      Heiße Küste

      Roman

      by Marguerite Duras, Georg Goyert

      Ja, sie ist sehr heiß, die Küste am Pazifik, unerträglich heiß. Die Ebene ist sumpfig, die Wüste unfruchtbar. Und die Menschen sind bitterarm. Alle drei, die Mutter, Suzanne und Joseph, hatten den Kauf eines Pferdes für eine gute Idee gehalten. Ein Pferd mit Wagen würde hinausführen aus der Gottverlassenheit ihres Lebens, würde sie nach Ram bringen, und beim Anblick von Menschen würden sie Trost und Zerstreuung finden. Das Pferd aber fraß nicht, es ließ den Kopf hängen und war nach acht Tagen krepiert.

      Angry Goat

      by Volodymyr Rutkivsky (Author). Natalia Kudlak (Illustrator)

      This cheerful and witty book tells the story of the amazing friendship between the boy Severin and a giant goat, who, perhaps unfairly, was called the Аngry Goat. When Severin came to his grandmother's village for the summer, Goat tried to ram him. But then - quite unexpectedly - he became the boy's best friend. Now Severin is not afraid of Goat anymore. Severin gives to Goat the most delicious carrots from his grandmother's garden, and bends the branches of a maple tree for him, because his new friend likes new leaves so much! In return, Goat pushes Severin and his friend on the swing, and makes them laugh with his antics. And one day he even saved a bird that fell out of the nest... Together with Severin, little readers will learn step by step the secrets of a world that opens up to you if you are not afraid to go outside of Grandma's gate for the first time!

      Parasites of Cattle and Sheep

      A Practical Guide to their Biology and Control

      by Andrew B Forbes

      Understanding parasite biology and impact is essential when giving advice on parasite control in farm animals. In the first review devoted to parasites of domestic cattle and sheep alone, this book provides in-depth, focused advice which can be tailored to individual farms. It considers the impact of parasites, both as individual species and as co-infections, as well as epidemiological information, monitoring, and diagnostic procedures. Supported throughout by diagrams and photos to aid diagnosis, it also reviews the basis for control measures such as the responsible use of parasiticides, adaptive animal husbandry and other management practices. This book: Focuses on common parasites of domestic sheep and cattle; Places emphasis on understanding host responses and epidemiology so that the impact and seasonality of parasitism can be incorporated into advice and decision making; Highlights the fundamental importance of the individual farm and farmer in assessing endemic parasitism and tailoring control options accordingly; Provides a comprehensive reference listing, including important historical citations, to underpin the content. An important resource for students, veterinarians and researchers of farm animal health, this book maintains a focus on ruminant parasitology in order to deliver evidence-based advice and also context for the application of basic research.
