Es gibt kaum ein Ort auf diesem Planeten – vom Mount Everest Base Camp bis zur Antarktis –, der nicht in ein Objekt und Produkt möglicher touristischer Erfahrung transformiert wurde oder wird. In der globalen Praxis und im weltumspannenden sozioökonomischen System des modernen Massentourismus spiegeln sich wie in einem Brennglas die Ambiva

Overview: Das Hauptziel der Optimal Matching Analyse besteht darin, in komplexen zeitbezogenen Datensätzen typische Verlaufsmuster zu erkennen. Diese Technik wurde bislang zur Beschreibung von DNA-Sequenzen und Börsenkursen eingesetzt, besitzt aber auch ein vielversprechendes Analysepotential in den Sozialwissenschaften. Anhand eines Datensatzes mit Lebenslaufsinformationen werden alle Auswertungsschritte einer Optimal Matching Analyse dargestellt, besprochen und mit Programmbeispielen illustriert.978-3-8100-2604-0978-3-663-10955-6

Overview: Organisationstheorie an Giddens anschließendDie Analyse der Organisationsdynamik erfordert die Entwicklung einer Theorie, die den Akteurcharakter sowie die Prozessualität von Organisationen in den Mittelpunkt stellt und die prinzipielle Möglichkeit der Entstehung von Neuem einschließt. Felsch setzt auf den konstitutionstheoretisch erweiterten mikropolitischen Ansatz der Organisationsforschung, der für jede historisch-kontingente Analyse von Organisationsdynamik unentbehrlich ist. Mit Hilfe dieses Ansatzes werden Beschränkungen sowohl eines rational-choice-theoretisch basierten als au

It presents a detailed cross-section of patients across all age groups, with different etiologies of the disease and possible complications, to presen

Overview: Proposes new mechanisms for cavity-mediated optical cooling.Applications extend from the nanoscale to metre-sized mirrors.Nominated as an outstanding contribution by the University of SouthamptonThis thesis unifies the dissipative dynamics of an atom, particle or structure within an optical field that is influenced by the position of the atom, particle or structure itself. This allows the identification and exploration of the fundamental ‘mirror-mediated’ mechanisms of cavity-mediated cooling leading to the proposal of a range of new techniques based upon the same underlying principl

Overview: Explores the metaphor of silence found in psychoanalysis, philosophy, politics, sociology, psychology, music and art.Engages directly with the most up-to-date scholarship in the field of Lacanian psyc.This book promotes a Lacanian approach to silence, arguing that Lacanian psychoanalysis is distinctive for putting a high value on both silence and language. Unlike other disciplines and discourses the authors do not treat silence as a mystical-impossible beyond, at the cost of demoting the value of language and thought. Rather than treating silence with awe and wonder, this book puts s

Overview: Use of clinical case examples for additional rea-world perspective and teaching tools.Discussion of special populations within the pain medicine patient demographic.Addresses issues regarding an emerg.Opioid analgesics are among the most effective medications for pain management but are associated with serious and increasing public health problems, including abuse, addiction, and death from overdose. Currently, there is an opioid epidemic in the United States with the rate of prescription opioid-related overdose deaths quadrupling over the last 15 years. Pediatric patients are partic

Overview: The two principal oral diseases are tooth decay and gum disease. With appropriate knowledge and support from health care workers the pregnant or new mother can look after both herself and her new baby and ensure that tooth decay and gum disease are prevented. This book aims to give those who look after pregnant mothers and pre-school children the knowledge to give informed advice about the prevention and treatment of oral disease in pregnancy and infancy.

Multiple specialties are involved, including skull base neurosurgeon, oculoplastic ophthalmol

Overview: For humans, understanding a natural language sentence or discourse is so effortless that we hardly ever think about it. For machines, however, the task of interpreting natural language, especially grasping meaning beyond the literal content, has proven extremely difficult and requires a large amount of background knowledge. This book focuses on the interpretation of natural language with respect to specific domain knowledge captured in ontologies. The main contribution is an approach that puts ontologies at the center of the interpretation process. This means that ontologies not only

Overview: Since the publication of an article by G. DoETSCH in 1927 it has been known that the Laplace transform procedure is a reliable sub­ stitute for HEAVISIDE‘s operational calculus*. However, the Laplace transform procedure is unsatisfactory from several viewpoints (some of these will be mentioned in this preface); the most obvious defect: the procedure cannot be applied to functions of rapid growth (such as the 2 function tr-+-exp(t)). In 1949 JAN MIKUSINSKI indicated how the un­ necessary restrictions required by the Laplace transform can be avoided by a direct approach, thereby gainin

Overview: This volume and its companion volume includes the edited versions of the principal lectures and selected papers presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Optimization and Decision Support Systems in Civil Engineering. The Institute was held in the Department of Civil Engineering at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh from June 25th to July 6th 1989 and was attended by eighty participants from Universities and Research Institutes around the world. A number of practising civil and structural engineers also attended. The lectures and papers have been divided into two volumes to re

Overview: On Integration computer applications have by now entered almost all enterprises, but mostly in an uncoordinated way without long term integration plans or automation strategies. Departments introduced computing equipment and purchased or developed programs to support their department operations. This approach divided an enterprise into small and almost autonomous enterprises, each with the goal to deploy the computer to make their department and its associated activities work more efficiently. Thus many departments acquired computers, developed and installed automation systems and PC
