IMPORTANT NOTES

The downloadable pdf-version differs slightly from the print-version.

The pdf-version is as much as possible 'cleaned' from typos, and the text has undergone only minor editing.

The print version is slightly shorter (315 pages), than the pdf-version here (317 pages).

Therefore you might find a deviation of max. 2 pages concerning page numbers in

references to my dissertation elsewhere. The search function of your pdf-reader might assist in these cases.

The total number of footnotes remained the same in both versions.

However:

In the print footnote 9 had been added by mistake and left empty, and therefore it has been removed from the downloadable pdf-version.

Therefore the previous footnotes 10–23 have become the new footnotes 9–22 in the present pdf-version, and a new footnote 23 has been added. From footnote 24 the numbering is the same in both versions.

Reviews
