Qualität im Kinderfernsehen
Dass Qualität im Kinderprogramm ein Muss ist, darüber sind sich WissenschaftlerInnen und PraktikerInnen einig. Doch was ist Qualität im Kinderfernsehen und wie kann sie gemessen werden? Sara Signer Widmer analysiert das Thema anhand von Definitionen empirisch und mit einem mehrmethodischen Untersuchungsdesign: Mit sieben verschiedenen empirischen Studien kann sie die offenen Forschungsfragen zu Qualität im Kinderfernsehen klären. Die Methodenvielfalt bietet eine umfassende Beurteilung von Qualität im Kinderfernsehen auf Angebotsebene sowie aus Sicht der Rezipienten, wobei insbesondere die Kinderperspektive berücksichtigt wird. Die praxisrelevanten Befunde fordern auf zu einer weiteren Diskussion um Qualität im Kinderfernsehen.
Untertitel im Kinderfernsehen
Intralinguale Untertitel sind in Deutschland seit den 1980er Jahren aus dem öffentlich-rechtlichen Fernsehen bekannt. Eine besondere Herausforderung sind Untertitel für Kinder, vor allem, da Letztere noch Lesen lernen. Das Lesen von Untertiteln verlangt von Kindern folglich oft eine größere Anstrengung als von Erwachsenen. Werden sie von dieser heterogenen Zielgruppe dennoch als Hilfsmittel positiv angenommen? Maria Wünsche hat die Verständlichkeit untertitelter Sendungen in einer Studie mit 150 Kindern zwischen acht und zwölf Jahren untersucht. Bei der Auswertung verknüpft sie Perspektiven aus Translations- und Sozialwissenschaften sowie der Verständlichkeitsforschung und bündelt relevante Verständlichkeitsfaktoren für untertitelte Kommunikate. Das Ergebnis sind wichtige Erkenntnisse dazu, wie Untertitel für gebärden- und lautsprachlich orientierte Kinder mit einer Hörbehinderung gestaltet werden sollten, um eine größtmögliche Verständlichkeit zu gewährleisten.
Statistical Ecology
Covering a wide range of disciplines, this book explains the formulae, techniques, and methods used in field ecology. By providing an awareness of the statistical foundation for existing methods, the book will make biologists more aware of the strengths and possible weaknesses of procedures employed, and statisticians more appreciative of the needs of the field ecologist. Unique to this book is a focus on ecological data for single-species populations, from sampling through modeling. Examples come from real situations in pest management, forestry, wildlife biology, plant protection, and environmental studies, as well as from classical ecology. All those using this book will acquire a strong foundation in the statistical methods of modern ecological research. This textbook is for late undergraduate and graduate students, and for professionals.
Grassroots Innovation
A moral dilemma gripped Professor Gupta when he was invited by the Bangladeshi government to help restructure their agricultural sector in 1985. He noticed how the marginalized farmers were being paid poorly for their otherwise unmatched knowledge. The gross injustice of this constant imbalance led Professor Gupta to found what would turn into a resounding social and ethical movement—the Honey Bee Network—bringing together and elevating thousands of grassroots innovators. For over two decades, Professor Gupta has travelled through rural lands unearthing innovations by the ranks—from the famed Mitti Cool refrigerator to the footbridge of Meghalaya. He insists that to fight the largest and most persistent problems of the world we must eschew expensive research labs and instead, look towards ordinary folk. Innovation—that oft-flung around word—is stripped to its core in this book. Poignant and personal, Grassroots Innovation is an important treatise from a social crusader of our time.
Time in the Philosophy of Gabriel Marcel
Gabriel Marcel (1889-1973) stands outside the traditional canon of twentieth-century French philosophers. Where he is not simply forgotten or overlooked, he is dismissed as a 'relentlessly unsystematic' thinker, or, following Jean-Paul Sartre's lead, labelled a 'Christian existentialist' - a label that avoids consideration of Marcel's work on its own terms. How is one to appreciate Marcel's contribution, especially when his oeuvre appears to be at odds with philosophical convention? Helen Tattam proposes a range of readings as opposed to one single interpretation, a series of departures or explorations that bring his work into contact with critical partners such as Henri Bergson, Paul Ricoeur and Emmanuel Lévinas, and offer insights into a host of twentieth-century philosophical shifts concerning time, the subject, the other, ethics, and religion. Helen Tattam's ambitious study is an impressively lucid account of Marcel's engagement with the problem of time and lived experience, and is her first monograph since the award of her doctorate from the University of Nottingham.

Art Crime
Since the Second World War, art crime has shifted from a relatively innocuous, often ideological crime, into a major international problem, considered by some to be the third-highest grossing criminal trade worldwide. This rich volume features essays on art crime by the most respected and knowledgeable experts in this interdisciplinary subject.
Earth, Water, Air, Fire
Forced to interact with the natural elements that invigorate a built structure and co-determine a building's experiential reality during construction, one ought to keep in mind their brute powers - earth's crushing heaviness, the erratic character of water, air's thermo-dynamic cataclysms, or the dangerous benignity of fire. Affective in a direct way, they act as guiding principles in the process of realization: While the earth targets the foundations, the roof shields from water, the openings control the flow of air, and the walls protect from the gleaming sun.
