Overview: In a stimulating and novel approach, this book explains why metaphors are persuasive, suggesting that they are ideologically effective because they are cognitively plausible and evoke an emotional response. ‘Critical Metaphor Analysis‘ is then developed in a series of corpus-based studies in which analysis of collocations provides insight into the cognitive motivation and expressive connotation of metaphor. By unifying traditional and cognitive semantic with pragmatic approaches, the reader becomes aware of the importance of metaphor in persuasive language.978-1-349-51630-8978-0-230-

Overview: Distinguished medical researchers from around the world review novel neural reconstructive techniques that appear to be beneficial for Parkinson‘s disease and hold promise for treating Huntington‘s disease, pain, demyelinating diseases, and stroke. The contributors focus on those diseases for which clinical trials are either ongoing or likely to occur in the near future. Among the topics reviewed are results and rationale for some of the leading transplant programs for the treatment of Parkinson‘s disease, the use of PET scanning for patient evaluation, autopsy studies of transplant

Overview: Considers the relevance of negative theology and apophatic thinking in today‘s society.Offers insights that are relevant for continental philosophy, theology, comparative literature, metaphysics, and .In this volume, scholars draw deeply on negative theology in order to consider some of the oldest questions in the philosophy of religion that stand as persistent challenges to inquiry, comprehension, and expression. The chapters engage different philosophical methodologies, cross disciplinary boundaries, and draw on varied cultural traditions in the effort to demonstrate that apophatic

Overview: Modification of embryonic development by genetic differences in the mother is a well-regcognized phemomenon, but little is known about the genet­ ics of these maternal traits or the mechanisms by which they act. To illustrate the genetic approach to the problem, examples are given of how differences in embryonic response to a teratogen can be partitioned into those resulting from differences in embryonic genotype (including the possible role of X-linked genes in producing reciprocal cross differences), maternal genotype, and cytoplasmically transmitted factors. The advantages and lim

Overview: The aim of this series is to bring the reader up-to-date data and opinions on the practice of urological surgery. The ten titles published since 1982 have all been concerned with adult urology, with reference to paediatric problems included in some relevant chapters. The addition of this title on paediatric urology is especially welcome because it brings together the important components of the sub-specialty. This book has developed from one of the first of the annual courses in urological sub-specialties provided for trainees in the UK as part of their higher surgical training. But

Overview: The first attempt to explicate how Lipman’s Philosophy for Children programme helps to achieve Popper’s educational ideal of fostering critical thinking in children for full participation in an open s​The purpose of this book is to develop a theory and practice of education from Karl Popper’s non-justificationist philosophy for promoting an open society. Specifically, the book is designed to develop an educational programme for fostering critical thinking in children, particularly when they are involved in group discussion.The study conducted an experiment to assess the effectiveness

Overview: Routing in dynamically changing networks is a challenge, especially when the current context, usually consisting of multiple criteria, is used as a quality measure and decision metric...Bernd-Ludwig Wenning presents a context-based routing framework which can be applied to routing in different application domains. The routing framework includes the signaling as well as a decision system that is applied for route selection. The author chooses two application domains to evaluate the routing framework: logistic transportation networks and wireless sensor networks. He shows that this rou

Overview: This book contains the papers that were presented at the "Crystallo­ graphic and Modeling Methods in Molecular Design Symposium" in Gulf Shores, Alabama, April 30 to May 3, 1989. During the past few years, there has been a burst of activity in this area, especially related to drug design and protein engineering projects. The purpose of the symposium and this book is to provide an up-to­ date review of the most recent experimental and theoretical approaches that are being used for molecular design. The book covers several re­ cent examples of approaches for using crystallography in co

Overview: This volume deals with one of the most active fields of research in mathematical physics: the use of geometric and topological methods in field theory. The emphasis in these proceedings is on complex differential geometry, in particular on Kähler manifolds, supermanifolds, and graded manifolds. From the point of view of physics the main topics were field theory, string theory and problems from elementary particle theory involving supersymmetry. The lectures show a remarkable unity of approach and are considerably related to each other. They should be of great value to researchers and

Overview: Answers the challenge of understanding peace education as a normalizing project of Western ideology and helps position the young field more prominently at leading universities around the world.Works t.Forward-thinking pedagogues as well as peace researchers have, in recent decades, cast a critical eye over teaching content and methodology with the aim of promulgating notions of peace and sustainability in education. This volume gives voice to the reflections of educational theorists and practitioners who have taken on the task of articulating a ‘curriculum of difference’ that gives p
