Overview: The first volume specifically dedicated to the comparative study of “spiritual” or “sacred” kinship.Ethnographically explores the diverse manifestations of sacred kinship and articulates the significaThis volume examines the significance of spiritual kinship—or kinship reckoned in relation to the divine—in creating myriad forms of affiliations among Christians, Jews, and Muslims.  Rather than confining the study of spiritual kinship to Christian godparenthood or presuming its disappearance in light of secularism, the authors investigate how religious practitioners create and contest

Overview: Spotlights anti-oppression tactics to dismantle and re-build ‘leadership’ as a creative, mobilities practice.Addresses lacunae in mobilities by entangling creativity, neurodivergence, social justice &.This book is a rip-roaring manifesto that re-claims ways to think about and do ‘leadership’. Colliding mobilities, neuro-queering, the arts and culture, critical leadership studies, social justice, creative pedagogy, futurity and Daoist cosmology for the first time, the book proposes ‘neuro-futurism’ as a beyond-colonial, heuristic change-making tool-kit for individuals and institutions

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Hands-on experts in nanomaterial synthesis and application describe in detail the key experimental techniques currently employed in novel materials synthesis, dynamic cellular imaging, and biological assays. The author‘s emphasize diverse strategies to synthesize and functionalize the use of nanoparticles for biological applications. Additional chapters focus on the use of biological components (peptides, antibodies, and DNA) to synthesize and organize nanoparticles to be used a building block in larger assemblies. These new materials make it possible

Overview: This volume 4465 of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series is a coll- tion of the papers of the NET-COOP 2007 conference, a ?rst-of-a-series Euro- NGI/FGI Conference on Network Control and Optimization. The event took place in the beautiful city of Avignon, France, June 5–7, 2007, was jointly or- nized by INRIA and the University of Avignon and was hosted by the latter. Internet communications and services areexperiencing an increasein volume and diversity both in their capacity and in their demand. This comes at the cost of an increase in the complexity of their control and op

Overview: Entrepreneurship is an increasingly popular topic—in business research, education, practice and policymaking.Presents the most current data from the ongoing PSED project, with contributions from leadiThis research program began in 1993. The idea of developing representative samples of those active in the business creation process, now called nascent entrepreneurs, developed from the success of using regional characteristics to 1 predict variations in new firm birth rates in six countries. The initial purpose was to determine those external factors that encouraged individuals to initi

Overview: Das Normenproblem der Pädagogik revisited.Fragen nach einer guten pädagogischen Praxis.Neue Beiträge im Kontext von Theorie-Praxis-Zusammenhängen.In welchem Verhältnis steht die Erziehungswissenschaft zur Normativität pädagogischer Theorie und Praxis, aber auch zu den Erwartungen von Bildungspolitik und Bildungsplanung? Inwiefern versteht sie sich als engagierte oder distanzierte Forschung, die nicht nur Theoriebildung und empirische Forschung über Pädagogik vorantreiben, sondern auch in Bildungspolitik und pädagogische Praxis eingreifen will? Mit dem Thema Normativität behandelt das

Overview: Presents an introduction to one of the leading theorists in the social sciences, his work and career.Includes must-read content on the concept of knowledge and its role in central contemporary policy This unique volume brings together a selection of the most important texts of Nico Stehr for the first time and puts them in dialogue with original research that draws on his prolific work. Covering five decades of pioneering sociological research on the theory of society and knowledge, the book introduces the reader to Stehr’s seminal inquiries into the economic, political and social ro

Overview: Presents a new method for realization of all-optical processing and networking Written for all experts in this field Describes a new method to implement all-optical networking and processing.Includes "Nanostructure Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers" reviews all-optical processing methods currently available and presents semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) as a new building block for this purpose. The authors discuss the overcomes of high frequency operation of SOAs and propose a new all-optical pumping method for the implementation of semiconductor optical amplifiers.978-3-642-266

Overview: Reviews the role of nutrition in the management of psychiatric illnesses.Discusses nutritional therapy for treatment of psychiatric disorders.Highlights the effects of the diet on brain neurotransmittThe book comprehensively reviews the role of nutrition in psychiatric disorders. It provides mechanistic insights into the effects of nutrition on metabolic pathways, mitochondrial nutrients, neurodegeneration and CNS disorders, cell signaling, and neuronal functions.  The book further highlights the role of diet in preventing and treating mental health and modifying drug treatment effec

Overview: A few years ago, as the editor of Kidney International, I was ap­ proached by Drs. Cohen, Kassirer, and Harrington who suggested that a new feature should be included in each monthly issue of the journal. They suggested that it should employ a case discussion format such as that used frequently at specialty rounds in teaching hospitals, and that the discussion should place a special emphasis on the relationship between basic science and important problems in clinical nephrology. The summary of an actual patient history would first be presented to exemplify a particular clinical probl

Overview: A collection of the latest research developments in nanotechnology aimed at improving environmental and energetic sustainabilityThe world is facing great challenges in meeting rising demands for basic commodities (e.g., food, water, and energy), finished goods (e.g., cell phones, cars and airplanes) and services (e.g., shelter, healthcare and employment) while reducing and minimizing the impact of human activities on Earth‘s global environment and climate. Nanotechnology has emerged as a versatile platform that could provide efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally acceptable s

Overview: .This book reviews the recent international experience with the applications of computer assisted orthopaedic surgery in clinical practice. Recent decades of the human condition have witnessed the dramatic evolution of technology and the application to everyday existence. The ability to use such innovation in surgical practice is now easily within our grasp. Though clinical experience is short term, as will be demonstrated the problems are finite and limited only by the need for refinement. We can now clearly state that current surgical practice will be revolutionized by these new me
