While the business aspect of an optometrist's practice may come second to patient care, optometrists today are faced with greater competition for new patients and income. This updated guide shows readers how to work smarter through effective practice management to offset reduced earnings due to fixed reimbursements of managed care and competition from 1-800 contact lens companies and chains selling discount frames and lenses. Drawing on over 40 years of experience, the author presents practical strategies for addressing the problems of day-to-day practice, and explains how to develop business and marketing plans without detracting from the optometrist's professional image. This edition features an increased focus on how to work with partners (including how to exit gracefully from a partnership), how to start a part-time practice, and how to be creative in practice. Authored by an expert in the field of practice management and optometry for the most effective, realistic advice and guidance.Concise, readable text synthesizes the author's 40-plus years of expertise in optometric practice.Necessary business and marketing skills are presented in a way that is compatible the optometrist's professional image.Tips and tools are provided on how to approach the client as both a consumer and a patient.Helpful information for students or optometrists who own or are planning to own their own practice.

 The past decade has seen a dramatic increase in the use of Bayesian methods in marketing due, in part, to computational and modelling breakthroughs, making its implementation ideal for many marketing problems. Bayesian analyses can now be conducted over a wide range of marketing problems, from new product introduction to pricing, and with a wide variety of different data sources. Bayesian Statistics and Marketing describes the basic advantages of the Bayesian approach, detailing the nature of the computational revolution. Examples contained include household and consumer panel data on product purchases and survey data, demand models based on micro-economic theory and random effect models used to pool data among respondents. The book also discusses the theory and practical use of MCMC methods. Written by the leading experts in the field, this unique book: Presents a unified treatment of Bayesian methods in marketing, with common notation and algorithms for estimating the models. Provides a self-contained introduction to Bayesian methods. Includes case studies drawn from the authors’ recent research to illustrate how Bayesian methods can be extended to apply to many important marketing problems. Is accompanied by an R package, bayesm , which implements all of the models and methods in the book and includes many datasets. In addition the book’s website hosts datasets and R code for the case studies. Bayesian Statistics and Marketing provides a platform for researchers in marketing to analyse their data with state-of-the-art methods and develop new models of consumer behaviour. It provides a unified reference for cutting-edge marketing researchers, as well as an invaluable guide to this growing area for both graduate students and professors, alike.

Les hommes divisent la surface de la terre en régions, en « pays » ou en territoires. Pour se repérer et s'orienter, chacun distingue des ensembles homogènes ou polarisés - des régions. La géographie rend ces opérations plus systématiques et plus rigoureuses. Les cadres territoriaux qu'elle distingue facilitent le classement des informations dont les administrateurs ont besoin et la conception des stratégies d'aménagement. Les moyens statistiques modernes et les images satellitaires précisent le dessin des divisions territoriales et permettent de suivre l'évolution de leur contenu.

L'espace dans lequel les hommes vivent n'est jamais, pour eux, un simple support : ils se sentent chez eux dans le « pays » où ils évoluent et se reconnaissent dans le territoire que domine leur groupe. Certains lieux revêtent une signification particulière : leurs paysages et leurs monuments symbolisent les identités collectives. Ils sont marqués par une culture, qu'ils contribuent à pérenniser et à transmettre.

Entre la division objective en régions et l'investissement affectif des lieux, des pays et des territoires, les rapports sont multiples. La montée des régionalismes et des autonomismes en apporte la preuve, comme le souci grandissant de préserver les paysages naturels et leurs formes d'utilisation traditionnelles.

Dans le monde d'hier, la vie de relation restait limitée, si bien que les conditions naturelles pesaient beaucoup sur l'articulation territoriale. Le réseau mondial des communications constitue aujourd'hui le ressort essentiel de l'organisation de l'espace. Face au danger d'uniformisation qu'il introduit, les gens réagissent en défendant leurs identités de toujours et en affirmant leur attachement aux lieux et aux territoires familiers. Ils découvrent aussi de nouvelles manières de s'insérer dans l'espace et de le vivre.

Abstract

Complex chemical mixtures impact our health every day. In the United States, and also in Central and Eastern Europe, there are a number of locations where complex chemical mixtures have been released to environmental media. Although exposure to mixtures is common, minimal information exists to quantify these exposures, or to determine their impact on human or ecological receptors. These proceedings present some of the most current research conducted to quantify complex mixtures in the environment and investigate their potential impact on human health. Many of the manuscripts reported in these proceedings represent the most up-to-date measurements of population exposures in Central and Eastern Europe. These studies are of value to health and environmental professionals around the world as they develop strategies for assessing exposures, remediating contaminated environments, and improving public health.
