Der BMW Foundation Global Table versammelt Entscheider aus Europa und den neuen Gestaltungsmächten zu einem sektoren- und generationsübergreifenden strategischen Dialog. So soll ein stärkeres Bewusstsein für die Bedeutung gemeinsamer Führungsverantwortung bei der Lösung globaler Herausforderungen geschaffen werden. Fernab herkömmlicher Differenzen findet hier zwischen Entscheidern aus Europa und den emerging economies Dialog auf Augenhöhe statt, bei dem die Beteiligten gemeinsame Interessen und Konvergenzräume ausloten, statt sich auf vorgefertigte Meinungen zu konzentrieren. "Looking at these new questions of order, one thing stands out straight away: they all transcend boundaries. They transcend national borders, and they transcend sectoral boundaries. The debate about the future of the international order is a debate in which foundations, particularly those operating internationally, play a major role. " Frank Walter Steinmeier, Minister for Foreign Affairs, Germany "In order to find sustainable solutions for today's complex issues, big corporations need to assume social and environmental responsibility and engage in cross-sector dialogues like the BMW Foundation Global Table.” Norbert Reithofer, Chairman of the Supervisory Board, BMW AG, Munich, Germany "This book should be read by anyone interested in a true and trustful dialogue between Europe and the emerging powers.” Norbert Röttgen, Chairman, Foreign Affairs Committee, Deutscher Bundestag, Germany

Witty, warm, and poignant, food blogger Sasha Martin's memoir about cooking her way to happiness and self-acceptance is a culinary journey like no other. Over the course of 195 weeks, food writer and blogger Sasha Martin set out to cook—and eat—a meal from every country in the world. As cooking unlocked the memories of her rough-and-tumble childhood and the loss and heartbreak that came with it, Martin became more determined than ever to find peace and elevate her life through the prism of food and world cultures. From the tiny, makeshift kitchen of her eccentric, creative mother, to a string of foster homes, to the house from which she launched her own cooking adventure, Martin's heartfelt, brutally honest memoir reveals the power of cooking to bond, to empower, and to heal—and celebrates the simple truth that happiness is created from within. "This beautifully written book is both poignant and uplifting. Not to mention delicious. It's an amazing family tale that reminds me of The Glass Castle, but with more food. And not just any food: We're talking cinnamon raisin pizza." —A.J. Jacobs, author of The Year of Living Biblically "Life From Scratch is an unconventional love story. This beautiful book begins with the quest of cooking a meal from every country—a noble feat of it's own!—but then turns it into something far beyond a kitchen adventure. Be prepared to be changed as you experience Sasha's journey for yourself." —Chris Guillebeau, author of The Happiness Pursuit

An integrated picture of India's global vision, its foreign policy, and the negotiating practices that link the two. In recent decades, India has grown as a global power, and has been able to pursue its own goals in its own way. Negotiating for India's Global Role gives an insightful and integrated analysis of India’s ability to manage its evolving role. Former ambassadors Teresita and Howard Schaffer shine a light on the country’s strategic vision, foreign policy, and the negotiating behavior that links the two. The four concepts woven throughout the book offer an exploration of India today: its exceptionalism; nonalignment and the drive for “strategic autonomy;” determination to maintain regional primacy; and, more recently, its surging economy. With a specific focus on India’s stellar negotiating practice, Negotiating for India's Global Role is a unique, comprehensive understanding of India as an emerging international power player, and the choices it will face between its classic view of strategic autonomy and the desirability of finding partners in the fast-evolving world.

Since not all graphic formats are of equal complexity, author John Miano does not simply choose a number of file formats and devote a chapter to each one. Instead, he offers additional coverage for the more complex image file formats like PNG (a new standard) and JPEG, while providing all information necessary to use the simpler file formats. While including the well-documented BMP, XBM, and GIF formats for completeness, along with some of their less-covered features, this book gives the most space to the more intricate PNG and JPEG, from basic concepts to creating and reading actual files. Among its highlights, this book covers: -- JPEG Huffman coding, including decoding sequential mode JPEG images and creating sequential JPEG files-- Optimizing the DCT-- Portable Network Graphics format (PNG), including decompressing PNG image data and creating PNG files-- Windows BMP, XBM, and GIF
