The Crisis Of Modernity

Recent Critical Theories Of Culture And Society In The United States And West Germany

By: Gunter H. Lenz,Kurt L. Shell

The crisis~ of the "project of modernity" (Habermas) is, at the same time, a crisis of critical theories of society and culture that have radically questioned bourgeois culture and capitalist society and economy from the perspective of a utopia of enlightened rationality. A number of parallel recent social and political problems, developments, and

The Transformation of Austrian Socialism

By: Kurt Leo Shell

As most political observers know, the powerful socialist parties of Western and Central Europe are facing a profound crisis due to their departure from the Marxist slogans of their youth and their increasing inability to define the meaning of "socialist" goals in the prosperous mixed economy of individual enterprise and welfare state now in full blast in most European countries. In Dr. Shell's judgment the Austrian Socialist Party exhibits this transformation most clearly. A modern "mass" party, containing more then ten per cent of the entire Austrian population as dues-paying members, it is no longer full of the sound and fury of Marxist class-war slogans. Instead, its traditional labels conceal a loss of direction, of clear sense of mission, and of the "State within a State" function originally envisaged. In tracing its history, its personalities, and achievements from World War I to the present day, Dr. Shell presents a complete and authoritative picture not only of the Austrian Socialist Party, but of what may well be the shape of things to come in the other Socialist parties of Central and Western Europe.

Th Thorium

General Properties. Spectra. Recoil Reactions

By: Robert G. Behrens,Michael Bickel,Rolf Engleman,Jean Fuger,Lawrence E. Grimes,Basil Kanellakopulos,Daniel J. Lam,Kurt Roessler,Boyd W. Veal

The present volume describes the general properties of the thorium atom and ions, the thermodynamics of its compounds and solutions, the behavior of solutions and solid com pounds under the influence of its own radiation as well as an external radiation field, and spectroscopic data in great detail. The different chapters are of special interest to scientists who work in these fields, and also in the corresponding fields of other elements. In some special fields there exists a detailed knowledge of this radioelement whereas in other fields, such as M6Bbauer spectra, lower oxidation states, or radiation stability, there are large gaps. Due to the fact that the significance 23 of thorium as a breeder fuel ( 2"fh to be converted to fissile 233U after thermal neutron capture) has decreased within the last decade, the behavior of thorium is not as yet so thoroughly investigated as the heavier radioactive element uranium. Many of these data, however, are not only of academic interest, e.g., the knowledge of atomic spectra is needed for some analytical methods, especially in the trace concentration region. Due to the noble gaS-like electronic configuration of the tetravalent ion, there are no absorption bands in the visible region so that in general spectra and data are very scarce. This volume is a very detailed and critically reviewed compilation, written by experts from the Federal Republic of Germany, Belgium, and the United States.

Physical Chemistry

How Chemistry Works

By: Kurt W. Kolasinski

In der Chemie geht es überwiegend um die Frage: Wie? Wie wird primärer Alkohol hergestellt? Durch Reaktion eines Grignard-Reagenz mit Formaldehyd. In der physikalischen Chemie lautet die Frage: Warum? Das Grignard-Reagenz und Formaldehyd tanzen auf Molekülebene. Man spricht von einem Reaktionsmechanismus, bei dem stärkere Verbindungen schwächere Verbindungen vom Parkett fegen. Wenn Sie wissen möchten, warum das so ist, ist dieses Buch genau richtig. Physical Chemistry: How Chemistry Works verfolgt einen neuen Ansatz bei der Vermittlung der Lerninhalte rund um die physikalische Chemie. Dieses moderne Lehrbuch soll Chemiestudenten im Hauptstudium für das Fachgebiet begeistern und auf die Anwendung der physikalischen Chemie in der Praxis vorbereiten. Praxisorientiert, leserfreundlich und modern sind die Beispiele, mit denen sich die physikalisch-chemischen Aspekte jedes Systems besser verstehen lassen. Studenten der anorganischen Chemie, organischen Chemie, analytischen Chemie und Biochemie erfahren alles Wissenswerte über die physikalische Chemie und wissen im Anschluss, was Synthesen, intermolekularen Wechselwirkungen und Materialeigenschaften sind. Studenten, die sich eingehender mit der physikalischen Chemie beschäftigen möchten, erleichtert dieses Lehrbuch diesen Schritt, denn es zeigt auch die Grenzen der Forschung auf.

Formulas, Facts and Constants for Students and Professionals in Engineering, Chemistry, and Physics

By: Helmut J. Fischbeck,Kurt H. Fischbeck

The second edition of "Formulas, Facts and Constants" has been enlarged without undue increase in volume. The constants have been revised to 1986 values. Prom~ted by comments of many readers a section on error analysis has been added. host impor tantly, the new edition now has a subject index in addition to the detailed Table of Contents. The basic format has not been changed and the aim of the book remains to be a handy source of formulas, conversion factors and constants for everyday use. Fundamental tools of mathematics needed in all areas of the physical sciences are given in Section 1. Conversion factors and fundamental constants are 1 isted in Section 2. Section 3 gives information on terms and facts of spectroscopy and atomic structure. Section 4 reviews basic elements of wave mechanics. Section 5 is a resource for work in the laboratory and is intended to be of assistance in the use of frequently encountered equipment such as electronic devices, detectors, vacuum systems, etc. Material constants and other data frequently needed for esti mates and problem solving are provided. This new edition is dedicated to the memory of my father, Kurt Fischbeck, who was instrumental that this book was written in the first place. I have benefitted from his experience as an editor and author. He died shortly before the first edition appeared in print. I wish to thank my colleagues Jack Cohn and Stewart Ryan for their useful comments.
