And along it, more control inthe hands of powerful. The level of destruction whichmodern militaries are able to inflict upon helplessnon-combatants is a testimony to this. This humble workis dedicated to the innocent victims of unethical use ofknowledge.AcknowledgementsGratitude is offered where it is due, and foremost is to my advisor Prof. Dr. Winfried Plasswhose continued support and guidance in all the matters scientific put me in a position topresent this work. Particular is the appreciation for his endless patience which helped mediscover my own eccentricities.I feel overwhelmingly indebted to BBG and all the members of our family for theirpatience during my long stay abroad. That I took so long to return is my failing.
