Overview: This volume addresses the central theme of adjusting the United Nations system in light of, firstly, the broadening definition of security, secondly, a perceived shift from modernity to post-modernity; and finally, the contemporary debate about reform, adaptation and institutional learning in multilateral institutions during transnational periods. The UN has not been successful in learning appropriate lessons that could facilitate requisite changes to its structure and operations. Thus the authors in this study focus on the lessons learned from the organizations‘ recent performance i

Overview: Provides a complete presentation of the concept of "atmosphere".Discusses various applications of atmopshere in the humanities and social sciences.Brings together studies and ruminations on the role a.This book provides a presentation of the concept of “atmosphere” in the realm of aesthetics. An “atmosphere” is meant to be an emotional space. Such idea of “atmosphere” has been more and more subsumed by human and social sciences in the last twenty years, thereby becoming a technical notion. In many fields of the Humanities, affective life has been reassessed as a proper tool to unders

Overview: Die diagnostischen Fortschritte der Ausstrichcytologie haben bisher nur ill beschei­ denem Umfang Eingang in die ärztliche Praxis gefunden. Ein wesentlicher Grund dafür ist die Tatsache, daß das vorhandene Abbildungsmaterial zu sehr typisiert wurde, um dem Anfänger eine Einarbeitung in dieses Gebiet zu ermöglichen. Die Ausmerzung dieses Mißstandes soll eine Hauptaufgabe des vorliegenden Buches sein. Aus diesem Grunde haben wir versucht, in den einleitenden Einzeltafeln und bei der Besprechung der einzelnen Krankheitsbilder durch Abbildung zahlreicher Übersichtstafeln die große morpho
