Alfonso Hophan gelingt mit seinen drei Erzählungen ein außergewöhnliches Triptychon von hohem literarischem Wert. "Schuld Ein Geständnis" vereint eine kürzere und zwei lange Erzählungen, die stilistisch sowie inhaltlich zwar verschieden sind, jedoch thematisch in einem zusammengehörenden Ganzen aufgehen. Dem 1992 geborenen Autor gelingt es darin, sich zutiefst moralischen Fragen auf eine ausgesprochen menschliche Art und Weise zu nähern. Ohne zu werten oder zu richten, bewegt Alfonso Hophan sich in seinem zweiten Buch im Graubereich zwischen Kausalität, Verantwortung und empfundener Schuld. "Weißgott" ist der Monolog eines reuigen alten Mannes im Krankenbett, der einem Pfarrer eine...

These markers are evaluated in the context of genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic profiles, which is integral to the practice of precision medicine. The application of next gener...
Coastal Disasters and Climate Change in Vietnam is the first book to focus specifically on natural hazards and climate change in Vietnam. The book examines threats such as tropical cyclones, sea-level rise, flooding, erosion, and salinity intrusion, and their respective effects on coastal structures and environments. It also looks at crucial management and mitigation efforts, including breakwater design, irrigation systems, coastal dunes and dikes, and more. The challenges faced by this country in the future will have important regional and global repercussions; areas such as the Mekong Delta produce a significant proportion of the world's rice, and coastal impacts on this region will have far-reaching economic and public health effects. This book is an important source of information for government and local policy makers, environmental and climate scientists, and engineers. - Broad coverage of climate challenges specific to the region, including sea-level rise, storms, erosion, and more - Assessments of impact on, and effects of, economic development and port construction - Examination of public policy responses to climate change

A timely exploration of intellectual dogmatism in politics, economics, religion, and literature—and what can be done to fight it Polarization may be pushing democracy to the breaking point. But few have explored the larger, interconnected forces that have set the stage for this crisis: namely, a rise in styles of thought, across a range of fields, that literary scholar Gary Saul Morson and economist Morton Schapiro call “fundamentalist.” In Minds Wide Shut, Morson and Schapiro examine how rigid adherence to ideological thinking has altered politics, economics, religion, and literature in ways that are mutually reinforcing and antithetical to the open-mindedness and readiness to comprom...
