Varn
Der Avatar VARN betritt eine virtuelle Welt. Sein menschenscheuer Schöpfer vermag bald nicht mehr zu unterscheiden, ob er sich in der realen oder der virtuellen Welt befindet. Als er sich in Alida verliebt, scheint er einen Halt gefunden zu haben. Doch eine Tragödie bahnt sich an.
Pier Runners
Henry, der reichste Mensch der Welt, sitzt nach seinem Versuch, ein Kreuzfahrtschiff zur Umkehr zu bewegen, in einer Kajüte fest. Freiheit sei jedoch relativ, meint er unbeeindruckt und erzählt von seiner Begegnung mit dem seltsamen Bill. Den hatte er vorübergehend bei sich einziehen lassen. Nach und nach erschloss sich Henry nicht nur Bills Wesen, sondern er erhielt auch eine Ahnung über unser aller Schicksal.
Multiphoton Microscopy and Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging
This monograph demonstrates the latest developments in two-photon fluorescence microscopy and second-harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy, including coverage of high-resolution microscopy methods, such as STED microscopy. A special focus lies on clinical applications of these methods, e.g. in dermatology, ophtalmology, neuro sciences and cell biology.
International Law Today: New Challenges and the Need for Reform?
This collection of essays is based upon the presentations given at a symposium on the occasion of the 65th birthday of Professor Rüdiger Wolfrum in December 2006. The contributions cover a wide range of contemporary issues of international law, including state responsibility, crisis management, unity of law, deep sea genetic resources, liability for environmental damage in Antarctica, human rights and intellectual property, and the protection of minorities.
Grid Integration of Wind Energy
This popular reference describes the integration of wind-generated power into electrical power systems and, with the use of advanced control systems, illustrates how wind farms can be made to operate like conventional power plants. Fully revised, the third edition provides up-to-date coverage on new generator developments for wind turbines, recent technical developments in electrical power conversion systems, control design and essential operating conditions. With expanded coverage of offshore technologies, this edition looks at the characteristics and static and dynamic behaviour of offshore wind farms and their connection to the mainland grid. Brand new material includes: comprehensive tre...
Granularity in the Verbalization of Events and Objects
The study departs from the observation that in expressing ideas, some languages encode more details than others. It investigates whether languages encode events and/or objects at a coarse-grained (e.g., put, glass) as opposed to a fine-grained (e.g., lay, wine glass) level systematically. The level of detail is termed granularity, which is viewed as a cline from fine-grained (semantic specificity) to coarse-grained meaning (semantic generality). Four languages are investigated: German, English, Greek, and Turkish. The study draws on elicited data from a naming task. The verbalization of events is based on event and object descriptions in selected semantic domains. The results reveal significant granularity effects between languages and language types (satellite-framed vs. verb-framed). The study is relevant for scholars interested in linguistic typology, lexical and semantic typology, contrastive linguistics, event representation, psycholinguistics, and cognitive semantics.

Coexistence, Cooperation and Solidarity (2 vols.)
This Liber Amicorum, dedicated to Judge Rüdiger Wolfrum of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, highlights paradigmatic changes in international law, a body of law which moved during the 20th century from a law of coexistence to one of cooperation and which is now about to reflect notions of solidarity going even beyond cooperative undertakings. This leitmotif of Rüdiger Wolfrum’s academic research and judgeship is represented in a comprehensive collection of essays by eminent scholars and practitioners of international law covering specific aspects of international law, including law of the sea, human rights, international environmental law, international dispute settlement, peace and security, global governance and domestic law. With its multifaceted and comprehensive overview of the evolution of international law in recent years and detailed study of current challenges this collection is a unique source of insight for all those interested in this fascinating field of law.
