2022Micronutrient Depleters: Acid Blockers
Things to know about medicines and micronutrients
by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Klaus Kisters
This guide provides patients with important medical information about interactions of their drug products with vitamins and minerals. These interactions are not always listed in the accompanying package inserts. Those who take acid blockers such as omeprazole or pantoprazole may not only develop disorders relating to calcium, magnesium, vitamin D and bone metabolism in the long term, but above all become deficient in vitamin B12. This way, patients can improve their treatment, reduce the side effects of their medication and increase their quality of life!

April 1964Zen
Aussprüche und Verse der Zen-Meister
by Peter Weber-Schäfer, Peter Weber-Schäfer
Was ist Zen? Die Lehre des Zen selbst widersetzt sich jeder Aussage über ihren tiefsten Inhalt. Es geht allein um das persönliche Erleben einer Antwort auf die Grundfragen menschlicher Existenz. Mystische Versenkung und intuitive Erleuchtung des Geistes sind mit dem Begriff des Zen verbunden, der, wörtlich genommen, Kontemplation, Selbstversenkung bedeutet.

May 2008Vom Geist des Zen
by Alan Watts, Julius Schwabe
Zen ist keine theoretische Belehrung, es ist kein Studium von Schriften. Zen gründet sich vielmehr auf Praxis und auf persönliches Erleben der Wirklichkeit. Es bedeutet den unmittelbaren Kontakt mit dem Leben mit dem Ziel, eine nahtlose Verbindung zwischen Ich und Leben zu schaffen. Der große amerikanische Religionsphilosoph Alan Watts (1915-1973) hat diese Einführung in den Geist des Zen und den Zen-Buddhismus eigens für westliche Leser verfaßt und zeigt ihnen Wege auf, wie sie sich dem Denken des Zen nähern können. Das Buch wurde zum Klassiker.

May 2023How Philosophers Fail Themselves
The somewhat different historyof philosophy
by Otto A. Böhmer
— Philosophy for beginners — For philosophy enthusiasts — A pleasant read This truly brilliant book tells of the sometimes sublime, sometimes exhilarating efforts of philosophers to maintain their attitude in everyday life without forgetting the meaning of their own words – and how they ultimately failed to do so. The minor, sometimes bizarre events in the lives of the great philosophers fit so aptly in the picture of the respective philosophy that one has to assume they could have been conceived to keep the associated intellectual giant in a strange and memorable mood. A book of cheerful science, full of wit, narrative and linguistic eloquence.

Humanities & Social SciencesJuly 2026Modernity and philosophy in Max Horkheimer
On the contemporary relevance of critical theory
by Raffaele Carbone
This book shows that Max Horkheimer's program of critical theory and his research throughout his career as a university professor and thinker are rooted in the cogency of philosophical questions and an in-depth knowledge of the historical development of philosophical problems in their close correlation with the socio-economic framework which shaped the 'bourgeois society' and the Modern Era. Indeed, his analyses of modern philosophers allows us to understand how the bourgeoisie seeks legitimisation and consolidation of its position, partly through the voices of its thinkers. In this way, in his investigation of early modern philosophy problems, and through constant dialogue with his colleagues Adorno, Marcuse, Pollock and Fromm, Horkheimer expresses a profound awareness of the critical force inherent in thought which, admittedly, is ever vulnerable to crisis and weakening, but which can always be reactivated.
