Overview: Spatial dispersion, namely, the dependence of the dielectric-constant tensor on the wave vector (i.e., on the wavelength) at a fixed frequency, is receiving increased attention in electrodynamics and condensed-matter optics, partic­ ularly in crystal optics. In contrast to frequency dispersion, namely, the frequency dependence of the dielectric constant, spatial dispersion is of interest in optics mainly when it leads to qualitatively new phenomena. One such phenomenon has been weH known for many years; it is the natural optical activity (gyrotropy). But there are other interesting e

Overview: More psychiatric in focus than the large number of works on cultural issues from counseling psychology, clinical psychology and social work.Emphasis on a consultation model (time-limited interventions.Based on a recently completed project of cultural consultation in Montreal, .Cultural Consultation. presents a model of multicultural and applicable health care. This model used clinicians and consultants to provide in-depth assessment, treatment planning, and limited interventions in consultation with frontline primary care and mental health practitioners working with immigrants, refug

Overview: Combines philosophy, economics, politics, and other related fields.Makes a case for a representative democracy with free market economy and a small state.Contemporary Greece serves as illustrating casDevelopments across the millennia suggest that, even though democracies and free market economies are continuously challenged by crises and disturbances, such as natural disasters, wars, or technological revolutions, in the countries where they take roots civil liberties deepen and per capita prosperity increases. To substantiate this claim analytically, the authors emphasize the princip

Overview: To beat your competitors you must know exactly what they are doing. It is impossible to put together a successful competitive strategy if you are unsure what your competitors are doing, what they plan to do or even who your competitors really are. As markets evolve even more rapidly and companies adapt their plans much faster, the demand for competitive intelligence has spiralled. Christopher West, an expert in the field, shows you how to collect, analyse and use competitive intelligence from a variety of sources, including the internet, and change your competitive strategy according

Overview: The use oflubricants began in ancient times and has developed into a major international business through the need to lubricate machines of increasing complexity. The impetus for lubricant development has arisen from need, so lubricatingpractice has preceded an understanding ofthe scientific principles. This is not surprising as the scientific basis of the technology is, by nature, highly complex and interdisciplinary. However, we believe that the under­ standing of lubricant phenomena will continue to be developed at a mol­ ecular level to meet future challenges. These challenges wi

Overview: Discusses the definition, attributes, and disciplinary framework of climate change economics.Establishes theories and methods of climate change economics based on the perspective of human development..This book establishes theories and methods of climate change economics based on the perspective of human development.

CCD Astrophotography from the Suburbs details one man’s approach to the problem of getting high-quality astronomical images under light-polluted conditions. Adam Stuart has writ

Overview: .Immer mehr Frauen entscheiden sich für die Ausübung eines männerdominierten Handwerksberufs. Quantitative Forschungen zeigen, dass die Handwerkerinnen in ihrem Umfeld Vorurteilen ausgesetzt sind. Dies kann zu konfliktären Situationen führen, die die Frauen als Störfaktor wahrnehmen. Bisherige Forschungen lassen die Sichtweise der Handwerkerinnen auf die Konflikte ihres Berufsalltags vermissen. Daher wird in diesem Buch eine qualitative Forschung mit zehn Frauen in männerdominierten Handwerksberufen durchgeführt. Ziel der Arbeit ist, herauszufinden, welche Copingmechanismen die Handw

Overview: by Sir Karl Popper This is a great book, and an exciting book. I say so even though I happen to dis­ agree with the author in many minor points and one or two major points. Some of the minor points are merely terminological, and therefore very minor. I dislike the term ‘dialectic‘, because of its use since Hegel and Marx; and I dislike the term ‘gravitism‘, perhaps without a good reason. Thus I dislike the name which Professor Gal-Or has given to his theory. But the theory seems to me a great and a very beauti­ ful theory, so far as I can judge. Other minor points of disagreement are
