Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The János Bolyai Mathematical Society and the HUN-REN Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics (Budapest, Hungary) organized a week-long conference on the occasion of the 70th birthdays of four excellent mathematicians: Péter Frankl, Zoltán Füredi, Ervin Gy…öri and János Pach in July 2024. The present volume mainly contains survey papers written by the invited speakers of this conference and it also includes some interesting new results, see, for example, Noga Alon s paper in the area of extremal combinatorics. The book also comprises three excellent surveys written by Hurlbert, Kupavskii, and Jian Wang which give a good overview of extremal set theory. Moreover, two papers written by Balko and Verstraëte are surveys of certain sub-branches of Ramsey theory, while two papers written by Aslanyan-Sahakyan and Ihringer present a broad picture of the combinatorial properties of Boolean functions. Likewise, the paper written by Géza Tóth covers an interesting area of combinatorial geometry and in addition, there are subsequent papers presenting results on graph theory.This volume will be a valuable resource for graduate students and young(perhaps alsonot so young) researchers interested in extremal combinatorics and combinatorialgeometry.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In a world where artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly integrated into our everyday lives, this book poses the crucial psychological questions: How does AI influence our thinking, our perception, and our relationships What d…oes the interplay between humans and machines do to our psyche And can machines ever imitate-or even surpass-human emotions, creativity, or morality The book explores the psychological mechanisms triggered by human-machine interactions and examines whether machines can develop their own form of consciousness. It investigates the potential risks and opportunities that arise as we delegate more and more decisions and emotional connections to AI systems.The chapters range from analyses of machine consciousness and emotional intelligence to questions about how AI affects our autonomy and whether machines are capable of making moral decisions.By linking psychology, philosophy, and technology, the book shows that AI is not only a technological revolution but also a fundamental challenge to our self-understanding as human beings. It invites readers to confront the existential and psychological consequences of AI-and to critically reflect on our future role in a world increasingly shaped by intelligent machines. 260 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This open-access brief offers routes to the solution of the threats to the safety performance of high-risk industries caused by skills challenges. It addresses the consequences of job transformationlinked to technological developme…nts, digitalization, unfavourable demographics and the lack of attractiveness of some high-risk industrial sectors, today and in the near future.The first part of the brief highlights the questions:What about the collective dimension of skills, skills acquired outside the professional sphere, or the longitudinal perspective of skills development Why do we sometimes encounter a learning wall, a situation in which the training and mentoring needs of newcomers exceed the capacity for skills transfer from experienced employees What are the impacts of digital transformation on the dynamics of work groups The contributors investigate aspects of these topics that are rarely studied or even considered.The rest of the brief explores various solutions that can be considered to meet the skills challenge in a constantly evolving world. The second part offers avenues related to training, while the third focuses on organization and management.Rather than providing standard answers, the brief provides a strategic, organizational and contextualized perspective on maintaining and developing skills for the future of high-risk industries in a changing world.Researchers and practitioners in safety management and human resources issues will find this brief an important source of original thinking on problems that are becoming more and more current in safety-critical industries as they are in many others. 109 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This open access book takes readers inside the minds and hearts of twenty urban visionaries transforming urban and rural environments across six continents. Rather than focusing on technical solutions or policy frameworks, Cathy Oke and J…orn Verbeeck reveal the deeply personal journeys of former mayors, Indigenous leaders, CEOs, entrepreneurs, activists and academics who have used cities and towns as living laboratories for humanity's future. From Durban to Paris, Melbourne to Bangalore, these boundary spanners share intimate stories of what drives their work: childhood memories of fishing with grandparents, moments of recognition on Arctic mountains, encounters with traditional knowledge systems that challenge Western assumptions about development. Rather than celebrating lone heroes, the book reveals cities and their communities as 'kaleidoscopes of possibility' requiring ensemble casts who translate between disciplines, sectors, and communities.Each story weaves personal odyssey with professional transformation, capturing how individual experiences of displacement, discovery, and belonging shape approaches to collective challenges like climate change, inequality, and urban resilience. This is a syllabus for sustainable city leadership: accumulated wisdom that integrates multiple knowledge systems, honours ancient wisdom alongside contemporary innovation, and fosters collaborative intelligence through the stories we share. Essential reading for anyone navigating the messy, vital work of making cities thrive.Illustrations by Chris Cane. 210 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book examines how wine tourism is designed, interpreted and strategically justified by wineries through a comparative analysis of two emblematic wine regions: Rioja (Spain) and Mendoza (Argentina). Commonly associated with the Old Wo…rld and New World traditions, respectively, these regions offer contrasting yet comparable settings for analyzing how wine tourism strategies are shaped by territory, history and institutional context. Adopting a producer-centered perspective, the book draws on resource and capabilities theory, network-based approaches and institutional theory to explain how wineries mobilize territorial resources, coordinate with regional actors and respond to regulatory and legitimacy pressures. Wine tourism is analyzed not as a transferable managerial model but as a territorially embedded strategic practice that evolves through path-dependent processes.The analysis pays particular attention to contextual factors that condition strategic choice, including cultural heritage, environmental conditions, governance structures and regional economic trajectories. Through its comparative design, the book shows how similar strategic intentions lead to different wine tourism configurations when filtered through distinct territorial logics. Moreover, it contributes to a deeper understanding of wine tourism as a strategic activity grounded in place, producer interpretation and long-term regional development. 129 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The continued popularity of Western, mainly American cultural exports internationally has given rise to 'The West and the Rest' paradigm as a defining feature of cultural globalization. This volume explains 'The West and the Rest' paradig…m and follows its legacy with analysis of the development of the concepts of cultural globalization, cultural convergence, and their continued proliferation in authoritarian dictatorships, despite strong government censorship. It explains this trajectory in the context of technological innovations that have fueled the evolution of cross-border cultural messaging. This messaging continues to proliferate via largely illicit citizen-managed markets that keep developing ways to evade the censorship of central governments in the remnants of the Communist world. Its popularity with ordinary citizen keeps growing because of showing higher standards of living and well-being. Citizens embrace it as an escapist mechanism and this embrace is analyzed as an outcome of soft power. The dynamic is discussed on two fronts in this volume. One is with a focus on the technological innovations since the end of the Cold War that have increased the breadth, scope, and source of cross-cultural messaging. The other is with a focus on the evolution of the economic structure of the former Communist world. Wealth and digitization are congruent and therefore, a parallel lesion discussion is offered on the change of economic realities of the last decades of Communism and today. The change is the significant growth of wealth in the former Communist world. Authoritarian governments are deploying it in their own soft power ways to promote their domestic and international clout and defy Western cultural and diplomatic pressures, including economic sanctions. This resilience is discussed with a focus on how Russia is withstanding the unprecedented economic sanctions imposed on it for its war on Ukraine. It does so with the help of its ideological allies, including North Korea and China, eager to support Russia in its defiance of Western values. The soft power of these autocratic power players is examined further in the context of the interplay between soft and sharp power. This interplay redefines formal and informal socio-cultural diplomacy. The book concludes with a detailed analysis of the change through a digital cosmopolitanism lens with a focus on user-generated technopolitical content. 117 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Written in the style of a Galilean dialogue, this book offers a compelling exploration of the physical and epistemological foundations of quantum mechanics. Through a lively and accessible exchange, it delves into the major interpretation…s of quantum theory, from the historic debate between Einstein and Bohr to the paradoxes of Schrödinger s cat and Wigner s friend, and from the many-worlds interpretation to the theory of decoherence.The dialogue also examines alternative approaches to the orthodox view, with particular attention to the Ghirardi Rimini Weber theory, developed at the University of Trieste, and Bohmian mechanics. Key topics such as quantum entanglement and non-locality are thoroughly discussed, making this book a comprehensive guide to the central issues in the ongoing debate.For readers seeking a deeper understanding, eleven mathematical appendices provide rigorous insights into the concepts introduced in the main text, without requiring advanced technical background.This is a book for the intellectually curious, anyone eager to engage with one of the most fascinating and unresolved philosophical discussions in modern science. 205 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This is the first book to identify and trace a theme of old age running throughout T.S. Eliot s oeuvre. Previously unacknowledged, Eliot s concern with ageing can now be seen as a significant element in his work, resonating throughout his… poetry, his literary criticism and his dramas.Beginning with the works Eliot is known to have read as a youth, and examining his first unpublished poems, the book explores the origins of his concern with old age. It shows that the theme occurs with surprising frequency in the writings of a young man a quarter of the poems in Eliot s first published collection contain references to old age. It establishes the significance of old men throughout his canon; as the subject of three dramatic monologues; as the most important personage (Eliot) in The Waste Land ; and as the perspective behind Four Quartets. For the first time this theme is identified and shown through close reading and analysis of its use to be a recurring and significant aspect of Eliot s poetry. 150 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book is a timely reflection on the role that the apparatus of area and anthropological difference plays in the discourse and politics of genocide. Drawing from Michel Foucault's work on security as a species concept, it develops thre…e non-speciesist strategies - the genealogical, the figural, and the fictional - for deactivating the genocidal apparatus of area.The hypothesis advanced here is that it is not just the democratic idea of the social contract nor the capitalist commodification of labor that introduces the element of fiction into the political in a self-conscious way. Rather, the configuration of the temporal imaginary drawn from the global history of settler colonialism is what ultimately introduces the element of fiction into the modern notion of political community realized in the nation-state. Yet as the historical experience of Nazism's radicalization of the settler colonial project reveals, the 'fiction of the political' is ultimately connected not just to the nation-state but to the imaginary relation known as the West. Having posited a fundamental link between genocide and the imaginary relation known as the West, the essay concludes by summarizing the two main types of methodological discontinuity practiced by Foucault: the first consists in the singular site of transition at which discontinuity is rendered into continuity; the second consists in the biopoetics of narrative metalepsis that is a stylistic trademark of Foucault's writing. 161 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book offers a rigorous and accessible examination of missing persons that moves beyond the dominant true crime focus on serial killers, cold cases, and unexplained disappearances. Drawing on years of fieldwork, more than 220 intervie…ws and surveys with first responders, and analysis of over 20,000 missing persons reports, it reveals missingness as a continuum shaped by everyday life events, structural vulnerabilities, and institutional responses, as well as rare cases of serious harm. This book examines who goes missing and why, how media and true crime shape public understanding, and how police search and rescue volunteers, families, and communities work to locate the missing. It also looks forward, asking what prevention might look like if missing persons were treated as a sustained social priority rather than episodic mystery. Bridging research, practice, and public engagement, this book makes a distinctive contribution by shifting the conversation from fascination to responsibility, and from reactive searching to systemic understanding, prevention, and care.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book offers a localised cultural approach to understanding (im)politeness behaviour in Mexico, thereby making a meaningful contribution to the study of pragmatics. It combines theory and practice to examine contextualised relational…conduct, with the aim of moving away from essentialist approaches that stem from national perceptions. Taking Guadalajara, Mexico as its example, the book underscores the extent to which localised practices align with, or diverge from, broader patterns of (im)politeness, also serving as a case study for extrapolation to other locations. It critically examines the concepts of conventional and nonconventional politeness, how politeness changes according to societal and generational norms, and forms of resistance or opposition to politeness. It will be of interest to researchers and scholars in the fields of Mexican Spanish-language education and linguistics, specifically applied linguistics, including pragmatics, sociolinguistics, and second language acquisition. 128 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This second volume of Online Resilience and Wellbeing in Young People explores online resilience and safety from a new perspective, by drawing extensively upon the youth voice. While 'online safety' as a concept has now existed for well o…ver ten years, the majority of policy and narrative is driven by preventative and adultist views of ensuring safety from harm. Underpinned by extensive empirical work, this book argues that safety, or freedom from harm, is not an achievable goal and we should refocus upon harm reduction and risk mitigation. Fundamental to this argument is that the youth voice clearly states that they will not disclose, or ask adults for support, because they do not believe they will get help or worse, will be punished as a result of disclosure. The research shows that professionals often bring their own digital value biases into safeguarding decisions, and feel that they should be white knights to young people, rather than listening to them and supporting them in a non-judgemental way. The book will be of great value to researchers and students as well as practitioners, teachers and parents interested in digital resilience and safeguarding, internet security and youth online behaviour and wellbeing. 134 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware - This concise, highly readable volume explores America s enduring fascination with secession. Using case studies of successful and unsuccessful secessionist movements at the subnational level, the authors illustrate the complexities surro…unding efforts by groups to achieve autonomy from a larger state. The comparison of cases is facilitated by a conceptual framework identifying various causes of these political movements. The discussion highlights the challenges facing would-be secessionists. Yet, the idea remains popular, and students of American history and politics will find this overview interesting and revealing. D. Munroe Eagles, Emeritus Professor, Political Science, University at Buffalo At a moment marked by polarization and renewed debates over secession and governance, this book is important and timely. Blending theory and history, the authors utilize case studies of American secession movements to demonstrate how questions of political power, culture, and economics intersect to shape our discourse. Full of insight and interesting stories, this study offers a compelling lens for understanding the past, present, and future of federalism in the United States. Christopher Cody, Assistant Professor, History, Hudson County Community CollegeSecession and Self-determination in the United States: Culture, Conchs, and Pop vs Soda examines a selection of sub-state movements to discern patterns in law and politics using secession to achieve policy goals. Highlighting Florida, New York, and Pennsylvania, in the context of broader theories of sovereignty and self-determination at work in the rest of the world, the book postulates a process for achieving success within Constitutional limits. 151 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book reveals how Nextgen AI systems are revolutionizing the way businesses create value in what the authors call the Co-Intelligence revolution. Gone are the days of simply making and selling products or services. Now, humans and the…se AI systems combine to produce and use tokens of intelligence to craft interactive experiences, shifting value creation from mere transactions to dynamic, co-intelligent engagements.The authors introduce a groundbreaking paradigm of co-creatively generated intelligence (COIN): relational intelligence emerging between humans, machines, institutions, and ecosystems, where co-intelligent organizational ecosystems optimize decision-making, personalize experiences, and drive new forms of agility.Packed with case studies, including OpenAI, L Oréal, SAP, Siemens, JPMorgan Chase, Tesla, and emerging digital public infrastructures, this book details how COIN is transforming enterprises in innovative ways. It outlines how businesses can leverage Nextgen AI to enhance operations, offerings, and customer experiences while making a positive impact on the environment. This work will captivate scholars and practitioners alike, offering pathways to co-create a symbiotic, sustainable future. 296 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This compact book is a guide for social workers and social work students to integrate climate resilience and adaptation into their work in order to cope with a degenerating climate and increasing vulnerability. It is a forward-look…ing, practical, and ethically grounded manual designed to prepare social workers for the escalating challenges posed by climate change and societal instability. It explores how climate breakdown reshapes both the profession and its foundational mission -- supporting the most vulnerable.Drawing on climate science, social work theory, and frontline practice, the book addresses how warming, extreme weather, resource scarcity, and even societal collapse could transform who is considered vulnerable, how services are delivered, and what new roles social workers may need to adopt. It guides readers through understanding the most realistic future scenarios, and what those mean for practice on the ground.The book emphasizes building both personal and professional resilience, helping social workers not only survive but also lead with clarity and care in a world of uncertainty. Chapters include practical tools for assessing local risks, cultivating emotional and psychological strength, ensuring food and service continuity, and acting ethically in crisis conditions. Among the topics covered are:Reimagining Prevention: Integrating Climate Adaptation into Everyday Social Work PracticeHow the Natural World Fits into Social Work Climate ResilienceRisk Assessment in PracticePractising Social Work Amid Societal BreakdownMaintaining Mental Health amid Ongoing Eco-Anxiety and Climate Grief: Being the rock in the streamWith a focus on justice, community care, and adaptive thinking, Climate Resilience Guide for Social Workers ultimately empowers social workers to act as stabilizing forces and advocates in their communities -- prepared not just to respond to climate-driven disruption, but also to shape a more compassionate and resilient future.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book explores the emerging paradigm of Agentic AI, where Large Language Models (LLMs) and Reinforcement Learning (RL) converge to create intelligent, autonomous, and adaptive systems. It provides a unified theoretical foundati…on and connects it to practical implementation, offering readers a clear path from concept to execution. It will also provide an integrative approach of Agentic AI, Large Language Models, and Reinforcement Learning. While these topics are often studied separately, this book provides a coherent framework that unites them, filling a critical gap between AI theory, system design, and real-world application.In an era of rapidly evolving AI technologies, understanding how Agentic AI systems operate, and how they differ from traditional AI, is essential. This book guides researchers, engineers, and AI practitioners through the architectural principles that empower agents to reason, cooperate, and learn from feedback. It further demonstrates how RL can fine-tune LLMs to produce more focused, context-aware outputs, strengthening their role in multi-agent collaboration and autonomous decision-making.The content unfolds from the evolution of AI to Agentic AI, covering architectural design, learning mechanisms, and integration strategies for LLMs and RL. A real-world case study anchors the theory in practice, illustrating how these technologies can be combined to build interpretable systems. Readers will discover adaptive orchestration strategies, methods for enhancing model interpretability, and design templates for developing intelligent agent ecosystems. By the end, readers will not only understand the inner workings of Agentic AI but also gain the tools to design and implement their own agent-based frameworks. A working knowledge of Python is recommended to fully engage with the practical aspects. 94 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This open access book explores the representation and reception of female subjectivity in contemporary Chinese reality dating shows. Conceptualising gender as discursively and performatively constructed, and dating as mediated through the… reality television format, it examines how female subjectivity is circumscribed by gender norms, familial relationships, and matchmaking practices. The book further investigates how female audiences actively deconstruct these gendered narratives. Drawing on texts-in-action viewing sessions and interviews with twenty-three young women in China, this study demonstrates how reality dating shows reinforce patriarchal scripts by reinventing traditional matchmaking rituals and inciting women to sustain a postfeminist sensibility that conceals systemic, structural, and taken-for-granted inequalities. The book contributes theoretically and empirically to feminist audience studies, mediated intimacy, and debates on how postfeminism and neoliberalism are lived, experienced, and represented. It is relevant to readers curious about media and gender studies, feminist theory, and East Asian studies. 198 pp. Englisch.
