Chamber Music: A Research and Information Guide is a reference tool for anyone interested in chamber music. It is not a history or an encyclopedia but a guide to where to find answers to questions about chamber music. The third edition adds nearly 600 new entries to cover new research since publication of the previous edition in 2002. Most of the literature is books, articles in journals and magazines, dissertations and theses, and essays or chapters in Festschriften, treatises, and biographies. In addition to the core literature obscure citations are also included when they are the only studies in a particular field. In addition to being printed, this volume is also for the first time available online. The online environment allows for information to be updated as new research is introduced. This database of information is a "live" resource, fully searchable, and with active links. Users will have unlimited access, annual revisions will be made and a limited number of pages can be downloaded for printing.
Seldom, if ever, has there lived in the United States a foreign-born writer who has won such universal acclaim and made such an impact on the American literary scene as Thomas Mann. Not only have Mann's works, with very few exceptions, been translated but he is also one of the most eagerly collected of all modern authors.

Generationentransfer ist eine Weitergabe materieller oder immaterieller Objekte - beispielsweise Gene, Verhaltensweisen, Erfahrungen, Wissen, Kultur, Güter, Vermögen und vieles mehr -, die formalisiert, informell oder gar unbewusst ablaufen kann. Der Begriff "Generation" wird in der Genealogie, der Biologie und der Soziologie verwendet und unterschiedlich definiert. Andere Verwendungen beziehen sich meist auf diese Definitionen. Geber und Empfänger dieses Transfers können dabei sehr unterschiedlich sein: Eltern-Kinder, andere Personen innerhalb einer Familie oder einer beliebigen anderen Organisation, Lehrer-Schüler, oder auch soziale Gruppen innerhalb der Gesellschaft. Bedeutsam ist lediglich, dass Geber und Empfänger in einer Beziehung als Vorgänger-Nachfolger zueinanderstehen. In diesem Band werden insgesamt 15 Beiträge zum Generationentransfer mit verschiedensten theologischen, kultur-, sozial- und informationswissenschaftlichen, ökologischen sowie geographischen Bezügen, oft auch interdisziplinär, unter dem Aspekt der Kulturethologie zusammengeführt und diskutiert.
