Overview: Provides a concise summary of the Green New Deal‘s animating vision and specific project fields.Outlines a reconstruction of the US infrastructure planning process, the financial system, monetary syst.Climate scientists have determined that we must act now to prevent an irreversible and catastrophic climatic tipping point, beyond which neither our own nor many other species can be assumed likely to survive. On the way to that bleak ending, moreover, extreme socio-economic injustice and associated political breakdown—now well underway in nations already hard-hit by environmental crisi

Overview: Brings together governance, history, political science, peace and conflict, and law under the same roof.Highlights FOI law to enhance good governance, anti-corruption and citizen participation in gove.This book argues that Sierra Leone’s ten-year civil conflict demonstrates the criticality of freedom of information (FOI) as a facet of good governance where corruption thrives, spanning both public and private sectors, if Sierra Leone’s continued security and stability are to be ensured. It argues that it was the absence of an anti-corruption tool like FOI and its attendants, transpare

Overview: .Formal methods have been applied successfully to the verification of medium-sized programs in protocol and hardware design. However, their application to the development of large systems requires more emphasis on specification, modelling and validation techniques supporting the concepts of reusability and modifiability, and their implementation in new extensions of existing programming languages...This book presents revised tutorial lectures given by invited speakers at the Third International Symposium on Formal Methods for Components and Objects, FMCO 2004, held in Leiden, The Net

Overview: Das vorliegende kleine Buch soll einen Überblick über den augenblick­ lichen Stand der Farbenlehre und die Methoden der Farbenmessung geben. Ein tieferes Eindringen ist nicht möglich ohne das Studium umfangreicherer Werke, die jedoch an Zeit und Aufmerksamkeit des Lesers erhebliche Ansprüche stellen (s. die Hinweise am Schluß des Buches). Hier soll versucht werden, in gedrängter Form einen Eindruck zu vermitteln, was auf diesem Gebiet erreicht wurde und nach welchen Prinzipien die Ordnung, Messung und Bewertung der Farben heute vorgenommen wird. Auf mathematische Formulierungen, auf

Overview: Examines from a critical perspective European financial markets integration and disintegration as processes that have led to an inherently instable finance-dominated capitalism.Criticizes the EU’s unfThe European Union is creating a Financial Union with a European Banking Union and a Capital Markets Union in reaction to lessons learned from incomplete financial markets integration, the Global Financial Crisis and European Sovereign Debt Crisis. This book critically analyses these projects for a more integrated, resilient and sustainable financial system at a time when the United King

Overview: O‘Hagan explores the phenomenon of filicide, a deliberate act of a parent killing his or her own son or daughter. Examining over 120 cases of filicide in the UK, this book identifies relationship and family patterns in which situations may rapidly deteriorate, and children may become the ultimate weapon in disputes between partners.978-1-349-43850-1978-1-137-02432-9

Overview: The second volume of Frontiers in European Radiology covers two very promising techniques in diagnostic radiology, namely digital radiography and nuclear mag­ netic resonance imaging. Leading experts in both fields from Europe and the Unit­ ed States were invited to give a critical overview; digital fluoroscopy is reported on mainly by American scientists since this technique has been developed primarily in the United States, while the results of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging are pre­ sented by British groups currently at the forefront of research in this field. The pa­ pers ref

Overview: Durchgerechnete Beispielaufgaben.Unterstützt bei der Umsetzung von technischen Fragestellungen in mathematische Aufgaben.Includes supplementary material: .Die „Klassiker der Technik“ sind unveränderte Neuauflagen traditionsreicher ingenieurwissenschaftlicher Werke. Wegen ihrer didaktischen Einzigartigkeit und der Zeitlosigkeit ihrer Inhalte gehören sie zur Standardliteratur des Ingenieurs, wenn sie auch die Darstellung modernster Methoden neueren Büchern überlassen. So erschließen sich die Hintergründe vieler computergestützter Verfahren dem Verständnis nur durch das Studium des klas

Overview: Systematischer Stoffaufbau, ergänzt durch Definitionen.Neubearbeitung greift aktuelle Entwicklungen, Verfahren und Vorgehensweisen auf.Flugmechanische Daten ausgewählter Flugzeuge ermöglichen eigene BDas Buch stellt die Grundlagen für den Entwurf und die Beurteilung von Flugregelungssystemen bereit. Die Bewegung des Flugzeugs in gestörter Atmosphäre wird modelliert und bezüglich Stabilität, Steuerbarkeit und Beobachtbarkeit analysiert. Mess- und Stellsysteme werden behandelt, soweit für den funktionalen Flugreglerentwurf nötig. Entsprechend den Aufgabenstellungen und Anforderungen an

Overview: Chapter 1 introduces some of the terminology and notation used later and indicates prerequisites. Chapter 2 gives a reasonably thorough account of all finite subgroups of the orthogonal groups in two and three dimensions. The presentation is somewhat less formal than in succeeding chapters. For instance, the existence of the icosahedron is accepted as an empirical fact, and no formal proof of existence is included. Throughout most of Chapter 2 we do not distinguish between groups that are "geo­ metrically indistinguishable," that is, conjugate in the orthogonal group. Very little of

Overview: Includes supplementary material: The behavior of polymer solutions in simple shear flows has been the subject of considerable research in the past. On the other hand, reports on polymers in elongational flow have appeared comparatively recently in the literature. Elongational flow with an inherent low vorticity is known to be more effective in extending polymer chains than simple shear flow and thus is more interesting from the point of view of basic (molecular chain dynamics at high deformation) and applied polymer science (rheology, fiber extrusion, drag reduction, flow through por
