Klaus Mollenhauer – författare

Klaus Mollenhauer’s Forgotten Connections: On Culture and Upbringing is internationally regarded as one of the most important German contributions to educational and curriculum theory in the 20th century. Appearing here in English for the first time, the book draws on Mollenhauer’s concern for social justice and his profound awareness of the pedagogical tension between the inheritance of the past and the promise of the future. The book focuses on the idea of Bildung, in which philosophy and education come together to see upbringing and maturation as being much more about holistic experience than skill development.This translation includes a detailed introduction from Norm Friesen, the book’s translator and editor. This introduction contextualizes the original publication and discusses its application to education today. Although Mollenhauer’s work focused on content and culture, particularly from a German perspective, this book draws on philosophy and sociology to offer internationally relevant responses to the challenge of communicating cultural values and understandings to new generations. Forgotten Connections will be of value to students, researchers and practitioners working in the fields of education and culture, curriculum studies, and in educational and social foundations.

Die 4. Auflage dieses maßgeblichen Nachschlagewerkes informiert umfassend über den aktuellen Stand und die neuesten Entwicklungen der inzwischen 120 Jahre alten Dieseltechnologie. Mehr als 90 Experten aus Industrie und Wissenschaft zeigen zentrale sowie zukunftsweisende Innovationen zur Verbesserung der CO2- und Schadstoffemissionen, des Betriebsverhaltens, der Kosten, der Zuverlässigkeit und Robustheit des Dieselantriebs. Aktuelle Entwicklungen berücksichtigt das Werk mit Erweiterungen um Inhalte zu alternativen Kraftstoffen, insbesondere zu Gasanwendungen, sowie zur Einbindung des Dieselmotors in hybride Antriebskonzepte für Pkw und Nutzfahrzeuge. Nach wie vor steht im Fokus der Entwicklungsanstrengungen, den Dieselmotor hinsichtlich seiner NOx- und Partikelemissionen zu verbessern, um auch künftigen gesetzlichen Grenzwerten zu entsprechen. Das Buch befasst sich mit der Theorie, der Konstruktion und der Anwendung des Dieselmotors für alle möglichen Einsatzarten, vom Antrieb für Pkw über SUVs und Pick-ups bis hin zu den schwersten Nutzfahrzeugen und Lokomotiven, für stationäre und mobile Arbeitsmaschinen sowie für nahezu alle Schiffsgrößen.
