Overview: This book analyzes major transformations in Jewish life and thought: from idolatry to exclusive monotheism in the biblical age, from state-based identity to cultural nationalism in the Roman empire; and, in the European Diaspora, from theology to secularism and revived political nationalism in the modern period. Fundamental questions are asked about Jewish survival in a variety of topics including prophecy, Jewish law, Midrash, the Roman-Jewish wars, Stoicism, secular poetry in Muslim Spain, Marx and Freud, and Hebrew literature through the ages.978-1-349-51356-7978-1-4039-3733-9

Overview: German machine tool manufacturers are increasingly confronted with difficulties in gaining competitive advantages by offering highly customized products. But necessary cost reductions can be obtained by employing a modularization strategy that explicitly considers customers‘ requirements already in the module design stage. Nils Tönshoff presents a new framework of the machine tool building and selling process that accounts for optimized cross-functional decision making in module design, machine tool manufacturing and product marketing. The tradeoff between customization and standardi

Overview: Offers an up-to-date review of of the theory of multivariate.nonparametric methods based on spatial signs and ranks.Provides concise and self-contained treatment of the theory.Examples accompanied by This book offersa new, fairly efficient, and robust alternative to analyzing multivariate data. The analysis of data based on multivariate spatial signs and ranks proceeds very much as does a traditional multivariate analysis relying on the assumption of multivariate normality; the regular L2norm is just replaced by different L1 norms, observation vectors are replaced by spatial signs an

Overview: .Sabrina Bersch untersucht in zwei aufeinander aufbauenden qualitativen Studien das mathematische Argumentieren im Analysisunterricht aus der Perspektive von Lehrkräften. Zunächst werden die Begriffe .Argumentieren., .Begründen. und .Beweisen. geklärt und in einem Modell zueinander in Beziehung gesetzt. Das mathematische Argumentieren wird dabei im weiten Sinne als Oberbegriff verstanden. Die erste Interviewstudie thematisiert unter anderem die aktuelle Situation des mathematischen Argumentierens im Analysisunterricht. Es zeigt sich insbesondere, dass die Heterogenität von Lerngruppe

Overview: Mit der stürmischen Entwicklung der Luftfahrt in den letzten Jahren hat auch die Bautechnik Schritt halten müssen und vor allem in Amerika und West­ europa eine neue Technik ausgebildet, die sich mehr und mehr von der ursprüng­ lich geübten Straßenbautechnik entfernt. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist der Versuch, den Stand dieser Technik auf Grund der zahlreich erschienenen Einzeldarstellungen und Veröffentlichungen in der deutschen und fremdsprachigen Literatur einmal sinngemäß unter Zuhilfenahme der auf zahlreichen Baustellen gemachten Erfahrungen zu ordnen und zusammen­ zustellen. Kriti

Overview: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th German Conference on Multiagent System Technologies, MATES 2013, held in Koblenz, Germany, in September 2013. The 29 revised full papers and 3 keynote talks presented were carefully reviewed and selected from various submissions. The papers cover a broad area of topics of interest ranging from issues of agent-based coordination to simulation to negotiation.978-3-642-40775-8978-3-642-40776-5Series ISSN 0302-9743 Series E-ISSN 1611-3349

Overview: For the first time one volume brings together a comprehensive up-to-date description of mechanosensitive ion channels in the nervous cells.For the first time one volume provides a throughout review of.This book presents the latest findings in mechanosensitivity of the nervous system. The nervous system stands out from a number of tissues because besides reacting to the mechanical stress it is transmitting its own response to other organs and tissues, which are located downstream of its signaling pathway. For this reason any type of mechanical stimulation of the nervous system, which

Overview: .The study of the interaction of molecules with surfaces and interfaces is of great importance for the understanding of adsorption and catalysis on solid surfaces, the complex properties of molecules on fluid interfaces and the relationship between structure and functionality in macromolecular biological systens. It is the aim of this volume to present and analyse in a comprehensive and accessible way the methodical achievements and the recent progress in this field. The broadness of both scope and selection of the topics should help in particular non-expert readers to become familia

Overview: Philosophers through the ages have made the astute observation that life, in its many aspects, appears to be continuously moving. All things in the universe, from the cosmic to the atomic level, exhibit some form of movement. Getting down to earth, the capacity to move is also an essential feature of the biological world. Movement was in fact synonymous with life at the time that Antony van Leeuwenhoek made the first simple microscope (seventeenth century). Using his primitive instrument he observed micro-organisms. which he called ‘animalcules‘, swimming through a drop of water, and
