Overview: Brings classical Indian views on beauty into dialogue with their Western counterparts.Includes essays by academics, artists and curators.Advances a deeper yet critically informed understanding of beau.This volume examines the motives behind rejections of beauty often found within contemporary art practice, where much critically acclaimed art is deliberately ugly and alienating. It reflects on the nature and value of beauty, asking whether beauty still has a future in art and what role it can play in our lives generally. The volume discusses the possible “end of art,” what art is, and

Overview: In the Preface to Volume 1, we stated: This series recognizes that investigators who have entered neurochemistry from the biochemical tradition have a rather specialized view of the brain. Too often, interdisci­ plinary offerings are initially attractive but turn out to recite basic biochemical considera­ tions. We have come to believe that there are now sufficiently large numbers of neurochemists to support a specialized venture such as the present one. We have begun with consideration of traditional areas of neurochemistry which show considerable scientific activity. We hope they w

Overview: Sexual boundary violations in psychotherapeutic relationships.Reappraisal of the events at the AKJP in Heidelberg.Empirical study.The book provides - for the first time in the German-speaking world -a comprehensive scientific contribution to the reappraisal ofsexualized violence in a psychotherapy institute. The qualitative casestudy takes a look at decades of abuse of power and sexualized violenceby the director of an analytical institute for children and youngpeople. It shows that the psychotherapists involved in this system donot live up to central ideas and concepts of their prof

Overview: Dur previous volume 14 was devoted to an exposition of the topics of sensitivity analysis and uncertainty theory with its development and application in nuclear reactor physics at the heart of the discussion. In this volume, we return to our customary format as a selection of topics of current interest, authored by those working in the field. These topics range from the theoretical underpinnings of the (linear) Boltzmann transport equation to a resume of our ex­ pectations in what still may be thought of as twenty-first century technology, the world‘s fusion reactor program.
