We willen wel duurzamer leven, maar weten niet hoe of waar te beginnen. En waarom zouden we eigenlijk? Hoe je het ook went of keert, onze individuele CO2-uitstoot is slechts een druppel op de gloeiende plaat. Die ene vliegreis annuleren of een stuk vlees per week minder eten: maakt dat het verschil?

Ja, het individu speelt een belangrijke rol in de klimaattransitie. De inzet van het individu is zelfs noodzakelijk. Petra van der Kooij ging in gesprek met politiek-filosofen, ondernemers, actiev...

De rol en de kracht van een organisatie in de huidige tijd is ten opzichte van het verleden fundamenteel veranderd. Van verschillende kanten grijpen maat-schappelijke en economische ontwikkelingen in elkaar, waardoor ondernemers, directies en zzp’ers totaal andere vragen op zich afkrijgen dan een halve eeuw geleden. De antwoorden op die vragen leiden tot keuzes waar betekenisvolle ondernemingen uit voortkomen.

Rolf en Peter beschrijven in dit boek, aan de hand van hun ideologische visie, ho...

… Rosé wordt niet helemaal voor vol aangezien. Dat imago komt van de Franse wijnboeren die het alleen maar voor de lol gemaakt hebben. Voor erbij. Omdat ze nog wat in het vat hadden dat niet verzuurde. Ik ben ze dankbaar. Ik drink het. Nooit witte wijn (koppijn) nooit rode (maagpijn) maar rosé: hoera! Dank u, Franse wijnboeren, ook namens mijn levertje.

On October 1, 2009, the People's Republic of China (PRC) celebrated the 60th anniversary of its founding. And what an eventful and tumultuous six decades it had been. During that time, under the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), China was transformed from one of the world's poorest countries into the world's fastest growing major economy, and from a weak state barely able to govern or protect its own territory to a rising power that is challenging theUnited States for global in...

An Introduction to Quantum Field Theory is a textbook intended for the graduate physics course covering relativistic quantum mechanics, quantum electrodynamics, and Feynman diagrams.

After presenting the basics of quantum electrodynamics, the authors discuss the theory of renormalization and its r...

There is considerable national variation in the professionalization and status of the management accountant. Although researchers from different countries have contributed to our knowledge about tasks and roles, we have limited insights into the development, education, and socio-cultural influences in different countries and surprisingly little is known about the local and national contexts in which these roles are learned and performed. This book bridges this research gap using two complemen...

Standing at the very foundation of monotheism, and so of Western culture, Moses is a figure not of history, but of memory. As such, he is the quintessential subject for the innovative historiography Jan Assmann both defines and practices in this work, the study of historical memory--a study, in this case, of the ways in which factual and fictional events and characters are stored in religious beliefs and transformed in their philosophical justification, literary reinterpretation, philological...
