"An insider traces the details of hope and ambition gone wrong in the Giant of Africa, Nigeria, Africa's most populous country. When it gained independence from Britain in 1960, hopes were high that, with mineral wealth and over 140 million people, the most educated workforce in Africa, Nigeria would become Africa s first superpower and a stabilizing democratic influence in the region. However, these lofty hopes were soon dashed and the country lumbered from crisis to crisis, with the democratic government eventually being overthrown in a violent military coup in January 1966. From 1966 until 1999, the army held onto power almost uninterrupted under a succession of increasingly authoritarian military governments and army coups. Military coups and military rule (which began as an emergency aberration) became a seemingly permanent feature of Nigerian politics. The author names names, and explores how British influence aggravated indigenous rivalries. He shows how various faction...

English summary: The history of the sciences: physics, chemistry, mathematics, astronomy, biology, and medicine! This volume presents the labyrinthine ways in which the modern sciences have developed from the past until today, taking the reader on an exciting and informative journey . In 585 B.C., Thales of Milet was to have predicted a solar eclipse - a momentous moment in astronomy. But the Greeks took over a large amount of knowledge of natural sciences from Egypt and Babylon. In the Middle Ages, this knowledge was further refined in the Arab world, until, in the 16th century, Europe again became interested in natural sciences. In the volume accompanying the exhibition "Ex oriente lux?," experts from different subjects are our guides through the exciting history of knowledge and sciences. Exceptional exhibits, precious manuscripts, and models take us on a fascinating voyage that not only manages to link Antiquity and the modern world, but also East and West. German text. G...

With detailed recipes for ferments, infusions, spices, and other preparations Wild foods are increasingly popular, as evidenced by the number of new books about identifying plants and foraging ingredients, as well as those written by chefs about culinary creations that incorporate wild ingredients (Noma, Faviken, Quay, Manreza, et al.). The New Wildcrafted Cuisine, however, goes well beyond both of these genres to deeply explore the flavors of local terroir, combining the research and knowledge of plants and landscape that chefs often lack with the fascinating and innovative techniques of a master food preserver and self-described "culinary alchemist." Author Pascal Baudar views his home terrain of southern California (mountain, desert, chaparral, and seashore) as a culinary playground, full of wild plants and other edible and delicious foods (even insects) that once were gathered and used by native peoples but that have only recently begun to be re-explored and appreciated. ...

Do you feel stuck in your life? Do you wonder why? Does something seem wrong, but you can't put your finger on it? In The Lies We Tell Ourselves, psychotherapist Jon Frederickson reveals the ways we fool ourselves and how to get unstuck. Through dozens of stories and examples, he demonstrates that the apparent cause of our problems is almost never the real cause. In addition, he reveals what we really fear and how to face it. In the spirit of Stephen Grosz and Irving Yalom, Frederickson shows how to recognize the lies we tell ourselves and face the truths we have avoided--and stop saying yes when we really mean no. Although we may use falsehoods to escape pain, clinging to our fantasies actually becomes the source of greater suffering. This book shows how to create a better life by letting go of our lies and facing reality. It also demonstrates that therapy is not merely a chat; it is a relationship between two people devoted to facing the deepest truths of o...

Die Autoren interviewten Zeitzeugen und recherchierten in Archiven über dieses erste Leben der Angela Merkel. Sie belegen, dass die Bundeskanzlerin in ihren politischen Ehrgeiz nicht erst im Zuge der Wende entdeckte. Als Angehörige der sowjetisch geprägten Wissenschaftselite des SED-Staates war sie zielbewusst und system-konform. Unter dem Eindruck von Gorbatschows Glasnost und Perestroika trat sie dann als Reformkommunistin für einen demokratischen Sozialismus in einer eigenständigen DDR ein. Und doch war sie nur fünfzehn Monate nach dem Mauerfall Bundesministerin im wiedervereinigten kapitalistischen Deutschland. Ralf Georg Reuth und Günter Lachmann zeigen, wie dieses erste Leben ihr zweites als CDU-Vorsitzende und Bundeskanzlerin mitbestimmt, bis heute. Product details Format Hardback ...
