Overview: The concept of participation from a philosophical-anthropological and sociological perspective.Historical and gerontological-empirical findings.Concrete starting points for political-practical tasksLife must be understood as the result of evolution, and human life as the emergence of the species Sapiens from the genus Homo of the family of apes. If the emergence of human life as an evolutionary fact is coupled with the notion of social life, we are referred to the constructive production of human life forms, of which social participation is an integral part. On the one hand, particip

Overview: Professor Srinivasa Rao‘s text on Linear Algebra and Group Theory is directed to undergraduate and graduate students who wish to acquire a solid theoretical foundation in these mathematical topics which find extensive use in physics.

Overview: Exploiting barrier interference is the challenge of membrane separation science and technology.This book is about the principles behind.Provides expert knowledge as an survey, in systematic order, of .On the level of a textbook a self-consistent approach to liquid separations with membranes is presented, contrasting equilibrium separations with the rate-controlling effects of barrier interference on mass transfer. As a corollary objective, an effort is made to observe context, factual and historical, when introducing concepts and applications of membrane separation science. Ordering

Overview: Die Arbeitnehmer und Arbeitnehmerinnen sollen zukünftig länger erwerbstätig sein. Die gesetzliche Anhebung der Altersgrenze zum Renteneintritt und finanzielle Verschlechterung bei einem frühzeitigen Berufsausstieg bewirken jedoch nicht, daß die Beschäftigten auch länger arbeiten können. Die Arbeits- und Beschäftigungsbedingungen, die Erwerbsverläufe, die Arbeitszeit und die Arbeitsanforderungen müßten auch entsprechend "altersgerecht" organisiert und gestaltet werden. Welche Konzepte und Vorstellungen gibt es dazu? Und wie ist es um die Möglichkeiten bestellt, diese in der betrieblic

Overview: Develops functional analysis in an original way, motivated by natural examples of plane geometry.Provides many examples and counterexamples to help the reader understand the meaning, usefulness and op.This textbook, based on three series of lectures held by the author at the University of Strasbourg, presents functional analysis in a non-traditional way by generalizing elementary theorems of plane geometry to spaces of arbitrary dimension. This approach leads naturally to the basic notions and theorems. Most results are illustrated by the small ℓ.p. spaces. The Lebesgue integral, mea
