Sommario/riassunto |
|
From crocodiles and penguins to seals and whales, this comprehensive and authoritative synthesis explores the function and evolution of sensory systems in animals whose ancestors lived on land. Together, the contributors explore the dramatic transformation of smell, taste, sight, hearing, balance, mechanoreception, magnetoreception, and electroreception that occurred as lineages of amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals returned to aquatic environments. Each chapter integrates data from fields including sensory physiology, anatomy, paleontology, and neurobiology. A one-stop source for information on the sense organs of secondarily aquatic tetrapods, Sensory Evolution on the Threshold sheds new light on both the evolution of aquatic vertebrates and the sensory biology of their astonishing transition. |

Sommario/riassunto |

Die Kontroverse um den NATO-Doppelbeschluss und die Nachrüstung erschütterte die westdeutsche Gesellschaft in den 1980er Jahren. |

Besonders schwer traf sie die Sozialdemokraten, die gespalten waren zwischen der Politik ihres Kanzlers Helmut Schmidt und der Friedensbewegung. Jan Hansen untersucht diesen Nachrüstungsstreit auf breiter Quellenbasis. Er zeigt, dass Teile der SPD den Kalten Krieg für anachronistisch hielten, lange bevor er tatsächlich an sein Ende kam. Auf den Prüfstand gelangte dabei nicht nur der ideologische Gegensatz zwischen den Supermächten, sondern auch der sozialdemokratische Politikbegriff. Der Konflikt veränderte die SPD und führte dazu, dass sich die Partei stärker als zuvor gesamtgesellschaftlichen Transformationen anpasste. |
The controversy about NATO’s Double-Track Decision unsettled West German society in the 1980s. It especially affected the Social Democrats, who were split between the policies of their Chancellor and the peace movement. The author draws on extensive sources to examine the dispute over the deployment of additional US atomic weapons. He argues that elements of the SPD viewed the Cold War as anachronistic long before it had actually come to an end. |
