Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The Symposium on Infrared and Submillimeter Astronomy was held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.A., on June 8-10, 1976, as an activity associated with the Nineteenth Plenary Meeting of the Committee on Space Research (CaSPAR). The Symposium was sponsored jointly by CaSPAR, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) and the International Union of Radio Science CURSI). caSPAR is an interdisciplinary scientific organization, established by the International Council of Scientific Unions in 1958, to, in the words of its charter, 'provide the world scientific community with the means whereby it may exploit the possibilities of satellites and space probes of all kinds for scientific purposes and exchange the resulting data on a co operative basis.' The purpose of this particular CaSPAR Sympo sium was to present new results in infrared and submillimeter astronomy obtained by observations on aircraft, high altitude balloons, rockets, satellites, and space probes. Topics dis cussed included the Sun, the solar system, galactic and extra galactic objects as well as the cosmic background radiation. Instrumentation for observations in infrared and submillimeter astronomy was also discussed, with particular emphasis on future programs from space observatories.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Dr. E. C. Djamson, a distinguished Ghanaian Lawyer and Diplomat, has put political scientists and students of international law into his debt. His work is an important contribution to the literature of Afro-European co operation. He examines the history of relations between the European Economic Community and the Associated African States; he provides a thorough analysis of the international institutions and of the wider political, economic and legal problems involved in Afro-European co-operation. The author is concerned with the manner in which African sovereign states are now able to enter into relations with Europe on a basis of legal equality. He emphasizes the principles involved in the law of nations; this should comprise, not merely 'civilized' law in traditional parlance, but also Mrican customary law. As Dr. Djamson puts it, 'the international community can no longer afford to ignore the principles of law peculiar to the so-called Third World . . . after all the 'general principles of law recognized by civilized nations' are not at variance with the basic ideas of law andjustice as understood by the newcomers to the international scene. ' At the same time, both the new states and the old, established powers must accept those obligations that derive from their being signatories to international agreement. Adherence to the principle of pacta sunt obser vanda does not violate sovereignty, but of itself gives evidence of a country's maturity and ability to co-exist with other sovereign entities. Dr.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Das Erste Buch von Husserls Ideen zu einer reinen Phänome nologie und phänomenologischen Philosophie erschien zu Husserls Lebzeiten 1913, 1922 und 1928 in drei fast völlig identischen Auflagen. 1950 erschien im Rahmen der auf Grund des Nachlasses ver öffentlichten Ausgabe der Gesammelten Werke eine 'Neue, auf Grund der handschriftlichen Zusätze des Verfassers erweiterte Auflage', im Auftrage des Husserl-Archivs in dieser Form her ausgegeben von Walter Biemel. Diese Ausgabe suchte in text kritisch verantworteter Form den mannigfachen Ansätzen Hus serls zu einer Überarbeitung des Werkes Rechnung zu tragen durch eine Neugestaltung des Haupttextes. In der nunmehr vorliegenden, im Auftrage des Husserl-Archivs von Karl Schuhmann besorgten Neuausgabe des Werkes wird im Ersten Halbband allein der Text der zu Lebzeiten Husserls er schienenen Auflagen wiedergegeben, während die sämtlichen handschriftlichen Zusätze des Verfassers im Rahmen der im Zwei ten Halbbande zusammengefaßten Ergänzenden Texte berück sichtigt sind. Zu dieser Neugestaltung des Bandes berechtigte und nötigte der Fortschritt der Editionsarbeit des Husserl-Archivs seit 1950 wie der Husserl-Forschung überhaupt. Die Entwicklung von Husserls Denken über die Fassung seiner Ideen von 1913 hinaus ist unterdessen vielfältig dokumentiert und erforscht, und zu gleich hat sich das Bedürfnis erneuert, auch wieder über den ur sprünglichen Text des Werks, wie es zu Husserls Lebzeiten er schien und wirkte, zu verfügen. Die Teilung des Bandes sollte das vergleichende Studium von Urtext und Vorstudien, Bearbei tungen und weitergehenden Entwürfen erleichtern.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This textbook is designed for the intermediate-level course on ordinary differential equations offered at many universities and colleges. It treats, as standard topics of such a course: existence and uniqueness theory, linear s- terns, stability theory, and introductory phase-plane analysis of autonomous second order systems. The unique feature of the book is its further inc- sion of a substantial introduction to delay differential eq- tions. Such equations are motivated by problems in control theory, physics, biology, ecology, economics, inventory c- trol, and the theory of nuclear reactors. The surge of interest in delay differential equations during the past two or three decades is evidenced by th- sands of research papers on the subject and about 20 published books devoted in whole or in part to these equations. The v . books include those of Myskis [1951] , El' sgol' c [1955] and [1964], Pinney [1958], Krasovskil [1959], Bellman and Cooke [1963], Norkin [1965], Halanay [1966], Oguztoreli [1966], Lakshmikantham and Leela [1969], Mitropol'skir and Martynjuk [1969], Martynjuk [1971], and Hale [1971], plus a number of symposium and seminar proceedings published in the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. These books have influenced the present textbook. 516 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Neurosurgeons of Berlin are happy to welcome their colleagues from Germany and from foreign countries to our Annual Meeting, being held in this city once again after many years. The external appearance of the city may have changed in many respects since our winter meeting in 1965. This ist not the case, however, as concerns the outstanding quality of its cultural life. We hope that you take as much profit of it as possible. When choosing the scientific themes of this congress, we were led by the idea that problems should be discussed which are not dealt with at special symposia this year. Thus, the problems related to lumbar disc surgery and its complications were chosen as one main topic. This important chapter of neurosurgery worries (and not seldom depresses) us in our daily work. A joint statistic analysis has been made, for which we are indebted to the colleagues from the following university clinics: Essen, Freiburg, Graz, Hannover, Heidelberg, Kiel, Koln, Mainz, Wiirzburg, Berlin-Charlottenburg, Berlin Steglitz, of the Neurosurgical Department of the BG-U nfallklinik Frankfurt/Main, of the Neurosurgical Department Wagner-J auregg-Krankenhaus Linz, of the Neurosurgical Clinic of the Katharinen-Hospital Stuttgart, and of the Neurosurgical Clinic of the Stadt.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -of A first attempt to formulate the phenomenological problem identity was originally made in my doctoral dissertation, 'The Identity of the Logical Proposition,' (Graduate Faculty, New School for Social Research, 1969). Further development of the problem, both direct and indirect, as well as extensive revision, has found expression in 'The Foundation of Predicative Experience and the Spontaneity of Consciousness' (Life-World and Consciousness. Essays for Aron Gurwitsch, 1972), 'Gurwitsch's Concept of Per ceptual Unity as the Basic Form of Rational Consciousness,' (Social Research, April, 1975), and 'The Refinement of the Concept of Constitution' (Research in Phenomenology, Vol. IV, 1974). These studies, in turn, formed the springboard for the present study of the problem of identity. No more than the other studies, this study far from claiming finality, is rather an ever-widening beginning of a phenomenological inquiry into the constitution of identity. I am enormously indebted to my friend and colleague, Professor Fred Kersten of the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay. No tribute is sufficient to acknowledge his invaluable assistance and counsel in the preparation of this work for publication. I would also like to thank Professor Werner Marx of the University of Freiburg for his sustaining encouragement in the later phase of this work. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this essay is to investigate the meaning of the concept of identity within a framework of the phenomenological theory of consciousness. 112 pp. Englisch.

The basic research for it took place during World War II, but there are many aspects which still make the book interesting as a text and as a reference. It treats basic aspects of the dynamics of compressible fluids in mathematical form, and attempts to present a systematic theory of nonlinear wave propagation, particularly in relation to gas dynamics. Written in the form of an advanced textbook, it accounts for classical as well as some fairly recent developments. The authors intend their audience to be engineers, physicists and mathematicians alike. 484 pp. Englisch.

Pour des résultats complets, ou des démonstrationsdétaillées, SGA 4 reste indispensable.Le 'Rapport sur la formule des traces' contient une démonstration complété dela formule des traces pour l'endomorphisme de Frobenius. La démonstration est celledonnée par Grothendieck dans SGA 5, élaguée de tout détail inutile. Ce rapportdevrait permettre à utilisateur d'oublier SGA 5, qu'on pourra considérer comme unesérie de digression, certaines très intéressantes. Son existence permettra de publierprochainement SGA 5 tel quel. Il est complété par l'exposé 'Applications de laformule des traces aux sommes trigonométriques' qui explique comment la formuledes traces permet l'étude de sommes trigonométriques, et donne des exemples. 324 pp. Französisch.

Neuware -The Springer edition of this book is an unchanged reprint of Courant and Friedrich's classical treatise which was first published in 1948. The basic research for it took place during World War II, but there are many aspects which still make the book interesting as a text and as a reference. It treats basic aspects of the dynamics of compressible fluids in mathematical form, and attempts to present a systematic theory of nonlinear wave propagation.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 484 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -No discipline has been more praised or more criticized than the writing of history. Cioero claimed that history teaches men how to live. Aris totle denied it the very name of science and regwded poetry as the higher wisdom. At various times history has been assigned a command ing or a demeaning statIUs in the hierarchy of sciences. Today one can admire the increasing precision and sophistication of the methods used by historia:ns. On the other hand, Thucydides' History of the PeZo ponesian War still serves as the ideal model of how to reconstruct the historical past. Even those who deny the possibility of an objective reconstruction of the past would themselves likie to be recorded by historians, 'objectively' or not. Dislike of history and fear of its verdict are not incompatible with reverence and awe for its practitioners, the historians. So man's attitude to history is ambiguous. The controversy about history continues. Widely differing issues are at stake. Historians themselves, however, are the least engaged in the struggle. Rarely does a historian decide to open the door of his study and join in the melee about the meaning of history. More often he slams it shut and returns to his studies, oblivious of the fact that with the passage of thne the gap between his scientific work and its audience might widen. The historian does not shun the battle, he merely chooses his own battleground. 704 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Most of the problems posed by Physics to Mathematical Analysis are boundary value problems for partial differential equations and systems. Among them, the problems concerning linear evolution equations have an outstanding position in the study of the physical world, namely in fluid dynamics, elastodynamics, electromagnetism, plasma physics and so on. This Institute was devoted to these problems. It developed essentially the new methods inspired by Functional Analysis and specially by the theories of Hilbert spaces, distributions and ultradistributions. The lectures brought a detailed exposition of the novelties in this field by world known specialists. We held the Institute at the Sart Tilman Campus of the University of Liege from September 6 to 17, 1976. It was attended by 99 participants, 79 from NATO Countries [Belgium (30), Canada (2), Denmark (I), France (15), West Germany (9), Italy (5), Turkey (3), USA (14)] and 20 from non NATO Countries [Algeria (2), Australia (3), Austria (I), Finland (1), Iran (3), Ireland (I), Japan (6), Poland (1), Sweden (I), Zair (1)].
