This book is the fruit of a close collaboration between three leading scholars with a background in systematics, philosophical theology and ethics. It sets out a new account of how incarnation is mediated in the world of space and time, leading to a new orientation of theology within the world. The doctrinal ('from above') and philosophical ('from below') sections lead to a new exposition of Christian life in confrontation with deep-seated problems of ethics and justice.The three pieces closely interweave with each other in the elaboration of a new kind of practical, doctrinal theology of full philosophical integrity. There are extended passages of reflection upon the historical processes which shaped the theological present in terms of the evolution of science and cosmology, and the consequent development of an array of idealist or anti-empirical conceptualities and methods.This book offers a powerful and sustained critique of modern theologies across the traditions which evade, assimilate or fail to take account of the real world of sensible embodiment, in which, according to creedal affirmations, incarnation continues. In place of idealist readings of faith in different guises, it argues for the centrality of sensibility and the unresolved problematics of everyday empirical existence as the primary place of divine disclosure in which theology is learned and practiced with integrity.

Building on two decades of original research into workplace issues and friendship patterns, sociologist and consultant Dr. Jan Yager offers insights into how to succeed by mastering workplace relationships. Based on an international survey of 400 men and women and over 100 interviews, Yager discovered a relationship unique to the workplace and business. She calls it a workship--more connected than an acquaintance but not as intimate as a friendship. However, workships, especially positive ones, help work to be more productive and more fun and are the "safest" and least complicated connections at work and in business.

The purity of love from a pet to its owner comes from a deep, intuitive bond that creates a high quality relationship. Pets warm our hearts with their most wonderful ability to love, and they become much-adored family members. As owners, we hope to be able to share in all the loving over the full lifetime of the pet. However, sudden news of a serious health issue shatters the pet owner's expectancy of lifelong love and cherished attachment. It is devastating to learn our pet is ill, and the hours and days that follow are filled with overwhelming feelings of helplessness, vulnerability and grief. Owners desperately want to know how they can help their pet and may experience pressure and confusion about what they can do. I have created this workbook to offer a personal guide that will help you deal with the potential loss of your pet. Step by step, I will lead you through our journey and thereby yours. By breaking down the situation the pet owner is able to focus on the tasks that need to be accomplished, and this way the reader may gain the most from what was shared in "Last Summer with Oscar." It is my suggestion that one read Oscar's story first, then wait a day or two, and then re-read each subchapter while coordinating time spent completing the corresponding workbook pages. The workbook follows the same order of the table of contents listed in the book. The reader will find that within the workbook, each subchapter is broken down into the essential mental/physical/emotional tasks. Italicized statements found at the end of each subchapter of the book are now identified as spiritual lessons. Please read and reflect, and then write down your responses. Be gentle with yourself as there are no right or wrong answers. Everyone's journey will be a reflection of one's own uniqueness and individual set of circumstances. It is my sincere wish that this endeavor will bring warmest love to you and all who surround you and your most-beloved pet.

"He who is faithfully analysing ... epi lepsy is doing far more than studying epilepsy" Hughlings Jackson Modifying this well-known statement by Jackson, one could say today: "He who is faithfully analysing anti-epileptic drugs is doing far more than studying anti-epileptic drugs." For these drugs not only serve to prevent epileptic fits and thus advance the treatment of epilepsy, they are also effective in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias and trigeminal neuralgia. Furthermore, clinical pharmacologists consider anti-epi leptic drugs as model drugs in pharmacokinetics and pharmocodynamics, since reliable methods are available for their determination and their effects and side effects can be defined. The methods of estimating of drugs in body fluids provide a tool that enables us to throw light on many obscure relationships in pharmaceutical treatment. Now that we can study the pharmacokinetics and interaction of drugs in man, many hypotheses based on clinical experience alone may well be eliminated or corroborated. The grow ing body of knowledge will make us more careful about the administration of drugs in combination. Now that we can study how biological parameters interfere with drug action, we may perhaps proceed to the scientific analysis of many clinical observations that suggest the importance of such factors as age, sex, menstrual cycle, pregnancy, fever, diet, stress, sport, climate, and altitude."

Epileptic disorders need treatment for many years or even for life, and this makes a thorough understanding of the pharmacokinetics and possible hazards and side effects of the drugs used in treatment mandatory. During recent decades our knowledge in this field has considerably increased, not least as a result of the development of specific and sensitive methods for the determination of anti epileptic agents in biological material. The clinical pharmacology of this group of drugs has been studied extensively and can today be regarded as well established. This does not necessarily mean that drug treatment of epilepsy is without problems. For example, it has recently been shown that one of the newer anti epileptic drugs, greeted with great enthusiasm by clinicians, may in rare instances induce serious damage to the liver and the pancreas, and seems even to have a certain teratogenic potential. Clinical problems should be understood as a challenge to the experimental pharmacologist, who should try to find explanations for the clinical hazards, and, if possible, show new ways in which better drugs might be developed. In recent years interest has focused on the importance of the inhibitory transmitter 'l'-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the pathophysiology of epilepsy, and there have been a series of attempts to find useful antiepileptic drugs among substances interfering with GABA metabolism in the CNS."

Franz Conrad von Hotzendorf, as chief of the Austro-Hungarian general staff, was the foremost proponent of preventive war as the means of solving both the foreign and domestic problems of the multinational Habsburg Monarchy in one grand action. The combination of Conrad's insistence on war and Serbia's official, and frequently reckless unofficial, nationalist policies set the stage for the outbreak of a Balkan conflict that would shake Europe to its very foundations and change the world forever.

"The Command of Grace" sets forth a bold new critical initiative in theological apologetics, one that advances a fundamental reassessment of theological self-understanding and method today, especially in its attentiveness to the present reality of God in revelation. Many recently predominating trends have tended to treat theological truth as something cognitively self-guaranteeing ('tauto-theological') within doctrinal or other theoretical domains. Against this, and drawing on the philosophical heritage as well importantly on Jewish thought, the book seeks to revive for fundamental theological questioning other basic modes of human attentiveness which, under an array of 'cognitively mono-visional' influences, have become largely lost to theology since 1800, even though they continue to thrive in the life of faith in the church itself. These are: a??causala?? attentiveness encountered through the faculties of bodily sensibility; and 'appetitive' or 'motive' attentiveness encountered in the faculty of desire. Especially crucial here is the rejuvenation of the primacy of 'motive reasoning' (reasoning with regard to motivations and desires) for theology's apologetical self-understanding, in addition to its normal engagement with 'cognitive reasoning' (reasoning with regard to percepts and concepts). If God in his transcendent 'Godness' meets us in revelation not at the margins of the speculative intellect in the form of a denotatum for cognitive apprehension, but rather at the very center of embodied life in the form of a summons to motivated action, then theology must seek to be attentive to God through all the endowed faculties of embodied-rational life: cognitive, sensible, and motive-appetitive.

"The Command of Grace" sets forth a bold new critical initiative in theological apologetics which advocates a fundamental reassessment of theological self-understanding and method today, especially in its attentiveness to the present reality of God in revelation.It is predicated on what, through a sustained and penetrating critique of our philosophical and theological history, the book shows to be a still profoundly pervasive analytical 'spirit of idealism', under whose influences theology has in a wide array of ways come to exercise itself predominantly within a kind of cognitivist mono-vision. Theology has thereby not only become self-guaranteeing within itself ('tauto-theological'), thus forfeiting its rationally rigorous edge, but has also inadvertently violated its indispensable incarnational (embodied) ground. Against this, the book seeks, through a rigorously critical attentiveness to rational integrity, to revive for fundamental theological questioning two basic modes of human awareness, which under the aforementioned influences have become largely lost to theology over the past two centuries, even though they continue to thrive in the life of faith in the church itself.These are: causal attentiveness encountered through the faculties of bodily sensibility; and appetitive or motive attentiveness encountered in the faculty of desire. If God in his very 'Godness' meets us in revelation at the very centre of created life, and reveals himself only here as the hope of the life to come, then theology must again seek to be attentive to God in the full contingency of embodied-rational life in all of its constitutive faculties: sensible, cognitive and appetitive.

Dieses Buch enthiilt Arbeiten, die als Vortrag auf dem ersten deutsch- deutschen neurologisch-psychiatrischen Symposium gehalten wur- den. Das Symposium war fiir die deutsche und speziell die Berliner Psychiatrie und Neurologie ein auBerordentliches und bemerkens- wertes Ereignis. Zum einen sollte der Griindung der Psychiatrischen- und Nervenklinik der Charite vor 125 Jahren gedacht werden. Dies war ein Werk Wilhelm Griesingers, der nur zwei Jahre spiiter, niim- lich 1867 auch Begriinder der "Berliner Medizinisch-Psychologi- schen Gesellschaft" war. Die Gesellschaft, die spiiter die Bezeichnung "Berliner Gesellschaft fiir Psychiatrie und Neurologie" erhielt, hatte bis zum Kriegsende fast stets im Horsaal der Nervenklink der Charite getagt, war 1947 neu gegriindet worden, hatte sich aber aufgrund der politischen Verhiiltnisse in Deutschland und in unserer Stadt 1953 geteilt. Seit der friedlichen Revolution des 9. November 1989 mit der MauerOffnung hatten sich schnell wissenschaftliche und personliche Kontakte zwischen den Universitiitskliniken beider Stadthiilften er- geben. Die schon liinger geplante J ubiliiumsveranstaltung der Psych- iatrischen und Nervenklinik der Charite konnte jetzt in ihrem Pro- gramm erweitert werden. Sie fand als erste gemeinsam veranstaltete wissenschaftliche Sitzung der beiden Berliner Gesellschaften fiir Psychiatrie und Neurologie statt und wurde so zu einem bewegen- den Erlebnis. Wohl zum letzten Mal muBte von dem vorbereitenden Komitee (insbesondere D. Janz, H. W. Kolmel, K. -J. Neumiirker, H. A. F. Schul- ze, M. Seidel) ein gewisser Proporz zwischen Sprechern und Mode- ratoren aus BRD und DDR beachtet werden.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Neuere Deutsche Literatur, Note: 2,0, Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universitat Greifswald (Institut fur deutsche Philologie), Veranstaltung: Exilliteratur, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese wissenschaftliche Arbeit innerhalb des Hauptseminars, Exilliteratur'' handelt uber den historischen Roman, Castellio gegen Calvin oder Ein Gewissen gegen die Gewalt'' vom Schriftsteller Stefan Zweig und soll dem Leser die vielen Facetten dieses Werkes naher bringen. Im Bezug auf das Seminarthema nimmt die Person Stefan Zweig eine wichtige Rolle ein, da dieser bereits zu Lebzeiten ein weltberuhmter Schriftsteller war und das Exil wahlte, um den Repressionen der aufsteigenden Nationalsozialisten in Osterreich und Deutschland zu entkommen. Er unterscheidet sich jedoch von vielen anderen Exilschriftstellern in der Tatsache, dass er die Anfange der faschistischen Diktaturen noch hautnah miterlebte.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich Geschichte - Weltgeschichte - Fruhgeschichte, Antike, Note: 2, Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universitat Greifswald (Institut fur Altertumswissenschaften), Veranstaltung: Die Entstehung der antiken politischen Theorie und Verfassungstheorie, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese wissenschaftliche Arbeit innerhalb des Hauptseminars, Die Entstehung der antiken politischen Theorie und Verfassungstheorie'' soll die Thematik des Versuchs einer Agrarreform von Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus komplex darstellen und dem Leser veranschaulichen, wie sich die Krise der romischen Agrarwirtschaft auf die romische Gesellschaft auswirkte, welche geschichtlichen Umstande Tiberius Gracchus zum politischen Kampf fur eine Agrarreform bewegten und letztendlich die Folgen des Reformversuchs untersuchen. Im Bezug auf das Seminarthema nimmt die Zeit der Gracchen eine durchaus wichtige Rolle ein, da mit ihr die romische Gesellschaft in eine schwere Krise geriet, die haufig als die Epoche der Romischen Burgerkriege bezeichnet wird. Diese Krise endete mit dem Untergang der Romischen Republik und der Einrichtung einer Monarchie in Form eines Prinzipats unter dem ersten romischen Kaiser Augustus. Als Einstieg beginnt diese Arbeit mit der Krise der romischen Agrarwirtschaft, danach wird der Kreis der Reformer vorgestellt und schliesslich auf die von Tiberius angestrebte lex Sempronia agraria und deren Folgen eingegangen. Den Kern dieser Arbeit stellt in den letzten Kapiteln die Untersuchung der Beweggrunde fur die politische Agitation des Tiberius Gracchus an Hand von Quellen dar. Uberdies wird das Ziel der angestrebten Reformen genauer betrachtet und die Bedeutung der Gracchen fur die romische Geschichte herausgestellt. Die Quellenlage zu diesem Thema ist durchaus umfangreich, da die antiken Geschichtsschreiber Appianos und Plutarch zahlreiche Schriften uber die Bruder Tiberius und Gaius Gracchus verfassten. Allerdings lebten beide Personen weit nach den Ereigni

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Altere Deutsche Literatur, Mediavistik, Note: 3,0, Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universitat Greifswald (Institut fur deutsche Philologie), Veranstaltung: Der Artusstoff zwischen Historia und Mythos, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese wissenschaftliche Arbeit innerhalb des Hauptseminars, Der Artusstoff zwischen Historia und Mythos'' handelt von den historischen Hintergrunden der, Historia Regum Britanniae'' von Geoffrey of Monmouth. In Bezug auf das Seminarthema nimmt Geoffrey of Monmouth und seine, Historia'' eine wichtige Rolle ein, da er den Artusstoff als erster in einem umfangreichen Masse aufgriff und in seinem Lebenswerk verarbeitete. Den Einstieg dieser Arbeit stellt eine kurze Einfuhrung in die Geschichtsschreibung des Mittelalters dar, die fur das Gesamtverstandnis unverzichtbar ist. Am Anschluss findet sich eine kurze Darstellung uber das Leben und Werk des Verfassers. Den Kern dieser Arbeit stellt eine umfassende Untersuchung der historischen Hintergrunde der, Historia Regum Britanniae'' dar, bei der primar herausgestellt werden soll, in welchem zeitlichen Kontext das Werk entstanden ist, welche Intention mit ihm verfolgt wurde und welche Quellen dem Autor vorlagen. Abschliessend wird untersucht, welche Bedeutung dem Werk damals und heute beigemessen wird und wie die damalige Kritik an der, Historia'' zu bewerten ist. Bei der Ausarbeitung wurde neben der seminarbegleitenden Literatur auch auf zahlreiche Sekundarliteratur zuruckgegriffen. Als Kernliteratur dienten unter anderem die Veroffentlichungen, Studien zum literarischen Patronat in England des 12. Jahrhunderts'' von Walter F. Schirmer und Ulrich Broich, sowie, Englische Grundungssagen von Geoffrey of Monmouth bis zur Renaissance'' von Dr. Hans Matte

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Gesch. Europa - Deutschland - I. Weltkrieg, Weimarer Republik, Note: 2, Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universitat Greifswald (Historisches Institut), Veranstaltung: Polen und das Deutsche Reich im Ersten Weltkrieg, 15 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese wissenschaftliche Arbeit innerhalb des Hauptseminars, Polen und das Deutsche Reich im Ersten Weltkrieg'' soll die Thematik der deutschen Ostfront im Ersten Weltkrieg komplex darstellen und dem Leser veranschaulichen, welche Planungen und Ziele es vor dem Ausbruch des Weltkriegs gab, wie sich der Kriegsverlauf fur die Soldaten des deutschen Feldheeres entwickelte und letztendlich wie man die Ereignisse der Ostfront und deren Folgen ruckblickend beurteilen kann. Im Bezug auf das Seminarthema nimmt der Krieg an der deutschen Ostfront und dessen Nachwirkungen eine zentrale Rolle ein, da sowohl das Deutsche Reich als auch Polen von den Folgen des Krieges im Osten betroffen waren. Im Kriegsjahr 1916 proklamierten Osterreich-Ungarn und deutsche Kaiserreich das Konigreich Polen, welches man in erste Linie als Massnahme gegen Russland sehen muss. Mit dem Versailler Vertrag von 1919 musste das Deutsche Reich grosse Teile Westpreussens, Posens und Schlesiens an das nun international anerkannte Polen abtreten. Der Konflikt um diese Regionen sollte im Jahr 1939 mit dem Einmarsch der Wehrmacht und der Roten Armee seinen traurigen Hohepunkt erreichen, dessen Tragweite wir teilweise noch bis heute zu spuren bekommen. Als Einstieg beginnt diese Arbeit mit der politischen Situation und den strategischen Uberlegungen in Deutschland bis zum Jahr 1914. Den Kern dieser Ausarbeitung stellt der konkrete Krieg an der deutschen Ostfront dar, mit Schwerpunkt auf den Kriegsjahren 1914 und 1915. Im Fazit werden dann abschliessend Einzelaspekte hinterfragt und aus der Sicht des Autors beantwortet. Als Kernliteratur diente vor allem die Veroffentlichung von Gerhard P. Gross mit d

Auf dem Feld der klinischen Epilepsie-Forschung treibt die nosographische Methode zum zweitenmal eine reiche ElUte. Nachdem sie vor der Jahrhundertwende dazu gedient hatte, die auBeren Grenzen gegenUber anderen Anfallskrankheiten abzusteeken, hat sie seit der Jahrhundertwende dazu verholfen, den inneren Bereich in vielfaltige Krankheitsformen aufzusehlieBen. Von einer besonderen Form von Epilepsie wird gefordert, daB sie sich von anderen Formen durch Symptomatologie und Verlauf, sowie in pathophysiologischer und therapeutischer Hinsicht unterscheide. Bezeichnenderweise wird auf die im alten Konzept von den nosologischen Entitaten enthaltene Forderung auf eine gemeinsame . Ktiologie und pathologische Anatomie verzichtet. An deren Stelle ist im neuen Konzept von den nosologischen Formen der Anspruch auf eine gemeinsame Pathophysiologie und Therapie getreten. Unter diesem Wandel der Aspekte ist ein klinisches System der Epilepsien ent- standen, in dem altersgebundene und altersungebundene, generalisierte und partielle, eentreneephale und foeale Formen untersehieden werden. In diesem System nimmt die vorliegende Arbeit von KRUSE einen genau bestimmbaren Platz ein. Sie behandelt monographisch eine Variante der altersgebundenen Petit Mal-Epilepsien, die noso- logisch zwischen der Propulsiv-Petit Mal-Epilepsie und der Pyknolepsie steht. Sie fUllt daher eine LUcke aus, die erst fUhlbar geworden ist, nachdem diese beiden, sie flankierenden Krankheitsformen nach Erkrankungsalter, Anfallsform, EEG-Muster, Verlaufsweise und Behandlung gut definierbar geworden waren. Ihre Zwischenstel- lung kommt auch in der von KRUSE gewahlten Bezeichnung des Anfallstypus als "myoklonisch-astatisches Petit Mal" zum Ausdruek.
