Zeitgemäße Spiritualität und Achtsamkeit im Leben von Kindern und Eltern. Wir leben in einer Zeit großer persönlicher Freiheit. Jedes Leben gestaltet sich individuell. Wie wir unsere Kinder aufwachsen lassen, ist nicht mehr kulturell einheitlich. Jeder wählt in vielen einzelnen Schritten seinen eigenen Weg des Elternseins. Das Vorbild, das wir unseren Kindern geben, die Atmosphäre, die wir schaffen, die innere Haltung, mit der wir leben, die Kommunikationsformen, derer wir uns selbst bedienen - all das prägt die Persönlichkeit unserer Kinder. Solveig C. Thorwart fragt im Buch, ob es möglich ist, die Familie, das Leben mit Kindern und in Gemeinschaft als Ort spirituellen Erwachens z...
This book focuses on the archaeology of the hunter-gatherer societies that inhabited Europe in the millennia between the Last Ice Age and the spread of agriculture, between 10,000 and 5,000 years ago. Traditionally viewed as a period of cultural stagnation, new data now demonstrate that this was a period of radical change and innovation. This was the period that witnessed the colonization of extensive new territory at high latitudes and high altitudes following postglacial climatic change, the development of seafaring, and the synthesis of the technological, economic, and social capabilities that underpinned the later development of agricultural and urban societies.
Volume 32 of Reviews in Mineralogy introduces the basic concepts of melt physics and relaxation theory as applied to silicate melts, then to describe the current state of experimental and computer simulation techniques for exploring the detailed atomic structure and dynamic processes which occur at high temperature, and finally to consider the relationships between melt structure, thermodynamic properties and rheology within these liquids. These fundamental relations serve to bridge the extrapolation from often highly simplified melt compositions studied in the laboratory to the multicomponent systems found in nature. This volume focuses on the properties of simple model silicate systems, wh...
In this, the first of six volumes, the main results of the excavations that the University of Oslo carried out at Kaupang from 1998 to 2003 are presented. A completely new picture is put forward of the port that Ottar visited in c.890. It is now clear that Kaupang was one of the four Scandinavian towns that were founded around the year 800. Kaupang is connected to the power centre of Skiringssal, to the Ynglings - the legendary Norwegian royal lineage, and to the King of the Danes - the dominant political actor in south-west Scandinavia. In nine of the book's 20 chapters, the excavations' finds, analyses and results are presented. Kaupang is shown to have had several of the same features rev...
Fifteen papers on recent advances in the study of the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic, rapidly developing fields of research.
This volume brings together an international collection of papers in which human-sea relations are analyzed through various temporal and spatial scales.
Efraim's Book is the sophisticated, offbeat novel about the peculiar society of post-World-II Berlin. Its hero George Efraim is a Jewish reporter who has fought for the British on the Italian front and lost both parents to Auschwitz. He returns home to Berlin in 1962 for the first time since the war to investigate the wartime disappearance of his editor's daughter, only to begin writing a novel, which helps him "to embark on a certain arrangement of signs with the help of which I hope to chart my position." Like the great German novels of Günter Grass and Heinrich Böll, Alfred Andersch's Efraim's Book grapples with the legacy of World War II and the Holocaust in all its horror and sad humanity. A troubling yet often humorous book, it offers a poignant account of the traumatized German state.
Designed for a one-semester undergraduate course in continuous linear systems, Continuous Signals and Systems with MATLAB®, Second Edition presents the tools required to design, analyze, and simulate dynamic systems. It thoroughly describes the process of the linearization of nonlinear systems, using MATLAB® to solve most examples and problems. With updates and revisions throughout, this edition focuses more on state-space methods, block diagrams, and complete analog filter design. New to the Second Edition • A chapter on block diagrams that covers various classical and state-space configurations • A completely revised chapter that uses MATLAB to illustrate how to design, simulate, and...
