Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This book describes the 110 years of the Astrophysical Observatory in Potsdam (AOP) as the cradle of European astrophysics up to its disappearance in the 1980s. The first part consists of reviews on the work of the leading astronomers before the Academy reform, while the following part also…contains memories of the author until the end of the Akademie der Wissenschaften and the end of the entire GDR as well as the formation 1991/92 of the Astrophysical Institute Potsdam (AIP) on the grounds of the Sternwarte Babelsberg in the course of the German unification.The history of astrophysics on Potsdam's Telegraphenberg includes triumph and tragedies. It began with Hermann Vogel's discovery of the spectroscopic binary stars, Spörer's discovery of the Maunder Minimum of solar activity and Hartmann's clever argumentation on the existence of interstellar gas. Schwarzschild wrote from the war front to Einstein that gravitational waves should exist and Grotrian revealed the secret of the red corona line; later the dynamo theory of the origin of cosmic magnetic fields will migrate worldwide from here.But the Great Refractor turned out to be too large, the hastily erected Einstein Tower also failed to achieve the desired success, Ludendorff drove its multi-talented master mind Freundlich away, and the tower was even planned to be completely removed. Walter Grotrian was not able to start work with his new coronograph, and all the candidates for his succession later declined. The reorganization of the Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Berlin into a socialistic state combine led to isolation and the suppression of the innovation pressure; dubious figures began to torpedo the research through invisible channels.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - This open access hospital report 2025 of the Chinese German Centre for Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) includes the Patient Care Evaluation Programme of the first German hospital for traditional Chinese medicine from 2023. The scientific description of the structures, processes and results of t…he clinic's activities is supplemented by a follow-up survey of patients approximately 6 months after discharge from the hospital until 2024.The TCM-Klinik Bad Kötzting started its medical work in 1991 as the first German hospital for Traditional Chinese Medicine in Germany and can treat German patients with statutory health insurance on the basis of a hospital referral. It is officially designated a university hospital of the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. Today, the hospital is a specialist clinic for psychosomatic medicine and psychotherapy, offering comprehensive inpatient care in conjunction with Traditional Chinese Medicine and in combination with 'conventional' and naturopathic/complementary medical therapies. In addition, a coach- and web-based lifestyle programme is another cornerstone of the overall intervention.During the scientific monitoring of the hospital, it very quickly became clear that testing individual procedures - which are usually used in combination in everyday clinical practice - in exclusively randomised trials was practically impossible and only provided limited meaningful results. Pragmatic and innovative approaches are needed to enable doctors, patients, health insurers and politicians to make rational decisions. One possible solution is the Patient Care Evaluation Programme as a form of real-world evidence developed by Prof. D. Melchart.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This edited book objects to entrenched biases and redefines discussions surrounding language education and research. Anchored in the emancipatory concept of trans-speakerism (Hiratsuka, 2024a, 2024b, 2025; Hiratsuka et al., 2023a, 2023b), this volume attempts to drive diversity, equity, and inclusi…on among language users, educators, and researchers on a global scale. It goes beyond the confines of native-speakerism and conventional labels, prioritizing the strengths, interests, and unique qualities of language practitioners and researchers in both professional and private dimensions. This endeavor advocates for a personalized, context-driven approach and empowers language stakeholders to recognize their existing abilities while envisioning their future potential. The significance of curating an edited compilation comprising multifaceted empirical studies by researchers worldwide cannot be overstated. This broad range of research enriches discussions and offers a comprehensive global perspective on relevant issues. Embracing the tenets of trans-speakerism leads to the acknowledgement of the inherent worth of each language practitioner and researcherirrespective of mother tongues, cultural backgrounds, or professional positions.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Viele Arbeitnehmer berichten bereits, dass sie sich von ihrer Arbeit entfremdet haben und ihren Arbeitsplatz als erdrückend oder wenig einladend empfinden, und erwarten, dass die Einführung neuer Technologien, einschließlich KI, ihre Unternehmenskultur nur noch weiter verschlechtern wird. In diesem… Buch wird die Notwendigkeit eines humanen und verantwortungsvollen Umgangs mit dieser Technologie dargelegt, damit sich die Mitarbeiter nicht noch weiter vom Arbeitsplatz abwenden. Diese Änderung des Ansatzes sollte bedeuten, dass die Arbeitnehmer bei der Einführung von KI in einem Unternehmen eine zentrale Rolle bei der Gestaltung, Umsetzung und Bewertung dieser Technologie spielen. Auf diese Weise kann die Computertechnologie das menschliche Wohlergehen fördern, anstatt zu Entfremdung und Unsicherheit am Arbeitsplatz beizutragen.Dieses Buch ist eine Rückbesinnung auf eine Zeit, in der die hohe Theorie ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Diskussionen über Computertechnologie war. Es bringt verschiedene Disziplinen zusammen, um einige wichtige Fragen zu erörtern, die sich bei der Entwicklung und Anwendung von KI stellen, und kommt zu dem Schluss, dass diese Technologie derzeit von der falschen Theorie geleitet wird und eine humanistische Perspektive erforderlich ist, um ihr volles Potenzial zu erschließen. Die vorgestellten Ideen werden für Wissenschaftler und Studenten der KI von großem Interesse sein, die sich mit dem Arbeitsplatz, dem Verhalten von Organisationen und der Wirtschaftsethik beschäftigen.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book examines the forgotten proposal to make Constantinople the headquarters of the League of Nations after the First World War, in order to rethink the origins of modern international order. By tracing the debate between liberal inte…rnationalism and Western imperialism, it shows how global governance was shaped by power, geography, and ideology rather than universal principles. The author argues that the choice of Geneva as the League s seat was not a neutral administrative decision, but a deeply political one. Focusing on the years from 1919 to 1920, the book reconstructs a critical moment when two competing visions of world order collided: the first, an inclusive, post-imperial internationalism advanced by figures such as David Davies, versus an imperial internationalism championed by policy-makers and the likes of Jan Smuts and Robert Henry Brand. At stake was whether the League would emerge as a genuinely global institution or as a reconfigured instrument of Western dominance. Drawing on pamphlets, Peace Conference minutes, parliamentary debates, and archival sources, the book offers a new perspective on postwar diplomacy, the League of Nations, and the spatial politics of international institutions. 108 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book examines how older adults with physical disabilities living at home develop dietary resilience strategies to maintain independence, agency, and dignity in later life. Drawing on extensive theoretical literature and rich qualitati…ve research with home dwelling older adults, it analyses how people adapt to food related challenges associated with ageing (such as declining health, mobility limitations, sensory changes, financial constraints, retirement, widowhood, and social isolation) and how they mobilise personal, social, and cultural resources to sustain meaningful eating practices.Grounded in a robust conceptual framework that integrates gerontology, the life course perspective, nutritional science, gender studies, and the anthropology of food, the book reframes dietary resilience as a multidimensional process shaped not only by biological or nutritional needs but also by identity, cultural continuity, social relationships, and everyday experiences of agency. It reveals how older adults adapt recipes and routines, diversify food sources, reorganise kitchen environments, rely on supportive networks, practise mindful eating, and preserve pleasure and ritual in ways that reinforce autonomy and well being despite physical limitations. A key contribution of the book is its attention to gendered life histories and foodwork, showing how men and women draw on different forms of knowledge, social capital, and embodied experience to negotiate changing capabilities and roles in later life.Short yet comprehensive, the book foregrounds the sense of security and independence that food provides in old age and highlights strength based strategies through which older adults maintain quality of life. It concludes with practical implications for researchers, professionals, and caregivers seeking to support autonomy, culturally meaningful nutrition, and dignified ageing. 161 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -'Brum has made an original and sophisticated contribution to contemporary debates on democratic alternatives to capitalism. It combines political economy, institutional analysis, and cultural critique with unusual clarity and ambition.' Co…stas Lapavitsas, University of LondonDemocratic Alternatives investigates the intersection of social democracy, market socialism, and the radical critique of the Situationist International. While the Situationists rejected reformism outright, their analysis of alienation, commodification, and the spectacle provides a powerful lens for evaluating institutional reforms in contemporary capitalism. This book argues that policies such as universal basic income, reduction of the working day, participatory urbanism, and cooperative management of resources though not revolutionary in themselves can open cracks in the dominant logic of capital. Drawing on a novel analytical framework, the book evaluates reforms through Situationist categories such as decommodification, autonomy, spatial reappropriation, and détournement of institutions. Two case studies Iceland s working-time reduction experiment and the Mondragón cooperative movement illustrate both the transformative potential and risks of co-optation. The book positions itself between the intransigent legacy of the Situationists and the practical necessity of reform, arguing for non-reformist reforms that create conditions for social experimentation, creativity, and political participation. Written with academic rigor and critical sensitivity, it offers scholars, students, and activists a methodological tool to assess when and how reforms may contribute to a post-spectacular society. 148 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book explores the role of algorithmic media services (e.g. Instagram, Google, Twitter/X, TikTok) in mass communication. It provides empirical analyses of these media as digital environments which shape news distribution, advertising p…ractices, and interpersonal communication. Drawing on interdisciplinary research from media studies, computer science, and communication, the book separates evidence-based insights from widespread folk theories about big tech companies and their role in society. By focusing on structural changes introduced by algorithmic mediation, this work contributes to ongoing discussions about digital literacy, regulation of big tech, and the future of democratic discourse. The structural focus also provides theoretical insights regarding dispersed gatekeeping roles in algorithmic media environments, the communication dynamics surrounding enshittification, and emerging forms of digital capital in the age of influencers. Overall, the book offers a pragmatic perspective toward the rapidly-evolving digital communication environment, emphasizing human agency and the potential for more purposeful engagement with algorithmic media. 168 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Moving forward into the 21st century, the distinction between living systems and machines is rapidly eroding, this in turn has led to the birth of a new discipline in engineering: synthetic biology engineering. Synthetic biology engineerin…g is a multidisciplinary field that combines principles from biology, chemistry, computer science, and engineering to design and construct new biological parts, devices, and systems. It enables the intentional design and manufacture of living cells and biological processes to create new products. Engineers in this field aim to redesign organisms for useful purposes, allowing them to perform complex tasks.While engineers and scientists in the field of synthetic biology are increasingly aware of the ethical challenges posed by their work, they are ill-prepared to deal with the actual dilemmas of conscience that continue to arise. The purpose of this text is to address the lack of professional ethical training for 21st-century engineers who will be developing devices at the intersection of engineering and biology. The book introduces a design algorithm that will give engineers the opportunity to consider their work in the context of a living world, one filled with life forms, many of which exhibit behaviors not far different than our own.The author's approach in developing the design algorithm incorporates a sense of collective responsibility to the animals with whom we share this planet and capabilities, including bodily health and integrity, emotions, play, and control over one's environment. The design algorithm can be applied to specific cases in order to fully explore the matters of conscience that engineers confront in the 21st century. 136 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book explores the legal transformations and tensions emerging in the context of the ecological transition. It examines how various legal regimes are already adapting to the challenges posed by the ecological crisis and where legal sys…tems are under increasing pressure to change.Through a series of thematic chapters, the book identifies and analyses internal legal, political, ideological, and regulatory tensions that characterize the process of adaptation. These include conflicts between legality and environmental protection, the limits of legal frameworks in addressing transnational green capital flows, and the challenges of reconciling legal certainty with ecological imperatives.This volume maps the paths that law is already taking sometimes deliberately, sometimes reactively within the transition. Particular attention is given to how legal structures are shaped by competing visions of justice, growth, and sustainability, as well as the potential for legal thought to evolve in alignment with ecological principles. 144 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book explores two fundamental concepts in philosophy: truth and relation. These concepts indicate the unconditioned condition and the empirical-formal universe that truth unilaterally conditions, respectively. Indeed, truth conditions… the empirical-formal universe without being conditioned by it. It is argued that the reduction of truth to various theories explaining its empirical use has led to the unconditioned nature of truth itself being lost. But if truth is not grasped for its absolute value, it is reduced to relation.The book aims to show that the concept of relation if understood as a static construct of two terms and a nexus is a contradictory construct, since it reconciles the irreconcilable: dependence and independences of the related terms. Thus, only insofar as truth is absolute is it authentic truth, because it does not depend on anything else, but is autonomous and self-sufficient. Indeed, if truth were not absolute, it would be determined and, as such, would be defined by a limit that would place it in relation to something other than itself, i.e. non-truth. But this is contradictory as it would make truth reliant on what is not truth. Instead, no determination can ground itself: the circle of referring that requires the determination to refer beyond itself cannot be the ground, because it configures nothing other than an infinite regress.In conclusion, the book shows that truth has to be understood not only as the end of a quest, but also as its condition, since it is only in virtue of absolute truth that the inadequacy and therefore the unintelligibility of all that is finite or relative are recognised.Truth and Relation is essential reading for all scholars, researchers and advanced students of philosophy and, in particular, of metaphysics and epistemology. 98 pp. Englisch.

It constituted the first Olympics with gender parity among athletes, had a special focus on sustainability, and showed record breaking performances including 32 new wo…rld records. The Games attracted more than 1 million spectators in different venues in and around Paris, and billions of spectators on TV across the globe. Without exaggeration, the Paris Games were the largest and most popular sports event of the year, and most likely the decade so far.Yet the Paris Olympics were not only a sporting event. From its global scale, corporate sponsors and nationalistic symbols, to the controversies some aspects of the Games triggered, they were also an inherently political spectacle. Focusing particularly on the National Olympic Hospitality Houses and the ways in which global crises such as the wars in Gaza and Ukraine complicated the organization of the Games, this volume examines the political nature of the Paris Games from various perspectives. In doing so, it highlights the dualism between sports and politics, transparency and corruption, and peace and conflict. 120 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This open access book explores the story of early modern Swedish sailors and merchants captured and enslaved in the North African territory then known as Barbary (Algeria, Libya, Tunisia, and Morocco), and the efforts of their families, co…mmunities, and consuls to ransom them. Swedes were a minority among the Spaniards, Italians, Frenchmen, and British who were carried off. For that reason, Swedish authorities were initially unaware of their suffering; however, as the losses of men increased and awareness of their plight grew, it became a huge concern for Sweden s long-distance trade, particularly the import of salt essential for food preservation in the long winter months from Southern Europe.By studying the Swedish experience of encountering Barbary, the book illustrates how a small Lutheran state navigated global interests. This volume studies letters from captured and enslaved Swedish sailors and how this correspondence played a pivotal role in shaping slave narratives and by extension Swedish identity. The book also examines these letters social impact on local communities at home, the political pressure they exerted on government officials, and their cultural significance among intellectuals. In addition, the study highlights how Swedish consuls became integrated into the local power elite in North Africa, which facilitated diplomatic negotiations and opened up opportunities for commerce, including participation in the transport and trade of African slaves. 364 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Humans evolved to experience work as pleasurable and continued to find it pleasurable for the first 98% of our history, often likening it to play. The negative associations we see now with "work" stem from the extreme inequality and exp…loitation accompanying the rise of the state 5,500 years ago. Consequently, today many people view work negatively, seeing it as a means to gain income to enable consumption as opposed to serving as a means for creativity, community, and self-fulfillment.Springer-Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 272 pp. Englisch.
