Overview: The present publication is a continuation of two earlier series of chronicles, Philosophy in the Mid-Century (Firenze 1958/59) and Contemporary Philosophy (Firenze 1968), edited by Raymond Klibansky. As with the earlier series the present surveys purport to give a survey of significant trends in contemporary philosophical discussion. The need for such surveys has, I believe, increased rather than decreased over the last years. The philosophical scene appears, for various reasons, rather more complex than ever before. The continuing process of specialization in most branches, the emer

Overview: Aus der Fülle dessen, was uns im Lauf der Jahrzehnte eines Lebens in der Klinik erfahrbar begegnet, was sich uns dort zuspricht, vernehmen wir nur einen kleinen Teil. Das meiste aber zieht an uns vorüber, ohne in uns eine Spur zu hinterlassen. Wir vernehmen zun?chst das, worauf wir von unseren Lehrern und der übernommenen Lehre verwiesen werden, was unseren zeit- bedingten, theoretischen Vorstellungen entspricht. Es zeugt schon von einer guten empirischen Begabung, wenn einer sieht, was ihm keiner gezeigt hat. Gerade dem guten Empiriker dr?ngt sich die Erkenntnis auf, wie vieles, was

It contains a series of application case studies related to the developed holist

Overview: The papacy of Pius XII (1939-1958) has been a source of near-constant criticism and debate since his death, particularly because of his alleged silence during the Holocaust. Paul O‘Shea examines his little-studied pre-papal life to demonstrate that Pius was neither an anti-Semitic villain nor a ‘lamb without stain.‘978-0-230-11080-9978-0-230-11836-2

Overview: .Assembly lines are productive systems, which are very efficient for homogeneous products. In the automotive industry, an assembly line is used in the production of several vehicle variants, including numerous configurations, options, and add-ins. As a result, assembly lines must be at the same time specialized to provide high efficiency, but also flexible to allow the mass customization of the vehicles. In this book, the planning of assembly lines for uncertain demand is tackled and optimization algorithms are offered for the balancing of such lines. Building an assembly line is a c
