During the last three decades geosciences and geo-engineering were influenced by two essential scenarios: First, the technological progress has changed completely the observational and measurement techniques. Modern high speed computers and satellite based techniques are entering more and more all geodisciplines. Second, there is a growing public concern about the future of our planet, its climate, its environment and about an expected shortage of natural resources. Obviously, both aspects, viz. efficient strategies of protection against threats of a changing Earth and the exceptional...

Weitgehend unbekannt ist die Tatsache, daß in den Jahren 1933 bis 1938 eine jüdische Presse existierte, die mit 65 Zeitungen und Zeitschriften eine monatliche Gesamtauflage von etwa einer Million Exemplare erreichte. Herbert Freedens Untersuchung bringt zum ersten Mal Licht in das weitgehend unbekannte Gebiet der jüdischen Publizistik unter dem Naziregime, macht die politischen und kulturellen Auseinandersetzungen innerhalb des deutschen Judentums sichtbar und dokumentiert dessen Mut zum geistigen Widerstand.

Liberal Languages reinterprets twentieth-century liberalism as a complex set of discourses relating not only to liberty but also to welfare and community. Written by one of the world's leading experts on liberalism and ideological theory, it uses new methods of analyzing ideologies, as well as historical case studies, to present liberalism as a flexible and rich tradition whose influence has extended beyond its conventional boundaries.

Michael Freeden argues that liberalism's collectivist and holistic aspirations, and its sense of change, its self-defined mission as...

This is the first collection to bring together leading scholars from diverse disciplines to offer a variety of perspectives on ideology and its analysis, emphasizing the input of different intellectual and scholarly traditions to the meaning of ideology.

The articles explore commonalities in the use and understanding of ideology as well as delineating constructive differences in its interpretation, while illuminating the changes that the concept of ideology, as well as the practices it signifies, has undergone in recent years. Contributions are included from the fields of political...

Metaharmonic Lattice Point Theory covers interrelated methods and tools of spherically oriented geomathematics and periodically reflected analytic number theory. The book establishes multi-dimensional Euler and Poisson summation formulas corresponding to elliptic operators for the adaptive determination and calculation of formulas and identities of weighted lattice point numbers, in particular the non-uniform distribution of lattice points.

The author explains how to obtain multi-dimensional generalizations of the Euler summation formula by interpreting...

This book provides a clear and comprehensive survey of the "status quo" of the interrelating process and cross-fertilization of structures and methods in mathematical geodesy, written by leading experts. Starting with a foundation of special functions, potential theory, functional analysis, boundary value problems, constructive approximation, and inverse problems, readers are subsequently introduced into today's geodetic observables, geoidal modeling, gravimetry, and satellite gravity gradiometry. All chapters are self-contained and can be studied individually, making the book an ideal...
