Overview: In 2004 the Japanese economy was in a gravely depressed state, with little growth for nearly a decade. However, it would be wrong to call this period ‘the lost decade‘ as many do. A better approach is to examine how a dynamic society, progressive in ways different from those which only generate growth in the GNP, has been built. This new economy pursues a new objective through new approaches, pursuing quality of life rather than raising the material standards of living.978-1-349-52476-1978-0-230-59729-7

Overview: .Potentiality, Entanglement and Passion-at-a-Distance. is abook for theoretical physicists and philosophers of modern physics. Ittreats a puzzling and provocative aspect of recent quantum physics:the apparent interaction of certain physical events that cannot shareany causal connection. These are said to be `entangled‘ in some way,but an explanation remains elusive. Abner Shimony - to whom thebook is dedicated - and others suggest the need to revive thecategory of what may be seen as a metaphysical potentiality.

Overview: According to Schopenhauer problems are usually passing through three stages: - in the first stage they are ignored or just smiled at, - in the second stage they are fought, and in the third stage they are considered to be self-evident, just taken for granted. Whereas digital subtraction angiography (DSA) has obviously reached stage three of that scale, i.e. routine use in radiology, digital angiocardiography, in particular imaging the heart and coronary circulation, is still on its way to the final goal: the filmless heart catheterization laboratory for all invasive and interventiona

Overview: That man is a social being is almost axiomatic. Our interpersonal relation­ ships can be sources of the most rewarding or the most painful of human experiences. To a large measure our accomplishments in life depend on the facility with which we interact with others-our social skill. The acquisition of social skills is, of course, a natural part of the overall socialization process. However, in many instances it becomes necessary or desirable to develop further an individual‘s social facilities. Such skill development is the topic of this book. Two major goals were kept in mind in the
