Since he was in the first grade, fourteen-year-old Nicholas Gilroy has felt that God might be calling him to be a Catholic priest. To determine whether he has a vocation, he applies and is accepted as a freshman at Saint Peter’s High School Seminary. Nicholas, who has been homeschooled, is overwhelmed by the size of the building. He is also intimidated by the vice rector, Father Stephen Reynolds, who, from Nicholas’s perspective, should be in the marines and not in a seminary. The young man soon develops a friendship with Jose and Luke, two other freshman boys, which helps him to achieve success on the football team and to enjoy his new life at Saint Peter’s. But when Nicholas signs up for an after-school program to help tutor children in the inner city, he finds himself thrown into an adventure that puts his life at risk and changes him forever. In this novel, a teenage boy enrolled in a seminary participates in an after-school tutoring program in the inner city and comes face-to-face with life-changing danger.

From Theory of Knowledge Management to Practice is a collaborative compilation featuring contributions from various authors. The book amalgamates analytical principles with the practical aspects of knowledge management in the business realm. Its unique contribution lies in bridging the gap between engineering/technology disciplines and the organizational, administrative, and planning dimensions of knowledge management. This integration is particularly valuable when viewed in conjunction with other sub-disciplines like economics, finance, marketing, and decision and risk analysis, among others. The book not only introduces but also illustrates knowledge management theories through practical case studies. These case studies showcase significant outcomes across different sectors, drawing on diverse real-world scenarios. The theoretical framework is accompanied by relevant analytical techniques, adopting a progressive approach that transitions from basic concepts to intricate and dynamic decision-making processes involving multiple data points, including big data and extensive datasets. The integration of computational techniques, dynamic analysis, probabilistic methods, and mathematical optimization further enhances the book's utility, offering expert support for the analysis of multi-criteria decision-making problems characterized by specific constraints and requirements.
