(Das Streben nach praktisch verwertbarem Organisationswiss...)
Das Streben nach praktisch verwertbarem Organisationswissen hat in jung- ster Zeit zur Entwicklung von Ansatzen oder Konzepten gefuhrt, die auf den Merkmalen eines sukzessiven Gestaltungsprozesses und eines totalen Ge- staltungsumfanges basieren. Aus der fehlenden Angabe der Anwendungs- bedingungen in den klassischen Aussagen und der einseitigen Humanorien- tierung neoklassischer Aussagen wird gelernt. Das Organisationsproblem liegt in der Feststellung der Zielrelevanz von Organisationsmanahmen unter Berucksichtigung der geltenden Bedingungskonstellationen. Losungsmoglich- keiten fur die mit dieser Entscheidungsaufgabe verbundenen Probleme und hieraus resultierende Gestaltungsaussagen sind Gegenstand dieses Beitrags. Die ursprungliche Fassung dieser Arbeit war in Aufsatzform konzipiert. Die hieraus resultierende knappe Darstellung wurde im wesentlichen beibe- halten. Der Grund liegt in unseren Anliegen, Einblick, uberblick und Anre- gungen zur Organisationsgestaltung zu geben: dem Praktiker eine gedrangte Ubersicht uber Problemhilfen; dem Wissenschaftler eine Standortbestimmung zur Mithilfe bei der Losung anstehender Organisationsprobleme. Fur die Mitarbeit bei der Abfassung der Literaturubersicht uber die neueren Ansatze zur Organisationsgestaltung mochten wir uns bei Herrn Dipl.-Oec. Helmut Stadler bedanken.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

(Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are com...)
Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Friedrich Hoffmann," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Friedrich Hoffmann in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Friedrich Hoffmann when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Friedrich Hoffmann, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain.

Friedrich Hoffmann was born on 19 February 1660 in Halle.
In 1678 the younger Hoffmann went to Jena, where he studied medicine for two years under the direction of Wedel.
His interest in chemistry lured him for a short period to Erfurt, where he attended the chemistry lectures of Cramer.
In 1681 he received his M. D. from the University of Jena and was allowed to teach there.
But the subsequent success of Hoffmann’s chemistry lectures reportedly provoked the jealously of Jena’s senior faculty, and the young physician soon left for the city of Minden, where his brother-in-law provided him with an official, salaried position.
Given the privilege of selecting a second professor of medicine, he brought to the university in 1694 a former fellow student at Jena, Georg Stahl, originator of the phlogiston theory.
In 1709 Hoffmann was called to Berlin by Frederick I to become the ruler’s personal physician.
In 1734 Hoffmann was again summoned to the Prussian court, owing to the recommendation of Boerhaave; as physician he served Frederick William I for about eight months and then returned to Halle.
Haffmann was charged with the organization of the medical school, and his success in the new institution was immediate.
He remained only three years at the court, which was oppressively beset with petty intriguing.
After extricating himself from this situation, Hoffmann returned to Halle to resume teaching and medical practice.
From the time of Hippocrates, physicians had sought to discover and establish the fundamental laws governing the phenomena of health and sickness.
It was long believed that medicine would become a truly scientific endeavor, rather than a purely empirical craft, only through the apprehension of rational causes and an understanding of the mechanisms producing disease.
This outlook led in time to formulation of an elaborate paradigm of so-called balanced and corruptible humors.
The animal spirits, for example, were visualized by Hoffmann as volatile, ethereal corpuscles of matter flowing through the nervous system.
To explain the functions of the body, Hoffmann relied heavily on the Cartesian hydrodynamic schemes.
According to these, the various humors flowed through the body’s vessels at different rates, depending upon the diameter of the vessels.
In these activities the ethereal spirits were directed by an anima, or sensitive soul, which Hoffmann conceived of as a subtle, hypothetical form of matter on which God himself had directly impressed motion.
Responsible, in an Aristotelian sense, for the form of the body, this soul, or “nature, ” possessed mechanical powers, or virtues, responsible for the purposeful and apparently goal-directed activities of the organism; moreover, it constituted the material link with the immaterial and rational human mind created by God.
Accordingly, Sprengel tried to interpret Hoffmann’s ethereal spirits as veritable aggregates of monads which directed and coordinated their own activities according to a general plan.
Tone in the fibers could also be influenced by the animal spirits, he held, rather than being dependent solely on immanent physical cohesiveness.
To Hoffmann, the prerequisite for good health was proper circulation of the humors, attributable to normal tension or tonus in all the fibers.
Disease, on the other hand, was the result of distorted vital actions arising from impaired humoral motions and resultant changes in the solid parts of the body.
Many of these disturbances were caused by abnormal motions of the ethereal animal spirits.
These spirits increased the tone of certain fibers, producing vascular and intestinal spasms or a diminished fiber tension called atony.
According to Hoffmann, local humoral stagnations led in turn to a series of chemical changes responsible for many local lesions.
He followed closely the corpuscular views of contemporary physics and chemistry and tried to interpret physiology and pathogenesis strictly in terms of matter and motion.
His formulations of a series of general principles for understanding the human organism, as well as the formulations of other eighteenth-century systematists, led to the more precise investigations that laid the theoretical foundations of modern medicine.
Hoffmann maintained a lifelong interest in chemistry.
His primary contributions here were in the investigation of mineral waters, specifically in improving contemporary analytical methods and distinguishing essential components.
Hoffmann studied spiritus mineralis (carbon dioxide) in water, which he characterized as a weak acid intermixed with various salts.
He also discerned the presence of sulfates in certain waters and clearly separated magnesia from lime.
The hot springs of Carlsbad especially interested Hoffmann, who explained that the high temperatures of the waters were caused by a chemical reaction involving sulfur, iron, and oils.
Another of his studies, having clear medical implications, was his description of carbon-monoxide poisoning from the fumes of burning charcoal (1716).
While taking substantial issue with Stahl’s medical theory, Hoffmann accepted many of his chemical ideas, one exception being that of the existence of phlogiston in metals.
In 1693, shortly after the establishment of the University of Halle, he was appointed primary professor of medicine and natural philosophy.
During his career there, he held the position of rector three times. With the exception of four years (1708–1712), which he passed at Berlin in the capacity of royal physician, Hoffmann spent the rest of his life at Halle in instruction, practice and study, interrupted now and again by visits to different courts of Germany, where his services procured him honours and rewards.
His fame became European. He was enrolled a member of many learned societies in different foreign countries (including being elected Fellow of the Royal Society in 1720), while in his own he became privy councillor.
