Snowblind
A look at the supercharged life of American drug smuggler Zachary Swan. “An extremely rare cut of dry wit, poetry, rock-hard fact and relentless insight” (Rolling Stone). Robbert Sabbag’s Snowblind, the true story of an American smuggler whose intricate, ingenious scams made him a legendary figure in the cocaine world of the late sixties and early seventies, is a modern classic. In this “witty, intelligent, fiercely stylish, drug-induced exemplary tale” (Los Angeles Times), Sabbag masterfully traces Zachary Swan’s Roman-candle career, from his first forays into smuggling marijuana to his jaunts to Colombia to buy pure cocaine, and his ever more elaborate plans to outwit the police and customs officials. Updated by the author, this captivating portrait of a dashing antihero and enthralling look at a turbulent age is sure to reach a new generation of readers. “A flat-out ball buster. It moves like a threshing machine with a fuel tank of ether.” —Hunter S. Thompson

Barmherzigkeit und zärtliche Liebe
Das Pontifikat von Papst Franziskus hat große Umwälzungen in der katholischen Welt ausgelöst mit Rückwirkungen auf die europäische und globale Diskurslandschaft. Seine Vision einer neuen Gesellschaftsordnung hat er in seinem apostolischen Schreiben "Evangelii gaudium" zum Ausdruck gebracht. Der Band geht der Frage nach, ob und inwieweit angesichts der gegenwärtigen globalen Herausforderungen (interreligiöser Dialog, Migration, Urbanisierung, Traditionsverlust, ökologische Katastrophen, soziale und wirtschaftliche Umwälzungen, theologische Neuorientierungsprozesse) Anregungen dieses programmatischen Schreibens neue Wege für die gegenwärtigen Gesellschaften eröffnen können.
Wpływ pływania na rozwój i stan zdolności motorycznych u młodzieży gimnazjalnej
Wstęp Środowisko wodne towarzyszy człowiekowi od zawsze i dostosowanie się do niego było rzeczą nieuniknioną. Świadczą o tym rysunki z przed czterech tysięcy lat. Pozytywny wpływ pływania a także wody na organizm ludzki jest udowodniony i potwierdzony. Należy jednak podkreślić że pływanie to nie tylko rekreacja czy rehabilitacja, ale także sport który rozwija fizycznie (motoryczność) ale także psychicznie. O docenianiu zajęć w wodzie jako formy ruchu świadczy rosnąca liczba pływalni oraz częstsze wybieranie aktywności w postaci zajęć na basenie (Aqua aerobik, Aqua bike i inne). Wzrasta również liczba szkółek pływackich. Do rzadkości należą osoby które...

The Privacy Fallacy
Our privacy is besieged by tech companies. Companies can do this because our laws are built on outdated ideas that trap lawmakers, regulators, and courts into wrong assumptions about privacy, resulting in ineffective legal remedies to one of the most pressing concerns of our generation. Drawing on behavioral science, sociology, and economics, Ignacio Cofone challenges existing laws and reform proposals and dispels enduring misconceptions about data-driven interactions. This exploration offers readers a holistic view of why current laws and regulations fail to protect us against corporate digital harms, particularly those created by AI. Cofone then proposes a better response: meaningful accountability for the consequences of corporate data practices, which ultimately entails creating a new type of liability that recognizes the value of privacy.
Autism Spectrum Disorders
Autism spectrum disorders are developmental disorders. Individuals with autism spectrum disorders develop differently. These differences are usually present in social interaction, communication, and sensory processing, and become visible through a wide variety of behavioral responses that differ from individuals without autism spectrum disorders. Despite significant research efforts, the exact causes of autism spectrum disorders remain poorly understood; however, researchers have gained extensive insights into possible pathomechanisms, even at the molecular level of cells. Many diagnostic criteria have been developed, adapted, and improved. The eight chapters in this book highlight the curre...
