Overview: Ein Modell für soziale GerechtigkeitIn Zeiten der Zunahme prekärer Arbeitsverhältnisse und wachsender Ungleichverteilung der Einkommen ist die Entkoppelung von Einkommen und Erwerbsarbeit aktueller denn je. Im Verlauf der Arbeit wird Schritt für Schritt aufgezeigt, wie mit einem garantierten Grundeinkommen eine Reform der sozialen Sicherungssysteme gelingen kann. Der Weg des garantierten Grundeinkommens zeigt sich als beste Lösung, wenn Armutsfreiheit, diskontinuierliche Arbeit, selbstbestimmte Beschäftigung, ein Mindesteinkommen als soziales Grundrecht und die Reform des Wohlfahrtss

Overview: In der ethnographischen Studie wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie Kinder am Angebot der institutionellen Schulvorbereitung teilnehmen bzw. wie sie dieses (mit-)hervorbringen. Hierfür wurden die Kinder über ihr letztes Kindergartenjahr hinweg während dieses Arrangements begleitet und teilnehmend beobachtet. Neben den aktuellen Konzepten der Kindheitsforschung spielen hierzu praxistheoretische Zugänge eine zentrale Rolle und deren relationale Perspektive auf Schulvorbereitung, als soziales Gefüge aus Akteur:innen, Artefakten und den zugrundeliegenden Strukturen.Die Ergebnisse zeigen, wie

Overview: The philosophy of the humanistic sciences has been a blind-spot in analytic philosophy. This book argues that by adopting an appropriate pragmatic analysis of explanation and interpretation it is possible to show that scientific practice of humanistic sciences can be understood on similar lines to scientific practice of natural and social sciences.978-1-349-34567-0978-0-230-35548-4

Overview: A state-of-the-art of the main methodologies to manage imperfect information, as well as examples of their utilizationsThis book presents the main tools for aggregation of information given by several members of a group or expressed in multiple criteria, and for fusion of data provided by several sources. It focuses on the case where the availability knowledge is imperfect, which means that uncertainty and/or imprecision must be taken into account. The book contains both theoretical and applied studies of aggregation and fusion methods in the main frameworks: probability theory, evid

Overview: The past decade has seen a remarkable increase in the use of electron microscopy as a researm tool in biology and medicine. Thus, most institu­ tions of higher learning now boast several electron optical laboratories having various levels of sophistication. Training in the routine use of elec­ tron optical equipment and interpretation of results is no longer restricted to a few prestigious centers. On the other hand, temniques utilized by researm workers in the ultrastructural domain have become extremely diverse and complex. Although a large number of quite excellent volumes of elec

Overview: Covers hybrid recommender systems, deep learning-based techniques, and graph-based recommender systems.Includes step-by-step implementation of all techniques using Python with real-world examples.Expl.This book will teach you how to build recommender systems with machine learning algorithms using Python. Recommender systems have become an essential part of every internet-based business today...You‘ll start by learning basic concepts of recommender systems, with an overview of different types of recommender engines and how they function. Next, you will see how to build recommender sys

Overview: Explores the demarcation between the mainstream Islam dominant in the UK and West Yorkshire and Sufi African Islam.Investigates how discourses of ‘otherness’ contribute toward the silencing of alterna.The book highlights issues related to the construction of gender in Africa and African identity politics. It explores the limitations of the constructed category of “African Muslim woman” in West Yorkshire. Amina Alrasheed Nayel uses Black feminist epistemology along with postcolonial, feminist, and critical race theory to examine the multiple identities that Sudanese women negotiate in

Including several case studies of successfulimplementation, it demonstrates how the increasing complexity of the businessenvironment requires a significant intervention on the management of processesand information within individual organizations and through inter-companyrelations. .Agile P

Overview: The overall scope of this new series will be to evolve an understanding of the genetic basis of (1) how early mesoderm commits to cells of a heart lineage that progressively and irreversibly assemble into a segmented, primary heart tube that can be remodeled into a four-chambered organ, and (2) how blood vessels are derived and assembled both in the heart and in the body. Our central aim is to establish a four-dimensional, spatiotemporal foundation for the heart and blood vessels that can be genetically dissected for function and mechanism. Since Robert DeHaan‘s seminal chapter "Morp

Overview: Latent variable models are used in many areas of the social and behavioural sciences, and the increasing availability of computer packages for fitting such models is likely to increase their popularity. This book attempts to introduce such models to applied statisticians and research workers interested in exploring the structure of covari­ ance and correlation matrices in terms of a small number of unob­ servable constructs. The emphasis is on the practical application of the procedures rather than on detailed discussion of their mathe­ matical and statistical properties. It is assum
