        Gluttony

        Blow-out

        by Jürgen Dollase

        One of Germany's best-known restaurant critics, Jürgen Dollase knowledgeably traces the ups and downs of our love of food. Following the historical-theological classification of the 'mortal sin' that is gluttony, he illuminates not only the physical and medical but also the so important psychological aspects of food. We learn just why his weight loss self-experiment was not successful in the long term as well as various enlightening facts regarding the fateful role of the discounters. This book is not an appeal for moderation, but a plea for moderate indulgence.

        Twelve Conversations

        by Angelika Schett

        Why is the so-called “coolness” of sadness currently fading? Why is sadness increasingly being medicalized? Why is sadness the most humane of all feelings? And: can animals be sad? Twelve conversations with philosophers, psychiatrists, experts in cultural studies, and psychoanalysts focus on sadness from different perspectives – and they have something positive to say about this emotion.   Target Group: For non-specialists and experts – everyone who is interested in the broad spectrum of human sadness

        A loss of innocence?

        Television and Irish society, 1960–72

        by Robert Savage

        This book explores the evolution of Ireland's national television service during its first tumultuous decade, addressing how the medium helped undermine the conservative political, cultural and social consensus that dominated Ireland into the 1960s. It also traces the development of the BBC and ITA in Northern Ireland, considering how television helped undermine a state that had long governed without consensus. Using a wide array of new archival sources and extensive interviews Savage illustrates how an increasingly confident television service upset political, religious and cultural elites who were profoundly uncomfortable with the changes taking place around them. Savage argues that during this period television was not a passive actor, but an active agent often times aggressively testing the limits of the medium and the patience of governments. Television helped facilitate a process of modernisation that slowly transformed Irish society during the 1960s. This book will be essential for those interested in contemporary Irish political and cultural history and readers interested in media history, and cultural studies. ;

        Saying goodbye to a loved one is always hard. Jon, the little hero of this story, serves as an example of how children can deal with the pain of loss. When Jon’s grandfather dies, he becomes a star. Jon decides to look for his grandfather’s star to say goodbye, and begins a journey through space and through his own grief.

Only there do the stars twinkle and shine for grandchildren, children,  and everyone else who misses the deceased. Jon finally understands that his grandfather is dead, but is not simply gone, because in his memory, in his thoughts, and in the starry sky his grandfather is still there and makes his star shine for everyone who thinks of him.   For: • children (ages 6–12) who suffer from the fear of losing a close family member or who  have lost a family member• parents, relatives• therapists

        The Red and the Black

        The Russian Revolution and the Black Atlantic

        by David Featherstone, Christian Høgsbjerg

        The Russian Revolution of 1917 was not just a world-historical event in its own right, but also struck powerful blows against racism and imperialism, and so inspired many black radicals internationally. This edited collection explores the implications of the creation of the Soviet Union and the Communist International for black and colonial liberation struggles across the African diaspora. It examines the critical intellectual influence of Marxism and Bolshevism on the current of revolutionary 'black internationalism' and analyses how 'Red October' was viewed within the contested articulations of different struggles against racism and colonialism. Challenging European-centred understandings of the Russian Revolution and the global left, The Red and the Black offers new insights on the relations between Communism, various lefts and anti-colonialisms across the Black Atlantic - including Garveyism and various other strands of Pan-Africanism. The volume makes a major and original intellectual contribution by making the relations between the Russian Revolution and the Black Atlantic central to debates on questions relating to racism, resistance and social change.

        by Franziska Meister, Felix Hamacher, Stephan Weingarten

        The story is about Paul, who feels very lonely and has no real friends.

The aim of this book is to make it easier for affected children to understand their current situation. They are taught that they are not alone and how to overcome their fears. The book provides parents, siblings and therapists of children who have social anxiety with  important information about the emotional disorder along with practical tasks and  exercises.   For: • children (ages 6–12) who suffer from the fear of isolation• parents, relatives• therapists

        Revolutionary lives of the Red and Black Atlantic since 1917

        by David Featherstone, Christian Høgsbjerg, Alan Rice

        Revolutionary lives of the Red and Black Atlantic brings to light the life histories of a wide range of radical figures whose political activity in relation to the black liberation struggle was profoundly shaped by the global impact and legacy of the Russian Revolution of October 1917. The volume introduces new perspectives on the intellectual trajectories of well-known figures and critical activists including C. L. R. James, Paul Robeson, Walter Rodney and Grace P. Campbell. This biographical approach brings a vivid and distinctive lens to bear on how racialised social and political worlds were negotiated and experienced by these revolutionary figures, and on historic black radical engagements with left political movements, in the wake of the Russian Revolution.

        Fish in Distress

        On the careful management of an endangered resource

        by Manfred Kriener, Stefan Linzmaier

        Consumers stand perplexed at the fish counter. Cod or salmon; mackerel or sea bass? Or perhaps rather carp and trout? How about flounder and dab? Dab what? A terrific flatfish, but sadly hardly anyone has heard of it. And what was it again about organic, aquaculture, wild-caught, and that little blue sustainability certificate? Is catching your own a way out? Before you start thinking it’s time to opt for a chop and fried potatoes instead, read this book. It provides readers with deep blue facts from the world’s waters and analyses the global and local habitat of the finned creature.

        Die vorletzte Station / Die Chronik Dingy

        Ein Bericht

        by Ludwig Hohl, Magnus Wieland

        Der nachgelassene Bericht Die vorletzte Station, eine Chronik von Ludwig Hohls Aufenthalt im Bergdörfchen Dingy, schildert die reale Begegnung mit Georges Mergault, einer heruntergekommenen ehemaligen Montparnasse-Bekanntschaft. In der haltlosen und kranken Künstler-Existenz Mergaults sieht sich der Erzähler mit einem monströsen Gegenbild seiner Vorstellung vom richtigen Leben konfrontiert und zugleich mit eigenen Abgründen. In einzelnen Episoden, schwankend zwischen Abscheu und unterschwelliger Faszination, entsteht das Porträt einer Figur radikaler Unangepasstheit vor der Kulisse eines skurrilen Dorfalltags.Eine Sozialstudie von zuweilen grotesker Komik.
