    Note: Includes bibliographical references (p. 213-221) and index , This biography of Maj Gen Haywood S. Hansell Jr. provides an in-depth look at the life and career of one of airpower's pioneer thinkers. General Hansell's professional life was devoted to the theory and practice of strategic airpower₇the single most controversial military debate of the twentieth century. Hansell believed that wars could and should be won through precision bombing of military and industrial/commercial targets, a theory and practice that the United States Army Air Forces abandoned during World War II because of the dictates of existing technology, the demands of combat, and the fact that the passions of war swept away any moral concerns involving strategic bombing. Nevertheless, Hansell's main contribution to air doctrine was the concept that through selective targeting and an ability to place the bombs on those targets, airpower could win wars by crippling an enemy's ability to supply his forces and without causing wanton death and destruction. The author believes that the Persian Gulf War went a long way toward proving Hansell's theories to be correct

    Uniform Title: Opening science for future the science & technology of climate impact prediction
    Content: Building on concepts from Science & Technology Studies, Simon David Hirsbrunner investigates practices and infrastructures of computer modeling and science communication in climate impact research. The book characterizes how scientists calculate future climate risks in computer models and scenarios, but also how they circulate their insights and make them accessible and comprehensible to others. By discussing elements such as infrastructures, visualizations, models, software and data, the chapters show how computational modeling practices are currently changing in light of digital transformations and expectations for an open science. A number of inventive research devices are proposed to capture both the fluidity and viscosity of contemporary digital technology.

    Content: This book introduces higher-degree research students and early career academics to scientific research as occurring in the field of information systems and adjacent fields, such as computer science, management science, organization science, and software engineering. It covers the entire research process, from start to finish, placing particular emphasis on understanding aspects of research, such as motivation, modes of inquiry, theorising, planning for research, planning for publication, and ethical challenges in research. The book guides beginning researchers in their quest to do scholarly work and assists them in developing their own answers and strategies. Jan Recker explains the fundamental concepts that govern scientific research. He then moves on to introduce the basic steps: choosing research questions, developing theory, building a research design, employing research methods, and finally writing academic papers.
    Content: He also covers essentials of ethical conduct of scientific research. This second edition contains major updates on all these elements and significant expansions to several chapters. A companion website provides pedagogical materials and instructions for using this book in teaching. It focuses on the entire research process from start to finish and provides a guide not only for the methods, but for the ‘process of learning the life of a researcher.’ This well-written and easy-to-read book consists of eight chapters, divided into three parts. Each chapter ends with a list of references for further reading on each subject, totaling 200 in all. … The book is intended primarily for doctoral students and young scholars in the field of information systems. Alexei Botchkarev, Ryerson University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada Young doctoral students in particular will benefit greatly from this book [...].

    Series Statement: Populäres Mittelalter ; 2
    Content: Während sich die motivischen Parallelen zwischen Artusepen und Computerrollenspielen förmlich aufdrängen, erwartet man mediale Gemeinsamkeiten eher nicht. Doch im agonalen Handlungsschwerpunkt mittelalterlicher Texte scheint eine ludonarrative Logik auf, die mit der Interaktivität von Rollenspielen korrespondiert. Protagonist*innen werden Avatare, Lesende zu Spielenden. Totgeglaubtes mittelalterliches Erzählen kehrt wieder im neuen Medium. Ob Witcher oder Wigalois - Franziska Ascher webt ein dichtes Netz an Querverbindungen zwischen den historisch disparaten Gegenständen. Game Studies und Germanistische Mediävistik treten dabei in Dialog und profitieren voneinander.
