MedicineHumanity in the Crisis Zone
Field Report of a Nurse on H umanitarian Aid with Doctors Without Borders (MSF) in South Sudan
by Andreas F. Lutz
A hospital somewhere in remote South Sudan. A place where peoples’ lives are marked by extreme poverty, war, violence, the climate crisis and the daily struggle for survival. How does it feel to be human under these conditions? What moves someone to voluntarily go where nobody would want to? Andreas Lutz takes you on a journey to a project run by the humanitarian aid organization Médecins Sans Frontières in the northeast of South Sudan. Impressed by encounters with people who live under the precarious conditions of this crisis zone, he writes about his experiences as a caregiver and, among other things, about how healthcare provision works with very limited resources.

Stone Blossoms
by Luo Changjiang
The full-length reportage "Stone Blossom" closely focuses on the main line of poverty alleviation by tourism, focusing on the spirit of struggle of the people in Wulingyuan to fight poverty and the vivid stories, reflecting the scenes of rearranging mountains and rivers to change their destiny. “Tourism feeds back agriculture and poverty alleviation connects tourism” to continuously influence, impact and refresh the vivid process of people's ideas, behaviors and thinking models. At the same time, the work takes poverty and anti-poverty worldwide as the coordinates, and carries out reflections and discussions on topics such as rural tourism, multidimensional poverty, educating the masses and cadres, human capital, rural revitalization and rural construction, and urban-rural integration. Documentary and speculation go hand in hand, poetry and reason echo each other, forming the basic pattern of the polyphonic concerto of this work. You can hear the concertos of history and reality, the concerts of the countryside and the city, the concerts of glory and dreams, the concert of the terroir culture with the sandstone Dafenglin as the main symbol and the regional cultural character of Wulingyuan people.

Geography & the EnvironmentOctober 2019The Himalayan Soap Pod Tree (Gymnocladus assamicus)
An Ecologically and Economically Important Tree on the Brink of Extinction
by Baharul I Choudhury, Mohammed Latif Khan
Extinction of species has alarmingly increased in recent decades due to anthropogenic activities, natural calamities and climate change. The life history, ecology and evolution of such species have often not been well studied. Gymnocladus assamicus is an archaic tree endemic to the Eastern Himalayan region of Northeast India. Locally known as 'Menangmanba-shi' by the Monpa tribe of Arunachal Pradesh (India), mature G. assamicus pods contain high saponin and are used traditionally for cleansing purposes and rituals. We rediscovered the species after more than 70 years from high altitude areas in the Himalayas through extensive field explorations and employing an ecological niche modeling approach. Our study revealed a very few actively reproducing mature G. assamicus trees surviving in unique microclimatic conditions. The species is classified as 'critically endangered' (IUCN red list). The book contains detailed information about G. assamicus and discusses its current distribution, population status, ethnobotanical uses and other ecological parameters. Major intrinsic and extrinsic factors that might be responsible for population decline are described. More importantly, we reported a very rare mating system known as 'androdioecy' in which male and hermaphrodite individuals co-exist in the natural population. Overall, the book highlights the story of a critically endangered tree species with a unique biological and socio-cultural importance and will serve as a case study and referencefor other similar species both locally and globally.
