Thriller | Rabenschwarzer Horror in der Hauptstadt | Eine fantastische Mischung aus Polizei- und Horrorroman
by Jesús Cañadas
Aus einem katholischen Mädcheninternat in Berlin ist die 16-jährige Rebecca Lilienthal verschwunden. Die beiden Kommissare Otto Ritter und Lukas Kocay machen sich auf die Suche nach ihr. Es scheint, als sei Rebecca einem Kult in Hände gefallen, der darauf spezialisiert ist, abenteuerlustige Mädchen und Frauen aus der Berliner Clubszene zu fangen, zu vergewaltigen und zu töten. Im Mittelpunkt dieser sinistren Aktivitäten steht ein Club namens »Das Loch« und dessen charismatischer Chef, der sich Laszlo Gupta nennt. Auf der Suche nach Rebecca stoßen die Polizisten auf immer mehr Hinweise auf eine »Raucherzone«, einen geheimen Ort unvorstellbarer Orgien und Laster. Und hinter Gupta zeichnet sich eine noch viel dunklere Gestalt ab: der König, ein mysteriöses, angeblich grauenhaft anzusehendes Monster. Aber wer hat den König schon je gesehen? Der Tod ist allerdings nur der Anfang und kann der Selbstermächtigung von Frauen keinen Einhalt gebieten.

Picture storybooksJanuary 2016Kaaljayi Kambakth (The Time-Conqueror Wretch)
Diary of a Time-keeper
by Amit Dutta
Sham is a precocious schoolboy who dreams about making sense of the world he inhabits. Shaman, his friend and alter-ego prods him along. They walk together exploring the gullies and outskirts of their suburban hill village. They passionately glean whatever information is available to them through books or people. They make patterns out of this information and scheme to gain control over their reality. The villagers become characters in their scheme and start revealing the cracks in their reality. As fragments of science, philosophy, fairy-tales, folk-legends and history start seeping into their everyday existence, Sham and Shan find themselves deep in an unmanageable world of their own fantasies.

Humanities & Social SciencesFebruary 2025Global counter-terrorism
by Tahir Abbas, Sylvia I. Bergh, Sagnik Dutta
This collection aims to inaugurate a new direction in research on counterterrorism by exploring global connections - both in terms of practices and discourses, as well as shared ideas and epistemes - that animate counterterrorism practices. The chapters - grouped under the themes of postcoloniality and coloniality, and entanglements of the transnational and the local, and counterterrorism and right-wing extremism - are attentive to global connections and are mindful of the complexities of global historical processes that constitute the politics of counterterrorism. This book aims to bring together scholars studying counterterrorism in the global North and the global South to explore convergence and divergence in how counterterrorism policies function in a range of national and local contexts.

Air pollution has become a major global issue due to rapid industrialization, human population growth and increasing urbanization. The various sources of atmospheric pollutants, both those created by human activity and those from natural physical and biological processes, have become the focus of much scientific research and analysis. An understanding of how these many pollutants are affecting air quality is essential in order to design strategies to mitigate them. Written by a team of international experts, this book aims to provide a broad overview of the issues surrounding air pollution and how to control and monitor pollution levels. Beginning with a brief background on the subject, the book moves on to discuss global emissions, with an emphasis on megacities and their effects. Possible pollution control measures and methods of air pollution measurement and modelling are also explored. The book ends with descriptions of the various indices used for assessing air quality with a focus on human health impacts, and a discussion on policy making to control air pollution. The book will be useful to students of environmental science and atmospheric science, as well as environmental consultants and researchers interested in air quality . Key Features: Comprehensive introduction to the primary causes of air pollution today with an emphasis on growing urban populations and megacities Discusses both anthropogenic and biogenic emissions and their effects on human health and the environment Gives an overview of indices used today for assessing air quality and describes current methods for air pollution monitoring and modelling Discusses new technologies for mitigating the effects of air pollution and policy making for implementation of controls
