IN THE LIGHT OF THE ELECTRON MICROSCOPE IN THE SHADOW OF THE NOBEL PRIZE
ENGLISH Nearly ninety and still in surprisingly good condition. Like no other research tool the electron microscope by the brothers Ernst and Helmut Ruska and their brother-in-law Bodo von Borries marks the dawn of modernity. Their avant-garde idea of 1931 to examine under a microscope with electrons has expanded human vision until today. The world's first commercial overmicroscope for discoveries in the world of the smallest followed in Berlin 1939. 1948 the German development and application of overmicroscopy was revived in Düsseldorf. As a key instrument of research it has completed a triumphant march and it has won the attention of the Nobel Prize Committee for awards twice. 1986 the No...
Barbara Kruger
Five decades of iconic and incisive art from Barbara Kruger Since the mid-1970s, Barbara Kruger (born 1945) has been interrogating consumer culture in works that often combine visual and written language. In her singular graphic style, Kruger probes aspects of identity, desire and consumerism that are embedded in our everyday lives. This volume traces her continuously evolving practice to reveal how she adapts her work in accordance with the moment, site and context. The book features a range of striking images--from her analogue paste-ups of the 1980s to digital productions of the last two decades, including new works produced on the occasion of the exhibition. Also featured are singular wo...
Winterplanet
Der Weltraum, unendliche Weiten. Wir schreiben das Jahr 3167. Dies sind die Abenteuer des Forschungsraumschiffs VASCO DA GAMA, das mit seiner Besatzung von 330 Männern und Frauen unterwegs ist, um fremde Sonnensysteme, astrophysikalische Wunder zu erforschen, neues Leben und neue Zivilisationen. Viele Lichtjahre von der Heimat entfernt dringt die VASCO in unbekannte Bereiche der Galaxis vor, die nie ein Mensch zuvor gesehen hat. Das 700 Meter durchmessende irrikonische Forschungsraumschiff VASCO DA GAMA soll in der unendlichen Weite des Kosmos kartographische Arbeiten durchführen und sich einem Schwarzen Loch nähern. Was sich jedoch als sehr übersichtlich erweist. Der Bereich, in dem das Forschungsschiff zurzeit unterwegs ist, ist sternenleer. Die Hauptaufgabe besteht jedoch darin, das Schwarze Loch näher zu untersuchen, welches einige Merkmale aufweist, die kein aktives Schwarzes Loch aufweist.
Ageing and the Glass Transition
Understanding cooperative phenomena far from equilibrium is one of the fascinating challenges of present-day many-body physics. Glassy behaviour and the physical ageing process of such materials are paradigmatic examples. The present volume, primarily intended as introduction and reference, collects six extensive lectures addressing selected experimental and theoretical issues in the field of glassy systems.
Birds of Kruger National Park
South Africa's Kruger National Park is one of the largest and most iconic conservation areas in Africa. Habitats range from wide-open savannah and rugged thornveld to broadleaved mopani woodland. This microhabitat variation gives Kruger a phenomenal diversity of some 520 bird species, half of which are resident. From Africa's most extraordinary eagles, like the scarlet-faced Bateleur, to electric-colored glossy-starlings and jewel-like finches, Kruger offers an avian celebration of form and color. It is also a crucial conservation area, supporting South Africa's largest viable populations of vultures, eagles, and large terrestrial birds. This field guide offers a unique window into the world...
