With the exception of positron emission tomography (PET), the field of low energy positron science produces relatively few academic articles each year compared to more accessible fields. Though much has been achieved since the publication of two related volumes earlier in this series: Positron Solid State Physics (1981) and Positron Spectroscopy of Solids (1993), only the first steps have been made towards 'physics with many positrons': physical situations where the interactions of positrons with positrons can be observed. This 2009 "Enrico Fermi School" aims to stimulate the field o.
The subject of religious liberty in the nineteenth century has been defined by a liberal narrative that has prevailed since Mill and Macaulay to Trevelyan and Commager, to name only a few philosophers and historians who wrote in English. Underlying this narrative is a noble dream--liberty for every person, guaranteed by democratic states that promote social progress though not interfering with those broadly defined areas of life, including religion, that are properly the preserve of free individuals. At the end of the twentieth century, however, it becomes clear that religious liberty requires a more comprehensive, subtle, and complex definition than the liberal tradition affords, one that c...

When it comes to studying the structures and defects of materials, there is presently no technique that is superior to positron annihilation. The increasing demands for higher accuracy and reliability provide a constant stimulus to the field, and the present book relates the newest and most important scientific discoveries made in the field of positron annihilation.
Seit ihren Ursprüngen ist die Rhetorik interdisziplinär angelegt. Rhetorisches Wissen über den Menschen, rhetorische Methoden und Techniken sind in viele Fächer aufgenommen worden, die sich mit Fragen sprachlicher Vermittlung und Interaktion sowie mit deren visueller Umsetzung beschäftigen. Diese vom Philosophen Hans-Georg Gadamer pointierte Ubiquität der Rhetorik hat daher seit ihrer Wiederentdeckung und Renaissance Mitte des 20. Jahrhundert (rhetorical turn) in den betroffenen Fächern zu einer lebhaften Diskussion und zum Einbezug rhetorischen Wissens in die jeweils eigene Systematik geführt. Dies betrifft Praxisfelder wie Bildrhetorik und Malerei, Medienrhetorik und Wissenschaftsr...
This book discusses the political setting of Protestant theology in the German-language area (including Switzerland), and the efforts made in the period 1890-1933 to develop forms of social thought and action on Christian presuppositions. It discusses the theoretical challenge posed by Max Weber, and the more far-reaching challenges offered by the outbreak of war in 1914 and the political instability of the 1920s. Central to the argument are the efforts of theologians from Stoecker and Harnack to Barth and Tillich to assess Socialism from a Christian point of view, and their difficulties in coming to terms with the daily politics of operative political systems. The book treats the subject from an historian's viewpoint as has not previously been attempted in English or German.
