Zutot 2002 (Hardcover, P. ed.): Shlomo Berger, Michael Brocke, Irene E. Zwiep Zutot 2002 (Hardcover, P. ed.)

R2,403 Discovery Miles 24 030 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

"Zutot: Perspectives on Jewish Culture" aims to fill a gap that has become more and more conspicuous among the wealth of scholarly periodicals in the field of Jewish Studies. Whereas existing journals provide space to medium - and large sized articles, they neglect the small but poignant contributions, which may be as important as the extended, detailed study. The yearbook "Zutot" serves as a platform for small but incisive contributions, and provides them with a distinct context. The substance of these contributions is derived from larger perspectives and, though not always presented in an exhaustive way, will have an impact on contemporary discussions. "Zutot" covers Jewish Culture in its broadest sense, i.e. encompassing various academic disciplines - literature, languages and linguistics, philosophy, art, sociology, politics and history - and reflects binary oppositions such as religious and secular, high and low, written and oral, male and female culture.

Thinking, Childhood, and Time: Contemporary Perspectives on the Politics of Education is an interdisciplinary exploration of the notion of childhood and its place in a philosophical education. Contributors consider children's experiences of time, space, embodiment, and thinking. By acknowledging Hannah Arendt's notion that every child brings a new beginning into the world, they address the question of how educators can be more responsive to the Otherness that childhood offers, while assuming that most educational models follow either a chronological model of child development or view children as human beings that are lacking. This book explores childhood as a philosophical concept in children, adults, and even beyond human beings-Childhood as a (forgotten) dimension of the world. Contributors also argue that a pedagogy that does not aim for an "exodus of childhood," but rather responds to the arrival of a new human being responsibly (dialogically), fosters a deeper appreciation of the newness that children bring in order to sensitize us for our own Childhood as adults as well and allow us to welcome other forms of childhood in the world. As a whole, this book argues that the experience of natality, such as the beginning of life, is not chronologically determined, but rather can occur more than once in a human life and beyond. Scholars of philosophy, education, psychology, and childhood studies will find this book particularly useful.

R1,285 Discovery Miles 12 850 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

At first glance, Orthodox Judaism is not compatible with the prevailing world view of equal treatment for all people, regardless of their race, gender or religion. But modern Orthodox Jews share the sense that egalitarianism is a positive moral value, so they cannot simply dismiss this contemporary ethos as incompatible with their faith. In a range of ways and variety of perspectives from the leading Orthodox scholars in the field, this collection of essays explores the affinities and disaffinities between egalitarianism and Jewish tradition.

"This visual - and artistically beautiful - format differentiates Einstein: The Man And His Mind from all previous books about him" - Amazon reader review "Gary Berger and Michael DiRuggerio's photographic exploration of Einstein is a indubitably a coffee table book, but in its highest form. It's huge (34 x 26 cm) and contains a collection of beautiful imagery." “massive, well-produced ... Some of these images are striking photographs of Einstein, a good few of which I've never seen before.” "the kind of small, but interesting contribution to the Einstein story we can find here." "a remarkable book…. I've never seen anything quite like it... a fascinating find.” - https://popsciencebooks.blogspot.com Albert Einstein is known by name and image throughout the world to people of all ages. He is probably the most well-known scientist of all time. Even though most people have only a vague idea of what he did, the attraction remains. The raison d'être for this book is to convey a sense of familiarity with Einstein as a real person and with the essence of his contributions. This is accomplished through annotated full-page photographs of Einstein that tell the story of his scientific life. The book is written for the general public. It may appeal to Einstein scholars as well. This visual - and artistically beautiful - format differentiates Einstein: The Man And His Mind from all previous books about him. The images (mostly signed portrait photos) are supplemented by a selection of 53 rare letters, manuscripts, books, journals 51 original rare portraits 4 equations in Einstein's handwriting provided by what is likely the largest private Einstein collection in existence. This project has the support of two private US foundations The Sterling Foundation and The Antonia & Vladimer Kulaev Cultural Heritage Fund, Inc. All royalties will be donated to the Albert Einstein Archives at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Researchers' knowledge of gliomas continues to advance rapidly at both the basic and translational levels, and Gliomas provides a thorough overview of the evolving fields of tumor biology and clinical medicine as they relate to our understanding of brain tumors. Gliomas reviews the current paradigms that underlie these fields, beginning with the molecular epidemiology of glioma susceptibility and prognosis through population-based science and genome-wide association studies. The book's discussion of imaging modalities extends beyond advances in anatomical imaging to include metabolic and physiological studies. This work provides thorough discussion of the clinical view of tumors, ranging from the presentation of the patient to surgical management, and covers all therapeutic options for patient care, including chemotherapy, targeted molecular therapies, immunotherapies, and even personalized approaches to impact the set of lesions. Additionally, the book discusses radiotherapy with regard to the many options available to treat patients using myriad fractionated techniques with various sources. Finally, Gliomas reviews issues specific to the quality of life for patients, and techniques for maximizing the effect of caregivers. Edited and authored by premier researchers from around the world, Gliomas is a comprehensive reference for clinicians and researchers seeking the most up-to-date information on gliomas, and a guide to the best ways to effectively manage glioma patients and their care.

One doesn't have to be Jewish to recognize the words which have made their way into every fold of popular language: Chutzpah, Mensch, Tokhes, Mishmash, Nudge, Shtick, Schmaltzy, Schlep, Icky, and so on. Then there are phrases whose meaning and syntax are borrowed from Yiddish: "bite your tongue," "drop dead," "enough already', and "excuse the expression." This hilarious, concise guide includes chapters on the Basic Descriptions of People (the good, the bad, the ugly, and the goofy), the Fine Art of Cursing, Juicy Words and Phrases, Exclamations and Exasperations, and the Fine Art of Blessing.

R1,063 Discovery Miles 10 630 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Originally published in 1980, the essays in this volume analyse a family of phenomena in advanced industrial societies for which neither liberal nor Marxist theories provide a systematic explanation. Berger and Piore argue that these phenomena represent a structural solution to the economic and political problems of distributing economic uncertainty and preserving political stability. The discontinuities in industrial societies are not the product of incomplete modernisation but of political and economic choices that perpetuate and recreate segmentation to protect critical political and economic mechanisms. Studies by Piore examine the labour market and its relationship to technological innovation and capital investment, whilst those by Berger explore the social foundation of political parties and the formation of state policy as it emerges from competitive political forces.

Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2003 im Fachbereich Elektrotechnik, Note: 1,0, Universitat der Bundeswehr Munchen, Neubiberg (Institut fur Automatisierungs- und Regelungstechnik), 16 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Bei modernen Anlagen und Apparaten treten uberwachungstechnische Aspekte mehr und mehr in den Vordergrund. Das Ziel ist nicht mehr nur die Entwicklung funktionierender und zuverlassig arbeitender Systeme, sondern immer haufiger auch die Implementierung einer raschen und verlasslichen Fehlererkennung und Auswertung. Nur dadurch ist gewahrleistet mogliche Verluste im Fehlerfall - durch zu langen Funktionsausfall oder etwaige Folgeschaden - gering zu halten. Als Beispiel genugt bereits ein kurzer Blick auf die Veranderungen in der Kraftfahrzeugtechnik. Immer komplexere Aggregate und Fahrzeugsysteme erfordern eine genauso komplexe Uberwachung. Beschranken sich in alteren Fahrzeugen Warnsysteme meist nur auf Oltemperatur und -druck, so finden sich bei modernen Kraftfahrzeugen eine Vielzahl von Warn- und Fehleranzeigen. Aufgetretene Fehler werden gar zusammen mit verschiedenen Parametern wie Geschwindigkeit und Drehzahl in einem Fehlerspeicher abgelegt und konnen zur Analyse mit Computern (Bild 1.1) ausgelesen werden. Bei schwerwiegenden Fehlern im Fahrbetrieb aktiviert eine Steuereinheit ein so genanntes Notlaufprogramm und schutzt den Motor so vor Beschadigung. Bild 1.1: Kraftfahrzeug-Diagnosegerat KTS650 (Bosch) Bild 1.1 in Downloaddatei enthalten] Besonders wichtig ist eine automatisierte Fehlererkennung bei Systemen, die weitgehend autark - also ohne bedienendes Personal vor Ort - arbeiten. Solche Systeme konnen weit abgelegen sein und von einer Zentralen Schaltwarte kontrolliert und gesteuert werden. Im Fehle rfall ist hier ein schnelles Eingreifen - gegebenenfalls uber Fernleittechnik - entscheidend, um grossere Schaden zu verhindern. Solch ein weitgehend autark arbeitendes System stellt auch eine Pipeline dar (Bild 1.2). Hie
