Wie ergeht es Frauen an der Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz? Wie sind ihre Karrierewege und -chancen? Wie war es in der Vergangenheit, als Frau an der JGU zu studieren oder zu arbeiten, und welchen aktuellen Herausforderungen stellen sich Frauen in den einzelnen Gruppen – als Studierende, Lehrende oder auch als nicht-wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin – heute? Diese und weitere Fragen stehen im Fokus des vorliegenden Bandes, der sich diesen aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven nähert. Neben der Darstellung historischer Entwicklungen inner- und außerhalb der Universität richten sich die Untersuchungen auf Portraits individueller biographischer Erlebnisse sowie auf die hochschulpolitis...
Almost half a million books printed in the fifteenth century survive in collections worldwide. In Incunabula in Transit Lotte Hellinga explores how and where they were first disseminated. Propelled by the novel need to market hundreds of books, early printers formed networks with colleagues, engaged agents and traded Latin books over long distances. They adapted presentation to suit the taste of distinct readerships, local and remote. Publishing in vernacular languages required typographical innovations, as the chapter on William Caxton’s Flanders enterprise demonstrates. Eighteenth-century collectors dislodged books from institutions where they had rested since the sales drives of early printers. Erudite and entertaining, Hellinga’s evidence-based approach, linked to historical context, deepens understanding of the trade in early printed books.
This book covers the content of European postgraduate spine surgery courses, using a case-based approach. It describes a stepwise solution to a real-world clinical problem and compares this with the best available evidence. It then provides suggestions on how to bridge the gap (if there is one) between standard of care and evidence-based medicine. Spine Surgery: A Case-Based Approach is aimed at postgraduate students of spine surgery (both trainee neurosurgeons and trainee orthopedic surgeons), and is also of interest to medical students.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Perspectives in Business Informatics Research, BIR 2021. The conference was held during September 22-24, 2021. The 16 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: Technology adoption and acceptance during COVID-19 times; conceptual modeling for enterprise systems; enterprise modeling methods and frameworks; compliance and normative challenges; and empirical investigations on digital innovation and transformation prerequisites.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the methods and variety of Kelvin probe force microscopy, including technical details. It also offers an overview of the recent developments and numerous applications, ranging from semiconductor materials, nanostructures and devices to sub-molecular and atomic scale electrostatics. In the last 25 years, Kelvin probe force microscopy has developed from a specialized technique applied by a few scanning probe microscopy experts into a tool used by numerous research and development groups around the globe. This sequel to the editors’ previous volume “Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy: Measuring and Compensating Electrostatic Forces,” presents new and complementary topics. It is intended for a broad readership, from undergraduate students to lab technicians and scanning probe microscopy experts who are new to the field.
First Published in 1995. This collection explores the formation of identity in Asian literature. The main themes are the creation of identity, its nature and the historical context of this process of formation. At the same time, the study also serves to introduce readers to the various streams of Asian literature and their related research traditions. Suitable for course use.
