Geschichten aus fünf Jahrzehnten
by Günter Grass, Dieter Stolz, Dieter Stolz
Persönliche Verlusterfahrungen und erkenntnistheoretisch fundierte Skepsis führten dazu, daß Grass den existentiell zu denkenden Zweifel zum Strukturprinzip seiner trotz allem durchaus sinnenfrohen Dichtung erhob. Der Band versammelt allerhand phantastischrealistische Lebensgeschichten aus der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts, darunter wenig bekannte Kurzprosa und zwei in diesem Band erstmals abgedruckte Archivskizzen.

Children's & YAMissing Bugs and Grass
An Invitation Letter from Nature
by Xue Tao
An Invitation Letter from Nature series is Xue Tao's first set of nature-themed picture books. Since childhood, Xue Tao has enjoyed getting along with the plants and animals in nature and felt the rise and fall of all beings with a sensitive heart. This set of picture books for nature and ecology education just pays tribute to nature, as well as to a vibrant childhood. An Invitation Letter from Nature series focuses on the theme of nature in the form of transitions through the four seasons. It currently has five books: Epic of Mountain Forests, Day and Night of the Little Wooden House, One Year of Me and Tree, Missing Bugs and Grass, Birds and Little Beasts as Companions. Each book has its own theme, just like five different landscape paintings, presenting different life experiences. Missing Bugs and Grass depicts the changes of bugs and grass in four seasons, which is in fact a metaphor for the journey of human life.

Animal physiologyNovember 1998Grass for Dairy Cattle
by Edited by Jerome H Cherney, Debbie J R Cherney
With the current interest in the environmental and economic sustainability of dairy farming, grass forage crops have emerged as a potential solution to some of the nutrient management problems now encountered on intensively managed dairy farms. The expansion and reintegration of grass-based systems into the mainstream of dairying systems will require a major paradigm shift involving economic, social and ecological, as well as biological factors.This book examines the role of grass in milk production in sustainable agricultural ecosystems. It provides a current summary of the role of grass in dairy cattle systems, including the breeding, management, storage, feeding and economics of grass for both lactating and dry dairy cows. Written by leading specialists from Australia, Europe, New Zealand, North and South America, this is an essential reference source for researchers, dairy industry professionals and advanced students of forage and dairy cattle nutrition.

Agronomy & crop productionOctober 1994Grass Genera of the World
by Leslie Watson, Michael J Dallwitz
Modern taxonomic treatments of the grass family (Poaceae, Gramineae) recognize about 10,000 species and as many as 785 genera. This book provides detailed descriptions of these genera, in alphabetical sequence, the descriptions having been generated by computer from a taxonomic data bank. One of the authors has been engaged for some twenty years in compiling data and observations on grass genera, in order to investigate classificatory questions and to explore taxonomic applications of computer methods. The other has worked for a similar time on computer key-making, and has developed the DELTA system for comprehensive representation and manipulation of taxonomic descriptions. They have devised a grass generic character list to cover all aspects of variation in glasses. In this book this list comprises 496 characters, dealing with nomenclature, general morphology, leaf anatomy and physiology, biochemistry, haploid and 2cDNA values, fruit and embryo structure, seeding form, cytology, intergeneric hybrids, phytogeography and distribution, ecology, pathogens, classification and economic aspects. The work is undoubtedly a definitive work, essential for all those with a serious research interest in grasses.

September 2000Katz und Maus
Eine Novelle
by Günter Grass
Was Joachim Mahlke, der im Zweiten Weltkrieg in Danzig aufs Gymnasium geht, auszeichnet, ist ein Defekt. Sein übermäßig entwickelter Adamsapfel macht ihn zum Gespött der Schulkameraden. Mahlke, der Verlierer, ist sein kurzes Leben lang mit nichts anderem beschäftigt als damit, diesen Auswuchs zu verdecken, Fertigkeiten zu entwickeln, die ihn zum Sieger machen. Als Panzerkommandant erringt er das Ritterkreuz, das, um den Hals getragen, sehr gut zum Ablenken geeignet sein müßte. Aber selbst dieser Orden verwandelt die Maus nicht in eine Katze.

Eine Festschrift für Max Frisch zum siebzigsten Geburtstag
by Siegfried Unseld, Günter Grass
Der Autor Max Frisch setzt auf Verwandlung, das Werden sei köstlich, das Fertige irgendwie trostlos. Reicht unsere Kraft zum Möglichen nicht aus, um das berühmt gewordene »Ich stelle mir vor« als silbernen Hauch in unserem Dasein zu verwirklichen? Immer wieder zieht mich der Tagebucheintrag vom Neujahrstag 1949 magisch an. Max Frisch reflektiert hier über das Klima der Sympathie. Er sieht in der Sympathie - und nicht etwa in der Liebe - die Macht, die Flügel verleiht. Und er verleiht der Sympathie die Gestalt eines Schutzengels, mit dem wir aufgewachsen sind, auf den wir uns verlassen und der uns, obwohl er nur ein Hauch ist, vom Ungeheuerlichen trennt. Das Ungeheuerliche wäre demnach das Klima ohne Sympathie? Der skeptisch philosophierende Poet stellt die Frage, ob das unverzichtbare Klima vielleicht nichts als freundliche Täuscherei sei, dieses aber, das Klima mit Intoleranz und Haß das gültigere? Doch da wir ohne Sympathie nicht sein können, folgert er: »Verloren: ohne Schutzengel«. Der Doppelpunkt doppelt die Einsicht.Die Beiträge dieser Festschrift sind aus dem Klima der Sympathie entstanden, das die Autoren für ihren großen Schriftstellerkollegen empfinden. Die Beiträge zeigen, wie mannigfach die Reaktionen von Lesern auf den Autor Max Frisch sein können: Konfessionen und Diskussionen, Beschreibungen und Vermutungen, Erinnerungen als Vergegenwärtigung, Versuche des »Ich stelle mir vor« und » Wie wäre meine Biographie verlaufen, wenn ...«. Begegnungen mit dem Autor, Begegnungen mit seinen Figuren. (S. Unseldt)

Zoology & animal sciencesMay 2021Nutrition and Feeding Organic Cattle
by Robert Blair
Organic cattle farming is on the increase, with consumer demand for organic milk and meat growing yearly. Beginning with an overview of the aims and principles behind organic cattle production, this book presents extensive information about how to feed cattle so that the milk and meat produced meet organic standards, and provides a comprehensive summary of ruminant digestive processes and nutrition. Since the publication of the first edition, global consumers have increasingly become concerned with the sustainability of meat production. Here, Robert Blair considers the interrelationships of sustainable practices and profitability of organic herds, reviewing how to improve forage production and quality, and minimizing the need for supplementary feeding using off-farm ingredients. This new edition also covers: - Managing a recurrent shortage of organic feed ingredients, due to increased GM feed crop cultivation worldwide - Current findings on appropriate breeds and grazing systems for forage-based organic production - Diet-related health issues in organic herds and the effects of organic production on meat and milk quality. Required reading for animal science researchers, advisory personnel that service the organic milk and beef industries and students interested in organic milk and meat production, this book is also a useful resource for organic farming associations, veterinarians, and feed and food industry personnel.

Agricultural scienceJune 1996Biology of Grasses
by Edited by Geoffrey P Chapman
Grasses are put to a multitude of uses by those involved in agriculture and recreation. They are also of importance to environmental biologists, for example those involved in restorative ecology. In this book the biology of grasses is illustrated by many different grass genera and species, drawn from both temperate and tropical zones. Beginning with a discussion of the role of grasses in a changing world, the author provides a thorough treatment of such topics as the generation and dispersal of grasses, their diversity, history, contrasting life styles, ecology and domestication. The text is supported by the inclusion of high quality line drawings and black and white photographs. There is also a thorough glossary of the terminology associated with grass science. This book bridges the gap between introductory textbooks and research and technical papers. It is an advanced level reference text for students and teachers of agriculture, plant biology and ecology. It is of particular importance to all those studying and researching the genetics, physiology and taxonomy of grasses.
