Written for scientists, researchers, and engineers, Non-volatile Memories describes the recent research and implementations in relation to the design of a new generation of non-volatile electronic memories. The objective is to replace existing memories (DRAM, SRAM, EEPROM, Flash, etc.) with a universal memory model likely to reach better performances than the current types of memory: extremely high commutation speeds, high implantation densities and retention time of information of about ten years.

Land conversion, climate change and species invasions are contributing to the widespread emergence of novel ecosystems, which demand a shift in how we think about traditional approaches to conservation, restoration and environmental management. They are novel because they exist without historical precedents and are self-sustaining. Traditional approaches emphasizing native species and historical continuity are challenged by novel ecosystems that deliver critical ecosystems services or are simply immune to practical restorative efforts. Some fear that, by raising the issue of novel ecosystems, we are simply paving the way for a more laissez-faire attitude to conservation and restoration. Regardless of the range of views and perceptions about novel ecosystems, their existence is becoming ever more obvious and prevalent in today’s rapidly changing world. In this first comprehensive volume to look at the ecological, social, cultural, ethical and policy dimensions of novel ecosystems, the authors argue these altered systems are overdue for careful analysis and that we need to figure out how to intervene in them responsibly. This book brings together researchers from a range of disciplines together with practitioners and policy makers to explore the questions surrounding novel ecosystems. It includes chapters on key concepts and methodologies for deciding when and how to intervene in systems, as well as a rich collection of case studies and perspective pieces. It will be a valuable resource for researchers, managers and policy makers interested in the question of how humanity manages and restores ecosystems in a rapidly changing world.

A clear, practical guide to implementing Open Innovation for new product development Open Innovation: New Product Development Essentials from the PDMA is a comprehensive guide to the theory and practice of the Open Innovation method. Written by experts from the Product Development and Management Association, the book packages a collection of Open Innovation tools in a digestible and actionable format. Real-world case studies drawn from the authors' own successes and failures illustrate the concepts presented, providing accurate representation of the opportunities and challenges of Open Innovation implementation. Key tools are presented with a focus on immediate applications for business, allowing NPD professionals to easily discern where this cutting edge development method can push innovation forward. Open Innovation assumes that companies can and should use both internal and external ideas and paths to market, permeating the boundaries between firm and environment. Innovations transfer outward and inward through purchase, licensing, joint ventures, and spin-offs, allowing companies to expand beyond their own research and dramatically improve productivity through collaboration. PDMA Essentials provides practical guidance on exploiting the Open Innovation model to these ends, with clear guidance on all aspects of the new product development process. Topics include: Product platforming and idea competitions Customer immersion and interaction Collaborative product design and development Innovation networks, rewards, and incentives Many practitioners charged with innovation have only a vague understanding of the specific tools available for Open Innovation, and how they might be applied. As the marketplace shifts dramatically to keep pace with changing consumer behaviors, remaining relevant increasingly means ramping up innovation processes. PDMA Essentials provides the tools NPD practitioners need to implement a leading innovation method, and drive continued growth.

The restriction of function and freedom of movement goes with the emotional distress of permanent coercion, which is the loss and painful realization that leads to total inability. The removal of a part of the body creates a «dent» in the personality, which can be quite significant. Any type of amputation defends itself against being dependent on other people. The question goes in the direction of loss of freedom, and the more so the less able to walk and grasp the personality. By cutting off the limb, a sector is cut out of the closed circle of individuality. However, the integrity presupposes the intactness, which is violated for medical reason. Surgery has cut into the originality of what belongs together as a unit. The reason may be considerable. Compared to the originality, they are of secondary importance. It is the image of the tree that is wounded with an ax and is «bleeding». The impact is serious. It is possible that «hemostasis» and thus wound healing is no longer possible. Separation has forever removed the integrity of the individuality and forever given it the pain in existence with incompleteness and dependency. The injured person is frail, both mentally and physically. He has to bend down to things that he had previously done «upright» or defended against. In this way the human being has become unfree in the entirety that the freedom is completely suspended. The degree of restriction determines the degree of dependence on other people. One slips out of normalcy and keeps the cut leg 'in hands' all the time. Severing of a limb is a highly traumatic intervention, this in particular to mental stress. People, especially children, lost their lives to land mines. Injured who survived were operated on in the hospital what was mostly limited to post-amputation on arms and legs. It was often the second procedure after the intervention on one or more body cavities. This trauma surgery placed an additional and heavy burden on the body and soul.

Der Inhalt dieses Buchs ist Bestandteil von 'Das gro?e Littlejohn-Kompendium'!
John Martin Littlejohn (1866-1947) geh?rt zu den brillantesten Osteopathen der Geschichte. Der hochdekorierte Akademiker erlernte dieses therapeutische Kunsthandwerk direkt von ihrem Entdecker, dem amerika-nischen Landarzt A.T.Still (1828-1917). Bei ihm wirkte er auch als Lehrer f?r Physiologie und Psychophysiologie, die er in den osteopathischen Unterricht integrierte.
Littlejohns gro?er Verdienst ist es, Stills Osteopathie wie kaum ein zweiter Osteopath in der Geschichte nachhaltig durchdrungen zu haben. Dabei belie? er es – ganz nach Still Aufforderung an die Osteopathen, unabh?ngig zu Denken – nicht dabei, dessen Ideen unkritisch zu ?bernehmen, sondern er ?berpr?fte sie mit handfester Forschung auf allerh?chstem wissenschaftlichen Niveau jener Zeit. Darauf aufbauend entwickelte er die Osteopathie insbesondere in den Bereichen der modernen Biomechanik und als Wissenschaft enorm weiter. F?r Littlejohn repr?sentierte Osteopathie stets weit mehr als ein medizinisches Verfahren oder eine Art Komplement?rmedizin. Da bei allen osteopathischen ?berlegungen die Entfaltung der Lebenskraft und nicht die Bek?mpfung von Krankheiten die zentrale Rolle spielt, steht das Leben (Bios) selbst im Zentrum aller therapeutischen ?berlegungen. Und so versteht Littlejohn die Osteopathie folgerichtig auch als biologische Wissenschaft.
Das in diesem Buch zusammengefassten f?nf zwischen 1931-1939 ver?ffentlichten Artikel belegen dabei, dass seine auch f?r die moderne Osteopathie herausfordernde und spektakul?re Sichtweise nach wie vor zu den gro?en, bislang ungehobenen Sch?tzen der Osteopathiegeschichte zu z?hlen ist.

Emanuel Swedenborg (1668-1772) ist bisher fast ausschlie?lich aufgrund seiner esoterisch-theologischen Schriften bekannt. Nur Wenige wissen, dass dieser Lebensphase zwei davon vollkommen unterschiedliche aber ebenso bedeutungsvolle Phasen vorausgingen. Bis Mitte seiner 50er war Swedenborg als wissenschaftlicher Universalgelehrter in Europa hoch gesch?tzt, der sich auch intensiv mit anatomisch-physiologischen Fragen besch?ftigte. Gerade aus seiner mittleren Schaffensperiode stammen zahlreiche herausragende und bahnbrechende Abhandlungen zu anatomisch-physiologischen Themen, deren angemessene medizinhistorische W?rdigung noch aussteht.
Swedenborgs Weltbild war von der Vorstellung zweier sich entsprechender Welten bzw. Sph?ren bestimmt – einer himmlischen und einer irdischen. Zwischen ihnen flie?en unentwegt Informationen, wobei die irdische Sph?re ein Abbild der himmlischen darstellt. Swedenborgs lebenslanger Passion galt in diesem Zusammenhang der Suche nach den anatomisch-physiologischen „Schnittstellen“ f?r diese Interaktion. Dabei antizipiert er das Nervensystem (v.a. Gehirn), Tremulationen (feinste „Zitterbewegungen“), Membranen (v.a. Gehirnh?ute, Faszien) und K?rperfl?ssigkeiten (Blut, Lymphe, Nervenwasser) als zentrale Medien. Mit diesem Ansatz begr?ndet Swedenborg ein neues anatomisch-physiologisches Denken, das – wie das vorliegende Werk eindrucksvoll belegt – auf die Philosophie der klassischen Osteopathie und die Kraniosakrale Osteopathie einen bedeutenden Einfluss haben sollte.

Palliative Care is the first book to provide a comprehensive understanding of the new field that is transforming the way Americans deal with serious illness. Diane E. Meier, M.D., one of the field's leaders and a recipient of a MacArthur Foundation «genius award» in 2009, opens the volume with a sweeping overview of the field. In her essay, Dr. Meier examines the roots of palliative care, explores the key legal and ethical issues, discusses the development of palliative care, and presents ideas on policies that can improve access to palliative care. Dr. Meier's essay is followed by reprints of twenty-five of the most important articles in the field. They range from classic pieces by some of the field's pioneers, such as Eric Cassel, Balfour Mount, and Elizabeth K?bler-Ross, to influential newer articles on topics such as caregiving and cost savings of palliative care. The reprints cover a wide range of topics including: Why the care of the seriously ill is so important Efforts to cope with advanced illness Legal and ethical issues Pain management Cross-cultural issues Philosophical perspective The demand for palliative care has been nothing short of stunning—largely because of palliative care's positive impact on both the quality and the cost of care provided to seriously ill individuals. By providing a wide-ranging perspective on this growing field, this book will serve as a guide for developing meaningful approaches that will lead to better health care for all Americans.

The patent system is criticized today by some practitioners and economists. In fact, there is a partial disconnection between patent demographics and productivity gains, but also the development of actors who do not innovate and who develop business models that their detractors equate with a capture of annuities or a dangerous commodification of patents. This book provides a less Manichaean view of the position of patents in the system of contemporary innovation. It first recalls that these criticisms are not new, before arguing that if these criticisms have been revived, it is because of a partial shift from an integrated innovation system to a much more fragmented and open system. This shift accompanied the promotion of a more competitive economy. The authors show that this movement is coherent with a more intensive use of patents, but also one that is more focused on their signal function than on their function of direct monetary incentive to innovation.

In our time of well-publicized health care travails, in the USA and the UK and elsewhere, matters of financing too often subsume the dimension of patient care. In his latest book, Alexander L. Gungov studies a vital but neglected aspect of patient safety. Of the thousands of medical errors committed on a daily basis, in the bulk of unfortunate clinical decisions, a significant share pertains to various logical flows and epistemological fallacies. By focusing on the logical dimensions of clinical medicine, Gungov promotes awareness of the logical and epistemological traps that lie in the day-to-day care of patients.
Such a focus not only allows us to avoid falling into them, but demonstrates the practical value of looking at medicine from a new philosophical perspective. That perspective involves a broad and unusual collection of philosophers. The discussion takes its starting point from J. S. Mill’s inductive methods and Giambattista Vico’s verum-factum principle, but then sets out a unique combination of Charles Sanders Peirce’s abductive reasoning, Immanuel Kant’s reflective judgment, as well as G. W. F. Hegel’s and D. P. Verene’s speculative thinking, all marshalled to present a novel philosophical account of clinical diagnostics. Interpretation of practical examples elucidate the logical aspect of medical errors and suggests strategies of overcoming them. The book as a whole demonstrates the value of Hans-Georg Gadamer’s hermeneutical insights into the enigmatic character of health.
This much-needed book will be of interest to medical practitioners, health policy-makers, patients and their families, and to advanced students and scholars in medicine, the medical humanities, medical epistemology, and the philosophy of medicine in general.

Un reto importante para el pensamiento ?tico, durante las ?ltimas d?cadas, ha sido c?mo justificar la inclusi?n de organismos y especies no humanas es la esfera de la consideraci?n moral. Son m?ltiples los trabajos centrados en definir argumentos para dar cuenta de deberes, responsabilidades o compromisos hacia animales, bosques, r?os, mares y ecosistemas. Estos trabajos representan un grupo de concepciones ?tico-ambientales desde las cuales sustentar un sentido de la obligaci?n ?tica en un ?mbito de relaciones carentes de intersubjetividad y/o simetr?a. En este libro, a la par que se presentan algunas concepciones ?tico-ambientales, se intenta desarrollar un marco de comprensi?n posibilitador de encuentros y di?logos entre dichas concepciones.

?De qu? hablamos cuando decimos persona? ?Con qu? sentidos podemos percibir su esencia? ?Es posible intentar su definici?n con las armas de la poes?a? ?Una persona vive en el papel, es un estado de la materia, sobrevive dentro de la ficci?n, puede ser un orangut?n?Derechos universales, autodeterminaci?n, documentos, pero tambi?n lo marginal, lo anecd?tico, la biolog?a. La identidad se construye desde frentes dis?miles; todos abonan a la multitud, la sociedad, esas esfinges tramitol?gicas a las que interrogamos, parad?jicamente, para recuperar la individualidad.Estas p?ginas proponen una b?squeda singular y necesaria: la de la persona que hay en los otros, pero que tambi?n ―en la experiencia siempre confrontadora y fundacional de la poes?a― podemos redescubrir en nosotros mismos.

Das Gesundheitswesen, insbesondere die Krankenh?user, sind nach wie vor gekennzeichnet von Ineffizienz, fehlenden Standardisierungen und Ressourcenverschwendung bei zunehmender Komplexit?t. Der rein ?konomische Ansatz zur Verbesserung der Wirtschaftlichkeit von Krankenhausbetrieben kommt an seine Grenzen, wenn nicht auch die medizinischen Kernprozesse, die Mitarbeiter und deren Beitrag zur systematischen Steigerung der Leistungsf?higkeit einbezogen werden. Die Konzentration auf Umsatzsteigerung und Kostenkontrolle allein f?hrt im Klinikbetrieb nicht zum Ziel!
Die Autoren dieses Buches zeigen aus ihrer Managementpraxis heraus, mit welchen Werkzeugen die Klinikmitarbeiter in ihrer unmittelbaren T?tigkeit am Patienten die Leistungsf?higkeit resp. Performance in ihrem Arbeitsbereich steigern k?nnen – ohne Einbu?en, ja sogar mit Steigerung von Behandlungsqualit?t und Arbeitszufriedenheit.
Die Autoren haben ein Konzept zur Performance-Steigerung entwickelt und erfolgreich umgesetzt, das alle Disziplinen und Hierarchien einer Klinik miteinbezieht und Hindernisse sowie Vorbehalte zwischen den Erfahrungswelten Medizin und Management ?berwindet. Dieses Buch beschreibt das ganzheitliche, ?ber mehrere Jahre hinweg erfolgreich getestete Prinzip zur systematischen, umfassenden, ?konomischen und qualitativen Optimierung der Leistungserbringung am Patienten.
