September 1998Medien – Computer – Realität
Wirklichkeitsvorstellungen und Neue Medien
by Sybille Krämer
"Dieser Band fragt nach den Voraussetzungen und Folgen der medialen Nutzung des Computers - und zwar nicht in einer technikwissenschaftlichen Perspektive; den Autoren geht es vielmehr um geistes- bzw. kulturwissenschaftlich inspirierte Interpretationen der neuen Medien. Die Beiträge zentrieren sich um drei miteinander verwandte Themen: (1) In einer grundlagentheoretischen Perspektive wird die Frage gestellt: »Was ist ein Medium?« (2) Dann wird der Computer als ein Medium thematisiert. (3) Schließlich geht es um Veränderungen unseres Wirklichkeitsverständnisses im Gefolge von Phänomenen, die mit dem Einsatz digitalisierter Medien verbunden sind."

Children's & YA2018The Magic Bird
by Ken Spillman and Malavika PC
A lone bird hungry for magic pecks at alphabet shapes. It looks through glass windows of book stores and glances at the t-shirts of pedestrians with the hope of solving the mystery hidden behind those letters. Soon, the words become familiar and the bird determinedly starts collecting scraps of paper to build a nest, wanting to hatch its ideas with warmth and nurture them through potential and free imagination. The unusual combination of Ken Spillman’s simple yet eloquent prose and Malavika PC’s inspired images combine in perfect harmony to express the powerful story of The Magic Bird. The bird reminds the reader of the extraordinary components which create something as ordinary as language, and the value of spreading our wings to take stories to others.

Humanities & Social SciencesJune 2024Peace and the politics of memory
by Annika Björkdahl, Susanne Buckley-Zistel, Stefanie Kappler, Johanna Mannergren Selimovic, Timothy Williams
This important book provides new understandings of how the politics of memory impacts peace in societies transitioning from a violent past. It does so by developing a theoretical approach focusing on the intersection of sites, agency, narratives, and events in memory-making. Drawing on rich empirical studies of mnemonic formations in Cyprus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Rwanda, South Africa and Cambodia, the book speaks to a broad audience. The in-depth, cross-case analysis shows that inclusivity, pluralism, and dignity in memory politics are key to the construction of a just peace. The book contributes crucial and timely knowledge about societies that grapple with the painful legacies of the past and advances the study of memory and peace.

March 1993Allwissen und Absturz. Der Ursprung des Computers
by Werner Künzel, Peter Bexte
"Das vorliegende Buch handelt von der Geschichte der logischen Kombinatorik aus der Sicht der aktuellen Computertheorie. Dabei werden die entscheidenden Metamorphosen dieser Maschine erfaßt; die Beschränkungen der vereinzelten Wissenschaften werden aufgehoben zugunsten neuer Perspektiven. Denn am Ursprung der Denkmaschine überkreuzen sich verschiedene Diskurse. Die Spur der Ars Combinatoria führt aus der Kosmologie in eine Welt technischer Phänomene, alles treibt zur Maschine hin. Aus der Tradition kabbalistischer Kombinationslogik werden jene Schaltpläne geboren, die die universelle Maschine steuern. Athanasius Kirchers Schriften aus dem 17. Jahrhundert sind deren früheste Manuale..."

Addiction affects millions of people throughout the United States, and the numbers are growing. But what exactly is this phenomenon? Is it a physical or psychological illness? A poor choice?

Addiction, Second Edition explores the mechanics of addiction, its root causes, and how it touches the lives of every member of society, including users, nonusers, and friends and relatives of users. This eBook also explains addiction as a medical and behavioral phenomenon, defines drug use and behaviors that can reach compulsive levels, and illustrates various ways to treat addictions.

2019When a Virus Defeated Napoleon
How nature makes history
by Sebastian Jutzi
Humans write history, but nature and coincidence often play a significant part in making history. The weather, volcanoes, celestial bodies, pathogens: all of them can influence historical events. In 413 BC, a lunar eclipse contributed to the defeat of the Athenians by Syracuse. In 1802, Napoleon’s soldiers on Saint-Domingue, the Haiti of today, were carried off in their thousands by yellow fever; the slave revolt that the troops had been sent to suppress succeeded, and the island declared itself independent in 1804. Nature not only makes history, it can also contribute to the understanding of history. For example, the route that the Carthaginians took over the Alps was only revealed recently by the discovery of ancient manure – not too surprising since Hannibal was accompanied by an estimated 10,000 horses. Sebastian Jutzi relates these and many other (hi)stories in a knowledgeable, entertaining and informative way – a treasure trove for anyone who wants to get to know history from an “unusual” perspective.

The ArtsJuly 2024Italian graphic design
Culture and practice in Milan, 1930s-60s
by Chiara Barbieri
Italian graphic design offers a new perspective on the subject by exploring the emergence and articulation of graphic design practice, from the interwar period through to the appearance of an international graphic design discourse in the 1960s. The book asks how graphic designers learned their trade and investigates the ways in which they organised and made their practice visible while negotiating their collective identity with neighbouring practices such as typography, advertising and industrial design. Attention is drawn to everyday design practice, educational issues, mediating channels, networks, design exchange, organisational strategies and discourses on modernism. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources and placing an emphasis on visual analysis, this book provides a model for a contextualised graphic design history as an integral part of the history of design and visual culture.
