September 1998Koch-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.

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.

December 2007Die Romantischen
Roman
by Pankaj Mishra, Barbara Schaden
Samar, ein weltfremder junger Mann von knapp 20 Jahren, Anwärter auf den Staatsdienst, ist meist in ein Buch vertieft; in den Klassikern der europäischen Literatur sucht er seinen Lebenssinn. Dann trifft er in Benares, der heiligen Stadt am Gangesufer, auf zwei Frauen, die seine Gefühle in Aufruhr versetzen: die eine, Miss West, führt ihn in eine Gruppe europäischer Aussteiger ein, die in Indien auf der Suche nach einer Art exotischer Wahrheit sind, die andere, Catherine, öffnet ihn für die Liebe und das Unglück. Pankaj Mishras Erfolgsroman Die Romantischen ist das Drama einer Selbstfindung und zugleich ein vielschichtiges Porträt des modernen Indien. Sinnlich und atmosphärisch, in der Tradition von E. M. Forster und V. S. Naipaul, erzählt der Autor von der illusionären Romanze zwischen Ost und West.

April 2017Die große Regression
Eine internationale Debatte über die geistige Situation der Zeit
by Arjun Appadurai, Zygmunt Bauman, Donatella Porta, Nancy Fraser, Eva Illouz, Ivan Krastev, Bruno Latour, Paul Mason, Pankaj Mishra, Robert Misik, Oliver Nachtwey, César Rendueles, Wolfgang Streeck, David Reybrouck, Slavoj Žižek, Heinrich Geiselberger
Spätestens seit sich die Folgen der Finanzkrise abzeichnen und die Migration in die Europäische Union zunimmt, sehen wir uns mit Entwicklungen konfrontiert, die viele für Phänomene einer längst vergangenen Epoche hielten: dem Aufstieg nationalistischer, teils antiliberaler Parteien wie dem Front National und der AfD, einer tiefgreifenden Krise der EU, einer Verrohung des öffentlichen Diskurses durch Demagogen wie Donald Trump, wachsendem Misstrauen gegenüber den etablierten Medien und einer Verbreitung fremdenfeindlicher Einstellungen, die an dunkle Zeiten gemahnt. Politiker werden als »Vaterlandsverräter« verunglimpft, Muslime unter Generalverdacht gestellt, im Internet werden die krudesten Verschwörungstheorien propagiert. In diesem Band untersuchen international renommierte Forscher und Intellektuelle die Ursachen dieser »Großen Regression«, verorten sie in einem historischen Kontext, erörtern Szenarien für die nächsten Jahre und diskutieren Strategien, mit denen wir diesen Entwicklungen entgegentreten können. Mit Beiträgen von Arjun Appadurai, Zygmunt Bauman, Donatella della Porta, Nancy Fraser, Eva Illouz, Ivan Krastev, Bruno Latour, Paul Mason, Pankaj Mishra, Robert Misik, Oliver Nachtwey, César Rendueles, Wolfgang Streeck, David Van Reybrouck, Slavoj Žižek.

MedicineApril 2018Bovine 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.

August 2010Ich wär gern wie ich bin
Roman
by Gunnhild Øyehaug, Ebba D. Drolshagen
Sigrid liebt Magnus, der mit seiner neuen Liebe Linnea nach Prag gereist ist. Sigrids Idol, der Schriftsteller Kåre Tryvle, ist zu einem Vortrag nach Bergen gekommen und verliebt sich in Sigrid. Aber nach der ersten gemeinsamen Nacht stellt er fest, daß er Wanda zurückhaben will, die Bassistin in einer Frauenrockband, von der er sich nach einem Streit getrennt hat. Es ging um Tarantinos Kill Bill 2 und um Uma Thurman, die in Teil 1 viel tougher war. Tough wollen sie sein, weil es dann einfacher ist, das Leben zu meistern: Sigrid und Wanda, aber auch Linnea, die Regisseurin. Doch was passiert, wenn Stärke sich in Schwäche verwandelt? In eine Schwäche für Männer? Dürfen wir sein, wie wir sind, fragt sich Sigrid, oder müssen wir uns in zu großen Männerhemden verstecken, um verletzlich auszusehen und geliebt zu werden? Und warum greift selbst Sofia Coppolas Lost in Translation zu diesem Trick? „Du liebe Güte, was für ein Buch! Einfallsreich und lebendig, in Sprache wie Handlung. Der norwegische Roman des Jahres! Die Lektüre ein pures Fest.“ Aftenposten

Improved quality of life with the right vitamins and minerals
by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Klaus Kisters
Cancer patients often suffer from malnutrition. Not only do they lack energy-providing macronutrients such as protein, fats and carbohydrates, they particularly lack the micronutrients that regulate the metabolism. Micronutrients such as vitamin D, selenium, L-carnitine, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin C significantly contribute to supporting the immune system of cancer patients, reducing inflammatory processes, alleviating the side effects of cancer therapy, and improving their quality of life. This patient guide provides information about the relationship between cancer, malnutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, the influence of cancer therapeutics on micronutrient balance, and how cancer patients can support their therapy and improve their quality of life with a controlled intake of micronutrient
