Through both longer essays and shorter case studies, this book examines the relationship of European women from various countries and backgrounds to collecting, in order to explore the social practices and material and visual cultures of collecting in eighteenth-century Europe. It recovers their lives and examines their interests, their methodologies, and their collections and objects-some of which have rarely been studied before. The book also considers women's role as producers, that is, creators of objects that were collected. Detailed examination of the artefacts-both visually, and in relation to their historical contexts-exposes new ways of thinking about collecting in relation to the arts and sciences in eighteenth-century Europe. The book is interdisciplinary in its makeup and brings together scholars from a wide range of fields. It will be of interest to those working in art history, material and visual culture, history of collecting, history of science, literary studies, women's studies, gender studies, and art conservation.

"Nature's Choice: What Science Reveals About the Biological Origins of Sexual Orientation" offers both a comprehensive review of the scientific literature and a fresh perspective on this complex and politically charged subject. Respected researcher, speaker, and author Dr. Cheryl L. Weill offers readers of all backgrounds an enlightening analysis of findings from over twenty years of research on the factor of biology in the determination of sexual orientation. "Nature's Choice: What Science Reveals About the Biological Origins of Sexual Orientation" brilliantly distills complicated studies and research findings dealing with brain anatomy, genetics, sex-typical behavior in children, auditory, startle reflex, and many other areas. Spanning a wide range of important topics including human sexual development and the effects of hormones, Ellis and Ames' Gestational Neurohormonal Theory, the ins, outs, and implications of how scientific research is funded, and a model of the role of testosterone in determining human sexuality, "Nature's Choice" is an exciting book to educate and inspire readers from scientific and non-scientific backgrounds equally.

There is something about the Creation that always haunts me. Our own beginning within it was nearly six or seven thousand years ago. Yet the entire span of time after it might be viewed as only cluster of ages. My own life being placed at the end of these ages is inconspicuous. Nevertheless I sense there is a significance that links my life with Creation's earliest moments. When I search my feelings, I begin to think that all our lives began when the first worlds were born. I sense that our souls are timeless, and that our identities stretch from the first moments to our present. I imagine that everyone and everything was started with the initial chaos. Imagine yourself as the first thing created. Imagine that you are what is described with the first words in Genesis. If these described you, what could you imagine about that first day? How could you describe what is indescribable? You are left with only feelings. Feelings without intelligence. This book is a study into how these emotions have been transformed into our sense for spirituality.

Hammo'ad means "the appointed times." Its first reference is from Torah as the prescribed times for the Holy Festivals and Sabbath. This word was repeatedly used in the Salkinson-Ginsberg, "Hebrew New Testament," when referring to events in the Gospels of the Messiah. This Gospel publication is an English translation from that Hebrew text. It is also formulated as a combined narrative from the four Gospels as a single testimony. Along with this it is arranged with an historical order of their events. As such it permits the reader to better conceptualize the outlay of the Messiah's ministry. For comparative purposes, each verse is posted with its corresponding text from the Aramaic-Peshitta and Hebrew-Delitzsch New Testaments. Both of which are posted herein as Hebrew script. The purpose for their inclusion is to further emphasize the Jewish nature of this Gospel narrative.

Author Anita Wills, spent over thirty years reconstructing her families lost history. This book is about those in her family who had extraordinary achievements, such as Elijah Johnson, one of the settlers of Liberia. The search is complicated by the multiracial lines that Ms. Wills had to work with. The task is to document the oral history passed down through so many generations. The result is an amazing family history of a people who were labeled, Indian, Mulatto, Colored, Negro, black, and now African American. They are a people who intermixed and married in the Great Valley Region of Pennsylvania. The stories are of Colonial America's people of color, who are the Mosaic that is America.

Notes and documents is 294 pages, with Table of contents, Appendix, Bibliography, Endnotes, and Index. The book chronicles are of an African American Family who were designated as Free Persons of Color, in Colonial Virginia. They were Virginia's own Creole Population.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich BWL - Unternehmensfuhrung, Management, Organisation, Hochschule RheinMain, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Betrachtet man den heutigen beruflichen Alltag fallt auf, dass Unternehmen vermehrt Internet-Plattformen wie Webforen oder Social Networks nutzen, um ihre Ziele zu erreichen. Einerseits, um sich nach aussen zu prasentieren, um Meinungen zu beobachten und Geruchte zu verfolgen. Teilweise streuen Unternehmen diese sogar selbst, um Neueinfuhrungen interessant, beziehungsweise bekannt zu machen. Anderseits vernetzen sich Mitarbeiter unternehmensintern, um Informationen und Wissen auszutauschen. Wikis oder Blogs werden installiert, um die Kommunikation zu verbessern. Auch extern bedienen sich Unternehmen langst des World Wide Web, um Kontakt zu Kunden oder Lieferanten aufzunehmen. Aus diesen Entwicklungen ging das Konzept von Enterprise 2.0 hervor, welches infolge der steigenden Internet-Nutzung in den vergangenen Jahren eine immer grossere Bedeutung gewann. Ein einheitliches Verstandnis, beziehungsweise eine exakte Definition, was Enterprise 2.0 genau ausmacht, gibt es bislang aber nicht. Altere Fachliteratur aus den Jahren 2006 und 2007 sieht in Enterprise 2.0 lediglich den Einsatz von Web 2.0-Tools wie Wikis oder Blogs. Aktuelle Fachliteratur, an der sich diese Studie orientiert, besagt, dass das Konzept von Enterprise 2.0 weit uber den Einsatz von Wikis oder Blogs hinausgeht. Dieser Ansatz ist zwar unter Experten mittlerweile verbreitet, aber langst noch nicht in Unternehmen anerkannt. Dieser teils angedeutete, teils als unvermeidbar prophezeite kulturelle Wandel in Organisation und Arbeitsablaufen des Unternehmens, steht im Zentrum der Untersuchung dieser Studie. Des Weiteren versucht die Forschungsgruppe der Hochschule RheinMain Vorteile beziehungsweise Risiken von Enterprise 2.0 aufzudecken. Auch der Entwicklungsstand des Konzeptes Enterprise 2.0 in Unternehmen wird untersucht, ebenso wie das momentane Verstandnis di

Die Senkung der neonatalen Mortalitat und Morbiditat ist eine in- terdisziplinare Aufgabe von Geburtsmedizin und Neonatologie. Die gunstige Entwicklung im letzten Jahrzehnt wurde erreicht durch die luckenlose Kontrolle von der fruhen Gestation an, uber die ein- gehende Dberwachung und Leitung der Geburt und die Intensiv- medizin fUr Risiko-Neugeborene bis hin zum Vorsorgeprogramm fUr Kinder, d. h. mit den Mitteln einer eingehenden personellen Be- treuung und einem hohen technisch-apparativen Aufwand. Beson- ders deutlich konnte die hohe neonatale Sterblichkeit von Fruhge- borenen verringert werden. So uberleben heute Kinder mit einem Geburtsgewicht von weniger als 1500 g zu mehr als 85%. Allerdings sind hierbei Geburtshelfer und Neonatologen vor neue Herausfor- derungen gestellt: Der Geburtszeitpunkt sollte, soweit vertretbar, hinausgezogert werden, die Geburt unter dem Gesichtspunkt der aul3ersten Schonung des Kindes erfolgen. Fur den Neonatologen gestalten sich Emahrung, Flussigkeits-und Elektrolytbilanzierung bei extrem unreifen Fruhgeborenen besonders schwierig. Eine Rei- he invasiver Techniken, z. B. endotracheale Intubation und Beat- mung, zentraler Venenkatheter, sind fUr das Dberleben erforderlich. Sie weisen eine erhohte Komplikationsrate auf. Eine aul3erordentli- che Bedeutung kommt in dies em Zusammenhang der bei Fruhgebo- renen haufig zu beobachtenden intrakraniellen Blutung zu, die einen wesentlichen Einflul3 auf Mortalitat und Morbiditat hat und die Langzeitprognose jedes einzelnen Kindes entscheidend beein- flul3t. Ihre Vermeidung und Behandlung sind ungeloste Probleme. Durch den Einsatz der Computertomographie und neuerdings durch die technische Weiterentwicklung der Ultraschalldiagnostik sind wahrend der letzten Jahre bemerkenswerte Erkenntnisse uber die Entstehung, Lokalisation, Inzidenz und den Verlauf von intra- kraniellen Blutungen gewonnen worden.

The significant strides made during the past decade in neonatal medicine are based largely upon the provision of intensive perinatal care to the parturient, her fetus, and the newborn. In addition to technologic advances in the bioelec- tronic monitoring of the fetus and newborn, the introduction of noninvasive methods to monitor oxygenation, the pharma- cologic manipulation ofthe ductus arteriosus and pulmonary vasculature, and the use of ultrasonographic diagnosis of congenital heart defects and other lesions, intensive efforts by neonatal specialists throughout the world have also contri- buted to the decline in neonatal and infant mortality. Professors Wille and Obladen have provided an authoritative manual outlining intensive care of newborns and the ways in which the science of neonatal medicine, the technology of the 1980 s, and the art of application have resulted in the practice of neonatal intensive care at the Kinderklinik of the University of Heidelberg. The English translation resulted from the success of the German edition and will serve well the needs of the English-speaking student and practitioner of neonatal intensive care. T. Allen Merrit, M.
