This allows for a set of shared assumptions, which increase the sense of teamwork, and establishes the pattern of collective behaviours and behavioural expectations within an organisation (Ravasi and Schultz, 2006).

This video highlights the development of theory of interaction of electricity with magnetism. A number of scientists were involved in understanding, interpreting and validating electromagnetism with simple experiments involving current and magnetic elements. During September 1820, Ampere investigated magnetic effects of repulsion/attraction between like/unlike poles. He developed theory of electro-dynamics related to magnetism as interaction of current elements. Laplace was skeptical of his ideas while some other scientists like Fernel started thinking on converse patterns.
Some other scientists like Jean Fernel focused on theory of production of electricity by magnetism and production of currents in conducting metals. Jean Fernel ...

They are unified with the similar topic, which depicts the importance of human soul and neglects everything material. Nevertheless, there are also a lot of differences in poetic form, linguistic and stylistic devices chosen. For sure, some of them are predetermined by the time when the ...
