Flight to the Top of the World
In his day Walter Wellman (1858-1934) was one of America's most famous men. To his contemporaries, he seemed like a character from a Jules Verne novel. He led five expeditions in search of the North Pole, two by dogsled and three by dirigible airship, and in 1910 made the first attempt to cross the Atlantic Ocean by air--which the self-styled expert on aerial warfare saw as a mission of world peace. He endured hardships, cheated death on more than one occasion, and surrounded himself with a team of assistants as eccentric and audacious as he was. In addition to his daring adventures, Wellman became a nationally known political reporter and unofficial spokesman for the McKinley and Roosevelt ...
Neuro
"The brain sciences are influencing our understanding of human behavior as never before, from neuropsychiatry and neuroeconomics to neurotheology and neuroaesthetics. Many now believe that the brain is what makes us human, and it seems that neuroscientists are poised to become the new experts in the management of human conduct. Neuro describes the key developments--theoretical, technological, economic, and biopolitical--that have enabled the neurosciences to gain such traction outside the laboratory. It explores the ways neurobiological conceptions of personhood are influencing everything from child rearing to criminal justice, and are transforming the ways we "know ourselves" as human being...
Ice In His Veins
After a disastrous stint as stage manager at a Catholic college, Nicky D'Amico moves back to New York to get his life in order. The good Company's all-male production of A Midsummer Night's Dream is a little unorthodox, but he's thrilled about working with some of his old college friends. This midwinter production of Dream soon becomes a nightmare when one of the actors is found dead behind the theater. It's clear that the murderer is someone with the production–one of them! The show must go on, but with someone hiding liquor bottles all over the set, more than one diva with an untrustworthy entourage, and two cute guys vying for his affections, Nicky has his hands full. Everyone is a suspect, and Nicky must figure out who the killer is–before it's curtains for another cast member.
Perspektiven für das Pfarramt
Die Ausbildung für das Pfarramt verändert sich, weil sich die Gesellschaft und die Kirche verändern. Welche Fähigkeiten muss ein Pfarrer oder eine Pfarrerin in Zukunft haben? Achtzehn Deutschschweizer Landeskirchen legen gemeinsam ein neues Kompetenzstrukturmodell für das evangelisch-reformierte Pfarramt vor. Das Modell formuliert theologisch zwölf Standards: Orientierungspunkte, wie die Pfarrschaft, die Kirchenleitungen, die kirchlichen Behörden auf lokaler Ebene und die Zuständigen für Ausbildung und Personalentwicklung über die pfarramtlichen Kompetenzen nachdenken können. Reflektiert werden Aspekte wie Teamorientierung, Spezialisierung und 'Sperrigkeit' des Pfarrberufs. Die Diskussion stützt sich ab auf die zwölf aktuellsten pastoraltheologischen Ansätze im deutschsprachigen Raum und umfasst auch Beurteilungen aus der Aussenperspektive. Ein Vademecum bietet zusätzlich konkrete Anwendungsbeispiele und ein Hilfsmittel zur Einschätzung der eigenen Kompetenzen.

The Pretender Bride
Lost and alone after her step-father is murdered on the streets of New York, Katie takes her two young siblings and claims them as her own. Pretending to be a widow, she flees to Colorado Territory as a mail-order bride and into the arms of the handsome gunsmith, Robert Wallace. The attraction is instant, but just when things are looking up for her, the past comes calling--and Katie discovers harsh truths about her stepfather that put everything at risk. Her stepfather had secrets, and they're not done with her yet. Robert Wallace was a skeptic until he watched his friends settle happily with their mail-order brides. When his own seemingly perfect family arrives, he's thrilled. Until he discovers his new bride is surrounded by layer-upon-layer of lies. He's been tricked by a scheming woman before and he won't be taken in by another one, no matter how innocent she seems. No matter how badly he wants her. Katie is determined to keep her new family together, come hell or high water. And no one is going to get in her way. Not the man from New York who followed her to Colorado. Not her past. And not the stubborn, irresistible Scot who is her husband.

Dem Bettag eine Zukunft bereiten
Der Eidgenössische Dank-, Buss- und Bettag hat eine spannende und komplexe Geschichte. Wer ihn auf zeitgemässe Art feiern und gestalten will, steht vor grossen Herausforderungen. In 27 Beiträgen bieten Historiker und Theologinnen, Politiker und Religionswissenschaftlerinnen Standortbestimmungen aus ganz unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln, die der Praxis des Bettags neue Impulse geben – nicht zuletzt vor dem Hintergrund wachsender religiöser Vielfalt. Prominente Stimmen fassen ihre Anliegen in «Bettagsmandate» und machen deutlich, dass der Bettag nicht von gestern ist, sondern eine Zukunft hat: als Chance, in überzeugender Art tragende Fundamente eines friedlichen und solidarischen Zusammenlebens in Erinnerung zu rufen.
