593,95 kr. Die international renommierte Textilkünstlerin und Forscherin Noémi Speiser beschäftigt sich seit 1948 mit textilen Techniken. In diesem Buch veröffentlicht sie ihre lange erwartete Klassifikation der textilen Techniken, welche sie in drei Hauptkategorien einteilt: "Die Arbeit mit einem Faden", "Das Verarbeiten eines Fadensatzes" und "Das Einarbeiten von Fäden in einen vorbereiteten Fadensatz". Der Fokus von Noémi Speiser liegt dabei auf dem Arbeitsprozess, also der Herstellung der textilen Struktur.Von Hand gezeichnete Illustrationen der Autorin begleiten die Systematik mit ihren zahlreichen Subkategorien und vermitteln einen profunden Überblick über die Vielfalt der textilen Techniken.

1.548,95 kr. Comprehensive work on the vegetation history of Europe. / Umfassendes Werk zur Vegetationsgeschichte Europas.2.6 million years at a glance. / 2,6 Millionen Jahre im Überblick.For students, researchers and practitioners. / Für Studierende, Forschende und die Praxis.Based on palaeoecological studies by many authors, this book gives an overview of the changing history of the European plant cover during the past 2.6 million years, characterized by numerous cold and warm periods. The period of the last 20 000 years (from the Last Glacial Maximum to the present) is presented in detail, with special emphasis on the vegetation dynamics of Europe, the history of selected woody plants, the development of lakes and bogs and the emergence of European cultural landscapes under the influence of humans over thousands of years. In the analysis of the glacial and interglacial periods, the focus is on the different vegetation developments and the progressive impoverishment of the European flora. Further important topics are the spatio-temporal patterns and causes of long-term vegetation changes, the legacies of disturbances and land use on vegetation composition, the role of palaeoecology in nature conservation and its contribution to ecology and environmental sciences. In addition to recent research results, the book provides an overview of the main palaeoecological research methods. It concludes with a summary of the history of palaeoecology and Quaternary botany.For the first time, a detailed synthesis is presented of the many findings on European vegetation dynamics, which are complex and increasingly difficult to summarize. Numerous figures and tables, many of them original, accompany the text. The bibliography includes over 3000 publications. This book is primarily intended for students, researchers and practitioners in plant ecology, palaeoecology, palaeoclimatology, forestry, agronomy, Quaternary sciences, climate sciences, biogeography, geography and archaeology.Dieses Buch, in englischer Sprache verfasst, gibt einen faszinierenden und einmaligen Überblick über die wechselvolle Geschichte der europäischen Pflanzenbedeckung der letzten 2,6 Millionen Jahre, die durch zahlreiche Kalt- und Warmzeiten gekennzeichnet ist. Dabei wird der Zeitraum der letzten 20.000 Jahre (Späteiszeit und Holozän) ausführlich dargestellt, mit besonderem Schwerpunkt auf der Vegetationsdynamik Europas, der Geschichte ausgewählter Gehölze, der Entwicklung von Seen und Mooren und der Entstehung europäischer Kulturlandschaften unter dem Einfluss des Menschen.Damit liegt auch erstmals eine detaillierte Synthese der vielen Erkenntnisse zur europäischen Vegetationsdynamik vor.Das Buch richtet sich in erster Linie an Studierende, Forschende und Praktiker:innen in Pflanzenökologie, Paläoökologie, Paläoklimatologie, Forstwirtschaft, Quartärwissenschaften, Klimawissenschaften, Biogeographie, Geographie und Archäologie.

508,95 kr. A richly illustrated book on the history of climate change in Europe.Two perspectives, one unique book: two leading experts, a historian and a climatologist, co-author a new standard work on climate history.An overview of the connection between climatic and social developments over the last 1000 years.For the first time, a historian and a climatologist with knowledge of climate history have worked closely together to create a unique book, combining climate reconstructions based on documented data in their human-historical context with temporally highly resolved analyses of climate and glaciers."Here we can clearly see how changes in climate affected the environment and people of Europe over many centuries, with important lessons for the future. A wonderfully engaging and well-documented account by two of Europe's leading climate scientists."Prof. Dr. Raymond Bradley, Director, Climate System Research Center, University of Massachusetts, Amherst (USA)"This unique book provides new fascinating insights into the interaction of past climate and society in Europe. It can be highly recommended to climatologists, historians and geoscientists, but also to students and the broad public."Prof. Dr. Rudolf Brázdil, Department of Geography, Masaryk University, Brno (Czech Republic)"The authors offer a truly interdisciplinary combination of history and science in order to explore the complex relationships of climate and society over the past millennium. They demonstrate convincingly that climate change is nothing new while at the same time revealing the character of the unprecedented climatic epoch mankind now faces."Prof. Dr. Jan de Vries, Professor Emeritus of History and Economics, University of California, Berkeley (USA)Christian Pfister (left) is Professor Emeritus of Economic, Social and Environmental History at the University of Bern, Switzerland. He was founding president of the European Society for Environmental History (ESEH). Heinz Wanner is Professor Emeritus of Geography and Climatology. He was co-chair of the international Past Global Changes (PAGES) project and a member of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Both scientists work at the renowned Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research at the University of Bern.

423,95 kr. This Manual - a reprint of the second edition of 1988 - gives a comprehensive course of instructions for oblique interlacing. Starting with the basic knowledge, it gradually advances to more complex and eventually to the highest spheres. A consistent terminology, a list of criteria for classification and an original system of representation will help the theorist in his quest for analytical understanding.The practitioner will find a view over the traditional Braiding Methods, several of them newly discovered in the author's lifelong research."... It is a veritable mine of information for those who just want to know methods, plus a rigorous intellectual framework into which any structure and any technique can be logically fitted. It is a real creation - something which did not exist until you came along and made it. You have both explored a strange country and provided a fool-proof way for those who want to follow."A personal letter from Peter Collingwood to the author, in 1983
