Pragmatische Semiotik und Handlungstheorie
by Charles W. Morris, Achim Eschbach, Stefan Eschbach, Achim Eschbach, Achim Eschbach
Dieser Band stellt einen in der deutschen Diskussion bisher weitgehend vernachlässigten Aspekt des Werkes von Charles W. Morris dar, nämlich seine Beziehung zur pragmatischen Bewegung in der amerikanischen Philosophie. In seiner Einleitung diskutiert Achim Eschbach nach einer wissenschaftshistorischen und systematischen Charakterisierung der ausgewählten Texte, inwiefern Morris' Begründung der Zeichentheorie den Forderungen moderner Pragmasemiotik genügt.

Samurai oder Von der Würde des Scheiterns
Tragische Helden in der Geschichte Japans
by Ivan Morris, Gunther Ludwig, Ursula Gräfe
Alle Helden, deren ruhmreichen Aufstieg und ergreifenden Fall Morris schildert, haben eine Eigenschaft gemeinsam: Ihr ganzes Tun ist beherrscht von »makoto«, der kompromißlosen Aufrichtigkeit, die sich weder dem Pragmatismus noch dem gesunden Menschenverstand beugt.

The Scottish witch-hunt in context
by Julian Goodare
A collection of essays on Scottish witchcraft and witch-hunting, which covers the whole period of the Scottish witch-hunt, from the mid-sixteenth century to the early eighteenth. Includes studies of particular witchcraft panics such as a reassessment of the role of King James VI. Covers a wide range of topics concerned with Scottish witch-hunting and places it in the context of other topics such as gender relations, folklore, magic and healing, and moral regulation by the church and state. Provides a comparative dimension of witch-hunting beyond Scotland - one on the global context, and one comparing Scotland with England. It is a showcase for the latest thinking on the subject and will be of interest to all scholars studying witchcraft in early modern Europe, as well as the general reader wanting to move beyond shallow and sensational accounts of a subject of compelling in. ;

The renewal of post-war Manchester
Planning, architecture and the state
by Richard Brook
A compelling account of the project to transform post-war Manchester, revealing the clash between utopian vision and compromised reality. Urban renewal in Britain was thrilling in its vision, yet partial and incomplete in its implementation. For the first time, this deep study of a renewal city reveals the complex networks of actors behind physical change and stagnation in post-war Britain. Using the nested scales of region, city and case-study sites, the book explores the relationships between Whitehall legislation, its interpretation by local government planning officers and the on-the-ground impact through urban architectural projects. Each chapter highlights the connections between policy goals, global narratives and the design and construction of cities. The Cold War, decolonialisation, rising consumerism and the oil crisis all feature in a richly illustrated account of architecture and planning in post-war Manchester.

Vitamin D
The healing power of the sunshine vitamin
by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Michael F. Holick
Vitamin D deficiency is a global health problem that puts the quality of life and life expectancy of more than a billion children and adults at risk worldwide. Many lifestyle diseases may be associated with vitamin D deficiency: myocardial infarction, infections, cancer, neurological diseases, stroke, type 2 diabetes, to name just a few. This 4th updated edition incorporates numerous new insights into the therapeutic effect of vitamin D, including its importance for a healthy pregnancy, prenatal imprinting, optimum sporting performance, diabetes mellitus and autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis or multiple sclerosis. Since the metabolism and the effect of vitamin D are supported by a complex network of micronutrients – for example, magnesium, vitamin A or vitamin K – a specific chapter is devoted to this network. Here, the reader can discover how vitamin D successfully protects against diseases, improves the quality of life and optimises medication and treatment!
