Heroism in the Forest
This book shatters the widely-held belief that the Jews of Europe in WWII died "like sheep to the slaughter." Through riveting stories, with the help of first-hand accounts, Heroism in the Forest brings to life the world of the large and widespread Jewish resistance movement in Belarus. Barmatz's book is a must for anyone who wants to learn more about the armed resistance against the Nazis in Eastern Europe, as it is for anyone who thinks he already knows.

My Brother's Keeper
2017 Christian Book Award Finalist Thirty captivating profiles of Christians who risked everything to rescue their Jewish neighbors from Nazi terror during the Holocaust. My Brother's Keeper unfolds powerful stories of Christians from across denominations who gave everything they had to save the Jewish people from the evils of the Holocaust. This unlikely group of believers, later honored by the nation of Israel as "The Righteous Among the Nations," includes ordinary teenage girls, pastors, priests, a German army officer, a former Italian fascist, an international spy, and even a princess. In one gripping profile after another, these extraordinary historical accounts offer stories of steadfast believers who together helped thousands of Jewish individuals and families to safety. Many of these everyday heroes perished alongside the very people they were trying to protect. There is no doubt that all of their stories showcase the best of humanity -- even in the face of unthinkable evil.
Der Wald war ein letzter Ausweg
Für die zehnjährige Zinaida Krasner war die unbekannte Frau ihre letzte Hoffnung. Als sie zaghaft an die Tür von Varvara Kosokovskajas bescheidener Hütte klopfte, hoffte sie nur auf ein wenig zu essen. Die unbekannte Frau bat sie herein und befragte sie nach ihrem Leben im Ghetto von Berezino. Überwältigt von dem Elend nahm sie das kleine Mädchen zu sich. Sie wusste, dass sie damit ihr eigenes Leben und das ihres Mannes riskierte. Dieser schüttelte nur den Kopf und erwiderte: »Was solls. Du hast sie ja schon aufgenommen.« In den darauffolgenden Jahren mussten sie täglich um ihr Leben zittern. Alle überlebten wie durch ein Wunder. Familie Kosokovski war nicht die einzige, die eine...

Purinergic Signalling and the Nervous System
In the first 20 years that followed the purinergic signalling hypothesis in 1972, most scientists were sceptical about its validity, largely because ATP was so well established as an intracellular molecule involved in cell biochemistry and it seemed unlikely that such a ubiquitous molecule would act as an extracellular signalling molecule. However, after the receptors for ATP and adenosine were cloned and characterized in the early 1990s and ATP was established as a synaptic transmitter in the brain and sympathetic ganglia, the tide turned. More recently it has become clear that ATP is involved in long-term (trophic) signalling in cell proliferation, differentiation and death, in development...
