Marodierende Banden beherrschen das Land, und auf dem freien Markt sind Waren nur im Tausch gegen Gefallen zu haben. Um an Medikamente zu kommen, lässt sich die herumreisende Laylay auf ein Geschäft ein: Weil sie als Einzige immun gegen das Virus ist, soll sie den Marktbewohner Zeeto in der Todeszone aufspüren. Als sie ihn findet, ist er bereits infiziert. Zudem hat er etwas in einer geheimen Bunker-Anlage gefunden: ein Baby.Und obwohl das Virus Laylay nichts anhaben kann, beginnt sie sich zu verändern ... Eine postapokalyptische Utopie auf den Ruinen eines zerstörten Deutschlands. Fesselnde Action mit einer Prise Romantik: Judith und Christian Vogt haben mit »Wasteland« eine post-apokalyptische Welt erschaffen, die nicht nur Fans von Dystopien begeistern wird. Die Zukunft gehört den Heldinnen!

Antisemitism in the North
Is research on antisemitism even necessary in countries with a relatively small Jewish population? Absolutely, as this volume shows. Compared to other countries, research on antisemitism in the Nordic countries (Denmark, the Faroe Islands, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden) is marginalized at an institutional and staffing level, especially as far as antisemitism beyond German fascism, the Second World War, and the Holocaust is concerned. Furthermore, compared to scholarship on other prejudices and minority groups, issues concerning Jews and anti-Jewish stereotypes remain relatively underresearched in Scandinavia – even though antisemitic stereotypes have been present and flourishing in the North ever since the arrival of Christianity, and long before the arrival of the first Jewish communities. This volume aims to help bring the study of antisemitism to the fore, from the medieval period to the present day. Contributors from all the Nordic countries describe the status of as well as the challenges and desiderata for the study of antisemitism in their respective countries.

Creating Beauty to Cure the Soul
Why do physicians who've taken the Hippocratic Oath willingly cut into seemingly healthy patients? How do you measure the success of surgery aimed at making someone happier by altering his or her body? Sander L. Gilman explores such questions in Creating Beauty to Cure the Soul, a cultural history of the connections between beauty of body and happiness of mind. Following these themes through an impressive range of historical moments and players, Gilman traces how aesthetic alterations of the body have been used to "cure" dissatisfied states of mind. In his exploration of the striking parallels between the development of cosmetic surgery and the field of psychiatry, Gilman entertains an array...

Questing through the Riordanverse
Questing through the Riordanverse: Studying Religion with the Works of Rick Riordan examines the works of Rick Riordan and explores how these works relate to Religion and Theology. Despite the success and popularity of the works, scholars have not given the Riordanverse as much attention as other Young Adult and Middle Grade fantasy books published during the first part of the Twenty-First Century. This volume begins to address that vacuum, drawing from a number of fields, including Psychology, Media Studies, Queer Theory, and African American Studies, to offer an interdisciplinary interpretation of Riordan’s works and their impact on Religion and Theology. Contributors represent a diverse background, including perspectives from young scholars and students who grew up with the series to senior scholars considering where the series fits in the tradition of fantasy, religion, and literature.
