Overview: From the President of the Research Society on Alcoholism In the last decade research concerning the causes and consequences of alcohol abuse and alcoholism has come of age. We have witnessed a plethora of sci­ entific findings that have shed light on some of the actions of alcohol at the molecular level. Interesting new data have been forthcoming on the complexi­ ties of the development of tolerance to alcohol. It is becoming increasingly appropriate to consider that tolerance to alcohol involves biological as well as psychological factors. New scientific insights have been gained co

Overview: Bei Delegation von Entscheidungen stellt sich für die delegierende Instanz das Problem, positive Anreize zu gewähren, bei denen der Entscheidungsträger genau dann persönliche Vorteile erzielt, wenn er im Sinne der Instanz entscheidet. Da es nicht sinnvoll ist, Anreizsysteme zu etablieren, die auf nicht oder nur schwer beobachtbaren Bemessungsgrundlagen beruhen, und da Anreizsysteme in der Regel bei unsicheren Erwartungen über ihre Konsequenzen konzipiert werden müssen, besteht zwischen Risiko, Anreiz und Kontrolle ein enger Zusammenhang, der in der Arbeit untersucht werden soll. Im V

Overview: Publication in the field of economic science.Includes supplementary material: The book is related to the handling of product and service failures in business-to-business markets. The concept of “recovery management” embraces all activities of seller firms to effectively handle failure situations in order to restore customer satisfaction and attain customer retention. Since prior research on recovery management has been mostly related to business-to-consumer (B2C) markets and business-to-business markets (B2B) reflect significantly different characteristics, a context-specific approac

Overview: First book in the field of membrane transport with a focus on the regulation of membrane functions rather than on the mechanics.Includes supplementary material: .This book deals with the molecular mechanisms of membrane trafficking, a central eukaryotic cell biological process. In the post-genomic era many essential molecules involved in intracellular membrane/protein transport are emerging. A huge task now is to compile the molecular networks that govern these processes. Understanding of regulatory processes and participating molecules are likely to reveal global cellular regulatory

Overview: Why do currency crises happen? What conditions set the stage for such a crisis? How severe will it be? When will it happen? This book answers these questions, illustrating the points by examining the exchange rate realignments of the European Monetary System. It also shows how balancing the tension between domestic and international politics plays a vital part in a government‘s willingness to uphold its exchange rate commitments. Michele Chang pays particular attention to the role of domestic elections, since these may prevent governments from credibly committing to a fixed exchange

Overview: Develops the concepts of reification from biologically based premises.Bridges the gap between symbolic AI and reactive robotics.The reification engines utilize the concept of a rough ontology for knowThis work was created from the statement “But, all you have to do is make the robot recognize its surroundings. Salamanders do it, and how complex are they?” Little did we know what a long path was started with those simple words. This book is a small step on that path, which we hope leads to robots that can serve as true and useful assistants to humans. At the least, we hope for some he

Overview: Reflects received view in empirical science that there is something we can call ‘reality‘ for an agent, and that agents use ‘representations‘ in their interactions with the environment.Examines what c.This book enriches our views on representation and deepens our understanding of its different aspects. It arises out of several years of dialog between the editors and the authors, an interdisciplinary team of highly experienced researchers, and it reflects the best contemporary view of representation and reality in humans, other living beings, and intelligent machines. . Structured int

Overview: In Rwanda‘s Genocide , Kingsley Moghalu provides an engrossing account and analysis of the international political brinkmanship embedded in the quest for international justice for Rwanda‘s genocide. He takes us behind the scenes to the political and strategic factors that shaped a path-breaking war crimes tribunal and demonstrates why the trials at Arusha, like Nuremberg, Tokyo, and the Hague, are more than just prosecutions of culprits, but also politics by other means. This is the first serious book on the politics of justice for Rwanda‘s genocide. Moghalu tells this gripping story

Overview: Over the past decade, advances in molecular biology have provided the impetus for a resurgence of interest in plant metabolism. At a general level, the potential for modifying the quantity or quality of harvestable crop products through genetic manipulation has provided an agronomic rationale for seeking a greater understanding of primary plant metabolism and its regulation. Moreover, the now facile techniques for transformation of many plant species and the consequential capacity to manipulate the amounts of specific individual enzymes within specific cell types provides an exciting
