Co-published with the Waterloo Centre for German Studies For centuries, large numbers of German-speaking people have emigrated from settlements in Europe to other countries and continents. In German Diasporic Identity, Migration, and Loss , more than forty international contributors describe and discuss aspects of the history, language, and culture of these migrant groups, individuals, and their descendants. Part I focuses on identity, with essays exploring the connections among language, politics, and the construction of histories―national, familial, and personal―in German-speaking diasporic communities around the world. Part II deals with migration, examining such issues as German migrants in postwar Britain, German refugees and forced migration, and the immigrant as a fictional character, among others. Part III examines the idea of loss in diasporic experience with essays on nationalization, language change or loss, and the reshaping of cultural identity. Essays are revised versions of papers presented at an international conference held at the University of Waterloo in August 2006, organized by the Waterloo Centre for German Studies, and reflect the multidisciplinarity and the global perspective of this field of study.

Dieses essential vermittelt ein grundlegendes Verständnis des Verdampfungsprozesses sowie des zugehörigen Gleichgewichtes, welches unerlässlich für die Beschreibung vieler Vorgänge in Natur und Technik ist. Die Autoren bieten Studierenden, Anwendern in der Laborpraxis sowie interessierten Lesern einen kompakten Überblick über die theoretischen Hintergründe des Verdampfens sowie die experimentelle Bestimmung von Dampfdruck und Verdampfungsenthalpie. Die so erworbenen Grundkenntnisse werden dazu genutzt, Beispiele von Verdampfungsgleichgewichten anschaulich zu erklären. Zum Selbststudium wird dem Leser eine Auswahl an Übungsaufgaben an die Hand gegeben.
