      • Helvetia Editrice

        Edizioni Helvetia was born in 1972 from an idea of the poet and musician Gianni Spagnol who, after a six-year experience in Zurich as a printer at an important publishing complex, wanted to found in Venice - between Campo San Rocco and Campo San Tomà, not far from the Frari Church - a printing house/publishing house that would promote and stimulate the historical-literary production of the Venetian and Venetian area in detail. Then, with the 90s, the company was moved to the mainland. In 2006, with the acquisition by its granddaughter Daniela Spagnol, the name changed to Helvetia Editrice and the publications continued to explore themes linked to the territory, especially in the "Rosso Veneziano" series - which gathers historical curiosities, with a "popular" and mainly narrative slant - and the "VeneziaeVenetoVivo" series - more linked to pure historical non-fiction and documentation. Enriched with non-fiction and fiction, since 2019 Helvetia has been back in the game with two series that challenge the usual comfort zone by leaving the local territory: "Taccuini d'Autore" (Author's Notebooks), which collects books on the road, texts that travel and travel along the frontier of writing; and "Nuovi Territori" (New Territories), a line created to enhance new authors and unusual topics from experimental themes.

        Die Romane

        by Thomas Bernhard, Martin Huber, Wendelin Schmidt-Dengler

        Ein Schriftsteller wollte er nicht sein, vielmehr "jemand, der schreibt". Zugleich begriff er sich als "Geschichtenzerstörer" und "Übertreibungskünstler", wurde von andern als "Misanthrop" oder "Alpenbeckett" charakterisiert. Eins steht bei solch unterschiedlichen Ansichten fest: Bernhards Werke, die Prosa wie die Dramen, zählen unbestritten zur Weltliteratur und sind in annähernd 50 Sprachen auf dem Erdball zu lesen. Die vorliegende Quarto-Ausgabe präsentiert seine neun Romane im gesicherten Textbestand – vom Debütroman Frost aus dem Jahr 1963 über Das Kalkwerk und Korrektur bis zum gewaltigen Schlußband Auslöschung von 1986. Martin Huber und Wendelin Schmidt-Dengler beschreiben Entstehung, Relevanz und Wirkung des Bernhardschen Romanwerks in einem ausführlichen Schlußessay. Dieser Band bietet im Vergleich zu den Einzelbänden eine Preisersparnis von 71%.

        Ethics in Nursing Training

        by Marianne Rabe

        Although the importance of ethics is often stressed, it remains sidelined in training. Marianne Rabe makes ethics and ethical reflection the focus of nursing practice and training. Her study   - presents the theoretical principles of formative learning and explores how it can be put into practice - puts forward practical curriculum suggestions for incorporating ethics into nurse training - shows how to address the ethical principles of dignity, autonomy, care, justice, responsibility, and dialogue within the framework of a teaching concept - presents Rabe’s own model of ethical reflection based on her personal experience.

        Phosphorus Loss from Soil to Water

        by Edited by H Tunney, P C Brookes, A E Johnston

        Phosphorus is an essential element for plant growth and its input has long been recognised as necessary to maintain profitable crop production. However, phosphorus inputs can also increase the biological activity of surface waters and this can lead to the destruction of such aquatic ecosystems. Advanced eutrophication of surface water leads to problems with its use for fisheries, recreation, industry and drinking, due to the increased growth of undesirable algae and aquatic weeds, and oxygen shortages caused by their death and decomposition. It is therefore important to have a good understanding of the causes and mode of phosphorus loss from soil to water, to enable the problems to be controlled and managed. This book has been developed from an international workshop held in Ireland in late 1995. It is the first comprehensive consideration of the topic, and many leading researchers in the area have contributed to it. It is essential reading for all soil scientists and freshwater biologists, as well as for environmentalists, ecologists and agriculturalists concerned with sustainable land management and pollution. The book is also recommended to fisheries managers, fertilizer manufacturers and biologists working for water utilities.

        Key Questions in Environmental Toxicology

        A Study and Revision Guide

        by J P F D'Mello

        Key Questions in Environmental Toxicology is designed as a self-study tool for undergraduate students. Questions review the origin, characterization and environmental distribution of major pollutants, followed by their absorption and metabolic disposition in living organisms. They address implications for the development of cancer, cardiovascular disease, pulmonary dysfunction and neurological conditions in relation to gaseous pollutants, particulates, persistent organic compounds and radioactive emissions, then cover the impact of pollutants on biodiversity, food safety, and water contamination. This book: - Covers toxicology from human morbidity, ecological impact and biodiversity perspectives, and emphasises the impact of diverse organic pollutants in worsening these interconnected phenomena, leading to wider environmental emergencies; - Provides a selection of fill-in-the-gap, multiple choice and short answer question types for students to vary their learning and enhance motivation; - Includes full answer rationales, allowing students to gain true insight into the subject. Providing support to programmes across environmental science, ecology and human health, and covering all the major biological toxins and pollutants as well as unintended consequences of actions designed to improve outcomes, this book may be used in conjunction with the companion volume Introduction to Environmental Toxicology.

        Kaspar Hauser’s Brothers and Sisters. In search of the wild man

        by P. J. Blumenthal

        What makes human beings human? Is it a life in society that makes us what we are? We often hear stories of persons who have survived in the wild without social contact or who were supposedly raised by wild animals. Kaspar Hauser is probably the most well-known example, but certainly not the only one. P. J. Blumenthal has taken up the hunt for the “wild man” Homo ferus on the boundary between man and animal.

        Practical Applications, Education and Electronic Nursing Documentation

        by Maria Müller Staub, Kurt Schalek, Peter König (editors)

        How can nursing concepts and terminology be systematically described, defined, and classified? This essential reference book on nursing classifications and conceptual systems provides an introduction to the conceptual systems in nursing, traces their historical development, and explains their key terms and the principles on which they are based. It clearly explains the definitions and types of classification systems, describes their functions, and outlines their reference classifications. It presents a range of conceptual systems, including nursing diagnoses (NANDA), nursing interventions (NIC), and nursing outcomes (NOC), as well as the international classification for nursing practice (ICNP). These classifications are supplemented by other classification systems related to nursing. The authors describe in detail how these and other classifications were drawn up, what their objectives are, and how they are structured and composed.   Target Group: Nursing students, practicing nurses, nursing managers, nursing trainers, software developers
