Ecologists and economists both use models to help develop strategies for biodiversity management. The practical use of disciplinary models, however, can be limited because ecological models tend not to address the socioeconomic dimension of biodiversity management, whereas economic models tend to neglect the ecological dimension. Given these shortcomings of disciplinary models, there is a necessity to combine ecological and economic knowledge into ecological-economic models. Gradually guiding the reader into the field of ecological-economic modelling by introducing mathematical models and their role in general, this book provides an overview on ecological and economic modelling approaches relevant for research in the field of biodiversity conservation. It discusses the advantages of and challenges associated with ecological-economic modelling, together with an overview of useful ways of integration. Although being a book about mathematical modelling, ecological and economic concepts play an equally important role, making it accessible for readers from very different disciplinary backgrounds.

"Früher war alles besser." Diesen Satz hören wir in jedem Jahrzehnt, von jeder Generation. Doch unser Gehirn ist ein notorischer Lügner, wenn es um das Speichern von Erinnerungen geht. Das Phänomen der "Rosy Retrospection" beschreibt die unbewusste kognitive Verzerrung, bei der negative, stressige oder schlichtweg langweilige Aspekte der Vergangenheit rigoros gelöscht werden. Übrig bleibt ein weichgezeichnetes Best-of-Album, das es in der Realität niemals gab.Dieses psychologische Sachbuch analysiert die Mechanik unserer Vergangenheitsverklärung. Es erklärt, warum wir uns an den Regen im Familienurlaub nicht mehr erinnern, die stressige Schulzeit plötzlich romantisieren und dadurch fatale Fehler bei zukünftigen Entscheidungen machen. Die Nostalgie ist kein objektives Archiv, sondern ein biochemischer Schutzmechanismus gegen die Unsicherheit der Gegenwart.Befreien Sie sich von der lähmenden Illusion der perfekten Vergangenheit. Wer die Verzerrung des rosa Filters versteht, hört auf, einem unerreichbaren Gestern hinterherzutrauern, und lernt, die Reibung der Gegenwart endlich als normales und gesundes Leben zu akzeptieren.

Nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs stand der niederländische Künstler Han van Meegeren wegen Hochverrats vor Gericht. Sein mutmaßliches Verbrechen: Er hatte unbezahlbare nationale Kunstwerke, darunter Meisterwerke von Jan Vermeer, an führende Nazis wie Hermann Göring verkauft.Um der sicheren Hinrichtung zu entgehen, musste van Meegeren das Unfassbare gestehen. Die Gemälde waren allesamt wertlose Fälschungen, die er selbst in seinem Atelier mit einer genialen chemischen Methode auf alt getrimmt hatte. Er hatte die gefürchtetsten Besatzer Europas nach Strich und Faden betrogen.Dieses Buch analysiert die Brillanz und die psychologische Manipulation hinter dem größten Kunstbetrug des 20. Jahrhunderts. Es zeigt, wie van Meegeren die elitäre Arroganz und die blinde Gier der Kunstkritiker und der Nazis gezielt ausnutzte.Tauchen Sie ein in eine Welt aus falschen Signaturen, giftigen Chemikalien und purer Rache, und verstehen Sie, wie ein gescheiterter Maler zum unwahrscheinlichen Helden einer ganzen Nation wurde.
