Fluctuation Mechanisms in Superconductors
Holger Bartolf discusses state-of-the-art detection concepts based on superconducting nanotechnology as well as sophisticated analytical formulæ that model dissipative fluctuation-phenomena in superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors. Such knowledge is desirable for the development of advanced devices which are designed to possess an intrinsic robustness against vortex-fluctuations and it provides the perspective for honorable fundamental science in condensed matter physics. Especially the nanowire detector allows for ultra-low noise detection of signals with single-photon sensitivity and GHz repetition rates. Such devices have a huge potential for future technological impact and might enable unique applications (e.g. high rate interplanetary deep-space data links from Mars to Earth).
The Design Experience
How are we to understand the changing role of design and designers in the new age of consumer experience? Drawing on perspectives from cultural studies, design management, marketing, new product development and communications theory, The Design Experience explores the contexts, practices and roles of designers in today's world, providing an accessible introduction to the key issues reshaping design. The book begins by analysing how consumers acquire meaning and identity from product and other experiences made possible by design. It then explores issues of competitiveness, innovation and management in the context of industry and commerce. If designers are creators of human experiences, what d...

The Obamas
When Barack Obama won the 2008 presidential election, he also won a long-running debate with his wife Michelle. Contrary to her fears, politics now seemed like a worthwhile, even noble pursuit. Together they planned a White House life that would be as normal and sane as possible. Then they moved in. In The Obamas, Jodi Kantor takes us deep inside the White House as they grapple with their new roles, change the country, raise children, maintain friendships, and figure out what it means to be President and First Lady. Filled with riveting detail and insight into their partnership and personalities, and written with a keen eye for the ironies of public life and the realities of power, The Obamas is an intimate portrait that will surprise even those who thought they knew the President and First Lady.
Scanning Force Microscopy of Polymers
Scope of the Book Synthetic and natural polymers exhibit a complex structural and morphological hierarchy on multiple length scales [1], which determines their performance. Thus, research aiming at visualizing structure and morphology using a multitude of microscopy techniques has received considerable attention since the early days of polymer science and technology. Various well-developed techniques such as optical microscopy and different forms of electron microscopy (Scanning Electron Micr- copy, SEM; Transmission Electron Microscopy, TEM; Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy, ESEM) allow one to view polymeric structure at different levels of magni?cation. These classical techniques...
Tolstoj und die Sprache der Weisheit
Holger Kuße stellt die religiös-moralischen und weisheitlichen Werke Lev Tolstojs und ihre Ausdrucksformen vor. Die Sprache der Weisheit, zu der Lev Tolstoj in seinen letzen Lebensjahren fand, bildet eine eigenständige Welt im Werk des russischen Dichters. Ihr Höhepunkt ist die Sammlung »Der Weg des Lebens« aus dem Todesjahr 1910. Tolstoj war Moralist, der in Gegensätzen dachte wie Wahrheit und Täuschung, Gott und Mensch, Geist und Fleisch, Mann und Frau, Tod und Leben. Er war aber auch Mystiker, der vom Licht Gottes sprach, das in jedem Menschen leuchten will. Das macht ihn zu einem aktuellen provokanten Denker auch für unsere Gegenwart. Holger Kuße stellt Tolstojs Denken in Gegensätzen, die Sprache seiner rigoristischen Moral und die Sprache seiner Weisheit vor sowie eine Auswahl aus »Der Weg des Lebens«.
