"Wir alle treffen Entscheidungen im Leben, aber letztendlich treffen unsere Entscheidungen uns"
„Wir alle treffen Entscheidungen im Leben, aber letztendlich treffen unsere Entscheidungen uns.“ So erging es den Herausgebern, nachdem sie sich dazu entschlossen hatten, Lehrveranstaltungen an der Universität Potsdam anzubieten, die sich mit dem Medium „Computerspiel“ beschäftigen sollten – und damit auf überraschend große Resonanz stießen. Das Resultat ist vorliegendes Handbuch. Es möchte Eltern, LehrerInnen und MultiplikatorInnen exemplarische Einblicke in die vielschichtigen Welten dieses Phänomens vermitteln. Bei den AutorInnen der Beiträge handelt es sich um EnthusiastInnen aus der Computerspielbranche sowie um videospielbegeisterte SozialarbeiterInnen, KulturwissenschaftlerInnen und LehrerInnen.
No Accident
It is possible to eliminate death and serious injury from Canada’s roads. In other jurisdictions, the European Union, centres in the United States, and at least one automotive company aim to achieve comparable results as early as 2020. In Canada, though, citizens must turn their thinking on its head and make road safety a national priority. Since the motor vehicle first went into mass production, the driver has taken most of the blame for its failures. In a world where each person’s safety is dependent on a system in which millions of drivers must drive perfectly over billions of hours behind the wheel, failure on a massive scale has been the result. When we neglect the central role of t...
Car Safety Wars
Car Safety Wars is a gripping history of the hundred-year struggle to improve the safety of American automobiles and save lives on the highways. Described as the “equivalent of war” by the Supreme Court, the battle involved the automobile industry, unsung and long-forgotten safety heroes, at least six US Presidents, a reluctant Congress, new auto technologies, and, most of all, the mindset of the American public: would they demand and be willing to pay for safer cars? The “Car Safety Wars” were at first won by consumers and safety advocates. The major victory was the enactment in 1966 of a ground breaking federal safety law. The safety act was pushed through Congress over the bitter ...
Outpost a Doctor on the Divide
Gweneth Wisewould had no direct descendents of her own but the Australian farming community in Central Victoria was as important to her as a family. Moving from Melbourne in the 1930s, she soon became respected and was known only as "The Doctor" for over 30 years. This book recounts her historical view of the people, their lives and illnesses, the beauty and ferocity of the local environment and great difficulties being the sole doctor practising in all weathers and harsh conditions. Her material possessions only had value to serve the purpose for which they were intended. She devoted her life to the treatment and well being of the patient."Outpost" exposes her great sense of compassion and strength of character in pursuing her own life on her terms. She lived by Ralph Waldo Emerson's dictum; the whole adventure has been so very well "worth while."

Drum Dances
Commissioned by renowned percussionist Dame Evelyn Glennie, Psathas’ Drum Dances (1993) is a standard for drum kit and piano repertoire. Each of the four movements in this work were stimulated by a certain rhythmic interaction possible between two performers. The performers gradually transition from battling for superiority to working together throughout the work as they navigate material ranging from from a loosely-written stately dance to very tight and syncopated rhythmic interaction.
