Springer Berufsfindungsprozesse von Jugendlichen: Eine qualitativ-rekonstruktive Studie
Im Mittelpunkt des in diesem Band dargestellten Forschungsvorhabens steht die leitende Fragestellung, welche Orientierungsmuster den Berufsfindungsprozessen von angehenden Lehrlingen mit geschlechts(un)typischen Berufswünschen zugrunde liegen. Unter Rückgriff auf ein qualitativ-rekonstruktives Forschungsdesign werden vier Typen von Berufsfindungsprozessen abgeleitet, welche sich hinsichtlich der Berufswerte, des Ausmaßes an Selbst- und Fremdbestimmung sowie der handlungsleitenden Intention der Jugendlichen unterscheiden. Lediglich Jugendliche vom Typ I (u.a. durch ein hohes Maß an Selbstbestimmung charakterisiert) waren in der Lage, einen geschlechtsuntypischen Berufswunsch zu verwirklichen.

Springer Demenzsensible psychosoziale Intervention: Interviewstudie mit Menschen mit demenziellen Beeinträchtigungen
Die Studie beschäftigt sich mit der subjektiven Perspektive und den sozialen Bedingungen von Menschen mit demenziellen Beeinträchtigungen (MmD). Die Erhebung und Auswertung der Daten erfolgt nach den Grundsätzen der qualitativen Sozialforschung mit der Grounded-Theory-Methodologie (GTM) in einer partizipativen Forschungsstrategie. Aus den Ergebnissen generiert der Autor evidenzbasierte, bedarfsgerechte psychosoziale Interventionsformen. Für die praktische Anwendung empfiehlt sich die „Fähigkeit zur Selbsterhaltung“ als Ressource zu fördern, indem Defizitkonfrontationen vermieden und die Selbstorganisation der Betroffenen unterstützt werden.

Springer Der Zahlen gigantische Schatten: Mathematik im Zeichen der Zeit
In einem informativen und anregenden Streifzug von Pythagoras über Bach zu Bohr zeigt der Autor den Einfluss der Zahlen in der Welt des Wissens und unserer Kultur. In einer lebendigen und persönlich gefärbten Sprache, unterstützt durch eine Fülle bestechend schöner Abbildungen, wird der weit gespannte Themenbereich einem breiten Leserkreis verständlich dargestellt. Dass nach einem Jahr nach Erscheinen bereits die dritte Auflage erfolgte, belegt die These, dass viele Menschen Mathematik vor allem als wesentlichen Bestandteil unserer Kultur empfinden und darüber mehr erfahren wollen. In der dritten Auflage wurden einige Fußnoten im Anmerkungsteil ergänzt.

Springer Retargetable Compilers for Embedded Core Processors: Methods and Experiences in Industrial Applications
Embedded core processors are becoming a vital part of today's system-on-a-chip in the growing areas of telecommunications, multimedia and consumer electronics. This is mainly in response to a need to track evolving standards with the flexibility of embedded software. Consequently, maintaining the high product performance and low product cost requires a careful design of the processor tuned to the application domain. With the increased presence of instruction-set processors, retargetable software compilation techniques are critical, not only for improving engineering productivity, but to allow designers to explore the architectural possibilities for the application domain. Retargetable Compilers for Embedded Core Processors, with a Foreword written by Ahmed Jerraya and Pierre Paulin, overviews the techniques of modern retargetable compilers and shows the application of practical techniques to embedded instruction-set processors. The methods are highlighted with examples from industry processors used in products for multimedia, telecommunications, and consumer electronics. An emphasis is given to the methodology and experience gained in applying two different retargetable compiler approaches in industrial settings. The book also discusses many pragmatic areas such as language support, source code abstraction levels, validation strategies, and source-level debugging. In addition, new compiler techniques are described which support address generation for DSP architecture trends. The contribution is an address calculation transformation based on an architectural model. Retargetable Compilers for Embedded Core Processors will be of interest to embedded system designers and programmers, the developers of electronic design automation (EDA) tools for embedded systems, and researchers in hardware/software co-design.

Springer Laboratory Techniques in Thrombosis — a Manual
The first edition of this manual appeared in 1992 and was entitled ECAT Assay Procedures. It was the result of a unique cooperation between experts brought together by the European Concerted Action on Thrombosis and Disabilities (ECAT). The Concerted Action was at that time under the auspices of the Commission of the European Union. The second edition, like the first edition, deals with diagnostic tests within the field of thrombosis. However, the second edition has a broader scope because it is no longer limited by the frontiers of ECAT. Experts allover the world, in and outside ECAT, have contributed to this edition. The editors are very grateful for their contributions. The need for a new edition is obvious. Since 1992 new assays have been introduced for research, diagnosis, and therapy of thrombosis; for other assays improvements have been suggested, while a few others became redundant. The editors waived the radioimmunoassays of ~-thrombog1obulin and platelet factor 4 due to the fact that the kits required for these assays are rarely, or no longer, available. Also the PAI-1 activity assay was waived as it is liable to many inconsistencies and to large variations. A list of names and addresses of manufacturers marketing the kits and reagents has been compiled, together with a list of the recommended nomenclature of quantities in thrombosis and haemostasis, in order to facilitate the use of the updated version. These lists have been carefully compiled by Johannes J. Sidelmann, PhD, Department of Clinical Biochemistry in Esbjerg, Denmark.

Springer Collected Papers IV
Following the thematic divisions of the first three volumes of Alfred Schutz's Collected Papers into The Problem of Social Reality, Studies in Social Theory and Phenomenological Philosophy, this fourth volume contains drafts of unfinished writings, drafts of published writings, translations of essays previously published in German, and some largely unpublished correspondence. The drafts of published writings contain important material omitted from the published versions, and the unfinished writings offer important insights into Schutz's otherwise unpublished ideas about economic and political theory as well as the theory of law and the state. In addition, a large group contains Schutz's reflections on problems in phenomenological philosophy, including music, which both supplement and add new dimensions to his published thought. All together, the writings in this volume cover Schutz's last 15 years in Europe as well as manuscripts written after his arrival in the USA in 1939. Audience: Students and scholars of phenomenology, social theory and the human sciences in general.

Springer Statistical Physics for Biological Matter
This book aims to cover a broad range of topics in statistical physics, including statistical mechanics (equilibrium and non-equilibrium), soft matter and fluid physics, for applications to biological phenomena at both cellular and macromolecular levels. It is intended to be a graduate level textbook, but can also be addressed to the interested senior level undergraduate. The book is written also for those involved in research on biological systems or soft matter based on physics, particularly on statistical physics.Typical statistical physics courses cover ideal gases (classical and quantum) and interacting units of simple structures. In contrast, even simple biological fluids are solutions of macromolecules, the structures of which are very complex. The goal of this book to fill this wide gap by providing appropriate content as well as by explaining the theoretical method that typifies good modeling, namely, the method of coarse-grained descriptions that extract the most salient features emerging at mesoscopic scales. The major topics covered in this book include thermodynamics, equilibrium statistical mechanics, soft matter physics of polymers and membranes, non-equilibrium statistical physics covering stochastic processes, transport phenomena and hydrodynamics. Generic methods and theories are described with detailed derivations, followed by applications and examples in biology. The book aims to help the readers build, systematically and coherently through basic principles, their own understanding of nonspecific concepts and theoretical methods, which they may be able to apply to a broader class of biological problems.
