Originally compiled and published in 1922, this volume contains three studies on Early Greek Thought: E. Hofmann's Qua Ratione; J. W. Beardslee's Fifth-Century Greek Literature; and O. JOhrens's Die Fragmente des Anaxagoras.

U.S. Navy Supply Corps Ensign Ross Hofmann had no idea what was in store for him when he arrived at Cavite Naval Base in October 1941. Two months later, Japanese forces struck the Philippines, destroying the base and forcing U.S. personnel to retreat to Bataan. There, Hofmann participated in salvage missions around Manila and joined a makeshift unit of airmen and sailors to fight a Japanese force that landed nearby. In March 1942, he travelled to Cebu to run supplies through the blockade of Bataan and Corregidor. Soon after his arrival, the Japanese landed on Cebu, forcing the Americans to retreat again. Hiking through jungles and crossing dangerous waters in barely seaworthy craft, Hofmann avoided capture and reached an American base in Mindanao. He received orders to establish a seaplane base on Lake Lanao. As Japanese troops landed nearby, two seaplanes returning from Corregidor stopped to refuel, one of them hitting a rock on take-off. In a harrowing race against the enemy advance, Hofmann and others worked feverishly to fix the plane and escape before the Japanese converged on Lake Lanao.

EJB Reviews 1989 offer the collection of all reviews published in the European Journal of Biochemistry in one handy volume. This series of review articles by leading scientists covers emerging and rapidly growing fields of research in fundamental as well as in applied areas of biochemistry, such as medicine, biotechnology, agriculture and nutrition. Novel methodological and technological approaches which stimulate biochemical research are also included. All authors review their field in a very critical, selective, evaluative manner, with emphasis on interdisciplinary aspects wherever possible.

In the mid-1980s the "European Journal of Biochemistry" set out to publish review articles. The enterprise proved successful, resulting in high-level reviews written by well-known scientists appearing in the "Journal." The reviews represent emerging and rapidly growing fields of research in fundamental as well as applied areas of biochemistry, such as medicine, biotechnology, agriculture and nutrition. Novel methodological and technological approaches which stimulate biochemical research are also included. The authors of the reviews are explicitely asked to be critical, selective, evaluative and interdisciplinary oriented. The reviews should encourage young scientists to think independently and creatively, and inform active investigators about the state of the art in a given field.

Global environmental change (including climate change, biodiversity loss, changes in hydrological and biogeochemical cycles, and intensive exploitation of natural resources) is having significant impacts on the world's oceans. This handbook advances knowledge of the structure and functioning of marine ecosystems, and their past, present, and future responses to physical and anthropogenic forcing. It illustrates how climate and humans impact marine ecosystems, providing a comprehensive review of the physical and ecological processes that structure marine ecosystems as well as the observation, experimentation, and modelling approaches required for their study. Recognizing the interactive roles played by humans in using marine resources and in responding to global changes in marine systems, the book includes chapters on the human dimensions of marine ecosystem changes and on effective management approaches in this era of rapid change. A final section reviews the state of the art in predicting the responses of marine ecosystems to future global change scenarios with the intention of informing both future research agendas and marine management policy.
Marine Ecosystems and Global Change provides a detailed synthesis of the work conducted under the auspices of the Global Ocean Ecosystems Dynamics (GLOBEC) program. This research spans two decades, and represents the largest, multi-disciplinary, international effort focused on understanding the impacts of external forcing on the structure and dynamics of global marine ecosystems.

Mit diesem Band ist die Reihe "Handbuch der Kaltetechnik" vollstandig; damit steht dem Ingenieur das notwendige Rustzeug in aktueller, praxisgerechter Form zur Verfugung. Es werden die Vorgange der Warmeubertragung behandelt, das notwendige Wissen zur Bemesssung von Apparaten zur Warmeubertragung vermittelt, sowie deren Konstruktion und das Betriebsverhalten beschrieben. Apparate und Maschinen, die in der Kaltetechnik oft Bestandteile von Anlagen der Warmeubertragung sind, wie z.B. Luftkuhler, Ruckkuhlwerke, Ventilatoren u.a. werden mit ihren Eigenschaften dargestellt. Angaben uber die wichtigsten Fluide und deren Eigenschaften werden vermittelt. Das Werk liefert uber die theoretischen Grundlagen hinaus vor allem Wissen, das sich in der Praxis bewahrt hat, bietet daher dem Leser einen einmaligen Erfahrungsschatz."

Regional integration and cooperation of Southern African states was initiated and is furthered with the goal to promote and establish peace, security and stability in the region. Securing scarce water and energy resources are amongst the biggest challenges facing regional and countries' national security today. Socio-economic dynamics as well as climate change impact the future demand and availability of natural resources in the region. Discrepancies between resource supply and demand are potential security threats. To reach its security objectives, the Southern African Development Community (SADe practises and facilitates multilateral resource diplomacy. Trans-boundary water management, regional energy resource cooperation and the establishment of mechanisms as part of its overall security architecture are important means to achieve its goal. After having outlined the necessity for multilateral approaches in the area of ensuring security of water and energy supply, tools of resource diplomacy in the region are discussed. The book concludes with an assessment of the practiced diplomacy from a security perspective.
