Overview: This book systematically reviews and identifies trends in and challenges for adult education in the fields of work-life learning and VET.It focusses at all levels of analysis (micro, meso, macro level"This book analyses the challenges of globalisation and uncertainty impacting on working and learning at individual, organisational and societal levels. Each of the contributions addresses two overall questions: How is working and learning affected by uncertainty and globalisation? And, in what ways do individuals, organisations, political actors and education systems respond to these ch

Overview: A well-known and widely applied method of approximating the solutions of problems in mathematical physics is the method of difference schemes. Modern computers allow the implementation of highly accurate ones; hence, their construction and investigation for various boundary value problems in mathematical physics is generating much current interest. The present monograph is devoted to the construction of highly accurate difference schemes for parabolic boundary value problems, based on Padé approximations. The investigation is based on a new notion of positivity of difference operator

Overview: This book, coinciding with the sixtieth anniversary of the Liberation of France, takes a unique approach to the events of 1944, by seeing them as shared experiences which brought ordinary Anglo-Americans and French people into contact with each other in a variety of different communities. The book looks at the Liberation through 5 case-studies: Normandy, Cherbourg, Provence, the Pyrénées-Orientales and Reims, and uses the words of participants at the time to describe the developing relationship between Liberators and Liberated.978-1-349-50833-4978-0-230-50997-9

Overview: Ein gezielter Einsatz von Pflanzenschutzmitteln ist für die Sicherung der Nahrungsgrundlage der Bevölkerung unbedingt notwendig. Dazu ist eine vertiefte Kenntnis der Dynamik der Entwicklung von Pflanzenkrankheiten, insbesondere die Wirkung von atmosphärischen Umweltbelastungen auf Pflanzen, eine wesentliche Voraussetzung. Ausgehend von allgemeinen Aspekten der Beziehung zwischen Pflanzenkrankheiten und Wetter, Klima und Mikroklima, wird der Einfluß der wichtigsten meteoro- logischen Faktoren auf die Erreger- und Krankheitsentwicklung behandelt. Zugleich wird auf verschiedene Methoden

Overview: Features two distinct aspects of wave dynamics: wave propagation and diffraction.Presents the application of different mathematical methods to the solution of typical problems.Offers insights into dir.This book presents two distinct aspects of wave dynamics – wave propagation and diffraction – with a focus on wave diffraction. The authors apply different mathematical methods to the solution of typical problems in the theory of wave propagation and diffraction and analyze the obtained results. The rigorous diffraction theory distinguishes three approaches: the method of surface curren

Overview: This book contains the majority of the papers presented at the 1990 Women into Computing Conference, together with selected papers from the 1989 and 1988 Conferences. In 1988, the main theme running through the Conference was that of dismay at the low number of women taking computing courses or following computing careers. The 1989 Conference was concerned solely with workshops for schoolgirls and the 1990 Conference concentrated on strategies rather than an assessment of the situation. As editors, we set as our task to make a selection of papers presenting the overall picture in 199
