        Merry Christmas!

        Die schönsten Weihnachtsgeschichten aus England

        by Ria Blaicher, Günther Blaicher

        Merry Christmas! Charles Dickens, Elizabeth Gaskell, G.K. Chesterton, Dylan Thomas, Angus Wilson, Muriel Spark u.v.a. erzählen Weihnachtsgeschichten aus zwei Jahrhunderten. Da geht es um folgenreiche Geständnisse, geheimnisvolle Verwandlungen, mißglückte Einbrüche und heimliche Liebschaften. Mit angelsächsischem Humor und Feingefühl zeigen diese fünfzehn, zum Großteil erstmals ins Deutsche übersetzten Geschichten, wie selbst kleinere Widrigkeiten die Festtagsstimmung nicht zu trüben vermögen.

        Bloody Weekend. Neun Jugendliche. Drei Tage. Ein Opfer

        by Bennett, M.A.

        Greer will eigentlich nicht dazugehören. Sie genießt es geradezu, Außenseiterin an dem altehrwürdigen Internat St. Aiden zu sein. Sie folgt zwar den unausgesprochenen Regeln der Schule - kein Handy, kein Internet, kein Plastik. Doch sie weiß: Zu den "Medievals", der herrschenden Clique um den reichen Henry de Waldencourt, wird sie nie gehören. Als sie die begehrte Einladung erhält, ein Jagd-Wochenende auf Henrys Anwesen zu verbringen, fühlt sich Greer wider Willen geschmeichelt und sagt zu. Doch vor Ort wird schnell klar, dass es um weit mehr geht als um eine bloße Jagd auf Hasen und Hirsche. Greer und zwei weitere Jugendliche kämpfen schon bald um ihr Überleben in der Wildnis. Und die Jagd ist erst der Anfang.

        Sieben

        by Bennett, M.A.

        Wer willst du sein? Opfer oder Täter? Nach jahrelangem, heftigem Mobbing an der Schule hofft Link, dass sie alle tot sind. Dass sie umgekommen sind bei dem Flugzeugabsturz, den er wie durch ein Wunder überlebt hat. Aber sein Hochgefühl währt nur kurz. Denn Links Mitschüler sind alle noch da - sie sind mit ihm auf einer tropischen Insel gestrandet und mehr als bereit, ihn weiter zu erniedrigen. Ziemlich schnell jedoch ist klar: Hier in der Wildnis steht die Schulhierarchie auf dem Kopf. Das Recht des körperlich Stärkeren ist außer Kraft gesetzt und einzig Link als Nerd verfügt über das Wissen zum Überleben. *** Sie haben dich gedemütigt, bis du am Boden lagst. Was würdest du tun, wenn endlich DU am Drücker wärst? Wie schlimm wäre deine Rache? Jetzt machst DU die Regeln. Jetzt wird das Opfer zum Täter. Provokant und schillernd böse: Dieser Thriller der Extraklasse ist bis zur letzten Seite ein packender Kampf ums Überleben! Für alle Thriller- und Krimi-Leser ab 14.

        Analytical Techniques for Natural Product Research

        by Satyanshu Kumar

        Plants are important source of lead molecules for drug discovery. These lead molecules serve as starting materials for laboratory synthesis of drug as well a model for production of biologically active compounds. Phytochemical processing of raw plant materials is essentially required to optimize the concentration of known constituents and also to maintain their activities. Extraction techniques and analytical techniques have played critical roles in phytochemical processing of raw materials. Extraction technologies from conventional extraction to green extraction as well as analytical techniques from single technique to hyphenated/coupled techniques most frequently used in phytochemistry laboratories are covered in the book.

        'The better class' of Indians

        Social rank, Imperial identity, and South Asians in Britain 1858–1914

        by A. Wainwright

        This is the first book-length study to focus primarily on the role of class in the encounter between South Asians and British institutions in the United Kingdom at the height of British imperialism. In a departure from previous scholarship on the South Asian presence in Britain, 'The better class' of Indians emphasizes the importance of class as the register through which British polite society interpreted other social distinctions such as race, gender, and religion. Drawing mainly on unpublished material from the India Office Records, the National Archives, and private collections of charitable organizations, this book examines not only the attitudes of British officials towards South Asians in their midst, but also the actual application of these attitudes in decisions pertaining to them. This fascinating book will be of particular interest to scholars and general readers of imperialism, immigration as well as British and Indian social history.
