Overview: The discovery of fullerenes, species belonging to the electronodeficient polyalkenes with weakly conjugated double bonds, has opened novel opportunities for the radical chemistry. Pioneering study in this field was performed by P. J. Krusic, E. Wasserman, P. N. Keizer, J. R. Morton, and K. F. Preston (Science, 1991, 254, 1184). The fullerenyl radical adducts formed via addition of atoms or free radicals to fullerenes have no analogs in organic chemistry. In fact, radicals in which the unpaired electrons are delocalized over the surface of a sphere or ellipsoid have never been studied

Overview: This volume of the series Advances in Risk Analysis consists of papers presented at the 1988 Annual Meeting of the Society for Risk Analysis, which was held October 30 through November 2 at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC. The papers span the gamut of the increasing number of risk assessment topics addressed by the Society since it held its fIrst annual meeting in June 1981, also in Washington DC. Organized to promote interdisciplinary analyses, the Society approaches risks from three broad perspectives: (1) the impact of various risks on the health of the world‘s populations a

Overview: In recent years, tremendous research has been devoted to thedesign of database systems for real-time applications, calledreal-time database systems (RTDBS), where transactions are associatedwith deadlines on their completion times, and some of the data objectsin the database are associated with temporal constraints on theirvalidity. Examples of important applications of RTDBS include stocktrading systems, navigation systems and computer integratedmanufacturing. .Different transaction scheduling algorithms and concurrency controlprotocols have been proposed to satisfy transaction timi

Overview: In a world dominated by the values of capitalism and science this book explains the salient fact and truth for humans being in the world: conscious experience and understanding of life itselfThe author has two goals: 1) to reintroduce humanity to the humanities, and 2) to present a foundation constructed in the reality of the natural languages upon which the studies of human thought and behavior can be successfully understood and explained.In the first section of the book the effects of language upon human behavior are illustrated. It is argued that as water is to fish, language is t

Overview: This multiauthored textbook is directed to the psychiatric resident and other professionals who are interested in the issues, strategies, and methods of psychiatric research. Although the field of psychiatry has not attained the scientific rigor and clinical sophistication of some of its sister disciplines in the medical arena, considerable progress has been made in the last decade or two, and a full understanding of the types of articles that now appear in such publications as the American Journal of Psychiatry, the Archives of General Psychi­ atry, and the Journal of the American A

Overview: Ein neuer Band aus der Reihe Springer Essentials.Zentrale Erfolgsfaktoren für gutes Reputationsmanagement - am Beispiel Medical Care.Includes supplementary material: Anabel Ternès und Christopher Runge zeigen am Beispiel Medical Care, dass es sich auszahlt, in eine hohe Reputation zu investieren. Unternehmen mit einem guten Ansehen können höhere Preise verlangen, Kunden gewinnen und binden, die besten Mitarbeiter für sich gewinnen und insbesondere in Krisenzeiten von ihrer Reputation als immateriellem Wert als Wettbewerbsvorteil zehren. Voraussetzung hierfür ist ein systematisches, p

Overview: This collection of essays examines how modern public spheres reflect and mask - often both simultaneously - discourses of order, contests for hegemony, and techniques of power in the Muslim world. It builds on scholarship that re-imagines theories and practices of the public in modern and contemporary societies. While examining disparate time periods and locations, each contributor views modern and contemporary public spheres as crucial to the functioning, and understanding, of political and societal power in Muslim majority countries.978-1-349-53082-3978-1-4039-7924-7Series ISSN 294

Overview: Die Anstöße zum Vorhaben, ein Buch wie das vorliegende zu realisieren, stammen aus der Arbeit mit Studenten am Institut für Politische Wissenschaft an der Universität Ham­ burg. Studentische Schwierigkeiten eines stärker analysierenden statt eher moralisierenden Zugangs auf "die Politik" als dem allgemeinen Gegenstand unserer Disziplin, die es mit wissenschaftlichen Fragestellungen, Analysekonzepten und Vorgehensweisen zu untersu­ chen gilt, gibt es aber, wie wir aus Beratungsgesprächen mit Studienortwechslern zu wis­ sen meinen, nicht bloß an unserer Hochschule. Nur auf der Grundlag

Overview: This book reassesses the role of Russian Montparnasse writers in the articulation of transnational modernism generated by exile. Examining their production from a comparative perspective, it demonstrates that their response to urban modernity transcended the Russian master narrative and resonated with broader aesthetic trends in interwar Europe.978-1-137-50801-0Series ISSN 2634-6478 Series E-ISSN 2634-6486
