For the first time, a 60-person team of internationally renowned editors and authors presents a textbook of osteopathic medicine that is oriented towards clinical symptoms.

Introductory chapters on history, philosophy and the spread of osteopathy are followed by a presentation of its scientific basis that clearly demonstrates how firmly osteopathy is rooted in science.

Further chapters cover osteopathic research, diagnosis and principles of treatment.

Two parts on therapeutic strategies in osteopathic practice form the core of this book.

The first is divided into regions of the body, the second into clinical specialties that offer opportunities for osteopathic treatment.

In both clinical parts, osteopathic therapy is presented in the entirety in which it is actually practiced - without the common but artificial separation of parietal, visceral and craniosacral treatment.

First, the clinical symptom is explained from a medical perspective, then the osteopathic perspective and and treatment is presented. Thus, the title is not only suitable for conveying a profound understanding of osteopaths in training, be they doctors or non-medical practitioners, but also as a clinical reference of osteopathic medicine for everyday treatment.

Philip Henry, 4th Earl Stanhope, was considered by his contemporaries one of the most enigmatic figures surrounding the mystery of Kaspar Hauser. An English aristocrat who assumed the role of Hauser's foster father, Stanhope presented himself as a benevolent philanthropist concerned solely with the young man's welfare. Hauser - who appeared on the streets of Nuremberg at the age of sixteen, claiming to have been raised in total isolation - was hailed as a symbol of 'natural innocence' and dubbed 'the Child of Europe'. But five years later, he was dead from a stab wound to the chest. Though whispers of Stanhope's involvement in the tragedy have persisted, they have never been definitively proven - until now.In this groundbreaking and only major biography of Stanhope, Johannes Mayer uncovers the true and disturbing nature of the nobleman's relationship with the mysterious youth. Far from being a caring patron, Stanhope was a British intelligence agent trained for a career in European political espionage. Groomed by powerful allies and fluent in German, Stanhope was strategically positioned to observe - and ultimately neutralize - Hauser. His mission: win Hauser's trust, make him dependent, and then discredit and abandon him, setting the stage for his downfall.Drawing on extensive primary sources - including letters, official documents and newly revealed material - Mayer paints a gripping portrait of deception and betrayal. Featuring dozens of photographs and illustrations, this riveting account follows a trail of intrigue from Great Britain and Sicily to the courts of Germany and Austria. At the heart of the story stands Kaspar Hauser: a tragic, sacrificial figure in the spiritual history of modern humanity.

The goal of software engineering is to achieve high-quality software in a cost-effective, timely, and reproducible manner. Advances in technology offer reductions in cost and schedule, but their effect on software quality often remains unknown. The International Conferenceon the Quality of Software Architectures(QoSA 2005)focusedon software architectures and their relation to software quality, while the International Workshop on Software Quality (SOQUA 2005) mainly focused on quality assurance and more precisely on software testing. These events complement each other in their view on software quality. One of the main motivations for explicitly modelling software architectures is to enable reasoning on software quality. From a software engineering perspective, a so- ware architecture not only depicts the coarse-grained structure of a program, but also includes additional information such as the program's dynamics (i. e. , the ?ows of c- trol through the system) and the mapping of its components and connections to e- cution environments (such as hardware processors, virtual machines, network conn- tions, and the like).In this area, QoSA 2005is concernedwith researchand experiences that investigate the in?uence a speci?c software architecturehas on software quality - pects. Additionally,the developmentof methodsto evaluate software architectureswith respect to these quality attributes is considered to be an important topic. The quality - tributes of interest include external properties, such as reliability and ef?ciency, as well as internal properties, such as maintainability.

Die gesprächsförmige Begegnung mit Literatur ist grundlegend für die literarische Sozialisation. Eine besondere Form, diese Begegnung und die daraus resultierenden Verstehens- und Lernprozesse didaktisch zu gestalten, bietet das Heidelberger Modell des Literarischen Unterrichtsgesprächs. Seit seiner Entstehung vor knapp 20 Jahren hat es in der fachdidaktischen Diskussion große Resonanz erfahren und gehört inzwischen zum festen Bestandteil des schulischen Literaturunterrichts aller Schularten und Klassenstufen. Der vorliegende Band vereint Beiträge, die aus dem von den Herausgebern veranstalteten dritten Heidelberger Symposion zum Literarischen Unterrichtsgespräch hervorgegangen sind. In didaktischen Reflexionen und empirischen Rekonstruktionen befassen sich die Beiträge aus unter-schiedlichen Perspektiven mit dem Ansatz und ordnen ihn in den fachdidaktischen Diskurs ein. Die Leserinnen und Leser erhalten dadurch einen differenzierten Einblick und können selbst das Potential einer literarischen Gesprächsdidaktik erkunden.
