Seeking Reconciliation in a Context of Coloniality
How do white people handle their own dominance while striving for racial reconciliation in a concrete church context in Cape Town? Persisting effects of colonialism present a challenge to reconciliation efforts in settler-colonial societies. This book draws particular attention to the coloniality of knowledge in multicultural churches and denominations. Despite its ability to connect, English is here regarded as an obstacle to deeper cross-cultural understanding and appreciation. The findings of this ethnographic study reveal how – motivated by a ‘Hope for transformation from within’ – racial integration often took precedence over equity. Eurocentric leanings were found to be both ac...
The Body of Evidence
When, why and how was it first believed that the corpse could reveal ‘signs’ useful for understanding the causes of death and eventually identifying those responsible for it? The Body of Evidence. Corpses and Proofs in Early Modern European Medicine, edited by Francesco Paolo de Ceglia, shows how in the late Middle Ages the dead body, which had previously rarely been questioned, became a specific object of investigation by doctors, philosophers, theologians and jurists. The volume sheds new light on the elements of continuity, but also on the effort made to liberate the semantization of the corpse from what were, broadly speaking, necromantic practices, which would eventually merge into forensic medicine.
X-Ray Near-Field Holography: Beyond Idealized Assumptions of the Probe
All images are flawed, no matter how good your lenses, mirrors etc. are. Especially in the hard X-ray regime it is challenging to manufacture high quality optics due to the weak interaction of multi-keV photons with matter. This is a tremendous challenge for obtaining high resolution quantitative X-ray microscopy images. In recent years lensless phase contrast imaging has become an alternative to classical absorptionbased imaging methods. Without any optics, the image is formed only by the free space propagation of the wave field. The actual image has to be formed posteriori by numerical reconstruction methods. Advanced phasing methods enable the experimentalist to recover a complex valued s...
Leveraging Applications of Formal Methods, Verification and Validation. Technologies for Mastering Change
The two-volume set LNCS 8802 and LNCS 8803 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Symposium on Leveraging Applications of Formal Methods, Verification and Validation, ISoLA 2014, held in Imperial, Corfu, Greece, in October 2014. The total of 67 full papers was carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the proceedings. Featuring a track introduction to each section, the papers are organized in topical sections named: evolving critical systems; rigorous engineering of autonomic ensembles; automata learning; formal methods and analysis in software product line engineering; model-based code generators and compilers; engineering virtualized systems; statistical model...

Das verräumlichte Selbst
Raum und Identität sind nicht als getrennte Größen zu denken, sondern stehen – so die Leitthese des Bandes – in einem sich wechselseitig bedingenden Verhältnis von Kontingenz und Stabilität. Mit der Frage nach der Verräumlichung des Selbst will der Band Perspektiven auf das vielschichtige und relationale Gefüge sozialer Praktiken eröffnen. Die interdisziplinär angelegte Publikation versammelt Beiträge aus der Soziologie, der (Wissens-)Geschichte, der Philosophie, den Sprachwissenschaften und der Museumspraxis. In historischen und regionalen Fallstudien sowie theoretischen und epochenübergreifenden Beiträgen wird das epistemologische Potenzial des Spatial Turn in den Kulturwissenschaften für Fragen nach der Identitätskonstruktion sowie der Rolle von Selbstverhältnissen für die Raumproduktion erschlossen. Dabei werden zum einen Analysen von Identitäts- und Raumkonzepten in ihren wechselseitigen Bedingtheiten vorangetrieben, zum anderen sind Raum und Identität selbst Gegenstand von Analysen regionaler und zeitlich gebundener Praktiken.
Dr. Daniel Serienpaket – Arztroman
Dr. Daniel ist eine echte Erfolgsserie. Sie vereint medizinisch hochaktuelle Fälle und menschliche Schicksale, die uns zutiefst bewegen – und einen Arzt, den man sich in seiner Güte und Herzlichkeit zum Freund wünscht.
Advancing the Characterization of Neuronal Cyto-Architecture by X-ray Phase-Contrast Tomography
To bring physiology and pathology of the human brain into better micro-anatomical and histological context, studies with different methodologies are required. Established techniques such as electron microscopy or histology show limitations in view of invasiveness, labor-intense and artifact-prone sample preparation, as well as an adequate ratio between resolution and volume throughput. For this reason, X-ray phase-contrast tomography (PC-CT) has been proposed as a three-dimensional non-destructive imaging technique, which requires less effort in sample preparation and can assess larger volumes. Furthermore, it offers quantitative electron density based contrast even for unstained tissue. Up ...
