Overview: Publication in the field of economic sciences.Includes supplementary material: In a networked world which is characterized by interactive value creation, traditional organizational boundaries loose importance in favor of processes of distributed organizing. Therefore, thinking about and designing organizations requires going beyond designing hierarchical structures and processes ex-ante, but creating systems allowing for finding adaptive solutions ex-post. This book combines two perspectives: organizing and information technology. On the one hand, it offers deep theoretical insight i

After a brief introduction on the subsequent development in all three fields over the spacecraft engineering phases each of the main topis is treated in depth in a separate p

Overview: Provides a thorough re-examination of H. Driesch‘s "Vitalism".Includes new information on formerly unknown histories of Vitalism.Helps comprehend the major doctrines of vitalism in the history of scie.This book presents a historico-logical study of vitalism. It begins by uncovering previously unknown doctrines of vitalism from the history of science—encompassing biological, physical, and social sciences—and then subjects these doctrines to a thorough logical analysis. Through this process, the book offers a unified conceptual framework to understand the major doctrines of vitalism in

Overview: This first-ever book on oligodeoxynucleotides describes in detail the new antisense approach to chemotherapy. It is written by world experts, covers all areas of current knowledge and includes new results. The principle of the antisense approach is that an antisense mRNA base sequence will bind to its target mRNA base sequence and thus bring about the selective inhibition of gene expression. The antisense approach is important in general in understanding gene function, and more specifically as a potential basis for new drugs, notably against cancer and viral genes.

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Twenty-five years ago, Earl R. Stadtman, PhD discovered that specific enzymes regulating metabolism can be inactivated by oxidation [1]. He later showed that age-related oxidative modification contributes, at least in part, to age-related loss of function of the enzymes [2, 3]. Dr. Stadtman broke the ground for a new field of study to discover how oxidative stress contributes in significant ways to age-related cellular dysfunction and protein accumulation and that oxidation in the aging brain influences Alzheimer’s disease, ischemia-reperfusion injury

Overview: 1.1. Scope of the Book This book is a contribution to the area of "dynamic models of the firm". The motivation for this kind of research is the following: Empirical studies (e.g. Albach (1976)) have shown that the development of the firm over time can be divided into different stages. such as growth. stationarity and contraction. In order to understand and evaluate these stages in a proper way. it is important to develop a suitable theoretical framework. To that end. economists have applied dynamic mathematical techniques. such as optimal control theory. calculus of variations and dy
