January 2023Ich bin ein bisschen schüchtern
by Anna Böhm, Tim Warnes
In "Ich bin ein bisschen schüchtern" von Anna Böhm geht es um das Kätzchen Nora, das sich mit seiner Schüchternheit auseinandersetzt, besonders als ein neuer, lauter Nachbar ins Haus zieht. Nora fühlt sich unwohl mit der Aufmerksamkeit und würde sich am liebsten verstecken, anstatt sich der neuen Situation zu stellen. Die gut gemeinten Ratschläge der anderen, sie solle doch nicht so schüchtern sein, machen alles nur noch schlimmer. Doch als Nora entdeckt, dass sie nicht allein mit ihren Gefühlen ist und dass ihre Schüchternheit sie in einer besonderen Situation zur Heldin macht, beginnt sie, Vertrauen in sich selbst zu fassen. Diese Wendung zeigt, dass Schüchternheit eine Stärke sein kann und dass Geduld und Verständnis entscheidend sind, um schüchternen Kindern zu helfen, Selbstvertrauen zu entwickeln. Die Geschichte wird durch die liebevollen Illustrationen von Tim Warnes bereichert, die Noras Emotionen und die Welt um sie herum lebhaft zum Leben erwecken. "Ich bin ein bisschen schüchtern" ist nicht nur eine Geschichte über die Überwindung von Schüchternheit, sondern auch ein Plädoyer für Akzeptanz und Verständnis gegenüber den Gefühlen anderer. Es ist eine einfühlsame Bilderbuchgeschichte, die Kindern ab 4 Jahren zeigt, dass es völlig in Ordnung ist, schüchtern zu sein, und dass jeder auf seine Weise und in seinem eigenen Tempo Zutrauen fassen kann. Positive Botschaft über Schüchternheit: Zeigt Kindern, dass Schüchternheit akzeptiert und verstanden werden sollte und keine Schwäche ist. Förderung des Selbstbewusstseins: Hilft Kindern zu erkennen, dass sie mit ihren Gefühlen nicht allein sind und dass sie Stärken in sich tragen, die sie besonders machen. Liebevolle Illustrationen: Tim Warnes' Bilder geben der Geschichte eine warme, einladende Atmosphäre, die Kinder anspricht. Empfehlung von Stiftung Lesen: Unterstützt durch eine renommierte Bildungseinrichtung, was die Qualität und den pädagogischen Wert des Buches unterstreicht. Bewältigung eines typischen Kleinkind-Gefühls: Ideal für Eltern und Erzieher, um mit Kindern über Schüchternheit und Selbstvertrauen zu sprechen. Herz und Humor: Anna Böhm und Tim Warnes haben ein Werk geschaffen, das mit viel Liebe zum Detail und einem Verständnis für die Emotionen der Kinder überzeugt. Breite Zielgruppe: Ansprechend für Kinder ab 4 Jahren, bietet es Anknüpfungspunkte für Gespräche über Gefühle und Selbstakzeptanz.

Agronomy & crop productionApril 1997Sustainability of Rice Farming
by Edited by D J Greenland
Rice has supported a greater number of people for a longer period of time than any other crop. Nearly half of the global population is dependent on rice as its major staple food. While Asia remains the main centre of production and consumption of rice, the importance of rice is increasing rapidly in Africa and Latin America, and exports of rice from the United States and Australia are of major importance to the world rice trade. This book explores the factors which have contributed to the sustainability of rice production over the eight or nine thousand years for which rice has been produced. Sustainability is defined as the maintenance or improvement of production levels and protection of natural resources, within the context of economic viability and social acceptability. The author covers a wide range of issues, including soil fertility, plant breeding, pest management, irrigation, land degradation and social and economic factors. Greatest emphasis is placed on the special features of wetland rice production, and the importance of the nutrient balance. It is also shown that without the Green Revolution there would have been a period of mass starvation in Asia, a problem which continues to threaten and which will be unavoidable unless the successes of the Green Revolution can be sustained. The book provides a unique review of the sustainability of the production of the world’s most important crop, and should be of interest to students, research workers and policy makers in agriculture, soil science, and agricultural economics and food policies, as well as all interested in development in the third world.

April 2017Theorien des Essens
by Kikuko Kashiwagi-Wetzel, Anne-Rose Meyer
Die theoretische Beschäftigung mit dem Essen ist zentraler Bestandteil diverser Disziplinen – etwa in der Soziologie und der Ethnologie, der Philosophie und der Psychologie sowie auch in den Religions- und Kulturwissenschaften. Die Zubereitung und Aufnahme von Nahrung sind zudem von großer gesellschaftlicher Relevanz und medial omnipräsent – neuerdings vor allem in Diskussionen um gesunde, ökologisch nachhaltige und tierfreundliche Ernährung. Der Band bietet einen Überblick über maßgebliche Theorien des Essens: von bahnbrechenden Ansätzen in der Moderne, etwa von Georg Simmel und Sigmund Freud, über die ethischen Überlegungen Peter Singers bis hin zu Texten von Julia Kristeva und Jacques Derrida, die hier erstmals in deutscher Übersetzung erscheinen.
