Overview: Advances research on key aspects and themes related to identity in non-Western contexts.Examines identity throughout different life stages, such as adolescents, youth, emerging adults, and adults.Cons.Identity is a construct strongly rooted and still predominantly studied in Western (or WEIRD; Western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic) contexts (e.g., North American and Western European). Only recently has there been more of a conscious effort to study identity in non-Western (or non-WEIRD) contexts. This edited volume investigates identity from primarily a non-Western

Overview: Just fifty years ago Julian Huxley, the biologist grandson of Thomas Henry Huxley, published a book which easily could be seen to represent the prevail­ ing outlook among young scientists of the day: If I were a Dictator (1934). The outlook is optimistic, the tone playfully rational, the intent clear - allow science a free hand and through rational planning it could bring order out of the surrounding social chaos. He complained, however: At the moment, science is for most part either an intellectual luxury or the paid servant of capitalist industry or the nationalist state. When it a

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding PhD thesis by Tsinghua University.Reports on important advances in the study of ferroelectric materials.Extends the applications of PMN-PT single crystals into areas other .This book explores the applications of ferroelectric materials in information technology by developing several prototype devices based on Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) single crystals. It describes how an optothermal field-effect transistor (FET) was constructed on the PMN-26PT single crystal, using a MoS2 monolayer as the channel semiconductor material. This fusion of pyroelectric e

Overview: Special issue on "Canons of Form-Making" to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the birth of Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio.Guest edited by Stephen R. Wassell, Palladio scholar and author of "An.This volume features a collection of papers dedicated to "Canons of Form-Making", in honor of the 500th anniversary of the birth of architect Andrea Palladio (1508-1580). Theorist as well as practitioner, Palladio‘s architecture was based on well-defined canons that he had gleaned from studying the treatises as well as the remains of architecture from antiquity. Palladio himself left to

Overview: . Die ökologische und soziale Verantwortung von Unternehmen ist schon seit Jahrzehnten Thema der Weltpolitik. Die EU stärkte 2023 mit dem Inkrafttreten der Corporate Social Reporting Directive die Bedeutung der nicht-finanziellen Berichterstattung. Auch am Kapitalmarkt steigt das Interesse an nachhaltigen Unternehmen. Die ökonomische, ökologische und die soziale Dimension der unternehmerischen Nachhaltigkeit können jedoch nicht immer in Einklang gebracht werden. Die unternehmerische Realität ist durch Zielkonflikte zwischen den drei Dimensionen geprägt. Die Forschung konnte bisher ka
