Overview: Are we living in a golden age? It is now more than half a century that Einstein and Heisenberg have given us the theories of relativity and of quantum mechanics, but the great challenge of 20th century science remains unre­ solved: to assemble these building blocks into a fundamental theory of matter. And yet, for anyone watching the interplay of mathematics and theoretical physics to-day, developing symbiotically through the stimulus of a lively, even essential interdisciplinary dia­ logue, this is a time of fascination and great satisfaction. It is also a time of gratitude to those

Overview: A research network has examined how quality management is implemented in small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in Germany, Finland, Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Sweden and the United Kingdom. The research has taken place within the framework of the Leonoardo Da Vinci pogramme. Managers of SMEs in the metalworking and food processing industries were asked what the consequences of the implementation of quality management were for the qualification needs of employees. This book presents the survey results as two sector studies. Analysed are competitive and specialisation tendencies of

Overview: Die wachsende Bedeutung der Ressource „Wissen“ und von IT-basierten Wisse- managementsystemen ist heute in aller Munde. Es gibt kaum ein größeres Unt- nehmen, das sich nicht in der einen oder anderen Form mit dem Management von Wissen beschäftigen würde. Der anfänglich sehr großen Begeisterung für dieses neue Gebiet sowohl in der Wissenschaft wie auch in der Praxis folgte eine gewisse Ernüchterung. Weder ließ sich die Thematik wissenschaftlich so rasch greifen, noch erwies sich eine praktische Anwendung als so unkompliziert wie anfangs gedacht. Als eines der Hauptprobleme dieses Gebi

It assumes a minimal amount of technical background and it is intended to be accessible to a wide audience including students of theoretical and experimental high energy physics, condensed matter, optical, atomic, nuclear and gravitational physics and astrophysics. It

Overview: This volume of papers grew out of a research project on "Cross-Linguistic Quantification" originated by Emmon Bach, Angelika Kratzer and Barbara Partee in 1987 at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, and supported by National Science Foundation Grant BNS 871999. The publication also reflects directly or indirectly several other related activ­ ities. Bach, Kratzer, and Partee organized a two-evening symposium on cross-linguistic quantification at the 1988 Annual Meeting of the Linguistic Society of America in New Orleans (held without financial support) in order to bring the pr

Overview: Introduces the concept of "bad reading" as a means of describing the relationship between affect theory, queer theory, and the act of reading.Contextualizes "bad reading" within an analysis of postwarThis volume argues that postwar writers queer the affective relations of reading through experiments with literary form. Tyler Bradway conceptualizes “bad reading” as an affective politics that stimulates queer relations of erotic and political belonging in the event of reading. These incipiently social relations press back against legal, economic, and discursive forces that reduce queer

Overview: l volume tratteggia i concetti,e le intuizioni, che sono stati alla base di questi differenti approcci e la loro relativa evoluzione nel corso dei secoli.Facendo uso di ampia aneddotica, il volume proNel giugno del 1783 i fratelli Montgolfier aprirono la via delle nuvole con un mezzo “più leggero dell’aria”, la mongolfiera; 120 anni dopo, altri due fratelli, Wilbur e Orville Wright, conquistarono la terza dimensione con un mezzo “più pensate dell’aria”, l’aeroplano. Due modi differenti per raggiungere quello che Wilbur definì “il più grande desiderio dell’umanità”: volare.In questa b

Overview: Advances in the field of signal processing, nonlinear dynamics, statistics, and optimization theory, combined with marked improvement in instrumenta­ tion and development of computers systems, have made it possible to apply the power of mathematics to the task of understanding the human brain. This verita­ ble revolution already has resulted in widespread availability of high resolution neuroimaging devices in clinical as well as research settings. Breakthroughs in functional imaging are not far behind. Mathematical tech­ niques developed for the study of complex nonlinear systems an

Overview: The origin of this book lies in a time before one of the authors (J. O‘M. B.) left the University of Pennsylvania bound for the Flinders University. His collaboration with Dennis Matthews at the University of Pennsylvania had contributed a singular experimental datum to the quantum theory of elec­ trode processes: the variation of the separation factor with potential, which could only be interpreted in terms of a quantum theory of electrode kinetics. The authors came together as a result of grad~ate work of one of them (S. U. M. K.) on the quantum mechanics and photo aspects of elec­

Overview: Deals with a hot topic in theoretical physics.Most advanced one on the Nobel Prize in Chemistry of 1999.Includes supplementary material: Quantal density functional theory (Q-DFT) is a new local effective potential energy theory of the electronic structure of matter. It is a description in terms of classical fields that pervade all space, and their quantal sources. The fields, which are explicitly defined, are separately representative of the many-body electron correlations present in such a description, namely, those due to the Pauli exclusion principle, Coulomb repulsion, correlatio
