This volume opens by providing a comprehensive overview of the use and regulation of metals in our society, metal properties, and available testing methodologies. Common and uncommon metal allergens and sources of exposure are then reviewed in depth, detailing allergic responses and paying special consideration to select patient populations. In the general population, the prevalence of metal allergy is high. Environmental sources of metal exposure include jewelry, clothing, electronic devices, coins, leather, diet, and occupational exposure. Metal allergy may result in allergic contact dermatitis and systemic contact dermatitis, as well as several less common manifestations. Further, metal allergy has been associated with device failure and/or dermatitis following implantation of medical devices and dental implants. As metals are ubiquitous, this book will be indispensable for a wide range of clinicians and investigators. This handy reference will meet the needs of all health professionals and investigators who are interested in metal allergy and its diagnosis and management.
Examining European art films of the 1950s and 1960s, Mark Betz argues that it istime for film analysis to move beyond prevailing New Wave historiography, mired in outdated notions of nationalism and dragged down by decades of auteurist criticism. Focusing on the cinemas of France and Italy, Betz reveals how the flowering of European art films in the postwar era is inseparable from the complex historical and political frameworks of the time.

In Middle-Class Pentecostalism in Argentina: Inappropriate Spirits Jens Köhrsen offers an intriguing account of how the middle class relates to Latin America's most vibrant religious movement. Based on pervasive field research, this study suggests that Pentecostalism stands in tension with the social imaginary of the middle class and is perceived as an inappropriate lower class practice. As such, middle class Pentecostals negotiate the appropriateness of their religious belonging by demonstrating distinctive tastes and styles of Pentecostalism. Abstaining from the expressiveness, emotionality, and strong spiritual practice that have marked the movement, they create a milder and socially more acceptable form of Pentecostalism. Increasingly turning into a middle class movement, this style has the potential to embody the future shape of Pentecostalism.
The second edition of Hot Embossing: Theory of Microreplication will present the current state of the art in microreplication with a focus on hot embossing, nanoimprint, thermoforming, and roll-to-roll replication. Polymer processing, the theory of polymers and the processing of polymers are discussed in detail. Aspects of process simulation and the corresponding material models are also covered. The book contains in-depth analysis of processing processes and replication techniques including mold fabrication. Monitoring, data analysis and reliability of molded parts is also discussed. In the Second Edition new processes are included, including the process of micro- and nanothermoforming to g...

Introduction by Magdalena Broska. Text by Suzanne Hudson.
Zwei Jahre habe ich gebraucht, um dieses Buch erzählen zu können. Auf der ganzen Welt habe ich gesucht, um an das Buch von Max Seipel geb.am 14 Juni 1850 gest. 18.07. 1913 in Marburg. zu kommen. Unter dem Titel ,,Gudula von Hardenberg“. In Australien bin ich fündig geworden bei Nachkommen deutscher Auswanderer. Ich habe es bearbeitet und ergänzt, im ein neues Gesicht gegeben. Es erscheint unter dem Titel,, Die Sagenumwobene Burg Hardenstein an der Ruhr“. Die Quelle des Naturwissenschaftlichen Teils ist Rektor Schluckebier Aufbauend auf Gerrit Haren und weiterführende Literatur.
Mit der Invasion Siziliens durch britische und US-Einheiten im Juli 1943 begann auch die Militärverwaltung durch die Alliierten in Italien. Der Zusammenbruch des faschistischen Regimes, der Waffenstillstand zwischen den Alliierten und Italien und der italienische Frontenwechsel änderten deren Bedingungen und Kontexte massiv. Ohnehin verlor die weitreichende Vorbereitung auf die Besatzung bei der Konfrontation mit süditalienischen Dorfstrukturen und Stadtgesellschaften rasch an Wert. An diesem Punkt setzt die Studie ein, die mit einem praxistheoretisch informierten transnationalen Ansatz einen Beitrag zur Geschichte des Zweiten Weltkriegs im Mittelmeerraum leistet. Sie untersucht die zahlr...
Alfred Posch untersucht zwischenbetriebliche Recyclingkooperationen aus sozial- und wirtschaftswissenschaftlicher Perspektive. Er analysiert, welche theoretischen Ansätze, insbesondere aus dem Bereich der Organisationstheorie, geeignet sind, das Phänomen industrieller Verwertungsnetze zu erklären, und entwirft ein innovatives Konzept, mit dem industrielle Verwertungsnetze zu so genannten Nachhaltigkeitsnetzwerken weiterentwickelt werden können.
