Measurement and Understanding in Science and Humanities
This anthology is a unique compilation of scientific contributions on the topic of measurement and understanding, showing how terms such as number, measurement, understanding, model, pattern are used in a wide variety of disciplines. Based on the results and experiences from their own projects, 23 researchers comment on the potentials and limitations of individual methodological approaches and success factors of interdisciplinary collaboration. In doing so, they sound out the different significance of quantification and empirical evidence for their own disciplines and examine the influence of methodological approaches on existing models and images. The common goal is to want to understand the world; the methods, however, are highly diverse.
Temporal Structure of Neural Processes Coupling Sensory, Motor and Cognitive Functions of the Brain
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact.
Ethical Sense and Literary Significance
This study blends together ethical philosophy, neurocognitive-evolutionary studies, and literary theory to explore how imaginative discourse addresses a distinctively human deep sociality, and by doing so helps shape cultural and literary history. Deep sociality, arising from an improbable evolutionary history, both entwines and leaves non-reconciled what is felt to be significant for us and what ethical sense seems to call us to acknowledge as significant, independent of ourselves. Ethical Sense and Literary Significance connects literary and cultural history without reducing the literary to a mere expression of something else. It argues that affective differences between non-egocentric and...
The Lazarus Smile
"Three little words, the name of a Saint, could destabilize the world and destroy Christianity. Worse, they endanger Sebastian Stahl's family. He has only one option: Face up to his family's terrifying past--and face down assassins and rogue special ops."--Publisher description
Metastable Dynamics of Neural Ensembles
A classical view of neural computation is that it can be characterized in terms of convergence to attractor states or sequential transitions among states in a noisy background. After over three decades, is this still a valid model of how brain dynamics implements cognition? This book provides a comprehensive collection of recent theoretical and experimental contributions addressing the question of stable versus transient neural population dynamics from complementary angles. These studies showcase recent efforts for designing a framework that encompasses the multiple facets of metastability in neural responses, one of the most exciting topics currently in systems and computational neuroscience.
Messen und Verstehen in der Wissenschaft
Dieser Sammelband ist eine einzigartige Zusammenstellung wissenschaftlicher Beiträge zum Thema Messen und Verstehen, in dem aufgezeigt wird, wie Begriffe wie Zahl, Messen, Verstehen, Modell, Muster in unterschiedlichsten Disziplinen verwendet werden. 23 Forscherinnen und Forscher nehmen anhand der Ergebnisse und Erfahrungen aus eigenen Projekten Stellung zu Potentialen und Grenzen einzelner methodischer Betrachtungsweisen und Erfolgsfaktoren interdisziplinärer Zusammenarbeit. Dabei loten sie die unterschiedliche Bedeutung der Quantifizierung und der empirischen Beweisführung für die eigenen Disziplinen aus und untersuchen den Einfluss methodologischer Zugänge auf vorhandene Modelle und Bilder. Das gemeinsame Ziel ist, die Welt verstehen zu wollen; die Methoden sind jedoch höchst verschieden.
Rechte Hassgewalt in Sachsen
Ist der Freistaat Sachsen eine »Hochburg rechtsextremer Hassgewalt«? Diese Leitfrage steht im Zentrum der Studie des Hannah-Arendt-Instituts. Sie erfasst die Periode vor und kurz nach der »Flüchtlingskrise« (2011–2016), zeichnet die Veränderungen im Zeitablauf nach und zieht Vergleiche zu anderen Bundesländern. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf den rechtskräftig verurteilten Gewalttätern und deren Taten. Besondere Berücksichtigung finden herausragende Gewaltakteure wie die »Gruppe Freital« und die »Freie Kameradschaft Dresden«, die maßgeblich zur Eskalation beitrugen. Detaillierte Untersuchungen sind den ideologischen Hintergründen und Kommunikationsformen vor allem in sozialen Med...
