March 2001Bericht einer Reise in die Sächsische Schweiz
by Hans Christian Andersen, Ulrich Sonnenberg, Ludwig Richter, C. A. Richter
Hans Christian Andersen (1805 - 1875) war ein reisefreudiger Mann. Im Frühjahr 1831 fuhr er durch Deutschland und hielt seine Eindrücke in einem Reisebuch fest. Es sind die Schönheiten der Gegend um Dresden, die ihn besonders entzückten, es war die freundliche Aufnahme »vortrefflicher Menschen«, die ihm guttat, und es war die geheimnisvolle Melancholie, die über der Sächsischen Schweiz liegt, die seiner Herzensstimmung entgegenkam. Der Reisebericht, der in der ersten deutschen Gesamtausgabe von 1847 erschien, war um zahlreiche politische, religiöse und persönliche Passagen gekürzt worden, Kürzungen, die spätere Ausgaben beibehielten. Hier liegt Andersens Reisebericht erstmals mit dem ungekürzten Text vor: in der vollständigen Fassung in Deutschland ein bislang fast unbekanntes Werk.

November 2021The Forest of the Future – A New Reality
Understanding the ecosystem
by Hans Jürgen Böhmer
What happened with forest dieback? The predictions of the 1980s that forests would be in decline across Europe have not come true. Currently, attention again focuses on the doom scenarios of the loss of entire forests and cultural landscapes in an emotional and sometimes hysterical debate. Biogeographer Hans Jürgen Böhmer refers to updated case studies and his 30 years of research experience on global ecosystems to demonstrate extremely complex interrelations of the natural world that various actors monitor in contrasting ways and characterized by different times and ideologies. Böhmer advocates to embed the sustainability debate more strongly in the living environment, rather than relying exclusively on model calculations.

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.

Ein Reisebegleiter
by Andreas Drouve
Das berühmte Museumsdreieck am Paseo del Prado, der Königspalast und die Kathedrale la Almudena – und vieles mehr gibt es in Madrid zu sehen. Schon Hans-Christian Andersen erlebte bei seinem Besuch einen "unendlich großen Kunstgenuß". Spaniens Hauptstadt gilt als europäische Kulturmetropole ersten Ranges: Cervantes, der Schöpfer des Don Quixote, wurde hier geboren; der Dramatiker Lope de Vega war im Goldenen Zeitalter produktiv, Goya malte die Kapelle San Antonio de la Florida aus, und Hemingway war während des Spanischen Bürgerkriegs hier. Andreas Drouve führt den Leser auf den Spuren der großen Literaten und Künstler durch die Stadt und lädt zu Entdeckungen auch außerhalb der touristischen Pfade ein. Stadtplanauszüge und ein umfangreicher Serviceteil machen diesen Band zu einem unentbehrlichen Begleiter im Reisegepäck.

Science & MathematicsOctober 2017UV-B Radiation and Plant Life
Molecular Biology to Ecology
by Brian R Jordan, Pedro J. Aphalo, Amy T. Austin, Carlos L. Ballaré, Paul W. Barnes, Susanne Baldermann, Melanie Binkert, Janet F. Bornman, Isabelle N. Bottger, Stephan D. Flint, Franziska S. Hanschen, Éva Hideg, Marcel A K Jansen, Gareth I. Jenkins, Karel Klem, Susanne Neugart, Monika Schreiner, Åke Strid, Mark A. Tobler, Roman Ulm, Otmar Urban, Jason Wargent, Melanie Wiesner
Ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B) has profound effects on plant growth and development, and exposure varies with ozone depletion and across geographic regions, with ecosystem and agricultural consequences. This book deals with large-scale impacts but also how UV-B affects plants at the molecular level is also fascinating, and the UV-B photoreceptor has only recently been characterised. While UV-B radiation can be damaging, it also has a more positive role in plant photomorphogenesis. Consequently UV-B treatments are being developed as innovative approaches to improve horticulture. This book is a timely synthesis of what we know and need to know about UV-B radiation and plants.
