Overview: Written by experts, Gives a modern approach, Comprehensive in ScopeFor the first time, leading scholars in Religious Education and Citizenship Education reflect upon ‘the making of’ of their theoretical framework, in honour of Siebren Miedema. In this Liber Amicorum, in retrospect these scholars recognize, implicitly or more explicitly, ‘critical incidents’ and they honour ‘critical persons’ for the decisive voice each of them had in the articulation of the theoretical frame of reference the scholars developed in the field of pedagogy of religion(s) and citizenship education. Or, to

Overview: .This book contains the refereed contributions from the 42nd annual meeting of ISOTT. The annual meetings of ISOTT bring together scientists from various fields (medicine, physiology, mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, etc.) in a unique international forum. ISOTT conferences are a place where an atmosphere of interaction is created, where many questions are asked after each presentation and lively discussions occur at a high scientific level. This vivid interaction is the main motivation for members to participate and gain new ideas and knowledge in the broad fiel

Overview: Provides clarity on management cybernetics, overarching dynamics of living systemsCybernetics is a science for understanding and systematically using information. As a subject of cybernetics, the brand is becoming increasingly important, especially in times of acceleration and infinite, global commodity markets. Only those who are able to preserve their patterns in the age of change and adapt them again and again to the requirements of the times will survive. Neither customer data nor creative ideas help here, but a sound knowledge of the structural functioning of all living beings -

Overview: Täglich bewegen wir uns in bekannten und fremden Raumkonstellationen. Bekannte Wege müssen wiedergefunden, neue entdeckt werden. Voraussetzung dafür ist das Kennenlernen verschiedener Orte, Objekte und Richtungen und ihre Speicherung und Repräsentation im Gedächtnis...Anhand aktueller Studien zur Raumkognition und auf experimenteller Grundlage untersucht Gabriele Janzen das komplexe Zusammenwirken von Orts- und Richtungsinformationen im räumlichen Gedächtnis. Ein wichtiges Ergebnis ihrer Analyse ist die Erkenntnis, dass die Wegrichtung nur über funktional bedeutsame Orte wie Kreuzung
