Overview: Sozialwissenschaftliche Studie.Das Buch befasst sich mit der Situation demenzkranker wie palliativer Patienten, insbesondere mit deren Veränderungen hinsichtlich sprachlicher Interaktionsfähigkeiten. Die Autorin legt dar, dass es für den Erhalt einer dialogischen Patientenbeziehung erforderlich ist, den Fokus auf nonverbale Kommunikationsmöglichkeiten zu verschieben. Das dafür entwickelte Trainingsprogramm "Kommunikation ohne Worte" (KoW®) wird erläutert und evaluiert. Darin werden interpersonelle Kommunikationsfertigkeiten mit dem kommunikativ schwer eingeschränkten Menschen vermitt

Overview: Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche StudieCommodities tauchen häufig als Schlagworte auf, wenn von schwer differenzierbaren Leistungen die Rede ist. Trotz der hohen Verbreitung des Begriffs existiert jedoch kaum Klarheit über die Möglichkeiten und Ansatzpunkte ihrer Markendifferenzierung. Tim Bohmann erarbeitet im Rahmen der identitätsbasierten Markenführung ein detailliertes Verständnis von Commodities, auf dessen Basis er sechs commodity-spezifische Markendifferenzierungsansätze herleitet. Anhand einer empirischen Studie auf dem deutschen Tankstellenmarkt weist er nach, dass diese Ansätze

Overview: Written by a leading financial analyst, this new book provides a detailed overview of the new regulatory environment facing the financial industry. Whilst the 1980s and early 1990s focused on deregulation within the financial sector, today a key point of interest has become re-regulation - and in a global setting.978-1-349-41676-9978-0-333-97743-9

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Despite the long association of organohalogen compounds with human activities, nature is the producer of nearly 5,000 halogen-containing chemicals. Once dismissed as accidents of nature or isolation artifacts, organohalogen compounds represent an important and ever growing class of natural products, in many cases exhibiting exceptional biological activity. Since the last comprehensive review in 1996 (Vol. 68, this series), there have been discovered an additional 2,500 organochlorine, organobromine, and other organohalogen compounds. These natural or

Overview: In this timely and up-to-date book, the latest knowledge on neurological syndromes due to neurotoxicity of antineoplastic drugs is presented. The initial chapters discuss the following vital topics: - the importance of blood-brain barrier changes in cancer patients, - laboratory and clinical studies on the neurotoxicity of anticancer drugs, - and the role of cumulative toxicity of radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Clinical presentation and diagnosis of various neurological conditions related to antineoplastic chemotherapy are then also thoroughly discussed. Indispensable to the neu

Overview: The traveller to India is urged to visit that country‘s western shore with the Arabian Sea where, about 300 miles to the south of Bombay, an exceedingly lovely coast reaches the peak of its harmony at the erstwhile Portuguese enclave of Goa. The ambience of this alluring province is an exquisite balance of palm trees and rice fields, aged colonial homes -many still elegant and brightly painted -slowly being swallowed up by the exuberant tropical vegetation, incredible blossoms, colorful and courteous people and, deeper inland, some splendid examples of 17th and 18th century Portugues

Overview: These essays demonstrate the sweeping influence of the human nervous system on the rise of literature and sensibility in early modern Europe. The brain and nerves have usually been treated as narrow topics within the history of science and medicine. Now George Rousseau, an international authority on the relations of literature and medicine, demonstrates why a broader context is necessary. The nervous system was a crucial factor in the rise of recent civilization. More than any other body part, it holds the key to understanding how far back the strains and stresses of modern life - fa
