Labour law has always been preoccupied with boundaries.One can either be an ’employee’ or not, an ’employer’ or not, and the answer dictates who comes within the scope of labour law, for better or worse. But such divisions have always been difficult, and in recent years their shortcomings have become ever more pronounced. The proliferation…
While other methods of drag reduction are well-known in marine R&D and ship design environments worldwide, compliant coating drag reduction remains less well-known and poorly understood. This important book presents cutting-edge techniques and findings from research sources not generally accessible by Western researchers and engineers, aiding the application and further development of this potentially important…
The survey and the transference are the distinctive and operative acts in the transmission of real property and, where they differ from each other, one must of necessity control the other. This book addresses the aforementioned concepts by external explanations in order to understand the discrepancies between them. It also helps to avoid expensive and…
This book deals with boundary value problems for analytic functions with applications to singular integral equations.New and simpler proofs of certain classical results such as the Plemelj formula, the Privalov theorem and the Poincar�-Bertrand formula are given. Nearly one third of this book contains the author’s original works, most of which have not been published…
Boundary Value Problems on Time Scales, Volume II is devoted to the qualitative theory of boundary value problems on time scales.Summarizing the most recent contributions in this area, it addresses a wide audience of specialists such as mathematicians, physicists, engineers and biologists. It can be used as a textbook at the graduate level and as…
In this volume, we report new results about various boundary value problems for partial differential equations and functional equations, theory and methods of integral equations and integral operators including singular integral equations, applications of boundary value problems and integral equations to mechanics and physics, numerical methods of integral equations and boundary value problems, theory and…
With the consideration of boundedness as a principle of organization rather than a law, its leading role is to apply a chain of command to the self-organization of matter, energy, and information.An exclusive property of this theory is the established way of sustaining the functionality of hierarchy through rules that are organized in a semantic-like…
Bourdieu’s Philosophy and Sociology of Science A Critical Appraisal This book explores Pierre Bourdieu’s philosophy and sociology of science, which, though central to his thought, have been largely neglected in critical examinations of his work. Addressing the resultant confusion that surrounds Bourdieu’s sociologized philosophy of science, it expounds his epistemology and sociology of science, situating…
Presenting a critical and theoretical dimension to retail design, Boutiques and Other Retail Spaces links the ideas behind it to real practice in this innovative and important contribution to architectural/interior theory literature. Retail structure has been subject to a dramatic and ongoing transformation over the past thirty years, materializing in the emergence of large-scale out-of-town…
