What does a home look like in twenty-first-century New York? While the city s name alone brings to mind very specific ideas the Fifth Avenue penthouse, with its elegant mouldings and crystal chandeliers; the SoHo loft, with its bright spaces and air of bohemian ease; the Brooklyn brownstone, with its fireplaces, parquet floors, and lush backyards the truth is, New York today is much more than this, and the potential for variety in ways of living is, now more than ever, virtually limitless. As a result, in the twenty-first century, the combined design professions enjoy an unprecedented menu of prospective solutions, whether based upon respect for a classically inflected New York past, an emphatic denial of such a tradition, or, most often, some hybrid response that often yields the best innovation possible. New York Living celebrates this vast potential while exploring contemporary apartments and town houses throughout the city, ranging beyond Manhattan into the outer boroughs of Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx, and back to the centre, Manhattan, which continues to climb ever higher in its reach toward the sky.

Molecular recognition undoubtedly governs any aspect of cellular interaction. To understand tumor cell growth regulation and spread, analysisof protein carbohydrate interactions can contribute to lead to the establishment of rational methods for diagnosis and therapy. Chemically and biochemically optimized preparation of adequate tools, their application for localization of receptor (tissue lectin) and ligand (cellular glycoconjugate) pairs in tumor cells and tumor sections and the usefulness of a lectin from a plant extract as potent immunomodulator indicate the prospect for a place of such techniques in pathology and oncology.

In den letzten 3 Jahren ungefahr ist in wissenschaftlichen und industriellen Kreisen das Interesse fUr eine neue "Glassorte," die wohl sicher eine groBe Zukunft hat, besonders rege geworden. Um nun auch weitere Kreise auf dies en neuen Industriezweig, die Quarzglasfabrikation, aufmerksam zu machen, habe ich mich VOl' Antritt meiner hiesigen Stellung unterfangen, im folgenden eine genaue geschichtliche Entwickelung des Quarzglases von den ersten Versuchen auf diesem Gebiete an, soweit mir die Angaben dariiber zuganglich waren, sowie eine Zusammenstellung del' Fabrikationsmethoden, del' Eigenschaften und Verwendungen des Quarzglases zu geben. Hierbei bin ich in freundlichster Weise von verschiedenen Seiten unterstiitzt worden. Vor allem habe ich meinem friiheren hochgeschatzten Lehrer Herrn Geh. Reg.-Rat Prof. Dr. O.N. Witt Charlottenburg fUr die Anregung zu diesel' Arbeit meinen ver bindlichsten Dank abzustatten. Ganz besonderen Dank sage ich auch an dieser Stelle del' "Deutschen Quarzgesellschaft, Aktien gesellschaft" in Beuel-Bonn, die mil' in liebenswiirdigstel' Weise mit Literaturangaben und Dberlassung von Quarzglas beratend zur Seite gestanden hat. Ebenso danke ich herzlichst del' Firma W. C. Heraeus-Hanau fUr die mil' freundlichst zur Verfiigung gestellte Literaturzusammenstellung, sowie auch dem Herrn Professor Mehner-Berlin, dem ich sehr viele Anregungen und Rat schlage fiir diese Arbeit verdanke.

English summary: In view of chronic inflation and mass unemployment in many countries around the world, this book addresses the question of how and under which circumstances a higher degree of economic stability could be achieved. Paul-Gunther Schmidt presents a post-monetarist theory drawing special attention to a variety of institutional factors that condition the macroeconomic performance of a market economy in the long run. In a cross-national empirical analysis of central banks, exchange rate regimes, banking sectors, political systems and labor market relations in 47 democracies during the last quarter of the twentieth century, the author delivers strong empirical support for the basic message of his book: in the long run the degree of macroeconomic stability is conditioned by the institutional architecture of the national economic and political system. German description: Ein Vergleich der Inflationsraten und Arbeitslosenquoten verschiedener Lander offenbart markante zwischenstaatliche Unterschiede, die uber lange Zeitraume hinweg bemerkenswert dauerhaft sind. Diese Beobachtung wirft die Frage auf, worin die hartnackigen zwischenstaatlichen Stabilitatsdifferenziale begrundet liegen, und unter welchen Bedingungen sich gesamtwirtschaftliche Stabilitat in einzelnen Landern uberhaupt verwirklichen lasst.Paul-Gunther Schmidt stellt mit seiner post-monetaristischen Theorie einen Erklarungsansatz vor, der die makrookonomische Entwicklung eines Landes primar in institutionellen Merkmalen des wirtschaftlichen und politischen Systems bedingt sieht. Dabei zieht der Verfasser nicht nur das Zentralbanksystem und das Wechselkursregime, sondern auch das nationale Bankensystem, das Regierungssystem und die Organisation des Arbeitsmarktes in Betracht.Seine international vergleichende Analyse der Erfahrungen von 47 Industrie-, Schwellen- und Entwicklungslandern wahrend des letzten Viertels des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts liefert eine Fulle empirischer Evidenz fur die praktische Relevanz der hier vorgelegten Theorie. Deutlichkeit und Stringenz der Befunde stutzen die zentrale Botschaft des Buches, dass der Grad gesamtwirtschaftlicher Stabilitat langfristig in der institutionellen Architektur des wirtschaftlichen und politischen Systems eines Landes begrundet liegt. Dabei kommt dem Arbeitsmarkt eine Schlusselrolle zu.
