        Does Movement Really Make Us Smart?

        by Petra Jansen, Stefanie Richter

        Media reports often praise movement as a cure-all. But apart from its undisputed positive effect on health, does movement really make us smarter? Consider a national football team, for example – are these excessively sports-driven players automatically the smartest people? Should we simply replace all school subjects with sports? The authors provide a detailed summary of the latest scientific findings on the influence of movement on cognitive ability. They describe the effects of movement, on old age, embodiment, emotion, school as well as other factors that influence cognition. Target Group: teachers, lecturers, psychologists, psychiatrists, neurologists, psychotherapists, movement therapists.

        Is this real?

        Die Kultur des HipHop

        by Gabriele Klein, Malte Friedrich

        "HipHop ist die erfolgreichste und folgenreichste Popkultur, die die globale Kulturindustrie hervorgebracht hat. In Is this real? geht es nicht um die Werke, sondern um die kulturelle Praxis des HipHop; Lebensstil und Lebensgefühl stehen im Mittelpunkt. HipHop wird als eine hybride Kultur vorgestellt, die sich im ›Dazwischen‹ von Ethnizität und Authentizität, Globalisierung und Lokalisierung, von Bild und Wirklichkeit, von Theater und Realität, von Ritualität und Profanität entfaltet. Die Frage nach der Herstellung von Wirklichkeit wird in medien-, kultur- und sozialwissenschaftlichen Debatten der spätmodernen Gesellschaften besonders diskutiert. In der HipHop-Kultur ist die Frage »Is this real?« besonders virulent, weil HipHop eine theatrale Kulturpraxis ist und als solche Wirklichkeit herstellt. Das Buch entwickelt also nicht nur eine neue Perspektive auf die HipHop-Kultur. Es macht am Beispiel dieser Popkultur auch kulturtheoretisch aktuelle Fragen anschaulich. Damit ist das Buch zugleich ein unverzichtbarer Baustein zum Verständnis von Populärkultur und alltagskulturellen Praktiken in Mediengesellschaften. "

        Real and Reel

        The education of a film critic

        by Brian McFarlane

        From a little before ten years of age Brian McFarlane became addicted to stories told on the screen, and the mere fact that he had difficulty in getting to see the films he wanted - or any for that matter - only made them seem more alluring. But it wasn't just seeing the films that mattered: he also wanted, and quite soon needed, to be writing about them and these obsessions have been part of his life for the next sixty-odd years. Real and reel is a light-hearted and but deeply felt account of a lifetime's addiction. It is one particular writer and critic's story, but it will strike sparks among many others. Though many other interests have kept Brian McFarlane's life lively, nothing else has exerted such a long-standing grip on the author's imagination as film. Editor of the Encyclopaedia of British Cinema, co-editor of Manchester University Press's British Film Makers series, and author of over a dozen critical works on film and adaptation, Brian McFarlane's autobiographical Real and reel can also be read as a biography of the subject of Film Studies itself. ;

        Juli can’t wait for the holidays. His cousin Jenny and he can once more go to her uncle’s Superhero Hotel. Maybe the next superhero adventure will be awaiting them there?

And as the real superheroes are still lazing around at the swimming pool, and Bruce suddenly has to go and defend the world against an alien invasion, it’s once more left to Juli and Jenny to prevent this disaster! Armed with nothing more than a cheap pair of X-ray laser glasses with which they can see through walls, doors and even people’s clothes (villains in underpants – not a pretty sight!). And while Juli is still asking “What on earth are we doing here?” he and Jenny find themselves in the middle of a crazy adventure that takes them all round the world – across the desert, through London, and on to Paris! Can Juli and Jenny stop the evil villain and his giant rabbits in time?

        The Little Honey Bee and Friends

        by Friederun Reichenstetter/ Hans-Günther Döring

        Bees, butterflies, ladybirds! So many insects are out and about in our native meadows. This puzzle book is full of little informative texts, animal stickers and pictures to colour in which not only educate but also promote early awareness about the environment and conservation. The pedagogical concept works through age-appropriate tasks and a clear structure: true-to-nature picture book illustrations on the left-hand side with a short factual text that can be read aloud or independently, plus a quiz question, then on the right-hand side are stickers and a puzzle to colour in. Testing knowledge is good. But this goes further: encouraging children to be inquisitive and imaginative about nature. At the end each animal sticker book with the little honey bee will look different. However you want it to be.

        The Staple of News

        by David Bevington, Tony Parr, Richard Dutton, Alison Findlay, Helen Ostovich

        Excellent Revels text now back in print at the new £9.99 price. Leading edition of this play by Ben Jonson - no other edition of this calibre at the moment. Professor Anthony Parr has a proven track record with the Three Jacobean Travel Plays (now in paperback at £14.99). The complete canon of Ben Jonson is being brought back into print in the Revels. The play itself is one of Jonson's best and has a prescient storyline about journalism being traduced and becoming entertainment instead of remaining factual. ;

        Mock-documentary and the subversion of factuality

        by Craig Hight, Jane Roscoe

        The first major study of mock-documentary - one of a number of screen forms that play with the assumed boundaries between 'fact' and 'fiction'. Examines mock-documentary through the specific relationship which the form has with documentary. Part of a wider discussion of the increasingly fragile association between factual codes and conventions and the discourses which underpin the documentary genre. Includes detailed discussions of a number of key mock-documentary texts, ranging from Woody Allen's Zelig, Peter Greenaway's The Falls, and the Beatles spoof The Rutles through to such classic examples as Bob Roberts, This is Spinal Tap and Man Bites Dog. Opens out this relatively new media form and by doing so throws light on the status of the documentary itself.
