    In diesem Sammelband teilen elf Autorinnen aus dem DACH-Raum ihre Erfahrungen rund um den unerfüllten Kinderwunsch und Fehlgeburten. Sehr persönlich und bewegend nehmen sie uns mit auf ihre Kinderwunschreise. In der Verletzlichkeit und den Emotionen ihrer Texte sind nicht nur wertvolle Impulse für die eigene Kinderwunschzeit zu finden, sondern es werden am Rande auch Defizite in unseren gesellschaftlichen Systemen sichtbar. Das Buch zeigt, wie wichtig es ist, dass diese Themen aus der Tabuzone rausgeholt werden, damit sich Betroffene nicht mehr so allein fühlen. Elf bewegende Geschichten und drei Interviews über unerfüllten Kinderwunsch, Fehlgeburt und Co., die dir Mut machen sollen, deinen eigenen Weg im Kinderwunsch zu gehen.

    Die »Schutzstaffel« (SS) war zunächst eine kleine Gruppe von Männern zu Hitlers persönlicher Sicherheit. Sie war »mehr security als Elite«, zunächst Untergruppe der SA. Erst mit deren Auslöschung 1934, als sie mit 4,5 Mio. Mitgliedern zu mächtig geworden war und eine Bedrohung für die Reichswehr darstellte, begann der Aufstieg der SS. Sie war kein Verein, in den man eintreten und aus dem man wieder austreten konnte. Sie glich einem Orden. Auf dem Koppelschloss ihrer Mitglieder stand »Unsere Ehre heißt Treue«. Die SS gliederte sich in drei Sparten: die Allgemeine SS, die SS-Totenkopfverbände zur Bewachung der Konzentrationslager und die SS-Verfügungstruppen, die schließlich zur Waffen-SS wurden.Ihre Beteiligung an zahlreichen Kriegsverbrechen ist umfangreich dokumentiert: 1941 wurden von Bataillonen der Waffen-SS im Protektorat Böhmen und Mähren »anlässlich des zivilen Ausnahmezustands« 99 Personen in Prag erschossen und 21 erhängt; 54 Zivilisten in Brünn erschossen und 17 erhängt; es gab insgesamt 191 Hinrichtungen. Auch das Massaker 1942 im tschechischen Lidice ging auf dass Konto der Waffen-SS. Ein weiteres Massaker beging eine Formation der Waffen-SS im französischen Oradour sur Glane: am 10. Juni 1944 wurden 181 Männer des Orts erschossen, 254 Frauen und 207 Kinder wurden in die Kirche eingesperrt, anschließend wurde die Kirche angezündet. Im italienischen Marzabotto tötete die 16. SS-Panzergrenadierdivision »Reichsführer-SS« Anfang Oktober 1944 mehr als 770 Personen, alte Männer, Frauen und 213 Kinder unter 13 Jahren.Jegliche militärischen Formationen benötigen Truppenärzte. Was waren das für Ärzte, die sich zur Waffen-SS meldeten? Wie kamen sie dorthin? Freiwillig? Wurden sie eingezogen? Und in welcher Weise waren die Ärzte der Waffen-SS an Kriegsverbrechen beteiligt? Die Autorin hat auf Basis der biografischen Daten von insgesamt 50 Waffen-SS-Ärzten deren Rolle im nationalsozialistischen Terrorregime untersucht. Unter ihnen Josef Mengele, der von der SS-Division Wiking krankheitshalber ins KZ als Lagerarzt von Auschwitz versetzt wurde, oder der ebenfalls berühmt-berüchtigte Erwin Ding-Schuler, der Lagerarzt im KZ Buchenwald war. Behandelt werden ebenso Fluktuationen der SS-Ärzte zwischen den lagerärztlichen Tätigkeiten in Konzentrationslagern und dem Dienst als Truppenarzt in der Waffen-SS. Es geht auch um Wehrmachtsärzte und ihren Bezug zu Ärzten der Waffen-SS. Im Schlussteil wird deutlich gemacht, warum vor allem Ärzte das alles wissen sollten.

    For some years, much of my leisure time has been devoted to the study of the anatomy, development, and habits of the Annulosa, and especially of Insects, on which subjects I have published various memoirs, chiefly in the Transactions of the Royal, Linnæan, and Entomological Societies: of these papers I subjoin a list. Although the details, of which these memoirs necessarily for the most part consist, offer little interest, excepting to those persons who are specially devoted to Entomology, still there are portions which, having reference to the nature of metamorphoses and to the origin of insects, are of a more general character. I have also briefly referred to these questions in a Monograph of the Collembola and Thysanura, recently published by the Ray Society, and in the Opening Address to the Biological Section of the British Association at Brighton in 1872. Under these circumstances, it has been suggested to me that a small volume, containing, at somewhat greater length, in a more accessible form, and with the advantage of illustrations, the conclusions to which I have been led on this interesting subject, might not be altogether without interest to the general reader. The result, which has already appeared in the pages of _Nature_, is now submitted to the public, with some additions. I am well aware that it has no pretence to be in any sense a complete treatise; that the subject itself is one as to which our knowledge is still very incomplete, and on which the highest authorities are much divided in opinion. Whatever differences of opinion, however, there may be as to the views here put forward, the facts on which they are based will, I believe, be found correct. On this point I speak with the more confidence, on account of the valuable assistance I have received from many friends: to Mr. and Mrs. Busk and Dr. Hooker I am especially indebted.

    "How to Read Human Nature" is a book written by William Walker Atkinson. Published in the early 20th century, Atkinson's work often delves into topics related to New Thought philosophy, mysticism, and self-help. "How to Read Human Nature" likely explores the art of understanding and interpreting human behavior and characteristics.William Walker Atkinson was a prolific writer and one of the key figures in the New Thought movement. His writings often blended elements of psychology, philosophy, and spirituality. In this particular book, readers can expect insights into human behavior, personality traits, and potentially methods for better understanding and interacting with others.As with many works from this period, the content may reflect the cultural and philosophical ideas prevalent during the early 1900s. If you have an interest in the historical development of self-help literature or the New Thought movement, "How to Read Human Nature" could provide an interesting perspective from that era. Keep in mind that the scientific rigor of such works may vary, and the ideas presented may be more reflective of the beliefs of the time than contemporary psychological understanding.

    Since Logic derives from postulates, it never has, and never will, change a postulate. And a religious belief is a system of postulates ... so how can a man fight a native superstition with logic? Or anything else ...?Miles Gilbert watched the landscape slide away below him, its quilt of rounded treetops mottled red and orange in the double sunlight and, in shaded places, with the natural yellow of the vegetation of Kwannon. The aircar began a slow swing to the left, and Gettler Alpha came into view, a monstrous smear of red incandescence with an optical diameter of two feet at arm's length, slightly flattened on the bottom by the western horizon. In another couple of hours it would be completely set, but by that time Beta, the planet's G-class primary, would be at its midafternoon hottest. He glanced at his watch. It was 1005, but that was Galactic Standard Time, and had no relevance to anything that was happening in the local sky. It did mean, though, that it was five minutes short of two hours to 'cast-time. He snapped on the communication screen in front of him, and Harry Walsh, the news editor, looked out of it at him from the office in Bluelake, halfway across the continent. He wanted to know how things were going.

    The ancients laid down the laws of literary form in prose as well as in verse, and bequeathed to posterity works which still serve as models of excellence. Their poets and historians continue to be read for the sake of the narrative and beauty of the style; their philosophers for breadth and depth of thought; and their orators for judicious analysis and impassioned eloquence. In the exact sciences, too, the ancients were conspicuous leaders by reason of the number and magnitude of the discoveries which they made. You have only to think of Euclid and his "Elements," of Apollonius and his Conics, of Eratosthenes and his determination of the earth's circumference, of Archimedes and his mensuration of the sphere, and of the inscription on Plato's Academy, Let none ignorant of geometry enter my door, to realize the fondness of the Greek mind for abstract truth and its suppleness and ingenuity in mathematical investigation. But the sciences of observation did not advance with equal pace; nor was this to be expected, as time is an essential element in experimentation and in the collection of data, both of which are necessary for the framing of theories in explanation of natural phenomena.

    In order to emphasise the importance of the reforms introduced into astronomy by Kepler, it will be well to sketch briefly the history of the theories which he had to overthrow. In very early times it must have been realised that the sun and moon were continually changing their places among the stars. The day, the month, and the year were obvious divisions of time, and longer periods were suggested by the tabulation of eclipses. We can imagine the respect accorded to the Chaldaean sages who first discovered that eclipses could be predicted, and how the philosophers of Mesopotamia must have sought eagerly for evidence of fresh periodic laws. Certain of the stars, which appeared to wander, and were hence called planets, provided an extended field for these speculations. Among the Chaldaeans and Babylonians the knowledge gradually acquired was probably confined to the priests and utilised mainly for astrological prediction or the fixing of religious observances.

    We live in and form part of a system of things of immense diversity and perplexity, which we call Nature; and it is a matter of the deepest interest to all of us that we should form just conceptions of the constitution of that system and of its past history. With relation to this universe, man is, in extent, little more than a mathematical point; in duration but a fleeting shadow; he is a mere reed shaken in the winds of force. But as Pascal long ago remarked, although a mere reed, he is a thinking reed; and in virtue of that wonderful capacity of thought, he has the power of framing for himself a symbolic conception of the universe, which, although doubtless highly imperfect and inadequate as a picture of the great whole, is yet sufficient to serve him as a chart for the guidance of his practical affairs. It has taken long ages of toilsome and often fruitless labour to enable man to look steadily at the shifting scenes of the phantasmagoria of Nature, to notice what is fixed among her fluctuations, and what is regular among her apparent irregularities; and it is only comparatively lately, within the last few centuries, that the conception of a universal order and of a definite course of things, which we term the course of Nature, has emerged.

    The literature of Botany can be traced back to a quite respectable antiquity, to the period of Aristotle (b.c. 384-322) who seems to have been the first to write of plants from the truly botanical point of view. Unfortunately, his special treatise on plants¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿is lost; and although there are many botanical passages scattered throughout his other writings (which have been collected by Wimmer, Phytologiae Aristotelicae Fragmenta, 1836), yet none of them gives any indication of what his ideas of classification may have been. An echo of them is perhaps to be found in the works of his favourite pupil, Theophrastus Eresius (b.c. 371-286), who among all his fellows was the most successful in pursuing the botanical studies that they had begun under the guidance of the master. Theophrastus left behind him two important, though incomplete, treatises on plants, the oldest that have survived: the more familiar Latin titles of which are De Historia Plantarum and [De Causis Plantarum]. The latter is essentially physiological, touching upon agriculture to a certain extent: the former is mainly morphological, structural, descriptive, and it is here that the first attempt at a classification of plants is to be found. In writing the Historia, Theophrastus was endeavouring, as a Greek philosopher rather than as a botanist, to "give account of" plants; and in order to do so he found it necessary to arrange them in some kind of order.

    It is the wire age. Modern life, in all its intricate bearings, runs on wire. Wire everywhere; in the heavens above, the earth beneath and the waters under the earth. In all the legerdemain of science, which has put nature in bondage, wire is the indispensable agent. A curious, slow, finical little trade at which the smiths of forgotten races toiled and pottered and ruined their eyesight for unnumbered thousands of years has become, within less than a century, under the spur of modern need and modern driving power, the pack-bearer of the world and the mainspring of every activity from the cradle to the grave. Wire still makes toys and gewgaws as it always did, but it is no longer the plaything of vanity alone. Cancel wire and wire rope and their concomitant, ¿flat wire,¿ from the inventory of human assets tomorrow, and the world would stop stock-still.

    The "King of Archery," "The World's Greatest Archer," "One-Shot," all names referring to Howard Hill -the champion of the longbow. No matter the title, Howard Hill was legendary, and his success led to the promotion of traditional archery and a surge of interest in the American Semi-Longbow.Howard Hill viewed the longbow as the most perfect hunting weapon. His modification of the English longbow to suit his needs, became the American Semi-Longbow. The American Semi-Longbow is synonymous with a Hill-style longbow -the bow that led him in his success.Today there are many versions of the American Semi-Longbow. In a quest to find the features that Howard Hill demanded in his own bows, a weapon that he perfected, was the impetus of this study. We can identify his standards by how his bows were built, what he insisted on in his own line of bows offered to the public, and what he taught to the bowyers employed by him. By examining Howard's original bows and following the progression of design until he perfected this weapon, we understand the qualities necessary in a Hill-style longbow. If you would like to know more about the equipment and the bow that led to his success, then you will enjoy this book.Metadata may include Howard Hill, John Schulz, Traditional Archery, Bamboo Bows, Stick Bows, Self Bows, ASL, Hill-Style Longbow, Archery Hunting, Archery History in America, Hunting with the Bow and Arrow, and Hunting the Hard Way.
