F hlen Sie sich im Erste-Hilfe-Fachwissen sattelfest? Geh ren Sie in Notsituationen zu den Agierenden oder beobachten Sie nur aus sicherer Entfernung? Obwohl die Erste Hilfe einen Eckpfeiler unserer Zivilisation darstellt, widmen wir ihr erschreckend wenig Zeit: In der Ausbildung als l stige Anforderung zum Erwerb eines F hrerscheins oder im Alltag, wenn es uns die Moral abverlangt. Der Autor behandelt seit Jahren kritische Themen der Ersten Hilfe in seinem Blog iblog.ikarius.net, die interessantesten Beitr ge sind nun als Buch erschienen. Darin erf hrt der Leser, dass selbst rzte ber best rzend wenig Wissen in der Ersten Hilfe verf gen, es werden aber auch ausgefallene Themen wie zum Beispiel die Patientenverf gung in der Notfallmedizin angesprochen. Au erdem sind mehrere Beitr ge dem Medikament Tamiflu gewidmet, ein ausf hrlicher Artikel behandelt atomare Unf lle in Russland und die Auswirkungen auf unsere Gesundheit. Das vorliegende Buch soll Anomalien in unserem Gesundheitswesen aufzeigen und das Interesse rund um die Laienhilfe am N chsten f rdern.

The series is devoted to the publication of monographs and high-level textbooks in mathematics, mathematical methods and their applications. Apart from covering important areas of current interest, a major aim is to make topics of an interdisciplinary nature accessible to the non-specialist. The works in this series are addressed to advanced students and researchers in mathematics and theoretical physics. In addition, it can serve as a guide for lectures and seminars on a graduate level. The series de Gruyter Studies in Mathematics was founded ca. 35 years ago by the late Professor Heinz Bauer and Professor Peter Gabriel with the aim to establish a series of monographs and textbooks of high standard, written by scholars with an international reputation presenting current fields of research in pure and applied mathematics. While the editorial board of the Studies has changed with the years, the aspirations of the Studies are unchanged. In times of rapid growth of mathematical knowledge carefully written monographs and textbooks written by experts are needed more than ever, not least to pave the way for the next generation of mathematicians. In this sense the editorial board and the publisher of the Studies are devoted to continue the Studies as a service to the mathematical community. Please submit any book proposals to Niels Jacob.

This book is intended to give an account of the theory of infi- nitely divisible statistical experiments which started from LeCam, 1974. It includes a presentation of LeCam's basic results as well as new developments in the field. The book consists of four chapters written by different authors. Chapters I, III and IV have been prepared in Bayreuth with the support of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG); Chapter II is part of its author's Habilitationsschrift, 1982 (Dortmund). For the reader's convenience, the chapters have been unified in presentation, without neglecting differences in the individual styles of writing. The authors are grateful to Dr. C. Becker for carefully reviewing the manuscript. Furthermore, acknowledgements are gratefully extended to the DFG for partly subsidizing Dr. Becker and the second author by a grant. Some special words of thanks are due to Mrs. Witzigmann, who typed the final manuscript and its predecessors with patience and skill. Universitat Bayreuth und A. Janssen Universitat Dortmund, H.
