Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9780525510307,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":13.449999999999999289457264239899814128875732421875,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":4889351,"merchants":["dodax","orell-fuessli"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"between-the-world-and-me-3","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/between-the-world-and-me-3\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

NOW A STARZ ORIGINAL SERIES Unrivaled storytelling. Unforgettable characters. Rich historical detail. These are the hallmarks of Diana Gabaldon's work. Her New York Times bestselling Outlander novels have earned the praise of critics and captured the hearts of millions of fans. Here is the story that started it all, introducing two remarkable characters, Claire Beauchamp Randall and Jamie Fraser, in a spellbinding novel of passion and history that combines exhilarating adventure with a love story for the ages. One of the top ten best-loved novels in America, as seen on PBS's The Great American Read! Scottish Highlands, 1945. Claire Randall, a former British combat nurse, is just back from the war and reunited with her husband on a second honeymoon when she walks through a standing stone in one of the ancient circles that dot the British Isles. Suddenly she is a Sassenach-an \"outlander\"-in a Scotland torn by war and raiding clans in the year of Our Lord . . . 1743. Claire is catapulted into the intrigues of a world that threatens her life, and may shatter her heart. Marooned amid danger, passion, and violence, Claire learns her only chance of safety lies in Jamie Fraser, a gallant young Scots warrior. What begins in compulsion becomes urgent need, and Claire finds herself torn between two very different men, in two irreconcilable lives. Praise for Diana Gabaldon's Outlander novels \"Marvelous and fantastic adventures, romance, sex . . . perfect escape reading.\"-San Francisco Chronicle, on Outlander \"History comes deliciously alive on the page.\"-New York Daily News, on Outlander \"Gabaldon is a born storyteller. . . .

Possible injury mechanisms and risk factors are presented based on an analysis involving recent scientific findings. A variety of sports are included to allow the reader to better generalize the results as well as to apply appropriate procedures to specific sports. The authors have emphasized basic scientific findings to help the reader gain a broad knowledge of sports injuries. The potential audience includes medical doctors, physical therapists, athletic trainers, coaches and interested parents. This book is expected to play a prominent role in the construction of training programs for both healthy and injured players. The focus on junior athletes will aid in their education, injury prevention and increased performance. It will also benefit instructors at the junior and senior high school levels. The book is composed of seven parts. In the beginning part, current situations and the general characteristics of sports-related injuries are outlined on the basis of an investigation utilizing statistical data involving a large number of populations. In the following parts, detailed information on the injuries in terms of the types of sports activities, body sites, symptoms and the relationships among these factors are discussed. Part 2, for example, deals with topics on concussion and severe head\u2013neck injuries which occur frequently in rugby and judo. In Parts 3 and 4, as one of the major sports-related injuries, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are discussed. Beginning with the underlying mechanisms as assessed by using the latest measuring techniques, characteristic features of their occurrence are described. Further, Part 4 deals with topics on post-operative (ACL reconstruction) aspects of ACL injuries, especially those related to muscle functions and tendon regeneration in the hamstring muscles. Part 5 deals with muscle strain and focuses particularly on those occurring in the hamstring muscles, as this muscle group is known, as one of the most frequent sites of muscle strain. In Part 6, disorders related to the ankle and foot are introduced. Finally, Part 7 provides information on lower back disorders. Included are detailed mechanisms of their incidence, epidemiology and implications for their prevention.","merchants_number":1,"ean":9784431553175,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":111.349999999999994315658113919198513031005859375,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":5011028,"merchants":["dodax"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"sports-injuries-and-prevention","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/sports-injuries-and-prevention\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

Mankind is reengineering the planet, investing up to ten trillion dollars per year in transportation, energy, and communications infrastructure linking the world's burgeoning megacities together. This has profound consequences for geopolitics, economics, demographics, the environment, and social identity. Connectivity, not geography, is our destiny. In Connectography, visionary strategist Parag Khanna travels from Ukraine to Iran, Mongolia to North Korea, Pakistan to Nigeria, and across the Arctic Circle and the South China Sea to explain the rapid and unprecedented changes affecting every part of the planet. He shows how militaries are deployed to protect supply chains as much as borders, and how nations are less at war over territory than engaged in tugs-of-war over pipelines, railways, shipping lanes, and Internet cables. The new arms race is to connect to the most markets-a race China is now winning, having launched a wave of infrastructure investments to unite Eurasia around its new Silk Roads. The United States can only regain ground by fusing with its neighbors into a super-continental North American Union of shared resources and prosperity. Connectography offers a unique and hopeful vision for the future. Khanna argues that new energy discoveries and technologies have eliminated the need for resource wars, ambitious transport corridors and power grids are unscrambling Africa's fraught colonial borders, even the Arab world is evolving a more peaceful map as it builds resource and trade routes across its war-torn landscape. At the same time, thriving hubs such as Singapore and Dubai are injecting dynamism into young and heavily populated regions, cyber-communities empower commerce across vast distances, and the world's ballooning financial assets are being wisely invested into building an inclusive global society. Beneath the chaos of a world that appears to be falling apart is a new foundation of connectivity pulling it together.Praise for Connectography\"Incredible . . . With the world rapidly changing and urbanizing, [Khanna's] proposals might be the best way to confront a radically different future.\"-The Washington Post\"Clear and coherent . . . a well-researched account of how companies are weaving ever more complicated supply chains that pull the world together even as they squeeze out inefficiencies. . . . [He] has succeeded in demonstrating that the forces of globalization are winning.\"-Adrian Woolridge, The Wall Street Journal \"Bold . . . With an eye for vivid details, Khanna has . . . produced an engaging geopolitical travelogue.\"-Foreign Affairs\"For those who fear that the world is becoming too inward-looking, Connectography is a refreshing, optimistic vision.\"-The Economist\"Connectivity has become a basic human right, and gives everyone on the planet the opportunity to provide for their family and contribute to our shared future.

Time Out New York ? Publishers Weekly ? BookPage Finalist for the PEN Center USA Literary Award in Creative Nonfiction and the Books for a Better Life Award in Inspirational MemoirAt the age of thirty-six, on the verge of completing a decade's worth of training as a neurosurgeon, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, and the next he was a patient struggling to live. And just like that, the future he and his wife had imagined evaporated. When Breath Becomes Air chronicles Kalanithi's transformation from a na\u00efve medical student \"possessed,\" as he wrote, \"by the question of what, given that all organisms die, makes a virtuous and meaningful life\" into a neurosurgeon at Stanford working in the brain, the most critical place for human identity, and finally into a patient and new father confronting his own mortality. What makes life worth living in the face of death? What do you do when the future, no longer a ladder toward your goals in life, flattens out into a perpetual present? What does it mean to have a child, to nurture a new life as another fades away? These are some of the questions Kalanithi wrestles with in this profoundly moving, exquisitely observed memoir. Paul Kalanithi died in March 2015, while working on this book, yet his words live on as a guide and a gift to us all. \"I began to realize that coming face to face with my own mortality, in a sense, had changed nothing and everything,\" he wrote. \"Seven words from Samuel Beckett began to repeat in my head: 'I can't go on. I'll go on.'\" When Breath Becomes Air is an unforgettable, life-affirming reflection on the challenge of facing death and on the relationship between doctor and patient, from a brilliant writer who became both.","merchants_number":1,"ean":9780812988406,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":32.9500000000000028421709430404007434844970703125,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":5502539,"merchants":["dodax"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"when-breath-becomes-air-2","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/when-breath-becomes-air-2\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

Charlie Munger, Vice-Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Corporation ?Thorndike explores the importance of thoughtful capital allocation through the stories of eight successful CEOs. A good read for any business leader but especially those willing to chart their own course.\" ? Michael Dell, chairman of the board of directors and chief executive officer of Dell What makes a successful CEO? Most people call to mind a familiar definition: ?a seasoned manager with deep industry expertise.\" Others might point to the qualities of today's so-called celebrity CEOs?charisma, virtuoso communication skills, and a confident management style. But what really matters when you run an organization? What is the hallmark of exceptional CEO performance? Quite simply, it is the returns for the shareholders of that company over the long term. In this refreshing, counterintuitive book, author Will Thorndike brings to bear the analytical wisdom of a successful career in investing, closely evaluating the performance of companies and their leaders. You will meet eight individualistic CEOs whose firms' average returns outperformed the S&P 500 by a factor of twenty?in other words, an investment of $10,000 with each of these CEOs, on average, would have been worth over $1.5 million twenty-five years later. You may not know all their names, but you will recognize their companies: General Cinema, Ralston Purina, The Washington Post Company, Berkshire Hathaway, General Dynamics, Capital Cities Broadcasting, TCI, and Teledyne. In The Outsiders, you'll learn the traits and methods?striking for their consistency and relentless rationality?that helped these unique leaders achieve such exceptional performance. Humble, unassuming, and often frugal, these ?outsiders\" shunned Wall Street and the press, and shied away from the hottest new management trends. Instead, they shared specific traits that put them and the companies they led on winning trajectories: a laser-sharp focus on per share value as opposed to earnings or sales growth; an exceptional talent for allocating capital and human resources; and the belief that cash flow, not reported earnings, determines a company's long-term value. Drawing on years of research and experience, Thorndike tells eye-opening stories, extracting lessons and revealing a compelling alternative model for anyone interested in leading a company or investing in one?and reaping extraordinary returns.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9781422162675,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":38.89999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":27291482,"ID":5050294,"merchants":["weltbild","orell-fuessli"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"the-outsiders-7","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/the-outsiders-7\/","low_price_merchant_name":"Weltbild"}

For instance, if the question arises to what extent antibodies can be claimed and how enablement, novelty and inventive step of such claims are routinely assessed by the EPO, separate specialized chapters of the book can be consulted. In its analysis of the jurisprudence, the new edition comprises a presentation of the changes and developments relevant to inventions in the area of stem cells, plants, diagnostic assays and surgical methods. The specific changes in the options for filing divisional applications and the recent procedural restrictions concerning the filing of claim requests, documents and experimental evidence are also addressed. Based on the comparative evaluation with US and Japanese law and practice, the book can be used as a guide for preparing European patent applications that can be sustained in these other jurisdictions. Furthermore, the new edition reports the significant changes in US and Japanese patent law and jurisprudence. For example, in the US a post-grant review system has been introduced, which is similar to the EPO's opposition proceedings. Japan has reintroduced an opposition system. As a consequence of the Myriad cases, compounds of nature can no longer be patented in the US, unless the claims relate to structural or functional variants thereof. A similar hurdle has been established in the US with respect to inventions related to diagnostics. The book is not only useful for advanced practioners, but also for beginners as an introduction and orientation to the field of biotechnology patents in their international context.

In post-Reconstruction America, after so much controversy about slavery, social and political reformers climbed on the platform to agitate on behalf of the Feminist movement in an \"air [that] was thick with theory and controversy about women\" (Habegger 9). When Henry James outlined his general idea for \"The Bostonians\" (1886) in his notebook-entry of 1883, he referred to this new ideology, which he perceived as being responsible for the perversion of the confused and uprooted young American society: I wished to write a very American tale, a tale very characteristic of our social conditions, and I asked myself what was the most salient and peculiar point in our social life. The answer was: the situation of women, the decline of the sentiment of sex, the agitation on their behalf. The undoing of the differences between man and woman and the blurring of the boundaries between the feminine and the masculine and, in particular, the subordination of the masculine hegemony by \"the stirrings of feminism in late nineteenth-century Boston\" (Lansdown x) might be the root, or at least a symptom of the problem, which was upsetting both public and domestic affairs. The novel is a drama between opposing dogmas: progressive Feminism versus conservative Chauvinism, ultimately, between the forces of progress and reaction. The analysis of the ideological conflict between these two extremes is \"dramatically focused in a conflict among characters who, James said, were evolved from his 'moral consciousness'\" (McMurray 339). The notebook-entry reveals that the novel represents James's response to a contemporary phenomenon: it seeks to investigate the situatedness of individuals in a historical context. James's main purpose was to trace the effects of a confused system of morals in the relations between men and women and he chose to exemplify that idea by portraying a group of people in whom the essence of love had become distorted or vulgarized. The conservative James assumed that the epitome of the American problem lied in the decline of what was generally considered traditional ideals surrounding gender, which he evaluated as a potential threat to the equilibrium of forces that had previously regulated society.","merchants_number":1,"ean":9783656930150,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":17.39999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":70255345,"ID":4112153,"merchants":["euniverse"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"nineteenth-century-morality-and-the-decline-in-the-sentiment-of-sex-henry-jamess-the-bostonians-and-charlotte-brontes-jane-eyre","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/nineteenth-century-morality-and-the-decline-in-the-sentiment-of-sex-henry-jamess-the-bostonians-and-charlotte-brontes-jane-eyre\/","low_price_merchant_name":"eUniverse"}

They join in a single shared pursuit: watching in horror as their youngest generations squander money in ways so staggering that Western show-offs look like pikers by comparison Mr. Kwan has good aim with his fashion world- and ego-skewering shivs. And regardless of how reality-based these characters may be, he has his style references down cold [Keeps] readers surprised and inquisitive Snarky Wicked Funny. Janet Maslin, The New York Times \u00a0 As the real China rich dig their nails into the world of the wealthy and wasteful, Kwan sharpens his with another acerbic yet affectionate examination of Asian uber-elite social mores, still largely invisible in Western popular culture The novel is filled with jaw-dropping accounts of opulence and showdowns worthy of an episode of \"Gossip Girl.\" China Rich Girlfriend is a crazy parade through the lives of the aspirational elite. It's also a rich portrait of Asia's real obsession with consumerism and its economic rise, one whose trajectory, like Kwan's, is not yet complete. Nicole Lee, Los Angeles Times \u00a0 In this year s best beach reading, Jane Austen meets Singapore There s no timely cocktail I d rather recommend than China Rich Girlfriend As frothy as the egg whites on the sort of cocktail you should drink while reading Kwan s books. But if you need to assuage your guilt about summer reading with a little intellectual patina, Kwan has you covered too, His peek into this rarified world is spiked with tart observations about old and new money, the nuances of racism and the way they all interact A cheeky reminder that those who think they can t make a romance or a comedy of manners work in an entirely non-white setting are not just lying or kidding themselves, but wasting the almost gluttonous opportunities available to storytellers who stretch beyond convention Fizzy, highly entertaining. Alyssa Rosenberg, The Washington Post The high jinks of China s young and reckless 0.0001 percent keep you turning the page [A] black comedy What I enjoyed most while reading\u00a0China Rich Girlfriend\u00a0were the moments of nihilistic glee at the self-absorption of the Chinese demimonde, the\u00a0American Pyscho-like obsession with designer brands and desirable addresses. Kwan speaks of this culture with the authoritative tone of an insider with anthropological analysis detailing the habits of various subspecies of crazy rich Asians. Arthur Chu,\u00a0The New York Times Book Review\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\"Take a Jane Austen novel, combine it with Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous and set it in the glittering capitals of Shanghai, Hong Kong and Singapore.

Delectable wretched excess. New York Daily News \u00a0 Those\u00a0Crazy Rich Asians\u00a0are back as a mix of old and new characters in Kwan's new novel,\u00a0China Rich Girlfriend... The book brings the foibles of the wealthy into a new setting: China. It reflects the ascendance of a new elite the product of the booming economy of mainland China. This fresh crop of billionaires form a new strata of Asia's one percent, what Kwan likes to call the \"China Rich.\" Kwan's characters are powerful and attractive, living in the lap of luxury. All Things Considered, NPR weekend \u00a0 \"The summer's funniest beach read. When Crazy Rich Asians hit shelves in peak beach-read season two summers ago, readers ate up its unrestrained and uproarious fictional depictions of the opulent lives of Asia's super elite. . . China Rich Girlfriend follow[s] the same multitentacled clan and their world-traveling, high-spending, and backstabbing antics.\" Lauren Christensen, Vanity Fair \u00a0 The much-anticipated sequel to Crazy Rich Asians (a great summer read in its own right), China Rich Girlfriend continues the tale of Rachel Chu and her upcoming nuptials to Nicholas Young, heir to one of the greatest fortunes in Asia...

Kwan himself is from Singapore, and these sharply observed books have an insider s authority.\u00a0Girlfriend is also so diverting that it (almost) made me forget that my seatmate on a recent flight from New York to Dubai was muttering to himself nonstop. Hanya Yanagihara, Conde Nast Traveler\u00a0 \"Lifestyles of the rich and famous, China-style. A follow to Kwan's lively debut, Crazy Rich Asians, this new book delivers more over-the-top consumption in Asia's most exclusive locale. The Houston Chronicle Kevin Kwan has a new book coming out soon. It's called\u00a0China Rich Girlfriend,\u00a0and if you don't know why this is shriek-worthy news, allow me to introduce you to Kwan's first novel, Crazy Rich Asians, [a] gloriously, irreverently fun and dishy novel. Roxane Gay, NPR His first book was a riot of high-spending extremes, and in its sequel Kevin Kwan again revels in a world where Gulfstream jets come with their own koi ponds The equivalent of a Bubble Tea concoction laced with Henry James extracts and Jackie Collins sprinkles tracking a level of wealth that makes even\u00a0Downton Abbey\u00a0look more like\u00a0Downton Arriviste Unravelling the endless modes of snobbery is sport for Kwan, and the set pieces in China Rich Girlfriend\u00a0are such that even Serena van der Woodsen might gasp Ingenious In the same way that Edith Wharton catalogued the Gilded Age via novels like\u00a0The Age of Innocence, Kwan in his novels is doing his bit for a China that now has the second-highest number of millionaires in the world. Shinan Govani, The Daily Beast\u00a0 Kwan returns with an equally good-natured, catty-as-hell sequel to his bestselling roman \u00e0 clef about China's new and old money dynasties. For those not cued in, Kwan's tone is breakneck and utterly disarming part Oscar Wilde, part Judith Krantz, part Arthur Frommer . . . Hilarious . . . Over-the-top and hard to stop. Kirkus China Rich Girlfriend is the most fun I ve had reading a book in quite some time. The vibrantly drawn characters and equally vivid settings in and around Beijing make for a jam-packed, lively story [and] a cast of characters who are wholly believable and human. Amy Scribner, BookPage\u00a0 To be let loose into the decadent playground of the filthy rich offers the reader a heady taste of vicarious escapism Yet to dismiss this book as merely a soulless lark would be a disservice to Kwan and his impeccable writing. Behind their dapper and chic exteriors, his caricatures have messy emotional lives and grapple with the same problems facing the rest of us not blessed with unfathomable wealth Read\u00a0China Rich Girlfriend\u00a0for the exuberant spectacle of zippy vintage cars, gossipy matriarchs-who-lunch and reckless profligacy but read it also for its very engaging narrative about people like us. Thuy On, The Sydney Morning Herald\u00a0 What happens when the young woman destined to marry Asia s most eligible bachelor gets derailed by a shocking family secret? That s what Kwan (Crazy Rich Asians) examines in this amusing, whirlwind novel about Rachel Chu, who discovers her long-lost father and falls headlong into a Shanghai the fashion! the social climbing! the secrets! wilder than her wildest dreams. The Miami Herald I loved\u00a0China Rich Girlfriend Like\u00a0Gossip Girl\u00a0and\u00a0Dynasty\u00a0and the royal family of England all at the same time. Kwan s characters behave hideously and it s hilarious. \u00a0 Elaine Lui,\u00a0Flare Kwan s latest follows in the footsteps of his wildly imaginative\u00a0Crazy Rich Asians\u00a0but adds even more conspicuous consumption and over-the-top behavior Resplendent with gorgeous description . The dialog is always top-notch. There are many fascinating substories... A sprinkling of footnotes adds local expressions, insightful asides, and Kwan s own snarky personal comments. Among the many laugh-out-loud incidents are examples of the extreme cheapness of some of these \u00adultrawealthy people and tidbits about their staff The conclusion offers up additional shocks and surprises that will have readers clamoring for more. Those who enjoy splendid writing and getting a glimpse at how the other half (probably much less than 50 percent) lives will delight in this book. Library Journal (Starred Review) Very enjoyable... Just as funny as Crazy Rich Asians, this globe-spanning tale of excess includes enough snootiness and class snobbery to fill a multitude of designer handbags. It s a modern-day comedy of manners that highlights what it means to be China rich as well as the things that money can never buy. Minneapolis Star Tribune\"China Rich Girlfriend\u00a0is an engaging page-turner with a multi-layered, inventive narrative. Kwan has clearly taken a few lessons from one of America's great social satirists - think Tom Wolfe set loose on the wealthiest enclaves of Confucian Asia His sequel is not only dazzlingly creative (a private jet decorated to look like a Balinese resort? Take me there, please!) and rollicking good fun, but also ambitious in its scope and dimension. With China Rich Girlfriend, Kwan shows readers that to get rich is one thing, but to get crazy rich is glorious. He also proves his standing as one of the few authors talented, confident and savvy enough to engage an international readership and serve up the New Asia on a gleaming 24-karat gold platter.\"South China Morning Post Singapore-based sensation Kevin Kwan follows up his smash success, Crazy Rich Asians, which is currently being made into a film, with another sure-to-be hit. As with his first novel, Kwan takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the lives and nuptial preparations of absurdly wealthy society folks in mainland China. Readers Digest (Canada)China Rich Girlfriend, Kevin Kwan s sequel to the bestselling Crazy Rich Asians, is perhaps even more delicious than the first A frothy ction focused on a multigenerational, intermarried, mega-rich clan Kwan created a new hybrid universe one where there s a preoccupation with lineage and marrying off daughters into rich families that is the realm of Jane Austen, combined with an obsession with social hierarchy and status signifiers straight out of Tom Wolfe [This] delicious sequel manages to be more nuanced (and savage) in its social deconstruction and even more fun Moments of human generosity and decency are peppered throughout.

Arianna Huffington's personal wake-up call came in the form of a broken cheekbone and a nasty gash over her eye--the result of a fall brought on by exhaustion and lack of sleep. As the cofounder and editor-in-chief of the Huffington Post Media Group--one of the fastest growing media companies in the world--celebrated as one of the world's most influential women, and gracing the covers of magazines, she was, by any traditional measure, extraordinarily successful. Yet as she found herself going from brain MRI to CAT scan to echocardiogram, to find out if there was any underlying medical problem beyond exhaustion, she wondered is this really what success feels like? As more and more people are coming to realize, there is far more to living a truly successful life than just earning a bigger salary and capturing a corner office. Our relentless pursuit of the two traditional metrics of success--money and power--has led to an epidemic of burnout and stress-related illnesses, and an erosion in the quality of our relationships, family life, and, ironically, our careers. In being connected to the world 24\/7, we're losing our connection to what truly matters. Our current definition of success is, as Thrive shows, literally killing us. We need a new way forward. In a commencement address Arianna gave at Smith College in the spring of 2013, she likened our drive for money and power to two legs of a three-legged stool. They may hold us up temporarily, but sooner or later we're going to topple over. We need a third leg--a third metric for defining success--to truly thrive. That third metric, she writes in Thrive, includes our well-being, our ability to draw on our intuition and inner wisdom, our sense of wonder, and our capacity for compassion and giving. As Arianna points out, our eulogies celebrate our lives very differently from the way society defines success. They don't commemorate our long hours in the office, our promotions, or our sterling PowerPoint presentations as we relentlessly raced to climb up the career ladder. They are not about our resumes--they are about cherished memories, shared adventures, small kindnesses and acts of generosity, lifelong passions, and the things that made us laugh. In this deeply personal book, Arianna talks candidly about her own challenges with managing time and prioritizing the demands of a career and raising two daughters--of juggling business deadlines and family crises, a harried dance that led to her collapse and to her \"aha moment.\" Drawing on the latest groundbreaking research and scientific findings in the fields of psychology, sports, sleep, and physiology that show the profound and transformative effects of meditation, mindfulness, unplugging, and giving, Arianna shows us the way to a revolution in our culture, our thinking, our workplace, and our lives.","merchants_number":1,"ean":9780804140867,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":24.699999999999999289457264239899814128875732421875,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":5449730,"merchants":["dodax"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"thrive-2","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/thrive-2\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

Their movement has a typical corkscrew characteristic. There are many species associated with different diseases. This chapter describes the taxonomy, genetic structure and general characteristics of the Campylobacter genus focusing on thermophilic species and\/or those that colonize the intestinal tract of birds. Chapter 2 Isolation and identification of Campylobacter spp. in poultry Omar A. Oyarzabal and Heriberto Fern\u00e1ndez Poultry products, especially chicken meat, continue to be important sources of campylobacteriosis in humans. This chapter reviews the current methods used for the isolation and identification of Campylobacter spp. from chicken products. Emphasis is placed on the enrichment protocols, the plate media that are most costly efficient for isolation purposes and the current approaches to identification of isolates to the genus or species level. The current methodology used in some South American countries to detect Campylobacter spp. from poultry products is also summarized. Chapter 3 Colonization of Campylobacter jejuni in poultry Bel chiolina Beatriz Fonseca, \u00c1lvaro Ferreira Junior, Gustavo Medina, Marcelo Emilio Beletti, Eliane Pereira Mendon\u00e7a Campylobacter jejuni colonizes the poultry intestinal tract in high quantity and can establish a commensal behavior in the host. However, it has been suggested a pathogenic behavior of C. jejuni in chickens. Pathogen-associated virulence factors and host immune res ponse can influence the chicken intestinal colonization and the pathological and clinical manifestations. This article describes the main structures involved during the colonization of C. jejuni in poultry and the possible consequences of the pathogen and host interactions for poultry. Chapter 4 Immune response after Campylobacter infection in poultry \u00c1lvaro Ferreira Junior, Edson Campos Valadares Junior, Belchiolina Beatriz Fonseca This chapter describes about the host immune responses against Campylobacter spp. We compare chicken and mammal host innate and acquired immune response against the bacterium. In addition, we describe the role of maternal antibody protection in offspring's early life. We present the intriguing phenomena of pathogen and host relationship and the apparent post-infection host immune tolerance. In this context, some questions should be highlighted: are the control procedures for Campylobacter jejuni-infection in chickens relevant to reduce C. jejuni-infection in human hosts? Are the currentl y used C. jejuni-vaccines protective against the chicken infection? Is an alternative procedure the administration of passive oral immunization using powdered antibodies to control chicken and human C. jejuni infection? We also discusses about the possible potential of antigenic targets to the vaccine production. Chapter 5 Campylobacter-host cell interactions Claudio Silva, Marlus Alves Santos, Fl\u00e1via Alves Martins This chapter begins with a historical background of evolutionary origin of the cells since the emergence addressing the endosymbiosis theory by which prokaryotes gave rise to the first eukaryotic cells, describes the relationship between existing cell types that may have evolved with predation to mutualism or parasitism. Also, discuss some interactions between parasitic unicellular organisms and its cell host, taking into account the dynamic actin cytoskeleton and the immune response resulting from the invasion. Finally analyses the case of C. jejuni, its types of invasion routes, intracellular traffic, virulence factors and colonization of poultry cells.

Adequate single-volume biographies about FDR abound. But none are as heroically objective and wide-angled as this fine Dallek effort. . . . By tapping into the vast correspondence between Churchill and Roosevelt, Dallek discerns a more strained relationship between the leaders than presupposed. . . . Luckily for us, Roosevelt is with us again in Dallek s outstanding cradle-to-grave study. When it comes to choosing the two indispensable presidents in U.S. history, Dallek places Roosevelt alongside Abraham Lincoln, the other great improviser with Providence on his side. Douglas Brinkley, The Washington Post \u00a0 Dallek fully incorporates into his narrative Roosevelt s complicated, conflicted relationship with the several women in his life and is especially good on the role Eleanor played, as goad and political advisor. He also makes it clear, in a way other biographers do not, that almost from the moment he entered office, Roosevelt set out to educate the nation to the fact that the United States was threatened not only by economic depression at home, but also by fascist aggressions abroad. . . . Dallek s is a workmanlike addition to the literature on Roosevelt. David Nasaw, The New York Times Dallek constantly seeks to find an answer to FDR s political trajectory: What fueled his ambition to serve in the political arena and with what political aims? Also the extent to which it was FDR s experiences abroad as a child, then at school, at Harvard, in the New York legislature that determined his later progress in the real world. Undergirding all of these, Dallek sees Roosevelt s moral war on deceit and corruption. In an era in which moral, linguistic, and financial corruption hold sway, this story could not be more timely. . . . From beginning to end Dallek has earnestly followed his own curiosity as a citizen and as a teacher, so that at last we come to see in FDR the magisterial, central figure in the greatest and richest political tapestry of our nation s entire history. Nigel Hamilton, Boston Globe \u00a0 [Dallek] believes that FDR was a born politician of ferocious and very nearly infallible instincts, and through a combination of extensive research and first-rate storyteller s gifts, he makes the reader believe it, too. His Roosevelt is a man of great but always complicated drives, a worrier and second-guesser who nonetheless often believed the intensely stirring things he so often said and wrote. . . . Dallek relates in fine and compelling detail all the thorniest scandals of the FDR years. . . . But far more prominent than scandal in these pages and far more welcome are Dallek s frequent examinations of the now-forgotten political opposition FDR faced at every stage of his long tenure as president. . . . We see FDR afresh, which is an amazing feat in its own right. Steve Donoghue, Christian Science Monitor An insightful, incisive and intelligent one-volume work of biography and history and a pointed primer on how things in Washington get done. In a period defined by division, gridlock and tweet storms, Dallek crafts a pointillist portrait of the four-term president, who knew almost intuitively how to use the power of his office and how to reach consensus. Peter M. Gianotti, Newsday Few scholars have the qualifications of Robert Dallek to tell this story. . . . Franklin D. Roosevelt: A Political Life covers much more than the momentous challenges faced by FDR as president. It gives an honest outline of his life including his attitudes as a privileged undemocratic snob who used the influence of men he considered unworthy of public influence. . . . Despite the book s size, the complexity of its subject, and the narrative s variance with common public memory, it is a fast engaging read that corrects, even scatters, misconceptions. The author provides an entertaining narrative in a style not unlike that of FDR. Robert S. Davis, New York Journal of Books A characteristically adroit work that is balanced in coverage and prudent in assessment. . . . [Dallek s] emphasis falls on the two great crises of FDR s presidency the Depression and WWII and highlights FDR s emergence as a skillful politician. . . . All will benefit from Dallek s principal addition to earlier works on FDR: the convincing argument that as early as May 1943 FDR was showing signs of the illness that would kill him. The result is a comprehensive retelling of a major American life that will rank among the standard biographies of its subject. Publishers Weekly This focused study of the four term-winning president emphasizes his instinctive feel for the public mood. . . . Dallek is a seasoned presidential historian and biographer. Here, he writes with authority about Franklin Roosevelt s political life and mission to create a new social order during a time of enduring national transformation. . . .\u00a0Dallek examines several formative factors that contributed greatly to Roosevelt's ability to successfully tap the public sentiment and address significant issues. . . . The author also effectively shows how Roosevelt was an astute political animal who sometimes made questionable decisions for political expedience. . . .\u00a0A lively one-volume treatment well-suited to libraries and schools. Kirkus Reviews [Dallek] takes on the daunting task of providing a comprehensive one-volume biography of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He succeeds in presenting the abundance of information in a flowing and highly readable narrative, and he supports FDR s story with memorable sketches of the president s many associates . . . his varied opponents, the foreign leaders who served opposite him (Dallek is particularly good on Churchill), and many others. Eleanor, too, is portrayed in full, complete with a notably honest account of her marriage to Franklin. . . . A first-rate biography and a must-buy for most public-library history collections. Booklist (starred review) Recounts the politician s greatest challenges, including trying presidential elections and the years leading up to and during World War II. Dallek s familiarity with his subject and deep understanding of American history and context shines in his clear and engaging prose. . . .\u00a0readers will gain a solid sense of Roosevelt s political mind and an inspiring appreciation of his mighty character. . . .\u00a0This highly recommended, expertly crafted book will please a variety of readers, especially those interested in biographies as well as presidential, military, and American history. Library Journal\u00a0(starred review) Robert Dallek has brought a lifetime s immersion in the American presidency to produce what will almost certainly be seen as the most authoritative single-volume biography of our most important 20th Century president. Franklin D. Roosevelt: A Political Life is a landmark work that deserves to be placed on the same shelf as those of Arthur Schlesinger Jr., James MacGregor Burns, and William E. Leuchtenburg. Richard Moe, author of Roosevelt s Second Act: The Election of 1940 and the Politics of War A great liberal historian has written the best one-volume biography about our greatest liberal president.\u00a0 Sparing neither criticism nor admiration, Robert Dallek offers an FDR relevant to our sharply divided nation: a master politician who gained the trust of most of his fellow Americans by empathizing eloquently with their problems and working himself to death to solve them. Michael Kazin, author of\u00a0War Against War: The American Fight for Peace, 1914-1918 Robert Dallek is a leading authority on the presidency and his book on Roosevelt is a masterful and complex portrayal of one of America s greatest presidents, a leader who had the vision and character to reveal to the country its potential as a great nation. Howard Dean, former DNC chairman and six-term governor of Vermont Robert Dallek s brilliant portrayal of Franklin D. Roosevelt is an inspiring read, a timely reminder that political leadership involves judgment and intelligence. Battling the Great Depression and a global war, the 32nd president harnessed wisdom to decision making, and political acumen to governance. No historian understands FDR better than Dallek, who has captured in this single page-turning volume how America was really made great again. Martin J. Sherwin, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J.
