Swimming in the Dark
Poland, 1980. Anxious, disillusioned Ludwik Glowacki, soon to graduate university, has been sent along with the rest of his class to an agricultural camp. Here he meets Janusz - and together, they spend a dreamlike summer swimming in secluded lakes, reading forbidden books - and falling in love.
Knowledge Shaping
How can we portray the history of Renaissance knowledge production through the eyes of the students? Their university notebooks contained a variety of works, fragments of them, sentences, or simple words. To date, studies on these materials have only concentrated on a few individual works within the collections, neglecting the strategy by which texts and textual fragments were selected and the logic through which the notebooks were organized. The eight chapters that make up this volume explore students' note-taking practices behind the creation of their notebooks from three different angles. The first considers annotation activities in relation to their study area to answer the question of how university disciplines were able to influence both the content and structure of their notebooks. The volume's second area of research focuses on the student's curiosity and choices by considering them expressions of a self-learning practice not necessarily linked to a discipline of study or instructions from teaching. The last part of the volume moves away from the student's desk to consider instructions on note-taking methods that students could receive from manuals of various kinds.

Modeling Economic Growth in Contemporary Poland
Trying to explain the sources of Poland’s economic success and decouple it from simple stylized facts on economic convergence anchored in the neoclassical growth models, the chapters show how the Polish economy rapidly moved away from the communist economic system, which had ended up in an economic collapse.
Soziologische Paradigmen nach Talcott Parsons
Dieses Lehrbuch stellt sechs ausgewählte soziologische Theorierichtungen aus der Zeit nach Talcott Parsons vor: Konflikttheorie, Gesellschaftskritik, das Interpretative Paradigma, die Systemtheorie, die Theorie der Rationalen Wahl und schließlich den Strukturalismus. Dabei werden jeweils die wichtigsten Argumente, Begriffe und Überlegungen dargestellt, die diese Paradigmen charakterisieren. Der Band ergänzt die im ersten Band (Brock/Junge/Krähnke: Soziologische Theorien von Auguste Comte bis Talcott Parsons) dargestellten soziologischen Klassiker zu einer vollständigen Einführung in die soziologischen Theorien. In didaktischer Hinsicht ist der vorliegende Band wie der erste Band gestaltet: Lesezeichen, Lesetipps, Querverweise, Merksätze, Übungsaufgaben, ein Glossar, Beispiele und Hinweise auf weiterführende Literatur ermöglichen eine effektive Einarbeitung in die jeweilige Theorie.
Odd Thomas
Meet Odd Thomas, the unassuming young hero of Dean Koontz’s dazzling New York Times bestseller, a gallant sentinel at the crossroads of life and death who offers up his heart in these pages and will forever capture yours. “The dead don’t talk. I don’t know why.” But they do try to communicate, with a short-order cook in a small desert town serving as their reluctant confidant. Sometimes the silent souls who seek out Odd want justice. Occasionally their otherworldly tips help him prevent a crime. But this time it’s different. A stranger comes to Pico Mundo, accompanied by a horde of hyena-like shades who herald an imminent catastrophe. Aided by his soul mate, Stormy Llewellyn, and an unlikely community of allies that includes the King of Rock ’n’ Roll, Odd will race against time to thwart the gathering evil. His account of these shattering hours, in which past and present, fate and destiny, converge, is a testament by which to live—an unforgettable fable for our time destined to rank among Dean Koontz’s most enduring works.
