"Fod på Andalusien 4" indeholder 27 udflugts- og vandreture, hvoraf de fleste er helt ukendte. Vi er ude i den vilde natur, som Andalusien har så rigeligt af, og vi vandrer gennem naturparker, over sletter og ned i dale, over bjergpas og ned i kløfter. Af og til bor vi på lækre hoteller og spiser gourmetmad, men de fleste gange spiser vi madpakker på bjergsider. Jo, Andalusien har det hele ... og lidt til. Tag med ind i hjertet af denne smukke region, hvor solen næsten altid skinner og havet blinker. Det bliver ikke bedre noget andet sted på planeten!

Da Kronprins Frederik i 2009 blev medlem af den internationale olympiske komite, IOC, blev han også danmarkshistoriens mest omdiskuterede sportsleder. Mange danskere frygtede, at den danske tronarvings karriere i den økonomisk og politisk magtfulde komite ville ophæve den danske tradition med et apolitisk kongehus. I "Frederik, Kronprins af Danmark - Konge af en anden verden" undersøger Lars Jørgensen, hvordan tronarvingen i praksis har forvaltet sin første otte års medlemsperiode i komiteen - både set i lyset af den følelsesladede danske debat, der har været om hans idrætspolitiske karriere, og den internationale debat, der i samme periode har været om udviklingen i den olympiske sportsverden.

"Entertaining, informative, thought-provoking, mysterious, poetic. Men who read it will surely learn much about themselves, and women--particularly those who are unfortunately misled into thinking of men as "the enemy"--will find it a real eye-opener."--Ruth Tiffany Barnhouse, M.D., Th.M., Harvard UniversityRobert A. Johnson's classic work exploring the differences between man and woman, female and male--newly reissued.What does it really mean to be a man? What are some of the landmarks along the road to mature masculinity? And what of the feminine components of a man's personality? Women have developed, over the centuries, considerable expertise in the technique of adapting to men, and for good reason, but that is not the same as truly understanding them. The transition from male childhood to real manhood is a complicated struggle, and explored in this book.As timely today as when it was first published, He provides a fascinating look into male identity and how female dynamics influence men.

Producer gas is generated from solid fuels such as wood, charcoal, coal, peat, and agricultural residues. Although it has been used to power internal combustion engines since their invention, it has been largely overlooked for the past 50 years. During the early 1940s, when petroleum supplies for civilian use ran out in Europe, Asia, and Australia, producer gas was responsible for putting trucks, buses, taxis, tractors and other vehicles back on the roads, and boats back on the rivers. In 1939 Europe operated about 9,000 gas producer buses and trucks, and there were almost none on any other continent. By 1941, however, about 450,000 vehicles were in operation in all parts of the world, and by 1942 the number had grown to approximately 920,000. Gas producers were then in use not only in land vehicles, but also in boats, barges, and stationary engines. By 1946 more than a million motorized devices around the world operated on producer gas. In Europe and Asia alone, the use of producer gas in the 1940s contributed to saving millions of people from starvation. Basically, producer gas is made when a thin stream of air passes through a bed of glowing coals. The coals may come from the burning of wood, charcoal, coke, coal, peat, or from wastes such as corn cobs, peanut shells, sawdust, bagasse, and paper. (In some cases these materials must be pressed into bricks or pellets before they will produce adequate coals, and special generators may also be needed.)

For many complaints and conditions, the benefits from surgery are lower, and the risks higher, than you or your surgeon think. In this book you will see how commonly performed operations can be found to be useless or even harmful when properly evaluated. That these claims come from an experienced, practising orthopaedic surgeon who performs many of these operations himself, makes the unsettling argument particularly compelling.Of course no surgeon is recommending invasive surgery in bad faith, but Ian Harris argues that the evidence for the success for many common operations, including knee arthroscopies, back fusion or cardiac stenting, become current accepted practice without full examination of the evidence. The placebo effect may be real, but is it worth the recovery time, expense and discomfort?
