Overview: Argues that strains will inevitably surface between competing interests of a liberal democratic approach to education and a state‘s interest in civic education.Highlights the internal inconsistencies . .This book explores the inherent tension in civic education. There is a surging belief in contemporary European society that liberal democracy should work harder to reproduce the civic and normative setups of national populations through public education. The cardinal notion is that education remains the best means to accomplish this end, and educational regimes appropriate tools to ma

Overview: Contains timely contributions from leading experts in the field.Covers a wide range of aspects of control and optimization of PDEs.Addresses both mathematicians and practitionersMany mathematical models of physical, biological and social systems involve partial differential equations (PDEs). The desire to understand and influence these systems naturally leads to considering problems of control and optimization. This book presents important topics in the areas of control of PDEs and of PDE-constrained optimization, covering the full spectrum from analysis to numerical realization and

Overview: Maximizes readers insight into the scientific knowledge currently available on the ecology and management of carrion (i.e. dead animal matter) in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.Provides a com.Carrion, or dead animal matter, is an inherent component of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems worldwide, and is exploited by a wide diversity of organisms from different trophic levels, including microbes, arthropods and vertebrates. Further, carrion consumption by scavengers, i.e. scavenging, supports key ecosystem functions and services such as recycling nutrients and energy, disposi

Overview: Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) are well furnished laboratories in which one can investigate a number of important physical processes. These processes include: thermonuclear reactions, nebular physics, winds, mass accretion phenomena on compact objects, magnetohydrodynamics, plasmas, thermal and non thermal radiative processes, relativistic phenomena, dust forma­ tion, etc . . In the recent year the most exciting development in our opinion was that the small, cold and invisible secondary components of CV s were found to be the prime motors for the evolution of close binary systems, discl

Overview: This book explores how we make sense of ourselves when work is precarious and intrinsically alienating. We know little about how this experience of work impacts the lives of men and women, and less about the way individuals understand themselves in the face of institutions and organizations from which they feel marginalized. Based on the narratives of men and women who underwent extraordinary work life changes, Crisis at Work examines how we negotiate greater meaning and fulfilment when our productive lives fail to sustain and satisfy. Reflecting a growing fracture between what we va

Overview: Explains the various sources of CO2-emissions.Explains chemical and biotechnological processes for transforming CO2 and CO into chemicals.Explains cross-sectorial synergies in the use of CO2 and CO.Climate protection and raw material change require new, sustainable carbon sources for the chemical and fuel industries. In fact, processes that recycle carbon-containing emission and gas streams industrially are reaching industrial practice. They will make an important contribution to reducing carbon emissions and moving towards a true carbon circular economy...This book describes the bas

Overview: Publication in the field of social sciences.Includes supplementary material: ​For social entrepreneurs, who often operate under conditions of resource scarcity, building partnerships offers an effective way to gain complementary capabilities. Heike Schirmer investigates the dynamics of partnerships between social ventures and corporations. Based on four case studies from Germany, the author shows two opposing formation processes. Means-driven partnerships, dominated by elements of effectuation, start with generalized aspirations and evolve over time. Goal-driven partnerships, dominat

Overview: Covers their nomenclature, classification, stereo-chemistry, physical and chemical properties of amino acids.Gives a detailed account of the solution phase and solid phase synthesis of peptides.Discus.This book is designed to serve as a textbook for core as well as elective courses offered to  undergraduate and advanced undergraduate students enrolled in chemistry. This textbook comprehensively deals various topics of organic chemistry such as amino acids, peptides, proteins and enzymes. The text is divided into four chapters: a chapter each dedicated to amino acids, peptides, protei

Overview: With the stagnation of the Doha Round of multilateral talks, trade liberalisation is increasingly undertaken through free trade agreements. Gabriel Siles-Brügge examines the EU‘s decision following the 2006 ‘Global Europe‘ strategy to negotiate such agreements with emerging economies. Eschewing the purely materialist explanations prominent in the field, he develops a novel constructivist argument to highlight the role of language and ideas in shaping EU trade policy. Drawing on extensive interviews and documentary analysis, Siles-Brügge shows how EU trade policymakers have privileged

Overview: .Computer Simulation in Chemical Physics. contains theproceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute held at CORISA,Alghero, Sardinia, in September 1992. In the five years that haveelapsed since the field was last summarized there have been a numberof remarkable advances which have significantly expanded the scope ofthe methods. Good examples are the Car--Parrinello method, whichallows the study of materials with itinerant electrons; the Gibbstechnique for the direct simulation of liquid--vapor phase equilibria;the transfer of scaling concepts from simulations of spin models tomore c
