Abstract
Each chapter should be preceded by an abstract (10–15 lines long) that summarizes the content. The abstract will appear onlineat www.SpringerLink.com and be available with unrestricted access. This allows unregistered users to read the abstract as a teaser for the complete chapter. As a general rule the abstracts will not appear in the printed version of your book unless it is the style of your particular book or that of the series to which your book belongs. Please use the ’starred’ version of the new Springer abstractcommand for typesetting the text of the online abstracts (cf. source file of this chapter template abstract) and include them with the source files of your manuscript. Use the plain abstractcommand if the abstract is also to appear in the printed version of the book.
