H. HAFNER Schizophrenia Research Unit, Central Institute of Mental
Health, Mannheim, Germany The present volume contains the lectures
and invited discussions of the sympo sium on "Risk and protective
factors in schizophrenia - towards a conceptual model of the
disease process," which was held at the International Science Forum
of the University of Heidelberg from October 25 to 27, 200l. They
are supple mented by a "Summary and outlook," in which Peter Jones
gives a brief overview of the results and perspectives featured in
the presentations and discussions. The contributions and
discussions reflect the open-minded and creative atmosphere at the
meeting. The systematically structured program of the symposium
continued the tradition of the Search for the Causes of
Schizophrenia symposia, which were th started in 1986 on the
occasion of the 600 anniversary of the University of Hei delberg
and which are co-organized with Prof. Wagner Farid Gattaz/Sao
Paulo. The aim of these symposia and their proceedings volumes
6,8-10] has been to reflect the state of the art in schizophrenia
research at their time, and they have successfully done so. In
contrast, the present symposium pursued a more lim ited objective
and was of a different type. It brought together, around a large
table at the International Science Forum in Heidelberg, 22 invited
speakers and dis cussants and an equal number of young scientists
working in the research fields in question, who were thus given an
opportunity to listen and to participate."

Die Alzheimer-Demenz gilt als die haufigste neurodegenerative
Erkrankung des hoheren Lebensalters. Die mit dieser Krankheit
assoziierten neuromorphologischen Veranderungen fuhren zu
vielfaltigen klinischen, psychopathologischen sowie
neuropsychologischen Storungen und lassen sich mit geeigneten Bild
gebenden Verfahren in vivo darstellen. In der vorliegenden Arbeit
werden die Zusammenhange zwischen klinischen Beobachtungen und
zerebralen Veranderungen mit der Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT)
systematisch sowohl bei manifester Alzheimer-Demenz als auch bei
leichter kognitiver Beeintrachtigung untersucht. Zusammenfassend
erweitern die Ergebnisse einerseits unser Verstandnis der
Zusammenhange zwischen zerebralen Veranderungen und
Krankheitssymptomen und konnen andererseits klinisch zur Fruh- und
Differentialdiagnostik der Alzheimer-Demenz einschliesslich ihrer
praklinischen Stadien beitragen. Sie ermoglichen aber auch ein
objektives Verlaufsmonitoring der Erkrankung. Diese Perspektiven
durften mit der Entwicklung neuer hoffentlich auch kurativer
therapeutischer Strategien klinisch noch an Bedeutung
gewinnen."
Zentrales Anliegen des Bandes ist es, die Rolle des Staates im
gegenwartigen Prozess der Integration des Islam aus
unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln und in verschiedenen Kontexten zu
beleuchten. Dies ist, wohl auch in Anbetracht der noch jungen
Geschichte der Islampolitik, bisher nur unzureichend geschehen. Der
Band leistet einen Beitrag dazu, diese Forschungslucke zu
schliessen und damit auch die nach wie vor emotional aufgeladene
Auseinandersetzung um die Einbindung des Islam in Europa weiter zu
versachlichen.
