Overview: We are proud to present the following collection of papers on Public Governance and Leadership. The idea behind this book goes back many years. It represents the culmination of a 15-year-long exchange between academics at German, Australian and British universities. Those deliberations inspired us to make Public Governance and Leadership the focus of this collection. Our challenge has been to identify and to bring together a group of internationally well known and renowned scholars to work on a variety of different aspects of this theme. Therefore, our thanks must first go to our con

Overview: Pierre Grisvard, one of the most distinguished French mathematicians, died on April 22, 1994. A Conference was held in November 1994 out of which grew the invited articles contained in this volume. All of the papers are related to functional analysis applied to partial differential equations, which was Grisvard‘s specialty. Indeed his knowledge of this area was extremely broad. He began his career as one of the very first students of Jacques Louis Lions, and in 1965, he presented his "State Thesis" on interpolation spaces, using in particular, spectral theory for linear operators in

Overview: This volume contains the Proceedings of the Serono Symposium on Pre­ implantation Embryo Development, held in Newton, Massachusetts, in 1991. The idea for the symposium grew out of the 1989 Serono Symposium on Fertilization in Mammals* at which preimplantation development was the predominant suggestion for a follow-up topic. This was indeed a timely subject in view of the recent resurgence of interest in this funda­ mental phase of embryogenesis and its relevance to basic research and applied fertility studies in humans, food-producing animals, and endangered species. The symposium b

Overview: Eine mathematikdidaktische Studie.Includes supplementary material: .Includes supplementary material: .Anna-Christin Söhling beschreibt die Erkenntnisgewinnung während des Problemlöseprozesses durch Probieren und Aufdecken von Irrtümern. Dabei nutzt sie das Begriffsnetz aus Deduktion, Abduktion und Induktion nach Peirce (1903) und Meyer (2007). Mathematische Problemlöseprozesse zeichnen sich oft durch Probieren und irrtumbehaftete Herangehensweisen aus. Dennoch scheinen Schülerinnen und Schüler nicht nur durch reinen Zufall zu einer Lösung zu kommen. Neben der philosophisch-logischen

Overview: v Geleitwort Ohne jeden Zweifel gehört die Analyse der individuellen Wahrnehmung und Beurteilung von Preisen zu den am wenigsten beachteten Phänomenen im Marketing. Erkenntnisse über die Preisbildung werden zumeist aus mikroökonomischen Studien gewonnen, denen jedoch die Schwierigkeit zu Grunde liegt, daß restriktive Annahmen über individuelles Verhalten die Aussagekraft der erzielten Ergebnisse einschränken. Insbesondere fallt auf, daß die Spezifikation von hypothetischen Konstrukten zur Erlangung eines tieferen Verständnisses über interessierende Erscheinungen bislang nahezu vernac
