Als im Jahre 1710 weit vor den Toren der Stadt Berlin ein Pestlazarett errichtet wurde, konnte niemand ahnen, dass hieraus im Lauf der kommenden drei Jahrhunderte ein Weltzentrum der Medizin entstehen würde. Die bald als Armenkrankenhaus genutzte Einrichtung war schnell überfüllt, die Geldnot chronisch, die baulichen Verhältnisse mehr als schlecht, und die Behandlung der Kranken lag in der Hand von abkommandierten Militärchirurgen, die in der Regel nicht Medizin studiert, sondern nur ihr Handwerk erlernt hatten. Am Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts behaupteten Spötter nicht ohne Grund, dass die Charité in Berlin das leiste, wofür man in anderen Ländern der Erfindung des Herrn Guilottin bedürfe. Weitere hundert Jahre später war die Charité eines der begehrtesten Reiseziele der Ärzte aus aller Welt. Man kam nach Berlin nicht nur, um die berühmten theoretischen Institute der Universität oder die Universitätsklinika der Fakultät kennen zu lernen. Auch die Charité war inzwischen ein Hort der klinis

Das Buch der Schöpfung entstand im frühen Mittelalter und stellt die erste systematische Zusammenfassung kosmologischer Spekulationen auf der Basis einer ausgeprägten Buchstaben- und Zahlenmystik in hebräischer Sprache dar. Es beschreibt den Aufbau der Welt aus den "32 verborgenen Pfaden der Weisheit", die sich aus den 10 Sefirot, den Urzahlen oder Potenzen, und den 22 Buchstaben des hebräischen Alphabets zusammensetzen. Entsprechend der antiken Vorstellung vom Makro- und Mikrokosmos werden bestimmte Buchstabengruppen auf den Raum, auf die Zeit und auf die menschliche Welt bezogen. Die Betonung der Dimensionen des Raumes und der Zeit erinnert an neuzeitliche Theorien über die Entstehung des Kosmos, wobei für den Autor des Sefer Jezira zudem der ethische Aspekt des Schöpfungswerkes (Gut und Böse, Unschuld und Schuld) wichtig ist. Die theologische Mitte des Buches ist das Bekenntnis zur "Einheit in Vielheit"; die Vielgestaltigkeit des Universums hängt letztlich an dem

This innovative work demystifies the Japanese economy by considering it as a strategic system. Showing how the Japanese "miracleaEURO is actively planned, directed, and implemented by a constellation of institutions, government policymakers, and big business, Huber argues that Japan, Inc., can best be compared to a modern military system rather than exclusively to a free-market economy. The author highlights particularly the similarity between Japan's strategic economy and some of the structures and policy dynamics of the U.S. military and shows how Japans economic strategies have the capability of adversely affecting its trading partners.

In Trauma and the Soul, Donald Kalsched continues the exploration he began in his first book, The Inner World of Trauma (1996)-this time going further into the mystical or spiritual moments that often occur around the intimacies of psychoanalytic work. Through extended clinical vignettes, including therapeutic dialogue and dreams, he shows how depth psychotherapy with trauma's survivors can open both analytic partners to "another world" of non-ordinary reality in which daimonic powers reside, both light and dark. This mytho-poetic world, he suggests, is not simply a defensive product of our struggle with the harsh realities of living as Freud suggested, but is an everlasting fact of human experience-a mystery that is often at the very center of the healing process, and yet at other times, strangely resists it. With these "two worlds" in focus, Kalsched explores a variety of themes as he builds, chapter by chapter, an integrated psycho-spiritual approach to traum

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. An essential exploration of women's sexuality that will radically transform your sex life into one filled with confidence and joy. After all the books that have been written about sex, all the blogs and TV shows and radio Q&As, how can it be that we all still have so many questions? The frustrating reality is that we've been lied to - not deliberately, it's no one's fault, but still. We were told the wrong story. Come as You Are reveals the true story behind female sexuality, uncovering the little-known science of what makes us tick and, more importantly, how and why. Sex educator Dr Emily Nagoski debunks the common sexual myths that are making women (and some men!) feel inadequate between the sheets. Underlying almost all of the questions we still have about sex is the common worry: 'Am I normal?' This book answers with a resounding Yes! We are all different, but we are all normal - and once we learn this, we can create for ours

Whittaker Chambers and Elizabeth Bentley shocked America in 1948 with their allegations that Communist spies had penetrated the American government. The resulting perjury trial of Alger Hiss is already legendary, but Chambers and Bentley also named Harry Dexter White, a high-ranking Treasury official. (Hiss himself thought that White had been the real target of the House Un-American Activities Committee.) When White died only a week after his bold defense before Congress, much speculation remained about the cause of his death and the truth of the charges made against him. Armed with a wealth of new information, Bruce Craig examines this controversial case and explores the ambiguities that have haunted it for more than half a century. The highest ranking figure in the Roosevelt and Truman administrations to be accused of espionage, White played a central role in the founding of the United Nations' twin financial institutions, the World Bank and International Monetary Fund.

Twenty years ago, this writer penned his opinion relative to the ongoing conflicts that appear to exist between the sexes. For many reasons, one being the absence of follow-through, this view, which covers many of the thoughts, actions, misunderstandings, and disappointments experienced by a male between the ages of six and twenty-one, rested in a box of old pictures and reports of various subjects that at one point in time were of interest depending on the cultural climate.
