Joins and Intersections
Dedicated to the memory of Wolfgang Classical Intersection Theory (see for example Wei! [Wei]) treats the case of proper intersections, where geometrical objects (usually subvarieties of a non singular variety) intersect with the expected dimension. In 1984, two books appeared which surveyed and developed work by the individual authors, co workers and others on a refined version of Intersection Theory, treating the case of possibly improper intersections, where the intersection could have ex cess dimension. The first, by W. Fulton [Full] (recently revised in updated form), used a geometrical theory of deformation to the normal cone, more specifically, deformation to the normal bundle followed by moving the zero section to make the intersection proper; this theory was due to the author together with R. MacPherson and worked generally for intersections on algeb raic manifolds. It represents nowadays the standard approach to Intersection Theory. The second, by W. Vogel [Vogl], employed an algebraic approach to inter sections; although restricted to intersections in projective space it produced an intersection cycle by a simple and natural algorithm, thus leading to a Bezout theorem for improper intersections. It was developed together with J. Stiickrad and involved a refined version of the classical technique ofreduc tion to the diagonal: here one starts with the join variety and intersects with successive hyperplanes in general position, laying aside components which fall into the diagonal and intersecting the residual scheme with the next hyperplane; since all the hyperplanes intersect in the diagonal, the process terminates.

Borcherds Products on O(2,l) and Chern Classes of Heegner Divisors
Around 1994 R. Borcherds discovered a new type of meromorphic modular form on the orthogonal group $O(2,n)$. These "Borcherds products" have infinite product expansions analogous to the Dedekind eta-function. They arise as multiplicative liftings of elliptic modular forms on $(SL)2(R)$. The fact that the zeros and poles of Borcherds products are explicitly given in terms of Heegner divisors makes them interesting for geometric and arithmetic applications. In the present text the Borcherds' construction is extended to Maass wave forms and is used to study the Chern classes of Heegner divisors. A converse theorem for the lifting is proved.

Der makroskopische Aufbau des Großhirns
Der Mensch ist in der Lage, durch seine geistige Leistungsfähigkeit seine Umwelt umzugestalten. Das können die Tiere nicht. Das Organ, das für die geistige Leistungsfähigkeit verantwortlich ist, ist das Gehirn. Es wäre daher zu erwarten, daß das menschliche Gehirn eine deutliche Sonderstellung innerhalb der Lebewesen besitzt. Bisher war es jedoch nicht möglich, morphologische Tat bestände im Gesamtaufbau des Gehirns zu finden, die die gegenüber den Tieren besonders hohe Intelligenz des Menschen hätten voll befriedigend erklären können. Um dies deutlich zu machen, sind in Tabelle 1 die Körper- und Gehirn gewichte von Säugetieren zusammengestellt, die die Situation exemplarisch be leuchten. Wir können uns auf die Säuger beschränken, da nur bei ihnen eine für höhere tierische Intelligenz entsprechende Gehirnentwicklung stattgefunden hat, und nur bei ihnen eine echte neocorticale Großhirnrinde entwickelt wurde. Für den Vergleich sind solche Arten ausgewählt worden, die innerhalb aller Mammalia oder ihrer Familien die größten und kleinsten Gehirne besitzen. Der Mensch hat mit einem mittleren Gehirngewicht von 1300--1500 g zwar ein großes Gehirn, aber es gibt Lebewesen, die größere Gehirne aufweisen. Von den land lebenden Tieren hat der Elefant ein etwa 3--4mal größeres Gehirn. Bei den \Valen gibt es eine ganze Anzahl von Arten, die ein höheres Gehirngewicht als der Mensch besitzen. Das größte Gehirn aller Lebewesen ist beim Pottwal zu finden; es erreicht knapp 10 kg (Jacobs und Jensen, 1964; Gihr und Pilleri, 1969b).

HP Phenomenon
The HP Phenomenon tells the story of how Hewlett-Packard innovated and transformed itself six times while most of its competitors were unable to make even one significant transformation. It describes those transformations, how they started, how they prevailed, and how the challenges along the way were overcome—reinforcing David Packard's observation that "change and conflict are the only real constants." The book also details the philosophies, practices, and organizational principles that enabled this unprecedented sequence of innovations and transformations. In so doing, the authors capture the elusive "spirit of innovation" required to fuel growth and transformation in all companies: innovation that is customer-centered, contribution-driven, and growth-focused. The corporate ethos described in this book—with its emphasis on bottom-up innovation and sufficient flexibility to see results brought to the marketplace and brought alive inside the company—is radically different from current management "best practice." Thus, while primarily a history of Hewlett-Packard, The HP Phenomenon also holds profound lessons for engineers, managers, and organizational leaders hoping to transform their own organizations."At last! The 'HP Way, that most famous of all corporate philosophies, has taken on an almost mythical status. But how did it really work? How did it make Hewlett-Packard the fastest growing, most admired, large company of the last half-century? Now, two important figures in HP's history, Chuck House and Raymond Price, have finally given us the whole story. The HP Phenomenon is the book we've been waiting for: the definitive treatise on how Bill and Dave ran their legendary company, day to day and year to year. It should be a core text for generations of young entrepreneurs and managers, a roadmap to building a great enterprise."—Michael S. Malone, author of Bill & Dave: How Hewlett and Packard Built the World's Greatest Company

Die Experimentelle Psychose
Die vorliegende Monographie ist das Ergebnis einer fünf jährigen klinischen Forschungsarbeit. Das große, auf über tausend Einzelsitzungen angewachsene Mate rial konnte allein deshalb gewonnen werden, weil die psychotoxischen Versuche überwiegend im Dienst einer Therapie standen. Ihre Anfänge reichen in meine Assi stentenzeit an der Universitäts-Nervenklinik Marburg im Jahr 1956 zurück. Meinem damaligen Chef, Herrn Prof. ViIlinger t, und Herrn Prof. Stutte schulde ich beson deren Dank für die Förderung der unter den räumlich beengten Verhältnissen der Klinik und ihren Dependencen durchgeführten Versuche. Sie konnten mit Unter stützung von Herrn Prof. Conrad t an der Göttinger Klinik in breiterem Rahmen fortgesetzt werden. Die Empirie der steuerbaren Psychose beim Gesunden forderte besondere psycho pathologische Betrachtungsweisen. Die daseinsanalytische Forschungsrichtung, für die ich nicht zuständig bin, wurde dabei ausgeklammert. Vielmehr war es mein Anliegen, die experimentelle Psychose im Rückgriff auf eine heute mehr in den Hintergrund getretene Tradition wieder psychologisch zu untersuchen. Dabei habe ich mich be müht, gewisse allgemeingültige und nachprüfbare Gesetzlichkeiten, zumindest für die toxische Psychose, herauszuarbeiten. Die notwendig anzustellenden methoden kritischen Erörterungen entwickelten sich aus Diskussionen mit dem Philosophen Dr. J. Finkeldei, dem ich für seine Anregungen und die Durchsicht des Abschnittes "Methodischer Ansatz" herzlich danke. Das Gebiet der experimentellen Psychose hat sich in den letzten Jahren, besonders im Ausland, in stürmischer Entwicklung ausgeweitet und kann nur noch schwer in allen seinen Teilen überblickt werden. Die ältere und jüngere Weltliteratur habe ich so weit berücksichtigt, als sie einer umfassenden psychopathologischen Untersuchung mit Zentrierung auf die Person dient.

Cooperative Phenomena
The study of cooperative phenomena is one of the dominant features of contem porary physics. Outside physics it has grown to a huge field of interdisciplinary investigation, involving all the natural sciences from physics via biology to socio logy. Yet, during the first few decades following the advent of quantum theory, the pursuit of the single particle or the single atom, as the case may be, has been so fascinating that only a small number of physicists have stressed the importance of collective behaviour. One outstanding personality among these few is Professor HERBERT FROHLICH. He has made an enormous contribution to the modern concept of cooperativity and has stimulated a whole generation of physicists. Therefore, it seemed to the editors very appropriate to dedicate a volume on "cooperative phenomena" to him on the occasion of his official retirement from his university duties. Nevertheless, in the course of carrying out this project, the editors have been somewhat amazed to find that they have covered the essentials of contemporary physics and its im pact on other scientific disciplines. It thus becomes clear how much HERBERT FROHLICH has inspired research workers and has acted as a stimulating discussion partner for others. FROHLICH is one of those exceptional scientists who have wor ked in quite different fields and given them an enormous impetus. Unfortunately, the number of scientists of such distinctive personality has been decreasing in our century.

H. H. Bennett, Photographer
'My energies for near a lifetime have been used almost entirely to win such prominence as I could in outdoor photography.'--H. H. Bennett Henry Hamilton Bennett (1843-1908) became a celebrated photographer in the half-century following the American Civil War. Bennett is admired for his superb depictions of dramatic landscapes of the Dells of the Wisconsin River and also for his many technical innovations in photography, including a stop-action shutter and a revolving solar printing house that is now housed at the Smithsonian Institution. With his instantaneous shutter, he gained recognition for his striking images of moving subjects, such as lumber raftsmen shooting the river rapids and his son Ashley leaping in midair from a bluff to the craggy pillar of Stand Rock. Less well-known are Bennett's splendid urban photographs of nineteenth-century Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul. This engaging biography of H. H. Bennett tells his life story, illustrated throughout with his remarkable photographs, some of them rarely viewed before. It draws on the photographer's own letters and journals, along with other family documents, to portray the sweep of his career and personal life. An important figure in the history of photography, he also contributed to the growth of American tourism: his nationally distributed stereoscopic views of Dells rock formations and his portraits of local Ho-Chunk Indians played a significant role in creating the Wisconsin Dells as the popular tourist destination it is today. Despite personal challenges--a crippling Civil War injury, the death of his first wife, and continual financial worries--Bennett produced an extensive portfolio that captures the midwestern culture of his time. He accepted commissions in the 1890s to document Chicago's modern skyscrapers, grand residences of Milwaukee's entrepreneurs and sailing ships in its harbor, enormous scenic panoramas along the routes of Wisconsin railroads, and sparkling ice palaces lit by fireworks at the St. Paul Winter Carnival.
