Acid Rain - Deposition to Recovery
This book looks at the sources and composition of the atmosphere and rainfall, with particular attention on acidifying components and those that affect ecosystems. It further widens the subject to look at trace metals. It includes papers on the impact of deposition on soils and forests and the recovery of the natural environment. Work on critical loads makes a contribution to understanding the degree to which deposition must be reduced to limit its impact.
The Effects of Air Pollution on Cultural Heritage
This book reviews the sources of the air pollutants responsible for building damage and the mechanisms involved. Studies investigating the relationships between pollution concentration (dose) and the resulting damage (response) are described and the latest research findings for dose-response functions are presented. Trends in pollutant emissions, ambient concentrations and building damage over time are described and future predictions are presented. Methodologies for assessing the extent of the potential problem in a region – the stock at risk – are presented. Procedures for estimating the economic implications are described and the consequences are discussed in detail, because economic factors are important for reaching policy and management decisions at local, national and international scales. Damage to cultural heritage buildings is an important additional effect which needs to be considered as the standards are revised and the factors which will need to be brought into the assessment are presented.

Narrative Mechanics
What do stories in games have in common with political narratives? This book identifies narrative strategies as mechanisms for meaning and manipulation in games and real life. It shows that the narrative mechanics so clearly identifiable in games are increasingly used (and abused) in politics and social life. They have »many faces«, displays and interfaces. They occur as texts, recipes, stories, dramas in three acts, movies, videos, tweets, journeys of heroes, but also as rewarding stories in games and as narratives in society – such as a career from rags to riches, the concept of modernity or market economy. Below their surface, however, narrative mechanics are a particular type of motivational design – of game mechanics.
Unternehmensführung in der Wirtschaftskrise unter Berücksichtigung ethischer und moralischer Grundgedanken
Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: Der Kapitalismus hat in den letzten Jahrzehnten eine durchgehende Phase des wirtschaftlichen Aufschwungs und des Wohlstands hervorgebracht. Technischer Fortschritt, gestiegene Lebensqualität, individuelle Freiheit, die Chancen zum sozialen Aufstieg, sind nur einige der Aspekte die mit dem Kapitalismus assoziiert wurden. Die weltweite Vernetzung der Nationalökonomien und der Finanzindustrie hat dabei das theoretische Wirtschaftspotenzial für den Kapitalismus ebenfalls erheblich erweitert. Vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Wirtschafts- und Finanzkrise geraten allerdings auch die Schwachpunkte der kapitalistischen Theorie immer mehr in den Fokus der Ökonomen. Beson...
