Typisch Einzelkind!?
Einzelkinder sind egoistisch, zumindest aber verwöhnt und irgendwie einsam. Schließlich steckt das Einzel schon im Wort. Nur Vorurteile? Oder verbirgt sich ein Körnchen Wahrheit in den gängigen Klischees über geschwisterlose Menschen? Riccarda Gschwend wollte es wissen und schickte einen Fragebogen an Einzelkinder. Wie empfinden Einzelkinder ihre Geschwisterlosigkeit? Als Bürde oder vielmehr als Segen? Auch ein Blick in die Ergebnisse der Familienforschung durfte natürlich nicht fehlen. Was sagen Wissenschaftler zum Thema Einzelkinder? Nicht zuletzt gibt die Autorin einen tiefen und sehr persönlichen Einblick in die eigene Familiengeschichte. Denn dass ihre Tochter Einzelkind bleiben würde, war eigentlich nicht geplant. Entstanden ist ein unterhaltsames, informatives und stellenweise anrührendes Buch über eine ganz besondere Familienkonstellation: die Ein-Kind-Familie.
Osteoporosis
There are a number of therapies and treatments available for the prevention of fragility fractures in people thought to be at risk, or to prevent further fractures in those who have already had one or more fragility fractures. However, identifying who will benefit from preventative treatment is imprecise. A number of risk assessment tools are available to predict fracture incidence over a period of time, and these may be used to aid decision making. These tools are limited in that they may not include all risk factors, or may lack details of some risk factors. Tools are dependent on the accuracy of the epidemiological data used to derive them and tools validated in other populations may not apply to the UK. Two tools, FRAX and QFracture, are available for use in the UK. It is not clear whether these tools are equally accurate and whether choice of tool should depend on circumstances. This short clinical guideline aims to provide guidance on the selection and use of risk assessment tools in the care of people who may be at risk of fragility fractures in all settings in which NHS care is received.

Microcosms
Amid wars, failed revolutions and the shifting of frontiers, the bit-part players often have the best tales to tell - an astonishing, genre-blurring travelogue from Italian master Claudio Magris. In the tiny borderlands of Istria and Italy, from the forests of Monte Nevoso, to the hidden valleys of the Tyrol, to a Trieste café, Microcosms pieces together a mosaic of stories - comic, tragic, picaresque, nostalgic - from life's minor characters. Their worlds might be small, but they are far from minimalist: in them flashes the great, the meaningful, the unrepeatable significance of every existence.
Jacopo Strada and Cultural Patronage at the Imperial Court
Dirk Jacob Jansen provides an overview of the life and career of the sixteenth-century cosmopolitan courtier, architect and antiquary Jacopo Strada.
Jeremiah’s Scriptures
Jeremiah’s Scriptures focuses on the composition of the biblical book of Jeremiah and its dynamic afterlife in ancient Jewish traditions. Jeremiah is an interpretive text that grew over centuries by means of extensive redactional activities on the part of its tradents. In addition to the books within the book of Jeremiah, other books associated with Jeremiah or Baruch were also generated. All the aforementioned texts constitute what we call “Jeremiah's Scriptures.” The papers and responses collected here approach Jeremiah’s scriptures from a variety of perspectives in biblical and ancient Jewish sub-fields. One of the authors' goals is to challenge the current fragmentation of the fields of theology, biblical studies, ancient Judaism. This volume focuses on Jeremiah and his legacy.
