Dieter Henrich and Contemporary Philosophy

The Return to Subjectivity

By: Dieter Freundlieb

Dieter Henrich is one of the most respected and frequently cited philosophers in Germany today. His extensive and highly innovative studies of German Idealism and his systematic analyses of subjectivity have significantly impacted on advanced German philosophical and theological debates. Dieter Henrich and Contemporary Philosophy presents a comprehensive analysis of Henrich's work on subjectivity, evaluating it in the context of contemporary debates in both continental and analytic traditions. Familiarising the non-German reader with an important development in contemporary German philosophy, this book explains the significance of subjectivity for any philosophy that attempts to offer existential orientation and contrasts competing conceptions in analytic philosophy and in the social philosophy of Juergen Habermas. Presenting Henrich's philosophy of subjectivity as a credible alternative to analytic philosophy of mind and a radical challenge to Heideggerian, Habermasian, neo-pragmatist, and postmodern positions, Freundlieb argues that a philosophy of the kind developed by Henrich can regain the cultural significance philosophical thinking once possessed. Dieter Freundlieb is Senior Lecturer in the School of Humanities, Griffith University, Australia

German Soccer Passing Drills

More than 100 Drills from the Pros

By: Peter Hyballa,Hans-Dieter te Poel

Train like the World Champions! Over the past few years, a new trend has become ever more prominent in the soccer world: passing often, fast, and including all players in the game. Combining this with their own personal style, we have seen teams reach new heights of success from FC Barcelona to Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund and, most recently, the German National Team at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. But what does it take to learn this ‘art’ of passing? What are the methodological and technical requirements for becoming the new Schweinsteiger, Messi, or Neuer? In this book, the only of its kind, two German League certified coaches have created the ultimate guide to passing. Using the “Hyballa-te Poel-Passing-Puzzle,” they present every type of pass there is in modern soccer, with lots of drills for each type. From the goalkeeper to the center forward, everyone can learn passing with these exercises.

Between Kant and Hegel

Lectures on German Idealism

By: Dieter Henrich

Electrifying when first delivered in 1973, legendary in the years since, Dieter Henrich's lectures on German Idealism were the first contact a major German philosopher had made with an American audience since the onset of World War II. They remain one of the most eloquent explanations and interpretations of classical German philosophy and of the way it relates to the concerns of contemporary philosophy. Thanks to the editorial work of David Pacini, the lectures appear here with annotations linking them to editions of the masterworks of German philosophy as they are now available. Henrich describes the movement that led from Kant to Hegel, beginning with an interpretation of the structure and tensions of Kant's system. He locates the Kantian movement and revival of Spinoza, as sketched by F. H. Jacobi, in the intellectual conditions of the time and in the philosophical motivations of modern thought. Providing extensive analysis of the various versions of Fichte's Science of Knowledge, Henrich brings into view a constellation of problems that illuminate the accomplishments of the founders of Romanticism, Novalis and Friedrich Schlegel, and of the poet Hölderlin's original philosophy. He concludes with an interpretation of the basic design of Hegel's system.

Rainwater Harvesting for Agriculture in the Dry Areas

By: Theib Y. Oweis,Dieter Prinz,Ahmed Y. Hachum

Dry areas suffer not only from limited rainfall but also ‘natural leakage’—90% of rainwater is lost directly or indirectly, and is unavailable for agriculture or domestic use. Water harvesting is a low-cost, easy-to-use, environmentally-friendly way to recover a large part of this lost water. How does water harvesting work? Which sites or areas are best suited and how can these areas be identified? How to design, build and maintain a water harvesting system tailored to local needs? How can water harvesting contribute to combating land degradation, enhancing food security and adapting to climate change? This book provides the answers. The book is based on many years of research, training and development by three of the world’s leading experts in water management and agriculture. It is authoritative, comprehensive, and easy to read, containing practical examples, many illustrations and little jargon. This volume will be of great interest to researchers, development workers, farmers, policymakers, students of the natural sciences—in fact, anyone interested in efficient, sustainable management of water resources and agriculture.

The Determination of Corporate Taxable Income in the EU Member States

By: Dieter Endres,PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

This book discusses whether elements of the international financial reporting standards (IFRS) meet the requirements of potential common European tax accounting rules. The analysis is based on general principles of taxation and on a comprehensive comparative survey of selected IFRS and tax accounting rules for all 25 EU member states (conducted by the universities of Goettingen, Mannheim, and Erlangen-Nuremberg with the support of PricewaterhouseCoopers). It concludes that, in principle, there is no irresolvable conflict between IFRS and the current tax accounting rules in the member states. After an introduction the book considers the general principles of taxation, followed by a comparative survey of IFRS and tax accounting rules in the EU member states, including taxation of corporations, determination of income, recognition, initial measurement, subsequent measurement, and special areas: pensions, leasing, treatment of domestic and foreign losses, and group taxation. Then follows an analysis of common and fundamental accounting principles, including conceptual accounting principles, accrual principles, treatment of losses, and definition of a group and consolidation. The appendices show how each country computes taxable income and grants tax incentives.

Workmanship

Working philosophy and design practice 2000–2010. RKW Architektur+Städtebau

By: Klaus-Dieter Weiss

today, the name RKW Architektur + Städtebau evokes two hundred architects whose work never fails to convince. The reason does not lie in the narrowly defined architectural language of individual leaders of the firm. More than in any other firm, the various teams are given generous latitude for independent initiative. Thus, this documentation of the last ten years, with cross - references to the development of this unique partnership since 1950, doesn’t just present sixty - five structures and projects from an internationally sought - after firm. On the contrary, in its search for the secret of the firm’s success, it looks behind the scenes in numerous interviews and essays. The works considered range from the research facilities for AUDI, the new sciences campus of RWTH Aachen University, and the corporate headquarters of Vodafone, Debitel, and Arag to urban revitalization projects, residential buildings, schools, sports halls, railroad stations, city halls, banks, urban office buildings and shopping centers, and the stadium for the 2012 European Soccer Championship in Gdansk.

Coordination Compounds 1

By: Jean-Claude Maire,Marlis Mirbach,Mirjana Kotowski,Karin Greiner,Edith Schleitzer-Rust,Volker Kruppa,Dieter Tille

The volume decribes the complexes of gallium with water, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, quinones, ethers, O-heterocycles, carboxylic acids, ammine, amines, and N-heterocycles containing one nitrogen atom in the ring. Many of these complexes are of fundamental importance in the industrial and analytical chemistry of gallium. A large number of publications describe the separation and quantification of gallium in the form of coordination compounds. This often involves extended solvent extraction studies. The present volume offers a state-of-the-art description of the complexes formed in both analytical procedures and industrial processes and will help the reader understand the fundamental chemistry involved. Certain gallium complexes are used in pharmacology. Complexes with the radionucleide 67Ga were tested to diagnose to locate malignant tumors. A widely used complex is 67gallium(III) citrate. This and other complexes are described in this volume were also tested as anticancer chemotherapeutic agents. Despite the aforementioned use of gallium complexes in clinical and industrial chemistry, often only vague ideas exist about the precise composition of the complexes, even for isolated and stable compounds. The coordination chemistry of gallium requires aditional chemical and physicochemical studies using modern techniques. Therefore this new volume of the Gmelin Handbook will certainly inspire new research to fill the gaps in the chemistry of the important element gallium.

Compounds with Oxygen and Nitrogen

By: Hannelore Keller-Rudek,Peter Merlet,Dieter Koschel,Ulrike Ohms-Bredemann,Joachim Wagner,Astrid Wietelmann

The volume describes the chemical and physical properties of the approximately 80 known bromine compounds and ions which contain oxygen and/or nitrogen, and which may include hydrogen as well. The class of bromine-oxygen and bromine-oxygen-hydrogen compounds comprises several well-known species. Their description accounts for approximately three-quarters of the volume. The BrO radical and the BrO3 ion are the most and best studied among all binary bromine-oxygen species. BrO was recently recognized to play a role in some reaction sequences depleting the ozone concentration in the stratosphere. Bromate-ion-driven chemical oscillator systems have attracted much interest in recent decades. Thus data on single reaction steps which involve BrO3, BrO2, and the oxoacides of bromine - HBrO, HBrO2, and HBrO3 - are reviewed in detail; a comprehensive description of the oscillating systems, however, is beyond the scope of this volume. The remaining one-quarter of the volume is devoted to bromine-nitrogen and bromine-nitrogen-oxygen compounds. Bromine azide and nitrosyl bromide are the most comprehensively studied of these, accounting for almost half of this section.
