Overview: GENERAL INTRODUCTION This study of the concept of health is an attempt to combine central ideas in modern philosophy of medicine with certain results from analytical action theory. What emerges from the study is a concept of health based on an action-theoretic foundation. A person‘s health is characterized as his ability to achieve his vital goals. The general conception is not new. This study has been inspired by a number of scholars, both ancient and modern. The most important influences from the latter have been those of Georges Canguilhem, H. Tristram Engelhardt Jr. , Caroline Wh

Overview: This book presents waste as an aesthetic category that introduces an arsy-versy world where detritus is precious. This aesthetic is applied in the second part to etymology, poking through the ‘paternal dungheaps‘ of words, and tracing their origins not to Eden but to Babel, puns, and word play.978-0-230-10039-8978-0-230-10906-3Series ISSN 2945-5936 Series E-ISSN 2945-5944

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This book provides a physics-oriented introduction to organogels with a comparison to polymer thermoreversible gels whenever relevant. The past decade has seen the development of a wide variety of newly-synthesized molecules that can spontaneously self-assemble or crystallize from their organic or aqueous solutions to produce fibrillar networks, namely organogels, with potential applications in organic electronics, light harvesting, bio-imaging, non-linear optics, and the like. This compact volume presents a detailed outlook of these novel molecular s

Overview: This volume covers the latest developments in optical imaging of the brain which is becoming an increasingly important functional neuroimaging method. Optical intrinsic signals offer unrivaled temporal and spatial resolution of functional measurements of the exposed brain cortex in animals and humans. Near-infrared spectroscopy and imaging ap­ proaches permit the noninvasive functional assessment of the human brain at bedside. Main advantages of these optical techniques are the biochemical specificity of the meas­ urements and the potential of measuring correlates of intracellular an

Overview: Birthe Hoffmann widerlegt aus einer wirkungsästhetischen Perspektive die in der Forschung gängige These, Grillparzer verteidige in seinen Werken eine überindividuelle Ordnung gegen die subjektivistischen Tendenzen seiner Zeit.In einer phänomenologisch fundierten Analyse von $Der arme Spielmann$, $König Ottokars Glück und Ende$ und $Ein Bruderzwist in Habsburg$ zeigt die Autorin Textstrategien auf, die Ordnungspostulate und Ideologien, darunter das Herrscherkonzept der Habsburger, dekonstruieren. In den Werken Grillparzers werden so aus der Perspektive der Opfer christliche Imperative

Overview: It was noted in the preface of the book "Inequalities Involving Functions and Their Integrals and Derivatives", Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1991, by D.S. Mitrinovic, J.E. Pecaric and A.M. Fink; since the writing of the classical book by Hardy, Littlewood and Polya (1934), the subject of differential and integral inequalities has grown by about 800%. Ten years on, we can confidently assert that this growth will increase even more significantly. Twenty pages of Chapter XV in the above mentioned book are devoted to integral inequalities involving functions with bounded derivatives, or,
