Artificial Intelligence in Precision Drug Design, Volume 1

In American Fashion is the first scholarly analysis of the Fashion Calendar, the unique scheduling service and trade publication for the American fashion and creative industries between 1941 and 2014.

Published by Ruth Finley for almost seven decades, the Calendarhad an extensive impact on the development of the American fashion industry in the 20th century. Unlike European fashion capitals, the American fashion industry relied on an independent small publisher to manage the schedule of an ever-growing industry. In American Fashion shows how this independent position influenced the democratic approach reflected in the industry in the United States. Finley's unique contribution to the development of the time-system and culture of American fashion made her a key player during the ascendency of American fashion design. 

Natalie Nudell unveils the Fashion Calendar as a historical archive, and also looks at its development into an open-source digital humanities project. Through historical analysis and the upcoming digitization of the Ruth Finley Collection, this study unpacks the history and impact of the publication and the women behind it.

The inside story of the race to develop Ozempic - the world's first truly effective and safe obesity drug - and its potentially revolutionary effects on public health, and our deeper culture and values.'A FASCINATING DEEP DIVE' Guardian'VERY ENGAGING' New Scientist'ENLIGHTENING' Publishers WeeklyA 'cure' for obesity has long evaded the pharmaceutical industry, until the development of Ozempic: a diabetes medication that targets the GLP-1 hormone and makes people feel fuller for longer.After decades of research, Ozempic's creator Novo Nordisk quickly became one of the most valuable companies in Europe. Now it struggles to keep up with its rivals in an explosive and lucrative market for weight-loss injections. The treatment is so effective that it's already disrupted industries from healthcare to fast food to fashion. Financial investment has skyrocketed and public demand continues to soar alongside celebrity endorsements. Beyond million-dollar profits, countless lives could now be saved from preventable diseases, but one question remains: are these drugs too good to be true?Through original reporting and rigorous research, Aimee Donnellan uncovers the complicated history of a medical breakthrough that is changing the world, while raising difficult questions about inequality, morality, our beauty ideals and the pursuit of thinness. Along the way, Donnellan profiles the female scientist whose contributions to the discovery of GLP-1 were overlooked and some of the earliest Ozempic users share powerful testimonies.The Hunger Game is a revelatory, gripping and urgent study of the unexpected consequences of finally getting what we've wanted for so long.'A lively tale of the stunning rise of Ozempic. This detailed, eye-opening account is bolstered by an insider look at commercial drug development' Irish Times'The definitive account of a singular global force - essential reading to help us understand what has been unleashed and what may be coming next' Andy Slavitt, author of Preventable'[A] Meticulously reported account ... and it is done very well - briskly and brightly ... Donnellan has performed a public service by taking down the first draft of history: by speaking to the main players and untangling the rivalries and disputes' The Times'A riveting read ... Donnellan captures the drama behind the science ... and explores the wider implications for society, health and business in this deeply researched book' John Collingridge, Guardian business editor-Previously published as Off the Scales.

Routledge Advances in Production and Operations Management

The manufacturing industry is facing massive changes driven by digitalization and sustainability. It is being redefined to meet the UN SDGs with the creation of new materials, processes and machinery. The drive for digitalization in order to use resources more effectively and efficiently adds to the complexity of this twin transition. This book presents results from 8 years of research with 15 industry partners, following the transition towards a digitalized industry 4.0 manufacturing and sustainable manufacturing paradigm.The selected chapters demonstrate how globally competitive manufacturing in high-cost countries such as Norway is enabled by AI-supported intelligent and flexible automation and the use of digital twins, as well as human-centred manufacturing. This book describes the interactions in innovative and sustainable organizations and changes in materials, products and processes, digital twins and AI-supported automated manufacturing processes. Supported by case studies and reflections from the manufacturing industry, this book evaluates how the combination of digitalization and sustainability enables competitiveness. With a focus on multi-material products and processes, robust and flexible automation and innovative and sustainable organizations, it provides a multi-disciplinary insight into the challenges and opportunities faced by manufacturing industries over time.This book serves as an ideal reference for researchers, scholars and policymakers in manufacturing, production and operations, with a particular interest in technology and sustainability.

This book simplifies the process regarding the application of usability to medical devices for new developers by providing a thought-out walkthrough of what is involved and how the expectations from the essential standards affect their work and why. Based on the authors' experiences, the information in the book provides other more seasoned experts with a wealth of insight and nuggets of new perspectives on addressing the usability of medical devices, particularly medical software.The discussion in the book is rooted in recent real-world experiences from both the manufacturer and assessment body sides-the authors provide a novel high-level "roadmap" to using usability engineering to guide development activities from initial conceptual design to research, development, and ultimately release of a medical device. They build toward this map throughout the book and ultimately present the full model. This roadmap is the result of the authors' experiences of taking a research project and launching both a medical device and a medical device business after obtaining all the necessary regulatory approvals.The book helps product developers to understand the usability requirements around their own work, and to also better understand their users and to present the expected usability information in a way that is readily understood by the auditors. Managers of such work will also greatly benefit from the discussion of the required deliverables and the goals of the usability activities. Finally, the authors ease the divide between manufacturers and healthcare professionals using medical devices. By simultaneously showing the requirements for the manufacturer's development process and also discussing the realities of work on the healthcare side, the authors facilitate collaboration.

Routledge Explorations in Economic History

Spain belongs to the group of European peripheral economies where the diffusion of the British Industrial Revolution failed during the 19th century, as Professor Jordi Nadal underlined half a century ago.This book presents the analysis of leading economic historians on the long-term economic development problems which made Spain a backward economy before industrialization later took hold. This book begins by revisiting the thesis of the failure of the First Industrial Revolution with updated data and methods and analysing the modernization of key manufacturing activities, with contributions from specialists in the history of these industries. By contrast, the next sections of this book explore the Second Industrial Revolution in Spain which appears to have been a remarkable success during the 1914-1973 period. The contributors in this section look to explain the reasons why the experience of industrialization was so different this time around. This book explores the reasons why Spain again lagged behind during the Third Technological Revolution, albeit with mixed experiences in different manufacturing industries. Finally, the last part of this book focuses on the reasons for the Spanish performance during the ICT era and the challenges for 21st century economic development in a country with a very uneven path of industrial growth.This book will be of great interest to readers in economic history, business history, economics, economic sociology, political science, industrial development, and Spanish history more broadly.

Great Lean Leaders

Industrial connectivity refers to the integration and networking of various industrial devices, machines, and systems to enable communication, data exchange, control, and automation, ultimately facilitating smart manufacturing, connected products, and digital thread initiatives. Lean principles, focused on waste reduction and efficiency, can be significantly enhanced and complemented by industrial connectivity technologies, leading to greater flexibility, speed, and productivity in manufacturing.Through interviews with the director of Environmental Health, Safety &amp; Sustainability (EHSS) for a large global company, this book relates the journey of learning and growth as shared through storytelling, reflecting, and releasing tested wisdom. By fostering a culture of continuous improvement, this Great Lean Leader unfolds the truths for how her organization got to sustainable success-and continues the relentless pursuit of value creation.As part of the Great Lean Leaders series, this book is designed to provide several reference points for reading and learning about the whats, whys, and hows of Lean Leadership. The chapters are realistic and represent stories shared with authenticity and transparency based on two interviews with the Lean Leader. The book has five sections: an overview of the interview, a referenced section of Lean Leadership strategies/ tactics and their benefits, a summary of observed Lean Leadership competencies, and links to the interviews and transcripts of the interviews. A final summary chapter is based on a group panel session and contains a detailed summary of intensive interviews, along with a set of detailed teaching lessons. A description of lean and lean tools is scattered throughout the book to add relevance and expand the reader's knowledge of lean methodologies.

'This book will change lives. It has changed mine.' Yasmin Alibhai-Brown How do you know if the medicine you're taking is right for you? Should you worry about side effects, and, if so, how much? And how can you advocate for a loved one when it comes to being prescribed medication? In How to Take Drugs, world-renowned pharmaceutical expert Dr Nick Barber answers these questions and more, explaining how medicines actually work on your body, how they're tested, and why they are often so much less effective than you might think. Dr. Barber's clear 'Avoid, Kiss, Marry, Divorce' framework offers a practical guide for evaluating how your medication is working, and offers solutions - whether you're taking medicines now, facing a new diagnosis, or supporting others with their healthcare. In a world full of contradictory medical information and concerns around over-prescription, it is an essential, eye-opening read. 'Likely to be the kind of book we should all have chained to our wrists, given the sheer amount of prescription medicines we are likely to consume in a lifetime.' - New Scientist 'A lively and empowering read, full of deftly explained science, good humour and humanity.' - Dr Lucy Pollock, author of The Book About Getting Older

Fashion Forecasting

Kamal Shair's book is a classic rags to riches story: the village boy, who with determination and education, achieves business success, wealth, more wealth, and then influence and power. What makes it unusual is that it emanates from the Arab world. Rarely among Arabs have individuals from thoroughly modest backgrounds, with no access to links, networks or connections become truly global commercial players. Shair was born in a small town in what was then Transjordan and dragged himself through school (his mother was illiterate), moved to college in Beirut, then sailed off to America (Michigan and Yale) and returned to the Middle East to create a multinational corporate empire engaged in trade, construction and manufacturing. Dar al Handasah - Arabic for House of Engineers - was founded in a small flat in Beirut and today, spans the globe with offices in 37 countries. In its early years, Dar al Handasah fought off competition from established western consultancies to win contracts for prestige engineering throughout the Middle East. Eventually, its activities extended further to Europe, the United States, Africa and Asia. By not following the usual pattern of patronage and favours, Kamal Shair applied a fresh kind of ethic in an environment with a loosely-structured business ethic. In the process, he lived through and witnessed at first hand and at close quarters some of the most dramatic events of the modern Arab world. This is quite an extraordinary tale and a very original prism through which to read the turbulent post-World War II history of the Middle East. At the same time we see the growth, despite all the odds, of one of the world's great engineering and business enterprises in a narrative of epic and inspirational proportions.
