Die Akte/n (AdminiStudies. Formen und Medien der Verwaltung #4)
Par Felix Lindner, Julia Steinmetz. 2025
Was in der Welt gelten oder als Tatbestand verbürgt sein soll, muss aktenkundig sein, denn die Behörden der ›verwalteten Welt‹…
entscheiden über unsere Wirklichkeit, Identität und Handlungsmacht im ›Medium‹ der Akten. Diese stiften also zuletzt Zusammenhänge zwischen Amt und Welt, zunächst aber zwischen unterschiedlichsten Schriftstücken – egal, ob in Gestalt von Kästchen und Kisten, von Bündeln, Kladden oder Ordnern, zunehmend in Form von verschalteten Datensätzen und elektronischen Verweissystemen. Akten lassen sich deshalb als Medien verstehen, die unterschiedliche Formen der Inskription miteinander verbinden. Acta sind Arbeitsmittel, Handlungen und zugleich Medien der (Auto-)Protokollierung eines administrativen Vorgangs, in welcher Doppelfunktion sie die Rechenschaftspflicht der Verwaltungen ebenso zu erfüllen helfen, wie sie eine historiographische Dokumentation ihres Tuns ermöglichen. Als Aufschreibesystem mit spezifischem Prozesscharakter, das unablässige Rekursion mit weitreichenden Handlungsketten verbindet, waren Akten seit ihrem Aufkommen in der Frühneuzeit eine medientechnische Innovation – und sind es noch heute, im Zeitalter ihrer ›Digitalisierung‹. Dabei sind diese keineswegs nur Sache der Verwaltung: Die Geschichten der Akte/n in diesem (Open Access-)Band der AdminiStudies handeln auch von einer Mediengeschichte der Migration der ›Aktenmäßigkeit‹ in pädagogische oder medizinische, politische, militärische oder wirtschaftliche Organisationen sowie technische Bereiche und künstlerisch-literarische Domänen.
What Radiology Residents Need to Know: Breast Imaging (What Radiology Residents Need to Know)
Par Priscilla J. Slanetz, Vandana Dialani. 2025
This book is an introduction to breast imaging, specifically designed for the needs of first through third year residents. While…
rotating through breast imaging, radiology residents are asked to learn significant amounts of information at a fast and unrelenting pace. However, most current books are densely written and contain far more material than residents need to know. Moreover, the number, variety and quality of images is often limited. What Radiology Residents Need to Know: Breast Imaging answers these needs by presenting the important information in bullet fashion, divided into convenient sub-units, such as “clinical information,” “imaging findings” and “management.” This book covers such topics as breast cancer, benign breast disease, image-guided interventions, pregnant and lactating patients, transgender patients, and male breast disease. In addition, it contains tips on approaching and interpreting mammography, breast ultrasound, and breast MRI studies based on decades of practical experience and teaching residents at the work station as well as a list of common differentials. With liberal use of illustrations in the text and an online bank of many more high-quality images, this book gives readers a comprehensive library of breast imaging scans and serves as an ideal guide for radiology residents.
This book explores how a place becomes a place in the Korean context, with a particular focus on power, knowledge,…
and strategy. Discussion of government-involved placemaking initiatives, including place-marketing, urban regeneration, new city development, and land reclamation, demonstrate how actors from the public, private, and voluntary sectors contribute to governance structures. The research examines how key actors from national and local governments, civic organisations, ordinary citizens, and businesses communicate and interact with actors in other sectors within the realm of placemaking governance, and will interest scholars of Asian urbanism, architects, urban politics, geography, and town planners.Healthcare and Rehabilitation Innovation: Personalized Decision Support by Artificial Intelligence for Cardiovascular Diseases: Responsible Innovation.- Multi-agent Assessment Generation System for…

The book presents the author's development of two first-principles methods to calculate dielectric properties of materials based on anharmonic phonon…
and machine learning, and demonstrates an in-depth analysis of anharmonic crystals and molecular liquids. The anharmonic phonon method, combined with Born effective charges, is useful to study dielectric properties of crystals. The recently developed self-consistent phonon theory (SCPH) enables accurate simulations in strongly anharmonic materials. The author reveals that the combination of SCPH with the four-phonon scattering term accurately reproduces experimental spectra, and discusses how anharmonic phonon self-energies affect the dielectric properties. The second method is molecular dynamics with Wannier centers—the mass centers of Wannier functions. The author constructs a machine learning model that learns Wannier centers for each chemical bond from atomic coordinates to accurately predict the dipole moments. The developed method is, in principle, applicable to molecules of arbitrary size. Its effectiveness is demonstrated and the dielectric properties of several alcohols, including dipole moments, dielectric constants, and absorption spectra, are analyzed. This book benefits students and researchers interested in anharmonic phonons, machine learning, and dielectric properties.
Psychologie als Wissenschaft: Grundlagen, Probleme und Herausforderungen
Par Peter Michael Bak. 2025
Dieses Buch widmet sich der Psychologie als Wissenschaft. Die Psychologie hat sich zwar längst als Wissenschaft etabliert, dennoch sind noch…
viele grundlegende Fragen in Bezug auf den Untersuchungsgegenstand und die wissenschaftliche Herangehensweise offen. Es geht um Fragen wie: Kann man die Psychologie wie eine Naturwissenschaft betreiben oder entzieht sich menschliches Verhalten und Erleben einer solchen Herangehensweise? Wie versucht die Psychologie ihre wissenschaftlichen Ziele zu erreichen? Was verstehen wir eigentlich unter Beschreiben, Erklären oder Vorhersagen in der Psychologie? Und was können wir unter psychologischen Theorien, Hypothesen und Prüfungen genau verstehen? Welche aktuellen Probleme behindern den wissenschaftlichen Fortschritt und was kann man dagegen unternehmen? Ohne auf solche Fragen eine Antwort geben zu können, kann man Psychologie als Wissenschaft nicht wirklich betreiben. Aber auch die psychologische Anwendungspraxis muss darauf Antworten finden, wenn es beispielsweise darum geht, Interventionen zu rechtfertigen und zu begründen. Das Buch gibt zu diesen Fragen einen Überblick, benennt Probleme und Schwierigkeiten der Wissenschaft Psychologie und gibt Anregungen, wie man die Psychologie wissenschaftlich weiterentwickeln kann.

The Family Strategy: How Families Secure Their Business Across Generations
Par Kirsten Baus. 2025
Successful entrepreneurial families are stable because they have structures and rules. These form the basis for constructive interaction between the…
family, shareholders, and the business. Without them, the ability to act is impaired—both in day-to-day operations and strategic decisions, due to conflicts and lack of foresight. Kirsten Baus, an expert in family governance and succession planning, offers the solution with the family strategy. Based on a shared understanding of values, goals, and roles, she develops a stabilizing set of structures and rules with entrepreneurial families. These provide relief, create security and predictability, and reduce conflicts. Most importantly, they make an entrepreneurial family capable of strategy—able to plan ahead and position themselves correctly.
In diesem Open-Access-Buch wird untersucht, welche Muster bzw. Veränderungen der selbstinitiierten Teilnahme an beruflicher Weiterbildung sich im Trend identifizieren lassen.…
Bisherige Analysen, die die Teilnahme Beschäftigter an beruflicher Weiterbildung differenziert nach Ost- und Westdeutschland im Trend betrachtet haben, verweisen auf regionalspezifische Muster. Diese Unterschiede werden punktuell vor dem Hintergrund ost-west-spezifischer Arbeitsmarktkontexte verortet, oft jedoch findet keine Kontextualisierung statt. Inwieweit ost-west-spezifische Entwicklungen der Berufs- und Arbeitsmarktstrukturen Einfluss auf motivationale Aspekte der Teilnahmeentscheidung Beschäftigter nehmen, stand bisher nicht im Fokus. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht daher die Teilnahmeselektivität Beschäftigter an selbstinitiierter beruflicher Weiterbildung vor dem Hintergrund ost-west-spezifischer Entwicklungen der Berufs- und Arbeitsmarktstrukturen. Angesichts sich verändernder Kontexte lassen sich veränderte Muster der Teilnahme im Zeitverlauf beobachten. Die Befunde verweisen zudem auf regionale Strukturdifferenzen, die Einfluss auf die selbstinitiierte Teilnahme an beruflicher Weiterbildung nehmen. Insgesamt zeigt sich eine für ostdeutsche Beschäftigte verringerte Teilnahmequote im Vergleich zu westdeutschen Beschäftigten.
