Agricultural scienceNovember 1999Livestock, Ethics and Quality of Life
by Edited by John Hodges, In K Han
The science of animal production has recently become headline news. The cloning of sheep, the use of pig xenotransplants and bovine somatotrophin, as well as mad-cow disease, are all examples of how livestock production is related to food safety, human health, ethics and quality of life. The relationship between intensive developed-world animal production and third world development also raises ethical issues. These are just some of the topics addressed in this book, which has its origin in a special symposium held at the VIII World Congress on Animal Production held in June 1998 in Korea. Additional chapters have been specially commissioned for inclusion in the book.

July 2021My Life with Viruses
A researcher’s history of the fascinating world of pathogens
by Ernst-Ludwig Winnacker in association with Jeanne Rubner
In times of the coronavirus pandemic many people have certainly condemned them, but Professor Ernst-Ludwig Winnacker has dedicated his life to researching them and is intrigued by viruses – even if sometimes he is keenly aware of their fatal effects. To mark his 80th birthday the biochemist describes the co-evolution and co-existence as well as the eternal ‘battle’ between humans and viruses. Winnacker takes up the cause of these ‘biological elements between animate and inanimate nature’ because they play an important role in fundamental research and genetic technology, and without them human beings would not be what they are.

August 2017Common Witness: The Rape of Nankin (1937)
by The Memorial Hall of the Victims in Nanjing Massacre
Exhibition: Mémorial pour la Paix de Caen, France, October to December 2016. More than 270 historical photos, letters, diaries and media reports. Recorded by western scholars, doctors, priests, diplomats and journalists who were in Nanjing displaying the true history of Sino-Japanese war. Like the Auschwitz massacres, the Nanjing Massacre is also a crime against humanity. More than 300,000 people were killed and more than 20,000 people were rape in less than two months. The beautiful city Nanjing, capital of China at that time, were bombed and ruined. Thanks to those kind international friends who stayed in Nanjing, more than 200,000 Chinese victims were rescued and kept safe. Their letters and photos also recorded the unforgettable holocaust as an impartial third party.

2021Lexicon of Medicinal Plants
by Prof. Dr. Dietrich Frohne (†), in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Birgit Classen
Indian mulberry, St. John’s wort, Hawaiian baby woodrose – whether disputed wonder drug, traditional medicinal plant or unknown exotic plant – the Lexicon of Medicinal Plants can always be relied upon. The lexical and classic knowledge about the individual medicinal plants – such as family, origin, use, effect and constituents – garnered over decades and peppered with particular anecdotes on the herbal drugs, can be regarded as unique and largely timeless. At the repeated request of readers, this reference work has therefore been reissued in book form, with its contents largely unchanged but with misprints corrected and its layout modernised. A wealth of experience that even in the fast-moving digital world preserves traditional knowledge.
