        Der Fisch, der zu den Sternen schwimmen wollte

        Roman

        by Ahn Do-Hyun, Hyuk Sook Kim, Manfred Selzer

        Sanft wiegt der Grüne Fluss die Lachse auf ihrem Weg zum Oberlauf, dem Ort, wo sie geboren wurden. Sie sind weit geschwommen, haben den Fluten des Ozeans getrotzt und sind mutig den Wasserfall hinaufgesprungen – sie sind ihrer Bestimmung gefolgt und haben getan, was Lachse eben so tun. Doch einer unter ihnen, Silberlachs, will sich nicht damit zufriedengeben – der Sinn seines Daseins muss doch aus mehr bestehen, als blind dem Schwarm zu folgen? Immer wieder streckt er den Kopf aus dem Wasser und blickt sehnsüchtig in die Welt da draußen, gar bis zu den Sternen hinauf. Er will frei sein. Doch seine geliebte Freundin Klarauge warnt ihn davor, Regenbogen nachzujagen. Warum bin ich auf der Welt? Was braucht es zum Glück? Die Geschichte des Fisches, der zu träumen wagte, hat Millionen von Lesern verzaubert. Ahn Do-Hyun stellt mit leichter Hand die großen Fragen des Lebens. Denn im weiten Universum ist jeder nur ein kleiner Fisch – und doch ist jedes Leben einzigartig und wunderbar.

        The Practice of Pharmacy

        Textbook for pharmacy interns Handbook for the pharmacy

        by Dr. Michael Sax, founded by Dr. Herbert Gebler and Dr. Gerd Kindl

        After pharmacy studies have ended, the fascinating world of the pharmacy awaits – simultaneously varied and challenging. This is no problem with this well-established standard work to hand! The 7th edition, with a new editor and new structure, goes through the various stages of pharmacy operation. Beginning with the social mandate to supply medicines and then considering the organisational and economic orientation of a pharmacy, one delves ever deeper into its inner workings. In every area, the appropriate specific information can be found about pharmaceutical law and practice – whether this concerns the back office, over-the-counter medicines, dispensary and dispensing, or the supply of care homes, or preparation of cytotoxic drugs. In addition to the important topic “Dispensing of drugs and medical devices on prescription”, particular attention is paid to the principal activity in the pharmacy – giving advice on self-medication. The contents are based on the regulations for registration of pharmacists and the guidelines of the Federal Chamber of Pharmacists for the practical training of pharmacy interns in the pharmacy. The Practice of Pharmacy safely navigates the user through the practical training year and is the ideal preparation for the 3rd State Examination! Returnees, pharmacies that provide training and pharmacists of many years’ experience, will also benefit from this textbook and reference work.

        Advising patients, dispensing, preparing and checking drugs – that is the essence of pharmacy practice and – at the same time – a broad field.

It is the ideal complement to the textbook Pharmacy Practice of the Deutschen Apotheker Verlag and the perfect preparation for the final examination. But quite apart from that, it guarantees fun for all prospective and active pharmaceutical technicians, returnees and pharmacy interns when learning and revising. It provides valuable ideas and support for pharmaceutical technician schools and pharmacies with teaching and training.

        Drug Products in Nursing and Care Practice

        Safe handling of medication

        by Dr. Ulrich Räth and Friedhelm Kamann

        The assessment of nursing and care needs and the organisation and quality assurance of nursing care are key tasks performed by nursing staff. This also includes administering medication, something which requires sound organisation, control, implementation and documentation. Nurses observe whether medication is taken consistently, has the desired effect, and whether undesirable side effects occur. The drug product as a „special commodity“ – whether in inpatient long-term care, in outpatient care, or in hospital – requires special knowledge concerning - correct storage, - the pharmacological effect, and - appropriate application. This book is geared towards the diseases and symptoms of people requiring nursing or care. All the important facts concerning the use of medicines are presented here in an understandable manner, focusing on the essentials. Numerous illustrations and practical tips provide the link to everyday nursing care. It is the ideal textbook and reference work for nursing and care assistants as well as nursing professionals.

        How Animals Hammer, Drill and Strike

        Tool Use in the Animal Kingdom

        by Peter-René Becker

        From insects to fish as well as birds and primates: the use of tools is amazingly widespread in the animal kingdom. It’s a misnomer to presume that humans are distinguished by tool use and conscious capacity. So where is culture initiated? The biologist Peter-René Becker has evaluated numerous studies and cites plenty of evidence for the use of the hammer and anvil, lances, bait or sponges. Animals also use “tools as social implements”. Ultimately, the depth of man’s conscience singles him out from other animals.

        The Elements of Drawing

        by John Ruskin

        Can drawing — sound, honest representation of the world as the eye sees it, not tricks with the pencil or a few "effects" — be learned from a book? One of the most gifted draftsmen, who is also one of the greatest art critics and theorists of all time, answers that question with a decided "Yes." He is John Ruskin, the author of this book, a classic in art education as well as a highly effective text for the student and amateur today. The work is in three parts, cast in the form of letters to a student, successively covering "First Practice," "Sketching from Nature," and "Colour and Composition." Starting with the bare fundamentals (what kind of drawing pen to buy; shading a square evenly), and using the extremely practical method of exercises which the student performs from the very first, Ruskin instructs, advises, guides, counsels, and anticipates problems with sensitivity. The exercises become more difficult, developing greater and greater skills until Ruskin feels his reader is ready for watercolors and finally composition, which he treats in detail as to the laws of principality, repetition, continuity, curvature, radiation, contrast, interchange, consistency, and harmony. All along the way, Ruskin explains, in plain, clear language, the artistic and craftsmanlike reasons behind his practical advice — underlying which, of course, is Ruskin's brilliant philosophy of honest, naturally observed art which has so much affected our aesthetic. Three full-page plates and 48 woodcuts and diagrams (the latter from drawings by the author) show the student what the text describes. An appendix devotes many pages to the art works which may be studied with profit.
