Deutsch Die Collagen in diesem Buch wurden auf Fotografien zusammengeklebt, die die Künstlerin Karin Karrenberg zweitausendzwölf in der großen Werkhalle der alten Gießerei Diepenbrock und Reigers Eisenhütte (DRU) aus dem achtzehnten Jahrhundert in Ulft in den Niederlanden gemacht hatte. Die Spuren der Vergangenheit hielt sie fotografisch fest. Es sind Bilder entstanden, die im Sinne der Definition von Max Ernst absurde, surreale Bildsituationen schaffen. Sie geben Hieronymus-Bosch-hafte Rätsel auf oder verbildlichen Gedanken oder Wortspiele. Viele der Bilder haben komplexe Inhalte, die die Vorstellung von Theaterstücken oder Bühnenbildern hervorrufen oder Anregung für einen Roman ge...
ENGLISH Nearly ninety and still in surprisingly good condition. Like no other research tool the electron microscope by the brothers Ernst and Helmut Ruska and their brother-in-law Bodo von Borries marks the dawn of modernity. Their avant-garde idea of 1931 to examine under a microscope with electrons has expanded human vision until today. The world's first commercial overmicroscope for discoveries in the world of the smallest followed in Berlin 1939. 1948 the German development and application of overmicroscopy was revived in Düsseldorf. As a key instrument of research it has completed a triumphant march and it has won the attention of the Nobel Prize Committee for awards twice. 1986 the No...
Die 44 Lebensjahre Friedrich Spees (1591 - 1635) fallen in eine unruhige und spannungsgeladene Zeit. Aber dieser Mann von tiefer Frömmigkeit, klarer Rationalität und leidenschaftlicher Mitmenschlichkeit hat Spuren hinterlassen. Diesen Spuren folgen die Herausgeber, indem sie vorwiegend originale Texte Spees in Auszügen vorstellen. Zusätzlich geben die Herausgeber durch Anmerkungen, Worterklärungen und kurze Einführungen Lesehilfen. Dem Freund und Kenner Spees kann das Lesebuch ein verlässlicher und kommoder Begleiter sein. Dem interessierten Laien, dem Schüler, dem Studenten bietet es Lotsendienste über die Untiefen des geschichtlichen Abstandes an.
Abstracts of journal articles, books, essays, exhibition catalogs, dissertations, and exhibition reviews. The scope of ARTbibliographies Modern extends from artists and movements beginning with Impressionism in the late 19th century, up to the most recent works and trends in the late 20th century. Photography is covered from its invention in 1839 to the present. A particular emphasis is placed upon adding new and lesser-known artists and on the coverage of foreign-language literature.

TYPIX is a critical compilation of crystallographic data prepared by E. Parthé at the University of Geneva. It contains over 3200 compounds representative of the structure types found among inorganic compounds. This work contains condensed crystal chemical information about individual structure types as well as an extensive chapter on the crystal chemistry of particular structure families. The aim of the compilation is to clarify and classify published data for intermetallic and other inorganic structures (types found exclusively with halides or oxides are only included for a few special cases). It provides a tool for additional crystal chemical studies and the development of new materials.
Technical and vocational education and training (TVET) research has become a recognized and well-defined area of interdisciplinary research. This is the first handbook of its kind that specifically concentrates on research and research methods in TVET. The book’s sections focus on particular aspects of the field, starting with a presentation of the genesis of TVET research. They further feature research in relation to policy, planning and practice. Various areas of TVET research are covered, including on the vocational disciplines and on TVET systems. Case studies illustrate different approaches to TVET research, and the final section of the book presents research methods, including interview and observation methods, as well as of experimentation and development. This handbook provides a comprehensive coverage of TVET research in an international context, and, with special focus on research and research methods, it is a cutting-edge resource and reference.
We welcome you to the proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Self-Organizing Systems (IWSOS 2009) hosted at ETH, Zurich, Switzerland. IWSOS provides an annual forum to present and discuss recent research in self-organization focused on networks and networked systems. Research in se- organizingnetworkedsystemshasadvancedinrecentyears,buttheinvestigation of its potentials and limits still leaves challenging and appealing open research issues for this and subsequent IWSOS workshops.

Today, Europe is a favoured destination for refugees from all over the world. We might have forgotten an earlier exodus during the aftermath of the Second World War in the opposite direction. Jewish survivors of the Holocaust aimed for Palestine, and after 1948, the State of Israel. Protestants from the Netherlands, Switzerland, America and Germany intended to join the Jewish people in their new homeland by building the village Nes Ammim. The Netherlands had been occupied during the war; Switzerland had remained neutral. Germany carried the taints of guilt and defeat, the United States the laurels of the victor. What made them work together? And why did the Americans and the Swiss withdraw i...
