Classic fiction (pre c 1945)2019The Girl with a Teddy Bear. Doctor Seraficus
by V. Domontovych
This book contains two of the most famous works of V. Domontovych. One of them is an engaging and somewhat extravagant novel The Girl with a Teddy Bear that describes the love of a sagacious teacher and his rebellious student. The novel is also a brilliant example of intellectual prose about the changing cultural orientations and the tragic personal conflict of a person destined to live in the time of change. The second one is Doctor Seraficus. It is the story of a strange and infantile ascetic professor who preaches a peculiar sort of “Don Juanism in reverse”: the desire to love all women and denounce all of them simultaneously.

Technology, Engineering & AgricultureNovember 2023Farmer Innovations and Best Practices by Shifting Cultivators in Asia-Pacific
by Malcolm Cairns
This book, the third of a series, shows how shifting cultivators, from the Himalayan foothills to the Pacific Islands, have devised ways to improve their farming systems. Using case studies collected over many years, it considers the importance of swidden agriculture to food security and livelihoods, and its environmental significance, across multiple cultures, forest and cropping systems. There is a particular focus on soil fertility and climate change challenges. It is a 'must read' for those who realize that if the lives of shifting cultivators are to be improved, then far more attention needs to be directed to the indigenous and often ingenious innovations that shifting cultivators have themselves been able to develop. Many of these innovations and best practices will have strong potential for extrapolation to shifting cultivators elsewhere and to farming systems in general. This book: - Highlights innovations of shifting cultivators. - Combines solid science with accessible language and outstanding artwork. - Provides a collection of case studies unprecedented in its scope. This book will be suitable for students and researchers of agriculture, anthropology, sociology, agricultural economics, human ecology, ethnobotany, forestry, agroforestry, agronomy, soil science, farming systems, geography, environmental science and natural resource management.

Humanities & Social SciencesAugust 2022Britain and its internal others, 1750–1800
Under rule of law
by Dana Rabin
The rule of law, an ideology of equality and universality that justified Britain's eighteenth-century imperial claims, was the product not of abstract principles but imperial contact. As the Empire expanded, encompassing greater religious, ethnic and racial diversity, the law paradoxically contained and maintained these very differences. This book revisits six notorious incidents that occasioned vigorous debate in London's courtrooms, streets and presses: the Jewish Naturalization Act and the Elizabeth Canning case (1753-54); the Somerset Case (1771-72); the Gordon Riots (1780); the mutinies of 1797; and Union with Ireland (1800). Each of these cases adjudicated the presence of outsiders in London - from Jews and Gypsies to Africans and Catholics. The demands of these internal others to equality before the law drew them into the legal system, challenging longstanding notions of English identity and exposing contradictions in the rule of law.

PsychiatryIntoduction to Affect Phobia Therapy
by Dr. Quin van Dam
A fear of one’s own emotions can lead people to develop what has been termed emotion- or affect phobia. To deal with this specific kind of phobia, Affect Phobia Therapy (APT) has proven to be useful. In APT, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, and experimental techniques are combined to help the patient to learn to accept and manage emotions again. Research shows that especially people suffering from anxiety or depression and people with avoidant or dependent personality disorders benefit from this method. This book offers a practical explanation of this evidence-based therapeutic method. The eight chapters focus on all different aspects of APT and the underlying theoretical concepts are illustrated with example patient-therapist dialogues. Target Group: psychologists, psychotherapists, students

Frau Grubers Lager
by Ted Barr
Frau Grubers Lager Das Manifest der Asche des Hahns von Ted Barr Wo liegen die Grenzen des Bösen? Was ist der Sinn des Lebens am Abgrund des willkürlichen plötzlichen Todes? Was ist ein Leben hinter einem Elektrozaun Wert? Frau Grubers Lager ist ein spannendes Gleichnis über den Glauben der Menschen in ihrer dunkelsten Zeiten, mit Anklängen an George Orwells Meisterwerk Animal Farm. Eine Welt, in der Menschen wie Frau Gruber, Herr Schickl und ihre krankhaften Mitarbeiter leben, ist nicht die, in der wir leben. Obwohl ihre Welt in vielerlei Hinsicht ähnlich zu sein scheint, ist sie eher ein Parallel-Universum, einen Schritt von der Realität, die wir kennen, entfernt. Doch manchmal verschwimmen die Unterschiede und wir werden in diese Welt hinein gezogen. In diesem überraschenden und rätselhaften Roman wird der Leser langsam und vorsichtig in einen imaginären Mikrokosmos geführt – eine fantastische Welt, die poetisch und schrecklich, manchmal herzzerreißend und manchmal erschreckend ist, und in der das Leben nicht mehr ist als eine transparente Ware. Die Hähne als Menschen sind nur momentane Besucher in einem viel größeren Spektakel, dessen Bedeutung zu begreifen sie zu kurzsichtig sind (außer dem alten Hahn Ba Ba Loop, der wie die alten Propheten die Augen hat zu sehen, aber nicht über die Macht verfügt, etwas zu ändern). Die einzige Möglichkeit, in solchen schrecklichen Zeiten noch einen Sinn zu finden, ist die Verbannung der Zeit in die Erinnerung. Dies ist die Grundidee dieses Romans: menschlicher Glauben, Vergessen, Erinnern, und die Quintessenz des Lebens in einer unmöglichen Epoche. Obwohl der Ausgangspunkt des Romans eine Beschreibung der frühen Kindheit Adolf Hitlers ist, geht Frau Grubers Lager viel weiter, als nur eine Geschichte zu erzählen, die in vielerlei Hinsicht Parallelen zu Geschichte der europäischen Juden hat. Vielmehr wird ein Gleichnis der menschlichen Erfahrung im zwanzigsten Jahrhundert durch die Augen eines zeitgenössischen Helden des einundzwanzigsten Jahrhunderts entfaltet. Der Autor, Ted Barr, 54, hat einen Master-Abschluss in Wirtschaftswissenschaften und ist auf vielen Gebieten versiert, darunter deutsche Geschichte, Symbolik, Batallions- und Divisions-Taktik sowie Astronomie. Barr ist ein renommierter Künstler, spezialisiert auf Galaxien und andere Himmelskörper. Der Autor hat eine einzigartige Maltechnik entwickelt, die er in Workshops auf der ganzen Welt unterrichtet. Ted Barr ist der Gründer der Current Art Group, und seine künstlerische Tätigkeit kann auf seiner Website www.tedpaintings.com betrachtet werden. Eine hebräische Ausgabe von Frau Grubers Lager wurde erstmals in Israel im Jahr 2006 veröffentlicht. Ted Barrs erstes Buch, Krombee, ein Kinderbuch, erschien im Jahr 1990.
