Principles of European Trust Law
David J. Hayton; S.C.J.J. Kortmann
Kluwer Law International
1999
sidottu
Since the ratification of the Hague Trust Convention by the Netherlands and Italy, the question of whether civil law countries ought to have a trust or a legal institution resembling it has gained importance. The Business and Law Research Centre at the University of Nijmegen founded an international working group of experts in the field of trust law in 1996. This group developed eight principles of European trust law designed to facilitate transactions within European jurisdictions, to enable countries to recognise the potential for the development of new domestic legal concepts and to provide guidance as to how these developments can be framed in different legal and socio-economic contexts. This book provides a detailed analysis of these principles both from a common law and a civil law point of view. In particular, the national reports give an overview of the current law relating to trusts and fiduciary relationships and, in the case of civil law jurisdictions, whether the trust concept can be incorporated in the domestic legal systems on the basis of the eight principles.
This book is the first review of the scientific literature on the Africanized honey bee. The African subspecies Apis mellifera scutellata (formerly adansonii) was introduced into South America in 1956 with the intent of cross-breeding it with other subspecies of bees already present in Brazil to obtain a honey bee better adapted to tropical conditions. Shortly after its introduction, some of the African stock became established in the feral population around Sao Paulo, Brazil, and spread rapidly through Brazil. It has since migrated through most of the neotropics, displacing and/or hybridizing with the previously imported subspecies of honey bees. Africanized bees have been stereotype d as having high rates of swarming and absconding, rapid colony growth, and fierce defensivebehavior. As they have spread through the neotropics they have interacted with the human population, disrupting apiculture and urban activities when high levels of defensive behavior are expressed.
The introduction and spread of the African honey bee and its hybrids in the New World has received substantial public and scientific attention. In this book the available scientific information concerning the identification, biology, and management of the bee is reviewed. This book is particularly timely, given the recent arrival of the African bee

Effects of Parental Incarceration on Children
Joseph Murray; Catrien C.J.H. Bijleveld; David Farrington; Rolf Loeber
American Psychological Association
2014
sidottu
Children are the hidden victims of the prison boom. Parental incarceration can cause profound emotional and practical difficulties for them as they strive to cope with separation, financial loss, stigma, and highly restrained contact with their loved ones. This book takes a hard look at possible long-lasting effects of parental incarceration on children in the United States, England, Sweden and the Netherlands. Four major studies of some 20,000 children, followed from childhood to adulthood, demonstrate the far-reaching consequences that parental incarceration can have for children in later years. The worst effects occur in social contexts characterized by harsh penal attitudes and restrictive prison practices. These cross-national differences illustrate the need for reforms to better protect this vulnerable population.

Irreduzibilität des Bewusstseins und dessen Implikationen bei David J. Chalmers und Daniel C. Dennett

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2021 im Fachbereich Philosophie - Philosophie der Gegenwart, Note: 1,7, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit t M nchen (Fakult t f r Philosophie), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Frage nach dem Wesen des Bewusstseins ist eine der zentralen und auch verbl ffendsten Fragen der Menschheit, die wahrscheinlich seit der Zeit gestellt wird, als der Geist im Menschen erwacht ist und nach Erkenntnis rief. In der t glichen Erfahrung ist das Bewusstsein allgegenw rtig und subjektive Erlebnisse sind auf so einer direkten Art und Weise gegeben, dass niemand unter normalen Umst nden deren Existenz in Frage stellen w rde. Die Neurowissenschaften versuchen seit langer Zeit erfolglos, ein Korrelat des Bewusstseins im menschlichen Gehirn zu finden, und es ist fraglich, ob das jemals gelingen kann. Ren Descartes, sah das Bewusstsein gar nicht im Gehirn verortet, sondern postulierte eine res cogitans, eine eigene Substanz des denkenden Geistes, unabh ngig von der res extensa, der K rperwelt. David J. Chalmers, mit dessen 1996 erschienenen Buch "The Conscious Mind - In Search of a Fundamental Theory" diese Bachelorarbeit sich haupts chlich besch ftigt, fragt nach dem subjektiven Charakter des Bewusstseins und dessen Status in einer vor allem naturwissenschaftlich, physikalisch gepr gten Welt. Im Verlauf dieser Arbeit wird sich zeigen, dass die Existenz des Bewusstseins von Chalmers nicht in Frage gestellt wird, aber es schwierig ist, Bewusstsein zu fassen, da es eben nicht aus der Perspektive der dritten Person erkl rt werden kann. Mit Hilfe u. a. des Zombiearguments zeigt er, dass consciousness nicht global logisch ber dem Physikalischen superveniert, nicht auf das Physikalische reduzierbar ist und das der Physikalismus falsch ist. Er beschreibt einen "Naturalistic dualism", einen speziellen Eigenschaftsdualismus der consciousness als grundlegendes Prinzip "over and above" des Physikalismus betrachtet. Die Darstellung von David Chalmers negativer Theorie im Te

Born during the infant years of the Texas Republic, C. C. Slaughter (1837-1919) participated in the development of the southwestern cattle industry from its pioneer stages to the modern era. Trail driver, Texas Ranger, banker, philanthropist, and cattleman, he was one of America's most famous ranchers. David J. Murrah's biography of Slaughter, now available in paperback, still stands as the definitive account of this well-known figure in Southwest history.A pioneer in West Texas ranching, Slaughter increased his holdings from 1877 to 1905 to include more than half a million acres of land and 40,000 head of cattle. At one time ""Slaughter country"" stretched from a few miles north of Big Spring, Texas, northwestward two hundred miles to the New Mexico border west of Lubbock. His father, brothers, and sons rode the crest of his popularity, and the Slaughter name became a household word in the Southwest. In 1873 - almost ten years before the ""beef bonanza"" on the open range made many Texas cattlemen rich - C. C. Slaughter was heralded by a Dallas newspaper as the ""Cattle King of Texas."" Among the first of the West Texas cattlemen to make extensive use of barbed wire and windmills, Slaughter introduced new and improved cattle breeds to West Texas.In his later years, greatly influenced by Baptist minister George W. Truett of Dallas, Slaughter became a major contributor to the work of the Baptist church in Texas. He substantially supported Baylor University and was a cofounder of the Baptist Education Commission and Dallas's Baylor Hospital.Slaughter also cofounded the Texas Cattle Raisers' Association (1877) and the American National Bank of Dallas (1884), which through subsequent mergers became the First National Bank. His banking career made him one of Dallas's leading citizens, and at times he owned vast holdings of downtown Dallas property.

Information Theory, Inference and Learning Algorithms
MacKay David J. C.
Cambridge University Press
2003
sidottu
Information theory and inference, taught together in this exciting textbook, lie at the heart of many important areas of modern technology - communication, signal processing, data mining, machine learning, pattern recognition, computational neuroscience, bioinformatics and cryptography. The book introduces theory in tandem with applications. Information theory is taught alongside practical communication systems such as arithmetic coding for data compression and sparse-graph codes for error-correction. Inference techniques, including message-passing algorithms, Monte Carlo methods and variational approximations, are developed alongside applications to clustering, convolutional codes, independent component analysis, and neural networks. Uniquely, the book covers state-of-the-art error-correcting codes, including low-density-parity-check codes, turbo codes, and digital fountain codes - the twenty-first-century standards for satellite communications, disk drives, and data broadcast. Richly illustrated, filled with worked examples and over 400 exercises, some with detailed solutions, the book is ideal for self-learning, and for undergraduate or graduate courses. It also provides an unparalleled entry point for professionals in areas as diverse as computational biology, financial engineering and machine learning.
