Den danske deltagelse ved OL 2024 i Paris blev et uforglemmeligt kapitel i Danmarks sportslige historie. Ikke kun på grund af de imponerende medaljer, der blev hængtom halsen på vores dygtige atleter, men også på grund af den særlige ånd, som de danske deltagere bragte med sig.OL handler nemlig om meget mere end at stå øverst på podiet; det handler om sammenhold, kampgejst, og kærligheden til det rød-hvide flag, som vores atleter medstolthed bar ind på de olympiske arenaer.Denne bog er en hyldest til dem, der i Paris viste verden, hvad dansk sammenhold og sportsånd betyder. Den fortæller om både sejre og nederlag, om smil og tårer, og om de oplevelser, der binder os sammen - som mennesker, som atleter, og som nation.

En fodboldkamp som omdrejning for verdenshistorienDen eneste gang, Vesttyskland og Østtyskland mødtes i en fodboldkamp, var under VM-slutrunden i Vesttyskland 22. juni 1974.Kampen fandt sted midt i verdenshistorien. Få uger forinden var den vesttyske Bundeskanzler, Willy Brandt, trådt tilbage som følge af en spionskandale. Fængslerne i Vesttyskland husede medlemmer af Rote Armé Fraktion, der havde udøvet terrorvirksomhed. Og ned gennem de to tysklande dannede Muren den konkrete grænse mellem Østen og Vesten.Den Kolde Krig var i fuld gang, og sport blev brugt af statslederne som reklame for ideologierne. Våbenkapløbet fandt både sted på fodboldbaner og stadioner, og det materialiserede sig i disse år også med opstilling af atomvåben mange steder på europæisk jord.Samtidig var VM 1974 en fodboldslutrunde, der markerede mange nybrud: Kampene blev sendt direkte på tv i farver og med langsom gengivelse af scoringer og kritiske situationer. Samtidig var det slut med Brasiliens sportslige dominans i fodboldspillet, som nu blev præget af blandt andet hjemmeholdet Vesttyskland med stjerner som Franz Beckenbauer, Gerd Müller og Günter Netzer.Den tyske journalist og forfatter Ronald Reng har skrevet en medrivende beretning med udgangspunkt i fodboldkampen – men bogen fortæller om et splittet Tyskland og et Europa, der var præget af kold krig, spionage, terrorisme og stigende vækst. Alt dette indkapsler forfatteren på fornem vis i en samtidshistorisk fortælling på højeste niveau.Ronald Reng lader en lang række tilsyneladende bipersoner fortælle historien. Han kalder dem tidsvidner, der fylder historien med liv.”1974 – Et tysk møde” beskriver de modsætninger i de tyske befolkninger, der for en enkelt aftens vedkommende i Hamburg midt i politisk højspændte måneder og år bragte borgerne sammen både i ånden, på tribunerne og i et fællesskab.Bogen har et særligt dansk forord af Tysklands-ekspert og fodboldfan Lykke Friis, der er direktør for Tænketanken Europa. Og den er oversat og bearbejdet til dansk af journalist og forfatter Lars Werge.

This reprint contains a collection of articles showing how the environmental processes governing the Earth's system can induce the formation of sudden and severe natural phenomena as their most violent expression. Their impact is unevenly distributed over the Earth's surface because of the presence of complex overlapping global or local endogenous and exogenous factors. Climate change and anthropogenic forcing can directly or indirectly exacerbate most of the occurrences at different spatial and temporal scales in the tropospheric area. When such phenomena interact directly with inhabited areas and society, different risk scenarios can develop even for human life itself. The degree of safety in a community is determined by the differential exposure to these events and the level of preparation based on awareness and perception. The social development and uncontrolled (or poorly regulated) spatial growth of human activities via the consumption of soil and natural resources have further contributed to creating vulnerability, increasing the challenges of conscious societies in coping with severe natural processes and their effects. As a whole, all the papers collected here highlight how the protection of territory, in its social and environmental complexity, is ultimately a key element for the pursuit of sustainable development.

The 29th International Conference on Amorphous and Nanocrystalline Semiconductors (ICANS 29) served as a continuation of the biennial conference that has been held since 1965. ICANS 29 was held from 23 to 26 August at the campus of Nanjing University-a great venue for global academic researchers, industrial partners, and policymakers to come together and share their latest progress, breakthroughs, and new ideas on a wide range of topics in the fields of amorphous and nanocrystalline thin films and other nanostructured materials, as well as device applications.It was the first time that this prestigious event was held in China, and it provided the perfect opportunity for young Chinese researchers and students to participate more actively in academic exchange as a part of the conference and become familiarized with the latest developments in the fields in which they work. And despite a one-year delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic, ICANS 29 still attracted more than 300 paper submissions from 11 countries, including both on-site and virtual oral and poster presentations, which made it truly both a global and hybrid conference.

The worldwide spread of COVID-19 in 2020 posed severe challenges in the realm of public health and also resulted in social limitations, such as on access to parks and other public open spaces. The restrictions on movement and lockdowns that were imposed by many governments had profound implications, altering not only the frequency and purpose of urban green space visitation, but also the social and psychological effects which such green spaces had on citizens. This Special Issue gathered recent studies on how the need, perception and usage of green spaces have been impacted by the pandemic and the restriction measures, in order to provide insights and guidance for administrators and policy makers to manage future crisis situations. A total of 15 papers examine the effects of COVID-19 in different countries and even continents, offering various research methodologies and reflections on the role of urban green spaces in daily life. One of the recurring themes is that there is a general need to guarantee equitable access to these valuable resources, especially in times of societal disruption. The opportunities for relaxation, social interaction and spiritual regeneration are indeed important benefits that such natural amenities can offer, but they are very much dependent on the design and particular qualities of the space, which may decisively influence the level of satisfaction and engagement by users. It is our hope that by encouraging a communal discussion on the planning and management of urban green spaces, we can increase the resilience of both our cities and the natural environment on which they depend.

This book investigates in detail the mathematical methods and computation methods in efficient solution of some open nonlinear seepage flow problems involved in engineering problems. Developed engineering technologies and some relevant practical field applications are also provided. The introduced open nonlinear problems include nonlinear quadratic pressure gradient term problem, compressible gas seepage flow problem and low-velocity non-Darcy seepage flow problem. Studies on these nonlinear seepage flow problems have attracted engineers and scientists from various disciplines, such as geo-energy engineering, civil and environmental engineering, fluid mechanics, applied mathematics and computation. In particular, the book systematically establishes a fundamental theory for a strongly nonlinear problem of low-velocity non-Darcy seepage flow from a new perspective of moving boundary, while emphasizing the usage of mathematical linearization transformation methods and computational methods into the analytical and numerical solution of the strongly nonlinear partial differential equations. Sufficient knowledge of mathematics is always introduced ahead of model solution to assist readers. And the procedure of strict formula deduction in the model solution process is provided in detail. High-solution figures and tables from model solution are rich in the book. Therefore, it is very helpful for the readers to master the nonlinear model solution methods and engineering technologies. The book is intended for upper undergraduate students and graduate students who are interested in engineering technology, fluid mechanics and applied mathematics, researchers and engineers working on geo-energy science and engineering and field applications.

A timely collection of essays on the pressing possibilities and risks of gene-editing technology.Scientists and genetic engineers are becoming increasingly adept at editing the human genome. How far can--and should--they go in editing future generations? In The Promise and Peril of CRISPR, editor Neal Baer brings together a timely collection of essays by influential bioethicists, philosophers, and geneticists to explore the moral, ethical, and policy challenges posed by CRISPR technology.We are at a technological and ethical crossroads in grappling with the impacts of genetic editing. Gene-editing technology holds the promise of curing more than 7,000 known genetic diseases. Yet with that promise comes the peril of using CRISPR to edit the human genome, which could not only lead to manipulating human evolution, but also to creating and releasing pathogens capable of wreaking havoc on human, animal, and plant life. Although CRISPR has already cured several genetic diseases, it could also be used to design biological weapons or to edit the embryos of people who can afford to purchase genetic "enhancements" for their children. What role can and should the public play in discussing the far-reaching implications of gene editing? What oversights should be put in place to prevent a rogue scientist from engineering another baby - as was recently done with twins in China?Essay contributors offer informed predictions and guidelines for how the uses of CRISPR today will affect life in the future. Decisions we make now may have unpredictable consequences for future generations. For anyone concerned about the uses and potential abuses of gene editing, these essays provide a critical and comprehensive discussion of the central issues surrounding CRISPR technology.
