Committed Spirituality
Christian faith can lead to a spirituality that can give strength and energy for just action. Conversely, human solidarity can open us up to the contents of the Christian faith. Christian hope, in particular, opens us to a universal solidarity that does not exclude others and never serves only one's own areas without others. Ottmar Fuchs has spelled out this connection in his entire practical theology in many works and now presents here important results of his work in collected form for an English-language readership. The churches are at the service of this commitment for all people. In the acute disputes between identitarian-fundamentalist and open-universal-solidarian formations, the auth...
The Only Sacrament Left to Us
Questions of ecclesiology abound, and Karl Barth has been regarded as an unhelpful conversation partner and guide for those who care about ecclesiology and the place of the church in the academic pursuit of theology. The Only Sacrament Left to Us recovers Barth's doctrine of the threefold Word of God and shows that it is at the heart of his ecclesiological commitments, and that he offers a distinct and robust doctrine of the church worthy to be carried forward into the twenty-first-century debates about the church's place in God's economy. Thomas Christian Currie explores the central role of the threefold Word of God in Barth's theology of the church, explains its place in Barth's later doctrine of reconciliation, and seeks to engage the field of Barth studies with contemporary ecclesiological questions.

Bronchoalveolar Lavage and Blood Markers of Infection in Critically Ill Patients - a Single Center Registry Study
Abstract: Microbiological sampling is an indispensable targeted antibiotic therapy for critically ill patients. Invasive respiratory sampling by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) can be performed to obtain samples from the lower respiratory tract. It is debated as to whether blood markers of infection can predict the outcome of BAL in a medical intensive care unit (ICU). Retrospectively, all ICU patients undergoing BAL from 2009-2018 were included. A total of 468 BAL samples from 276 patients (average age 60 years, SAPS2 47, ICU-mortality 41.7%) were analyzed. At the time of BAL, 94.4% patients were mechanically ventilated, 92.9% had suspected pneumonia, 96.2% were on antibiotic therapy and 36.3% were immunocompromised. Relevant bacteria were cultured in 114/468 (24.4%) cases of BAL. Patients with relevant bacteria in the culture had a higher ICU mortality rate (45.6 vs. 40.4%, p = 0.33) and were significantly less likely to be on a steroid (36 vs. 52%, p

Civil Liability for Accidents at Sea
This book presents a study on civil liability for accidents at sea, with a focus on the interests of parties that are not contractually participating in the maritime enterprise. Shipping and the maritime offshore industry are among the most international businesses in the world, and the operation of ships and facilities at sea can involve very different interests in a wide variety of relationships. Although there is an international legal framework that covers the most frequent types of cases, questions remain regarding the interplay of international and national legislation. Addressing those questions, the first part of this study analyses the rules and the limits of international regulation applicable at sea, namely regarding compensation for pollution damage. The second part focuses on the jurisdictional rules and conflict-of-law rules that may be used to deal with cases beyond the scope of international legislation, in accordance with the law of the sea.
