Overview: The purpose of this volume in the series Progress in Inflammation Research is to pro­ vide the biomedical researcher with a description of the state of the art of the devel­ opment and use of animal models of diseases with components of inflammation. Par­ ticularly highlighted are those models which can serve as in vivo correlates of diseases most commonly targeted for therapeutic intervention. The format is designed with the laboratory in mind; thus it provides detailed descriptions of the methodologies and uses of the most significant models. Also, new approaches to the development

Overview: This new, corpus-driven approach to the study of language and style of literary texts makes use of the Dickens‘ 4.6 million-word corpus for a detailed examination of patterns of lexical collocations. It offers new insights into Dickens‘ linguistic innovation, together with a nuanced understanding of his use of language to achieve stylistic ends. At the centre of the study is a close analysis of the two narratives in Bleak House , read as a focal point for consideration of Dickens‘ stylistic development through his whole writing life.978-1-349-51477-9978-0-230-00076-6

Overview: Includes supplementary material: There is a perception in the scientific community that the discipline of Physiology is in crisis, or at least, in a phase of profound transition and change. At the root of the problem is confusion between objectives (the biological questions to be solved) and the methods and technologies to be applied. Traditionally, ever since Claude Bernard’s concept of the “milieu interieur,” Physiology was an integrative science with the prime concern of studying regulatory mechanisms leading to adaptation and homeostasis in the presence of challenges from a dynam

Overview: Die wissenschaftlichen Literatur zum Thema Balanced Scorecard setzt sich vor allem mit der betriebswirtschaftlichen Weiterentwicklung dieses Steuerungsinstruments auseinander. Obwohl bei der unternehmensweiten Einführung der Balanced Scorecard eine informationstechnologische Unterstützung unabdingbar ist, wird dieser in aktuellen Veröffentlichungen nur selten Beachtung geschenkt...Peter Preuss arbeitet die wesentlichen Komponenten einer Balanced Scorecard-Software heraus und untersucht, welche Rolle das Data Warehouse-Konzept in diesem Kontext einnimmt. Darauf aufbauend zeigt er die

Overview: Since World War I scholars and practitioners alike have addressed themselves to defining and assessing the "new diplomacy," which the British diplomatist Harold Nicolson has branded the "American method." He distinguishes contemporary practice from earlier forms of diplomacy which, in The Evolution of Diplomatic Method (1954), on the basis of historical orientation, he designates the Greek, Roman, Italian, and French "systems" of diplo­ macy, in this order. Intensified multilaterial, as differentiated from bilateral, diplomacy - or what Lord Maurice Hankey treats as Diplomacy by Con­

Overview: Although this book is a study of the work of Emmanuel Levinas and Jacques Derrida, it would be mistaken to refer to it as a comparison. The book develops a framework which might aide the reader of Levinas and Derrida in determining the scope and significance of their respective projects as far as a discourse of the sacred is concerned. It does so by emphasizing their status as philosophers whose thought correlates but does not compare. Within this correlation, without obscuring either their differences or similarities, we can see a common framework that consists of the following elem

Overview: Intersektionalitätsforschung in Deutschland, Frankreich und den USA.Includes supplementary material: Die bisherigen Debatten um Intersectionality haben gezeigt, dass sich eine kontextunabhängige Definition von Intersektionalität nicht angeben lässt. Darüber hinaus bezeugt das ungebrochene Interesse an dieser Debatte, dass es eines kritischen Reflexionsinstrumentes von Ungleichheit und Differenz in Wissenschaft und Politik bedarf. Was also ist das Verhältnis von Intersektionalität und Kritik respektive kann Intersektionalität kritisch sein? Dieser Band behandelt die Frage in dreierlei
