September 2023Am Anfang ist der Tod
Thriller | Ein virtuoses Hybrid aus Polizei- und Horrorroman — Rabenschwarz, visionär, fantastisch
by Jesús Cañadas, Thomas Wörtche, Verena Kilchling
Aus einem katholischen Mädcheninternat in Berlin ist die 16-jährige Rebecca Lilienthal verschwunden. Die beiden Kommissare Otto Ritter und Lukas Kocay machen sich auf die Suche nach ihr. Es scheint, als sei Rebecca einem Kult in Hände gefallen, der darauf spezialisiert ist, abenteuerlustige Mädchen und Frauen aus der Berliner Clubszene zu fangen, zu vergewaltigen und zu töten. Im Mittelpunkt dieser sinistren Aktivitäten steht ein Club namens »Das Loch« und dessen charismatischer Chef, der sich Laszlo Gupta nennt. Auf der Suche nach Rebecca stoßen die Polizisten auf immer mehr Hinweise auf eine »Raucherzone«, einen geheimen Ort unvorstellbarer Orgien und Laster. Und hinter Gupta zeichnet sich eine noch viel dunklere Gestalt ab: der König, ein mysteriöses, angeblich grauenhaft anzusehendes Monster. Aber wer hat den König schon je gesehen? Der Tod ist allerdings nur der Anfang und kann der Selbstermächtigung von Frauen keinen Einhalt gebieten.

Picture storybooksJanuary 2016Kaaljayi Kambakth (The Time-Conqueror Wretch)
Diary of a Time-keeper
by Amit Dutta
Sham is a precocious schoolboy who dreams about making sense of the world he inhabits. Shaman, his friend and alter-ego prods him along. They walk together exploring the gullies and outskirts of their suburban hill village. They passionately glean whatever information is available to them through books or people. They make patterns out of this information and scheme to gain control over their reality. The villagers become characters in their scheme and start revealing the cracks in their reality. As fragments of science, philosophy, fairy-tales, folk-legends and history start seeping into their everyday existence, Sham and Shan find themselves deep in an unmanageable world of their own fantasies.

Botany & plant sciencesSeptember 2013Trichoderma
Biology and Applications
by Edited by Prasun K Mukherjee, U S Singh, B A Horwitz, Monika Schmoll, Mala Mukherjee.
Trichoderma spp. are biotechnologically significant fungi, being widely used both in agriculture and industry. These microbes are also a potential drug source of clinical importance. In recent years, driven by advances in genetics and genomics, research on these fungi have opened new avenues for its varied applications. Divided into three sections, covering taxonomy and physiology, interactions with plants and applications and significance, this book also discusses topics that have seen rapid developments in the recent years. Various aspects of Trichoderma like molecular taxonomy, sexual and asexual developments, secondary metabolism, beneficial interactions with plants, applications as cell factories and harmful interactions with humans are discussed. This book, thus, hopes to be an essential ready reference for researchers, students and people form industry as well.

Humanities & Social SciencesFebruary 2025Global counter-terrorism
by Tahir Abbas, Sylvia I. Bergh, Sagnik Dutta
This collection aims to inaugurate a new direction in research on counterterrorism by exploring global connections - both in terms of practices and discourses, as well as shared ideas and epistemes - that animate counterterrorism practices. The chapters - grouped under the themes of postcoloniality and coloniality, and entanglements of the transnational and the local, and counterterrorism and right-wing extremism - are attentive to global connections and are mindful of the complexities of global historical processes that constitute the politics of counterterrorism. This book aims to bring together scholars studying counterterrorism in the global North and the global South to explore convergence and divergence in how counterterrorism policies function in a range of national and local contexts.

Biology, life sciencesDecember 2015Analytical Techniques for Natural Product Research
by Satyanshu Kumar
Plants are important source of lead molecules for drug discovery. These lead molecules serve as starting materials for laboratory synthesis of drug as well a model for production of biologically active compounds. Phytochemical processing of raw plant materials is essentially required to optimize the concentration of known constituents and also to maintain their activities. Extraction techniques and analytical techniques have played critical roles in phytochemical processing of raw materials. Extraction technologies from conventional extraction to green extraction as well as analytical techniques from single technique to hyphenated/coupled techniques most frequently used in phytochemistry laboratories are covered in the book.
