Inhaltsangabe:Zusammenfassung: „Überalterung der Bevölkerung“, „steigende Lebenserwartung“, „Bevölkerungsrückgang“, „Pillenknick“, „alterungsbedingte Nachfrageverschiebungen“ - alle diese, zur Zeit häufig erörterten Begriffe, lassen sich zu einer Aussage verdichten: Für die Zukunft wird in Deutschland eine alternde Gesellschaft erwartet. Aktuelle Diskussionen beinhalten Begriffe, wie z.B. „Erbengeneration“, „Silver Surfer“ oder „Best Ager“, die den Wertewandel der Senioren beschreiben. Die sparsame und ängstliche Vorkriegsgeneration wird mehr und mehr von der wohlhabenden, konsumorientierten Generation abgelöst. Gesundheit, gute Einkommens- und Vermö...

Setting the pace for progress and innovation . . . "[Provides] a wealth of information on frontier photochemistry . . . could easily serve as a definitive source of background information for future researchers." —Journal of the American Chemical Society "The overall quality of the series and the timeliness of selections and authors warrants continuation of the series by any library wishing to maintain a first-rate reference series to the literature." —Physics Today ADVANCES IN PHOTOCHEMISTRY More than a simple survey of the current literature, Advances in Photochemistry offers critical evaluations written by internationally recognized experts. These pioneering scientists offer unique and varied points of view of the existing data. Their articles are challenging as well as provocative and are intended to stimulate discussion, promote further research, and encourage new developments in the field.
Featuring contributions respected leaders in the field, Nitrene and Nitrenium Ions is the first comprehensive book to explore the role of reactive intermediate nitrene and nitrenium ions in chemistry and biochemistry. Covering a broad range of topics, including ultrafast studies, computational studies, behavior in aqueous solution, electronic structures, and reactions with aromatic compounds, this valuable resource will empower graduate students and researchers to better understand and expand their synthetic utility.
The story of civil rights activist John Lewis, inspired to action by the words of Dr. Martin Luther King and other civil rights leaders who believed in fighting segregation peacefully. From Tennessee to Alabama, Lewis was in the forefront of the major civil rights protests of the 1960s. In the face of physical attacks, he persevered with dignity and devotion to nonviolence, helping black people in the south gain the right to vote. In 1986 Lewis was elected to represent Georgia in the United States Congress, where he continues to serve today.

A comprehensive reference for assessing the antioxidant potential of foods and essential techniques for developing healthy food products Measurement of Antioxidant Activity and Capacity offers a much-needed resource for assessing the antioxidant potential of food and includes proven approaches for creating healthy food products. With contributions from world-class experts in the field, the text presents the general mechanisms underlying the various assessments, the types of molecules detected, and the key advantages and disadvantages of each method. Both thermodynamic (i.e. efficiency of scavenging reactive species) and kinetic (i.e. rates of hydrogen atom or electron transfer reactions) asp...
The aim of this four-volume, multi-author reference work is to provide a comprehensive guide to the radiation curing field. Volume Two is devoted to the chemistry of photoinitiators, presenting and discussing basic concepts and the reactivity of typical systems.
Major new reflections on race and schools—by the best-selling author of “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?“ A Simmons College/Beacon Press Race, Education, and Democracy Series Book Beverly Daniel Tatum emerged on the national scene in 1997 with “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?,“ a book that spoke to a wide audience about the psychological dynamics of race relations in America. Tatum’s unique ability to get people talking about race captured the attention of many, from Oprah Winfrey to President Clinton, who invited her to join him in his nationally televised dialogues on race. In her first book since that pathbreaking suc...
