Overview: Nearly everyone agrees that life has changed in our technological society, whether the contrast is with earlier stages in Western culture or with non-Western cultures. "Modernization" is just one of various terms that have been applied to the process by which we have arrived at the peculiar lifestyle typical of our age; whatever the term for the process, almost all analysts agree in finding technology to be one of its key ingredients. This is the judgment of critics of all sorts - anthropologists, historians, literary figures, sociologists, theologians. Volume 4 in the Philosophy and

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .The study of variational problems showing multi-scale behaviour with oscillation or concentration phenomena are a challenging topic of very active research. This volume includes lecture notes devoted to the asymptotic analysis of such problems when the multi-scale behaviour derives from scale separation in the passage from atomistic systems to continuous functionals, from competition between bulk and surface energies, from various types of homogenization processes (random, in perforated domains, on fractals), and to concentration effects in Ginzburg-

Overview: Wat is telefonische triage? Hoe laat je telefonisch horen dat je patiëntgericht en niet alleen klachtgericht met de patiënt spreekt? Welke vragen stel je?

Overview: 400 million years in the structural and mechanical history of the largest organ of the body the skin.Many parts of the book are largely based on the authors own research in both neontology and paleont.The vertebrate integument arose about 450 million years ago as an ‘armour’ of dermal bony plates in small, jawless fish-like creatures, informally known as the ostracoderms. This book reviews the major changes that have occurred in the vertebrate integument from its beginnings to the present day. Critical questions concerning the origin, structure and functional biology of the bony inte

Overview: In 1979 the International Rel‘iel1‘ of Education celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary. This book which now reproduces the two Jubilee issues of that Review has been published for a number of reasons. One is the importance of the topics dealt with. The last twenty-five years have seen unprecedented developments in education right across the world, in industrialised countries no less than in those which are still approaching that phase. From time to time it is essential to look back over the past and take stock of how the present situation has come about, to disentangle the trends a

Overview: Is the first study of Ogyu Sorai to appear in English in many years.Is written by the foremost specialists in the field, in Japan, Taiwan, and the West.Is for specialists in Japanese Studies, Sinologi.This book contains short analyses (kaidai) of Ogyū Sorai’s (1666-1728) most important works, as well as a biography and a number of essays. The essays explore various aspects of his teachings, of the origins of his thought, and of the reception of his ideas in Japan, China, and Korea before and after "modernization" struck in the second half of the nineteenth century.. Ogyū Sorai has co

Overview: Until recently, most books and articles on Piaget‘s theory, whether laudatory or critical, were written by psychologists or, more rarely, epistemologists, who had had no direct contact with the research that provided the basis for the theoretical constructs, nor with the ongoing work on the theory itself. These authors, who looked into the theory, so to speak, from the outside, often noted aspects that were less visible to those working "inside" the theory and in this way raised a number of important questions. However, because most of these authors were psychologists, they often ove

Overview: The experimental discovery of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) at the end of 1981 by Tsui, Stormer and Gossard was absolutely unexpected since, at this time, no theoretical work existed that could predict new struc­ tures in the magnetotransport coefficients under conditions representing the extreme quantum limit. It is more than thirty years since investigations of bulk semiconductors in very strong magnetic fields were begun. Under these conditions, only the lowest Landau level is occupied and the theory predicted a monotonic variation of the resistivity with increasing ma

Overview: Offers an entirely new approach to scholarly sources based on linguistic theories.Represents a fruitful approach to history of science and Text Act Theory.Combines a general and innovative methodologyThe book presents the outcomes of an innovative research programme in the history of science and implements a Text Act Theory which extends Speech Act Theory, in order to illustrate a new approach to texts and textual communicative acts.

Overview: Fluorescence spectroscopy and its applications to the physical and life sciences have evolved rapidly during the past decade. The increased interest in fluorescence appears to be due to advances in time resolution, methods of data analysis, and improved instrumentation. With these advances, it is now practical to perform time-resolved measurements with enough resolution to compare the results with the structural and dynamic features of mac- molecules, to probe the structures of proteins, membranes, and nucleic acids, and to acquire two-dimensional microscopic images of chemical or pr

The papers cover a broad spectrum

Overview: This is the first book to portray the history of the Russian secret police - the so-called ‘Okhrana‘ - its personnel, world view and interaction with both government and people during the reigns of Alexander III and Nicholas II. The secret police harassed, infiltrated and subverted Russian radical and progressive society as it struggled to preserve Tsardom‘s traditional political culture in the face of Russia‘s rapid socio-economic transformation - a transformation which the forces of order scarcely understood, yet deeply despised.978-0-230-37144-6Series ISSN 2946-868X Series E-ISSN
