November 2014Jesus von Nazaret
Der sanfte Rebell
by Alois Prinz
Für die einen war er ein politischer Rebell, für die anderen der Messias und Gottes Sohn: Jesus von Nazaret. Seine Lehre und sein Leben sind nicht voneinander zu trennen. Alois Prinz zeichnet anschaulich das dramatische Leben dieses Mannes nach, der in einer politisch brisanten Zeit die Botschaft von Mitmenschlichkeit und göttlicher Liebe verbreitete und diese auch selbst lebte. Wir erfahren, unter welchen Lebensumständen Jesus aufwuchs, was ihn prägte, wie er handelte und was ihm wichtig war. Ein Leben, das seit über 2000 Jahren Orientierung ist für alle auf der Suche nach innerer Freiheit und Mitmenschlichkeit und das auch in der heutigen Zeit Wegweiser sein kann.

Mind, Body, SpiritMay the Loveforce Be With You
Kali-Ki Reiki: Healing Through Divine Mother & Yogic Wisdom
by Rajashree Maa
May the Loveforce Be With introduces a new lineage in energy healing, Kali-Ki ReikiTM, that was revealed to the author, Joni Dittrich, Ph.D. (Rajashree Maa), in a series of mystical encounters with the Divine Mother appearing as the goddess Kali Maa. The book brilliantly tells the stories of these encounters and presents the healing symbols that She revealed, explaining how these symbols can be used both for mind-body healing and spiritual awakening, or what Rajashree Maa calls "wisening." While traditional reiki systems also use symbols to transmit healing energy, the symbols introduced in Kali-Ki Reiki are seen as unique, three-dimensional, active, intelligent forms of light that tap into certain universal energy frequencies that are particularly attuned to the evolving conscious awareness as well as the personal and societal dilemmas of our current times. The fact that these symbols were revealed by Divine Mother to a woman in this era points to a need in today's world to re-establish our connection with the feminine forces of nature and spirit. The healing energy transmitted through these symbols is called Loveforce, which is considered to be the manifesting, creative, and healing power of the Limitless Love that is the Source of all that is.

October 2006Jesus Christus Erlöser und Fieber – Tagebuch eines Aussätzigen
by Klaus Kinski, Peter Geyer
Was als Auftakt zu einer weltweiten Tournee geplant war, geriet zum legendären Skandalauftritt: Als Klaus Kinski, Schauspieler und Weltstar, am 20. November 1971 in der Berliner Deutschlandhalle als Rezitator seines eigenen Textes Jesus Christus Erlöser auf die Bühne trat, war den meisten der 4000 Besucher weniger nach Kinskis kluger persönlicher Auseinandersetzung mit dem Neuen Testament zumute als vielmehr nach Provokation und Tumult in der Halle. Am Ende des Abends lauschte ihm nur noch eine Handvoll Menschen, als er – nun ohne Mikrophon – seine ganz eigene Version von Jesus’ Leben vortrug. Zum 80. Geburtstag von Klaus Kinski am 18. Oktober 2006 wird Jesus Christus Erlöser erstmals veröffentlicht, gemeinsam mit den Gedichten Fieber – Tagebuch eines Aussätzigen, die Kinski in den fünfziger Jahren schrieb und die bei ihrem Erscheinen 2001 vom Focus als »literarische Entdeckung des Jahres« bezeichnet wurden.

Literature & Literary StudiesJanuary 2013The Papal Reform of the Eleventh Century
Lives of Pope Leo IX and Pope Gregory VII
by I. Robinson
The eleventh-century papal reform transformed western European Church and society and permanently altered the relations of Church and State in the west. The reform was inaugurated by Pope Leo IX (1048-54) and given a controversial change of direction by Pope Gregory VII (1073-85). This book contains the earliest biographies of both popes, presented here for the first time in English translation with detailed commentaries. The biographers of Leo IX were inspired by his universally acknowledged sanctity, whereas the biographers of Gregory VII wrote to defend his reputation against the hostility generated by his reforming methods and his conflict with King Henry IV. Also included is a translation of Book to a Friend, written by Bishop Bonizo of Sutri soon after the death of Gregory VII, as well as an extract from the violently anti-Gregorian polemic of Bishop Benzo of Alba (1085) and the short biography of Leo IX composed in the papal curia in the 1090s by Bishop Bruno of Segni. These fascinating narrative sources bear witness to the startling impact of the papal reform and of the 'Investiture Contest', the conflict of empire and papacy that was one of its consequences. An essential collection of translated texts for students of medieval history.

Science & MathematicsMay 2020Optical Manipulation of Pests and Beneficial Arthropods
by David Ben-Yakir, Antoine Abrieux, Joanna C. Chiu, Joseph E. Funderbunk, Daphna Gottlieb, Gábor Horváth, Simcha Lev-Yadun, Un Taek Lim, Xavier Martini, Masami Shimoda, Robert van Tol
Arthropod pests, pollinators, and natural enemies of pests have a great economic importance to human health and food supply worldwide. Arthropods use optical cues to find food and suitable oviposition sites, daily and seasonal activities, orientation and navigation. Most arthropods have compound eyes with receptors for UV light (peak sensitivity at 360 nm) and for green-yellow light (peak sensitivity at 520-540 nm). Many arthropods also have simple eyes (ocelli) that respond to changes in light intensity. Some arthropods can detect linearly polarized light and use it as an optical cue for oviposition sites, finding of hosts and navigation.The properties of the optical cue, such as wavelength, intensity, polarization, size, shape and contrast, greatly affect their response to the optical cue. Therefore, manipulation of optical cues can interfere or enhance arthropods' activities and development. UV light has been used to attract insects for monitoring and control. The patterns of UV reflected from flowers and plants affect arthropods' preference to visit them. The absence of UV light often deters arthropods and decreases their dispersal rate. UVB induces general stress in plants which may increase their resistance to arthropod pests. Green-yellow color induces landing and favors settling (arresting) of many plant feeding arthropods. High levels of reflected sunlight (above 25% of sun radiation) deters arthropods' landing and reduces settling. The recent use of monochromatic lights to increase crop yield, or to induce desirable plant characteristics, is expected to affect the activity of the associated arthropds as well. Optical manipulations are proposed as a part of an integrated pest management (IPM) program for open-field and protected crops, and for protecting the health of humans and domestic animals. This book contains up-to-date reviews of the published literature, some unpublished results of the authors, and suggestions for future research and development of this method.

Mind, Body, SpiritScience, Being, & Becoming
The Spiritual Lives of Scientists
by Paul J. Mills, Ph.D.
Spirituality is the Final Frontier for ScienceContrary to popular belief, not all scientists are materialists fervently discounting the spiritual. Science, Being, & Becoming is about the spiritual lives of scientists, their actual transpersonal, metaphysical and mystical experiences. The book's material is derived from intimate interviews with over 30 scientists as they describe the circumstances under which they had the experiences and how those experiences changed their consciousness, transformed their belief systems about the nature of the world, and changed their scientific work.
