Overview: The subject of liquid crystals and their use in electronic displays and in non-linear optical systems has become of tremendous importance during the last decade; and the incorporation of liquid crystal units into polymeric materials has led to a group of new materials with diverse properties. Some of these properties have been utilized in new products and some have yet to be used. Much published work has appeared that deals with specific materials or particular applications, and it was felt that a book was needed to examine and explain the underlying principles governing the diverse

Overview: "So! So! So! So! Wie dem Dichter Kleist schon auf Erden hätte geholfen werden können. Der Dichter ist des Lebens gründlich müde. Alle Vorbereitungen sind mit Sorgfalt getroffen: die Abschiedsbriefe verfaßt, die Sterbensgefahrtin gefunden, die Pistole geladen. Ein schwindliges, fiebriges Glücksgefühl hat den Dichter ergriffen - vom "Triumphgesang im Augenblick des Todes" stammelt er, ja von der "Wollust" des Sterbens. Da geht das Telephon. Und unser Dichter, zum Tode bereit, wird jählings ins Leben zurück­ gerufen. Sie freue sich, sagt die sympathische Stimme am anderen Ende der Leitu

Overview: An International Symposium on Low Vision was sponsored by the Centre for Sight Enhancement of the School of Optometry, University of Waterloo in June 1986, bringing low vision researchers and clinicians together from a number of countries. The unique feature of the conference is the multi-disciplinary approach towards low vision care. A total of 44 papers were presented in the three day period by speakers of note from the fields of optometry, ophthalmology, psychophysics, special education, nursing and vision rehabilitation. The papers deal with issues in diagnostic science, low visi

Overview: The major change between the second and third edition is the separation of linear and multilinear algebra into two different volumes as well as the incorporation of a great deal of new material. However, the essential character of the book remains the same; in other words, the entire presentation continues to be based on an axiomatic treatment of vector spaces. In this first volume the restriction to finite dimensional vector spaces has been eliminated except for those results which do not hold in the infinite dimensional case. The restriction of the coefficient field to the real and

Overview: It is a unique collection of Pattee’s papers on foundational principles relating physics, life, and informational symbol systems.It establishes the necessity of symbolic constraints on physical laws fHoward Pattee is a physicist who for many years has taken his own path in studying the physics of symbols, which is now a foundation for biosemiotics. By extending von Neumann’s logical requirements for self-replication, to the physical requirements of symbolic instruction at the molecular level, he concludes that a form of quantum measurement is necessary for life. He explains why all n

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Local Newforms for GSp(4) describes a theory of new- and oldforms for representations of GSp(4) over a non-archimedean local field. This theory considers vectors fixed by the paramodular groups, and singles out certain vectors that encode canonical information, such as L-factors and epsilon-factors, through their Hecke and Atkin-Lehner eigenvalues. While there are analogies to the GL(2) case, this theory is novel and unanticipated by the existing framework of conjectures. An appendix includes extensive tables about the results and the representation

Overview: Provides an overview of recent research on lifelogging to measure organizational stress.Highlights the main areas in longitudinal organizational stress research.Presents lifelogging tools that can be .In recent decades, organizational stress researchers have repeatedly called for more longitudinal studies. This book argues that tools and devices that have been developed for the private or organizational domains could be helpful when it comes to studying longitudinal phenomena, as they offer unobtrusive measurement and are frequently employed by many individuals in daily life.

Overview: This is an important critical assessment of Labour‘s periods of renewal and modernisation. Beginning with an indepth analysis of the Policy Review of 1987-92, the author then considers how the lessons of this period influenced the Commission on Social Justice instigated by John Smith, and Tony Blair‘s reform of Clause IV. These events are considered as attempts to resolve traditional problems facing the Labour Party, the abiding legacy and importance of these fundamental problems is assessed.978-0-333-65248-0978-1-349-25397-5

Overview: This book examines local government performance in key areas of social services and economic promotion in eight towns in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Russia. It dispels the myth that socio-economic ‘givens‘ or inter-governmental systems are key determinants of local development.978-1-349-35249-4978-0-230-59174-5Series ISSN 2633-5964 Series E-ISSN 2633-5972

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Building on his contributions to institutional legal theory in.Institutional Legal Facts. of 1993 (Law and Philosophy Library,volume 18), the author presents a comprehensive theory of legalinstitutions. To that end, the initial theoretical approach, whichmainly concentrated on problems connected with legal powers and legalacts (acts-in-law), is widened to allow for the development of atheory of legal judgements capable of accounting not only for enactedbut also unwritten law (legal principles and customary law). With theuse of the concept of instituti

Overview: Eine Studie zur Didaktik der HochschulmathematikLaura Ostsieker untersucht die Vorstellungen und Kenntnisse Studierender der Mathematik und des gymnasialen Lehramts Mathematik zum Begriff der Folgenkonvergenz. Im Rahmen einer Design-Based-Research-Studie entwickelt die Autorin eine Lernumgebung zur angeleiteten Nacherfindung des Konvergenzbegriffs. Dazu adaptiert sie ein Konzept von Przenioslo (2005) und analysiert retrospektiv die Erkenntnisprozesse der Teilnehmenden zweier Workshops. Als Ergebnis ihrer Studie legt die Autorin eine lokale Instruktionstheorie zur angeleiteten Nacherf

Overview: Four decades ago, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus was discovered, at about the same time and independently, in 3 different localities in the U.S.A. Armstrong and Lillie encountered the agent in a monkey when they passaged a recent isolate of the St. Louis encephalitis virus; Rivers and Scott isolated 5 strains from patients with meningitis; and Traub revealed the virus in a colony of albino mice. Already in these first isolations mice were incriminated, and later observa­ tions proved beyond doubt that M. musculus is the principal reservoir of the virus in nature. For some time LC

Overview: In 1845, John Franklin‘s Northwest Passage expedition disappeared. The expedition left an archive of performative remains that entice one to consider the tension between material remains and memory and reflect on how substitution and surrogation work alongside mourning and melancholia as responses to loss.978-1-349-34290-7978-1-137-06599-5Series ISSN 2947-5767 Series E-ISSN 2947-5775
