Symptoms of Modernity
In the 1990s, Vienna's Jews and queers abandoned their clandestine existence and emerged into the city's public sphere in unprecedented numbers. Symptoms of Modernity traces this development in the context of Central European history. Jews and homosexuals are signposts of an exclusionary process of nation-building. Cast in their modern roles in the late nineteenth century, they functioned as Others, allowing a national community to imagine itself as a site of ethnic and sexual purity. In Matti Bunzl's incisive historical and cultural analysis, the Holocaust appears as the catastrophic culmination of this violent project, an attempt to eradicate modernity's abject by-products from the body po...

New Dynamics in Old Age
This book was nurtured by the belief that the new dynamics of today's and tomorrow's aging has not yet been treated well in the gerontology literature. Several questions drove the choice of substance for the book: What kind of new dynamics of aging deserves consideration? What kinds of theories and fields are at the core of treating such a new dynamics? And what kind of empirical evidence should be considered? The master hypothesis on which the book is based maintains that the new dynamics of old age is best observed in a range of everyday aging contexts that have been undergoing major change since the second half of the 20th century. In particular, five areas of new and persistent dynamics ...

Designers
Modern product development means problem solving by teams in complex working environments. Thereby, the design process is influenced by factors from various fields, the task, the individual, the team, and the organisational context. This complex network of influences turns product development into a challenge with requirements for the designers aside from technical problems. This book contains the proceedings of the international symposium Designers - The Key to Successful Product Development held in Darmstadt, Germany, December 1997. During this meeting exponents from different leading research groups in engineering design came together to present and discuss their results. Within this volume different aims, issues and methods of design research are addressed in 23 contributions by different research groups. Structured in six sections according to the main fields of influence, it provides a survey of the state of scientifically-based knowledge and the trends of engineering design research on the influences leading to successful product development.
Willkommen in Schattenfall
Das ist also Schattenfall. Was für ein Kaff! Nur schnell das gestohlene Portemonnaie abgeben, dann ist Thomas auch schon wieder weg - ein paar Tage bei seinem Vater unterkommen. In Berlin hat er nämlich Stress mit gefährlichen Leuten bekommen, und das nicht ganz unverschuldet. Helga, die rechtmäßige Besitzerin des Portemonnaies, ist allerdings unauffindbar. Immerhin hat sie ihm zwei Überraschungen zurückgelassen: Den Schlüssel zu ihrem Haus ... und Geronimo, einen besitzergreifenden Ganter mit Hang zum Größenwahn. Auch die anderen Bewohner Schattenfalls haben ihn erwartet. Nicht alle sind jedoch glücklich, als er zu bleiben beschließt. Zwischen Kürbisfest und lokalen Fehden, Magie und Mythen verbirgt dieser pittoreske Ort ein düsteres Geheimnis. Und Wassermagier Thomas ist aus einem bestimmten Grund hergelockt worden: Er soll herausfinden, warum Leute in den Wäldern rund um Schattenfall verschwinden, und den Fluch brechen.
