Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Although a variety of variables have been investigated in their ability to strengthen or weaken the level of consumer scepticism towards cause-related marketing, one dimension is still absent. The present study suggests a psychological approach aiming to explain different levels of consumer scepticism on the basis of psychological insights. In the case of this study it entails the understanding of consumer¿s preference for taking in information. If a cause-related marketing ad is tailored to a consumer¿s preference, the level of cause-related marketing scepticism might be lower. This study clearly explains why further and more extended research with this psychological tool could be of additional value. The tool is able to provide advertisers with useful information about their target audience, which can increase the effectiveness of their advertising and lead to a better understanding of cause-related marketing on the consumer¿s side.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The environmental problems, stemming from the economic development, also due to mismanagement, incompleteness, and structural defects in the market system. The study identifies the economic, socio-economic, and political parameters that affect certain environmental indices. In the first part of the work, we present a literature review connecting the environmental policy with income, corruption, and shadow economy. Then, using the fixed and the random effects panel data techniques; we examine which parameters affect environmental policy performance, energy generated from renewable resources, and greenhouse gas emissions. The panel encompasses annual data from 24 out of 27 European Union countries, for the period 2000-2007. We find that corruption and shadow economy have negative effect on the environmental indices, while they reinforce each other. However, income has positive effect on indices except from emissions. The findings an contribute to clarify institutional issues of he environmental policy and should be useful for politicians an anyone else who consider environmental policy performance issues.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Cottage cheese is an unripened type of cheese, slightly acid, made from skimmed milk. In order to optimize the technology for obtaining this type of cheese, we analyze the activity of lactic cultures in time, taking into consideration the pH for different samples of raw milk. The chemical composition of the milk enriched with solid substance, and the type of culture used had a great influence in the process of obtaining the Cottage cheese. Parameters that were influenced were especially the fermentation period, the pH at curd cutting and further processing. From the obtained results, the use of starter frozen cultures was the most effective option regardless of milk composition. In the full and effective optimization of technological process for obtaining Cottage cheeses, it is recommended the use of enriched milk with solid substance and inoculated with frozen starter culture.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This is a book about hope and personality, lost hope and lost personality, about the depthless consumerism. Is it possible to preserve your soul in a society which is built on throwaway cans, throwaway appliances, throwaway cars and even throwaway people That is the question the three writers, who have been selected as the focus of this research, are desperately trying to answer. Bret Easton Ellis, Douglas Coupland and Chuck Palahniuk are the symbols of their age, they are the writers who represent the second lost generation, they represent its hopelessness. Their selected works are the prime examples of the decades they were written in. And with chapters titled ¿People are afraid to merge, Choosing your vanishing point, You can either have a house or a life¿ I¿m having a life, Group Identity ¿ You are not your ego, R.O.E. and Bumper-sticker culture¿ this book does not only compare, examine and draw conclusions of the novels, but identifies with them, also becoming the representation of the second lost generation itself.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Ernest Bloch's Jewish heritage was a great source of inspiration for his compositions throughout his lifetime, however, after Bloch came to the United Sates in 1916, his musical style gradually began to change. During the 1920s his role in the classical music field motivated him to accept and apply modern techniques and ambiguous tonalities to his abstractly titled compositions. Also, as a professor and a leader in various music schools, he composed the works to be accessible to more people. This book describes the general stylistic traits of Bloch in the 1910s and 1920s and discusses, through an analysis of melodic and rhythmic motives and an outline of his application of modern techniques, how his style changed most in his compositions.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Although bilingualism in the southwestern United States has been widely studied, the current corpus lacks material pertaining to the Phoenix Metropolitan area. Code-switching is a bilingual phenomenon characterized by the simultaneous use of two languages in one discourse. Studies have shown that language choice is governed by both linguistic and social factors. Using multi-variate analysis, the study examined the relationship of both linguistic and social factors to the code-switching behaviors of two communities in the southwestern United States; Antonito, Colorado and the Phoenix Metropolitan Area in Arizona.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

It is a vivid introspection of the unfair benefits of such migration for the two continents. Alot has been made of the huge profits that Africans derive from migrating to Europe but the question of at what cost seem to evade every ambit of such discussions.It is therefore hoped that readers will find this work more apt to the topic under investigation.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Nowadays, we are living in a time of great and rapid change driven by globalization and we are working in the information age. Such constant changes can affect employee attitudes in organizations positively or negatively mainly based on the style of management practices. The employees¿ attitudes demonstrate how the employees¿ behavior is affecting the work in an organization. Almost all employees of ERCA are developing bad/indifferent attitude because of dominating autocratic style of managers of the Authority. If the Authority can not change such management style, it is the belief of most employees that it would not achieve its objectives. Workers are fired without tangible evidence and some of them are even not aware of what, when, and where they committed a mistake if any. The fired workers have no right to accuse the Authority in front of the court. This is because ERCA managers are fully authorized to fire the employee(s) they suspect for unethical act according to ERCA Employees Regulation 2000 E.C Art. 37. ¿Employee¿means permanent worker in the Authority, but excludes the executive director, deputy head directors, and prosecuting attorneys according to the Regulation.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Glial cells have been the focus of scientific attention in the past 20 years. Their role as mere supportive elements of the central nervous system has definitely been abandoned, whereas their part as active mediators and modulators crucially involved in development and sustainment of neuropathic pain is currently well established. More recently, a link between glial activation and opioid actions is being progressively strengthened and there is growing awareness about gliäs intervention on the installation of many adverse effects of opioids. There is hope that increasing knowledge of the terms of this interaction may allow development of new ¿ or new uses for known ¿ drugs, allowing enhancement of opioid analgesia and simultaneous inhibition of glial-mediated effects. This review aims at condensing some of the most relevant data brought to light in these subjects, such as neuronal abnormal communication in abnormal pain states, microglial and astrocytic parts in intensification of painful stimuli transmission and, finaly, the relations between glia and opioid effects.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This book focuses on successfully rehabilitated historic buildings in Columbia, South Carolina. These projects were undertaken between 1976 and 2013 by private developers in conjunction with public support. The examples of adaptive use that are provided vary due to their unique locations as well as conditions in the years that they occurred. Public support included financial incentives and guidelines offered by federal, state, regional, and local governments and professional guidance provided by the staff of government agencies and non-profit organizations. These collaborative projects were considered successes by both the public and their private developers, though they often came about after some compromise. The cases presented are representative of similar projects completed in cities throughout the United States. These examples demonstrate how public-private collaborations can be mutually beneficial for communities and developers across the nation.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -In this book, we consider Weyl spaces of dimension and pay attention to some properties that curvatures satisfy. By importing some additional structures, such as almost complex, almost Kaehlerian and almost -structures we broaden geometrical concepts of the spaces and examine the symmetry properties of these quantities. Similar to the Riemannian case the prolonged covariant derivative is defined, so that the prolonged covariantly constant quantities will be mentioned. As a special case, Einstein-Weyl space which has a certain type of Ricci curvature is examined. By starting the study of a prolongedly covariance concept, we are able to obtain generalized Einstein equation in Weyl spaces. That is, an Einstein -Weyl tensor is defined which is constant under prolonged covariant differentiation. In this book, we present the concepts and calculations so that the readers can follow them quite easily.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a widespread technique used in industry for high-precision machining of all types of electrical conductive materials. Though it is generally a material removal process, migration of tool material onto the workpiece surface had been observed during machining by EDM and hence this phenomenon has been exploited by many researchers for surface modification. Further, deliberate material transfer has been carried out under specific conditions by using selected tool material onto the machined surface for obtaining specific functional characteristics. In this aspect, Powder Metallurgical (P/M) electrode plays a significant role. In this present work, an attempt for surface modification of graphite using P/M tool electrode of W/Cu, Cr/Cu, Ni/Cu, Si/Cu and Si/Graphite/Cu has been made to obtain a uniformly deposited layer over the graphite base material. Parametric analysis of the performance measures viz. Material Transfer Rate (MTR), Tool Wear Rate (TWR) and surface roughness (Ra) has been done by varying the input parameters. The investigated input process parameters are composition, pulsed on-time/off time and peak current.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The TFT-LCD has become a necessity of modern life. It is widely used as a display in a wide range of electronic devices, including personal computers (PCs), laptops, mobile phones, and televisions (TVs). Most LCD panels are produced in East Asia. Japanese firms were the first to commercialize liquid crystals in displays, but the market dominance by Japan was short-lived. Korea and Taiwan entered the market in the early 2000s and changed the dynamics of the LCD industry. In the mid-2000s, China also joined the tripartite battle for the huge consumer market. This book describes how the LCD market formed in East Asia and how the players competed and sometimes collaborated with each other, intentionally and unintentionally, in the market. This book discusses the many technological innovations that have occurred in this field and helps to disseminate this information to a broad readership. It may also provide perspective to companies or nations intending to enter, or entering, emerging high-tech industries and aiming to maintain their competitiveness, especially in industries with cyclical consumer demand such as the LCD and semi-conductor ones.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 112 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Compact and affordable small telescopes have boosted the enthusiasm of amateur astronomers to the level of professionalism. The nature of Variable Stars can be well understood through Photometry and Spectroscopy using compact back end instruments. Small telescope observations are complementary to the astronomers using large telescopes for their research. Such observations made from locations with low level atmospheric and light pollution are of great value from astronomical point of view. With Variable Stars as observing targets in general, photoelectric photometry of about a dozen RS CVn stars was undertaken by JES Observatory with a small optical telescope of 30 cm diameter, as a part of doctoral work submitted to Dr.B.A.M. University, Aurangabad. The JESO has also participated in the International Campaign of an eclipsing binary system, Epsilon Aurigae, during 2009-11. It has conducted several Outreach Activities and organized workshops through interaction with IUCAA, Pune. The book covers basic concepts of Photoelectric Photometry and should be useful to small telescope users in universities and colleges as well as amateur astronomers.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Security about one's economic future is something that is valued by risk-averse individuals and its absence may decrease their economic well-being. Therefore, rich societies have social protection mechanisms in place to guard people against potential economic hazards. However, such mechanisms may be absent in poor countries where people are not only poorer but exposed to significant economic risks. Under this context, this work inquires if there is a comparable way to measure an Index of Economic Security for a sample of three South Asian and seven OECD countries. We provide a theoretical framework to articulate why economic security is important in the measurement of well-being. We also discuss the human rights perspective on economic insecurity and its implications for measurement of economic security. After constructing a basic index, we conduct sensitivity analysis to determine how much impact methodological choices have on country performance.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Carbon dioxide (CO2 or R744), a natural refrigerant was proposed in the 1990s to be used as an alternative to hazardous gases which deplete the earth¿s ozone layer. During the last decades, several significant additional advantages and disadvantages were discovered for the refrigeration machines that use CO2. These relate the capital investment cost of the components, operation conditions and energy supply. Almost in all publications only an energy analysis has been applied to evaluate the CO2-based refrigeration machines. Despite actual discussions about the relative high capital investment cost for the CO2 using refrigeration machines and heat pumps, there are not so many research publications where an economic analysis has been used in the evaluation. The goals of the present book are: a) To demonstrate the different applications of CO2-based refrigeration machines for countries with hot climate. b) To apply exergy analysis and exergoeconomic analysis (combination of exergy analysis and economic analysis) to the CO2 refrigeration machines.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -An innovative system is created for annotating photos used for model construction while observing outcrops in the field or virtual 3-D models with a computer using an applet on a tablet (herein iPad). Geologic tracings can be converted into 3-D points (from the pixels) with a Matlab program so that geologic information such as strike/dip can then be determined and quantitatively analyzed. Three sets of road-cut outcrops including the Cambro-Ordovician carbonates of the Arbuckle anticline, Oklahoma, the Paleozoic fluvial deltaic sedimentary rocks of the Breathitt Group, Pikeville, Kentucky, and the Cretaceous Eagle Ford Formation, Del Rio, Texas, have been captured, modeled and preliminarily analyzed. A scanner with coaxial camera automatically and simultaneously determines the transformation coefficients in the field, which improves photorealistic surface mapping and modeling and results in a faster procedure generating higher resolution and more accurate models. A 3-D analysis approach using the multipatch format of 3-D models and ArcScene-based modules was designed for geological analyses. Vegetation filter programs are shown to diminish the errors in modeling.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.
