I en villa vid Nilen har arkitekten Hussein avskärmat sig från världen. Hussein som är en antagonist av den gamla skolan, orädd för att uttrycka sig, har sett hur hans värld sakta förfaller. Kvar i sitt hem, balanserar han vardagen i sällskap med ett gäng excentriker samtidigt som han döljer sin sjukdom. Utan att inse hinner dock Husseins förflutna ikapp, honom när hans syster och hennes barnbarn

This chapter addresses identity constructions in the context of consultant-client relations in consultancy work. The focus is on how consultants and client managers use the image of each other as negative mirrors of themselves, making collaboration tension-ridden and complicated. In particular we emphasize identity dynamics around the attribution of credit and blame, drawing attention to the evalu

Den här guiden ger lokala politiker och tjänstemän ett processorienterat verktyg för att stärka förankringen (integrationen) av klimatanpassning i relevanta sektorer av kommunal verksamhet, med syftet att främja en hållbar stadsutveckling. Den kan därför ses som ett instrument för att vägleda en integrationsprocess. Guiden presenterar systematiskt de nivåer och områden där förankring av klimatanpaThis guideline offers local government officers and local politicians process-oriented assistance for integrating climate change adaptation within relevant sectors of municipal administration with the aim of fostering sustainable urban development. It is thus an instrument to support leadership of this integration process. The levels and areas where integration of climate change adaptation is rele

The narrative sequence is basic to language, both spoken and written, and is used as a multitask resource in familiar as well as formal interactions. In this article the narrative sequence is approached from a somewhat particular angle. I have chosen to focus on those narratives where the subjects concern cultural and historical events in exolingual conversations in French. The article then discus

The electronic and molecular structures of an electrochemically reduced and oxidized triarylamine layer (((3-ethyl(p-N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl)amino)propyl-1-phosphonic acid) adsorbed on a nanocrystalline TiO2 film have been investigated. Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) measurements on electrochemically prepared surfaces and density functional theory (DFT) calculations for the free triarylamine mo

In previous work, McCune (1995, 2008) and Zlatev (2007, 2013) recognized the importance of reviving a coherent cross-domain theory of semiotic development. Despite inevitable differences, the two approaches converge on their explanations of development across the first three years. Both recognized representational ability as a critical feature at the transition to language and both emphasized the

Diode laser absorption measurements obtained with two-tone frequency-modulation spectroscopy (TTFMS) are combined with tomography to produce spatially resolved quantitative images of fluid flows. The high sensitivity, good accuracy, and high stability of TTFMS absorption measurements permit optical-absorption tomography to be performed with low noise on extremely weakly absorbing objects. The meth

The availability of three-dimensional structures of proteins has provided enormous insight into the detailed molecular machinery of the living cell. Since the late 1950s and early 1960s, experimental methods for deriving protein structures have contributed more than 30,000 entries to the Protein Data Bank, representing the collected knowledge of protein and other macromolecular structures. However
