Overview: In the pages that follow, an attempt is made to examine those sections of the Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion which deal with the Argument from Design - the argument which purports to prove that certain observed similarities between the design of the world and machines of human contrivance countenance reasoning by analogy to the conclusion that the cause of the design of the world resembles human intelligence. The sections which deal with the Argument from Design, and with which I am therefore concerned, are Parts I through VIII and Part XII. I argue that a clue to Hume‘s discu

Overview: These notes were prepared for the DMV-Seminar held in Dusseldorf, Schloss Mickeln from June 28 to July 5, 1987. They consist of two parts which can be read independently. The reader is presumed to have a basic education in differential and algebraic topology. Surgery theory is the basic tool for the investigation of differential and topological manifolds. A systematic development of the theory is a long and difficult task. The purpose of these notes is to describe simple examples and at the same time to give an introduction to some of the systematic parts of the theory. The first par

Overview: Provides a coherent framework for decision-making.Combines a strategic and tactical approach to asset allocation.Integrates real world experience with solid theoretical underpinning.Based on up-to-datThis book covers each step in the asset allocation process, addressing as many of the relevant questions as possible along the way. How can we formulate expectations about long-term returns? How relevant are valuations? What are the challenges to optimizing the portfolio? Can factor investing add value and, if so, how can it be implemented? Which are the key performance drivers for each

Overview: The third edition was expanded by eight new chapters comprising about 200 pages including a chapter on how to construct sundials.Includes supplementary material: .From the reviews:. .".. An excellent reference on undergraduate mathematical computing.".(.American Mathematical Monthly.)."... manuals for such systems (Maple and MATLAB) tend to use trivial examples, making it difficult for new users of such systems to quickly apply their power to real problems. The authors have written a good book to address this need. ... the book is worth buying if you want guidance in applying Maple a

Overview: Erste umfassende Darstellung des Themas aus der Perspektive verschiedener namhafter Autoren.Übertragung neuer Erkenntnisse aus dem Innovationsmanagement und der Nachhaltigkeitsforschung auf den Wandel.Mit den Ereignissen und Entscheidungen des Jahres 2011 wurde endgültig derWandel im Umbau unseres Energiesystems eingeleitet. Welche Perspektiven ergeben sich daraus für die Unternehmen des Energiesektors? Namhafte Autoren aus Wissenschaft und Praxis beschreiben in diesem Buch, wie der Wandel  in Richtung auf mehr Nachhaltigkeit gelingen kann. Eine wichtige Rolle spielen dabei die sogen

Overview: Classical stellar evolution theories have undergone somedrastic changes in recent decades. New insights into the developmentof stellar interiors were obtained from studying stars in variousstages of their lives, as well as with the help of fast computers,which gave a boost to the branch of numerical modelling of stellularstructure and evolution. .This book is divided into two parts. The first part deals with thegeneral aspects of stellular structure and evolution including achapter on numerical modelling. The second part deals with specificevolutionary aspects of single and binary st

Overview: Eine Studie zur kommunikativen Funktion der Metapher1.1 Weltansicht und Sprachansicht Menschen sind auf Zeichenbildung angewiesen, auf das Lesen von etwas als etwas. Dabei wird manches Zeichen, anderes nicht, denn Zeichen bilden heißt, unterscheiden. Durch die auswählende Zeichenbildung wird Wirklichkeit er­ faßt und ausgedrückt, wird sie für Menschen erlebbar. Dieser Gedanke wird als fundamental angesehen und bildet daher den Rahmen für die vorliegende Untersuchung. Die Zeichenbildung ist sowohl psychische als auch kommunikative Notwen­ digkeit. Die Gestaltpsychologie betont die Str

Overview: Presents an efficient method for predicting the evolution of material properties in narrow hard layers.Includes supplementary material: .This book deals with singular solutions that appear in the vicinity of maximum friction surfaces for several rigid plastic models. In particular, it discusses precise asymptotic expansions as a necessary ingredient for the development of efficient numerical methods to solve boundary value problems that involve the maximum friction law as a boundary condition. An applied aspect of the singular solutions considered is that these solutions are capable

Overview: Despite considerable effort in primary prevention, coronary heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death in the industrialized nations. The patient who survives his first myocardial infarction carries approximately a tenfold risk of recurrence and sudden death when compared to the normal population. The concept of secondary prevention, therefore, has emerged as an active strategy aimed at the reduction of fatal and non-fatal recurrences of myocardial infarction. Apart from risk factors of relevance in primary prevention, secondary prevention is dependent on the extent of
