Bloom
A beautifully written, incredibly original and wickedly funny novel for readers of 10 and older - BLOOM is for everyone who has ever felt like they didn't fit in, and for anyone who has ever wanted a little more colour and wildness in their lives... Sorrel Fallowfield is growing up - in a REALLY surprising way... Sorrel Fallowfield is so good at being good that teachers come to her when they need help remembering the school rules - and there are LOTS. Luckily, Sorrel doesn't have any trouble following them, until the day she discovers a faded packet of Surprising Seeds buried under a tree in her backyard.

And all that's before flowers start growing out of her head...
Kognitive Strategie der Systemregulierung
Systemrisiken sind in Zeiten des digitalen Umbruchs eine so prasente Bedrohung auf Finanzmarkten wie nie. Einem wachsenden Einfluss digitaler Intermediare auf dem Finanzmarkt (wie Plattformunternehmen und FinTechs) sowie digitalen Geschaftsmodellen wohnen neue Herausforderungen und systemische Risikopotenziale inne, die herkommliche Beschreibungen von Systemrisiken nicht adaquat abbilden. Sie erfordern ein neues Grundlagenverstandnis fur Systemrisiken, das sich von Erfahrungswerten vergangener Krisen weitgehend loslost. Fur den regulatorischen Umgang mit ihnen kann nur eine kognitive Strategie erfolgversprechend sein, die sich der stetigen Aufarbeitung marktimmanenter Komplexitaten verschreibt und der dynamischen Entwicklungsoffenheit der Finanzmarkte anpasst. Die Digitalisierung bietet hierbei selbst neue Chancen, reflexive Aufsichtsmechanismen zu optimieren.
The European Monetary Union
This book provides a commentary on the law of the EU related to the Monetary Union. It contains a comprehensive analysis of all provisions of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) and the European Central Bank (ECB). In addition, the book also analyses all provisions of the Treaties themselves which regulate the ESCB and the ECB. This analysis is supplemented by commentaries on other Protocols which contain relevant rules for the Monetary Union. In essence, all relevant statutory rules governing the euro and its key monetary authority, the European Central Bank, are unfolded and explained in one volume. This gives the book a unique position in the legal literature on the law of the EU. With contributions by renowned academics and practitioners, this book is an expanded and updated translation of the 2013 German commentary, EWU Kommentar zu Europäischen Währungsunion (Mohr Siebeck) and is an invaluable resource for practitioners and academics alike who are looking for a provision-by-provision commentary on the laws governing the European Monetary Union.

Materiality of Writing in Early Mesopotamia
This volume presents recent research on the relationship between the material format of text-bearing artefacts, the texts they carry, and their genre. The essays cover a vast period, from the counting stones of the late 4th millennium BCE to the time of the Great Hittite Kingdom in the 2nd millennium BCE. The breadth of substantive focus allows new insights of relevance to scholars in both Ancient Middle Eastern studies and the humanities.
