The extraordinary true story of a young Jewish art student in wartime Berlin who not just survived but resisted—and retained his infectious zeal for life. Though Cioma Schonhaus was only 11 years old when the Nazis first came to power, his cleverness and resourcefulness eventually made him an unlikely hero and bon vivant. As a young adult staying one step ahead of the S.S., Cioma would dine in swanky restaurants and frequent trendy bars, and have plenty of romances -- all while sabotaging weapons in the munitions factory where he worked.

By the end of World War I, Albert Einstein had become the face of the new science of theoretical physics and had made some powerful enemies. One of those enemies, Nobel Prize winner Philipp Lenard, spent a career trying to discredit him.

Indeed, their mutual antagonism affected the direction of science long after 1933, when Einstein took flight to America and changed the history of two nations. The Man Who Stalked Einstein details the tense relationship between Einstein and Lenard, their ideas and actions, during the eventful period between World War I and World War II.
Was man isst, was einem schmeckt, wie es zubereitet und gemeinsam verzehrt wird, das beschäftigt Adressaten und Professionelle in der Sozialen Arbeit jeden Tag, früher wie heute. Dennoch sind fachliche Positionierungen hierzu selten. Essen und Kochen ist einerseits ein zentrales Lebens(welt)thema der Subjekte und des institutionellen Alltags. Andererseits regieren Staat, Politik und öffentliche Meinung zurzeit stark in die Ernährungsweisen zahlreicher Bevölkerungsgruppen hinein. Sozialer Arbeit werden Präventionsaufträge zur Volksgesundheit und ernährungserzieherische Aufgaben zugewiesen. Es ist von daher an der Zeit, Kochen und Essen als Thema qualifizierter Praxisentwicklung und konzeptioneller Reflexion in der Sozialen Arbeit zu eröffnen. Diese Innovation leistet das vorliegende Buch. Praxisberichte, historische Quellentexte, empirische und theoriebezogene Analysen zeigen, dass es lohnt, sich in Profession und Disziplin des Kochens und Essens anzunehmen.
