Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -From ugly duckling of agricultural crops to the Cinderella crop, the significance of oilseed brassicas in international trade has increased tremendously with global produc tion having almost trebled in the past three decades. Over 13. 2% of the world's edible oil requirement is now met from this source. The stimulus for this dramatic reversal was provided by the identification of rapeseed genotypes with greatly reduced levels of nutritionally undesirable erucic acid and meal glucosinolates during the early 1960s. Since then, rapeseed breeding has been oriented towards the need to improve oil quality. Though past achievements have been impressive, greater strides are expected in upgrading productivity through the development ofF hybrids and better mobiliza 1 tion of genetic diversity available in wild allies. Recent emphasis on cellular and molec ular biology will help to bypass sexual constraints for genetic enrichment of crop bras sicas, and to reduce the time frame for cultivar development. The present book was conceived to bring together critical and comprehensive reviews on research approaches, achievements and limitations to breeding better brassicas. As the book has a strong practical bias, certain topics like taxonomy, cytogenetics, etc. are dealt with in relatively lesser detail. Thus, 'Brassica crops and wild allies', edited by S. Tsunoda, K. Hinata and C. Gomez-Campa, will serve as an ideal companion book. It is a matter of immense sorrow that the senior editor, Prof. K.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Der vorliegende Band befasst sich mit der politischen und gesellschaftlichen Bedeutung von islamistischen Bewegungen und fragt, wie diese in ihren jeweiligen politischen Kontexten angemessen analysiert werden können. Am Beispiel Kopftuch tragender Aktivistinnen in der Türkei wird theoretisch und empirisch aufgezeigt, wie islamistische Bewegungen mit dem Staat interagieren und welche Wirkungen sie auf Gesellschaft und Politik entfalten. Jenseits üblicher Dichotomien ¿ wie säkulare Modernisierung versus religiöse Rückständigkeit ¿ werden die klassischen Instrumente der Bewegungsforschung erweitert und die besondere Rolle von Religion in den Blick genommen. Organisationsformen, Ziele und Artikulationsweisen der Bewegung werden empirisch nachgezeichnet. Indem die Autorin die vielfältigen und heterogenen Formen der kulturellen Bearbeitung des Islams in den Blick nimmt, werden die politischen Kämpfe um deren hegemoniale Deutungsweise ermittelt.¿Springer-Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 212 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This is the final volume of Heisenberg's Collected Works. Itcontains his papers on a (nonlinear) unified theory of elementary particles, as well as his contribution to superconductivity and multiparticle production. Especially interesting is the first group of papers, which is split intotwo sections dealing with, firstly, the formulation of the famous nonlinear spinor equation and, secondly,its applications. Among others the reader willfind a thorough discussion of Heisenberg's collaboration with W. Pauli on these matters. Illuminating annotations to the various sections in this volume have been provided by H. Koppe, R. Hagedorn and the editors.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 716 pp. Deutsch.
