The Deity

Peter Egli, the Swiss CEO of VedaLogic, envisions new applications for Artificial Intelligence that will solve humanity's most vexing problems. A Buddhist monastery and a doctorate in mathematics from Princeton shape his mind for a significant discovery of the connection between the quantum field, evolution and the human mind. It provides the secret key to chip technology for a super-computer destined to prove Quantum Field Theory, bring peace to Palestine and reveal God's divine plan. Once a genius with unlimited resources assembles an elect group of Jewish scientists in Israel, a discovery that will change the course of human history is the most probable outcome. Peter's private life strangely intertwines with recurring patterns of religious intolerance. Islamic terror that out of context seems like madness is revealed to be the Dharma, the invisible truth. While the slightest flutter of butterfly wings in the Amazon Delta can change the weather in Chicago, it takes senseless murder, bombs in Jerusalem and the tumbling of the Word Trade Center to change Peter Egli.  'Deity' is the story of a brilliant man who is not willing to accept second-hand knowledge from scripture as an explanation for our human existence. Ironically, the ultimate answer he finds to our questions is not the one he was looking for.

Highly predictable work is easy to support using traditional programming techniques, while unpredictable work cannot be accurately scripted in advance, and thus requires the involvement of the knowledge workers themselves. 
 The core element of Adaptive Case Management (ACM) is the support for real-time decision-making by knowledge workers.
 How Knowledge Workers Get Things Done describes the work of managers, decision makers, executives, doctors, lawyers, campaign managers, emergency responders, strategist, and many others who have to think for a living. These are people who figure out what needs to be done, at the same time that they do it, and there is a new approach to support this presents the logical starting point for understanding how to take advantage of ACM. 
 Keith Swenson points out, “We are seeing a fundamental shift in our workforce, and in the ways they need to be managed. Not only are companies engaging their customers in new ways, but managers are engaging workers in similarly transformed ways.”
 In award-winning case studies covering industries as a diverse as law enforcement, transportation, insurance, banking, state services, and healthcare, you will find instructive examples for how to transform your own organization.
 This important book follows the ground-breaking ACM publications, Taming the Unpredictable and Mastering the Unpredictable and provides important papers by thought-leaders in this field, together with practical examples, detailed ACM case studies and product reviews.
