In spite of significant advances in technology it is still difficult to access information used or produced by different applications due to the hardware and software incompatibilities of manufacturing and information processing equipment. But it is this information and operational knowledge which m...

Die in diesem Buch beschriebene empirische Untersuchung geht einen wesentlichen theoretischen Schritt über den Stand der bisherigen empirischen Kapitalmarktforschung in Deutschland hinaus. Sie beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, ob beobachtete Differenzen zwischen Markt- und Modellpreisen von Aktienoptionen ökonomisch erklärbar sind. Die ökonomische Erklärung solcher Differenzen wird dabei in der Vermutung gesucht, daß Insider insbesondere aufgrun...

Although the invasion of our living rooms is mostly only via printed or electronic media (as opposed to personally experienced tragedies), people in the western hemissphere seem to be concerned, ...

The food industry is in the process of adapting itself more strongly than previously to the demands and needs for quality products. Tightening up the legal framework of conditions and the internationalization of the markets are compelling a further development of concern over quality and its purposeful application. The 13th International Conference on Biochemical Analysis organized a workshop together with the International Society of Animal C...

No philosopher has held a higher opinion of art than Hegel, yet nor was any so profoundly pessimistic about its prospects - despite living in the German golden age of Goethe, Mozart and Schiller. For if the artists of classical Greece could find the perfect fusion of content and form, modernity faced complicating - and ultimately disabling - questions. Christianity, with its code of unworldliness, had compromised the immediacy of man's relatio...

The book shows that logistics remains an active, vibrant subject of inquiry. There are several reasons for this continued development. Firstly, logistic systems are extremely complex with many inherent technical problems and fundamentally new approaches to the subject are frequently ar...

In Changing States Robert Welch examines the work of major modern Irish writers and draws attention to the aspects of modern Irish literature that make it so distinctive and powerful. Looking at the work of Yeats, Heaney, Synge, Beckett, Joyce and Mairtin o Cadhain, Welch argues that what unites these writers is each one's attempt to respond to the transformation of Ireland from Gaelic to twentieth-century post-industrial culture. Writing agai...

Hierarchische Führungsaufgaben bestehen darin, daß eine übergeordnete Instanz auf das Verhalten untergeordneter Entscheidungsträger Einfluß nimmt. Dieser Einfluß ist nicht eingleisig, sondern er vollzieht sich ganz wesentlich auch in der antizipativen Berücksichtigung der Reaktion der untergeordneten Stellen auf mögliche Einflußnahmen. Für die übergeordnete Instanz ergibt sich daher insbesondere bei ihren planerischen Aktivitäten die Notwendig...

The recent introduction of two European index options on the FTSE Eurotrack 100 and the Eurotop 100 is evidence of a demand from investors to hedge pan-European risk.

The Eurotrack 100 covers a hundred companies in eleven countries in continental Europe. The index is denominated in DM and' a breakdown by value into th...

Cultural Rights" combines the critical approaches of both sociology and cultural studies to provide an innovative interpretation of contemporary culture. While the book's theoretical origins lie in Walter Benjamin's groundbreaking thesis about the effects of mechanical reproduction, Celia Lury takes his analysis one step further in her examination of the near obsolete concepts of "originality" and "authenticity" in postmodern culture, where re...

The earliest battle in history which can be reconstructed in detail, Qadesh pitted the two great warriors of the age against each other, Muwatallish of Hatti and the great warrior-Pharaoh Rameses II. With the Hittites gaining the initial advantage, all seemed lost until Rameses himself led his personal followers into the fray. However, in spite of the appearance of Egyptian reinforcements, the bravery of the pharaoh and the tactically superior...

The Churchill was undoubtedly one of the most successful British tanks of the Second World War. Although it suffered from being underarmed, a defect common to most British armoured vehicles of the period, it was nevertheless loved by its crews: its cross-country ability was unrivalled and it was less inclined to 'brew-up' from a direct hit than the Sherman. It was also adaptable. Modified Churchills played a crucial part in the initial D-Day l...
