In this book David Martin argues, against Juergen Habermas, that religion and politics share a common mythic basis and that it is misleading to contrast the rationality of politics with the irrationality of religion. In contrast to Richard Dawkins (and New Atheists generally), Martin argues that the approach taken is brazenly unscientific and that the proclivity to violence is a shared feature of religion, nationalism and political ideology alike rooted in the demands of power and social solidarity.

This book comes at a time when managers are faced with still more new legislation, obligations and potential penalties. This is an essentially practical book: in a straightforward, no-jargon manner it explains what the law is and then what to do, providing expert advice on every aspect of employment practice including: recruitment; pay and incentives; maternity/paternity leave; personnel records; contracts; holidays; harassment; discipline and grievance procedures; performance management; Case studies of tribunal decisions add valuable extra guidance.

Focusing on autonomous robotic applications, this cutting-edge resource offers a practical treatment of short-range processing for reliable object detection at ground level. This book demonstrates probabilistic radar models and detection algorithms specifically for robotic vehicles on land and at sea, in coastal environments. It examines grid-based robotic mapping with radar, based on measurement likelihood estimation. Moreover, this book reformulates the feature-based robotic mapping and simultaneous localization and map building (SLAM) problems, so that detection, as well as spatial, uncertainty can be incorporated in a principled manner.
