Constructing the Expanding Universe provides students with a comprehensive exploration of the history of the evolving cosmos. In the text, the universe is seen as both physically and intellectually expanding as its physical characteristics evolve and our knowledge of the cosmos grows.

Constructing the Expanding Universe provides students with a comprehensive exploration of the history of the evolving cosmos. In the text, the universe is seen as both physically and intellectually expanding as its physical characteristics evolve and our knowledge of the cosmos grows. It introduces students to fundamental scientific concepts that nurture the scientist in each and every reader. Chapter 1 helps students understand how astronomical objects are observed and identified. The focus is on the basic patterns in nature, such as daily and seasonal motion of celestial bodies visible to the naked eye. Chapter 2 explores the history of astronomy up to the scientific revolution, including ...
This book engages with the most urgent philosophical questions pertaining to the problem of terrorism. What is terrorism? Could it ever be justified? Assuming that terrorism is just one of many kinds of political violence, the book denies that it is necessarily wrong and worse than war. In fact, it may be justifiable under certain circumstances.

th The 29 International Conference was held as the first one of the millennium at its Fort Lauderdale venue. These conferences began, with High Energy Physics being the main topic, by introducing gradually cosmology into its programs. These proceedings of the 2000 conference reflect the variety of topics and ideas discussed. Our future conferences will be designed somewhat akin to the early Coral Gables Conferences where we shall seek some convergence of ideas. For this reason various committees have been formed from among the participating physicists. The committees and their memberships are listed in these proceedings. We further decided for the first time to include some graduate student ...
This book examines the development of peace research and explores its present challenges, focusing on the contribution made by the Copenhagen Peace Research Institute. The authors investigate how peace research relates to security studies and international relations, providing a comprehensive study of conceptual innovations and a discussion of security analysis in the European context.
Das Völkerrecht gilt als eine der zentralen Friedensstrategien. Zugleich ist das Paradigma „Frieden durch Recht“ nicht unumstritten. Es speist sich aus verschiedenen Rechtstraditionen, die jeweils einen eigenen Interessenschwerpunkt vornehmen. Welche Aspekte hierbei zentral sind und welche Implikationen sich aus den jeweiligen juristischen Diskursen in der Rechtstradition für die Debatte um die rechtserhaltende Gewalt ergeben, steht im Zentrum des Bandes. Er nimmt verschiedene Rechtstraditionen vergleichend in den Blick. Dabei wird der Fokus insbesondere auf die ständigen Mitglieder des UN-Sicherheitsrates und Deutschland gelegt.
