Overview: Most components of the biosphere are continuously ex­ posed to oxygen from the atmosphere. Accordingly, the inex­ orable deterioration of all organic compounds by the slow attack of oxygen must occur. Despite this eventuality, a definitive treatment of oxygen-dependent decomposition of any single important natural product has not heretofore been made. The instant monograph attempts to provide a complete description of the autoxidation of one such impor­ tantnatural product, cholesterol, as the matter is currently understood. The autoxidation of cholesterol in Nature has been a matter

Overview: Analyzes the relationship of the cultural imaginary and the social order of things with a sociological approach, offering an unique empirical analysis of aesthetic phenomena in culture.Bridges the dis.This book develops a theory of aesthetic fiction’s impact on social identities. Throughout five case studies, the author develops the argument that social identities are nurtured by and may even emerge through the conflict between different aesthetic expressions. As it creates affective structures, narrative fiction enables the development and formation of political and cultural identit

Overview: A comprehensive review of the classical and most recent theories and research findings on emotions pertinent to construction of cultural models.A comprehensive review of cultural models of emotions fr.This book provides a multidisciplinary overview of cultural models of emotions, with particular focus on how cultural parameters of societies affect the emotional life of people in different cultural contexts. Going beyond traditional dichotomy of West-East comparison and related parameters of culture, such as individualism-collectivism and power distance, it also examines many other cu

Overview: Covers most of what is known on cardinal invariants in Boolean algebras.Includes a list of 185 interesting open problems.Detailed study of 21 cardinal number valued functions defined for any Boolean a.This book is concerned with cardinal number valued functions defined for any Boolean algebra. Examples of such functions are independence, which assigns to each Boolean algebra the supremum of the cardinalities of its free subalgebras, and cellularity, which gives the supremum of cardinalities of sets of pairwise disjoint elements. Twenty-one such functions are studied in detail, and ma

Overview: Using basic tools from the first year of university studies, the book leads a reader to the impressive achievements of mathematics of the 21st century.Studying the book, the reader will get acquainted.This book is devoted to classical and modern achievements in complex analysis. In order to benefit most from it, a first-year university background is sufficient; all other statements and proofs are provided. ..We begin with a brief but fairly complete course on the theory of holomorphic, meromorphic, and harmonic functions. We then present a uniformization theory, and discuss a represe

Overview: As originally planned this volume was meant to cover a somewhat wider scope than, in fact, it has turned out to do. When, in rg68, I initially conceived of preparing it, it was proposed to deal with several aspects of early modern scepticism, in addition to the fortuna of the Academica, and to publish various loosely related pieces under the title of ‘Studies in the History of Early Modern Scepticism. ‘ Thereby, I foresaw that I would exhaust my knowledge of the subject and would then be able to turn my attention to other matters. In initiating my research on this topic, however, I s

Overview: Editors and contributors are top names in the field.Topical approach and organization of the volume provides a succinct overview of a specific subject relating to interrelated topics pertaining to neuUp until approximately 20 years ago, the idea that the central nervous system (CNS) and components of the immune system were dynamically interactive was considered impossible (or at least highly unlikely) as the CNS was judged an immunosuppressive environment based upon experimental evidence highlighting the survival of tissue grafts within the brain. Additional evidence supporting this

Overview: Examines some of the ways geometries continue to shape the sensibilities, practices and structures of much of educational discourse, in spite of the well-developed critiques of their associated logicsThis book takes a fresh approach to using educational tools to solve profound problems in societies. The authors bring perspectives from curriculum studies, mathematics education, environmental education, and Indigenous epistemologies to a new consideration of “geometries to think with”. These tools reveal the wealth of resources and interrelationships in our world that have the potentia

Overview: Trotz oder gerade wegen der aktuellen Situation an den Kapitalmärkten und im Bankwesen stellen Kred- derivate für die Finanzwelt ein höchst relevantes Thema dar. Sie sind wichtige Instrumente der Steuerung bzw. des Managements von Kreditportfolios geworden und ermöglichen die Weitergabe von Bonitätsrisiken an den Kapitalmarkt. Der volumensmäßige Zuwachs in den letzten Jahren ist sehr beeindruckend. Frau Dr. Eva Wagner setzt sich in ihrer Arbeit mit einem Derivat, nämlich dem Credit Default Swap (CDS) auseinander. Konkret geht es dabei primär um die Fragestellungen der Informationsver

Overview: .Das Buch beschäftigt sich mit der gesellschaftlich relevanten Frage, wie Konsumenten stärker zu einem nachhaltigeren Konsumverhalten motiviert werden können. Die fokussierte Analyse von Einflussfaktoren der Gewissensaktivierung zeigt dabei auf, unter welchen Bedingungen sich diese moralisch stärker bzw. weniger stark bewegt fühlen, ihre Kaufentscheidungen an sozial-ökologischen Kriterien auszurichten. Die Erkenntnisse liefern Handlungsempfehlungen für Anbieter nachhaltiger Produkte und verbraucherpolitische Akteure..978-3-658-34234-0978-3-658-34235-7Series ISSN 2628-2089 Series E-IS

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by the Université Grenoble Alpes and CNRS, France.Addresses several aspects of thermodynamics and correlations in the strongly-interacting regime of one-dimens.The book addresses several aspects of thermodynamics and correlations in the strongly-interacting regime of one-dimensional bosons, a topic at the forefront of current theoretical and experimental studies. Strongly correlated systems of one-dimensional bosons have a long history of theoretical study. Their experimental realisation in ultracold atom experiments is the subject of current

Overview: 1 The Purpose of This Text This text has been written in response to two trends that have gained considerable momentum over the past few years. The first is the decision by many undergraduate engineering and science departments to abandon the traditional programming course based on the aging Fortran 77 standard. This decision is not surprising, considering the more modem features found in languages such as Pascal and C. However, Pascal never developed a strong following in scientific computing, and its use is in decline. The new Fortran 90 standard defines a powerful, modem language,

Overview: ​In den letzten Jahren erfährt Nachhaltigkeit einen erheblichen Bedeutungsanstieg. Der Blick in die Praxis zeigt, dass in diesem Zusammenhang Nachhaltigkeit verstärkt in die Unternehmensmarke und -kommunikation integriert wird. Dennoch ist ein Mangel an empirischen Studien zu konstatieren, die die individuellen Erfolgsbeiträge einer Unternehmensmarke und unternehmerischer Nachhaltigkeit integriert betrachten. Um diese Forschungslücke zu schließen, führt Christian Rauch eine entsprechende bevölkerungsrepräsentative Untersuchung durch. Die Ergebnisse geben einen differenzierten Einblic

Overview: A key objective of the Central European Economies (CEE) ontheir transition path from planned to more market-oriented economieshas been membership of the European Union (EU). The start of Economicand Monetary Union (EMU) in 1999 has added membership of the EMU tothe agenda for the CEEs. The task of the so-called Visègradcountries (the Czech and Slovak Republics, Hungary and Poland) ofpreparing for EU and EMU membership is the key theme underlying thepapers contained in this volume. There are many issues to be resolvedbefore the Visègrad countries are admitted into the EU, andthis volu
