        Koch-Rezepte für Lina

        by Heinrich Hoffmann, Monika Hessenberg

        Heinrich Hoffmanns Struwwelpeter war 1844 als Geschenk für den Sohn Carl entstanden; der Tochter Caroline schenkte er im Sommer 1862 ein kleines Büchlein, in das er einige Lieblingsrezepte der Familie notiert hatte. Lina fügte nach und nach noch andere hinzu. Viele davon, vor allem die Süßspeisen, sind in der Hoffmann-Familie bis heute beliebt. Monika Hessenberg bereitet nach dem Rezeptbuch ihrer Urgroßmutter mit Vergnügen auch „Irish Stew“, „Kerbelsuppe“ und „Kartoffelgemüse“ zu. „Kümmel- und Käsestängchen“ dürfen bei keiner Familienfeier fehlen, „Haselnußschnitten“ und „Anis-Springer“ bei keinem Weihnachtsfest.

        Grandma Doesn't Talk

        China Story Picture Books

        by Lyu Lina

        China Story Picture Books is the first set of children's picture books launched by the Bingxin Award Committee. This set of books covers the works of seven Bingxin Award-winning writers of different ages including children's literature masters and promising young writers. The illustrations are full of traditional Chinese cultural elements such as dragon lantern dance, paper cutting, oil paper umbrella, and bamboo. Powerful painters at home and abroad are invited to do illustrations, which brings interesting fusion and collision of Chinese and foreign cultures to the books. In addition to the original illustrations, the stories are more touching. Every child can harvest the courage and wisdom for growing up from these stories.   The series consists of 7 picture books: The Dragon Lantern, The Path of Golden Flowers, The Child in Three-Story Attic, The School Day Gifts, The Secret of Crossing, The Slope of Sisters.   Grandma Doesn't Talk tells the story of "little Heidi" in China. Mai Xiaoduo's grandmother is wordless but has many skills. She can cut window flowers for the neighbors, knit sweaters, make medicine for Heidi's ailing grandfather, and take Mai Xiaoduo to the mountain to collect medicine and watch the sunset. Although grandma doesn't talk too much, her scissors, needles and frying pans can talk. In the process of accompanying her grandmother, Mai Xiaoduo heard the sound of life, history, and flowers, trees and the wind in nature.

        At home with the poor

        Consumer behaviour and material culture in England, c. 1650-1850

        by Joseph Harley

        This book opens the doors to the homes of the forgotten poor and traces the goods they owned before, during and after the industrial revolution (c. 1650-1850). Using a vast and diverse range of sources, it gets to the very heart of what it meant to be 'poor' by examining the homes of the impoverished and mapping how numerous household goods became more widespread. As the book argues, poverty did not necessarily equate to owning very little and living in squalor. In fact, its novel findings show that most of the poor strove to improve their domestic spheres and that their demand for goods was so great that it was a driving force of the industrial revolution.

        Bovine Tuberculosis

        by Mark Chambers, Stephen Gordon, Francisco Olea-Popelka, Paul Barrow

        This book is contemporary, topical and global in its approach, and provides an essential, comprehensive treatise on bovine tuberculosis and the bacterium that causes it, Mycobacterium bovis. Bovine tuberculosis remains a major cause of economic loss in cattle industries worldwide, exacerbated in some countries by the presence of a substantial wildlife reservoir. It is a major zoonosis, causing human infection through consumption of unpasteurised milk or by close contact with infected animals. Following a systematic approach, expert international authors cover epidemiology and the global situation; microbial virulence and pathogenesis; host responses to the pathogen; and diagnosis and control of the disease. Aimed at researchers and practising veterinarians, this book is essential for those needing comprehensive information on the pathogen and disease, and offers a summary of key information learned from human tuberculosis research. It will be useful to those studying the infection and for those responsible for controlling the disease.
