Overview: Interest in research on nanoscale materials is steadily increasing: nano-structured magnetic materials exhibit new and interesting physical properties, which cannot be found in the bulk. Many of these unique properties have great potential for technical applications in magneto-sensors, bio-sensors, magneto-electronics, data storage, magnetic heads of computer hard disks, single-electron devises, microwave electronic devices, etc. Current research concentrates on device design, synthesis and the characterization of nanostructured materials. The contributions to this book concentrate o

Overview: In Bird of Passage by Rudolf Peierls, we find a paragraph in which he de­ scribes his Cambridge days in the 1930s: On these [relativistic field theory] problems my main contacts were Dirac, and the younger theoreticians. These included in particular Nevill (now Sir Nevill) Mott, perhaps the friendliest among many kind and friendly people we met then. Professor Kamimura became associated with Sir Rudolf Peierls in the 1950s, when he translated, with his colleagues, Peierls‘s 1955 textbook, Quantum Theory of Solids, into Japanese. This edition, to which Sir Rudolf himself contributed a

Overview: This book is open access, which means that you have free and unlimited access.Explores how the Nordic welfare epoch was built not only on propaganda and persuasion.Highlights transnational and transme.This open access edited volume shines new light on the history of propaganda and persuasion during the Nordic welfare epoch. A common analytical framework is developed that highlights transnational and transmedial perspectives rather than national or monomedial histories. The return of propaganda in contemporary debate underlines the need to historically contextualize the role and funct

Overview: This volume represents the proceedings of the third in a series of annual inter­ national symposia. The first, The Neuroregulation of Autonomic, Endocrine, and Immune Systems, was held in Indianapolis in the fall of 1985. The second, Psychological and Biological Approaches to the Understanding of Human Disease, was held in Bielefeld, Germany in the fall of 1986. The theme of this series concerns the communication between the central nervous system and the other major systems of the body, and the purpose is to monitor the frontiers of research into these neuronal/hormonal regulatory i

Overview: Elucidating the factors regulating plant nutrient acquisition, the volume is central to our understanding of plant ecology and evolution.Includes supplementary material: .Adaptation and evolution of terrestrial plants depend, to a large extent, on their ability to acquire nutrients. This is a modern and integrative treatment of the mechanisms controlling plant nutrient uptake and how plants respond to changes in the environment. The following key topics are covered: soil nutrient bioavailability; root responses to variations in nutrient supply; nitrogen fixation; regulation of nutrie

Overview: Explains the nature and creation of sound, how it travels through air and water.Serves as a field guide to sounds and how to hear them for everyone who enjoys being out and about.Explains how the hear. .This book explains the nature of sound both as a physical phenomenon and as a sensation, how it travels through air and water, and how the hearing system evolved to convert these vibrations into sensations. Drawing on physics, biology, neuroscience, philosophy, literature, history, anecdote, and personal experience, "Now Hear This" is a wide-ranging exploration of the nature of sound

Overview: Offers a socio-historical overview of the Turkey-Cyprus military conflict and Cyprus post-1974 partition.Analyses the re-adaptation of Greek Cypriot nationalism, militarism and masculinity following m.This book uses empirical research to introduce the relationship between nationalism, militarism and masculinity. The co-constitution between these three factors is susceptible to change and hinders reconciliation, according to the author. Drawing on the case of Cyprus, a country in conflict with Turkey, Efthymiou reveals how nationalism, militarism and masculinity were constructed after

Overview: This book contains eleven articles which provide empirical applications as well as theoretical extensions of some of the most exciting recent developments in time-series econometrics. The papers are grouped around three broad themes: (I) the modeling of multivariate times series; (II) the analysis of structural change; (III) seasonality and fractional integration. Since these themes are closely inter-related, several other topics covered are also worth stressing: vector autoregressive (VAR) models, cointegration and error-correction models, nonparametric methods in time series, and f

Overview: Leibniz war einer der größten Philosophen aller Zeiten und sein Werk findet weltweit Beachtung. Auch die lange Zeit weitgehend vernachlässigte Rechtsphilosophie von Leibniz erfreut sich seit einigen Jahren zunehmender Aufmerksamkeit bei Leibnizforschern, Rechtshistorikern Rechtsphilosophen und Historikern der Philosophiegeschichte.Das vorliegende Werk enthält vertiefende Beiträge von bekannten europäischen Leibnizforschern, Philosophen und Juristen.
