Children's & YAA Case for Kwiatkowski (27). Milk Carton Alarm!
by Jürgen Banscherus/ Ralf Butschkow
What a disaster! Kwiatkowski’s favourite milk tastes of mango and caramel. Who could have interfered with the milk cartons from the supermarket? Clearly there is something fishy going on here. Especially as the manager of the supermarket can only come up with the flimsiest of excuses. A famous private detective will certainly not allow himself to be fobbed off like this! And so very soon Kwiatkowski finds himself entangled in a mysterious case which requires all his great skills…

May 2021Mocked, Battled, Desired
With organic pioneer Ulrich Walter through five decades
by Heike Leitschuh
The small district town of Diepholz lies between Bremen, Oldenburg and Osnabrück, and no one could possibly describe it as “well-known”. Quite unlike the Lebensbaum company, which was founded here by Ulrich Walter in 1979. Those who eat mindfully will probably also be familiar with the coffees, teas and spices of this pioneering organic company, which frequently and repeatedly receives a range of awards for sustainability and now employs around 200 people. Heike Leitschuh draws a lifelike portrait of an entrepreneur of the organic founding generation who turned a small shop into a successful medium-sized company, played a key role in shaping the organic industry, and has offered perspectives for its future.

2022A Workbook of Chemistry for Students of Medicine and Biology
Introduction to the material covered in standard examinations
by Dirk Röbke and Udo Wolfgramm
Rote learning is one way to pass examinations, but really understanding the subject is even better. Most textbooks are limited to presenting facts without helping the reader review and practice. This workbook fills the gap with more than 1,000 sample examination questions from general, inorganic and organic chemistry. With it, students can practice and deepen what they have learned from textbooks. The problems can be solved without aids, and solutions are provided with detailed explanations. The workbook enjoys great popularity after helping countless students study successfully. From the contents: atomic structure and chemical bonds: noble gas configuration, electronegativity, hybridization, intermolecular interactions | nomenclature and structural formulas of inorganic and organic compounds | chemical equations: double transformations, acid-base reactions, complexes | quantities and concentrations of substance: gravimetry, titrations, percent by mass and by volume | law of mass action | acids, bases and salts: calculating pH value, titration curves, buffers, solubility product | redox reactions and oxidation numbers, Nernst equation | complex compounds | configurational and conformational isomerism | inductive and mesomeric effects | substitution, addition, elimination | aromatic compounds: reactions and second substitution | natural products: carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, peptides | carbonyl reactions: carboxylic acids, aldehydes, ketones

The small Souci/Fachmann/Kraut
by Founded by S.W. Souci, W. Fachmann and H. Kraut. Revised by Dr. Petra Steinhaus. Edited by the Leibniz Institute of Food Systems Biology at the Technical University of Munich.
■ How many omega-3 fatty acids does salmon contain? ■ Which dairy product contains the most calcium? ■ How iron-rich is spinach, really? Whether calories, vitamins or amino acids – whether in field beans, bananas, eggs, chicken, parmesan cheese or onion – it is all here.

This edition with thousands of values has been completely revised and updated by the Leibniz Institute of Food Systems Biology at the Technical University of Munich. Extra: 32 summary tables cover more than 300 other, less common foods and allow for targeted, clear comparisons. 16 orientation tables provide information about foods with particularly high or low amounts of ingredients. Nutritional values, energy content, main components and ingredients displayed in uniform systematics and a practical format – just look it up!

October 2016Eine Bildbiographie
by Arno Schmidt, Fanny Esterhazy, Bernd Rauschenbach
Kein anderer Schriftsteller war sich der Bedeutung von Bildern für ein Leben so bewusst wie Arno Schmidt: »Mein Leben?!: ein Tablett voll glitzernder snapshots«, schrieb er in seinem Roman »Aus dem Leben eines Fauns«. Was also wäre adäquater, als Arno Schmidts Leben mit einer Bildbiographie nachzuzeichnen, die mosaikartig das Panorama einer eigenwilligen Schriftstellerexistenz zusammensetzt. Einführende Texte von Bernd Rauschenbach geben einen Überblick über die Stationen von Schmidts Leben – die Kindheit in Hamburg, die Jugend in Schlesien, Kriegszeit und Nachkriegselend, die wiederholten Wohnortwechsel, bis Arno Schmidt in Bargfeld in der Lüneburger Heide die »ihm gemäße Landschaft« findet. Für diese erste umfangreiche Bildbiographie über Arno Schmidt hat die Herausgeberin Fanny Esterházy in Archiven nachgeforscht und Unbekanntes und Verblüffendes zutage gefördert: Fotos, Zeichnungen, Dokumente aller Art, Bücher und Manuskripte, Notizen und Briefe, Zeitungsartikel, Alltägliches und Kurioses. Ergänzt und erläutert wird das vielfältige Material durch Textpassagen aus Arno Schmidts Werk, Auszüge aus den Tagebüchern von Arno und Alice Schmidt sowie Kommentare von Kollegen und Freunden.

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2023Republican passions
Family, friendship and politics in nineteenth-century France
by Susan K. Foley
Republican passions demonstrates the crucial role of family and friendship networks in the creation of the French Third Republic. Based on the family archives of Léon Laurent-Pichat, journalist, Deputy and Life Senator, this study paints a rich picture of republican intimacy, sociability and political activity during the Second Empire and early Third Republic. It explores republican friendships and family connections as men and women worked together for the cause. In republican circles, as the book illustrates, the intimate and political realms were not separate but deeply intertwined and interdependent.

September 2009Über die Unsterblichkeit
Erzählungen und Essays
by Arno Schmidt, Jan Philipp Reemtsma, Jan Philipp Reemtsma
»Würden die Menschen nicht besser werden, wenn sie nicht an die Unsterblichkeit glaubten?!« fragt Arno Schmidt in seinem Roman Das steinerne Herz. Er zielt mit dieser Frage auf ein Thema, das ihn ein Leben lang beschäftigte: Als unsterblich, also »als immerfort mitlebend«, galten ihm allein die Schriftsteller, deren Literatur dem liebend lesenden Auge mühelos Brücken in abgesunkene Zeiten schlägt. Doch Schmidt wäre nicht Schmidt, hätte er das Thema nicht auch ironisch gewendet. Die Last unsterblichen Ruhmes malt er in Tina oder über die Unsterblichkeit lustvoll aus: Die Berühmten müssen sich nach ihrem Tod in einem höllischen Elysium für eine Ewigkeit langweilen, bis man sie endlich vergessen hat. In Caliban über Setebos sucht ein profaner Orpheus in einem unterweltlichen Bauerndorf voller Hades-Schatten nach der verlorenen Geliebten. Jan Philipp Reemtsma hat für diesen Band aus dem umfangreichen Werk Arno Schmidts Texte ausgewählt, die erzählend oder essayistisch über den Nachruhm sinnieren und der Frage nach der Geschichtlichkeit allen Seins überraschende Pointen abgewinnen.
