The Capitalist Personality: Face-to-Face Sociality and Economic Change in the Post-Communist World

Modern capitalism favors values that undermine our face-to-face bonds with friends and family members. Focusing on the post-communist world, and comparing it to more "developed" societies, this book reveals the mixed effects of capitalist culture on interpersonal relationships. While most observers blame the egoism and asocial behavior found in new free-market societies on their communist pasts, t

A low complexity DDS IC for FM-UWB applications

This paper presents a low-complexity DDS IC for subcarrier processing in an FM-UWB transceiver. The IC implements data pre-filtering and FSK generation for the transmitter and quadrature LO signals generation for the receiver. The use of DDS techniques yields accurate signals whose parameters can be easily adjusted to accommodate a wide range of sub-carrier frequencies and bit rates. An interpolat

Fruar och mamseller. Kvinnor inom sydsvensk borgerlighet 1790-1870

This dissertation is an analysis of the culture and lifestyle of women in the middle classes in small towns in southern Sweden between 1790 and 1870, from a gender perspective. The study builds on local material from Lund, Karlshamn and Kristianstad, and is principally made up of the private letters and diaries of a large number of people. The thesis attempts to shed light on relationships, values

Cervicothalamic tract termination and its cortical connections: anatomical studies in cats and ferrets

The termination and cortical connections of the cervicothalamic tract (CTT) were studied by neuroanatomical tract tracing techniques in cats and ferrets. After injections of wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase conjugate or biotinylated dextran amine (BDA) into the cat lateral cervical nucleus (LCN), the most abundant CTT termination is present in the ventral posterior lateral nucleus (VPL

Den frivilliga döden : Samhällets hantering av självmord i historiskt perspektiv

Få fenomen har varit föremål för så skiftande bedömningar genom historien som självmordet, den frivilliga döden. Sättet att hantera självmordsproblematiken speglar normer, värderingar och attityder, kort sagt den världsbild som präglar ett samhälle. I denna bok belyses självmordsproblematiken i ett historiskt perspektiv med fokus på det tidigmoderna svenska samhället. Hur var den mentala miljö utf

On channel estimators for iterative CDMA multiuser receivers in flat Rayleigh fading

In this work we compare channel estimation algorithms for use in an iterative CDMA receiver in a block fading environment. The receiver consists of a soft multiuser data estimator, a bank of single user decoders, and a multiuser channel estimator. The multiuser data estimator is implemented as parallel interference canceler with unconditional post-MMSE filtering (PIC-MMSE) and the decoder is a sof
