Overview: In the spirit of communitarianism and dialogue between civilizations, this ambitious book seeks a political philosophy where a diversity of world-views can meet. The main objective of the book is to propose a theoretical basis for convergence and to explain how it can be built. After considering key positions in the current debate on political theory, the author offers a theoretical solution to the seeming impossibility of universalizing an ethics of caring and responsibility.978-1-349-52828-8978-1-4039-8024-3

Overview: This interdisciplinary examination of present-day identities and histories of the former Yugoslavia explores relationships with the social, political, cultural and historical ‘facts and fictions‘ that have marked the different parts of the region. It shows that while nationalism remains important other social dynamics also exert a strong influence.978-1-349-46683-2978-1-137-34614-8

Overview: Uses lifeworld analysis as a lens to reveal planning knowledge with regard to adaptation.Builds on Schön’s idea of “reflective practitioners”.Helps refine community-based adaptation models.Provides a .This book explores the planning knowledge that can be gleaned from the experiences of the urban poor, a group frequently affected by floods. Further, it examines the relationship between lifeworld analysis and adaptation planning through the sociology of knowledge, which plays a significant part in determining the adaptation pathway of the urban poor. The book brings together empirical

Overview: Provides a comprehensive overview of methods and applications.Covers developments in‘applications to water waves, celestial, and galactic dynamics.Features authoritative chapters from international le.This volume in the Encyclopedia of Complexity and Systems Science, Second Edition, is devoted to the fundamentals of Perturbation Theory (PT) as well as key applications areas such as Classical and Quantum Mechanics, Celestial Mechanics, and Molecular Dynamics.

Overview: Discusses the development of novel protective relaying algorithms using Mathematical Morphology (MM), a nonlinear signal processing technique derived from set theory and geometry.Includes supplementar.The basic operating principles of the most common types of protection relays have not changed for more than half a century. However, the calculations used to measure power system fault signals continue to cause problems with relay performance. As a result, there is a need for developing a next generation of protection relays which are more accurate, more reliable and faster than the con

Overview: Features approaches for leveraging PCK research in STEM learning across formal and informal settings.Combines a focus on STEM PCK research, case studies and applications in clinical environments.Inclu.This volume represents both recent research in pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), as well as emerging innovations in how PCK is applied in practice. The notion of “research to practice” is critical to validating how effectively PCK works within the clinic and how it can be used to improve STEM learning. ​As the need for more effectiv

Overview: Die vorliegende Arbeit wurde im Dezember 2009 an der Universität Ulm als Disser- tionsschrift angenommen. Ich möchte mich an dieser Stelle bei allen bedanken, die mich bei ihrer Anfertigung während der letzten zwei Jahre unterstützt haben und mir auf vielfältige Arten zur Seite standen. Zuerst bedanke ich mich bei meinem Doktorvater Prof. Dr. Frank Richter für die M- lichkeit, an seinem Institut meinem Interesse für Private Equity und Leveraged B- outs folgen zu können. Insbesondere möchte ich seine ständige Bereitschaft zur inhaltlichen Diskussion sowie den gewährten Freiraum bei de

Overview: Plastic coating is an important method of corrosion proctection.Gives the most advanced presentation of principles, realization and application of the books availableOne of the key problems of failure-free operation of machinery is prevention of corrosion. The global scale of modern production makes this problem even more critical. At the beginning of the 21st century industrial contami- tion and the corrosion-active nature of the environment reached a level such that corrosive damage of materials became commensurate with their prod- tion volume and expenditure on anticorrosion prote
