Kalmann
Kalmann is the self-appointed Sheriff of Raufarhöfn. Day by day, he treks the wide plains which surround the almost deserted village, hunts Arctic foxes and lays bait in the sea — to catch the gigantic Greenland sharks he turns into the Icelandic fermented delicacy, hákarl. There is nothing anyone need worry about. Kalmann has everything under control. Inside his head, however, the wheels sometimes spin backwards. One winter, after he discovers a pool of blood in the snow, the swiftly unfolding events threaten to overwhelm him. But he knows that his native wisdom and pure-hearted courage will see him through. There really is no need to worry. How can anything go wrong with Kalmann in charge? He knows everything a man needs to know about life – well almost.
The Analysis of Burned Human Remains
This unique reference provides a primary source for osteologists and the medical/legal community for the understanding of burned bone remains in forensic or archaeological contexts. It describes in detail the changes in human bone and soft tissues as a body burns at both the chemical and gross levels and provides an overview of the current procedures in burned bone study. Case studies in forensic and archaeological settings aid those interested in the analysis of burned human bodies, from death scene investigators, to biological anthropologists looking at the recent or ancient dead. - Includes the diagnostic patterning of color changes that give insight to the severity of burning, the positioning of the body, and presence (or absence) of soft tissues during the burning event - Chapters on bones and teeth give step-by-step recommendations for how to study and recognize burned hard tissues
An Awareness of What is Missing

Given the global challenges facing humanity, nothing is more dangerous than the refusal to communicate that we encounter today in different forms of religious and ideological fundamentalism. Habermas argues that in order to engage in this dialogue, two conditions must be met: religion must accept the authority of secular reason as the fallible results of the sciences and the universalistic egalitarianism in law and morality; and conversely, secular reason must not set itself up as the judge concerning truths ...

Alexander Kluge feiert seinen 90. Geburtstag und ist nach wie vor hochproduktiv: Wir sprechen mit dem vielseitigen Intellektuellen über seine vier neuen Bücher, die Gegenwärtigkeit von Erinnerung und über die Mauerdurchbrüche zur Zukunft; Die Geschichte jener Mauer, die seit 1989 bereits durchbrochen ist, wird bis heute meist vom Westen her erzählt – wir beleuchten andere Perspektiven in vier Neuerscheinungen; und Nadire Biskin berichtet in ihrem vielschichtigen Debüt "Ein Spiegel für mein Gegenüber" über die sozialen Zusammenhänge und das Erwachsenwerden einer jungen Frau zwischen Bucak in der Türkei und dem gegenwärtigen Berlin, während in einem weiteren, ebenfalls beachten...
