Roy Ward Baker
by Geoff Mayer, Brian McFarlane, Neil Sinyard
This book traces the career of Roy Ward Baker, one of the great survivors of the British film and television industry. He directed the landmark British film Morning Departure (1949), worked at Twentieth Century Fox in Hollywood in the early 1950s where he directed Marilyn Monroe's 'breakthrough' film (Don't Bother to Knock), and followed this with a succession of fine films for Rank, culminating in the best version of the Titanic disaster, A Night to Remember in 1958. Yet within three years he was unable to secure a job in the British film industry and he moved to television series such as The Avengers, The Saint and Minder. Later Baker re-emerged as a major director of science-fiction (Quatermass and the Pit) and horror films (Asylum). Geoff Mayer provides an industrial and aesthetic context in which to understand the interrelationship between a skilled classical director and the transformation of the British film industry in the 1950s. ;

Abbey Road Murder Song
Roman
by William Shaw, Conny Lösch
Swinging London – die Stadt ist ein einziges Beatles-Album: bunt, laut und fröhlich. Miniröcke beherrschen die Bürgersteige, Mini Cooper die Straßen. Die ganze Welt scheint nur noch aus Musik und Mode zu bestehen. Doch der Spaß ist nicht endlos: Unweit des Abbey Road Studios wird die Leiche einer jungen Frau gefunden. Auf der Suche nach ihrem Mörder lernen Detective Breen und seine Kollegin Tozer Londons düstere Kehrseite kennen. London, Oktober 1968: Die Jungen, Wilden und Schönen haben die Macht ergriffen. Sie haben ihre eigenen Fernsehprogramme und Radiosender, ihre Boutiquen und eine eigene Sprache. Die Röcke werden kürzer, die Hosen enger. Im Abbey Road Studio entstehen die wahrscheinlich wichtigsten Alben aller Zeiten. Und vor dem Studio warten Hunderte junge Frauen darauf, dass SIE erscheinen: die Beatles. Doch nur eine Straßenecke weiter zeigt sich ein anderes London. Die anonyme Leiche einer jungen Frau wird entdeckt. Der einzige Anhaltspunkt, den Detective Cathal Breen und seine Kollegin Helen Tozer haben: Sie muss ein Beatles-Fan gewesen sein. Ihre Ermittlungen führen die beiden vom Fan-Club der Fab Four zu einer Gerichtsverhandlung gegen John Lennon und zu George Harrisons Haus. Aber der wahre Grund, wieso das Mädchen sterben musste, ist viel tragischer, als sie es sich hätten träumen lassen.

Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre
by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Agathe Sorlet
Josephine liebte den großen Auftritt auf der Bühne. Weil in ihrer Heimat Rassentrennung herrschte, ging sie nach Paris. Dort tanzte sie in zahlreichen Shows und verzauberte das Publikum. Außerdem wurde sie zum Filmstar und arbeitete sogar als Spionin. Später kehrte sie zurück in die USA und kämpfte für Bürgerrechte. Sie adoptierte 12 Kinder aus der ganzen Welt und nannte sie ihre „Regenbogenfamilie“. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Künstlerin, Pilotin oder Wissenschaftler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.

Lines Written with the Green Pen
by Mei Zihan, Ma Xiaode
Lines Written with the Green Pen is a poem for children written by the famous children's literature writer Mei Zihan. It is about a boy trying to write poems with his green pen. At first, he doubts whether he can write poems. Then he takes a walk and starts creating his own lines—he says hello to the sky; he wonders about the leaves, birds’ chirping, the gone clouds, the old lady and the yellow dress… He, the “little ant poet”, writes, “Those who are dreaming are awake. Hence, the night and the day meet on the pillow.” In the end, he drops down his green pen and decides to fly and be the child as he is.

Situating religion and medicine in Asia
Methodological insights and innovations
by Michael Stanley-Baker
This edited volume presents the latest research on the intersection of religion and medicine in Asia. It features chapters by internationally known scholars, who bring to bear a range of methodological and geographic expertise on this topic. The book's central question is to what extent 'religion' and 'medicine' have overlapped or interrelated in various Asian societies. Collectively, the contributions explore a number of related issues, such as: which societies separated out religious from medical concerns, at which times and in what ways? Where have medicine and religion converged, and how has such knowledge been defined by scholars and cultural actors? Are 'religion' and 'medicine' the best terms by which scholars can grapple with knowledge about the sacred and the self, destiny and disease?
