Springer Die iliakale Endofibrose bei Radrennfahrern und Triathleten: Eine Ursache belastungsabhängiger Oberschenkelschmerzen bei Ausdauersportlern
Das Buch gibt eine kompakte Übersicht über Ätiologie, Klinik, Diagnostik und Therapie der iliakalen Endofibrose, einer Sonderform der peripheren arteriellen Verschlusskrankheit. Es wendet sich an Ärzte und Physiotherapeuten, die Ausdauersportler betreuen, aber auch an betroffene Athleten selbst. Das Krankheitsbild wurde 1985 erstmals bei einem Radrennfahrer beschrieben. Die Symptome sind meist belastungsabhängige Oberschenkelschmerzen, die die Karriere der oft ambitionierten Athleten gefährden. Da der Untersuchungsbefund unter Ruhebedingungen regelhaft unauffällig ist, kann es zu jahrelanger Verzögerung der Diagnosestellung kommen.

Springer Gewährleistungsstaatlichkeit zwischen Wächterfunktion und Innovationsinkubator: Interdisziplinäre Reflexionen eines Kulturwandels des Beratungsansatzes der Beratungs-und Prüfbehörden nach dem Landesgesetz über Wohnformen und Teilhabe des La
Auf der Basis einer qualitativen Evaluation der Arbeitskultur und ihrer Philosophie der Beratungs- und Prüfbehörden im Rahmen des Verordnungswesens des Wohn- und Teilhabegesetzes des Landes Rheinland-Pfalz wird eine Meta-Reflexion vorgelegt. Diese Reflexion wird in Bezug auf die Methodologie narrativer Sozialforschung, in Bezug auf die normativ-rechtlichen Bezugssysteme der Werte-orientierten Skalierung der empirischen Befunde sowie in Bezug auf die Beurteilung des Gestaltwandels des Gewährleistungsstaates vorgenommen. Der Gewährleistungsstaat wird in seinem Wandel von der aufsichtsrechtlichen Wächterfunktion zur markt- und unternehmenskritischen Befähigungspolitik auf der Grundlage dialogischer Formen der Innovationsentwicklung in stationären Wohneinrichtungen der Langzeitpflege im Alter und für Menschen mit Behinderungen diskutiert. Die inter-disziplinäre Arbeit ist ein Beitrag zur Sozialstaats- und Sozialpolitik- sowie zur Daseinsvorsorgeforschung im Kontext der Probleme der regulierten Marktwirtschaft im Lichte der zunehmenden Kapitalisierung. Sie legt auch Wert auf einige psychoanalytische Betrachtungen dieser sozialen Entwicklungslernprozesse.

Springer Fahrplan für den Flow: Kreative Blockaden analysieren und mit Coaching auflösen
Erfreuliche Flow- und Glücksgefühle entstehen, wenn sich der Mensch ungebremst seinen Zielen widmen kann. Häufig jedoch kommen Störfaktoren bei der Umsetzung seiner Ideen dazwischen - er fühlt sich blockiert. Das vorliegende Werk arbeitet mittels eines anschaulichen Fahrplans heraus, an welchen Stellen des psychischen Systems genau Blockaden der Kreativität entstehen, wie sie bezeichnet werden und wie sie durch passende Gegenmaßnahmen wie Anregungen zur Selbstreflexion, Übungen und Coaching-Tools entfernt werden können, damit die kreative Energie wieder fließt.

Springer Die mediale Inszenierung von Amok und Terrorismus: Zur medienpsychologischen Wirkung des Journalismus bei exzessiver Gewalt
Schulamokläufer und Terroristen sichern sich durch das kalkulierte Ausüben von Gewalt einen Platz in den Schlagzeilen der Weltpresse. Sie folgen damit einer bewährten Kommunikationsstrategie, die ebenso menschenverachtend wie durchschaubar ist. Dieses Kalkül der Täter geht insbesondere dann auf, wenn Medien die destruktiven Botschaften der Täter ungefiltert weitertragen. Sie verbreiten auf diese Weise Angst in der Gesellschaft, belasten die Opfer und liefern im schlimmsten Fall eine Inspiration für Nachahmer. Mit Hilfe von Erkenntnissen aus Psychologie, Kommunikationswissenschaft und Kriminologie zeigen die Autoren Möglichkeiten auf, schonend über derartige Taten zu kommunizieren. Ihre pragmatischen Leitlinien für einen konstruktiven medialen Umgang mit Gewalt erlauben es, die Gefahr von Nachahmungstaten zu verringern und das Leid der Opfer zu lindern.

Springer The Dynamic Sun: Proceedings of the Summerschool and Workshop held at the Solar Observatory, Kanzelhöhe, Kärnten, Austria, August 30-September 10, 1999
Our Sun is the nearest star and thus an ideal laboratory to study dynamic processes which are related to solar terrestrial physics. The topics addressed in this book cover solar MHD and generation of acoustic waves, as well as physical parameters that are suited to describing solar activity and could serve as proxies for space weather forecasting. The influence of solar activity (radiation and solar wind) on telecommunication systems, satellite missions etc. is also discussed. In short, contribution reports are given on various topics in solar physics. The book covers solar physics from the photosphere to space weather influences. The intended level of readership is aimed at students working in this or related fields, professionals, and astronomers who wish to acquire some basic knowledge in the field of solar terrestrial relations, which is provided in the review articles.

Springer System of Negotiations: Game Theory and Behavioral Economics in Procurement – the Guide for Professionals
This book presents criteria and recommendations for successful negotiations. The System of Negotiations, which was developed on a scientific basis for this purpose, clearly illustrates the most important steps, tools and applications. By using game theory and behavioral economics, the success of negotiations in purchasing can be systematically maximized. At the same time, transparency and fairness offer a high level of acceptance among negotiating partners. To this end, numerous practical examples are used to show how contracts can be awarded in the event of competition between suppliers, and how various auction formats and differentiated communication can be used to achieve optimal savings potential. Also for situations where the supplier is a monopolist, ways are described to avoid being at the mercy of pricing power.

How does chance enter our world? And why is so much not predictable?In an understandable, exciting and amusing narrative, the author takes us into the world of chemistry, quantum physics and biology. Touching on astronomy and philosophy, we witness a rewarding journey of discovery. In the process, he develops a completely new view of chance based on the laws of nature. Here, the omnipresent non-equilibrium plays an extremely decisive role, because it generates the complex structures in our world. Finally, on this basis, he presents an equally simple and captivating hypothesis on the nature of time.This non-fiction book provides a deep insight into the fascination of research, the agonizing search for fundamental understanding, and the struggle for scientific knowledge.
