Overview: Tropical climates, which occur between 23°30‘N and S latitude (Jacob 1988), encompass a wide variety of plant communities (Hartshorn 1983, 1988), many of which are diverse in their woody floras. Within this geographic region, temperature and the amount and seasonality of rainfall define habitat types (UNESCO 1978). The F AO has estimated that there 1 are about 19 million km of potentially forested area in the global tropics, of which 58% were estimated to still be in closed forest in the mid-1970s (Sommers 1976; UNESCO 1978). Of this potentially forested region, 42% is categorized as

Overview: The ageing, financial and labour market challenges facing theold age pension systems of the member states of the European Union arewell known. Those who cast doubt on the ability of the present systemof pension provision - at least to the extent that it ispay-as-you-go financed - to cope with the problems posed bythese challenges are getting more vociferous. Increasingly there arecalls for pay-as-you-go systems to be cut back and for funded systemsto be expanded. .This book contests the view that funding is the answer.

Overview: Welche Funktionen erfüllen Parlamente?Dieser Band setzt die in ‘Parlamente und ihre Symbolik‘ (Westdeutscher Verlag 2001) begonnene ‘institutionelle Analyse‘ von Vertretungskörperschaften fort.

Overview: This volume contains selected papers for the Parcella ‘88, the Fourth International Workshop on "Parallel Processing by Cellular Automata and Arrays" held in Berlin from October 17 to 21, 1988. The profile of the Parcella workshop series is focused on problems of processing by regular structures, i.e. their "flexibilization" or adapting to "irregular" algorithms and, closely related to this, on the "regularization" of algorithms for their embedding into regular structures. It seems that these problems will have an increasing priority within the list of central problems in paralleliza

Overview: Living Nature, not dull Art Shall plan my ways and rule my heart -Cardinal Newman Nature and Art 1868 One of the ineluctable consequences of growth in any field of science is that subjects of inquiry once established tend to give birth to subsubjects and that the subsubjects once established will in time undergo further mitotic division. Not so many years ago, problems surrounding the ietus and newly born infant lay in a realm almost to be described as a "no-man‘s land." Obstetricians properly gave major consideration to understanding and learning about processes and disorders concer
