Overview: Includes supplementary material: How is linguistic theory related to linguistic practice? What do theoretical notions and models tell us about real-life language use? Are there any limits to what such notions and models can reasonably be taken to accomplish? These questions are fundamental to any serious investigation into the phenomena of human communication. The essays in this book show that philosophers and linguists of quite different brands have tended to give undue priority to their own favourite theoretical framework, and have presupposed that the descriptive scheme invoked by

Overview: Focuses on the idea of a modus vivendi as a way of governing political life.Illustrates both the merits and the limitations of a political theory of modus vivendi.Discusses how to deal politically witThis book focuses on the idea of a modus vivendi as a way of governing political life and addressing problems characterized by pluralism or deep-rooted diversity.

Overview: In the four years which elapsed between our first workshop on .Tidal Friction and the Earth‘s Rotation and the second, the proceedings of which are presented here, many of the disciplines involved made ad- vances which we felt should be exchanged. We were encouraged by the good reception our first report met with. Of course, more insight often means more problems. Therefore, this volume contains new results and revisions of matters which previously appeared settled. We are certainly far from "final answers". For this reason, differing opinions on some issues are to be found in this b

Overview: Aims to provide up-to-date coverage of new results in the field of robotic welding, intelligent systems, and automation.Presents papers selected from 2020 International Conference on Robotic Welding, The primary aim of this volume is to provide researchers and engineers from both academic and industry with up-to-date coverage of new results in the field of robotic welding, intelligent systems and automation. The book is mainly based on papers selected from the 2020 International Conference on?Robotic Welding, Intelligence and Automation (RWIA’2020)?in Shanghai and Lanzhou, China. The

Overview: Introduces the assertion-evidence slide structure that has been proven to effectively communicate the work of highly regarded engineers and scientists.Provides a new chapter detailing a fresh approach.The Craft of Scientific Presentations, 2nd edition. aims to strengthen you as a presenter of science and engineering. The book does so by identifying what makes excellent presenters such as Brian Cox, Jane Goodall, Richard Feynman, and Jill Bolte Taylor so strong. In addition, the book explains what causes so many scientific presentations to flounder..One of the most valuable contributi

Overview: This is a study of the words of political discourse in seventeenth-century England from which we now reconstruct its theories. Taking its starting point in modern theories of language,intellectual history is first reconceptualised. Part 1 presents an overview of the political domain in the seventeenth century arguing that what we see as the political was fugitive and subject to reductionist pressures from better established fields of discourse. Further, there were strong pressures leading towards an indiscriminate and relatively general vocabulary, in turn facilitating the imposition

Overview: Providing a current assessment of the major developments in Russian foreign policy since the collapse of the Soviet Union at the end of 1991, the book begins with an examination of the emerging trends in Russian policy and the impact of domestic political and economic factors on Russian policy. Succeeding chapters outline the development of Russian policy in the major geographic regions of the world: the new states of the ‘near abroad‘, Central Europe and the Balkans, the West, Asia, the Middle East, and the developing countries.978-1-349-25442-2978-1-349-25440-8

Overview: Questions the use of metrics as a proxy for education quality.Provides a nuanced account of the impact that quantification has on teachers and pupils’ everyday routines.Theorises the role of affect inThis book develops a theoretically rich analysis of quantification and subjectivity, tracing new linkages between educational policy and everyday life in schools, diving deeper into ‘ordinary’ schools as they encounter and navigate quantified forms of recognition. With a focus on Chile as a critical case of neoliberal experimentation, this book investigates whether intense exposure to qu

Overview: First book that presents a large collection of theoretical results in a consistent manner.Includes supplementary material: .Local search has been applied successfully to a diverse collection of optimization problems. It‘s appreciated for its basic conceptual foundation, its general applicability, and its power to serve as a source for new search paradigms. The typical characteristics of combinatorial optimization problems to which local search can be applied, its relation to complexity theory, and the combination with randomized search features have led to a wealth of interesting the

Overview: Details the mathematical theory of Loop Antennas and Nano-scaled Rings From Radio to Optical Frequencies.Focuses on Closed, Impedance Loaded and Split-ring Loops and Rings.The author makes available M.This book develops the analytical theory of perfectly conducting and lossy metal, circular, round-wire loop antennas and nano-scaled rings from the radio frequency (RF) regime through infrared and the optical region. It does so from an antenna theory perspective. It is the first time that all of the historical material found in the literature has appeared in one place. It includes, part

Overview: Uses the voices of the individuals and families who lived during this time and new archival documentation to reconstruct the daily lives of Vienna’s Jews.Creates a vivid picture of the co-dependent reThis book examines Jewish life in Vienna just after the Nazi-takeover in 1938. Who were Vienna’s Jews, how did they react and respond to Nazism, and why? Drawing upon the voices of the individuals and families who lived during this time, together with new archival documentation, Ilana Offenberger reconstructs the daily lives of Vienna’s Jews from Anschluss in March 1938 through the entir

Overview: The 1st International Workshop on Acinetobacter was held on 6th September, 1986, in Manchester, England, in association with the 14th International Congress of Microbiology. That occasion was so well attended and productive that there were soon discussions about how, when and where the next meeting should be held. This time, however, there was sufficient confidence to think of a more substantial meeting and to plan for the proceedings to be published. It emerged that there was wide agreement that the time was ripe to take stock of the entire biology of Acinetobacter: its occurrence a

Overview: Explains how telemedicine can improve cancer care, quality of life and survival rates.Adopts a patient-centered focus rather than merely presenting solutions that will soon become outdated.Written by This book explains how telemedicine can offer solutions capable of improving the care and survival rates of cancer patients and can also help patients to live a normal life in spite of their condition. Different fields of application – community, hospital and home based – are examined, and detailed attention is paid to the use of tele-oncology in rural/extreme rural settings and in devel
