April 2022Sustainable Agricultural Intensification
A Handbook for Practitioners in East and Southern Africa
by Mateete Bekunda, Jonathan Odhong, Irmgard Hoeschle-Zeledon
This book provides an insight into the background, lessons learned, and the methodology of facilitating the application of best-bet/best-fit agricultural technologies to smallholder farms in East and Southern Africa (ESA). All technologies highlighted within this book, except those on livestock feeding, were trialed and demonstrated in farmers' fields over an eight-year period [2012 - 2020] as part of the Feed the Future/USAID funded research-for-development Africa RISING ESA Project and supported by the CGIAR. The livestock feed technologies were compiled from Eastern Africa literature and included to offer a full set of technologies relevant for farmers in mixed farming systems. Topics covered include the introduction of resilient and nutrient-dense crops, better arrangement of crops in the field to amplify intercrop benefits, and the management of soils to improve soil fertility and minimize physical soil and nutrient loss. The publication also features technologies for postharvest loss reduction, livestock feeding, food processing, and in the later chapters, important expositions on how multiple technologies can be creatively integrated in a farming system and how key products of research can be taken to scale. In the first chapter and throughout the handbook, the importance of taking gender dynamics into account to ensure technologies produce equitable outcomes is emphasized. This book: provides evidence-based descriptions of sustainable agricultural intensification technologies that have been validated iteratively with smallholder farmers. a convenient, easy-to-read, and science-based 'how-to' guide for successful deployment of improved agricultural technologies that will ensure readers from development/scaling agencies save time and resources for research trials and instead focus on technology deployment. gives evidence of how building research and development partnerships can be a critical element for successful delivery and scaling up of agricultural technologies. The book is aimed primarily at development practitioners who seek new competences in taking new technologies to scale. However, the breadth of topics covered makes this book an essential resource for agricultural scientists as well as university and college students aspiring to apply systems thinking in future agricultural research and development work.

September 2022Auftritt: Die Neue Frau
by Brigitte Landes
Ihr Auftreten in der jungen Millionenstadt Berlin mit Smoking, Zigarette, Bubikopf und Auto, als Flapper, Garçonne oder Girl, macht sie zur Ikone der Zwanziger Jahre. Sie spielt selbstbewusst, sachlich, frivol, provozierend und kämpferisch ihre neu errungene Rolle. In Essays, Reportagen und Kolumnen, in Erzählungen, Romanen und in Lebenserinnerungen wirbt und kämpft sie für die Idee von der ›Neuen Frau‹. Für Helen Hessel ist die »Mode eine Waffe im Kampf der Geschlechter«, Fritzi Massary, die »Frau, die weiß, was sie will«, schreibt vom »Glück des Autofahrens«, Marieluise Fleißer denkt nach über »Sportgeist und Zeitkunst«, Vicky Baum boxt und hat keine »Angst vor Kitsch«, Mascha Kaléko erzählt von den »Mädchen an der Schreibmaschine«, Pola Negri will den Männern missfallen, Gabriele Tergit und Else Lasker-Schüler protestieren gegen den §218, Blandine Ebinger und Claire Waldoff erkunden die Nachtseite Berlins, Josefine Baker tut, was ihr passt, und Valeska Gert platzt wie eine Bombe auf die Wilde Bühne, die Trude Hesterberg gegründet hat ... In den aus den unterschiedlichsten Quellen zusammengestellten Texten zeigt sich die neu gewonnene Freiheit mit ihren Licht- und Schattenseiten.

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.

March 2024Die Architektonik der Vernunft
Zweckmäßigkeit und systematische Einheit in Kants »Kritik der reinen Vernunft«
by Lea Ypi, Antonia Grunert
Die Vernunft ist ein vielfältiges Vermögen. Ein vernünftiges Wesen erkennt, wie die Dinge sind; zugleich kann es sich vorstellen, was sein soll, und entsprechend handeln. Wie aber können zwei scheinbar so verschiedene Fähigkeiten – Erkennen und Handeln – als Teile desselben Vermögens begriffen werden? Lea Ypi geht der Einheit der Vernunft in einem oft vernachlässigten Kapitel von Kants Hauptwerk nach: der »Architektonik der reinen Vernunft«. Die Vernunft gleicht hier einem Bauwerk, dem ein Plan zugrunde liegt, der jedem Bestandteil seinen festen Platz zuweist. Doch ihr theoretischer und ihr praktischer Teil werden von einem fragilen Bindeglied zusammengehalten, an dem sich die Stabilität des Ganzen entscheidet. Diesem spürt dieses meisterhafte Buch nach.

January 2003Das Verbrechen des einundzwanzigsten Jahrhunderts. Die Kinder
Stücke und Materialien
by Edward Bond, Brigitte Landes
Edward Bond wurde 1934 in der Londoner Vorstadt Holloway geboren. 1956 schrieb er erste Gedichte und Stückentwürfe und trat 1960 einer Dramatikergruppe um John Osborne, Arnold Wesker und John Arden bei. 1962 wurde Bonds erstes Stück, The Pope's Wedding (Die Hochzeit des Papstes), in London uraufgeführt. Sein zweites Theaterstück, Saved (Gerettet), provozierte einen der größten Skandale der britischen Theatergeschichte: Das Stück wurde kurz nach seiner Premiere im November 1965 im Royal Court Theatre aufgrund von expliziter Gewaltdarstellung von der Zensur verboten. Die sich anschließende Diskussion um Freiheit der Kunst bewirkte 1968 das Ende der britischen Theaterzensur. Große Erfolge wurden Anfang der 1970er Jahre seine Lear-Bearbeitung und das Stück The Sea (Die See). In den kommenden Jahrzehnten zahlreiche Stücke, Opernlibretti für Hans Werner Henze, Arbeit an Theatern, für den Film (u.a. Mitarbeit am Drehbuch zu Antonionis Film Blow up) und das Fernsehen. Edward Bond lebt in der Nähe von Cambridge. Brigitte Landes, geboren 1946 in Frankfurt/Main. Sie arbeitet freiberuflich als Dramaturgin, Regisseurin und Autorin.
