MedicineHumanity in the Crisis Zone
Field Report of a Nurse on H umanitarian Aid with Doctors Without Borders (MSF) in South Sudan
by Andreas F. Lutz
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.

December 2007Die Zukunft der Werte
Dialoge über das 21. Jahrhundert
by Jérôme Bindé, Frank Sievers, Andreas Jandl
Nietzsches Satz von der Umwertung aller Werte stand als prophetisches Motto über dem 20. Jahrhundert, das zunächst ein unvorstellbares Maß an Barbarei und später das postmoderne anything goes erlebte. Das dritte Jahrtausend konfrontiert uns mit neuen Herausforderungen: Der Fortschritt der Gentechnologie und die Erkenntnisse der Neurowissenschaften zwingen uns, Sein und Sollen des Menschen neu zu bestimmen; unter den Bedingungen der Globalisierung prallen unterschiedliche Wertesysteme aufeinander. Zur Diskussion dieser Fragen hat die UNESCO Wissenschaftler, Künstler und Philosophen zusammengebracht, um ein »Bündnis zwischen Politik und weitsichtigem Denken zu knüpfen« (Jérôme Bindé). Der Band dokumentiert die Beiträge von Jean Baudrillard, Julia Kristeva, Paul Ricœur, Michel Serres, Peter Sloterdijk, Gianni Vattimo, Wolfgang Welsch und anderen.

FROM SCRATCH
A Futuristic Apocalyptic Thriller
by Ron Adam
Just as in a Greek tragedy, America is moving towards the inevitable collision with the ultimate threat: the fatal combination of fanatic Islam, nuclear arms, and the richest energy resources in the world. On September 11, 2001, Osama Bin Laden demonstrated to the world how US dollars and American technology could be easily turned around and used as a boomerang to strike into the heart of America. It is easy, though shattering, to imagine what can happen once such fanatic zeal is equipped with the monstrous power of nuclear weapons. A quick look at the map shows that the United States did learn the lesson, and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq were just the closing of the circle around the real threat – Iran. From Scratch takes you into the whirlpool that sweeps the world from a local war in the Persian Gulf through a military coup in Russia - Iran’s new old ally - to a veritable nuclear holocaust. An all-male US submarine crew that unwillingly played an active role in destroying mankind, finds out in the aftermath that the opposite task – to recreate the human race rests on their shoulders – From Scratch. They will emerge, after nine months underwater, at a remote Pacific Island where conditions can again support life. Equipped with cutting-edge technology, they carry with them two dozen frozen fertilized ova, each of which is destined to become a new "Eve", and who together will be the mothers of the new humankind. However, there are too many “Adams” on the island, and more than a hundred men are eagerly waiting for the 24 baby girls to mature into grown women. Therefore the struggle for control over the precious “resource” is predetermined. These men find out that human nature cannot be changed. Even after the ultimate war that destroyed everything, man will go on using sheer force in order to get what he wants and to resolve disputes. Despite the pessimistic scenario, the book is essentially optimistic, and is driven by faith in the law of history: although the good may suffer and pay a precious price, they will eventually prevail. The Author: A Fighter Pilot, Naval Officer, and Senior Hi-tech Engineer. Ron Adam has enjoyed an impressive military career, from Israeli Navy submarine and torpedo boat service to the Israeli Air Force as a fighter pilot, captain of an aircraft carrier, flight instructor, and electronic warfare staff officer. Holding a degree in Electronics Engineering, Adam has headed a 1.2 billion dollar defense program and has also established three high-tech start-ups. Today, Adam is a senior consultant to the aerospace industry, and shares his time between top-level engineering and writing of books and scripts. He is happily married and has 3 children. An English-Language eBook edition has been scheduled for publication in late 2017 by Samuel Wachtman's Sons ,Inc., CA. 180 pages, 15X21 cm

by Andreas H. Schmachtl
There are 24 days to go until Christmas. In the mouse house there is a delicious smell of punch, and Tilda busily hunts through her pantry: she wants to do some baking.

January 1989Die Stunde X
Gedichte
by Martinus Nijhoff, Ard Posthuma, Ard Posthuma, Ard Posthuma
Martinus Nijhoff (1894-1953) war Übersetzer, Literaturkiritker, vor allem Lyriker. Im Mittelpunkt seines Werks stehen die beiden aufeinander bezogenen Langgedichte »Awater« und »Die Stunde X«. Sie gehören zu den großen Gedichten dieses Jahrhunderts. »Ich glaube, daß es in unserem Zeitalter, in dem das Jahrhundert der Individualität von dem der Kollektivität abgelöst wird, für die Schriftsteller keine größere Schwierigkeit gibt als die Form seiner Sprachen. Aus dem Hang zur Universalität möchte man lateinisch oder noch lieber ganz sprachlos schrieben. Die traditionelle Form ist ebenso trügerisch geworden wie der spontane Ergruß.Um aus dieser Sackgasse herauszukommen, kann man zweierlei machen: entweder zurückgreifen auf eine Tradition, die so weit zurückliegt, daß sie aus dem Bewußtsein verschwunden ist, oder aber die heutige Umgangssprache spreche und zum Vibrieren bringen. In meinem Gedicht ›Awater‹, das nach der Form des Rolandsliedes gearbeitet wurde, habe ich ersteres, in meinem Gedicht ›Die Stunde X‹ letzteres versucht«
