als een noodzakelijke basis om genuanceerd naar andere mensen en naar situaties te kunnen kijken. Het gaat hierbij om onderwerpen als de positieve en negatieve kant van je vanzelfsprekendheden, ook jezelf kunnen zijn bij het zetten van "een tweede stap" en dat je zelf meer kunt dan je misschien denkt. Omgaan met anderen wordt daarin geleidelijk verwerkt. Hierna wordt ingegaan op gevoelens, de verwerking van moeilijke ervaringen, zoals impasses waarin je kunt terechtkomen, kritisch omgaan met je vanzelfsprekende ideeën en meningen, je willen inleven in de gevoelens en situatie van een ander (empathie) als voorwaarde voor contact, de noodzaak van elkaar bewust waardering geven, kritisch kijken naar kritiek, jezelf kunnen zijn zonder anderen onnodig te kwetsen en een stappenplan om zelfvertrouwen en assertiviteit te versterken. De laatste hoofdstukken gaan over het uitbreiden van je mogelijkheden tot empathie, het voorkomen van sneeuwbaleffecten bij moeilijk gedrag van mensen, streven naar ontwikkelingen, je macht in een bepaalde situatie op een positieve manier gebruiken en dat het waarmaken van goede ideeën niet vanzelf gaat.Par C.H.C.J. van Nijnatten. 2007
Wetenschappelijke boeken over maatschappelijk werk zijn in Nederland schaars, terwijl in de Verenigde Staten en Groot-Brittanië zeer veel interessante studies…
over dit onderwerp gepubliceerd worden. Om hiervan ook in Nederland te kunnen profiteren, is besloten het boek Constructive Social Work. Towards a new practice van Nigel Parton en Patrick O'Byrne te vertalen.Het boek is een voorbeeld van een constructieve benadering van het maatschappelijk werk. Deze stroming is ook in Nederland de laatste jaren sterk in opgang. Met de term 'constructief willen de auteurs benadrukken dat het maatschappelijk werk in hun ogen een opbouwende activiteit is die erop gericht is mensen te helpen om opnieuw betekenis te geven aan hun leven. Deze constructieve benadering is vooral gericht op de dialoog tussen maatschappelijk werkers en hun cliënten.Par Gill Gorell Barnes. 2004

multi-agent control theory. The contents of this book are divided into four parts. The book describes the microgrid voltage regulation model construction. Building upon this foundation, the book investigates fault-tolerant and event-triggered control problems under different constraints. The effectiveness and applicability of the design methods are verified by simulation arithmetic and applications.The key features of this book are summarized as follows.1) Development of a unified modeling framework for the analysis and design of voltage regulation protocols. 2) Utilization of a novel approach to analyze microgrid secondary control systems, addressing various issues such as event triggering and fault-tolerant control problems. 3) A set of newly developed techniques (e.g., Lyapunov stability theory, LMI techniques) is used to addressemerging voltage regulation challenges.This book is a timely reflection of developments in the new field of integrated theory of voltage regulation and multi-agent system control for microgrids. It serves as a comprehensive collection of the latest research findings, making it a valuable textbook for senior and graduate students who are interested in acquiring knowledge about the following: 1) the latest techniques in microgrid voltage regulation; 2) the latest advances in multi-agent system control; and 3) the latest advances in stability/performance analysis, tracking control, fault-tolerant control, event-triggeredcontrol, and adaptive control. The content of this monograph is divided into six parts. 1) Part one studies the classical problems of microgrid control and multi-agent control. 2) Part two focuses on the event-triggered fault-tolerant voltage restoration problem for islanded microgrids. 3) Part three addresses the fully distributed fault-tolerant secondary event-triggered control of microgrids under directed graphs. 4) Part four examines the output feedback-based fault-tolerant load voltage regulation problem using intermittent communication. 5) Part five presents the secondary load voltage and frequency regulation control based on hierarchical fault-tolerant containment control. 5) Part six investigates the distributed critical bus voltage regulation control problem for multiple microgrids with a positive minimum inter-event time.Par Agustín Udías. 2024
Athanasius Kircher, the eminent 17th-century German Jesuit professor of mathematics at the Roman College emerges as a captivating figure within…
the pages of this monograph by Agustín Udías. Aptly deemed 'the man who knew everything,' Kircher's thirty-two comprehensive works, spanning an array of subjects, provide a unique lens into his visionary perspectives. This book delves into three selected works where Kircher unveils his conceptualization of the Earth, termed the 'Geocosmos,' treated magnetism as a cosmic and spiritual force, and embarks on a cosmic exploration from Earth to the stars. From his groundbreaking speculations on the Earth's interior, attributing earthquakes and volcanoes to intricate channels of air, water, and fire, to his cosmic journey accompanied by the ethereal spirit Cosmiel, Kircher's enduring allure persists. Despite variance from contemporary knowledge, situated at the beginning of modern science, Kircher's proposals of the structure of the Earth’s interior, cosmic magnetic theories, and space journey to the stars offer a compelling glimpse into the intellectual landscape of a bygone era, making this book an essential exploration for scholars seeking a nuanced understanding of Kircher's profound influence.Par Darbi L.

This book explores the integral role that student affairs professionals play in the success of international students at higher education…
institutions in the US. International student support has often been thought of as the principal responsibility of international student services offices, but research suggests that international student engagement in the broader university community, and support for them by all student affairs and services offices on campus, is closely tied to persistence and retention. The authors explore a student development theory-based approach to supporting the experience and success of international students from all facets of student affairs and services. The book explores practical and strategic implications of a more integrative approach to international student support both inside and outside of the classroom, while also utilizing a critical lens in applying models that were originally built for predominantly white institutions and US citizens.Par Gianna Behrendt. 2024
In ihrer ideologiekritischen Arbeit betrachtet Behrendt den beziehungstheoretischen Zusammenhang zwischen kulturwirksamen Naturvorstellungen und deren lebensweltlichen Ausdrücken. Dazu widmet sie sich…
dem Desiderat der natürlichen Geburt als Explikation einer als intrinsisch gut und heilsam imaginierten Natur. Sie widmet sich den Fragen, welche Naturvorstellungen das Ideal einer natürlichen Geburt sprachlich (re-)produziert und welches, ideengeschichtlich vermitteltes Weltempfinden sich darin ausdrückt. Anhand des Phänomens zeichnet Behrendt Ambivalenzen und Konflikte der identifizierten Natürlichkeitsideale nach. Sie zeigt, dass das Festschreiben bestimmter Erfahrungsqualitäten als Natur kulturelle Versuche darstellen, ein unverfügbares Geschehen symbolisch verfügbar zu stellen. Damit verhandelt Behrendt eine Kritik der Natur als Erfahrungsgegenüber, wie es die Resonanztheorie Hartmut Rosas beschreibt. Nicht zuletzt wirft sie die Frage auf, inwiefern der emanzipatorische Impetus des selbstbestimmten Gebärens den Unterdrückungsmoment der Medikalisierung durch eine feste Ordnung der Natur ersetzt hat.Par Jörg Niemann, Benedikt Reich, Carsten Stöhr. 2024
