Presents 18 pieces by anthropologist Steiner (1909-52). They include deaccessions of labor and economics; a section from his dissertation on slavery; unpublished lectures on Aristotle, Simmel, and kinship; a selection of aphorisms; and extracts from his poetic cycle Conquests. In the introduction, Alder (German, King's College, London) and Fardon (West African anthropology, School of Oriental and African studies, London) relate his work to current concerns. Apparently only two volumes are planned. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
"Seabright, located atop towering sandstone cliffs and bordered by the Santa Cruz Small Craft harbor and San Lorenzo Point, overlooks the famous Santa Cruz Boardwalk and a state beach where locals and lifeguards have performed many valiant acts of ocean rescue. Originally a Victorian-era campground, the neighborhood features special amenities, including a natural history museum, thanks to a long tradition of community activism. The creation of the Santa Cruz harbor in the 1960s completed Seabright's transition from a summer resort to a year-round neighborhood. The beach doubled in size due to the littoral drift of sand blocked by the harbor seawall, protecting the vulnerable cliffs from the assault of winter waves." -- From cover.

Der erfolgreiche Rechtsanwalt Friedmar Haydak wird tot aufgefunden - erfroren im spätsommerlichen Tübingen und auf demütigende Weise zur Schau gestellt. Bald wird deutlich, dass Haydak kein angenehmer Zeitgenosse war. Gnadenlos trieb er seine Prozessgegner in den Ruin. Seine Ehefrau behauptet, er habe sie misshandelt. Ein heikler Fall für die Tübinger Kripo, bei dem Kommissar Brander und seine Kollegen auf eine Mauer aus Scham, Angst und Lügen stoßen. In seinem 2. Fall schaut Kommissar Brander tief in die Abgründe der menschlichen Seele.
