        Their aim has been to teach English to learners of all ages taking into account the innate language instict people have and try to facilitate the learning process benefiting from this. In that direction, verb-based language structures are taught which highlight the linguistic mechanisms that are naturally activated in the learner's linguistic resources. By doing so, learning a foreign language comes easy, owing to assisting the linguistic mechanism which leads to speaking complete and meaningful phrases right from the very first lesson through the dynamic approach of systematic questioning and answering.

        Briefwechsel mit Thankmar von Münchhausen 1913 bis 1925
        November 2020

        Briefwechsel mit Thankmar von Münchhausen 1913 bis 1925

        by Rainer Maria Rilke, Thankmar Münchhausen, Joachim W. Storck, Maleen Gräfin Hatzfeld, Hieronyma Baronin Speyart van Woerden

        Im Berliner Salon seiner Mutter hatte Thankmar von Münchhausen (1893 - 1979) den jungen Rilke 1899 kennengelernt. Ein Jahr vor Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkriegs begegnen sich Thankmar und der bereits berühmte Dichter zum zweitenmal, diesmal in Paris. Rilke lädt den Studenten der École des Droits ein, ihn zu besuchen. Damit beginnt eine Freundschaft, die sich auch in dem über zehn Jahre geführten Briefwechsel ausspricht.In den Briefen zu Anfang des Jahres 1914 wird deutlich, wie unerwartet der Kriegsbeginn die Freunde traf. Thankmar von Münchhausen war der französischen Kultur ebenso verbunden wie Rilke, auch in späteren Jahren. Von 1937 bis 1939 war er Leiter des Goethe-Hauses in Paris; 1949 gab er Rilkes Französische Gedichte im Insel Verlag erstmals heraus.Die Briefe, die Rilke und der damalige Student der Nationalökonomie und Jurisprudenz gewechselt haben, werden hier zum ersten Mal veröffentlicht. Sie zeigen Rilkes Begabung, auf die individuellen Probleme Jüngerer einzugehen, ähnlich wie der Briefwechsel mit einer jungen Frau und die Briefe an einen jungen Dichter. Der Reiz der Korrespondenz mit Münchhausen liegt in dem ungezwungenen, gesprächsnahen Ton und in der Direktheit, mit der beide sich über aktuelle Bücher, gemeinsame Bekannte oder tagespolitische und zeitgeschichtliche Ereignisse austauschen.

        Münchhausen

        Wunderbare Reisen zu Wasser und zu Lande, Feldzüge und lustige Abenteuer des Freiherrn von Münchhausen wie er dieselben bei einer Flasche im Zirkel seiner Freunde selbst zu erzählen pflegte

        by Gottfried August Bürger, Stefanie Harjes, Matthias Reiner

        Den Baron von Münchhausen hat es wirklich gegeben, seine haarsträubenden Reiseabenteuer »zu Wasser und zu Lande« hat er zwar nicht selbst niedergeschrieben, aber sie wurden schon nach kurzer Zeit in Deutschland und England zum Bestseller, bald auch in viele andere Sprachen übersetzt und schließlich mehrfach verfilmt. »Durch Lügen kann man also berühmt werden? Aber nur, wenn man so zu lügen versteht wie Münchhausen, nicht etwa um die Leser zu beschwindeln, sondern um sie mit ihrem vollen Einverständnis lächelnd zu unterhalten.« (Erich Kästner) Für diese Ausgabe hat die vielfach ausgezeichnete Illustratorin Stefanie Harjes die schönsten Geschichten des »Lügenbarons« mit ihren unverwechselbaren Bildern versehen.

        Counter-terror by proxy

        The Spanish State's illicit war with ETA

        by Emmanuel Pierre Guittet

        Between 1983 and 1987, mercenaries adopting the pseudonym GAL (Grupos Antiterroristas de Liberación, Antiterrorist Liberation Group) paid by the Spanish treasury and relying upon national intelligence support were at war with the Basque militant group ETA (Euskadi (e)Ta Askatasuna, Basque Country and Freedom). Over four years, their campaign of extrajudicial assassinations spanned the French-Spanish border. Nearly thirty people were killed in a campaign comprised of torture, kidnapping, bombing and the assassination of suspected ETA activists and Basque refugees. This establishment of unofficial counterterrorist squads by a Spanish Government was a blatant detour from legality. It was also a rare case in Europe where no less than fourteen high-ranking Spanish police officers and senior government officials, including the Minister of Interior himself, were eventually arrested and condemned for counter-terrorism wrongdoings and illiberal practices. Thirty years later, this campaign of intimidation, coercion and targeted killings continues to grip Spain. The GAL affair was not only a serious example of a major departure from accepted liberal democratic constitutional principles of law and order, but also a brutal campaign that postponed by decades the possibility of a political solution for the Basque conflict. Counter-terror by proxy uncovers why and how a democratic government in a liberal society turned to a 'dirty war' and went down the route of illegal and extrajudicial killing actions. It offers a fuller examination of the long-term implications of the use of unorthodox counter-terrorist strategies in a liberal democracy.

        Proxy war in Afghanistan

        The politics of state-wrecking

        by Abbas Farasoo

        This book provides a compelling analysis of proxy warfare and its far-reaching implications for statehood, focusing on the conflict in Afghanistan. Introducing the innovative concept of "state-wrecking," it bridges theory and practice to unravel how external support for insurgent actors fuels violence, undermines territorial control and sovereignty, intensifies violence, and dismantles political legitimacy. The work shifts the discourse on proxy wars from the strategies of global powers to the procedural and structural impacts within target states. Grounded in rigorous empirical research, including interviews, archival data, and conflict analysis, the book critically examines the Pakistan-Taliban nexus and the limitations of US-led interventions. By blending a robust theoretical framework with in-depth case studies, it reveals how proxy dynamics shape conflicts, disrupt governance, and challenge international security. This is an essential resource for those seeking to understand the entanglements of modern warfare and the fragility of states under external influence.

        Das mißhandelte Kind

        by Mary Edna Helfer, Ruth S. Kempe, Richard D. Krugman, Ulrike Stopfel, Petra Bohne, Reinhard Herborth, Regine Strotbek, Jörg M. Fegert, Ludwig Salgo

        The Battered Child ist seit der ersten Auflage 1968 das einflußreichste interdisziplinär angelegte Standardwerk zur Kindesmißhandlung in den USA. Seine Herausgeber machten Kindesmißhandlung und Kinderschutzpolitik über Nacht zu einem nationalen und internationalen Thema und prägten über Jahrzehnte maßgeblich die weitere Entwicklung. Seitdem ist die Forschung zur Kindesmißhandlung zu einem wichtigen Bereich der medizinischen, psychologischen und soziologischen Forschung geworden. Aus einem ehemals schmalen Band wurde nun in der fünften, stark erweiterten Auflage ein Kompendium von nahezu tausend Seiten, für das wieder ein hochrangiges Autorenteam gewonnen werden konnte. Behandelt werden nunmehr neben der Mißhandlung im engeren Sinne auch Vernachlässigung, sexueller Mißbrauch und seltenere Mißhandlungsformen wie etwa das »Münchhausen-by-proxy-Syndrome«. Medizinische und psychodynamische, therapeutische und präventive, sozioökonomische, sozial- und rechtspolitische Aspekte werden beleuchtet und machen das Werk unentbehrlich für Theorie und Praxis des Kinderschutzes.Nach der ersten deutschen übersetzung, welche die Anfänge der hiesigen Diskussion entscheidend mitbestimmt hat, wird die jetzt vorliegende übersetzung der fünften Auflage seit langem erwartet und zweifellos zu einem neuen Standardwerk und Handbuch für Ärzte und Psychologen, Juristen und Pädagogen, Soziologen und Sozialarbeiter.

        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.

        Why ADHD is Not a Disease

        A polemic

        by Amrei Wittwer

        In some European countries, one in four children is now diagnosed with ADHD (attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder) due to their socially disruptive behaviour. The treatment usually consists of suppressing the symptoms with psychostimulants such as Ritalin. This treatment does not improve school performance, but it curbs the children’s creativity and may stigmatise them for their entire lives. Taking an opposing viewpoint, ADHD expert Dr. Amrei Wittwer focuses on the physical and psychological well-being of the affected children. Because almost all “ADHD patients“ are facing difficulties in relationships with adults, she considers that a solution begins with the children’s domestic and school environments, instruction of parents and teachers, and by using therapeutic approaches rather than simply sedating the children. “Children are our future”, is a common theme in Sunday speeches. Anyone who takes this point seriously, whether or not they themselves are immediately affected, should think about this important topic.

        Sexually Transmitted Infections and AIDS in the Tropics

        by Edited by Om P Arya, Charles A Hart

        Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) are a major public health problem both in their own right and because of their link with HIV infection. This has elevated their control to an absolute priority throughout the world. In developing countries, which account for approximately 75% of the easily curable STI, as estimated by the WHO, and where sexually transmitted HIV infection has reached epidemic proportions, the need is most acute. Here AIDS is claiming hundreds of thousands of lives and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. In addition, because of inadequate resources, the sequelae of STI (e.g. infertility and some cancers) contribute greatly to ill-health in the tropics. This book written by acknowledged experts working or with experience in tropical countries, gives clear, concise and up to date knowledge and understanding on all aspects of Sexually Transmitted Infections. It should be useful for all those involved in the appropriate management and control of STI in various settings, ranging from peripheral and rural and urban health care centres to large hospitals. It will also be invaluable for students of tropical medicine, medical microbiology and genito-urinary medicine.

        by Stanisław Lem, Hubert Schumann

        "Ein Roman? Nicht genug. Ein Buch, das über die Ufer tritt und mitreißt, was Formen und Inhalte zu bieten imstande sind. Der Erzähler heißt Ijon Tichy. Die Leser der »Sterntagebücher« erinnern sich dieses kosmischen Münchhausen; hier nimmt er seine Arbeit wieder auf: als Forscher, Berichterstatter, Reisender im Irdischen und Außerirdischen. Tichys Erlebnisse und Beobachtungen in Kurdland, in den Grenzgebieten und in Losannien faßt das Kapitel »Lokaltermin« zusammen. Insbesondere wird von der Ethikosphäre in Losannien berichtet, deren Einführung durch die nicht mehr zu kontrollierende Zunahme von Gewalttaten unvermeidbar geworden war. Und angesichts dieser ethifizierten Welt erörtert Tichy die Frage, ob ein solch frevelfreier Zustand Auswirkungen auf die Unsterblichkeit haben könnte."
