Book Description
Applications of goal setting theory yield numerous beneficial performance outcomes (Locke & Latham, 1990). However, recent findings suggest that goal setting is not unconditionally positive (e.g., Schweitzer, Ordez, & Douma, 2004). Goal setting may cause self-regulation depletion, or a decreased ability to regulate oneself (Welsh & Ordez, 2014), but prior research has not addressed the role of individual differences in the relationship between goals and depletion. The purpose of the current study was to examine whether motivational traits, such as action/state orientation, result in some individuals being more or less depleted by goal setting. Action/state orientation, a trait-level response to goal-striving intentions and behaviors, was found to significantly moderate the relationship between goal structure and self-regulation depletion, such that individuals with a strong action orientation were less depleted than individuals with a state orientation in the high goal condition. These findings suggest that action/state orientation serves as a boundary condition in understanding the dark side of goal setting and its relationship to self-regulation depletion.

Book Description
One of the world's most esteemed and influential psychologists, Roy F. Baumeister, teams with New York Times science writer John Tierney to reveal the secrets of self-control and how to master it. "Deep and provocative analysis of people's battle with temptation and masterful insights into understanding willpower: why we have it, why we don't, and how to build it. A terrific read." —Ravi Dhar, Yale School of Management, Director of Center for Customer Insights Pioneering research psychologist Roy F. Baumeister collaborates with New York Times science writer John Tierney to revolutionize our understanding of the most coveted human virtue: self-control. Drawing on cutting-edge research and the wisdom of real-life experts, Willpower shares lessons on how to focus our strength, resist temptation, and redirect our lives. It shows readers how to be realistic when setting goals, monitor their progress, and how to keep faith when they falter. By blending practical wisdom with the best of recent research science, Willpower makes it clear that whatever we seek—from happiness to good health to financial security—we won’t reach our goals without first learning to harness self-control.

Book Description
Integrating significant advances in motivation science that have occurred over the last two decades, this volume thoroughly examines the ways in which motivation interacts with social, developmental, and emotional processes, as well as personality more generally. The Handbook comprises 39 clearly written chapters from leaders in the field. Cutting-edge theory and research is presented on core psychological motives, such as the need for esteem, security, consistency, and achievement; motivational systems that arise to address these fundamental needs; the process and consequences of goal pursuit, including the role of individual differences and contextual moderators; and implications for personal well-being and interpersonal and intergroup relations.

Book Description
"This volume provides an authoritative synthesis of a dynamic, influential area of psychological research. Leading investigators address all aspects of dual-process theories: their core assumptions, conceptual foundations, and applications to a wide range of social phenomena. In 38 chapters, the volume addresses the pivotal role of automatic and controlled processes in attitudes and evaluation; social perception; thinking and reasoning; self-regulation; and the interplay of affect, cognition, and motivation. Current empirical and methodological developments are described. Critiques of the duality approach are explored and important questions for future research identified"--

Book Description
In the forty years since the invention of center pivot irrigation, the Nigh Plains aquifer system has been depleted at an astonishing rate. Is the region now in danger of becoming the Great American Desert? In this volume eleven of the most knowledgeable scholars and water professionals in the Great Plains insightfully examine the dilemmas of groundwater use. They address both the technical problems and the politics of water management, providing a badly needed analysis of the implications of large-scale irrigation.

Book Description
This book cites the most recent scientific findings to provide a radically different approach to the formation and background of cancer, and also lays down the scientific foundations for a new, effective methodology for curing cancer. The author began his research in the early 1990s while investigating the role that deuterium (heavy hydrogen) plays in regulating biological and physiological processes. A number of leading universities and research institutes worldwide have joined the groundbreaking research. The book examines the most common conventional treatment methods in oncology and introduces the most effective combinations of treatments while providing detailed instructions on using deuterium depletion. Also discussed are deuterium depletion’s mechanism of action, the most important factors affecting effectiveness, and the main considerations when using the method. The method’s therapeutic potential is demonstrated through sixteen types of cancer, results from clinical trials, and specific case studies. One crucially important chapter describes how to use deuterium depletion to foster a healthy lifestyle. The last chapter contains recommendations for use, providing a helpful guide for health-conscious individuals or those struggling with the disease. This book strives to keep a balance between being easy to read or speaking in laymen's terms while providing a professional introduction of the research and clinical application to researchers and doctors. It discusses the treatment method based on deuterium depletion, which offers a tool for curing cancer and other chronic diseases, while also being more efficient and milder than any other oncotherapy up to now.

Book Description
This book reflects the work of wine marketing experts as expressed in their presentations to the annual three-week Wine Marketing Short Course at the University of California, Davis. The course was initially organized in collaboration with the international wine management curriculum sponsored by the International Organization for Vines and Wines (OIV). We have been involved in this course since its inception a decade ago. This book is intended for students in wine marketing and management, enology, and viticulture who seek to broaden their understanding of the wine sector. It is also intended for those already working in wine market ing and management who seek new ideas and insights. Finally, this book should be of general interest to others involved directly or indirectly in the grape and wine sector. Each chapter was written from the oral presentations of the authors and reflects the spontaneity and informality of the classroom environment. The writing may lack the "gravitas" of academic material, but it accurately presents the thinking and conclusions of those who make a living by mar keting wine. There is some duplication that serves to emphasize important points, and there are several case studies explaining real-life experiences in the industry. Legal requirements and commercial practices cited by authors may differ between regions and among institutions familiar to readers. However, the underlying principles guiding marketing strategies can be applied in different situations, for example, where supermarket wine sales may be restricted or direct sales prohibited.
