Overview: This text shows how without knowing anything about background, context, and identities of participants, the institutional situation, social relations, and probable identities can be derived based onlyIn qualitative research, one can often hear the statement that research results are just (social) constructions. In criminal cases and in court hearings, we tend to expect that the true sequence of events has to be found rather than just any story. Here the author shows that qualitative social research can be conducted in the manner of police work or court proceedings. He does so by exhi

Overview: Compares and identifies a hierarchy of deviance toward relevant out-groups.Focuses on relationships in which there are clear group differences.Studies in marketing, psychology, political science, and .This interdisciplinary book extends knowledge by comparing rivalry and rival group behavior in sport within areas outside of sport, such as consumer brands, political discourse, and product/service preferences.

Overview: Ein zentraler Problemkreis der neueren KI-Forschung ist die Repräsentation des Gegenständlichen. Insbesondere stellt sich die Frage, wie räumliche Konstellationen zu repräsentieren und zu verarbeiten sind. Primäres Ziel des vorliegenden Bandes ist es, einen Überblick über die aktuelle Forschung im Bereich von Repräsentation und Verarbeitung räumlichen Wissens zu geben. Die Beiträge des Bandes decken das gesamte Spektrum der kognitionsorientierten KI-Forschung ab, von Arbeiten, die, in der Tradition der Kybernetik bzw. Neurophysiologie stehend, Aspekte der Raumorientierung in biologis

Overview: Includes the concepts of humanity versus speciesism.Explores the controversy with respect to the use of nonhuman primates.Looks at the mismatch between micro-motives and macro-behaviorThis work challenges the current reliance on "The Three R‘s" or Replacement, Reduction and Refinement which direct most animal research in the behavioral sciences. The author argues that these principles that were developed in the 1950‘s to guide the use of animals in research studies are outdated. He suggests that the notions of refinement and reduction are often ill-defined and can be useful only in c

Overview: This book takes the reader through the complete weathering cycle, from the continents to the oceans, from the perspective of modern radiogenic isotope geochemistry. Topics include surface weathering, fluvial processes, environmental pollution, oceanography and paleoceanography, sedimentary mineral diagenesis and radiometric dating, thus bridging the gap between processes acting on the Earth today and the geological record. Extensive use is made of carefully selected case studies, both pioneering and state-of-the-art. This book enables the reader to critically assess previous work fro
