The Origins of German Self-Cultivation
Recent devaluations of a liberal arts education call the formative concept of Bildung, a defining model of self-cultivation rooted in 18th and 19th century German philosophy and culture, into question and force us to reconsider what it once meant and now means to be an “educated” individual. This volume uses an arc of interdisciplinary scholarship to map both the epistemological origins and cultural expressions of the pivotal notion of Bildung at the heart of pursuit in the humanities. From its intriguing original historical manifestations to its continuing resonance in current ongoing debates surrounding the humanities, the editors urge us to ask and discover how the classical concept of Bildung, so central to humanistic inquiry, was historically imagined and applied in its original German context.
Dynamics of the Il-2 Cytokine Network and T-cell Proliferation
This book adds to a intensively investigated question of immunological research. How do regulatory T cells mediate their function to ensure tolerance against self-antigen? The author analyzes the interaction via the cytokine interleukin 2 between T helper cells, which mediate immune responses, and regulatory T cells. Since both cell types depend on interleukin 2 to mediate their functions, competition for interleukin 2 is likely. A mathematical model is developed to describe the interaction. This model focuses on the interleukin 2 receptor dynamics on helper and regulatory T cells and the extracellular interleukin 2 diffusion. The interleukin 2 receptor dynamics is governed mainly by an auto...
Stochastic Regulation of the Interleukin-4 Gene
This book focuses on the expression variability of highly regulated genes in multi-cellular organisms through a multidisciplinary approach combining quantitative measurements and mathematical modeling. For this purpose, the cytokine gene Interleukin-4 (IL-4) in murine type-2 (Th2) lymphocytes was chosen as prototypical model system of an inducible gene regulated at the epigenetic and transductional level. As many cytokines, IL-4 is expressed in a probabilistic manner, but the underlying molecular mechanisms behind this phenomenon are still unresolved. Through an iterative process of quantitative measurements and mathematical analysis, the author develops a computational model able to predict...

New Light Sources for Quantum Information Processing -- Single Photons from Single Quantum Dots and Cavity-Enhanced Parametric Down-Conversion
The outstanding research efforts in quantum information processing over the past two decades reflect the promise this field of physics provides for practical applications in information science as well as for new approaches towards a better understanding of fundamental questions in quantum mechanics. This thesis focuses on the photon as a principal resource to perform quantum information tasks and on schemes to imprint quantum bits onto its various degrees of freedom. Its weak coupling to the environment makes the photon an ideal carrier to securely transmit information by quantum cryptographic protocols. Moreover, efficient implementations of quantum computing using solely linear optics hav...
Teaching Young Learners in Bilingual Settings
Bilingual education, or CLIL, at primary school varies greatly across European educational contexts. Teaching Young Learners in Bilingual Settings reports on a study that explored one such CLIL context in Dortmund, Germany. Through interviews and classroom observations, the researcher and author sought not only to document some of what takes place in CLIL classrooms but to describe and understand teachers' thoughts and beliefs about their CLIL teaching practices. This research contributes to a better understanding of primary school CLIL programs and teachers and is relevant for researchers working in the fields of foreign language education, bilingual education, and language teacher cognition research. Furthermore, the insights into CLIL teachers' thinking can support CLIL teachers, administrators, and policy makers as they seek to further develop CLIL pedagogy and programs.
Contributions from Science Education Research
In August 2005, over 500 researchers from the field of science education met at the 5th European Science Education Research Association conference. Two of the main topics at this conference were: the decrease in the number of students interested in school science and concern about the worldwide outcomes of studies on students’ scientific literacy. This volume includes edited versions of 37 outstanding papers presented, including the lectures of the keynote speakers.
Helmut Schön
FUSSBALLBUCH DES JAHRES 2017!Durch seine großen Triumphe bei Welt- und Europameisterschaften gilt Helmut Schön bis heute als der erfolgreichste Nationaltrainer der Welt. Seine Mannschaft um Franz Beckenbauer und Günter Netzer zelebrierte zauberhaft schönen Fußball.Dieses sorgsam recherchierte Buch schildert Schöns Lebensweg: seine Nationalspieler-Karriere in der NS-Zeit, sein Überleben im kriegsverheerten Dresden, die Konflikte mit DDR-Funktionären, sein Ringen mit dem Trainerpatriarchen Sepp Herberger und sein Verhältnis zur Spielergeneration der rebellischen siebziger Jahre. Fünf Jahrzehnte deutscher Fußball, spannend verdichtet in der ersten Biografie über den berühmten Trainer.
