Overview: In der sozial- und rechtswissenschaftlichen Forschung werden privatrechtlich aufgestellte Normen und Regeln bislang als "technische Normen" oder "Regeln der Technik" bezeichnet. Mit diesen Begriffen ist die Vorstellung verbunden, sie seien nicht ausschließlich technisch-wissenschaftlich begründet, sondern beinhalteten als "soziale Normen" auch gesellschaftliche Zielsetzungen und Wertbezüge...Zhijia Zhou untersucht die Erstellung von Immissionsrichtlinien zur Luftreinhaltung in Deutschland und zeigt, dass diese Richtlinien nicht dem Typus "Regeln der Technik" zuzuordnen, sondern als "

Overview: The dawn of neurosurgery can be traced back to the first description preserved in the Edwin Smith papyrus‘ (3000 Be) which dealt with head and spinal injury. In the course of 5000 years, since the first record in Egypt, advances in lifestyle and technology have brought about our modern civilized society. However, as a result of civilization, currently the total number of severe head injuries worldwide is believed to exceed 10000000 and the number of severe spinal injuries is believed to be more than 75 000 each year. This means that central nervous system injury is not only the oldes

Overview: Introduction to the theory of rigid body dynamics.Systematic approach for deriving model equations.Enables the reader to handle modern general purpose rigid body programs.Includes supplementary materiThe dynamics of mechanical rigid-body mechanisms is a highly developed discipline. The model equations that apply to the tremendous variety of ap­ plications of rigid-body systems in industrial practice are based on just a few basic laws of, for example, Newton, Euler, or Lagrange. These basic laws can be written in an extremely compact, symmetrical, and esthetic form, simple enough to b

Overview: Sandra Diehl analysiert mithilfe der Diary-Methode den allgemeinen Einfluss von medialen und realen Faktoren auf das Kaufentscheidungsverhalten. Des Weiteren untersucht sie anhand eines experimentellen Designs, ob und inwieweit Werbung spätere Produkterprobungen prägen kann bzw. ob Werbung in der Lage ist, nach einer realen Produkterfahrung noch einen Einfluss auf die Produkteinstellung der KonsumentInnen auszuüben. Die Autorin leitet umfangreiche strategische und operative Handlungsempfehlungen ab, die dazu beitragen, Cross-Media-Werbestrategien in Kombination mit realen Produkterfa

Overview: Carves a new path in the debate on migration, international relations and asylum.Emphasises the difference between protection and assistance.Provides a special focus on migration and protection in ItaThis book provides a critical account of the concept of international protection. The author questions the boundaries between protection and assistance, and challenges the dominant focus on state sovereignty.
