        Ein angesehener Privatbankier wird erpresst. In einem Luxushotel wird ein Escort-Girl brutal ermordet und die Vereinten Nationen sind Ziel eines Anschlagplans islamistischer Terrorristen.    In dem ersten Teil der Thriller-Trilogie »Geneva Girl – Todesursache unbekannt« geht es um Schwarzgeld, Mord und Terrorgefahr in einer der teuersten Städte der Welt: Genf. Im Mittelpunkt des Buches steht eine deutsche Praktikantin bei den Vereinten Nationen, die an Angststörungen und Klaustrophobie leidet, und zwischen die Fronten von Geheimdienst und Diplomatie gerät. Es handelt sich um eine brisante Mischung aus Psycho- und Politthriller. Die Idee zu dem Roman lieferte der nie aufgeklärte Tod des ehemaligen Ministerpräsidenten von Schleswig-Holstein Uwe Barschel im Genfer Hotel Beau-Rivage.

        Morocco's Quest for Stronger and Inclusive Growth

        by Roberto Cardarelli, Taline Koranchelian

        Over the last three decades, Morocco has had a remarkable journey to economic stability and development. Still, Morocco’s quest for strong, resilient, and inclusive growth is far from complete. After accelerating in the first decade of the new millennium, income con­vergence with advanced economies has slowed over the last 15 years. And the benefits of economic development remain elusive for a significant part of Morocco’s population, particularly young people and women, given their high unemployment rate and the presence of a still-large informal sector. This book provides a broad overview of both Morocco’s economic progress in the past few decades and its economic modernization agenda going forward. To a certain extent, Morocco’s story is a useful example for many devel­oping economies still in search of building the foundations of macroeconomic stability. The series of reforms that the country has begun to implement provides equally interesting ideas for all countries engaged in the quest for stron­ger and more inclusive growth.

        Practical Isotope Hydrology

        by S.M.Rao

        The book highlights, with practical examples, the potential of isotope techniques in water resources development and management. It starts with a description of isotope characteristics as well as their relevance as tracers in studies on various stages of the hydrological cycle. The book covers applications of both environmental isotopes and injected tracers to surface water and groundwater bodies as well as their interrelationships. In view of the importance of identification of groundwater recharge and recharge processes, due emphasis is given to this aspect of application of environmental isotopes. Role of isotopes in understanding groundwater contamination from natural pollutants like inland salinity, arsenic and nitrate is discussed with examples.
