The Watch Book - More than Time II is the second volume by watch expert Gisbert l. Brunner that addresses the specialty functions and refinements of wristwatches, highlighting the supreme discipline of the watchmaker's art. Text in English and German.

Elektrische energie geeft een overzicht van het elektrisch energiesysteem. Aan de basis hiervan ligt een wiskundige formulering van wisselstroom bij één- en driefasige systemen. Elektriciteit wordt zowel in grotere centrales als gedecentraliseerd opgewekt en bereikt de eindgebruiker via het transmissie- en distributienet. In een geliberaliseerde energiemarkt zijn hierbij verschillende partijen betrokken. Transformatoren spelen in deze netten een belangrijke rol.

In het tweede deel van dit st...

We weten de laatste tijd veel meer over hoe het brein werkt, vooral over hoe het waarneemt, hoe het beslissingen neemt en hoe het acties voorbereidt en uitvoert. Dit boek gebruikt deze nieuwe kennis. Het stelt de vraag centraal wat de werking van het brein ons leert over veilig werkgedrag en welke mogelijkheden we hebben om dat gedrag te beïnvloeden. De auteur biedt de lezer daarmee een vernieuwend inzicht in de psychologie die achter het succes of het falen van veel veiligheidsmaatregelen o...
