On Fairness, Justice, and VAR
This book analyzes the 2018 and 2019 men's and women's World Cups to understand how the use of Video Assistant Referees (VAR) affected each tournament. Unlike goal technology, where the decision is entirely left to the machine's algorithm, the VAR still has a human component, making it prone to errors and controversies. Building on the theories of justice, the book quantitatively reviews event-level data while using a historical perspective to depict a novel approach to the effects of VAR in major soccer tournaments. The six chapters examine the use of VAR, discuss when it was not used (but maybe should have been used), and explore how the World Cup evolved with the new technology. Combining the VAR events of 2018 and 2019 with comparable situations from past World Cups guides the reader into debating the meaning of justice and the potential of ever achieving fairness in soccer.

European Garden Flora
The European Garden Flora is the definitive manual for the accurate identification of cultivated ornamental plants. It is designed to meet the highest scientific standards but the vocabulary is kept as uncomplicated as possible so that it is fully accessible to the informed gardener and landscape architect as well as to the professional botanists. Although based upon Europe the series will be an extremely useful reference on plants in cultivation throughout the world. Families, genera and species are described, keys are provided and guidance is given on the cultivation of each genus. Volume I is the first in a series of six; it contains accounts of the ferns and their allies, the conifers and 16 families of monocotyledons, including the Liliaceae, Amaryllidaceae and Iridaceae, to which most of the popular bulbous garden plants belong.

Paleogene Shallow Benthos of the Tethys, 1
Seznam literature o paleogenskih velikih foraminiferah, ki ga je v glavnem sestavil Johannes S. Pignatti, je zelo izčrpen seznam referenc o stratigrafiji, paleoekologiji, morfologiji in taksonomiji paleogenskih velikih foraminifer. Tovrstna literatura seže prav na začetek geološke znanosti in je mnogokrat raztresena v težko dostopnih in manj znanih publikacijah. Sedaj je ta velika količina podatkov, ki bi sicer ostali znani samo redkim specialistom, postala dostopna širši javnosti. Predstavlja nepogrešljivo orodje za vsakogar, ki se ukvarja s katerimkoli področjem geologije in paleontologije paleogena. Kamnine s paleogenskimi velikimi foraminiferami tvorijo marsikje pomembne kolektorje za nafto ali pa so v njih nahajališča drugih gospodarsko pomembnih surovin. Pričujoči seznam bo tako dobrodošel ne le akademskim raziskovalcem, temveč tudi tistim, ki se v praksi ukvarjajo z izkoriščanjem naravnih bogastev.
