        Salzburger Bachmann Edition
        August 2022

        Salzburger Bachmann Edition

        Anrufung des Großen Bären | Ein Meilenstein der deutschsprachigen Lyrik nach 1945 | Erstmals mit ausführlichem Kommentar

        by Ingeborg Bachmann, Luigi Reitani

        Ingeborg Bachmanns zweite Lyriksammlung, Anrufung des Großen Bären (1956), enthält Verse, die wegen ihrer hohen Einprägsamkeit, der Kühnheit ihrer Metaphern und ihres zeitkritischen, ethisch motivierten Sprachgestus schon bei Erscheinen Aufsehen erregten und bald kanonisiert wurden. Es sind Gedichte, die radikale Fragen stellen und Themen wie Liebe, Selbstbestimmung, Verantwortung, Utopie mit scharfer denkerischer Freiheit in mitreißenden Klangbildern entfalten. Die neue Edition macht die raffiniert durchkomponierte Struktur der Sammlung sichtbar. Zum ersten Mal werden die Gedichte unter Berücksichtigung des Nachlasses ausführlich kommentiert und im kulturgeschichtlichen Diskurs der Zeit verortet. Das weitgespannte Netz von intertextuellen Bezügen, der Dialog mit Paul Celan, der philosophische Horizont, die Vielfalt an metrischen Formen, die verwickelte Editionsgeschichte und die kontroverse Rezeption werden exemplarisch dargestellt, so dass die Verse in ihrer unerschöpflichen Vitalität und Ausstrahlungskraft neu beleuchtet werden. Die Salzburger Bachmann Edition präsentiert die Prosa, Gedichte und Essays, Hörspiele, Libretti sowie die Korrespondenzen Ingeborg Bachmanns in Form einer integrierten Ausgabe. Die Texte werden ergänzt durch eingehende Kommentare auf dem gegenwärtigen Stand der Forschung, die Bachmanns Werk neu erschließen. Neben den zu Lebzeiten erschienenen Werken werden auch unbekannte nachgelassene Texte zugänglich gemacht.

        Radiation, Revised Edition

        Radiation, Revised Edition

        by James A. Mahaffey, Ph.D.

        The most dangerous component of nuclear science has always seemed to be radiation, the bio-destructive byproduct of fission. The act of fissioning a uranium or plutonium nucleus releases energy, and about 10 percent of this energy is in the form of intense, penetrating radiation. The entire measure of energy from fission can take thousands of years to fully materialize, and therein lies the problem. Long after the fission has occurred to produce power in a nuclear reactor, the power plant has worn out and been torn down, and the ground on which the power plant sat has been seeded in grass and returned to nature, a weak echo of the power production can still occur in the remaining fission byproducts. It is this lingering hint of danger that must be studied and understood for a complete survey of nuclear power and the technology that makes it possible. Radiation, Revised Edition explains the nature of radiation in its many forms. It explores what is and isn't dangerous about radiation, explaining its effects in matter in both living and non-living things. This comprehensive resource also examines the many industrial uses of radiation, from smoke detectors to dental X-rays; the many techniques used to detect and measure this invisible phenomenon; practical measures of radiation protection; and ways of treating radiation exposure. Complete with full-color photographs and illustrations, Radiation, Revised Edition is a timely guide written in accessible language that will appeal to high school and college students alike.

        Plant Diversity, Second Edition

        by J. Phil Gibson and Terri R. Gibson, Series Editor: William G. Hopkins

        Plants feed us, clothe us, provide us with the oxygen we breathe, and buffer our environment against change. In short, plants make life possible. Yet scientists estimate that more than 10 percent of the world's approximately 300,000 plant species are at risk of extinction, and huge swaths of tropical forests and other plant communities are being decimated daily. Plant Diversity, Second Edition surveys the world's plant diversity, from green algae through flowering plants, and presents the fascinating natural history and diversity of green plants in a taxonomic and evolutionary context. This title also asks and answers the questions: Why are there so many plant species in the world? And how can so many plants grow together in a given patch of prairie, forest, or wetland? Through the study of plant diversity, students will gain an appreciation of the natural world far beyond the classroom and the study of botany, to an understanding of how our actions impact the world around us. Plant Diversity, Second Edition is suitable as a supplementary text for a biology course or as recreational reading for the interested student.

        December 2003

        Intellectual Property Rights in Agricultural Biotechnology, 2nd Edition

        by Edited by Frederic H Erbisch, Karim M Maredia

        During the past twenty-five years, biotechnology has revolutionized agricultural research. The enormous potential, together with a landmark decision by the US Supreme Court to allow the patenting of genetically-engineered organisms has encouraged private sector companies to invest in agricultural biotechnology research programmes. This has contributed to a rapid growth in interest in intellectual property rights as applied to this subject.The first edition of this book was published in 1998. Now fully revised and updated it presents definitive information on intellectual property law in a simplified form (with a minimum of legal jargon). New chapters have been added which cover plant variety protection and farmers rights, and additional case studies.
