How it All Began
The personal testimony of Michael 'Bommi' Baumann, a man who in the late 1960s and early 1970s was a member of the June 2nd Movement, one of the most spectacular urban guerrilla organisations in West Berlin. The original German edition was seized by police upon publication in 1975. The resulting trial and publicity raised an international outcry and the book ended up being republished in German and translated into 6 languages. A timely republication in an age when public protest against corporate greed and free trade agreements are increasing in frequency and hostility.
Extension of Life
As a mortician, Michael Baumann, a Jew pretending to be Aryan, devised a highly unorthodox surgical procedure that converted Jews to Aryans. This helped more than 400 Jews escape from Vienna to Switzerland. With five other Jews pretending to be Aryan, an elaborate escape and spy network was created. While most of the operations were successful there were some failures. Some died so that others could live. Carefully researched, the story blends fiction with factual history incorporating actual events and people. The novel creates a realistic portrayal of Jewish life and death before and during the Nazi takeover of Austria.

Steps to Reconciliation
Both Reformed and Mennonite churches trace their beginnings back to Zurich, where Huldrych Zwingli and his friends Konrad Grebel and Felix Manz together discovered the liberating power of the Gospel that would renew both church and society. However, they quickly developed conflicting ideas about how to carry out this renewal. Their paths separated into dispute. Zurich became the "city of Zwingli" and banished the names of Felix Manz and Konrad Grebel from its memory. Still, the Anabaptist movement survived and never forgot its founding fathers. On June 26, 2004, Felix Manz returned to Zurich: a commemorative plaque on the banks of the Limmat reminds us of his execution during the time of the...
The Other Alliance
Using previously classified documents and original interviews, The Other Alliance examines the channels of cooperation between American and West German student movements throughout the 1960s and early 1970s, and the reactions these relationships provoked from the U.S. government. Revising the standard narratives of American and West German social mobilization, Martin Klimke demonstrates the strong transnational connections between New Left groups on both sides of the Atlantic. Klimke shows that the cold war partnership of the American and German governments was mirrored by a coalition of rebelling counterelites, whose common political origins and opposition to the Vietnam War played a vital ...
Molecular Radio-Oncology
This book concisely reviews our current understanding of hypoxia, molecular targeting, DNA repair, cancer stem cells, and tumor pathophysiology, while also discussing novel strategies for putting these findings into practice in daily clinical routine. Radiotherapy is an important part of modern multimodal cancer treatment, and the past several years have witnessed not only substantial improvements in radiation techniques and the use of new beam qualities, but also major strides in our understanding of molecular tumor biology and tumor radiation response. Against this backdrop, the book highlights recent efforts to identify reasonable and clinically applicable biomarkers using broad-spectrum ...
Adjust Fire
Ride with a U.S. Army battalion from First Cavalry Division in the toughest years of the Iraq War and discover what the media didn't share and could never tell you..."My objective since retirement has been to educate Americans about the war in Iraq and to tell them the 'inside story' of the Army, its soldiers, and what we have been doing since 2003 in Iraq. The news media: print, television, and radio do a very poor job of articulating what America's military is doing in Iraq. I can do better." The early years of the Iraq War looked grim. This book tells the "inside the Army story." Readers who seek to know how the Army conducted its business leading to success in Iraq will see, in graphic terms, how the work was accomplished with the successes and failures. The reader gets the unique opportunity to literally follow an Army battalion commander working in a key neighborhood of Baghdad called Al Rashid. The book walks the streets of Baghdad, rides on patrols down the IED laden "Airport Road" and let's you sit in on the councils of warriors, and walk among the people of Iraq.
