Overview: In recent years local government staff working in housing have been subject to a welter of legislation, financial cuts and increased expectations on the part of their clients. Research in the field has shown that, although in many respects local authorities and housing associations are adapting to necessary changes, there is still much room for improvement. The management of change and the realignment of housing practice form the subject matter of this book. The contributors, all of whom are practitioners or practitioners turned academic, discuss how this might be done. To this end,

Overview: Die gegenwärtigen Entwicklungen in der Handelsforschung, insbesondere bei den Standortfragen, werden aus gesamtwirtschaftlicher Sicht und aus der Perspektive der Handelsbetriebsführung dargestellt. Die Priorität für den Themenschwerpunkt .Standortfragen. ist bestimmt durch den intensiven und mit Konzentrationserscheinungen verbundenen Wettbewerb um (zum Teil künstlich verknappte und folglich überteuerte) Standorte - mit allen Folgeerscheinungen für einzelne Handelsunternehmen, für die Struktur des Einzelhandels und für die Wirtschaftspolitik als Ganzes.978-3-7908-0412-6978-3-642-9362

Overview: Hypertension is a major world-wide health problem. With high blood pressure there is a greater risk of stroke, heart attack, heart failure, kidney disease and renal failure. Far too few people realize what the risks are and what can be done to prevent these risks even in the countries where pro­ grams in hypertension research are active and the full significance of hyper­ tension is best understood. Some studies of the known hypertensive popu­ lation indicate that one-half or less are receiving adequate treatment, and, of those on therapy, only half have their high blood pressure sat

Overview: Johnston argues that the preemptive first-use of nuclear weapons, long the foundation of American nuclear strategy, was not the carefully reasoned response to a growing Soviet conventional threat. Instead, it was part of a process of cultural ‘socialization‘, by which the United States reconstituted the previously nationalist strategic cultures of the European allies into a seamless western community directed by Washington. Building a bridge between theory and practice, this book examines the usefulness of cultural theory in international history.978-1-349-53188-2978-1-4039-7693-2

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This research monograph introduces some new aspects to the theory of harmonic functions and related topics. The authors study the analytic algebraic structures of the space of bounded harmonic functions on locally compact groups and its non-commutative analogue, the space of harmonic functionals on Fourier algebras. Both spaces are shown to be the range of a contractive projection on a von Neumann algebra and therefore admit Jordan algebraic structures. This provides a natural setting to apply recent results from non-associative analysis, semigroups a

Overview: Hume‘s Philosophy of Religion brings together for the first time the whole range of Hume‘s immensely important critique of religion. The major concern is with a clear discussion and presentation of philosophical issues wherever they occur in Hume‘s writings, but items in the history of ideas, questions of interpretation and biographical details are introduced when they contribute to an understanding of Hume‘s position. Already reviewed as a standard work on Hume on religion and as a good general introduction to Hume‘s thought, this new edition has been extensively revised and extende

Overview: The great number of varied approaches to hydrodynamic stability theory appear as a bulk of results whose classification and discussion are well-known in the literature. Several books deal with one aspect of this theory alone (e.g. the linear case, the influence of temperature and magnetic field, large classes of globally stable fluid motions etc.). The aim of this book is to provide a complete mathe­ matical treatment of hydrodynamic stability theory by combining the early results of engineers and applied mathematicians with the recent achievements of pure mathematicians. In order to

Overview: This volume contains the Proceedings of the Fifth Scientific Meeting of the Spanish Astronomical Society (Sociedad Espanola de Astronomfa, SEA). The meeting was held at the Universidad de Castilla La Mancha in Toledo, from September 9 to 13, 2002. The event brought together 219 participants who pre­ sented their latest results in many different subjects. In comparison with the previous scientific meetings of the Society, the numbers of oral talks and poster contributions (122 and 64, respectively) are rapidly increasing, confirming that the SEA conferences are becoming a point of ref

Overview: This guide to James Joyce‘s major novels presents a refreshing approach to understanding the work of this challenging and enigmatic giant of twentieth-century literature.
