September 2020It was always love
by Hotel, Nikola
She’s had enough of men, but he can’t get enough of her... Away. Just get out of here. That's all Aubree thinks about when she gets kicked out of college after a party. She buys an incredibly old car, throws the few things she owns into the trunk and flees to her best friend Ivy in New Hampshire. There, all she wants is to pull the blanket over her head and think of nothing else. Not about that night. Not about the party. And most of all, not that picture that's been circulating on the Internet ever since. But it doesn't work. Because instead of her friend, she meets Noah, Ivy's stepbrother. With his impulsive but surprisingly sensitive nature, Noah evokes feelings in her that she doesn't need right now. And which, nevertheless, sweep her away like a storm... Second volume of a romantic and exciting dilogy with 20 lavishly illustrated hand-lettered pages by Carolin Magunia. Including a playlist that can be found on Spotify and contains songs which match perfectly with the story! It was always you (Vol. 1) entered the Spiegel bestseller list immediately after its publication. Both titles can be read separately.

Geography & the EnvironmentSeptember 2020We Can Do Better
by Arvay, Clemens G.
How Environmental Destruction Caused the Corona Pandemic and Why Ecological Medicine Can Save Us The corona crisis can repeat itself at any time. A book about the disease-causing mechanisms of environmental pollution, and an innovative guide out of the health crisis Clemens Arvay is an expert in the field of medical ecology. In WE CAN DO BETTER, he takes the current corona crisis as an opportunity to look far beyond and work out exactly why negative environmental factors are responsible for an increasing deterioration of public health. Yet the author also points the way out of the calamity, explaining how we ourselves and future generations can improve our health through a different approach to nature.It was only because of environmental factors that COVID-19 was able to become a pandemic. Thus, for Clemens Arvay the corona crisis represents a symptom of a much larger problem, namely, a natural habitat that is making humans sick. It is already known today that fine particulate matter intensifies not only corona but also influenza infections, thereby killing hundreds of thousands of people worldwide every year. Light pollution leads to a rapid increase in cancer, and even the abrasion of automobile tires inhibits our immune system. Clemens Arvay makes himself clear: this is our last chance to take control of the situation. After the corona crisis, we must never allow things to return to the way they were before. Arvay therefore calls for nothing less than an eco-medical revolution in healthcare; a different, less global and industrialized lifestyle. And he shows each and every one of us how we can utilize factors in our environment to protect our health, strengthen our immune system, and stay well.

Humanities & Social SciencesPRAISE FOR LONG-TERM LOVE – WHY IT SUCCEEDS AND IS IRREPLACEABLE
by Werner Bartens
Couples in the early stages of a relationship have countless guides to choose from. But what about those who have been together for a while or for a really long time? A long relationship always gives rise to questions – regardless of whether the partners are in their thirties, forties or fifties. Around two thirds of all couples are uncertain about their relationship, and question – either openly or secretly – whether they want to carry on like this. Dr Werner Bartens says that those who give up on a long-standing relationship are giving up on a treasure trove of shared experiences and trust that the couple has built up over the years. Research has shown that those who are in a relationship are healthier and happier and, in contrast to what singles might think, have a lot more sex. But a long relationship is also demanding - Werner Bartens explains what matters in a proper relationship, regardless of age. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have butterflies in your tummy – in fact, it’s better, says Bartens, because you will feel as happy in your long relationship as you felt at the beginning of it. Relationship guides almost always address couples who have recently got together. But what about the many couples who look at their relationships after years and find themselves dissatisfied? Finally, a relationship book for couples who have been together for a while. You ask yourself: is this just the way it is, or can I change things? Can I revitalise our partnership? Doctor and publicist Werner Bartens has written a book that really helps people in this situation.
