToday Index of /ITToday Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - PsychOpen The European Open-Access Publishing Platform for Psychology While personality is often studied in psychology, it is PS' mission to unify the nascent field of a personality-centered science by bringing together work from different disciplines and perspectives even outside of psychology. The journal publishes theoretical, methodological, empirical, applied, and comment papers of short- to medium-length on the biological, psychological, and social origins, expressions, structures, dynamics, processes, mechanisms, functioning, development, and consequences of non-pathological and pathological personality (broadly conceived) as well as their definition, operationalization, assessment, and potential applications. Individual differences in humans, animals, virtual avatars, intelligent system, and robots are of interest to the journal. Papers reporting empirical data are expected to adhere to the transparency and open science guidelines of the journal.

Open ebook: History of International Relations The book is comprehensive in the extent that it does cover multiple regions across the world. It does have some glaring omissions, not the least are the matter of how these regional systems operated and how they were interpreted locally across time. A further curious omission is the impact of trade relations between regions, whether it was simply the exchange of foreign goods or ritualized tribute. For example in the section on the peoples of East Africa and their involvement with Indian Ocean maritime trade, there is no mention that they were involved in the trade of key trade goods desired by the Roman Empire's as well as the Indian kingdoms' markets. In the Middle East section, the part on the Umayyad and Abbasid caliphates further fails to the extremely important factors of the caliphates' economic system such as standardized gold dinar and silver dirham based currency system to facilitate trade, not to mention the continuity of some of the Sasanian administrative structures.
