Kommunistin, Mutter, Topspionin | Vom unglaublichen, aber wahren Leben der Spionin Ursula Kuczynski (alias Ruth Werner), die den Lauf der Weltgeschichte veränderte
by Kathrin Bielfedt, Jürgen Bürger, Ben Macintyre
Ursula Kuczynski wuchs in einer großbürgerlichen jüdischen Familie in Berlin-Schlachtensee auf. In New York bewegte sie sich in den besten Kreisen. Sie hatte Affären, war mehrmals verheiratet und hatte Kinder. Doch ihre große, wahre Liebe galt dem Kommunismus. Ihm diente sie als Saboteurin, Bombenbauerin und Geheimagentin. Ihr Codename: »Agent Sonja«. 1923, Ursula ist gerade einmal sechzehn Jahre alt, wird sie bei einer 1.-Mai-Demonstration von einem Polizisten niedergeknüppelt. Es ist nur ein Grund mehr für sie, der Kommunistischen Partei beizutreten und deren Ideen in die Welt hinauszutragen. Mit Anfang zwanzig begleitet sie ihren ersten Ehemann nach Shanghai, wo sie Richard Sorge kennenlernt. Der Meisterspion wirbt sie für den russischen Geheimdienst an und sorgt dafür, dass sie in Moskau eine Ausbildung zur Agentin absolviert. Von dort aus geht es für sie in die Mandschurei und anschließend in die Schweiz, wo sie ein Bombenattentat auf Hitler plant. In den 50er Jahren wird sie in der DDR unter dem Namen Ruth Werner zur Erfolgsautorin.Den größten Dienst erweist sie der Sowjetunion aber, indem sie zwischen 1943 und 1949 Informationen über das britische Atomprogramm an Moskau weitergibt – eine der gefährlichsten Spionageaktionen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Spannend und temporeich wie einen Thriller erzählt der Spionageexperte und Bestseller-Autor Ben Macintyre das unglaubliche, aber wahre Leben einer Spionin, die den Lauf der Weltgeschichte maßgeblich verändert hat.

BiotechnologyDecember 2003Intellectual Property Rights in Agricultural Biotechnology, 2nd Edition
by Edited by Frederic H Erbisch, Karim M Maredia
During the past twenty-five years, biotechnology has revolutionized agricultural research. The enormous potential, together with a landmark decision by the US Supreme Court to allow the patenting of genetically-engineered organisms has encouraged private sector companies to invest in agricultural biotechnology research programmes. This has contributed to a rapid growth in interest in intellectual property rights as applied to this subject.The first edition of this book was published in 1998. Now fully revised and updated it presents definitive information on intellectual property law in a simplified form (with a minimum of legal jargon). New chapters have been added which cover plant variety protection and farmers rights, and additional case studies.

EconomicsSeptember 1997Common Agricultural Policy, 2nd Edition
by Edited by Christopher Ritson, David R Harvey
The first edition of this book, published in 1991 with the title The Common Agricultural Policy and the World Economy, was well received as a timely analysis of this fast-moving but important subject. However, several major developments, such as general CAP reform, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), expansion of the European Union, and relationships with eastern Europe, have justified the need for a new edition. As a result, the book has been thoroughly updated, with some completely new chapters added and others replaced. It has also be rewritten with a greater emphasis on the needs of students for a well-integrated, comprehensive textbook.

Non-graphic art formsMay 2012The 'do-it-yourself' artwork
Participation from Fluxus to New Media
by Edited by Anna Dezeuze
Viewers of contemporary art are often invited to involve themselves actively in artworks, by entering installations, touching objects, performing instructions or clicking on interactive websites. Why have artists sought to engage spectators in these new forms of participation? In what ways does active participation affect the viewer's experience and the status of the artwork? Spanning a range of practices including kinetic art, happenings, environments, performance, installations, relational and new media art from the 1950s to the present, this critical anthology sheds light on the history and specificity of artworks that only come to life when you - the viewer - are invited to 'do it yourself.' Rather than a specialist topic in the history of twentieth- and twenty-first century art, the 'do-it-yourself' artwork raises broader issues concerning the role of the viewer in art, the status of the artwork and the socio-political relations between art and its contexts.
