Overview: Manias, Panics and Crashes was first published in 1978, and dealt with financial crises that were, for the most part, before World War II. Black Monday of October 1987, along with more research especially on the years from 1880 to 1893 indicated a need for a second look. The third edition had its stimulus in the Japanese crash of January 1990, the effects of which carried through to decade. This new fourth edition covers the striking troubles of Mexico in 1994-95 and East Asia in 1997-98.978-0-230-53675-3

Overview: Europäische Staaten und militärische InterventionWenn westliche Industrienationen an militärischen Auslandseinsätzen teilnehmen, spiegelt diese Entscheidung stets eine sorgfältige Abwägung verschiedener internationaler und innerstaatlicher Einflussfaktoren wider. Anhand von vierzehn militärischen Auslandseinsätzen werden in dieser Studie die Teilnahmeentscheidungen von Deutschland, Frankreich, Großbritannien, Österreich, Polen und Spanien miteinander verglichen und mit Hilfe politik-, medien- und kommunikationswissenschaftlicher Ansätze untersucht. Dabei zeigt sich, dass nicht nur di

Overview: Sixty years ago at the Waite Agricultural Research Institute, G. Samuel, a plant pathologist, and C. S. Piper, a chemist, published their conclusion that the cause of roadside take-all, a disease of oats, was manganese deficiency. This report, together with the concurrent and independent studies of W. M. Carne in Western Australia were the first records of manganese deficiency in Australia and came only six years after McHargue‘s paper which is generally accepted as the final proof of the essentiality of this element. There must have been a few doubts for some people at the time, how

Overview: Visionary elaboration about physical and data traffic.Includes supplementary material: Mobility is a prime need of mankind. It is the basis not only of economical and technical but also of cultural progress. Many questions arise with respect to the development and the problems of mobility in the 21st century. This book presents the results elaborated by a project team consisting of students of the "Bayrische Elite-Akademie". They applied themselves to four main topics: - Bimodal transport system. - Mobility and transport in agglomoration areas. - Analogies of physical and virtual tra

Overview: .Kommunikationsabteilungen in Unternehmen stehen aktuell unter starkem Veränderungsdruck: So sind Erwartungshaltungen an die interne und externe Kommunikation aufgrund der Digitalisierung bei Entscheidern und Belegschaft im Unternehmen sowie von anderen Anspruchs- und Konsumentengruppen gestiegen. Die digitale Beschleunigung des Informationstransports, „rund-um-die-Uhr“-Verfügbarkeiten von Kommunikations- bzw. IT-Angeboten, der immer kürzer werdende Zyklus von technischen Neuerungen, ein „Informationswettbewerb“ diverser Angebote und vieles mehr, führen dazu, dass innerbetriebliche K

Overview: Covers contention trees, the repairman model, the bulk service queue, and tandem queues.Includes supplementary material: .Reservation procedures constitute the core of many popular data transmission protocols. They consist of two steps: A request phase in which a station reserves the communication channel and a transmission phase in which the actual data transmission takes place. Such procedures are often applied in communication networks that are characterised by a shared communication channel with large round-trip times...In this book, we propose queuing models for situations that

Overview: Discusses solutions to open problems in the analysis and structure of combining replacement with random working cycles by proposing ‘replacement overtime‘, in which a unit is replaced at the first comThis book introduces a new notion of replacement in maintenance and reliability theory. Replacement Overtime, where replacement is done at the first completion of a working cycle over a planned time, is a new research topic in maintenance theory and also serves to provide a fresh optimization technique in reliability engineering. In comparing replacement overtime with standard and random

Overview: Enthält nur so viel Mathematik, wie‘für die Bearbeitung der Forschungsfragen benötigt wird.Aufgabenserien ermuntern zu eigener Aktivität und eigenem Forschen.Veranschaulicht, wie einfache ÜberlegungenTiefe und breite Erkenntnisse in den Life Sciences erschließen sich nur mit Mathematik. In diesem Buch erfahren Sie, wie klassische und aktuelle mathematische Modelle Vorgänge in der belebten Natur beschreiben. Erleben Sie, wie einfache Überlegungen zu mathematischen Modellen führen, die unser Verständnis von den Phänomenen in der Biologie und der Medizin grundlegend neugestalten, und wi

Overview: For the first time, a book addresses how results from one scale can be shifted or related to another scale, say from macro to micro or vice versa.This is a new topic that is not well known up to now.TThis volume on multiscaling has been motivated by the advancement of nano-technology in the past four decades. In particular, nano-electronics has paved the way to show that the behavior of nano-size bodies are not only different from macro-size bodies but they do not obey the same physical laws. There appears to be a mesoscopic region which separates the laws of quantum physics and cont

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Eight years ago, the production management department ofthe WHU launched the industry competition ,Best Factory / Industrial Excellence Award‘ jointly with the media partner Wirtschaftswoche in Germany. Two years earlier, the competition had been initiated successfully by INSEAD faculty in France. Over the years, the joint research team experienced first-hand that application of Management Quality was a key driver ofcontinuous improvement along the firm‘s core business proc­ esses. Moreover, those companies that exhibited the highest improvement rates

Overview: Research on the mechanisms of plant defense responses to stress and pathogen attack has attracted much attention in recent years. This increasing interest stems from the fact that the tools of molecular biology now enable us to study the molecular basis of old biological concepts such as host-pathogen recognition (and particularly the gene­ for-gene relationship), hypersensitive cell death and systemic acquired resistance. Our knowledge about avirulence and resistance genes, elicitors, signal transduction and genes involved in plant defense is rapidly expanding. Moreover we are just

Overview: Identifies strengths, inconsistencies and key problems of transnational habitus.Proposes a theoretical model of transnational habitus.Provides case studies to test the applicability of transnational h.This book surveys and critiques existing empirical and theoretical literature on the Bourdieu-informed concept of transnational habitus. The term "transnational” has been used widely in studies of migration research where it has allowed scholars to have a deeper understanding of the practices not only of migrants moving across national borders but also of agents taking positions in tran

Von der Coronakrise lässt sich die Moderne nicht aufhalten auf ihrem Weg in die Computergesellschaft. Aber sie gerät unter verschärfte Beobachtung. Die Massenmedien legen den Sinnschleier der Krise über den öffentlichen Disput. Die Politik zeigt in der Funktion der Risikomanagerin, was sie (nicht) kann. Die Wirtschaft kämpft

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Medical Education and Sociology of Medical Habitus: "It‘s not about the Stethoscope!". is a new and outstanding contribution to understanding the working life of junior doctors. Here Dr Haida Luke uses a medical sociological framework to help us understand how young doctors fresh out of medical school enter the medical culture as junior doctors and begin the rapid professional education and intense enculturation processes. What sets .Medical Education and Sociology of Medical Habitus: "It‘s not about the Stethoscope!". apart from other works in this

Overview: Presents a new method for diagnosis and observation of dynamical systems.Includes supplementary material: Ongoing advances in science and engineering enable mankind to design and operate increasingly sophisticated systems. Both their design and operation require the understanding of the system and its interaction with the envir- ment. This necessitates the formalisation of the knowledge about the system by models. A major issue is what kind of model is best suited for a given task. This book is about the supervision of continuous dynamical systems. Such systems are typically describe
