Overview: An invaluable reference for researchers interested in vibratory communication or in the evolution of communication.A landmark book for historians of science.Richly illustrated.Includes supplementary m.This volume explains the key ideas, questions and methods involved in studying the hidden world of vibrational communication in animals. The authors dispel the notion that this form of communication is difficult to study and show how vibrational signaling is a key to social interactions in species that live in contact with a substrate, whether it be a grassy lawn, a rippling stream or a

Overview: Unbeirrt hält auch diese Sammlung soziologischer Studien an dem Titel "Aufklä­ rung" fest. Wer die soziologische Literatur des letzten Jahrzehnts soziologisch, das heißt mit Sinn für Realität betrachtet, wird wenig finden, was diesen Anspruch rechtfertigen könnte. Er ist stärker umstritten als je zuvor. Die Dreieinigkeit von Aufklärung, Vernunft und Politik hat keinen Ankerpunkt in der Realität gefunden. Sie hatte ganz und gar auf Zukunft gesetzt und kontrafaktisch auf ihre eigene Normativität. So groß bemessene Gesten vermögen jedoch kaum noch zu überzeugen. Wie sollte man heute ang

Overview: Die Europapolitik der britischen, deutschen und französischen Sozialdemokratie im VergleichWer und was bestimmt die Europapolitik einer Partei? Dieser Frage geht Christian Krell auf den Grund.

Er zeigt Übereinstimmungen, aber auch deutliche Unterschiede auf, besonders zwischen den europabezogenen Integrationsstrategien der drei Parteien. In einer aufwändigen Analyse arbeitet er heraus, was s

Overview: The present volume describes cyclic sulfur-nitrogen compounds whose ring system con­ tains one or two other types of atoms in addition to sulfur and nitrogen. At least one sulfur atom can be regarded as having oxidation number IV in one resonance structure. That means the sulfur in fact has an oxidation number higher than 11 and lower than VI. The volume continues "Sulfur-Nitrogen Compounds" Part 2, in which the binary sulfur(lV)-nitrogen ring systems are described. Compounds with the same "hetero atom" in the sulfur-nitrogen ring are arranged in groups. Within a group the compounds

Overview: Stereotypes continue to dominate contemporary Anglo-German relations. This volume brings together views from psychology, history, cultural theory, literature, pedagogy, but also business and management studies to elucidate the origins, forms, and possible strategies of dealing with clichés of ‘the British‘ and ‘the Germans‘. By assessing their impact on the personal sphere and that of communication, the media, business, and politics, they demonstrate how an awareness of stereotypes can be part of a realistic assertion of identity in a changing world.978-1-4039-1946-5Series ISSN 2946-

Overview: Überblick über Satelliten-Navigationssysteme und deren LeistungsfähigkeitDie Ortung und die auf ihr beruhende Navigation ist seit dem Altertum eine wesentliche Vor­ aussetzung zur Seefahrt. Sie erfolgte in früheren Zeiten ausschließlich mit optischen Methoden und benutzte die Gestirne als Bezugspunkte. Im 20. Jahrhundert kamen mit den Erfindungen auf dem Gebiet der elektromagnetischen Wellen funktechnische Einrichtungen für die Ortung und Navigation zum Einsatz. Die damit durchgeführte Navigation benötigte keine optische Sicht, war wesentlich einfacher zu handhaben und ging viel schn
