Children's & YAThe Snowby. A Winter Wonder for Ole
by Lissa Lehmenkühler/Heidi Förster
This year, Ole is not looking forward at all to winter. He doesn’t like his new home and he really hates his new school. Especially because Rocco and his gang are making his life a misery. What he would like best of all is simply to run away and go to his grandfather Ottokar in Canada. But what’s this? Suddenly there’s a knock at Ole’s window and floating into the room comes – “Hellole, Ole” – a real live Snowby! And with a Snowby at Ole’s side, there can only be a wonderfully magic, wildly snowflaky winter! But when the Snowby himself is in danger, Ole must work wonders if he is to come to the rescue. Luckily he’s made some new friends he can rely on.

Children's & YAJanuary 2022Die Küstencrew - Das Gold der Walfänger
Ein interaktives Krimi-Abenteuer mit kniffligen Rätsel-Bildern
by Ocke Bandixen
Coast Crew (Vol. 1) - Whaler’s Gold An interactive Crime adventure with fiddly Quiz Illustrations On the rugged North Sea coast, just behind the dike, lies the sleepy little village of Breeksiel. Apart from a few tourists and seagulls, hardly anyone strays there. But appearances are deceptive: the sea washes great secrets, old legends and real crooks into the small coastal town. Solve exciting cases together with Jan, Rocco and Nele and help the three hobby detectives in their investigations! Watching the sunset from the harbor or strolling along the dike and searching the beach for treasures from the sea - Jan and Rocco can't imagine anything better. Together with Rocco's grandpa Hannes, they regularly bring their finds to the Klabauterbude, their secret hiding place in grandpa Hannes' workshop. When the two friends, together with Nele, one day come across a mysterious box in the slack water, a completely different wind suddenly blows in Breeksiel! Three dangerous crooks appear in the small coastal village, who want to get their hands on the box and seem to stop at nothing. Ose, Bernhard and Tolek carry weapons and are anything but harmless. What is the story behind this mysterious find? The three amateur detectives learn about the legend of the whalers: In former times the captured gold was stowed away in such boxes on the whalers' ships. The nasty guys know this too - a race across Breeksiel and against time takes place, in which the children are even held. But Jan, Rocco and Nele are able to arrest the crooks and solve the riddle of the gold in the box. This must be celebrated with a homemade dyke pizza before the next case awaits the coastal crew!

Business, Economics & LawJune 2019Overtourism
Excesses, Discontents and Measures in Travel and Tourism
by Claudio Milano, Joseph M Cheer, Marina Novelli
The 'overtourism' phenomenon is defined as the excessive growth of visitors leading to overcrowding and the consequencial suffering of residents, due to temporary and often seasonal tourism peaks, that lead to permanent changes in lifestyles, amenities and well-being. Enormous tensions in overtourism affected destinations have driven the intensification of policy making and scholarly attention toward seeking antidotes to an issue that is considered paradoxical and problematic. Moving beyond the 'top 10 things you can do about overtourism', this book examines the evolution of the phenomenon and explores the genesis of overtourism as well as the system dynamics underpinning it. With a rigorous scientific approach the book uses systems-thinking and contemporary paradigms around sustainable development, resilience planning and degrowth; while considering global economic, socio-political, environmental

September 2008Gute Vorsätze, schlechtes Karma
Geschichten vom Ende des Jahres
by Harriet Köhler, Karsten Kredel
Silvester: eigentlich nur ein Datum, aber eines, dem man sich schwer entziehen kann, wenn einem die Knaller um die Ohren fliegen und die Flucht aufs Land spätestens im Oktober geplant werden muss. Und die stillen Tage zwischen den Jahren, in die man nach Weihnachten satt und faul driftet: Die einen genießen sie, andere ergreift die Panik, wenn Rückschau und innere Einkehr drohen. Und immer wieder hofft man hartnäckig auf Erneuerung. Man möchte ein besserer Mensch werden, bewusster leben, weniger fernsehen. Siebzehn neue Geschichten über die Tage am Ende des Jahres. Was bringen sie außer Katerstimmung und hohen Rechnungen? Was genau geht da eigentlich zu Ende? Und was beginnt? Mit Texten von DBC Pierre, Detlef Kuhlbrodt, Rainer Schmidt, Thomas Pletzinger, Markus Kavka, Moritz von Uslar, Barbara Höfler, Thomas von Steinaecker, Claudio Gutteck, Susanne Heinrich, Anna von Bayern, Saskia Fischer, Andreas Stichmann, Tobias Hülswitt und Malin Schwerdtfeger.
