Overview: A unique insight into the essential factors causing the most common pathologies affecting the human foot..Reviews gait, muscle function and forces acting on the lower extremities during physical activ.This new book consolidates the current knowledge of lower extremity biomechanics and pathomechanics and makes this information relevant to the study of common foot and ankle pathologies. The content is presented in a language and format that allows the clinician to review current evidence explaining the etiology of these disorders in order to formulate effective treatment interventions.

Overview: The unsaturated zone is the medium through which pollutants move from the soil surface to groundwater. Polluting substances are subjected to complex physical, chemical and biological transformations while moving through the unsaturated zone and their displacement depends on the transport properties of the water-air­ porous medium system. Pollution caused by human activities, agriculture, and industry, has brought about a growing interest in the role of the unsaturated zone in groundwater pollution. Due to the complexity and the multidisciplinary nature of the subject, it is being inv

Overview: Populistische Parteien - Gefahr für die Demokratie?Als vor etwa zwanzig Jahren ein neuartiger Typus rechtspopulistischer Parteien in Westeuropa die politische Bühne betrat, war man geneigt, dies als ein kurzfristiges Protestphänomen abzutun, das früher oder später wieder verschwinden würde. Inzwischen finden sich solche Parteien in fast allen europäischen Ländern - auch in den neuen Demokratien Mittelosteuropas. Die meisten von ihnen haben sich in ihren Parteiensystemen dauerhaft etabliert; einige sind dank ihrer Stärke sogar in die Regierungen gelangt und konnten dadurch unmittelbar
