        Kinderleben nach dem Holocaust

        by Rebecca Clifford, Stephan Gebauer

        Schätzungen zufolge überlebten etwa 180.000 zwischen 1935 und 1944 geborene jüdische Kinder den Holocaust. Einige waren versteckt oder mit Kindertransporten in Sicherheit gebracht worden, andere wurden von alliierten Truppen aus Konzentrationslagern befreit. Nach 1945 ging man davon aus, sie würden das Erlebte rasch überwinden oder schlicht vergessen, schließlich hätten sie ja »Glück« gehabt. Ihre Erinnerungen galten als weniger authentisch; in der Forschung spielten sie lange nur eine marginale Rolle. Erst in den letzten Jahren haben sie Anerkennung als Überlebende und Zeuginnen gefunden. In ihrer beeindruckenden Studie folgt Rebecca Clifford diesen sehr jungen Überlebenden auf ihren Wegen aus den Trümmern des Krieges ins Erwachsenenalter. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei die Frage: Wie können Menschen ihrem Leben einen Sinn abgewinnen, wenn sie nicht wissen, woher sie kommen? Wenn sie die Angehörigen verloren haben, die ihnen dabei helfen könnten, ihre fragmentierten Kindheitserinnerungen einzuordnen? Clifford wertet Archivmaterial und Oral-History-Interviews aus und bringt unerwartete und schockierende Geschichten ans Licht. Ihre Befunde zwingen uns, unsere Annahmen über die Folgen von Traumata und die Natur des Gedächtnisses zu revidieren.

        Phosphorus Loss from Soil to Water

        by Edited by H Tunney, P C Brookes, A E Johnston

        Phosphorus is an essential element for plant growth and its input has long been recognised as necessary to maintain profitable crop production. However, phosphorus inputs can also increase the biological activity of surface waters and this can lead to the destruction of such aquatic ecosystems. Advanced eutrophication of surface water leads to problems with its use for fisheries, recreation, industry and drinking, due to the increased growth of undesirable algae and aquatic weeds, and oxygen shortages caused by their death and decomposition. It is therefore important to have a good understanding of the causes and mode of phosphorus loss from soil to water, to enable the problems to be controlled and managed. This book has been developed from an international workshop held in Ireland in late 1995. It is the first comprehensive consideration of the topic, and many leading researchers in the area have contributed to it. It is essential reading for all soil scientists and freshwater biologists, as well as for environmentalists, ecologists and agriculturalists concerned with sustainable land management and pollution. The book is also recommended to fisheries managers, fertilizer manufacturers and biologists working for water utilities.

        Key Questions in Environmental Toxicology

        A Study and Revision Guide

        by J P F D'Mello

        Key Questions in Environmental Toxicology is designed as a self-study tool for undergraduate students. Questions review the origin, characterization and environmental distribution of major pollutants, followed by their absorption and metabolic disposition in living organisms. They address implications for the development of cancer, cardiovascular disease, pulmonary dysfunction and neurological conditions in relation to gaseous pollutants, particulates, persistent organic compounds and radioactive emissions, then cover the impact of pollutants on biodiversity, food safety, and water contamination. This book: - Covers toxicology from human morbidity, ecological impact and biodiversity perspectives, and emphasises the impact of diverse organic pollutants in worsening these interconnected phenomena, leading to wider environmental emergencies; - Provides a selection of fill-in-the-gap, multiple choice and short answer question types for students to vary their learning and enhance motivation; - Includes full answer rationales, allowing students to gain true insight into the subject. Providing support to programmes across environmental science, ecology and human health, and covering all the major biological toxins and pollutants as well as unintended consequences of actions designed to improve outcomes, this book may be used in conjunction with the companion volume Introduction to Environmental Toxicology.

        Kaspar Hauser’s Brothers and Sisters. In search of the wild man

        by P. J. Blumenthal

        What makes human beings human? Is it a life in society that makes us what we are? We often hear stories of persons who have survived in the wild without social contact or who were supposedly raised by wild animals. Kaspar Hauser is probably the most well-known example, but certainly not the only one. P. J. Blumenthal has taken up the hunt for the “wild man” Homo ferus on the boundary between man and animal.
