        Tourism Behaviour

        Travellers' Decisions and Actions

        by Edited by Roger StG March, Arch G Woodside

        Consumers' planned behaviour is often very different to what is actually carried out. Consumer plans can relate to four behaviours: planned and done (deliberate strategies), planned and not done (unrealized strategies), unplanned and done (emergent strategies) and unplanned and not done (unused strategies). This book examines alternative theories and the empirical testing of how planning relates to doing. It considers tourist spending, length of stay, attractions, destinations, accommodation and activities and looks at how marketing strategies affect consumer plans.

        Practical R for Biologists

        An Introduction

        by Donald Quicke, Buntika A Butcher, Rachel Kruft Welton

        R is a freely available, open-source statistical programming environment which provides powerful statistical analysis tools and graphics outputs. R is now used by a very wide range of people; biologists (the primary audience of this book), but also all other scientists and engineers, economists, market researchers and medical professionals. R users with expertise are constantly adding new associated packages, and the range already available is immense.This text works through a set of studies that collectively represent almost all the R operations that biology students need in order to analyse their own data. The material is designed to serve students from first year undergraduates through to those beginning post graduate levels. Chapters are organized around topics such as graphing, classical statistical tests, statistical modelling, mapping, and text parsing. Examples are based on real scientific studies, and each one covers the use of more R functions than those simply necessary to get a p-value or plot.The book walks the reader through the data analysis process, starting with very simple plots, and continuing through more complex analyses and programming. It shows how to deal with issues such as error messages that can be confronting for beginners, in order to set students up for a successful scientific career using R.Collectively the authors have a vast amount of teaching experience which they apply here to make the passage into R programming as gentle and easy as possible, whilst guiding the reader to tackle quite complicated programming. Table of contents 1: How to Use this Book 2: Installing and Running R 3: Very Basic R Syntax 4: First Simple Programs and Graphics 5: The Dataframe Concept 6: Plotting Biological Data in Various Ways 7: The Grammar of Graphics Family of Packages 8: Sets and Venn diagrams 9: Statistics: Choosing the Right Test 10: Commonly Used Measures and Statistical Tests 11: Regression and Correlation Analyses 12: Count Data as Response Variable 13: Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) 14: Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) 15: More Generalised Linear Modelling 16: Monte Carlo Tests and Randomisation 17: Principal Components Analysis 18: Species Abundance, Accumulation and Diversity Data 19: Survivorship 20: Dates and Julian Dates 21: Mapping and Parsing Text Input for Data 22: More on Manipulating Text 23: Phylogenies and Trees 24: Working with DNA Sequences and other character data 25: Spacing in Two Dimensions 26: Population Modelling Including Spatially Explicit Models 27: More on “apply” Family of Functions – Avoid Loops to get More Speed 28: Food webs and simple graphics 29: Adding Photographs 30: Standard Distributions in R 31: Reading and Writing Data to and from Files

        Das Fest der Liebe

        Neue Weihnachtsgeschichten

        by Susanne Gretter

        Weihnachten ist das Fest der Liebe – was zu beweisen ist. Indem man es mit der Liebsten auf einer einsamen Berghütte verbringt. Oder – ganz ohne Weihnachtsbaum - unter Palmen. Man lädt die Eltern zu sich nach Hause ein. Oder – natürlich nur den Kindern zuliebe – den geschiedenen Mann. Oder aus purer Nächstenliebe eine Flüchtlingsfamilie? Was geschieht, wenn Mutter und Sohn sich zufällig auf einer Bank vor der Bahnhofsmission wiedertreffen? Weihnachtsliebe – mitmenschlich, christlich, erotisch – treibt seltsame Blüten. Davon wissen die in diesem Band versammelten Autorinnen und Autoren ein Lied zu singen: Friedrich Ani, Antonia Baum, Doris Dörrie, Tanja Dückers, Harald Martenstein, Stefan Moster, Edgar Rai, Daniel Schreiber und viele andere. Fröhlich, melancholisch, liebevoll, heiter und humorvoll: Geschichten über ein Gefühl, das uns an Weihnachten überfällt – und nur schwer zu bändigen ist.

        Kluge Mädchen oder wie wir wurden, was wir nicht werden sollten

        by Antonia Meiners

        Mädchen von heute sind selbstbewusst, entscheiden frei und nach eigenem Gusto – egal ob in der Liebe oder im Beruf. Doch es ist nicht lange her, da waren die Perspektiven junger Frauen meist beschränkt auf Heim und Herd. Wie sich das im Laufe des 20. Jahrhunderts verändert hat, davon erzählen Tagebuchaufzeichnungen, Briefe und Erinnerungen, u. a. von Senta Berger, Ulla Hahn, Marie Luise Kaschnitz und Luise Rinser. Sie zeigen, wie wir, unsere Urgroßmütter, Großmütter, Mütter und Töchter von ihrer jeweiligen Zeit geprägt sind. Antonia Meiners hat ein Album mit Geschichten und Bildern zusammengestellt, das uns zeigt: Die Mädchen, die unbeirrt ihren eigenen Weg gehen, haben den Wind im Rücken!

        Imperialism and the natural world

        by John M. MacKenzie

        Imperial power, both formal and informal, and research in the natural sciences were closely dependent in the nineteenth century. This book examines a portion of the mass-produced juvenile literature, focusing on the cluster of ideas connected with Britain's role in the maintenance of order and the spread of civilization. It discusses the political economy of Western ecological systems, and the consequences of their extension to the colonial periphery, particularly in forms of forest conservation. Progress and consumerism were major constituents of the consensus that helped stabilise the late Victorian society, but consumerism only works if it can deliver the goods. From 1842 onwards, almost all major episodes of coordinated popular resistance to colonial rule in India were preceded by phases of vigorous resistance to colonial forest control. By the late 1840s, a limited number of professional positions were available for geologists in British imperial service, but imperial geology had a longer pedigree. Modern imperialism or 'municipal imperialism' offers a broader framework for understanding the origins, long duration and persistent support for overseas expansion which transcended the rise and fall of cabinets or international realignments in the 1800s. Although medical scientists began to discern and control the microbiological causes of tropical ills after the mid-nineteenth century, the claims for climatic causation did not undergo a corresponding decline. Arthur Pearson's Pearson's Magazine was patriotic, militaristic and devoted to royalty. The book explores how science emerged as an important feature of the development policies of the Colonial Office (CO) of the colonial empire.

        Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre

        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Aaron Cushley, Silke Kleemann

        Schon in der Schule hatte er ein Faible für alte Sprachen. Er lernte nicht nur Latein und Griechisch, sondern auch Alt- und Mittelenglisch. Und er malte Karten, auf denen er die Welt des Mittelalters wieder zum Leben erweckte. Später erfand der Professor für Sprachwissenschaft für seine Kinder fantastische Geschichten. Und so entstand die Welt der Hobbits, Elben, Zwerge und Zauberer - und die Saga vom »Herrn der Ringe«. Das Buch und seine Verfilmungen schlagen bis heute ein Millionenpublikum in Bann. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.

        Die Stunde der Frauen

        Zwischen Monarchie, Weltkrieg und Wahlrecht 1913-1919

        by Antonia Meiners

        »So ist das Leben und so muss man es nehmen, tapfer, unverzagt und lächelnd.« Rosa Luxemburg 1913 gab es Kaiserreiche und Monarchien, die Frauen trugen lange Kleider und arbeiteten zumeist im Haus, Bildung und Selbstständigkeit waren alles andere als selbstverständlich. Doch die angestammten Verhältnisse standen kopf, als 1914 der Krieg ausbrach und Frauen vielerorts die Verantwortung übernahmen – in Fabriken, Lazaretten, Betrieben und in der Landwirtschaft. Als 1918 der Krieg dann zu Ende war, gab es kein Kaiser- und kein Zarenreich mehr, die Kleider wurden kürzer, das Selbstbewusstsein der Frauen war gestiegen. Jetzt setzten unsere Groß- und Urgroßmütter in Deutschland und Österreich das Wahlrecht durch. Antonia Meiners führt anhand von Porträts bekannter und unbekannter Frauen und vielen privaten Dokumenten durch eine Zeit, an deren Ende die Welt – gerade für Frauen – eine andere war. »Eine Welt ging zu Ende, eine andere entstand. An diesem Übergang befand ich mich, eine Chance bot sich, und die ergriff ich. Ich hatte das richtige Alter für dieses neue Jahrhundert.« Coco Chanel

        Intentionalität

        Eine Abhandlung zur Philosophie des Geistes

        by Harvey P. Gavagai, John R. Searle

        Nach seinen sprachphilosophischen Arbeiten ('Sprechakte', stw 458; 'Ausdruck und Bedeutung', stw 349) hat John R. Searle mit 'Intentionalität' eine Untersuchung zu einem Kernstück der Philosophie des Geistes vorgelegt, die in einem engen thematischen Zusammenhang mit den früheren Arbeiten steht. Intentionalität ist nach Searles Auffassung die Basis sprachlicher Bedeutung. In seiner Theorie der Intentionalität geht es um die begrifflichen Eigenschaften intentionaler Zustände (auf die Frage nach ihrem ontologischen Status geht er ausführlicher ein in 'Geist, Hirn und Wissenschaft', stw 591). Zwei Aspekte stehen dabei im Vordergrund der Untersuchung: die Logik der Repräsentation und der Kausalität intentionaler Zustände. Doch Searle entwickelt in dieser Arbeit nicht nur eine Theorie der Intentionalität und des Zusammenhangs zwischen sprachlichem und geistigem Inhalt. In einem vornehmlich kritischen Teil setzt er sich ausführlich mit konkurrierenden Auffassungen aus dem Bereich der analytischen Philosophie auseinander, insbesondere mit derzeit sehr einflußreichen 'nicht-deskriptivistischen' Theorien des Bezugs, wie sie von S. Kripke, H. Putnam, K. Donnellan, T. Burge und D. Kaplan vertreten und angeregt wurden.

        Air empire

        British imperial civil aviation, 1919–39

        by Gordon Pirie, Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie

        Air empire is a fresh study of civil aviation as a tool of late British imperialism. The first pioneering flights across the British empire in 1919-20 were flag-waving adventures that recreated an era of plucky British maritime exploration and conquest. Britain's development of international air routes and services was approved, organised and celebrated largely in London; there was some resistance in and beyond the subordinate colonies and dominions. Negotiating the financing and geopolitics of regular commercial air service delayed its inception until the 1930s. Technological, managerial and logistical problems also meant that Britain was slow into the air and slow in the air. Propaganda concealed underperformance and criticism. The study uses archival sources, biographies, industry magazines and newspapers to chronicle the disputed progress toward air empire. The rhetoric behind imperial air service offers a glimpse of late imperial hopes, fears, attitudes and style. Empire air service had emotional appeal and symbolic value, but disappointed in practice.

        A book of monsters

        Promethean horror in modern literature and culture

        by David Ashford

        This books traces the rise to prominence in the twentieth-century of a sub-genre of gothic fiction that is, emphatically, a horror of enlightenment rationality rather than gothic darkness, examining post-modern revisions of Modernist "Promethean" tropes in an eclectic range of gothic, fantasy and SF writing. Whether the subject be terror of London's churches in the psychogeographical fiction of Iain Sinclair and Alan Moore, the Orcs in the linguistic fantasies of J.R.R. Tolkien, King Kong, killer-computers, or demon-children in post-war British science-fiction, A Book of Monsters offers illuminating perspectives on the darker recesses of the post-modern imagination, setting out a compelling, and comprehensive, overview on our contemporary unconscious.
