Overview: Includes supplementary material: The book focuses on the relations between small states and alliances. It is on why, how and under what conditions states engage in alliances. What are the benefits and costs of alliances? How are the benefits and costs of alliances allocated among their members? What determines who allies with whom? Can small states still pursue their own security interests within an alliance? Can they even become integral part of an alliance? Scholars, practitioners, policy-makers and advisors from several countries discuss these issues. They address historical, empi

Part

Overview: The inelastic response and residual mechanical properties acquired from most shock compressed solids are quite different from those acquired from quasi-static or moderate strain rates. For instance, the residual hardness of many shock compressed metals has been found to be considerably lower than those loaded under quasi-static conditions to the same maximum stress. However, the residual hardness of shock compressed metals is much higher than those loaded quasi-statically to the same total strain. These observations suggest that the deformation mechanisms active during inelastic defo

Overview: Highlights the expectations in terms of responsibility, transparency and ethics in business professionals.Evaluates the impact of movies on the behavior of key players in the business world.Provides sThis book discusses the possibility of corporate professionals—specifically accountants, bankers, and financiers—being influenced by the seventh art, i.e. cinema, and acting out fraudulent actions depicted in the cinematic world in the real life situations.  .It is widely known that real world scenarios influence cinema.

Overview: Methodological basis for computation of turbulent flows.Detailed overview over modern methods.Includes supplementary material: The simulation of technological and environmental flows is very important for many industrial developments. A major challenge related to their modeling is to involve the characteristic turbulence that appears in most of these flows. The traditional way to tackle this question is to use deterministic equations where the effects of turbulence are directly parametrized, i. e. , assumed as functions of the variables considered. However, this approach often become

Overview: Situates silence in the context of both theological legacies and contemporary philosophical debates.Offers a new, original take on four key literary/philosophical writers of the twentieth century.FormThis book discusses the elusive centrality of silence in modern literature and philosophy, focusing on the writing and theory of Jean-Luc Nancy and Roland Barthes, the prose of Samuel Beckett, and the poetry of Wallace Stevens. It suggests that silence is best understood according to two categories: apophasis and reticence. Apophasis is associated with theology, and relates to a silence
