In Indien ist die Kuh heilig. Das Abschlachten von Kühen würde viele Inder empören, so kommt Rindfleisch nun als "Büffelfleisch" auf den Tisch. Statt mit dem traditionsreichen Senföl wird mit dem angeblich gesünderen Sojaöl gekocht, die Getreidevielfalt weicht Standardweizen und Standardreis. Hinter diesem Wandel der indischen Ernährungsgewohnheiten stecken die Interessen der globalen Agrarindustrie.

Wolf-Dieter Storl erzählt wie ein indischer Märchenerzähler - mit spürbarer Begeisterung und spannend wie ein Hörspiel. Er erzählt Mythen und Geschichten von Shiva. Shiva ist nicht nur einer der vielen Götter. Er ist der Gott der Götter, der Urgrund allen Seins, die letzte und einzige Wirklichkeit. Die Welt und all ihre Geschöpfe entspringen seiner ekstatischen Meditation. Als Raubtier streift er durch die Wälder. Als Kraut, Baum und grüner Halm, der im Sonnenlicht badet, genießt er die Welt.

What is life? Many scientists believe life can be reduced to ‘mechanistic’ factors, such as genes and information codes. Yet there is a growing army of scientists, philosophers and artists who reject this view. The gene metaphor is not only too simplistic but deeply misleading. If there is a way to reduce life to a single principle, that principle must acknowledge the creativity of life, turning genetic determinism on its head.

The mind-numbingly alien Arachnids were an enemy whose like no civilized race had ever confronted. Like some carnivorous cancer, the "Bugs" had overrun planet after planet...and they regarded any competing sentient species as only one more protein source. They couldn't be reasoned with, or even talked to, because no one had the least idea of how to communicate with a telepathic species with no recognizable language...and whose response to any communication attempt was a missile salvo.

In Stolen Harvest: The Hijacking of the Global Food Supply, Vandana Shiva explores the devastating effects of commercial agriculture and genetic engineering on the food we eat, the farmers who grow it, and the soil that sustains it.
