Overview: Reviews underlying theory in more detail than other books * Links theory to applications *.Based on a postgraduate course * A set of exercises is integrated into the textLinear Geostatistics covers basic geostatistics from the underlying statistical assumptions, the variogram calculation and modelling through to kriging. The underlying philosophy is to give the students an indepth understanding of the relevant theory and how to put it into practice. This means going into the theory in more detail than most books do, and also linking it with applications. It is assumed that readers, s

Overview: Cutting across the humanities and social sciences, and situated in sites across the black diaspora, the work in this book collectively challenges notions that we are living in a post-racial age and instead argue for the specificity of black cultural experiences as shaped by gender and sex.978-1-4039-7775-5978-1-137-07795-0Series ISSN 2945-7416 Series E-ISSN 2945-7424

Overview:  This book acknowledges and highlights the moral excellence embedded in black queer practices of family. Taking the lives, narratives, and creative explorations of black queer people seriously, Thelathia Nikki Young brings readers on a journey of new, queer ethical methods that include confrontation, resistance, and imagination. Young asserts that family and its surrounding norms are both microcosms of and foundations for human relationships. She discusses how black queer people are moral subjects whose ethical reflection, lived experience, and embodied action demonstrate valuable mo

Overview: Bivalve filter-feeding mollusks are important components of coastal ecosystems because they remove large quantities of suspended material from the water and excrete abundant amounts of reactive nutrients. These animals are also major prey for numerous predators including birds, fish, mammals, and invertebrates; furthermore, they are significant food resources for humans. While studies on the organismic and population level have dominated bivalve ecology, the recent focus on the ecosystem roles of filter feeding systems has led to larger-scale investigations. With this approach the sp

Overview: Behavioral Finance helps investors understand unusual asset prices and empirical observations originating out of capital markets. At its core, this field of study aids investors in navigating complex psychological trappings in market behavior and making smarter investment decisions. Behavioral Finance and Capital Markets reveals the main foundations underpinning neoclassical capital market and asset pricing theory, as filtered through the lens of behavioral finance. Szyszka presents and classifies many of the dynamic arguments being made in the current literature on the topic through

Overview: For centuries the Roman Catholic Church has been concerned with the moral implications of medical practice. Indeed, until two decades ago, Catholic moral theologians were the major source of moral guidance, scholarly reflection and teaching on a variety of medical-moral topics, particularly those bearing on human life. Many, not only those within the Catholic communion, turned to the Church for guidance as each new possibility for altering the conditions of human life posed new challenges to long held moral values. Two decades ago, the center of gravity of ethical reflection shifted

Overview: Von den Zweigen des Bürgerlichen Rechts kommt der Wirtschaftswissen­ schaftler mit dem Recht der Schuldverhältnisse am häufigsten und intensiv­ sten in Berührung, obwohl nicht alle dort zu behandelnden Fragen für ihn die gleiche Bedeutung haben wie für den Juristen. Diese Umstände stellen dem Verfasser vor allem zwei Aufgaben: Einmal muß eine Darstellung für den Wirtschaftswissenschaftler einen Abriß des gesamten Rechtsstoffes bieten, und zwar in einer leicht faßlichen Art, die zunächst nicht allzuviel juristische Kenntnisse voraussetzt, aber dennoch so prägnant formuliert ist, daß s

Overview: The present volume includes papers presented in the International Symposium on Adaptations to Terrestrial Environment, held in Halkidiki, Greece from September 26th to October 2nd, 1982, as well as some invited ones from well known scientists working in the same field. It seemed rather optimistic to deal just in the same volume with such a variety of organisms (micro­ organisms to higher plants) on the basis of the1r adaptive strategies for survival on land. It would appear as the entire ecology ought to be included. It was a challenge for us. We undertook this challenge hoping that

Overview: Eine Bilanz des bürgerschaftlichen Engagements in DeutschlandWie ist es um das Projekt Bürgergesellschaft in Deutschland bestellt? Sind die aktuell diskutierten wissenschaftlichen und gesellschaftspolitischen Konzepte einer „aktiven Bürgergesellschaft“ überhaupt tragfähig und realistisch? Kann die Bürgergesellschaft das leisten, was sie laut Politik und Wissenschaft leisten soll? Oder dient „Bürgergesellschaft“ nur als billiger Jakob und Munition für Sonntagsreden? Wenn „Wunsch“ und „Wirklichkeit“ so weit auseinander klaffen, ist es Zeit für eine Bestandsaufnahme und kritische Reflek
