        Der letzte Mohikaner. Der Lederstrumpf. Zweiter Band

        In der Bearbeitung der Übersetzung von C. Kolb u.a. durch Rudolf Drescher. Mit Illustrationen von O.C. Darley. Vollständige Ausgabe. 5 Bände. Mit einer Nachbemerkung von Peter Härtling

        by James Fenimore Cooper, D.E. Darley, E. Kolb

        James Fenimore Cooper wurde am 15. September 1789 in Burlington, New Jersey / USA geboren. Nach seiner Geburt gründete sein Vater die Stadt Cooperstown, wo die Familie fortan lebte. 1802 begann Cooper ein Studium an der Universität Yale, der er jedoch drei Jahre später verwiesen wurde. Nach einigen Jahren als Offizier bei der Handels- und Kriegsmarine lebte er mit seiner Familie in Cooperstown, Westchester, Long Island und in New York. Sein erster Roman Precaution (1820) war ein Mißerfolg, doch schon der Nachfolger The Spy (1821) war der Beginn einer erfolgreichen, internationalen Karriere. Heute ist er vor allem durch seine Lederstrumpf-Romane bekannt. Nach einer dreijährigen Europareise ließ er sich ab 1833 endgültig in Cooperstown nieder. Er begann sich kritisch mit Gesellschaftsverhältnissen auseinanderzusetzen, was Ablehnung und Anfeindungen nach sich zog. Mit dem 1840 veröffentlichten The Pathfinder konnte er jedoch wieder an seine früheren Erfolge anknüpfen. Er starb am 14. September 1851 in Cooperstown.

        Theory and Clinical Practice of Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion (in Chinese and English)

        by Chen Shaozong

        For decades, Prof. Chen Shaozong has been dedicating to the research on the modern acupuncture and moxibustion system that is different from the traditional paradigm. As early as 1990, he published Theory and Clinical Application of Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion. The book is the prototype of the modern acupuncture and moxibustion system, though it contains merely 100,000 Chinese characters. 21 years later in 2011, Prof. Chen Shaozong published Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion that contains nearly 1 million Chinese characters with more informative content and a more comprehensive theoretical system. At the same time, as acupuncture and moxibustion grows into a more international discipline, the European and American community of acupuncture and combustion is going beyond the study of traditional acupuncture and moxibustion to start exploring into the acupuncture and moxibustion system in the context of modern science and technology. In recent years, they have gradually developed "western acupuncture and moxibustion" represented by "dry needling". As a response to the huge challenges brought by the evolution of western acupuncture and moxibustion, we published the six-volume Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion by Prof. Chen Shaozong in 2018. Containing more than 3 million Chinese characters, this book features richer content and a further improved theoretical system.   A few foreign universities have expressed their hope to have a compact edition of Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion in Chinese and English languages based on the original edition so that they can use it as a textbook in teaching. This is how this Theory and Clinical Practice of Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion (in Chinese and English) comes into being. It is believed that the publication of this book not only benefits the international exchange and communication on acupuncture and moxibustion, but also produces positive impact on the orientation of the discipline.
