Maria Magdalenes døtre
Fundet af en menneskeknogle i en svensk affaldshåndtering med spor af et mennesketandsæt giver anledning til international eftersøgning af en formodet svensk eller dansk seriemorder med kannibalske tendenser. Den københavnske studine Christina Lunds møde med en meget aggressiv taxachauffør som forsøger at hende tvinge hende ind i hans taxa bringer hende ind i den intensive morderjagt. Christina påtager sig rollen som lokkedue. Under politikontrol bliver Christina som planlagt kidnappet i midten af København. Desværre mister politiet overvågningen og Christina forsvinder i de store svenske skove hos en religiøs sekt, hvor hun og tre andre piger holdes fanget til Påskens højtid, hvor de fire unge piger traditionelt skal ofres som Maria Magdalenes døtre. Kun en ung tjekkisk pige har tidligere overlevet opholdet hos den religiøse sekt. Pigen bliver fundet påkørt nord for Kristianstad helt nøgen med kraniebrud og hukommelsestab. Sekten begår endnu et nogle rituelle mord. Torben Jürgensen & Lena Redder Wilken 15. Juli 2010
Made to Matter
Most members of the Stolen Generations had white fathers or grandfathers. Who were these white men? This book analyses the stories of white fathers, men who were positioned as key players in the plans to assimilate Aboriginal people by 'breeding out the colour'. The plan to 'breed out the colour' ascribed enormous power to white sperm and white paternity; to 'elevate', 'uplift' and disperse Aboriginality in whiteness, to blank out, to aid cultural forgetting. The policy was a cruel failure, not least because it conflated skin colour with culture and assumed that Aboriginal women and their children would acquiesce to produce 'future whites'. It also assumed that white men would comply as ready appendages, administering 'whiteness' through marriage or white sperm. This book attempts to put textual flesh on the bodies of these white fathers, and in doing so, builds on and complicates the view of white fathers in this history, and the histories of whiteness to which they are biopolitically related.

The Deep Universe
Written by three celebrated astronomers renowned for their excellence in both research and teaching, the central theme is approached in three complementary ways: the smooth evolution of the universe from the Big Bang to the present structures of matter; as a meandering road paved by our observations of stars, galaxies, and clusters; and how these approaches have been gradually developed and intertwined in the historical process leading to modern-day cosmology.
