Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Hat die Geschichte des Menschen eine Richtung, ein Ziel oder ist sie nur ein ewiges Auf und Ab von Kulturen, Regierungen, Gesellschaftssystemen, Wirtschaftsformen, Meinungen Ist sie also von Gesetzmäßigkeit oder von Zufall geprägt Diese Frage bewegt Philosophen und Historiker seit Jahrtausenden.Bis vor kurzem jedoch beruhten die Antworten auf einer sehr lückenhaften, oft auf die jeweils eigene Weltregion beschränkten Kenntnis des geschichtlichen Verlaufs. Erst in den letzten Jahrzehnten ist es der interdisziplinären empirischen Forschung Archäologie, Anthropologie, Klimatologie, Ökonomie, Biologie u.a. gelungen, ein recht vollständiges Bild der zivilisatorischen Entwicklung in allen Weltregionen zu zeichnen; und dabei zeigen sich prägnante Muster, einheitliche Trends und insbesondere eine phänomenale Entwicklung aller relevanten Indikatoren seit etwa 200 Jahren.Das vorliegende Buch beantwortet die Frage Zufall oder Gesetz auf dieser Grundlage neu. Es greift dabei zum einen zurück auf die wichtigsten Geschichtstheorien der Neuzeit (u.a. Vico, Condorcet, Kant, Hegel, Marx), zum anderen auf in den letzten dreißig Jahren veröffentlichten Werke zur Menschheitsgeschichte (u.a. Jared Diamond, Ian Morris, Yuval Harari). Das Buch kombiniert diese Erkenntnisse und folgert daraus eine Gesetzmäßigkeit der Geschichte, in der Freiheit und Selbstbestimmung des Menschen die zentrale Rolle spielen. Den Abschluss des Buches bildet der Teil Wo stehen wir heute als Menschheit , in dem systematisch die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen für Zukunftsprognosen ausgelotet werden.Das Buch ist mit über 20 Abbildungen und Tabellen anschaulich und klar geschrieben; es legt gleichzeitig aber großen Wert auf präzise Argumentation und eine transparente wissenschaftliche Methodik.Fundiert und nachvollziehbar steht so am Ende die These: allen krisenhaften Entwicklungen der Gegenwart zum Trotz steht der Menschheit eine gute, eine faszinierende Zukunft bevor sehr wahrscheinlich. 368 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book describes the 110 years of the Astrophysical Observatory in Potsdam (AOP) as the cradle of European astrophysics up to its disappearance in the 1980s. The first part consists of reviews on the work of the leading astronomers before the Academy reform, while the following part also contains memories of the author until the end of the Akademie der Wissenschaften and the end of the entire GDR as well as the formation 1991/92 of the Astrophysical Institute Potsdam (AIP) on the grounds of the Sternwarte Babelsberg in the course of the German unification.The history of astrophysics on Potsdam's Telegraphenberg includes triumph and tragedies. It began with Hermann Vogel's discovery of the spectroscopic binary stars, Spörer's discovery of the Maunder Minimum of solar activity and Hartmann's clever argumentation on the existence of interstellar gas. Schwarzschild wrote from the war front to Einstein that gravitational waves should exist and Grotrian revealed the secret of the red corona line; later the dynamo theory of the origin of cosmic magnetic fields will migrate worldwide from here.But the Great Refractor turned out to be too large, the hastily erected Einstein Tower also failed to achieve the desired success, Ludendorff drove its multi-talented master mind Freundlich away, and the tower was even planned to be completely removed. Walter Grotrian was not able to start work with his new coronograph, and all the candidates for his succession later declined. The reorganization of the Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Berlin into a socialistic state combine led to isolation and the suppression of the innovation pressure; dubious figures began to torpedo the research through invisible channels.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Donald Trump transformed the Republican Party and, in the process, reset American politics. He redefined what it means to be a Republican by breaking the party establishment, and turning the GOP into a populist, nationalist, and working-class coalition.In 2016, Trump was an outsider running against the establishment. By 2024, Trump was the Republican Party establishment. In response, the Democratic Party has shifted toward the progressive left and is the party of educated, urban, and professional elites. The Trump Realignmenttraces how this transformation unfolded and what it means for the future of American politics. One thing is clear: American politics is not returning to the pre-Trump era. Trump recognized issues that were being ignored by the Republican and Democratic establishments. He gave voice to grievances over economic and cultural shifts, expressing the public s deep-seated resentment and anger. Trump did not shift public opinion so much as harness attitudes on culture, immigration, and trade that had already drifted out of step with both major parties. The issue cleavages that once divided Democrats from Republicans (an activist versus a restrained federal government) have fundamentally and irrevocably shifted toward questions of immigration and trade. No other book captures how Donald J. Trump engaged in a hostile takeover of the Republican Party, forced the Democrats to respond, and realigned the American party system. Even after Donald Trump exits the politicalarena, his impact on Americanpolitics will continue to be felt. The Trump Realignmentis essential reading for anyone seeking to understand our transformed political landscape.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This open access book is a tribute to the profound contributions of Professor Bumsig Kim in the field of mathematics, particularly in the realm of mirror symmetry. Mirror symmetry is a fascinating duality between complex/algebraic geometry and symplectic geometry, manifesting in various ways. One of the foundational examples of this duality is the comparison of period integrals on a complex manifold with curve counts (enumerative invariants) on its mirror. This vision was ultimately realized through the Quasimap Wall-Crossing Formula, developed by Bumsig Kim and his collaborators.The book delves into the methods for counting curves, including Gromov Witten theory and Fan Jarvis Ruan Witten theory. In his final works, Kim and various groups of collaborators achieved methods for counting curves on gauged linear sigma models, effectively unifying Gromov Witten and Fan Jarvis Ruan Witten theory. This monumental effort involved constructing categorical frameworks and developing a dictionary between categorical and classical homological constructions.As a conference proceedings volume, this book is a collaborative effort by Professor Kim s network of colleagues. It explores the intricate connections between categorical and enumerative aspects of mirror symmetry, showcasing the depth and breadth of Kim's work. Through detailed discussions and presentations, the book highlights the innovative approaches and groundbreaking results that have shaped the field.Readers will find a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in mirror symmetry, enriched by the collaborative spirit and intellectual rigor that characterized Professor Kim's career. This volume not only honors his legacy but also serves as a valuable resource for researchers and students seeking to understand and build upon his pioneering work. Whether you are new to the field or an experienced mathematician, this book offers a wealth of knowledge and insights into the complex and beautiful world of mirror symmetry.
