Seine Gespräche sind legendär. André Müller, der 2011 verstorbene Journalist, beherrschte die Kunst des Interviews wie kaum ein anderer. Viele große Namen der Geisteswelt standen ihm Rede und Antwort. Ernst Jünger, einer der wichtigsten, aber auch kontroversesten Schriftsteller des 20. Jahrhunderts, trifft mit Müller zu drei großen Gesprächen zusammen: am Vorabend des Mauerfalls, am Tag nach dem Beginn der Währungsunion zwischen BRD und DDR und an einem Wintertag 1993. André Müller ist kein zaghafter Interviewer, sondern ein oft messerscharf argumentierender Gesprächspartner. Zwischen ihm und Ernst Jünger entwickelt sich eine unerwartete Freundschaft. Der Schriftsteller gewähr...
The first general study in English of, arguably, the most important German dramatist after Brecht.
The theme of the book is how efficient economic organisation with clearly defined property rights in the framework of a market economy has made possible the development of the South African economy. The book is divided into three periods: 1910-33, 1933-61 and 1961-90. Each of them begins with a brief survey of the growth of population and GDP which is then followed by a more detailed sectoral analysis. The book represents an important general survey of the South African economy in the twentieth century and as such will be required reading for all interested in the making of the modern South African economy.

A wide range of chemical products (especially fine chemicals) are important for a healthy and enjoyable modern life; therefore efficient syntheses of these materials are essential. Traditional stoichiometric processes need to be replaced by modern catalytical methods in the change to sustainable chemistry and the production of lower amounts of waste. This book summarizes the wide variety of catalytic methods that have been developed and applied on an industrial scale in recent years to fulfill this goal. The synthesis of compound classes such as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, flavoring, and fragrance compounds as well as food additives such as vitamins exemplify the use of these modern catalytic methods in the modern chemical industry.
Carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond-forming reactions are the backbone of synthetic organic chemistry. Scientists are constantly developing and improving these techniques in order to maximize the diversity of synthetically available molecules. These techniques must be developed in a sustainable manner in order to limit their environmental impact. This book highlights green bond forming reactions for bioactive scaffolds.
Authored by ESO senior advisor Claus Madsen, the present book comprises 576 action-packed pages of ESO history and dramatic stories about the people behind the organisation. This is the ultimate historical account about ESO and its telescopes in the southern hemisphere, but also about a truly remarkable European success story in research. Spanning the range from the first telescopes to the future platforms of the next generation, it shows how the improvement of the telescopes leads to a continuously changing view of the Universe. With 150 photos and illustrations. Produced especially for ESO's 50th anniversary.
The agricultural food system needs to provide access to enough healthy and affordable food for the growing population and mitigate its impact on the planet for future generations. Emerging technologies can help farmers increase yields.The book presents theoretical and applied aspects of nanotechnology, biotechnology, plant breeding and smart farming to increase plant productivity, crop yield, soil fertility and crop soil monitoring.
