View Rights PortalBeeindruckend: Entdecken Sie Astrid Lindgren, die Verlegerin So leicht, wie sich ihre Kinderbücher lesen, so arbeitsreich war ihr Leben: In diesem spannenden Buch erzählt Kjell Bohlund, ehemaliger Verleger des schwedischen Kinderbuchverlags Rabén & Sjögren, in dem die Werke Astrid Lindgrens bis heute erscheinen, von den unbekannten Seiten der großen Autorin. Denn während sie morgens an ihren eigenen Geschichten schrieb, war die "Pippi Langstrumpf"-Autorin am Nachmittag Verlegerin und Lektorin, reiste durchs Land, traf sich mit Buchhändlern, Autoren, Illustratoren oder Journalisten und rettete ihren Verlag aus einer Krise. Eine Astrid Lindgren, die wir bislang so nicht kannten. Spannende Einblicke in das Leben der großen Autorin. Persönlich, unterhaltsam, überraschend. Geschrieben von Kjell Bohlund, einem Kenner der schwedischen Verlagsszene. Reich bebildert und kurzweilig erzählt.
The level of domestic abuse has been increasing for years, but often only cases of physical abuse hit the headlines. Hardly anyone talks about the mental, or psychological, abuse that usually precedes a physical or sexual assault. Those affected do not usually recognise the destructive dynamic in their relationship until far too late. In this book, three case histories illustrate the typical forms of mental abuse in relationships. In addition, experts explain the topic from psychological, therapeutic, political and legal perspectives, and the head of a counselling centre for male victims of mental abuse also has his say. An important and startling book.
"Sex sells" also applies to evolution. Without sex, there is no genetic variation, and without genetic variation, there is no natural selection and evolution. When it comes to sex and reproduction, all animals have things in common, but there are also many variations. In this game of the sexes, everything revolves around the conflicts of interest between females and males, the diversity of mating systems, matriarchal and patriarchal communities and the securing of paternity, whether through beauty, song and dance or violence.
