Pietismus und Neuzeit Band 48/49 – 2022/2023
Der neue kapitale Doppelband 48/49, reichlich 430 Seiten stark, bietet zunächst in zwei Paketen Tagungsbeiträge: die von einer Tagung in Wolfenbüttel im April 2023, veranstaltet von dem am Interdisziplinären Zentrum für Pietismusforschung in Halle installierten Arbeitskreis Gender & Pietismus, zum Thema Intersektionalität von Geschlecht und Alter im Pietismus, und dann die von einer an der Forschungsbibliothek in Gotha im Januar 2024 von Vera Faßhauer und Martin Mulsow ausgerichteten Tagung mit dem Titel Ein transnationales Leben. Bausteine zur Biographie von Johann Konrad Dippel (1673–1734). Beide Tagungen waren international und interdisziplinär besetzt. Drei weitere Aufsätze: zu den Herrnhutern in Kopenhagen, zu der im Umkreis Herrnhuts gelegenen, religiös devianten sorbischen Kirchgemeinde Bukecy / Hochkirch im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert und schließlich zu Cecilia Fryxell, einer pietistischen Pädagogin und Wegbereiterin der Mädchenbildung in Schweden, kommen hinzu. Rezensionen folgen, dann die Bibliographie und die Register, die den Band in gewohnter Weise aufschließen.
Dragons in the Surf
China and Iran form an unholy alliance to dominate the world. This work of fiction reads like your everyday newspaper. See the future unfold before your eyes, and be afraid, very afraid as you watch your jobs and industries fall under China's control before the missiles start coming at you......believe it. The next World War has already started and most of you haven't even noticed.
International Norms and Local Politics in Myanmar
Nishikawa explores how international norms have been adopted in the local context in Myanmar to project a certain international image, while in fact the authorities are exploiting these norms to protect their own interests. In the liberal international world order promoted since the end of the Cold War, democracy, rule of law and human rights have become key components in state and peace-building around the world. Many donor governments and international organisations have promoted them in their aid and assistance. However, the promotion of these international norms is based on a flawed understanding of sovereignty and the world. For this reason, the enforcement of these international norms in Myanmar not only fails to protect vulnerable people but also, in some instances, exacerbates the situation, thereby generating critical insecurity to the most vulnerable people. A vital resource for scholars of Myanmar’s politics, as well as a valuable case study for International Relations scholars more broadly.
Alcohol in America
This book is a definitive reference work on American drinking, presenting results that are not based on the skewed and captive samples found in hospital treatment settings, but rather on the general population. This means that the study addresses not only problem drinkers and drinking problems but also documents in rich detail the much more common drinking patterns of the vast majority of Americans. Special attention is given, for the first time in such surveys, to drinking patterns among Blacks and Hispanics.
Russia and China
This book depicts the sophisticated relationship between Russia and China as a pragmatic one, a political “marriage of convenience”. Yet at the same time the relationship is stable, and will remain so. After all, bilateral relations are usually based on pragmatic interests and the pursuit of these interests is the very essence of foreign policy. And, as often happens in life, the most long-lasting marriages are those based on convenience. The highly complex, complicated, ambiguous and yet, indeed, successful relationship between Russia and China throughout the past 25 years is difficult to grasp theoretically. Russian and Chinese elites are hard-core realists in their foreign policies, a...
Cardiovascular System and Physical Exercise
This book focuses on adaptation and control of the cardiovascular system, along with myocardial and vascular reactions that provide the optimal blood flow under physical activity. New information on the main hemodynamic values measured with the help of updated methods used in the research of heart and great vessels is de-scribed, and a number of new parameters, such as arterial impedance, are introduced. The information presented in this book is of value to research cardiologists, experts in sports medicine and physiology as well as for physicians and physiologists connected with the use of muscular activity.
Pituitary Apoplexy
Pituitary apoplexy is a rare and life-threatening complication that occurs in 0.6–10.5% of all patients with pituitary adenomas. Unfortunately, pituitary apoplexy is often misdiagnosed before surgery. Furthermore, in spite of all the advances in imaging techniques and therapeutic methods, its optimal management is still controversial owing to the limited individual experience and the very variable clinical course of the condition. This book provides an in-depth review of knowledge of the management of pituitary apoplexy, with an emphasis on clinical and neuroradiological findings and treatment modalities, medical and surgical. In addition, it supplies clinicians and investigators with detailed information on current evidence and considers future areas of investigation and innovative therapeutic philosophies. Both the editors and the authors are leading international authorities in the field.
