      • world-wide-wealth (c/o autónomy)

        ... wealth is not materialism - not in universe (only 5% is about matter) and not on earth (it´s all about education: i.a. as a buddhists, you are happy, if YOU are happy - and not comparing - and NOT buying things you don´t need, with money you don´t have, to impress people you don´t like ... ). I invented the formulas of TIME (as such), SPACE (as such) and DYNAMIC  RELATIVITY ( as such ... relativizing Albert Einstein - and explaining the 95% of astronomy not known up to now:  23% "dark matter" and 72" "dark energy"). Wealth is not materialistic. At least not in universe, expanding since 13.8 billion years, with faaar less problems, than those of the so called "homo-sapiens"...  . "Space" in the 4th ("energetic-") dimension (not in the "low-level" 3-D-version of combating for territories or market-shares), space, is the top of the top targets of universe - and all this is transferable to mankind ... in order to achieve  world-wide-wealth !!!

        Volunteer Tourism: Experiences that Make a Difference

        by Edited by Stephen Wearing

        Volunteer tourism describes a field of tourism in which travellers visit a destination and take part in projects in the local community. Projects are commonly nature-based, people-based or involve restoration of buildings and artefacts.Contemporary volunteer tourism has tended to suffer from a lack of differentiation from other forms of tourism or volunteering, falling into areas such as alternative tourism, international volunteering, social work and conservation corps work. The aim of this book is to provide it with a more specific identity.This book provides:An overview of the phenomenon of volunteer tourism, its sources and its development as a conceptA focus on the potential positive social and environmental benefits of volunteer tourism, and the prerequisites for a successful experience

        Vitamin D

        The healing power of the sunshine vitamin

        by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Michael F. Holick

        Vitamin D deficiency is a global health problem that puts the quality of life and life expectancy of more than a billion children and adults at risk worldwide. Many lifestyle diseases may be associated with vitamin D deficiency: myocardial infarction, infections, cancer, neurological diseases, stroke, type 2 diabetes, to name just a few. This 4th updated edition incorporates numerous new insights into the therapeutic effect of vitamin D, including its importance for a healthy pregnancy, prenatal imprinting, optimum sporting performance, diabetes mellitus and autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis or multiple sclerosis. Since the metabolism and the effect of vitamin D are supported by a complex network of micronutrients – for example, magnesium, vitamin A or vitamin K – a specific chapter is devoted to this network. Here, the reader can discover how vitamin D successfully protects against diseases, improves the quality of life and optimises medication and treatment!

        International Volunteer Tourism

        Integrating Travellers and Communities

        by Stephen Wearing, Nancy Gard McGehee

        Volunteer tourism has increased in popularity and prevalence and is no longer considered only a small section of alternative tourism. It is now part of the mainstream tourism industry and tourism experience for many people. Concentrating on the experience of the volunteer tourist and the host community, this new book builds on the view of volunteer tourism as a positive and sustainable form of tourism to examine a broader spectrum of behaviours and experiences and consider critically where the volunteer tourist experience both compliments and collides with host communities, using multiple case studies.

        Going Organic

        Mobilizing Networks for Environmentally Responsible Food Production

        by Stewart Lockie, Kristen Lyons, Geoffrey Lawrence, Darren Halpin

        This book sets out to examine what really is going on in the organic sector socially and politically. In the process, it debunks a number of apparently common-sense beliefs: that organic consumers are wealthy environmental and health extremists; that growth in the industry will inevitably undermine its environmental values; that mainstream media is antagonistic to organics; and that the industry is driven by consumer demand. This book seeks to make a practical contribution to the development of more sustainable food systems by articulating what it takes to get people involved in organics at each stage of the food chain.

        Writing for Art

        The aesthetics of ekphrasis

        by Stephen Cheeke

        Writing for art is a concise introduction to the subject of ekphrasis, and the first study to offer a useful general survey of the larger philosophical and theoretical questions arising from the encounter of literary texts and artworks. Stephen Cheeke offers close readings of poems and prose from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries alongside a generous amount of illustrations, covering a broad range of writing and theory about the relation of literary texts to the visual arts, and extending the subject of ekphrasis to include literary works on photography, as well as celebrated prose descriptions of artworks. ;

        Wie das Zebra zu seinen Streifen kommt

        Essays zur Naturgeschichte

        by Stephen Jay Gould, Stephen Cappellari

        Stephen Jay Goulds Essays zum Thema Evolution befassen sich sowohl mit dem rein politischen und nichtintellektuellen Streit, der durch die Anhänger der Kreationslehre angefacht worden ist, als auch mit der faszinierenden Debatte, die zur Zeit innerhalb der Evolutionstheorie stattfindet. »Das Einfließen von Fragen der Evolution in scheinbar nicht verwandte politische Diskussionen zeigt sowohl das weitläufige Ausmaß dieser Lebenseinstellung als auch den unlösbaren Zusammenhang wissenschaftlicher und sozialer Fragen. Die weiterführende und klarere Sicht, die aus der Evolutionstheorie hervorgeht, könnte unsere Auffassung von der Wissenschaft und von Erklärungsprozessen im allgemeinen vertiefen, indem sie die scheinbare Zufälligkeit der Geschichte und plötzliche Veränderungen (die erst im nachhinein sinnvoll werden) heraushebt gegenüber dem Bild einer vorhersehbaren und regelmäßigen Welt, wie es vom Stereotyp einer sogenannt ›harten‹ Wissenschaft gepredigt wird. Mit diesem Thema beschäftige ich mich in der ganzen Sammlung.« »Nur wenige Autoren sind wie Gould fähig, wissenschaftliche Arbeit mit solcher Klarheit von Denken und Schreiben zu verbinden. [...] Die meisten Essays beginnen mit einer nichtwissenschaftlichen Anekdote, und nach wenigen Seiten sind wir mühelos mitten in der Analyse komplexer biologischer Fragen.« (The New York Times Book Review) Stephen Jay Gould, geb. 1941 in New York, ist Professor an der Harvard Universität und lehrt Geologie, Biologie und Wissenschaftsgeschichte. In der Reihe suhrkamp taschenbuch wissenschaft liegen von seinen Büchern bereits vor: Der falsch vermessene Mensch (stw 583) sowie Der Daumen des Panda (stw 789).

        Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre

        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Matt Hunt, Svenja Becker

        Als kleiner Junge sah Stephen Hawking zu den Sternen hoch und fragte sich, was das Universum sei. Obwohl er nie Klassenbester war, schaffte er es mit seiner Neugier nach Oxford und Cambridge, auf die angesehensten Universitäten Englands. Außerdem entwickelte er eines der bedeutendsten wissenschaftlichen Konzepte des 20. Jahrhunderts: die sogenannte »Hawking-Strahlung«. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Künstlerin, Pilotin oder Wissenschaftler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen. Für welches Alter sind diese Bücher gedacht? Für Babys das perfekte Geschenk zur Begrüßung in eine Welt voller Träume! Und Eltern werden in schlaflosen Nächten von diesen Büchern dazu ermutigt, das Vorlesen zu einem selbstverständlichen Teil des Lebens zu machen. Kleinkinder werden von den Illustrationen verzaubert sein – sie werden zahlreiche Dinge entdecken. Auch sind die Bücher großartige „Vokabeltrainer“! 3- bis 5-Jährige werden alles, Illustrationen und Texte, geradezu in sich aufsaugen! 6-, 8- und 10-Jährige haben ein ausgeprägteres Verständnis für die Illustrationen und die Bedeutung der Geschichte – es geht nicht nur darum, sich selbst zu akzeptieren und die eigenen Zukunftsträume zu verwirklichen, sondern auch darum, andere so zu akzeptieren, wie sie sind. Später: Die Bücher sind gute Geschenke zu jedem Anlass, denn die Träume der Kindheit können das ganze Leben lang Wirklichkeit werden.

        Invasive Plant Ecology in Natural and Agricultural Systems

        by Barbara D Booth, Stephen D Murphy, Clarence J Swanton

        Bringing together reasons for why and where weeds occur and the ecological importance of weed management, this updated edition (previously entitled "Weed Ecology") provides an in-depth study of plant ecology with greater coverage of invasive plant biology and more concise statistics. In a new, larger format, printed in two colours, and illustrated throughout with figures, tables and case studies it is an essential text for students in plant ecology, agriculture and horticulture. Praise for the first edition: "As an undergraduate text [the book] does a superb job of traversing the wide expanse of ecology... several chapters should be key components of any course on understanding weed ecology" - Biological Invasions "The information is provided in short chapters, which are very well written, have their own comprehensive reference lists, and contain many excellent examples from around the world. The book will be an extremely valuable textbook for undergraduate and graduate students studying weed science and agriculture" - Biological Agriculture and Horticulture

        Reading Robin Hood

        Content, form and reception in the outlaw myth

        by Stephen Knight, Anke Bernau

        Reading Robin Hood explores and explains stories about the mythic outlaw, who from the middle ages to the present stands up for the values of natural law and true justice. This analysis of the whole sequence of the adventures of Robin Hood first explores the medieval tradition from early poems into the long-surviving sung ballads, and also two variant Robins: the Scottish version, here named Rabbie Hood, and gentrified Robin, the exiled Earl of Huntington, now partnered by Lady Marian. The nineteenth century re-imagined medieval Robin as modern - he loved nature, Marian, England, and the rights of the ordinary man - and in novels and especially films he has developed further, into an international figure of freedom, just as Marian's role has grown in a modern feminist context. The vigour of the Robin Hood myth still reproduces itself, constantly with new forms and new meanings. ;

        Zoonotic Pathogens in the Food Chain

        by Edited by Denis O Krause, Stephen Hendrick.

        Beginning with their sources, including manure and animal feed, and detailing their development, spread and transmission to humans, Zoonotic Pathogens in the Food Chain gives an insightful introduction to and epidemiological overview of the problems raised by zoonotic pathogens. The authors specifically examine the attributes of microorganisms that allow potential contamination of food sources and the factors in modern animal production processes that contribute to the risk of infection. Chapters discuss in detail pathogens that have recently emerged as important sources of infection, investigating in depth the implications of avian flu, swine flu, bovine spongiform encephalopathies and Johne's disease for human consumers, and considering where potential mitigation strategies should be focused. With a focus on new trends in animal production, such as organic livestock farming and raw milk consumption, this text provides an interesting and up-to-date reference for researchers, academics and those with an interest in pathology working in the livestock industry.

        Zehn Milliarden

        by Stephen Emmott, Anke Burger

        Für die Herstellung eines Burgers braucht man 3000 Liter Wasser. Wir produzieren in zwölf Monaten mehr Ruß als im gesamten Mittelalter und fliegen allein in diesem Jahr sechs Billionen Kilometer. Unsere Enkel werden sich die Erde mit zehn Milliarden Menschen teilen müssen. Haben wir überhaupt eine Zukunft? Stephen Emmott, Leiter eines von Microsoft aufgebauten Forschungslabors und Professor in Oxford, schafft mit 'Zehn Milliarden' etwas Einzigartiges: Das erste Mal zeichnet ein Experte ein aktuelles und für jeden verständliches Bild unserer Lage. Kein theoretischer Überbau, kein moralischer Zeigefinger. Die nackten Fakten sind die dramatische Botschaft dieses Buches – und Emmott bringt sie auf besondere Weise zum Sprechen: in wenigen, klug arrangierten Sätzen und mit Bildern, die einem den Atem rauben. Das ist drastisch, doch viel drastischer ist, was wir der Erde angetan haben und immer noch antun. Und damit uns. 'Zehn Milliarden' ist der letzte Weckruf. Wir dürfen ihn nicht überhören.
