Unser Leben verlangt permanente Hochstleistung, im Beruf und privat. Dafur brauchen wir viel Energie. Wird diese Energie in ausreichender Menge zugefuhrt, bleibt unser korperliches und mentales Gleichgewicht erhalten. Andernfalls holt sich der Organismus das, was er braucht, aus Reservespeichern, die eigentlich fur das Funktionieren der taglichen Energiekreislaufe gedacht sind. Sind diese Speicher leer, ist unsere Leistungsfahigkeit drastisch reduziert. Die Ausbeutung des Korpers wird oft erst sichtbar, wenn es moglicherweise schon zu spat ist, regulierend in den Energiehaushalt einzugreifen. Ergebnisse sind Krankheiten wie Burnout, korperlicher Verschlei?, physiologische Mangelerscheinungen oder Schlafstorungen. Wie aber konnen wir hohe Leistung vollbringen, ohne uns korperlich, mental oder emotional derart zu verausgaben, dass irreparable Defizite entstehen? Optimale Ernahrung, ausreichend Bewegung und mentale Fitness sind nach dem heutigen Wissensstand ausschlaggebend dafur, dass wir dauerhaft leistungsfahig bleiben. Doch was bedeutet das fur uns personlich? Nicht jeder Mensch funktioniert gleich. Diesem Umstand werden die praktischen Tipps und Empfehlungen dieses Buches gerecht: Mittels Checklisten und Selbsttests konnen wir uns selbst einschatzen und erfahren, auf welchem Stand wir sind. Mit den angebotenen Strategien und Ma?nahmen konnen wir unsere Fitness typgerecht optimieren. Schlagworte: Ernahrung ? Schlaf und Erholung ? Stress, Depression und Burnout ? Tagesplanung und Zeitmanagement ? Personlichkeitstypen ? Entspannungstechniken ? Werte, Visionen, Erwartungen ? Kompetenzen und Motivation ? Kommunikationstypen und -stile ? Sozialkompetenz ?

The Fitness of Information
Автор: Chaomei Chen
Год издания:
Theories and practices to assess critical information in a complex adaptive system Organized for readers to follow along easily, The Fitness of Information: Quantitative Assessments of Critical Evidence provides a structured outline of the key challenges in assessing crucial information in a complex adaptive system. Illustrating a variety of computational and explanatory challenges, the book demonstrates principles and practical implications of exploring and assessing the fitness of information in an extensible framework of adaptive landscapes. The book’s first three chapters introduce fundamental principles and practical examples in connection to the nature of aesthetics, mental models, and the subjectivity of evidence. In particular, the underlying question is how these issues can be addressed quantitatively, not only computationally but also explanatorily. The next chapter illustrates how one can reduce the level of complexity in understanding the structure and dynamics of scientific knowledge through the design and use of the CiteSpace system for visualizing and analyzing emerging trends in scientific literature. The following two chapters explain the concepts of structural variation and the fitness of information in a framework that builds on the idea of fitness landscape originally introduced to study population evolution. The final chapter presents a dual-map overlay technique and demonstrates how it supports a variety of analytic tasks for a new type of portfolio analysis. The Fitness of Information: Quantitative Assessments of Critical Evidence also features: In-depth case studies and examples that characterize far-reaching concepts, illustrate underlying principles, and demonstrate profound challenges and complexities at various levels of analytic reasoning Wide-ranging topics that underline the common theme, from the subjectivity of evidence in criminal trials to detecting early signs of critical transitions and mechanisms behind radical patents An extensible and unifying framework for visual analytics by transforming analytic reasoning tasks to the assessment of critical evidence The Fitness of Information: Quantitative Assessments of Critical Evidence is a suitable reference for researchers, analysts, and practitioners who are interested in analyzing evidence and making decisions with incomplete, uncertain, and even conflicting information. The book is also an excellent textbook for upper-undergraduate and graduate-level courses on visual analytics, information visualization, and business analytics and decision support systems.
