September 1996Am Großen Stern
Roman
by Gerlind Reinshagen
Was geschieht, wenn ein Mann, ein noch junger, durch den Anblick eines Kindes plötzlich und vollkommen aus der Fassung gerät? Wenn es ihm als der Inbegriff eines Kindes und das »letzte Kind« überhaupt erscheint? Wenn er nichts anderes mehr denken, wünschen, wollen kann, als dieses Geschöpf in seinen Besitz und seine Gewalt zu bekommen?Was könnte geschehen, wenn sich der Wunsch realisiert und es ihm gelingt, das Waisenkind, das übrigens ein Mädchen ist – als Tochter anzunehmen, wenn die Tochter sich widerstandslos herabläßt, den Mann als Vater anzuerkennen?In einer Berliner Altbauwohnung sieht der Fotograf Falk ein etwa zehnjähriges Mädchen, das sein Freund Jörg aus dem fernen Osteuropa mitgebracht hat. Falk ist verzaubert, wie erschlagen. Er möchte das Kind haben, es aufziehen. Die Freunde treten es dem Alleinstehenden ab, Bronja erklärt sich einverstanden. Und dann beginnt das ehrgeizige Projekt einer Anti-Erziehung: Die »Tochter« soll sich selbst entwickeln; der Vater will ihr – über alle Herbarts, Lockes, Pestalozzis, ja selbst über Rousseau hinaus – unbegrenzte Freiheit lassen. Ein schwieriges Unterfangen: Wochenlang ergreift der selbsternannte Vater nicht oder kaum merklich ein, um das Mädchen im Augenblick der unvermeindlichen Gefahr nur um so heftiger zu schütteln. Angeblich um den schlechten Schulleistungen aufzuhelfen, sperrt er es in seinem Zimmer ein, in Wirklichkeit, um es vor dem übermaß an falschen Bildern, Blicken, vor jedem fremden Einfluß zu bewahren. Stattdessen beginnt er die Tochter mit Geschichten aus der Literatur zu füttern (vornehmlich der alten, in denen Menschen noch vorbildlos und unbeirrt ihren eigenen Gedanken und Schicksalen folgten). Denn Falks Hauptfrage lautet: Wie hält man Kinder hungrig und im dunkeln, damit sie Kraft sammeln, um später lange brennen zu können? Um wieder andere »anzuzünden«?

Agricultural scienceOctober 2015Crop Improvement, Adoption and Impact of Improved Varieties in Food Crops in Sub-Saharan Africa
by Edited by Dr Thomas S. Walker, Jeffrey Alwang
Following on from the CGIAR study by Evenson and Gollin (published by CABI in 2003), this volume provides up-to-date estimates of adoption outcomes and productivity impacts of crop variety improvement research in sub-Saharan Africa. The book reports on the results of the DIIVA Project that focussed on the varietal generation, adoption and impact for 20 food crops in 30 countries. It also compares adoption outcomes in sub-Saharan Africa to those in South Asia, and guides future efforts for global agricultural research

February 2023Ode to Youth
by Shi Zhongshan is a writer, scriptwriter, and television producer. He has written novels such as The New Generation in the Military Compound and Hailing from All Corners of the Country and novelettes such as Years of Passion Burning, Resonance of Military Songs,and Happiness as Flowers, of which over thirty have been adapted for over one thousand episodes of TV plays.
Dong Hongmei's father died of disability after the war, and her mother mysteriously “disappeared” when she was three years old. The tragic life experience indicates that her growth will be bumpy. However, her life turned a corner as she became the so-called "child of high-ranking officials," and she managed to drag herself out of the morass of despair. By virtue of the identity of "the child of high-ranking officials," all kinds of good things, such as awards, promotion, and the opportunity of going to Beijing, followed close on one another, while all these actually resulted from a huge misunderstanding... Dong Hongmei's life is full of affecting friendship, thereby making Ode to Youth a rare masterpiece full of romantic feelings in contemporary literary circles.

April 2022Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
by Eifert, Georg H.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) aims to teach people to face emotional problems openly with mindfulness and compassion while pursuing what they truly care about in their lives. The book provides an introduction to the principles and methods of ACT and presents therapeutic strategies across disorders. ACT is not primarily about eliminating and controlling symptoms, but about developing greater psychological flexibility through learning mindful acceptance. Using numerous examples, the book describes how clients can learn to respond with greater kindness to their unwanted inner experience, to gently deal with their emotional and thought barriers, and to focus on committed life-goal-oriented action. Numerous experiential exercises, metaphors, mindfulness techniques, and behavioral activation methods are presented for this purpose. In addition, this new edition of the book provides information on current effectiveness evidence and developments in ACT, e.g. promoting self- compassion. For:• psychotherapists• psychiatrists• clinical psychologists• students and teachers in psychotherapeutictraining, furthertraining, and continuing education

PsychologyACT: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
With ACT Questionnaires for Clinical Assessment, 100 Questions
by Paolo Moderato, Giovambattista Presti, Francesco dell’Orco
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a psychotherapeutic intervention based on experimental evidence. Its goal is to help people implement concrete behaviors in accordance with their values even in the presence of diffcult or interfering events. The authors clearly describe how ACT works and provide useful guidance for clinical practice. Soon the concepts of fusion and defusion become familiar and the Hexafex a way of thinking rather than appearing as a mere scheme. Acceptance and commitment replace refusal and renunciation: this is the innovative therapeutic challenge of ACT. This manual, enriched with metaphors and exercises that can be used in a therapeutic session, is intended for reading by specialists by tackling the themes of this approach with rigor and depth, taking the reader step by step into the heart of ACT. The appendix contains seven ACT questionnaires for clinical assessment.

Botany & plant sciencesJuly 1998Take-All Disease of Cereals
A Regional Perspective
by Geoffrey L Bateman, Richard J Gutteridge, Philippe Lucas, Anne E Osbourn, Elaine Ward. Edited by David Hornby.
Take-all is the most important root disease of cereals worldwide and a major disease problem in northern European wheat-growing regions. It is regarded by many as an intractable problem because of the lack of economically-viable chemical controls and resistant cultivars. It remains one of the great challenges of plant pathology and serves as an ideal model for many of the problems of root diseases in general. This book, an initiative of the IACR/ADAS/Universities Cereal Root Pathology Group, is the first since 1981 to provide an up-to-date review of the practical aspects of take-all research. It contains the experience of several contributors with long and active careers in take-all research or the advisory services and includes a comprehensive worldwide bibliography of relevant literature published over the last 15 years. The book concentrates on Europe, particularly the UK and France, and this regional theme is developed through comparisons with approaches used in, for example, North America and Australia. Chapters deal with history, disease and epidemiology, take-all in relation to cereal production systems, strategies for management, the pathogens and related fungi, field techniques and future prospects. This book is essential reading for advanced students and professionals in cereal crop protection research and will be of interest to plant pathologists as well as agricultural advisors.
