Supraleitung: Grundlagen und Anwendungen
by Werner Buckel Reinhold KleinerSupraleitung Seit mehr als 50 Jahren das maßgebliche deutschsprachige Lehrbuch zur Supraleitung Supraleitung, also das Verschwinden des elektrischen Widerstands in Materialien unterhalb einer kritischen Temperatur, ist längst kein Kuriosum mehr, sondern ein Phänomen, das zahlreiche Anwendungen gefunden hat, etwa zur Erzeugung und Detektion von Magnetfeldern, in der Sensorik (SQUIDs), zur zerstörungsfreien Materialprüfung, in Energietransport und -umwandlung und in der magnetischen Energiespeicherung. Die achte Auflage des Standard-Lehrbuchs zur Supraleitung folgt dem bewährten Ansatz, das physikalische Phänomen der Supraleitung in seinen zahlreichen Facetten möglichst anschaulich und ohne allzu viel mathematischen Ballast zu erklären. Ausgehend von einem Überblick über die wichtigsten, zum Verständnis benötigen quantenmechanischen Grundlagen behandelt das Buch die unterschiedlichen Supraleiter-Materialklassen, etwa die metallischen Supraleiter, Kuprate und Eisenpniktide. Die Schwerpunkte liegen dabei auf den Eigenschaften, der Herstellung und der Stabilität dieser Materialien. Die folgenden Kapitel beleuchten die Erklärungsmodelle der Supraleitung, die Thermodynamik des supraleitenden Zustands sowie dessen Zusammenbrechen. Ausführlich geht das Buch auf die für den praktischen Nutzen so wichtigen Josephson-Kontakte ein. Das letzte Kapitel widmet sich den zahlreichen Anwendungen der Supraleitung, zum Beispiel supraleitende Kabel, in der Kernspintomographie, der Kernfusion, der SQUID-Sensorik sowie der Mikroelektronik. Für die Neuauflage wurde das Buch vollständig überarbeitet und mit Elementen angereichert, die das Verständnis fördern und das Lernen erleichtern wie etwa Kapiteleinführungen, Exkurse zur Messmethodik, mehr durchgerechnete Beispiele, Boxen zur Vertiefung weiterführender Aspekte und Kapitelzusammenfassungen.

Surgical Anatomy and Exposures of the Knee: A Surgical Atlas
by Bertram Zarins Robert ŚmigielskiIn many medical schools, the teaching of anatomy has been reduced. Since most knee operations today are performed with the aid of an arthroscope, an orthopedic resident may infrequently be exposed to open knee surgery. Therefore, today’s orthopaedic surgeon may have inadequate knowledge of knee anatomy and little experience with open knee operations. However, in a typical orthopaedic practice, open knee surgery is still required, especially in trauma. This book is written to fill this knowledge gap.This anatomical and surgical atlas is different from other anatomy books in many respects. It is written for surgeons. Anatomical structures that are surgically important are emphasized, whereas those that have little clinical bearing are not stressed. Structures are shown in the position of the knee that surgery is typically performed, such as 90 degrees flexion for medial and lateral approaches. Plentiful high-resolution photographs and illustrations of meticulous new dissections are presented. New imaging techniques are used to demonstrate structures, such as MRI and high-resolution computed tomography. Structures are demonstrated at varying degrees of knee flexion, such as the patellofemoral articulation. Commonly used surgical exposures are clearly described and illustrated.Written by orthopaedic surgeons who have years of hands-on experience, Surgical Anatomy and Exposures of the Knee will be a tremendous resource to refresh knowledge of pertinent knee anatomy, plan a surgical exposure, and avoid complications of open knee surgery.

A Surrealist Stratigraphy of Dorothea Tanning’s Chasm (Studies in Surrealism)
by Catriona McAraIn A Surrealist Stratigraphy of Dorothea Tanning’s Chasm, Catriona McAra offers the first critical study of the literary work of the celebrated American painter and sculptor Dorothea Tanning (1910–2012). McAra fills a major gap in the scholarship, repositioning Tanning’s writing at the centre of her entire creative oeuvre and focusing on a little-known short story "Abyss," a gothic-flavoured, desert adventure which Tanning worked on intermittently throughout her creative life, finally publishing it in 2004 as Chasm: A Weekend.McAra performs a major reassessment of the visual and literary principles upon which the surrealist movement was initially founded. Combining a groundbreaking methodological approach with reference to cultural theory and feminist aesthetics as well as Tanning’s unpublished journals and notes, McAra reveals Tanning as a key player in contemporary art practice as well as in the historical surrealist milieu.

The Survival of the Jews in France, 1940-44
by Jacques SemelinBetween the French defeat in 1940 and liberation in 1944, the Nazis killed almost 80,000 of France's Jews, both French and foreign. Since that time, this tragedy has been well-documented. But there are other stories hidden within it-ones neglected by historians. In fact, 75% of France's Jews escaped the extermination, while 45% of the Jews of Belgium perished, and in the Netherlands only 20% survived. The Nazis were determined to destroy the Jews across Europe, and the Vichy regime collaborated in their deportation from France. So what is the meaning of this French exception? Jacques Semelin sheds light on this 'French enigma', painting a radically unfamiliar view of occupied France. His is a rich, even-handed portrait of a complex and changing society, one where helping and informing on one's neighbours went hand in hand; and where small gestures of solidarity sat comfortably with anti-Semitism. Without shying away from the horror of the Holocaust's crimes, this seminal work adds a fresh perspective to our history of the Second World War.
Survival of the Virtuous: The Evolution of Moral Psychology
by Dennis L. KrebsDo good guys finish last? Did we evolve to look out for number one? Are we bad by nature? At first glance, the theory of evolution seems to imply that all organisms are evolved to be selfish. In this book, evolutionary psychologist Dennis Krebs explains how virtuous behaviors such as altruism, justice, honesty, loyalty, self-control, purity, and respect for authority, have evolved in humans and other species. He argues that the key to solving puzzles of morality--such as what it is, how we acquire moral traits, why we sometimes behave badly, and how we make moral decisions--lies in figuring out what adaptive functions moral traits served in early human environments and how they are influenced by social learning, culture, and strategic social interactions in the modern world. Arguing that the primary function of virtuous behaviors is to enable individuals to advance their own interests and examining the moral decision-making mechanisms that evolved to serve these functions, this book considers the "new brain" mechanisms that are unique to humans and "old brain" mechanisms that we share with other species, illuminating how these work in conjunction with each other to guide our moral choices. Survival of the Virtuous is accessibly written for academic and scholarly readers interested in understanding how moral traits evolved in the human species.

Surviving Biafra: A Nigerwife's Story
by S. Elizabeth Bird Rosina UmeloIn 1961, Rosina 'Rose' Martin married John Umelo, a young Nigerian she met on a London Tube station platform, eventually moving to Nigeria with him and their children. As Rose taught Classics in Enugu, they found themselves caught up in Nigeria's Civil War, which followed the 1967 secession of Eastern Nigeria--now named Biafra. The family fled to John's ancestral village, then moved from place to place as the war closed in. When it ended in 1970, up to 2 million had died, most from starvation. Rose ('worse off than some, better off than many') had kept notes, capturing the reality of living in Biafra--from excitement in the beginning to despair towards the end. Immediately after the war, Rose turned her notes into a narrative that described the ingenious ways Biafrans made do, still hoping for victory while their territory shrank and children starved by the thousand. Now anthropologist S. Elizabeth Bird contextualizes Rose's story, providing background on the progress of the war and international reaction to it. Edited and annotated, Rose's vivid account of life as a Biafran 'Nigerwife' offers a fresh, new look at hope and survival through a brutal war.
