Cell Organelles (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1992): Reinhold G. Herrmann Cell Organelles (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1992)

The compartmentation of genetic information is a fundamental feature of the eukaryotic cell. The metabolic capacity of a eukaryotic (plant) cell and the steps leading to it are overwhelmingly an endeavour of a joint genetic cooperation between nucleus/cytosol, plastids, and mitochondria. Alter ation of the genetic material in anyone of these compartments or exchange of organelles between species can seriously affect harmoniously balanced growth of an organism. Although the biological significance of this genetic design has been vividly evident since the discovery of non-Mendelian inheritance by Baur and Correns at the beginning of this century, and became indisputable in principle after Renner's work on interspecific nuclear/plastid hybrids (summarized in his classical article in 1934), studies on the genetics of organelles have long suffered from the lack of respectabil ity. Non-Mendelian inheritance was considered a research sideline ifnot a freak by most geneticists, which becomes evident when one consults common textbooks. For instance, these have usually impeccable accounts of photosynthetic and respiratory energy conversion in chloroplasts and mitochondria, of metabolism and global circulation of the biological key elements C, N, and S, as well as of the organization, maintenance, and function of nuclear genetic information. In contrast, the heredity and molecular biology of organelles are generally treated as an adjunct, and neither goes as far as to describe the impact of the integrated genetic system."

Since production, treatment and disposal of anthropogenic wastes are among the challenging ecological and social problems of the present and future repositories must be constructed and maintained especially with regard to long-term safety. This volume expertises research results of natural geochemical cycles in connection with the disposal of anthropogenic wastes, the role of fluids in marine evaporites and the composition of salt domes as a criterion for evaluating the long-term safety of underground repositories for anthropogenic wastes. It is addressed to engineers and scientists confronted with these problems.

The Arming of Europe and the Making of the First World War (Paperback): David G. Herrmann The Arming of Europe and the Making of the First World War (Paperback)

David Herrmann's work is the most complete study to date of how land-based military power influenced international affairs during the series of diplomatic crises that led up to the First World War. Instead of emphasizing the naval arms race, which has been extensively studied before, Herrmann draws on documentary research in military and state archives in Germany, France, Austria, England, and Italy to show the previously unexplored effects of changes in the strength of the European armies during this period. Herrmann's work provides not only a contribution to debates about the causes of the war but also an account of how the European armies adopted the new weaponry of the twentieth century in the decade before 1914, including quick-firing artillery, machine guns, motor transport, and aircraft.

In a narrative account that runs from the beginning of a series of international crises in 1904 until the outbreak of the war, Herrmann points to changes in the balance of military power to explain why the war began in 1914, instead of at some other time. Russia was incapable of waging a European war in the aftermath of its defeat at the hands of Japan in 1904-5, but in 1912, when Russia appeared to be regaining its capacity to fight, an unprecedented land-armaments race began. Consequently, when the July crisis of 1914 developed, the atmosphere of military competition made war a far more likely outcome than it would have been a decade earlier.

Das Praktikum der Analytischen Geochemie behandelt die quantitative Analyse von naturlichen und anthropogenen Substanzen mittels chemisch-instrumenteller Verfahren. Das Buch enthalt viele bisher unveroeffentlichte Daten und ist das Ergebnis jahrzehntelanger Erfahrungen der Autoren in Forschung und Lehre. Der Teil I Grundlagen informiert uber die Entnahme und Vorbehandlung von Proben, die Beurteilung von Analysedaten, uber Referenzproben, Anforderungen an analytische Einrichtungen sowie uber die Grundlagen der Gravimetrie, Titrimetrie, Spektralphotometrie, AAS, AES, ICP-AES, ICP-MS und Verdampfungsanalyse. Im Teil II Analysemethoden werden Aufschlussverfahren sowie detaillierte Arbeitsanleitungen zur quantitativen Bestimmung von 52 Elementen beschrieben. Abschnitte uber Kontaminationen bei der Probevorbereitung und Analyse sowie uber die Beseitigung von Laborabfallen erganzen die Ausfuhrungen. Angesprochen werden mit dieser aktuellen Publikation Studierende, Forscher und Praktiker, vor allem in den Geowissenschaften, der Umweltforschung, der Analytischen Chemie und in den verwandten Fachgebieten. In den letzten 15 Jahren hat die Bedeutung der analytischen Geochemie in Lehre, Forschung und Praxis wesentlich zugenommen. So sind neben die bisherigen geowissenschaftlichen Arbeitsrichtungen die Umweltgeochemie und die Oberflachen- sowie die Untergrund-Deponien als neue Fachgebiete getreten. Das Praktikum der Analytischen Geochemie tragt dieser Entwicklung Rechnung. Es behandelt die quantitative Analyse von naturlichen und anthropogenen Substanzen mittels chemisch-instrumenteller Verfahren. Ferner wird ausfuhrlich auf die Bedeutung der Entnahme und Vorbehandlung von naturlichen Proben eingegangen. Das Buch enthalt zahlreiche bisher unveroeffentlichte Daten und beruht auf jahrzentelanger Erfahrung der Autoren in Forschung und Lehre. Es ist deshalb im Lehrbetrieb und zum Gebrauch in Laboratorien gleichermassen geeignet. Studierenden, Forschern und Praktikern, vor allem in den Geowissenschaften, der Umweltforschung, der Analytischen Chemie und in den verwandten Fachdisziplinen ist es ein unentbehrliches Lehrbuch und Nachschlagewerk. Das vorliegende Lehrbuch bildet die Basis fur das Studium der naturlichen und im Verlauf geologischer Zeiten stabilisierten Stoffkreislaufe in der Lithosphare, Hydrosphare sowie Atmosphare, deren Beeinflussung durch anthropogene Stoffe sowie deren Bedeutung fur die Langzeitsicherheit unterirdischer Deponielokalitaten. Es richtet sich vor allem an Geowissenschaftler, Chemiker, Chemotechniker und Laboranten.

Die Aussagen fiber die Zukunft sind zumeist be herrscht von den Wunschvorstellungen der Verfasser und denen ihrer Leser. So erscheinen jlihrlich Tausen de von Bfichem, in denen steht, wie die Welt sein sollte. Ab und zu muB auch ein Buch erscheinen, das sagt, wie die Welt wirklich ist. H.Gruhl (1975) Ein Planet wird geplfindert Die zunachst unaufhaltsame Zunahme der Bevolkerung auf einer begrenzten Erdoberflache, die derzeitige und historisch begriindete Konzentrierung der Industrie auf relativ kleine Bereiche der nordlichen Halbkugel sowie die Aus beutung und absehbare Reduzierung natiirlicher Rohstoffe durch die Men schen schafft in steigendem Umfang Probleme, deren Auswirkungen inzwi schen in nahezu allen Lebensbereichen der Natur sichtbar werden. Es ware je doch nicht richtig, ffir diese Gesamtsituation ausschlieBlich wenige Einzelper sonen und bestimmte gesellschaftliche Gruppen verantwortlich zu machen. Tatsachlich liefem nahezu alle Beteiligten durch ihr personliches Verhalten freiwillig oder unfreiwillig einen mehr oder weniger groBen Beitrag zu Ent wicklungen, deren regionale und globale Konsequenzen sich immer deutlicher abzuzeichnen beginnen. Rechtzeitige und erfolgversprechende Korrekturen sind aber nur moglich, wenn wenigstens die Mehrheit einer Bevolkerung von der Notwendigkeit bestimmter GegenmaBnahmen fiberzeugt werden kann. Dazu bedarf es jedoch einer sachlichen und distanzierten Information fiber die Einzelprobleme und deren Zusammenhlinge. In diesem Sinne solI das vor liegende Buch verstanden werden."
