Book synopsis: The collection of papers of this book discuss Whitehead's bold theory of perception from different angles. According to the major perspectives the book is divided into two major parts: the philosophical and the psychological perspective. The four philosophical papers focus on: the relation between Whitehead's theory of perception and his account of the phases of concrescence, the na
In this chapter, I introduce an analytical framework to explain a particular type of institutional interplay— conflicts among international regimes—and to support the analysis of interplay management within institutional complexes. Over the past two decades, regime conflicts have become more frequent in global environmental governance, sometimes including not only environmental regimes but also re
Popular Abstract in Swedish I alla tider har människan förundrats och fascinerats över det stillsamma, men samtidigt spektakulära skådespel, som himlen erbjuder en stjärnklar natt. I tusentals år har vi ställt oss frågan: var någonstans i detta gnistrande myller av stjärnor och planeter, kometer och meteorer, passar vi in? Genom århundradena har vår roll i detta skådespel blivit alltmer undanskuffEta Carinae is a super-massive, super-luminous star. It is surrounded by a bipolar nebula, the "Homunculus", and several blobs of ejected gas which are the source of a complex emission-line spectrum. This thesis presents results from spectroscopic investigations of the star and its surroundings, performed with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) and the Goddard High Resolution Spectrog
This three-volume set includes seminal journal articles and book excerpts dealing with various aspects of diplomacy. Volume I deals with the theory of diplomacy, Volume II with the history of diplomacy, and Volume III with problems and issues in contemporary diplomacy.
Om monumentuppföranden som gensvar på nationalistiska strömningar under 1800- och 1900-talen.
What is the relation between scientific explanation and understanding? The thesis investigates a notion of understanding that is believed to be central to scientific explanation. The role of understanding in explanation is double: it is both an essential component, as well as a criterion, by which we select bona fide explanations from non-explanations. The model of explanation that is outlined in
Popular Abstract in Swedish Alla levande organismer har DNA, och eftersom DNA är livsnödvändigt måste det repareras om det blir skadat. Ultraviolett (UV) strålning från solen är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till att DNA skadas. De flesta skador på DNA som orsakas av UV-strålning utgörs av cyklobutan-pyrimidindimerer (CPD) eller (6-4)-fotoprodukter. Dessa skador består av två intilliggande baser sAll living organisms have DNA and since DNA is essential to life it must be repaired when damaged. UV radiation is one of the major DNA damaging agents, which photosynthetic organisms cannot avoid. The major UV-induced DNA lesions are cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and (6-4) photoproducts (6-4PPs) and the main repair pathways of theses lesions involve photolyases and various excision repair
Boken Öronakupunktur är lättläst och tänkt att användas som lärobok. För yrkesutövare kommer boken förhoppningsvis att användas som referenslitteratur i det dagliga akupunkturarbetet. Den kan också läsas av en bredare läsekrets med ett allmänt intresse för öronakupunktur.
There are water vapour condensation and two-phase flow in plate heat exchangers when they are used as condensers. Water phase change and flow dynamics modelling is an important but complicated task due to large change in water physical/transport properties across the water liquid-vapour interface boundary. In particular, singular-link behaviour in governing equations is present due to the large st
