        Editions Difaf, a Lebanese publishing house founded in 2012, in response to the market need of modern and classic Arabic literature, comparative literature and novels in Philosophy and related subjects. The house has faced great challenges and was able to present hundreds of intellectual titles, linguistics and novels. Many of the publishing house books was shortlisted for the following leading literary awards (Sheikh Zayed Book Award, the Booker prize, Naguib Mahfouz) and has become an important source in the studies issued by Arab scholars. Behind this literature is a committee of reviewers who carefully select books eligible for publishing. Editions Difaf created partnership agreements to overcome distribution barriers and governmental censorship. Moreover, the publishing house focused throughout the past years on translating non-Arabic literature. Panda is a part of Edition Difaf which focuses on publishing children's books. Up till now more than 120 titles were published to serve the youth in the Arab countries.

        Die Welt ist flach

        Eine kurze Geschichte des 21. Jahrhunderts

        by Thomas L. Friedman, Michael Bayer, Hans Freundl, Ekkehard Knörer, Thomas Pfeiffer

        Der Weltbestseller im Taschenbuch, erweitert und aktualisiert: Thomas L. Friedmans kontrovers diskutierte Bestandsaufnahme der Gegenwart ist zugleich packende Reportage und prägnante Einführung in das, was die Welt von heute im Innersten antreibt. Globale Wertschöpfungsketten und Insourcing, RFID und Workflow: Friedman schildert die Hintergründe der Schlagworte, stellt uns Menschen vor, deren Visionen unsere Zukunft bestimmen, und führt hinter die Kulissen der Wirtschaftswelt, ob in Bangalore, Indien, wo der asiatische Boom kulminiert, oder in Bentonville, Arkansas, wo das Herz von Wal-Mart schlägt, dem größten Unternehmen der Erde. Er zeigt, welche Veränderungen auf jeden von uns zukommen – weder alarmistisch noch unreflektiert enthusiastisch. Vor allem aber: Friedman doziert nicht, Friedman erzählt.

        Seed Dispersal and Frugivory

        Ecology, Evolution and Conservation

        by Edited by Douglas J Levey, Wesley R Silva, Mauro Galetti

        Until recently, the production of fruits by plants, their consumption by animals (frugivory) and the relevance of these to seed dispersal have attracted less attention than topics such as pollination biology. However, since the 1970s they have started to gain more prominence and now give rise to more research funding, seminal papers and international symposiums. This book contains chapters adapted from the Third International Symposium-Workshop on Frugivores and Seed Dispersal held in August 2000 in Rio Quente, Brazil.

        Small Animal Soft Tissue Surgery

        by Donald Yool

        Small Animal Soft Tissue Surgery provides an introduction to the fundamentals of small animal soft tissue surgery, covering the core principles that underpin all surgery, and key areas of general soft tissue surgery undertaken in general small animal practice. Emphasis is placed on current veterinary practice, the application of basic principles and the importance of patient assessment and appropriate decision making. With a practical focus, the book provides a clear, well-illustrated description of a readily applicable technique for each of the potential problems that face new graduates within non-specialist practices. The learning outcomes at the start of each section define the key areas for undergraduates to focus on and self-assessment MCQs at the end of each section help re-inforce learning outcomes. The text also contains information to enable newly qualified graduates to assess more complex conditions that are frequently encountered in small animal practice. For many practitioners who do not develop a strong interest in more advanced surgery, this text will provide a solid surgical text to last throughout their veterinary career. To enhance accessibility to undergraduate students, the text will emphasise the application of a small number of key principles and limit detailed descriptions to a reduced number of key procedures.

        Electronic Information Distribution in Tourism and Hospitality

        by Peter O’Connor

        Electronic information distribution has become undeniably important in the hospitality and tourism sectors. Using a combination of narrative, analysis and case studies, this text traces the origins of electronic distribution in tourism and places current developments in context, while also looking at developing technologies and assessing their potential effect on the industry of the future. It is written from a managerial (rather than a technical) perspective, and takes an international approach with worldwide analysis and case studies encompassing Europe and the USA as well as the global marketplace. These include discussions of the distribution strategies of companies such as SABRE, Group Accor, Holiday Inn, Utell International, Best Western, as well as examinations of developing systems such as TIS, Gulliver, TravelWeb, Microsoft Expedia, Degriftour, Imminus and THG. Developments in all sectors of the tourism and hospitality industries are explored, but particular emphasis is placed on the accommodation product, illustrating its information distribution through each of the different systems.
