John Lennon‘s now well-known maternal half-sister Julia Baird joined forces with famous author Geoffrey Giuliano in the early 1980s to write a riveting book on her life and times on the famous Beatle. With a stirring, revealing introduction by close friend Paul McCartney, it was an immediate, internationally best-selling smash! The sometimes rocky relationship between Mrs. Baird and Mr. Giuliano, however, makes for an exciting, behind the scenes inside story.

Nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs verkörpern vier Philosoph:innen die Suche nach einem neuen Menschenbild und einer neuen Aufklärung: Theodor W. Adorno, Susan Sontag, Michel Foucault und Paul K. Feyerabend. Mit dem Ziel, die Welt besser zu verstehen und der lebensweltlichen Enge zu entfliehen, gehen sie zwischen Frankfurt, Paris, London, Berkeley und New York neue Wege, die direkt zu den großen Bruchlinien unserer Gegenwart führen. Wolfram Eilenberger legt erneut ein erzählerisches Meisterwerk vor, das Geschichte und Philosophie auf einzigartige Weise verbindet.

L'Africa ha tolto moltissimo a Kuki Gallmann. Ma le ha anche dato molto. Forse proprio per questo lei in Africa è rimasta. La sua vita, oggi, è la vita della Fondazione Gallmann, creata per ricordare Paolo ed Emanuele. Un atto d'amore che lega il passato al futuro. Che è diventato una promessa di salvezza per la natura e gli animali in pericolo.

In October of 1949, a few months after publication of George Orwell‘s masterpiece, Nineteen Eighty-Four, he received a letter from fellow author Aldous Huxley, a man who, 17 years previous, had seen his own nightmarish vision of society published in the form of the classic, Brave New World. What begins as a letter of praise soon becomes a brief comparison of the two novels, and an explanation as to why Huxley believes his own earlier work to be a more realistic prediction

This audiobook arose from a conversation between Hugh Cameron, an orthopedic surgeon, and Edna Quammie, an OR nurse, reminiscing about their shared memories. It was proposed at a dinner meeting of the Dinosaur Club, a group of doctors and nurses and technicians who worked in the operating room in Toronto General Hospital in the 70s and 80s. It tells of the thrills and spills - sometimes funny, sometimes sad - about life in the OR at that time which followed Woodstock, which, in a sense, changed a North American generation.

Under en väldigt kort period under sommaren 1982 blir ett flertal äldre damer överfallna, misshandlade, och rånade i sina egna hem i Stockholm. Gärningsmannen går till väga på samma sätt varje gång, han gömmer sig och följer efter damerna in i lägenheten efter att de varit ute. Han vill att de ska visa honom vart pengarna finns, men innan de hinner svara blir de slagna och inlåsta i en garderob som kväver deras skrik. Flera brott anmäls till polisen, och damerna som rånats återfinns vid liv, om än illa tilltygade.

Den 11 juni 1982 på förmiddagen kontaktade en läkare på intensivvårdsavdelningen, Sahlgrenska sjukhuset, den så kallade våldsspaningsgruppen i Göteborgs polisdistrikt och berättade att en 58-årig kvinna införts till sjukhuset den 9 juni med tecken på en svår förgiftning. Läkaren meddelade också att kvinnans make införts två dagar senare med liknande symptom som sin hustru. Kvinnan var enligt läkaren döende. Hon hade drabbats av en nästan total förlamning och blivit medvetslös strax efter det hon kommit in på sjukhuset.
