Basic Income Experiments - Catarina Neves - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Basic Income Experiments - Catarina Neves - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This book brings together insights and reflections following a set of interviews conducted with the main stakeholders involved in past, current, and future basic income experiments. It provides an analysis of some of the major elements and factors influencing experiments, as well of some of their most important outputs understood as results of their own experimental design, their sociological and political basis, and the epistemological status of their results. By pursuing a bottom-up strategy, where the interviews conducted take a pivotal role in the collection and analysis phase of the book, this book gathers key questions relating to policy experiments. Some questions reflected upon include the general idea of why one should engage and implement a basic income experiment, and the paradox consisting in the fact that most basic income experiments fall short of being closely considered "pure" basic income schemes. In facing the question and the paradox head-on, the book assesses questions of experimental design, the political and social context surrounding the policy, and the main results and what can they tell us about basic income.

Parents and Children in the Mid-Victorian Novel - Madeleine Wood - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Parents and Children in the Mid-Victorian Novel - Madeleine Wood - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This book produces an original argument about the emergence of ''trauma'' in the nineteenth-century through new readings of Dickens, Emily and Charlotte Bronte, Collins, Gaskell and Elliot. Madeleine Wood argues that the mid-Victorian novels present their protagonists in a state of damage, provoked and defined by the conditions of the mid-century family: the cross-generational relationship is presented as formative and traumatising. By presenting family relationships as decisive for our psychological state as well as our social identity, the Victorian authors pushed beyond the contemporary scientific models available to them. Madeleine Wood analyses the literary and historical conditions of the mid-century period that led to this new literary emphasis, and which paved the way for the emergence of psychoanalysis in Vienna at the fin de siècle . Analysing a series of theoretical texts, Madeleine Wood shows that psychoanalysis shares the mid-Victorian concern with the unequal relationship between adult and child, focusing her reading through Freud''s early writings and Jean Laplanche''s ''general theory of seduction''.

Universal Basic Income in Historical Perspective - - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Universal Basic Income in Historical Perspective - - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This new edited collection brings together historians and social scientists to engage with the global history of Universal Basic Income (UBI) and offer historically-rich perspectives on contemporary debates about the future of work. In particular, the book goes beyond a genealogy of a seemingly utopian idea to explore how the meaning and reception of basic income proposals has changed over time. The study of UBI provides a prism through which we can understand how different intellectual traditions, political agents, and policy problems have opened up space for new thinking about work and welfare at critical moments. Contributions range broadly across time and space, from Milton Friedman and the debate over guaranteed income in the post-war United States to the emergence of the European basic income movement in the 1980s and the politics of cash transfers in contemporary South Africa. Taken together, these chapters address comparative questions: why do proposals for a guaranteed minimum income emerge at some times and recede into the background in others? What kinds of problems is basic income designed to solve, and how have policy proposals been shaped by changing attitudes to gender roles and the boundaries of social citizenship? What role have transnational networks played in carrying UBI proposals between the global north and the global south, and how does the politics of basic income vary between these contexts?In short, the book builds on a growing body of scholarship on UBI and lays the groundwork for a much richer understanding of the history of this radical proposal.

From Basic to Clinical Immunology - Vladimir V. Klimov - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

From Basic to Clinical Immunology - Vladimir V. Klimov - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This book fills a gap at the interface of fundamental and clinical immunology, and allergy. For many years, experts in fundamental immunology and physicians involved in clinical immunology and allergy worked separately – but the fundamental immunologists did not have medical qualifications and the physicians were not involved in the field of fundamental research. Written by a teacher and an expert in both fields, this book combines current knowledge on basic immunology and immunopathology with clinical comments that complete the whole picture. Immunology is a complex science, which requires a simplified approach in order to be taught and understood effectively. This book is based on the authors’ long experience in teaching undergraduate, postgraduate students and interns both basic and clinical immunology. Reviewing a variety of important components related to the immune system, it is clearly and logically structured, and enriched by figures, tables and boxes with important immunology definitions. Each chapter has its own bibliography, and most units include links to electronic quizzes and audio files to accompany readers step by step. This easy-to-follow volume concludes with suggestions for future study. It is a valuable resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as medical practitioners.

Basic Calculus of Planetary Orbits and Interplanetary Flight - Alexander J. Hahn - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Basic Calculus of Planetary Orbits and Interplanetary Flight - Alexander J. Hahn - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Intended for a one-semester course, this text provides the reader with a detailed illustration of basic calculus in action as it explains the orbits of the planets and the maneuvers of interplanetary spacecraft. The remarkable exploratory spacecraft missions to the inner and outermost reaches of our solar system have been some of the greatest success stories of modern human history. The mathematical story is presented alongside a full album of the fascinating images and by incorporating the extensive data that the Voyagers, NEAR Shoemaker, Cassini, MESSENGER, Juno, and other missions have sent back to NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Extensive problem sets accompany all the discussions. An instructor has the flexibility to engage them with greater or lesser intensity. First and second year college students in mathematics, engineering, or science, as well as those seeking an enriching independent study, will gain an understanding of single variable calculus of polar functions and a deep sense of the capacity of its language and its methods to explain the complex natural phenomena and technological challenges that arise in the exploration of space. Even though a detailed exposition of the essential mathematical tools is provided, the reader would profit from the mathematical maturity gained from one or two semesters of basic calculus with its agenda of derivatives, integrals, and the fundamental theorem. Prerequisites include a working knowledge of coordinate geometry in the plane, functions and graphs, basic trigonometry, and the elementary functions (including trig, inverse, exponential, log functions). The book begins with a broad history of the efforts of the Greeks, the geniuses of the Scientific Revolution, and those of more recent astronomers to understand the solar system and the universe beyond it. This is followed by an overview of the space missions and the data about the solar system that they have returned. The basics of polar calculus and a modern version of Newton’s theory of centripetal force are developed next. The applications to elliptical orbits and their precession and to the mathematics of interplanetary flight conclude the book.

Victorian Cosmopolitanism and English Catholicity in the Mid-Century Novel - Teresa Huffman Traver - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Victorian Cosmopolitanism and English Catholicity in the Mid-Century Novel - Teresa Huffman Traver - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Victorian Cosmopolitanism and English Catholicity in the Mid-Century Novel argues that the Creedal doctrines of "the communion of saints" and the "holy Catholic Church" provided Victorian novelists-both Roman Catholic and Protestant-with a means of exploring religious forms of cosmopolitanism. Building on research exploring the divisions between Roman Catholicism and Protestantism in Victorian literature and culture, Teresa Huffman Traver considers the extent to which anti-Catholicism, domesticity, and national identity were linked. Huffman Traver connects this research with cosmopolitan theory, and analyzes how the conception of Catholicity could be used to reach beyond national identity towards a transnational community. Investigating the idea of a "rooted" cosmopolitanism, grounded in the local and limited in scope, this Pivot book offers a new angle on how religion, domesticity, and national identity were constructed in nineteenth-century British culture.
