Floating Death: The Penetrator Series, Book 25 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 288min
Epidemic! It began in the peaceful pastures of Wisconsin. Death had occurred from contaminated milk and dairy products, and the farmers stood by helplessly as their herds were condemned and slaughtered on nothing more than suspicion. US Public Health Service official Dr. Creighton Thornesby personally supervised the shooting of the cattle. He wanted to prevent future outbreaks - or did he? Only the Penetrator knew who Thornesby really was - and he had to stop the deranged doctor from carrying out his insane plan to control the world through germ warfare...before everybody on Earth was exposed to the virulent bubonic plague! ungekürzt.

Die Familie unter dem Mikroskop
Wie eine bahnbrechende Entdeckung der Zellbiologie die Geschlechterhierarchie infrage stellte.Wenn Spermium und Eizelle sich bei der Zeugung vereinigen, geben beide ihr Erbmaterial an den Embryo weiter. Dieser seinerzeit revolutionäre biologische Befund von 1875 hatte weitreichende Folgen, nicht zuletzt für das Erb- und Familienrecht. Denn aus der Erkenntnis, dass väterliche und mütterliche Anteile an die Nachkommen weitergegeben werden, resultierten politische Fragen der Gleichberechtigung und der Verteilungsgerechtigkeit.Solche Themen waren speziell im Deutschen Kaiserreich virulent, als zwischen 1870 und 1900 das Bürgerliche Gesetzbuch entstand. Das BGB legte die Grundlage für das Verständnis von Familie als biologischer Einheit, Wirtschaftsgemeinschaft und von geschlechtlicher Arbeitsteilung, wie sie bis in das 21. Jahrhundert hinein wirksam geblieben ist.- Shop: buecher

Joseph Bazalgette: A Life from Beginning to End , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 69min
One man has probably done more good and saved more lives than any single public official of the Victorian era. The man being described was an engineer, city planner, bridge builder, and landscape architect; his name was Sir Joseph Bazalgette. Probably best remembered as the man who designed the London sewer network, he almost single-handedly eliminated virulent epidemics and changed the River Thames from an open sewer into one of the cleanest urban rivers in the world. He also transformed the face of London forever.From this audiobook you will learn about:Early YearsThe Big StinkBazalgette’s PlanThe EmbankmentsBridges across the ThamesAnd much more ungekürzt.

Schlafende Hunde VII
Die nunmehr siebte Anthologie mit politischer Lyrik versammelt 57 Autorinnen und Autoren aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum. Bei allen Texten handelt es sich um Erstveröffentlichungen, denn darauf besteht der Herausgeber Thomas Bachmann immer: Sie müssen nicht nur gut, sondern auch aktuell sein. Naturgemäß spielen darum die Corona-Pandemie und die Konsequenzen diesmal eine Rolle, nicht überbordend, aber durchaus wahrnehmbar. Die Beschränkung hat einen Grund: Das Leben geht trotz des Virus weiter, die politischen Konflikte sind unverändert virulent, die gesellschaftlichen Gräben nicht verschwunden. Die Pandemie hat sie sichtbar gemacht. Die Krise im Gesundheitswesen, zum Beispiel, bestand schon vorher, dass die Hospitäler kaputtgespart wurden, merkte man erst jetzt. Die gesellschaftlichen Befunde der hier vertretenen Autorinnen und Autoren sind bemerkenswert klar und unmissverständlich.- Shop: buecher

Harry , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 445min
A rusted, dented, dirty-white Toyota passes under a streetlight in a small town in Southern Oregon. A hulk of a man exits, leans on a cane, and walks crab-like down the sidewalk toward Ted Whitaker. It's Harry, Ted's best friend from the 60s, a man he hasn't seen in thirty years. Surely this meeting isn't mere coincidence, so what does Harry want with Ted? Ted soon discovers that Harry, once an extreme radical, has become an eco-anarchist and terrorist. He has come to recruit Ted to join his plot to release a virulent form of smallpox with no known antidote. There's no chance of that happening, so it's up to Ted to stop Harry. ungekürzt.
