Cold Wars
A new interpretation of the Cold War from the perspective of the smaller and middle powers in Asia, the Middle East and Europe.
Health and Quality of Life
How could one define health and disease? On what presuppositions, and ought we look for such definitions? Does quality of life inherit a subjective or objective evaluation? Are health and quality of life culture dependent concepts? Under the conditions of technologically advanced medicine and the common tendency towards a hedonistic lifestyle such questions come into focus. Hence, one question is of special relevance: which role does health play in our quality of life? The contributions of this interdisciplinary volume aim at the clarification of the various concepts in use. International scholars and scientists outline the framework for a more comprehensive and demanding concept of health and quality of life including philosophical and cultural aspects as well as medical and psychological dimensions.

Wicked Runaway: A Mark Cannidor Adventure
The adventures of Mark Cannidor begin in this brand new series where the true meaning of magic is soon to be unveiled. Mark Cannidor has grown up as an ordinary boy living on a northern farm in Victorian England. On his thirteenth birthday, he is kidnapped by the darkest wizard of the age, Captain Sigourney Malcheffi. Soon, Mark is steered into a world of magic, pirates, vampires and myths as he is rescued and taken to the mysterious island of Alliva. Wicked Runaway is the first in a series inspired by the likes of Charles Dickens, the Brothers Grimm and JK Rowling. As Mark encounters this new world of magic, he soon realises who he truly is and learns to believe in himself and those around him.
Infrared Ellipsometry on Semiconductor Layer Structures
The study of semiconductor-layer structures using infrared ellipsometry is a rapidly growing field within optical spectroscopy. This book offers basic insights into the concepts of phonons, plasmons and polaritons, and the infrared dielectric function of semiconductors in layered structures. It describes how strain, composition, and the state of the atomic order within complex layer structures of multinary alloys can be determined from an infrared ellipsometry examination. Special emphasis is given to free-charge-carrier properties, and magneto-optical effects. A broad range of experimental examples are described, including multinary alloys of zincblende and wurtzite structure semiconductor materials, and future applications such as organic layer structures and highly correlated electron systems are proposed.
Silicon Chemistry
Silicon and silicon compounds have contributed decisively to the technical progress. Technical applications range from mass commodities to highly sophisticated special materials, from ceramics to polymers, from medicine to microelectronics. To keep pace with scientific and technical developments Germany and Austria have established national priority programs, strongly linked to each other as well as to some Swiss groups. At mid-term of the German program and the end of the first funding period of the Austrian program the results are summarized in this special edition of the journal Monatshefte für Chemie/Chemical Monthly, giving an excellent overview of the current chemical (and partly phys...
Handbook of Self Assembled Semiconductor Nanostructures for Novel Devices in Photonics and Electronics
The self-assembled nanostructured materials described in this book offer a number of advantages over conventional material technologies in a wide range of sectors. World leaders in the field of self-organisation of nanostructures review the current status of research and development in the field, and give an account of the formation, properties, and self-organisation of semiconductor nanostructures. Chapters on structural, electronic and optical properties, and devices based on self-organised nanostructures are also included. Future research work on self-assembled nanostructures will connect diverse areas of material science, physics, chemistry, electronics and optoelectronics. This book wil...
