Out There, in the Forest & Ein Ro’eem
Two Plays
by Shmuel Cohavy
Ein Ro'eem is a comedy that takes place on a kibbutz in Israel. Some kibbutz members create a show for a children's celebration and rehearse in a field amid successful and unsuccessful love affairs that threaten to derail the performance. Meanwhile, the kibbutz decides to cut down part of its unprofitable orchard, inspiring orchard workers to strike. Will they save the orchard? Will the love affairs survive? And will the show succeed? In Out There, in the Forest, three plots are intertwined. A British journalist is intrigued by a mysterious masked murderer in The East African Republic and travels there to find him. Who is this murderer? Is there a reason for his attacks, or is he simply a lunatic? He desperately wants to look the murderer in the eyes. Meanwhile, three American women struggle with harsh living conditions in a cave in the jungle. Will they survive their battle against nature? Simultaneously, the local population rebels against their ruler, who rose to power in a military coup. Will their revolt succeed or will they continue to endure the harsh regime? Shmuel Cohavy is an Israeli writer who spent most of his youth on a kibbutz. He also worked at the Timna copper mines and studied history and filmmaking at Tel Aviv University. Although Cohavy’s plays have been presented in the Finborough Theatre in London, this book marks the first time his plays have been published in English. An English-language eBook edition was published in late 2014 by Samuel Wachtman’s Sons, Inc., CA. 314 pages, 15 x 22.5 cm

Zwei Fürsten und eine Königin
by Shmuel David
Zwei Fürsten und eine Königin: Ein menschliches Drama über die Donau von Shmuel David Alans sterbender Vater erzählt traurig über seine erste Liebe, Inge, die er unter tragischen Umständen verlassen musste. Er fleht Alan an, herauszufinden, was aus ihr geworden ist. Alan zieht es daraufhin unaufhaltsam in die Vergangenheit. Er studiert die Tagebücher seines Vaters sowie andere Interviews, Briefe sowie Tagebücher von Überlebenden, einschließlich der Briefe von Inges Freund und Inges Todeslagertagebuch. Stück für Stück deckt er die schreckliche Geschichte des Leidensweges der jungen Liebenden entlang der Donau auf, zusammen mit Hunderten anderen, die versuchten, in dem historischen Fiasko der „Kladovo-Sabac-Affäre“ vor den Nazis nach Israel zu fliehen. In diesem historischen Roman geht es nicht nur um eine berührende Liebesgeschichte, sondern es werden auch die unglückseligen, realen Geschichten anderer Personen erzählt, die die Reise geprägt haben. Das Schreiben war für Shmuel David, einem leidenschaftlichen Softwareentwickler und Schriftsteller, schon immer eine Selbstverständlichkeit. Dieser erste Roman in voller Länge basiert auf der wahren, herzzerreißenden Geschichte des Schicksalswegs seines Vaters durch das im Krieg zerrissene Jugoslawien in den Staat Israel.

Two Princes and a Queen
A Human Drama on the Danube
by Shmuel David
Alan’s dying father mumbles mournfully about his first love, Inge, whom he was forced to leave under tragic circumstances. He implores Alan to find out what became of her. Alan becomes inexorably drawn to delving into the past. He pores over his father’s journals as well as other survivor interviews, letters, and journals, including the letters of Inge’s friend, and Inge’s death camp diary. Bit by bit, he uncovers the horrendous story of the young lovers’ harrowing voyage down the Danube River along with Hundreds of others attempting to flee the Nazis for Israel in a historic fiasco that came to be called the Kladovo-Sabac Affair. While focusing on a touching love story, this historical novel also tells the ill-fated, real-life stories of other people who shaped the journey. Writing has always been second nature to Shmuel David, a software developer expert by profession, and a writer in heart. This, his first full-length novel, is based on the true, heart-rending story of his father’s horrendous voyage from war-torn Yugoslavia to pre-State Israel. 558 Pages, 15X22.5 CM

Humanities & Social SciencesFebruary 2023No masters but God
Portraits of anarcho-Judaism
by Hayyim Rothman
The forgotten legacy of religious Jewish anarchism, and the adventures and ideas of its key figures, finally comes to light in this book. Set in the decades surrounding both world wars, No masters but God identifies a loosely connected group of rabbis and traditionalist thinkers who explicitly appealed to anarchist ideas in articulating the meaning of the Torah, traditional practice, Jewish life and the mission of modern Jewry. Full of archival discoveries and first translations from Yiddish and Hebrew, it explores anarcho-Judaism in its variety through the works of Yaakov Meir Zalkind, Yitshak Nahman Steinberg, Yehudah Leyb Don-Yahiya, Avraham Yehudah Heyn, Natan Hofshi, Shmuel Alexandrov, Yehudah Ashlag and Aaron Shmuel Tamaret. With this ground-breaking account, Hayyim Rothman traces a complicated story about the modern entanglement of religion and anarchism, pacifism and Zionism, prophetic anti-authoritarianism and mystical antinomianism.

July 1990Tradition, Wandel und Modernität
by Shmuel N. Eisenstadt, Suzanne Heintz
In seiner Darstellung des Prozesses der Modernisierung geht der Autor von Max Webers These über die Bedeutung der protestantischen Ethik und der Kontroverse über die Frage aus, ob zwischen dem Protestantismus und dem Prozeß der Industrialisierung eine direkte Beziehung bestehe oder nicht. In eins mit der Analyse des Modernisierungsprozesses stellt Eisenstadt die Veränderungen in der soziologischen Theorie über diesen Prozeß dar und zeigt sehr detailliert, inwiefern die glatten konzeptuellen Schemata der Nachkriegsjahre sich als untauglich erwiesen haben, die Vielfalt der gesellschaftlichen und politischen Entwicklungen angemessen zu begreifen oder zu erklären.

Health & Personal DevelopmentJune 2018Winning the War on Cancer
The Epic Journey Towards a Natural Cure
by Sylvie Beljanski
President Nixon declared the War on Cancer in 1971. 45 years and billions of dollars later, it looks like we have lost the battle. Or have we? When a natural, non-toxic way to fight cancer is discovered, it is big news in the scientific community. But instead of being embraced, it is fiercely opposed by those tied to the pharmaceutical industry. Research by the late Mirko Beljanski, PhD,—one of the first green molecular biologists—revealed that natural molecules can selectively target cancer cells and work alongside many chemotherapy drugs. Called upon by President Mitterrand of France to treat his prostate cancer, Beljanski allowed Mitterand to reach his second term in office; but upon the president’s death, the scientist became the subject of relentless persecution. This book, written through the eyes of Dr. Beljanski’s daughter, Sylvie, tells the true story of one woman’s quest to carry on her father’s legacy and to discover a new treatment for cancer. The book combines scientific information with a tale of defiance, hope, despair, personal growth and love.
