Stefan Austs Buch ist keine Anklageschrift und nicht das Plädoyer eines Verteidigers, es ist auch kein Urteil, weder in juristischer noch in moralischer Hinsicht. Es soll ein Protokoll sein, eine Chronik der Ereignisse vom Juni 1967, als der Student Benno Ohnesorg von einem Polizisten erschossen wurde, bis zum "Deutschen Herbst" 1977, der Entführung und späteren Ermordung des Arbeitgeberpräsidenten Hanns Martin Schleyer, der Entführung und Befreiung der Passagiere und Besatzungsmitglieder der Lufthansa-Maschine "Landshut" und den Selbstmorden im Hochsicherheitstrakt von Stammheim.

A natural history of the wilderness in our homes, from the microbes in our showers to the crickets in our basements Even when the floors are sparkling clean and the house seems silent, our domestic domain is wild beyond imagination. In Never Home Alone, biologist Rob Dunn introduces us to the nearly 200,000 species living with us in our own homes, from the Egyptian meal moths in our cupboards and camel crickets in our basements to the lactobacillus lounging on our kitchen counters. You are not alone.

A powerful return to the forest, where trees have heartbeats and roots are like brains that extend underground. Where the colour green calms us, and the forest sharpens our senses. In The Heartbeat of Trees, renowned forester Peter Wohlleben draws on new scientific discoveries to show how humans are deeply connected to the natural world. In an era of climate change, many of us fear we’ve lost our connection to nature, but Wohlleben is convinced that age-old ties linking humans to the forest remain alive and intact. We just have to know where to look.

Several years ago, ecologist Lauren E. Oakes set out from California for Alaska's old-growth forests to hunt for a dying tree: the yellow-cedar. With climate change as the culprit, the death of this species meant loss for many Alaskans. Oakes and her research team wanted to chronicle how plants and people could cope with their rapidly changing world. Amidst the standing dead, she discovered the resiliency of forgotten forests, flourishing again in the wake of destruction, and a diverse community of people who persevered to create new relationships with the emerging environment.
