Overview: Demonstrates that governments in Latin American hybrid regimes often choose forms of electoral manipulation illogically.Shows that occurrence of uneven playing fields in Latin America is not caused byThis book fills research gaps in the field of Latin American electoral politics, explaining the causes and consequences of electoral manipulation in the hybrid regimes of Latin America between the 1980s and 2020s. This research falls within the field of comparative democratization with the ambition of deepening  knowledge on the topic of electoral manipulation in hybrid regimes. In the l

Overview: Insight in how an economist handles human cognition, by incorporating various concepts and schemes into game theory.Insight in how relevant cognition is in classical economics (e.g. financial speculat.As a manifestation of a ‘cognitive turn‘ observable in all social sciences, .Cognitive Economics. is concerned with the beliefs and mental operations held by actors placed within a dynamical and strategic environment. It appears as a synthesis of an educative research program, dealing with crossed expectations of actors, and an evolutionist research program on collective learning proces

Overview: Offers a novel engagement of Charles Taylor from the perspective of Anglicanism.Presents an innovative account of the aesthetic as significant for Anglican theology.Illustrates how the realms of natur.This book considers the work of Charles Taylor from a theological perspective, specifically relating to the topic of ecclesiology.

Overview: Contains fundamental new results on the controllability of nonlinear dynamics by time-delayed feedback.Demonstrates potentially important applications in physics and medicine.Nominated as an outstandiThis research addresses delay effects in nonlinear systems, which are ubiquitous in various fields of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, and even in social and economic systems. They may arise as a result of processing times or due to the finite propagation speed of information between the constituents of a complex system. Time delay has two complementary, counterintuitive and alm

Overview: Ultrasound is uniquely able to quickly and reliably diagnose certain eye disorders and this is the only practical manual on how to do so.The case-based orientation and inexpensive paperback format are.Ultrasonography is an important adjuvant for the clinical assessment of a variety of ocular and orbital diseases. With proper use, one can gather a vast amount of information not possible with physical exam alone...Ultrasound is most useful when intraocular are difficult or impossible to examine. Situations that prevent normal examination include lid problems (severe edema, partial or t

Overview: Explores the history of cosmopolitan thought and feeling through the lens of war.Develops new vistas on the genealogy of cosmopolitan thought and internationalist practice.Examines Western European coThis book is the first study to engage with the relationship between cosmopolitan political thought and the history of global conflicts. Accompanied by visual material ranging from critical battle painting to the photographic representation of ruins, it showcases established as well as emerging interdisciplinary scholarship in global political thought and cultural history. Touching on th

Overview: This study examines the Norman settlement of Anglo-Saxon England that was begun before 1066 but which was made permanent by military conquest between 1066 and 1071. The Norman transformation of England was slow and fitful, however, politically and militarily reliant upon a divided opposition for success, and was to a large extent confined to the upper strata of government and society. The impact of this colonising venture, though deep, varied in intensity, and the resultant state was the product of interaction between conquerors and conquered.

Overview: First monograph to focus exclusively on coronary radiology.Special emphasis on non-invasive imaging modalities.Text supported by high-quality color images of the coronary and cardiac anatomy.Includes Due to the enormous progress in multidetector CT technology as well as in magnetic resonance angiography, non-invasive coronary imaging has matured to become a clini­ cal tool in daily radio logic practice. Therefore this book is a timely addition to the series Medical Radiology - Diagnostic Imaging. This is the most comprehensive and up-to-date work on alI aspects of non- invasive visua

Overview: Towards sustainable land use Dr. P. Folstar, Member of the TNO Board of Management Dr. M. Popp, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Research Centre Karlsruhe (FZK) Ten years ago, in 1985, TNO initiated the First Conference on Contaminated Soil in Utrecht. At that time, a rather complete inventory of suspected contaminated sites existed in The Netherlands. Time had come to consider further actions for investigations, evaluation and remediation. This concern has been spreading ever since to other European countries and throughout the world. In particular, German scientists and author

Overview: This volume describes our intellectual path from the physics of complex sys­ tems to the science of artificial cognitive systems. It was exciting to discover that many of the concepts and methods which succeed in describing the self­ organizing phenomena of the physical world are relevant also for understand­ ing cognitive processes. Several nonlinear physicists have felt the fascination of such discovery in recent years. In this volume, we will limit our discussion to artificial cognitive systems, without attempting to model either the cognitive behaviour or the nervous structure of
