A hospital somewhere in remote South Sudan. A place where peoples’ lives are marked by extreme poverty, war, violence, the climate crisis and the daily struggle for survival. How does it feel to be human under these conditions? What moves someone to voluntarily go where nobody would want to? Andreas Lutz takes you on a journey to a project run by the humanitarian aid organization Médecins Sans Frontières in the northeast of South Sudan. Impressed by encounters with people who live under the precarious conditions of this crisis zone, he writes about his experiences as a caregiver and, among other things, about how healthcare provision works with very limited resources.

Dieser Band bietet eine kritische, durchaus kontroverse und facettenreiche Diskussion der gegenwärtigen Forschung auf dem Gebiet der Kognitionswissenschaften. Bei der Darstellung wurde darauf geachtet, daß ein einführender Charakter gewahrt bleibt. Die in den Beiträgen behandelten Themenkomplexe eröffnen den Blick auf die Kognitionswissenschaft aus der Sicht verschiedener Teildisziplinen, so daß der Leser ein Bild davon gewinnen kann, wie sich mit dem Wechsel des Standpunkts unterschiedliche Perspektiven innerhalb desselben Gebiets erschließen. Wie der Mensch in den Kognitionswissenschaften erscheint, ist im übrigen keineswegs unabhängig davon, wie und als was die Kognitionswissenschaften ihrerseits gesehen werden. Um diesen zweifachen Blick – denjenigen auf den Menschen aus der Sicht der Kognitionswissenschaften und denjenigen auf die Kognitionswissenschaften selbst – geht es in diesem Band.

Gold bricks produced by the imperial kiln in Suzhou in eastern Jiangsu Province are not actually made of gold. The smooth, shiny bricks are big and square. They got their name from their quality, the tedious manufacturing process and the high cost involved. The bricks, which have long been used to build imperial palaces, are a specialty of Lumu, a small village near Yangcheng Lake in Suzhou. In the early 15th century when the Forbidden City began to be constructed, the bricks made in Lumu were recommended to the Ming government (1368-1644). Central government officials assigned to Lumu found the yellow earth in Lumu was especially good to make bricks. Besides the special material, the advanced firing technique and the strict firing procedures of the Lumu kiln also contributed to producing the high-quality gold bricks. Thus the Lumu kiln was named the Imperial Kiln by the Ming emperor.
