Moser Nussbaumer
A visionary approach and surprising solutions to architectural and urban planning issues is the hallmark of Heinz Moser and Roger Nussbaumer. The same discernible creativity runs through all works -- submissions and completed buildings -- presented here, including their Peking Olympic Stadium and the award-winning MFO-Park in Zurich-Oerlikon. The transformation of visions into art and the architecture of towns and cities, into structures and spaces, is the subject of the first section of this book. Then the touchstones of practical realization and use are introduced. Technical and design requirements and solutions merge to form a functioning whole.
Social Theory and Education
This book summarizes and critiques theories of social and cultural reproduction as they relate to sociology of education.
Numerical Simulation in Tunnelling
This text presents the results of the joint research initiative "Numercial Simulation in Tunneling". In doing so it provides a thorough guide to improving the safety and economy of tunnels by discussing the application of numerical simulation methods to assist tunnel engineers. Numerical simulation tools for the estimation of the required tunnel support and the required construction measures are described in this book. By using them, it is possible to study the impact on the construction and on the environment at the planning stadium and during construction. This will result in an improvement of the safety and economy of tunnels.

Handbook of World Exchange Rates, 1590–1914
As a world economy emerged from the 16th-17th centuries onwards, a global cashless payment system arose. This had its base in Europe, first in Italy, then in the rising regions of the north-west, with Amsterdam and then London as the central financial market. The mutual quotation of exchange rates, which provide the data tabulated and analysed here, mark the integration into a global network of all areas with significant economic potential. The primary aim of this book is to provide a compact account of the exchange rates in all these financial markets, from the late 16th century up to the First World War. This makes possible an instant conversion between the major world currencies at nearly any date within that period, while the important introduction provides the explanation and context of developments. The present handbook therefore serves as an invaluable resource for those concerned with all aspects of commercial and financial history.
