Centering on many practical problems, O, My Fellow Countrymen elaborates a series of thrilling stories via the ruthless conflicts between Wang Tiansheng, the protagonist, and corrupt officials, thus shaping the image of a credible and respected rural secretary of the Party committee who is austere and full of courage. The novel exhibits contemporary living and working status of rural cadres from village-level, town-level and county-level, thereby vividly reflecting the profound reform in current politics, economy and social life, and making itself a realistic novel of counter-corruption subject which is quite rare in recent years.

Die tiefgreifende Verunsicherung, die die Nachricht von »Dolly« ausgelöst hat, verdankt sich der Überzeugung, daß mit der Klonierung von Tieren und Menschen mehr auf dem Spiel steht als bloß die Einführung einer weiteren Reproduktionstechnik. »Dolly« ist zum Signum einer wissenschaftlichtechnischen Entwicklung geworden, die unser menschliches Selbstverständnis zu zerstören droht.

Man brings apocalyptic plagues to the world and his fellow primates – from global warming to the destruction of forests. While millions of monkeys and apes lived on Earth only a few decades ago, today many species are strongly endangered. In this book the anthropologist and monkey researcher Volker Sommer calls on us to finally protect the fundamental rights such as the right to life, freedom and physical integrity of the great apes. For all his seriousness, Sommer is also a great storyteller who deals with his own profession with humour, sympathy and in a highly instructive way.

A lone bird hungry for magic pecks at alphabet shapes. It looks through glass windows of book stores and glances at the t-shirts of pedestrians with the hope of solving the mystery hidden behind those letters. Soon, the words become familiar and the bird determinedly starts collecting scraps of paper to build a nest, wanting to hatch its ideas with warmth and nurture them through potential and free imagination. The unusual combination of Ken Spillman’s simple yet eloquent prose and Malavika PC’s inspired images combine in perfect harmony to express the powerful story of The Magic Bird. The bird reminds the reader of the extraordinary components which create something as ordinary as language, and the value of spreading our wings to take stories to others.

Child, nation, race and empire is an innovative, inter-disciplinary, cross cultural study that contributes to understandings of both contemporary child welfare practices and the complex dynamics of empire. It analyses the construction and transmission of nineteenth-century British child rescue ideology. Locating the origins of contemporary practice in the publications of the prominent English Child rescuers, Dr Barnardo, Thomas Bowman Stephenson, Benjamin Waugh, Edward de Montjoie Rudolf and their colonial disciples and literature written for children, it shows how the vulnerable body of the child at risk came to be reconstituted as central to the survival of nation, race and empire. Yet, as the shocking testimony before the many official enquiries into the past treatment of children in out-of-home 'care' held in Britain, Ireland, Australia and Canada make clear, there was no guarantee that the rescued child would be protected from further harm.

East Texas, 1958. Bis vor kurzem glaubte der dreizehnjährige Stanley noch an den Weihnachtsmann. Im Laufe eines einzigen heißen Sommers erfährt er jedoch mehr über die Welt jenseits seiner Superheldencomics und des elterlichen Autokinos, als ihm lieb ist. Stans Welt ist von Gewalt geprägt: Sein bester Freund wird zu Hause verprügelt, die Küchenhilfe lebt bei einem gewalttätigen Mann, und selbst Stans Vater wird handgreiflich, wenn es um die Familienehre geht – zum Beispiel gegen übereifrige Verehrer von Stans siebzehnjähriger Schwester. Das einzige Gegenprogramm liefern das Autokino von Stans Vater und die faszinierenden alten Geschichten um ein Spukhaus auf dem Hügel, einen kopflosen Geist am Bahndamm und zwei in ein und derselben Nacht ermordete Mädchen. Begleitet von seinem treuen Hund Nub und unterstützt von dem mürrischen schwarzen Filmvorführer und Ex-Polizisten Buster, beginnt Stan, Detektiv zu spielen – ohne zu ahnen, worauf er sich da eingelassen hat.
