Overview: Sozialwissenschaftliche StudieDemokratieforschung beschäftigt sich zwar mit den institutionellen Aspekten von „Demokratien“, nicht jedoch mit den sozialpsychologischen Zusammenhängen, aufgrund derer sie gebildet werden oder scheitern können. Behrouz Alikhani zeigt aus einer sozialpsychologischen Perspektive, welche Gesellschafts- und Persönlichkeitsstrukturen zur Aufrechterhaltung einer Demokratie auf institutioneller Ebene erforderlich sind und was geschieht, wenn diese Strukturen keine hinreichende Grundlage bilden.978-3-531-19307-6978-3-531-19308-3

Overview: Concise and self-contained treatment of the theory.Thorough analysis of optimality and adaptivity issues.Detailed account on minimax lower bounds.Methods of nonparametric estimation are located at the core of modern statistical science. The aim of this book is to give a short but mathematically self-contained introduction to the theory of nonparametric estimation. The emphasis is on the construction of optimal estimators; therefore the concepts of minimax optimality and adaptivity, as well as the oracle approach, occupy the central place in the book...This is a concise text developed

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Bacterial CpG-DNA sequences not only serve for genetic information but act as "danger" signal to alert immune cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells. CpG-DNA directly causes activation of these members of the innate immune system yielding in up-regulation of co-stimulatory molecules and pro-inflammatory cytokines. As such they act as "natural" adjuvants to promote protective Th1 polarized T cell immune responses. This book is the first comprehensive review of the data emerging in this field.978-3-642-64077-3978-3-642-59672-8Series ISSN 0070-217

Overview: Developing measures of potential work-family tensions imposed by the macro-context.Ranking EU member states according to the conditions for work and family reconciliation.Systematising and assessing t.The book explores interlinkages between women’s employment and fertility at both a macro- and a micro-level in EU member states, Norway and Switzerland. Similarly as many other studies on the topic, it refers to the cross-country variation in the macro-context for explaining  cross-country differences in women’s labour supply and fertility levels. However, in contrast to other studies,

Overview: Economies are open systems embedded in an ecosystem with whichthey exchange matter and energy. Interactions among these systems arevital for each system‘s performance and are constrained by the laws ofphysics. This volume pays tribute to economy--environment interactionssimultaneously from an economic, ecological and physicalperspective.. .Integrating Economics, Ecology andThermodynamics. provides a first step in identifying and combiningthe principles of economics, ecology and thermodynamics on afundamental level.

Overview: Intermedial Shakespeares argues that intermediality has refashioned performances of Shakespeare‘s plays over the last two decades in Europe. It describes ways in which text and author, time and space, actor and audience have been redefined in Shakespearean productions that incorporate digital media, and it traces transformations in practice.978-1-349-47180-5978-1-137-36004-5Series ISSN 2947-5848 Series E-ISSN 2947-5856

Overview: 1.1 General Introduction The work which comprises this essay formed part of a multidiscip­ linary project investigating the folding of the developing cerebral cortex in the ferret. The project as a whole combined a study, at the histological level, of the cytoarchitectural development concom­ itant with folding and a mathematical study of folding viewed from the perspective of differential geometry. We here concentrate on the differential geometry of brain folding. Histological results which have some significance to the geometry of the cortex are re­ ferred to, but are not discussed

Overview: This book presents the classic relative consistency proofs in set theory that are obtained by the device of ‘inner models‘. Three examples of such models are investigated in Chapters VI, VII, and VIII; the most important of these, the class of constructible sets, leads to G6del‘s result that the axiom of choice and the continuum hypothesis are consistent with the rest of set theory [1]I. The text thus constitutes an introduction to the results of P. Cohen concerning the independence of these axioms [2], and to many other relative consistency proofs obtained later by Cohen‘s methods.

Overview: Climate change is one of the major environmental concern of many countries in the world. Negotiations to control potential climate changes have been taking place, from Rio to Kyoto, for the last five years. There is a widespread consciousness that the risk of incurring in relevant economic and environmental losses due to climate change is high. Scientific analyses have become more and more precise on the likely impacts of climate change. According to the Second Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, current trends in greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions may
