Overview: Eine literaturwissenschaftliche Studie.Eine Arbeit über die Haitianische Revolution.Eine Studie zu Sklavenaufst?nden in der LiteraturHaiti, die erste Schwarze Republik, wurde zur Chiffre einer Aporie derAufkl?rung. Denn die Haitianische Revolution (1804) wurde von derfranz?sischen Kolonialmacht vehement bek?mpft: offenbarend, dass dieIdeale von Freiheit, Gleichheit und Brüderlichkeit keineswegs für allegemeint gewesen waren. Der Band widmet sich der Frage, wie in derLiteratur vom 18. Jahrhundert bis heute Sklavenaufst?nde verhandeltwerden. Im Sinne einer transatlantischen Romanistik

Overview: East meets West in this fascinating exploration of conceptionsof personal identity in Indian philosophy and modern Euro-Americanpsychology. Author Anand Paranjpe considers these two distincttraditions with regard to historical, disciplinary, and cultural`gaps‘ in the study of the self, and in the context of suchtheoretical perspectives as univocalism, relativism, and pluralism.The text includes a comparison of ideas on self as represented by twoeminent thinkers-Erik H. Erikson for the Western view, andAdvaita Vedanta for the Indian.978-1-4419-3295-2978-0-306-47151-3Series ISSN 1574-0

Overview: Among the variety of wave motions one can single out surface wave pr- agation since these surface waves often adjust the features of the energy transfer in the continuum (system), its deformation and fracture. Predicted by Rayleigh in 1885, surface waves represent waves localized in the vicinity ofextendedboundaries(surfaces)of?uidsorelasticmedia. Intheidealcase of an isotropic elastic half-space while the Rayleigh waves propagate along the surface, the wave amplitude (displacement) in the transverse direction exponentially decays with increasing distance away from the surface. As a

Overview: Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Studie.Includes supplementary material: Durch die Elektrifizierung des Antriebsstrangs sind die Automobilhersteller gezwungen, ihr Produktionssystem anzupassen. Die Entscheidung über die Fertigungstiefe ist sowohl durch Nachfrage- und Technologieunsicherheit als auch durch die M?glichkeit einer dynamischen Anpassung der Strategie gekennzeichnet. Christian Huth entwickelt einen Planungsansatz, welcher diese Aspekte berücksichtigt und auf Basis einer Simulation die finanziellen Implikationen unterschiedlicher Fertigungstiefenstrategien bewertet. ?978-3-658-

Intermediate calculations are presented in complete detail. Problems at the end of each chapter help students to consolidate their understanding of the ma

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This book is based upon lectures presented in the summer of 2009 at the INFN-Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati School on Attractor Mechanism, directed by Stefano Bellucci. The symposium included such prestigious lecturers as S. Ferrara,? G. Dall‘Agata, J.F. Morales, J. Simón and M. Trigiante. All lectures were given at a pedagogical, introductory level, which is reflected in the specific "flavor" of this volume. The book also benefits from extensive discussions about, and the related reworking of, the various contributions. .It is the fifth volume in a

Overview: Presents semiparametric or non-Gaussian methods for causal discovery.Explains methods that are capable of estimating causal direction in the presence of hidden common causes.Provides an overview of ap.This is the first book to provide a comprehensive introduction to a new semiparametric causal discovery approach known as LiNGAM, with the fundamental background needed to understand it. It offers a general overview of the basics of the LiNGAM approach for causal discovery, estimation principles, and algorithms.. . This semiparametric approach is one of the most exciting new topics in t

Overview: Few pathologie phenomena, as shock, can originate from so many causes and involve so many complex physiologie mechanisms: The complexity of the phenomenon, thus, has resulted in extensive study and raised many uncertainties. Different conditions, such as hemorrhage, trauma, burns, bacterial infection, and anaphylaxis, can cause a shock state which initiates a chain of biochemical events that tends to maintain the shock. Recent progress in bio- chemistry, physiology, and pharmacology has tended to clarify this chain of events, and elucidate the possible trigger mechanism. Besides the

Furthermore, covers a vast array of special topics and applications illustrating the wide use recent approac

Overview: Drawing on the theoretical work of Deleuze and Guattari and that of Jean Laplanche - particularly his major and as yet still relatively unfamiliar notion of the phantasme - Social Formation in Hardy‘s Major Novels is an original and groundbreaking rereading of Hardy‘s four major tragic novels. The readings are sophisticated and yet accessible. The theoretical work is complemented by the use of new and hitherto unregarded major empirical findings that reveal the very heart of Hardy‘s creative universe.978-1-349-51292-8978-0-230-50452-3

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by CERN, Geneva.Winner of best thesis award of the ALICE Collaboration at the CERN LHC.Gives a comprehensive view of heavy-flavour hadrons in high-energy nucle.This thesis provides a comprehensive view of the physics of charmed hadrons in high-energy proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions. Given their large masses, charm quarks are produced in the early stage of a heavy-ion collision and they subsequently experience the full system evolution probing the colour-deconfined medium called quark-gluon plasma (QGP) created in such collisions. In thi

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by Imperial College London, UK.Presents a combination of material synthesis and characterization with process modeling.Outlines the equilibria and kinetics of This thesis presents a combination of material synthesis and characterization with process modeling. In it, the CO2 adsorption properties of hydrotalcites are enhanced through the production of novel supported hybrids (carbon nanotubes and graphene oxide) and the promotion with alkali metals. Hydrogen is regarded as a sustainable energy carrier, since the end users produce no carbon emis

Overview: First book to deal with the specific problems and issues confronted by social security (law) of small jurisdictions.Tests some general conceptions on the reality of 20 small states and territories froThe book examines whether small jurisdictions (states) are confronted with specific issues providing social security and how to deal with these issues. How is social security law impacted by the smallness of the jurisdiction? First, the author examines the key concepts ‘small jurisdiction’ and ‘social security’ as he understands them in the present research. He then pays some attention t

Overview: This is the first book-length presentation and defense of a new theory of human and machine cognition, according to which human persons are .superminds.. Superminds are capable of processing information not only at and below the level of Turing machines (standard computers), but above that level (the "Turing Limit"), as information processing devices that have not yet been (and perhaps can never be) built, but have been mathematically specified; these devices are known as .super.-Turing machines or hypercomputers. Superminds, as explained herein, also have properties no machine, whet

Overview: Having kidney failure is not a unique experience. Neither is receiving a kidney transplant or undergoing dialysis. Adopting to irreversible uremia - a devastating illness- by assisting others to cope with their own life trial represents the best of human traits.

Preparation of this volume had two main objectives: 1) To honor the author for all of efforts in behalf of k

Overview: The Russian school system should have an important role to play in the process of democratisation and the revival and modernisation of the economy in that country. Is it in a position to respond to this task? In this book an analysis is conducted of the attempts to reform the Russian school system in the 1990s, setting the progress made and problems encountered by the schools against the broader context of political, economical and social flux in Russia as a whole.978-0-333-98352-2Series ISSN 2946-8728 Series E-ISSN 2946-8736
