by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Michael F. Holick
Vitamin D deficiency is a global health problem that puts the quality of life and life expectancy of more than a billion children and adults at risk worldwide.

This 4th updated edition incorporates numerous new insights into the therapeutic effect of vitamin D, including its importance for a healthy pregnancy, prenatal imprinting, optimum sporting performance, diabetes mellitus and autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis or multiple sclerosis. Since the metabolism and the effect of vitamin D are supported by a complex network of micronutrients – for example, magnesium, vitamin A or vitamin K – a specific chapter is devoted to this network. Here, the reader can discover how vitamin D successfully protects against diseases, improves the quality of life and optimises medication and treatment!

Agricultural scienceJanuary 2017Flower Breeding and Genetics (In 2 Parts)
by Manjunath S.Patil & Anil R. Karale
The large volumes of research works that have been done, and the information accumulated over the years necessitated the need for immediate publication of a good updated text book on breeding ornamental flower crops to keep the readers abreast with the current literature and development in the subject. It presents the breeding work on 37 ornamental and flower crops and describes the skills necessary for taking up the cultivar improvement program on these flowers. The opening chapters are meant to provide basic information to the subject, history and development of ornamental plant breeding and major work going on at global level. The major part of the book then considers breeding of all economically important ornamental and flower crops of tropical, sub-tropical and temperate regions. Each chapter is supported by a comprehensive list of bibliography to facilitate readers, locating finer details of the past and recent work of the crop(s). To help readers, some topics in a chapter are broken down into short sub-sections in order to convey the gist of a subject area. The book will serve as an excellent source of reference for flower scientists and teachers too. Additionally, it should be useful to others (enlightened growers, nurserymen, flower traders, agricultural extension officers and policy makers) who wish to become familiar with the topic in relation to their professional interest. However, a basic knowledge of botany and genetics is preferable to fully appreciate the text.

Business, Economics & LawJanuary 2026Sovereignty disputes and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea
A public order perspective
by Thomas D. Grant
Because maritime questions are often admixed with territorial sovereignty questions, parties sometimes seek to settle them together. Jurisdiction under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea-UNCLOS-according to the received view does not encompass disputes concerning territorial sovereignty. In this book, international law scholar and practitioner Thomas D. Grant argues that the received view overstates the exclusion of sovereignty disputes. In Coastal State Rights, UNCLOS Annex VII arbitrators overstated the scope of the term 'sovereignty dispute' as well, an error of definition compounded when they ignored evidence probative as to whether a sovereignty dispute exists. Examining UNCLOS, its drafting history, and decades of decided cases, Sovereignty Disputes and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea relates an important problem of international dispute settlement to the public order of which UNCLOS forms part.

June 2017Die Korrespondenz
by J. D. Daniels, Frank Jakubzik
»Existenzielle Unbehaustheit« mag eine große alte Formel sein, aber sie beschreibt doch die Überforderungen, mit denen wir heute zu kämpfen haben: Vorgezeichnete Karrierewege waren einmal, Überlieferungen sind abgerissen, Rollenvorbilder funktionieren nicht mehr. Besonders zu leiden haben darunter oft Männer: Man spürt sich nicht, man grübelt zu viel, man hätte gern mehr Abenteuer – »toxische Männlichkeit«. In sechs essayistischen Briefen, verfasst aus unterschiedlichen Lebenssituationen heraus, erkundet J. D. Daniels die Dilemmata unserer Zeit – und (vermeintliche) Wege, ihnen zu entkommen: Kampfsport, Reisen, Gruppentherapie, die Flucht in Verschwörungstheorien. Daniels schreibt entwaffnend offen, mit scharfem Witz und knapper Brillanz. Seine Briefe fügen sich zu einem düster-ironischen Panorama, das »jeder lesen sollte, der sich für das moderne Leben interessiert« (John Jeremiah Sullivan).

April 1969Phänomenologie der Erfahrung
by Ronald D. Laing, Klaus Figge, Waltraud Stein
Ronald D. Laings Studie über Formen menschlicher Erfahrung zeigt, wie mit Hilfe sozialpsychologischer und psychoanalytischer Ansätze gesellschaftliche Strukturen begriffen werden können. Psychische Defekte sind für ihn nicht Probleme des einzelnen, sondern Reaktionen der Subjekte auf krankmachende Gesellschaftsstrukturen, die Psychiatrie individualisiert das Problem nur. Erst wenn die Vereinzelten, und das sind letztlich alle Mitglieder der bürgerlichen Gesellschaft, sich ihrer selbst und ihres Gegenübers durch Erfahrung im emphatischen Sinn wirklich bewußt werden, kann der Zustand des schlechten Ganzen aufgehoben werden.
