White Collar Zen: Using Zen Principles to Overcome Obstacles and Achieve Your Career Goals
The workplace is often a forum where aggressive competition, underappreciation, and self-doubt rule the day. Heine shows how the principles of Zen Buddhism can effectively dissipate stress and anxiety in the professional world. In dealing with conflict, Heine brings to light two seemingly contradictory Zen mindsets: the "Way of the Hermit," which requires one to step back and view the situation in contemplative objectivity, and the "Way of the Warrior," which requires quick and decisive action without hesitation.
This volume provides informed arguments, theory and practical examples based on research about what it looks like when educators, policy makers, and even students, try to rethink and change their practices by engaging in evidence-based conversations to challenge and inform their work. It allows the reader to experience these conversations. Each story reveals the depth of thinking that change requires, showing that change requires new learning and new learning is hard.

During the past decade, advances in technology have provided many sophisticated tools to assist the investigator with the location and identification of human remains. Aircraft-mounted infrared detectors, ground penetrating radar, and electromagnetic sensors are just a few that can be used to identify potential gravesites. Each of these tools has limitations. Some are cumbersome and suitable for use in small areas. Graphing interpretation requires a high level of expertise, which may not be available. However, when they are combined with a cadaver dog they can be used very effectively.
