Overview: This book results from a two-day symposium and three-day workshop held in Cambridge between March 22nd and March 26th 1982 and sponsored by the Primate Society of Great Britain and the Anatomical Society of Great Britain and Ireland. More than 100 primatologists attended the symposium and some 35 were invited to participate in the workshop. Speakers from Prance, Germany, the Netherlands, South Africa and the U. S. A. , as weIl as the U. K. , were invited to contribute. In recent years feeling had strengthened that primatologists in Europe did not gather together sufficiently often. D

Overview: Globally, forest vegetation and soils are both major stores of terrestrial organic carbon, and major contributors to the annual cycling of carbon between the atmosphere and the biosphere. Forests are also a renewable resource, vital to the everyday existence of millions of people, since they provide food, shelter, fuel, raw materials and many other benefits. The combined effects of an expanding global population and increasing consumption of resources, however, may be seriously endangering both the extent and future sustainability of the world‘s forests. About thirty chapters cover f

Overview: A crucial issue in the era of globalisation and internationalization, is whether the relationship between investment and finance is beneficial to growth and development. Received wisdom is that Research and Development is essential not only for maintaining productivity, but also for competing in the marketplace. Similar questions have been raised about education and its rate of ‘social return; is education necessary for improving the skill of the workforce, or does it serve primarily to facilitate the adoption of these new technologies? This book brings together a case of leading int

Overview: .Feedback Amplifiers: Theory and Design. deals with feedback and feedback amplifiers. Although this topic has been extensively investigated over the years, theoretically exact and at the same time sufficiently simple and well organized material is not, to the authors‘ judgement, present today in literature. After describing the fundamental properties of feedback, the book illustrates techniques of analysis for greater insight into feedback amplifiers and design strategies to optimise their performance. ..The book has two main targets 1) a tutorial purpose since its aim is first to in

Overview: The last few years have borne witness to a remarkablediversity of formal methods, with applications to sequentialand concurrent software, toreal-time and reactive systems,and to hardware design. In that time, manytheoreticalproblems have been tackled and solved, and many continuetobe worked upon. Yet it is by the suitability of theirindustrial application and the extent of their usage thatformal methods willultimately be judged.This volume presents the proceedings of the firstinternational symposium of Formal Methods Europe, FME‘93.The symposium focuses on the application ofindustria

Overview: Racism, race hygiene, eugenics, and their histories have for a long time been studied in terms of individual countries, whether genocidal ideology in Nazi Germany or scientific racial theories in the United States. As this study demonstrates, however, eugenic racial policy and scientific racism alike had a strongly international dimension. Concepts such as a ‘Racial Confederation of European Peoples‘ or a ‘blonde internationalism‘ marked the thinking and the actions of many eugenicists, undergirding transnational networks that persist even today. Author Stefan Kühl provides here a hi

Overview: Dem nächtlichen Straßenverkehr kommt eine hohe Bedeutung zu, wobei die Sichtbedingungen und deren technische Unterstützung durch künstliche Beleuchtung zentral sind. Ein Großteil der wissenschaftlichen Diskussion in diesem Bereich beschäftigt sich mit der Sichtbarkeit von mehr oder weniger definierten Einzelobjekten, oft vor einem anlassbezogenen Hintergrund der Verkehrssicherheit. Die vorliegende Arbeit widmet sich dem weit seltener beforschten, unter Praxisgesichtspunkten jedoch höchst relevanten, regelmäßig stattfindenden nächtlichen Fahrverhalten und untersucht, welchen Einfluss
