Dialektik und Rhetorik waren im mittelalterlichen Alltag allgegenwärtig. Die klassischen Schuldisziplinen, Grundlage scholastischer Wissenschaft, stehen im Zentrum dieses Sammelbandes. Die Autoren beschäftigen sich jeweils exemplarisch damit, welche sozialen, politischen aber auch moralischen Auswirkungen auf die gesellschaftliche Entwicklung die Omnipräsenz der rhetorischen und dialektischen Methoden hatte.

This book addresses the need to disseminate scientific knowledge of the complex world of spice plants to a wide audience of interest. It considers the economic usage of spices in several forms, as an ingredient for adding flavor, as a pot herb and as an additive for condiments such as ketchup, and mustard. Designed as a work of reference, it offers an easy to use systematic listing of international nomenclature. The book is aimed primarily at aroma experts in both science and industry, but also botanists, pharmacists, food chemists and dieticians will take inspiration from the book, which is also illustrated by around 100 full color photographs. - Comprehensive listing of over 1400 plants - Plant nomenclature from around the world - Arranged alphabetically for ease of reference - Exhaustive register of relevant literature for further reading.

This highly praised introductory treatment describes the parallels between statistical physics and finance - both those established in the 100-year long interaction between these disciplines, as well as new research results on financial markets. The random-walk technique, well known in physics, is also the basic model in finance, upon which are built, for example, the Black-Scholes theory of option pricing and hedging, plus methods of portfolio optimization. Here the underlying assumptions are assessed critically. Using empirical financial data and analogies to physical models such as fluid flows, turbulence, or superdiffusion, the book develops a more accurate description of financial markets based on random walks. With this approach, novel methods for derivative pricing and risk management can be formulated. Computer simulations of interacting-agent models provide insight into the mechanisms underlying unconventional price dynamics. It is shown that stock exchange crashes can be modelled in ways analogous to phase transitions and earthquakes, and sometimes have even been predicted successfully. This third edition of The Statistical Mechanics of Financial Markets especially stands apart from other treatments because it offers new chapters containing a practitioner's treatment of two important current topics in banking: the basic notions and tools of risk management and capital requirements for financial institutions, including an overview of the new Basel II capital framework which may well set the risk management standards in scores of countries for years to come.

Der Band enthält 30 Aufsätze, die papyrologische Gegebenheiten erörtern und so wichtige Beiträge zur historischen romanistischen Sprachwissenschaft liefern können. Behandelt werden u.a. die Bedeutung der Papyrologie für andere Wissenschaften (Romanistik, Germanistik), der antike griechisch-lateinische Sprachbund, die Wortgeschichte von ,Papyrus' in den antiken und modernen Sprachen Europas, Papyrusbelege für die Aussprache des Lateinischen, die durch Papyri genauer zu belegende Geschichte von 20 griechischen und lateinischen Wörtern und die Editionsprinzipien in der Klassischen Philologie, der Papyrologie und der Romanistik. Die Aufsätze stellen eine aktualisierte Neubearbeitung früherer Einzelveröffentlichungen dar; mehrere Indizes ermöglichen jetzt den Zugang zu den verschiedenen Abhandlungen.

This volume of Advances and Technical Standards in Neurosurgery covers some important new developments in functional neurosurgery and endovascular therapy. In the Technical Standards section a variety of topics are considered, including optic pathway gliomas, pineal lesions, cavernous sinus meningiomas, and the eternal problem of minor and repetitive head injury. Endovascular treatment of a variety of lesions is now common practice, and the state of the art in endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke is reviewed. An appraisal of the evidence on whether there is a place for microsurgical vascular decompression for essential hypertension raises interesting questions. The volume is completed by contributions on neurosurgical treatment of cluster headaches and occipital nerve stimulation.
