The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Medical theory and
practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the
extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases,
their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology,
agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even
cookbooks, are all contained here.++++The below data was compiled

Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der
Vergangenheit ist es schon an allen wichtigen Borsenplatzen der
Welt zu grossen Kurseinbruchen innerhalb kurzer Zeit, so genannten
Crashs," gekommen. Als das letzte markante Ereignis dieser Art
lasst sich wohl das Platzen der Internet- und New Economy Blase an
den Finanzmarkten um die Jahrtausendwende anfuhren. Die klassische
Finanztheorie mit ihrem Modell der informationseffizienten Markte,
auf denen rationale Akteure optimale Entscheidungen treffen, ist
nicht in der Lage gewesen solche Vor-kommnisse in der Vergangenheit
zu erklaren. Insbesondere die von der Okonomie so vielfach
verwendete Annahme des homo oeconomicus" ist zunehmend in die
Kritik geraten, da Menschen in der Wirklichkeit haufig die
geforderte Rationalitat nicht an den Tag legen. Insofern war es an
der Zeit uber neue Erklarungsansatze fur die an den Finanzmarkten
auftretenden Anomalien nachzudenken. Als Ergebnis dieser Bemuhungen
kann die Begrundung der Behavioral Finance angesehen werden. Sie
versucht das von den klassischen Annahmen abweichende Verhalten der
Akteure, mit Hilfe psychologischer Verhaltensmodelle zu erklaren.
Ein wichtiger Baustein in den Modellen der klassischen Theorie ist
das Prinzip der Arbitrage. Sie garantiert, dass rationale Akteure
Kursentwicklungen, die eventuell von Fundamentalwerten abweichen,
uber die Moglichkeit von risikolosen Arbitragegewinnen wieder in
die Richtung der realistischen Werte bewegen. Das Ziel dieser
Arbeit soll es sein zu zeigen, wie die Arbitrage als das zentrale
Instrument zum Erreichen von Gleichgewichten an den Finanzmarkten,
im Rahmen der veranderten Modellannahmen der Behavioral Finance, an
die Grenzen ihrer Wirksamkeit stosst. Dazu gilt es in einem ersten
Teil die Behavioral Finance von der klassischen Finanztheorie ab

Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In den letzten
Jahrzehnten hat sich in vielen entwickelten Volkswirtschaften ein
Wandel von einer Industrie- zu einer Dienstleistungsgesellschaft
vollzogen. Damit einhergehend verschob sich auch die Bedeutung von
physischen, produktiven Unternehmenswerten zugunsten von nicht
greifbaren und nicht monetaren Werten wie Marken, Humankapital und
Innovationsfahigkeit. Einen Uberblick uber die Vielzahl dieser
immateriellen Werte gibt der Vorschlag zur Kategorisierung und
Erfassung immaterieller Werte der Schmalenbach-Gesellschaft fur
Betriebswirtschaft, indem sie die Aufteilung in ver-schiedene
Kategorien vornimmt. Der zunehmende Einfluss dieser immateriellen
Vermogenswerte als wichtige Werttreiber im Unternehmen, spiegelt
sich jedoch in den meisten Rechnungslegungssystemen noch nicht
ausreichend wider. Meist durfen selbsterstellte immaterielle Werte
in der Bilanz nicht aktiviert werden, weil ein zukunftiger Nutzen
nicht oder nicht ausreichend sicher quantifizierbar ist. In diesem
Zusammenhang spricht man bei einer engen Auslegung des
Vorsichtsprinzips auch von Konservatismus. Es lassen sich zwei
Formen der konservativen Bilanzierung unterscheiden: ex ante und ex
post Conservatism. Ex ante Conservatism verlangt fur die
Bilanzierung von Verpflichtungen einen geringeren
Wahrscheinlichkeitsgrad als fur die Bilanzierung von Vermogen.
Daraus resultiert eine dauerhafte Unterbewertung des Unternehmens.
Ex post Conservatism hingegen bezieht sich auf die Ansetzung von
Verlusten, sobald sie absehbar sind und die Ansetzung von Gewinnen
erst dann, wenn sie realisiert sind. Betreibt ein Unternehmen eine
konservative Bilanzierungspolitik, so stellt sich dies insbesondere
fur die, mit grossen Unsicherheiten behafteten, immateriellen
Vermogenswerten wegen der unzureichenden Erfassung a
John, CEO of Black Jet Securities, is about to take Russia's
leading media company public on the New York Stock Exchange. But
rumours of fraud and the disappearance of his number-two man result
in John searching for the truth at a terrible price.
'It is difficult to walk casually with $500,000 taped to your
belly.' The man with the money is being tailed by Sarah Churchill,
MI6 agent. She's in the smuggler's bazaar in Peshawar, Pakistan,
and very soon everything is going to explode all around her. In
Paris, Adam Chapel, a US Treasury Agent, has his eyes on a man
carrying a scuffed briefcase containing half a million dollars of
booby-trapped terrorist cash. Before Adam can get his hands on it,
three government agents will be dead. We are in a new era of the
war against terrorism. It's a war against terrorist money. BLOOD
MONEY. Christopher Reich's new thriller is a white knuckle ride
through the back corridors of the elite counterterrorist agencies
as they attempt to disrupt and dismantle the financial networks
that sustain terrorist organisations throughout the world. It is
his most brilliant, most gripping, most-bang-up-to-date thriller
yet.
We are in a new era of the war against terrorism - a war against
terrorist money. MI6 agent Sarah Churchill and US special agent
Nick Neumann are both tracking this blood money, in Pakistan and
Paris respectively, and both must face the explosive consequences.
At the end of World War Two Erich Seyss is being held in an
American POW camp awaiting a war crimes trial he knows will see him
hanged. Seyss escapes, finding refuge with a organisation of former
Nazis who plan a breathtaking plot.
John, CEO of Black Jet Securities, is about to take Russia's
leading media company public on the New York Stock Exchange. But
rumours of fraud and the disappearance of his number-two man result
in John searching for the truth at a terrible price.
Christopher Reich's new thriller is a white knuckle ride through
the back corridors of the elite counterterrorist agencies as they
