Several different pills prescribed by many different physicians: pharmacists encounter patients in this situation every day! What at first seems quite normal can, on closer inspection, be fraught with considerable risks of drug-related problems. Using this analysis as a core component of medication management, pharmacies have the key risk minimisation tool at their disposal. The authors guide their readers step by step through the discussions with the patient, the stages of the analysis, and the clear documentation. Case examples reflect on the content and illustrate implementation. The launch of pharmaceutical services enables an improvement in the safety and efficacy of customers‘ drug therapy in the pharmacy by means of the service „Extended medication counselling for polymedication“. Everything pharmacists need to know for the necessary medication analysis can be found in this book. This completely revised 2nd edition includes: - Important information on pharmaceutical services - Illustrative case examples on many indications - QR codes that lead to additional digital material Whether it is a detailed adjustment or a major change to medication: every patient benefits from the intervention.
Ursula Kuczynski wuchs in einer großbürgerlichen jüdischen Familie in Berlin-Schlachtensee auf. In New York bewegte sie sich in den besten Kreisen. Sie hatte Affären, war mehrmals verheiratet und hatte Kinder. Doch ihre große, wahre Liebe galt dem Kommunismus. Ihm diente sie als Saboteurin, Bombenbauerin und Geheimagentin. Ihr Codename: »Agent Sonja«. 1923, Ursula ist gerade einmal sechzehn Jahre alt, wird sie bei einer 1.-Mai-Demonstration von einem Polizisten niedergeknüppelt. Es ist nur ein Grund mehr für sie, der Kommunistischen Partei beizutreten und deren Ideen in die Welt hinauszutragen. Mit Anfang zwanzig begleitet sie ihren ersten Ehemann nach Shanghai, wo sie Richard Sorge kennenlernt. Der Meisterspion wirbt sie für den russischen Geheimdienst an und sorgt dafür, dass sie in Moskau eine Ausbildung zur Agentin absolviert. Von dort aus geht es für sie in die Mandschurei und anschließend in die Schweiz, wo sie ein Bombenattentat auf Hitler plant. In den 50er Jahren wird sie in der DDR unter dem Namen Ruth Werner zur Erfolgsautorin.Den größten Dienst erweist sie der Sowjetunion aber, indem sie zwischen 1943 und 1949 Informationen über das britische Atomprogramm an Moskau weitergibt – eine der gefährlichsten Spionageaktionen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Spannend und temporeich wie einen Thriller erzählt der Spionageexperte und Bestseller-Autor Ben Macintyre das unglaubliche, aber wahre Leben einer Spionin, die den Lauf der Weltgeschichte maßgeblich verändert hat.

Despite the abundance and quality of recent historical writing on consumerism, it cannot be said that the modern Co-operative movement (Co-op) has been well served. It has also been by-passed in studies that locate Britons' identity in their consumption. The reasons for this can be found in the widely perceived decline of the Co-op since the 1950s, but also in various historiographical agendas that have resulted in its relative invisibility in modern British history. This book, by demonstrating the variety of broader issues that can be addressed through the Co-op and the vibrancy of new historical research into consumption, seeks to remedy this. Taking stock, both of the Co-op in a broader context and of new approaches to the history of consumption, combines the work of leading authorities on the Co-op with recent scholarly research. It explores the Co-op's distinctive interface between everyday issues and grander idealistic concerns. The chapters intersect to examine a broad range of themes, notably: the politics of consumerism including consumer protection, ethical and fair trading and alternatives to corporate commerce; design and advertising; the Co-op's relations with other components of the labour movement; and its ideology, image and memory. The collection looks at the Co-operative movement locally (through specific case studies), nationally and also in comparison to the European movement. This collection will appeal to academics, researchers, teachers and students of the economic, cultural and political history of twentieth-century Britain. It will also be of interest to academics and students of business studies, and co-operative members themselves. ;

Agents of European overseas empires involves contributors who specialise on often overlooked aspects of imperial endeavour: 'private' European interests, companies, merchants or courtiers, who conducted their own activities both with and without the benediction of polities. The chapters adopt intra- as well as inter-imperial perspectives and transport the reader to colonial America, the West Indies, the Cape of Good Hope, Batavia, or Ceylon, through the Dutch, English, French and Spanish empires. Agents of European overseas empires offers crucial insight on how these actors acquired profits and power and, in turn, laid the platforms for European global empires.

For a long time, Corinna von Bassewitz believed her father was a soldier, later on that he was a diplomat. Then, at the age of 16, she learnt something unbelievable: he had been a secret agent for the Bundesnachrichtendienst (BND, Germany's Federal Intelligence Service). Once the secret had been at least partly uncovered, she became something of a spy herself and eventually found some confidential documents in her parents' attic. Later, she realised that her father had been living as a double agent for the FRG and the GDR. So what effect does it have on a girl if her father conceals his true identity and eventually disappears without trace? Along with her family history, the author provides multi-layered and exciting insights into the historical context of the Cold War. A very personal book, intriguingly told and emotionally touching.
