Trust and Communication: Foundations of Interconnectivity
The book introduces an innovative theoretical look at trust as a mental algorithm that links our internalized memory of others to our social behavior. It further establishes trust as an integral part of social relationships and investigates why online communication might alter our trust in others and change our perception of relationships.
Filmgenres und Filmgattungen
Dieses Buch leistet einen Beitrag zum Verständnis der Bedeutung von Filmgenre-, Gattungs-, Stil- und Formatbezeichnungen. Es verfolgt das Ziel, einen umfassenden Überblick über die vielfältigen, oft wild wuchernden Begrifflichkeiten zu geben, die im Alltag gebräuchlich sind. Dabei beschreibt es in allgemeinverständlicher Sprache die wichtigsten Merkmale, die mit den jeweiligen Bezeichnungen verbunden sind, und arbeitet den Konsens hinsichtlich des dramaturgischen Aufbaus, der Geschichtsstruktur sowie der wiederkehrenden Ikonografie, Musik und Bildsprache heraus. Neben der Vermittlung grundlegender Informationen widmet sich das Buch auch Fragen, die aufgrund der Geläufigkeit der Begriffe oftmals als zu banal angesehen werden und klärt Detailfragen, wie etwa den Unterschied zwischen einem „Sozialdrama“ (engl. „Social Problem Film“) und einem „Social Drama“ (dt. „Gesellschaftsdrama“). Es fungiert somit als Überblick fürFilminteressierte jeder Art, insbesondere aber für jene, die beruflich mit dem Thema in Verbindung stehen.

God of the Margins
The God of the Margins is a unique self-explorative and self-reflective lamentation of a Christian who does not settle with the comfortable reality in which our personal faith is strictly separated from the disturbing reality of everyday life. The author forces himself into the incommodious position of reflection over the line where our personal faith and understanding of Jesus Christ as our savior and redeemer, our noble principles on which we build our lives, collide with the rough reality of the street, the cruelty of social issues like discrimination, crime, ignorance, and poverty, and the seamy side of globalization. Ultimately, the author is intending to move us to become the real amba...
Studies on Periodontal Disease
The chapters of Studies on Periodontal Disease comprise four parts. Part 1 provides basic sciences from the general to the particular. The findings of cell culture and animal models supply the mechanism between periodontal disease and oxidative stress. In part 2, human clinical studies are mainly addressed. The effects of periodontal therapy on circulating oxidative stress are also discussed. The relationships between periodontal disease and systemic diseases are examined in part 3. The involvement of oxidative stress and inflammation are discussed through in vivo and in vitro study results. Part 4 discusses future strategies, including the effects of antioxidants and nutrition on periodontal disease. This thorough examination of the relationship between oxidative stress and periodontal disease is essential reading for researchers in oxidative stress and periodontal clinicians, alike.
Korean Food and Foodways
This book offers an excellent introduction to Korean functional foods and shares latest important information for food scientists and nutritionists, including accurate, up-to-date information on Korean food science together with background information, archeological findings, as well as food methods and research on Korean fermented foods (e.g., grain wine, kimchi, jeotgal, and soybean sauces). It also discusses historical backgrounds and manufacturing method details of traditional food categories, such as rice cakes, sweets, fermented sauces, and alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, and helps us understand the full science behind Korean traditional food. This book elaborates on the various changes in food culture brought about by recent updates, and inspires future contributions of Korean food concepts, particularly regarding the latest research on the intersection of food and Traditional Eastern Medicine. While the book will be particularly valuable for researchers and scholars interested in specifics in food science, it will also appeal to traditional medicine researchers seeking new knowledge for current functional foods.

Art, Agency and Living Presence
Throughout history, and all over the world, viewers have treated works of art as if they are living beings: speaking to them, falling in love with them, kissing or beating them. Although over the past 20 years the catalogue of individual cases of such behavior towards art has increased immensely, there are few attempts at formulating a theoretical account of them, or writing the history of how such responses were considered, defined or understood. That is what this book sets out to do: to reconstruct some crucial chapters in the history of thought about such reflections in Western Europe, and to offer some building blocks towards a theoretical account of such responses, drawing on the work of Aby Warburg and Alfred Gell.
