        Greta Thunberg
        January 2021

        Greta Thunberg

        Climate Change Activist

        by Jon Sterngass

        In August 2018, 15-year-old Swedish student Greta Thunberg decided not to go to school in order to protest the climate crisis, and demand government action to prevent global warming. Her school strike sparked a global movement, inspiring millions of students to strike. Before she was 18 years old, Greta had participated in protests in Europe and North America, created a TED talk viewed more than 10 million times, and addressed the United Nations, the U.S. Congress, the British Parliament, and the World Economic Forum. In 2019, she was named Time magazine's person of the year, the youngest person ever to receive this recognition. This is her story.

        IT’S OUR FUTURE

        THE YOUNG FEMALE REBELS CHANGING OUR WORLD

        by Bettina Weiguny

        Greta Thunberg is not alone: there is now a worldwide movement. Young female rebels are taking to the world stage. They are campaigning for clean drinking water, opposing the gun lobby, mobilising against child marriage and child labour. In order to achieve their goals, they are speaking at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, at the Economic Forum in Davos, at climate conferences or at the "March for Our Lives" in Washington. Their influence is immense; a single speech can shake global corporations such as Siemens. Behind the young activists, just a Tweet away, stands a whole generation. The book introduces the key players, for example Emma González and the Indonesian sisters, 10 and 12 years old, who managed to bring about the prohibition of single use plastic on Bali, but it also follows up the fundamental issues: who brings them out onto the streets, what motivates them?

        Why science denial is so dangerous and how we can protect ourselves against it

        by Holm Gero Hümmler

        The phenomenon of anti-scientific disinformation has been discussed in the recent past under the acronym FLICC (Fake experts, Logical fallacies, Impossible expectations, Cherry-picking and Conspiracy theories), especially as it pertains to the topic of climate change. What is generally missing however is a more comprehensive consideration of science denial in diff erent disciplines with a critical examination of the central arguments and a comparison of the parallels. Holm Gero Hümmler dedicates himself to this task in this readable and fact-orientated book on topics such as genetic engineering, mobile phone networks, radioactivity, and chips that are implanted under the skin for medical reasons.

        Conspiracy Myths

        How we are deceived by twisted facts

        by Holm Gero Hümmler

        The twin towers of the World Trade Center were blown up on behalf of the US government. Vapour trails in the sky contain chemicals that cause disease. The moon landing never took place; it was staged in a studio. Many people believe in conspiracy theories: supporting evidence can seem plausible, until you look closely. To refute conspiracy theories often requires scientific and technical knowledge. Dr. Holm Gero Hümmler has precisely this sort of knowledge, and he is able to communicate it clearly for laypeople. In his book “Conspiracy Myths” he provides guidelines on how to deal with questionable facts. He gives valuable tips for personal research and shows how to deconstruct well-known conspiracy theories – from 9-11 to the “earthquake machine” HAARP, to chemtrails and “Nazi UFOs”. Sometimes, refutation is easy: you only need a sand pit and game pieces ...

        Greta’s Voice

        by Ged Umlimi / Amelina Jones

        Very few people had the courage and the chance to change the course of events in history. Ghandi was one of them. Rosa Parks was another. But for the first time, a teenager stood up. Greta Thunberg started with small steps, sitting in front of the Swedish Parliament and later skipping schools on every Friday in order to demand action on climate crisis. In time, she inspired millions of young people and adults around the world to take to the streets to demand the same. Greta’s Voice is the real story of the 16-year-old climate activist, a story that will give hope to people of all ages and prove to children that they don’t need to wait becoming a grown up to make a difference. Greta’s is a story of persistence and inspiration, a wake up call for us all. We hope we will stop the climate crisis altogether

        by Jana Hoch

        His world is that of the Royals – full of scandals and secrets. Falling in love with him was never part of her plan. Their paths cross at the royal stud farm... Greta just wants to get away: away from her school and away from the friends who have so endlessly disappointed her. The holiday job at the royal stud farm comes at just the right time for her. She might not have any interest in horses – and even less in princes and princesses – but the royal family’s palace still makes her heart beat faster. But on the very first day she quarrels with Edward, the horse trainer. He guesses that she is hiding a secret and wants to do whatever it takes to bring it out in the open. When, shortly afterwards, Prince Tristan appears at the stud farm, Greta’s life is completely turned upside down. She notices all too late that she is in the process of falling in love – and specifically with the boy that she actually wants to stay away from. Humorous and romantic, glamorous and exciting: ‘Royal Horses’ is the perfect love story for all readers from 12 to 99 years-old. Greta and Edward‘s story continues! Volume 2, ‘Crown Dream’ will be out in autumn 2020.

        WHEN LIFE WAS GOOD AGAIN

        by Kerstin Sgonina

        Hamburg, 1954: Greta Bergström has spent almost her entire life with her grandmother in Stockholm. Now she stands in front of a run-down house in St. Pauli, where her father lives with his new family. He greets his daughter icily, and in buttoned-up Hamburg Greta searches in vain for a job as a beautician. Until she meets Marieke, who does her neighbours' hair in the prefab barracks on the outskirts of the city. Together they decide to tour the city in a mobile beauty shop – with great success.  After the dark years of the war, women want to look pretty again. Marieke does hair, Greta cosmetics, and Trixie, the third in the group, gives fashion advice. Suddenly Greta's life is so brightly eventful, she almost forgets the reason for her return to Hamburg: to find out what had happened to her mother, who had disappeared without a trace during the war.

        Amelie Trott and the Earth Watchers

        by Moyra Irving

        This is the extraordinary story of how one small girl stopped a planetary catastrophe. It’s a very timely book, written for the child in us all, with a forceful message about the power of young people to transform the world - a theme currently demonstrated by brave young heroes like Greta Thunberg. And with magical synchronicity, the very week Greta began her lone vigil outside the Swedish government last year, over 1,000 miles (1,897 km) away in the fictional world of books, Amelie Trott took to Parliament Square, London - on a mission to avert the End of the World. It’s a family drama with an international feel - set mainly in England but with episodes in Washington DC and around the world.

        The BBC and popular television culture in the 1950s

        by Su Holmes

        Entertaining television challenges the idea that the BBC in the 1950s was elitist and 'staid', upholding Reithian values in a paternalistic, even patronising way. By focusing on a number of (often controversial) programme case studies - such as the soap opera, the quiz/ game show, the 'problem' show and programmes dealing with celebrity culture - Su Holmes demonstrates how BBC television surprisingly explored popular interests and desires. She also uncovers a number of remarkable connections with programmes and topics at the forefront of television today, ranging from talk shows, 'Reality TV', even to our contemporary obsession with celebrity. The book is iconclastic, percipient and grounded in archival research, and will be of use to anyone studying television history. ;

        Terrorism and democratic stability revisited

        by Jennifer S. Holmes

        Can terrorism and state violence cause democratic breakdown? Although the origins of violence have been studied, only rarely are its consequences examined. In this detailed comparative study of Uruguay, Spain, and Peru, Holmes claims that to understand the consequences of violence on democratic stability, terrorism and state responses to terrorism must be studied together. This extensively revised and expanded second edition takes advantage of new historical sources, an extended time span, and new theories that have emerged since the original publication. In addition to adding new data sources in the Peruvian and Spanish cases, the time period covered has been expanded from the late 1990s to early 2007, allowing a more comprehensive treatment of the consequences of state and non-state violence on democratic stability and the prospects for stability. The literature reviews have been significantly revised and updated and an entirely new chapter covers the special case of Spain, which faces both a domestic and an international threat. ;

        Sherlock Holmes in Rio

        Roman

        by Jô Soares, Karin Schweder-Schreiner

        Rio de Janeiro, Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts. Zunächst ist nur die kostbare Stradivari verschwunden, die Kaiser Dom Pedro seiner Geliebten geschenkt hat – ein peinliches Malheur, nicht mehr. Um das wertvolle Stück wiederzubekommen, empfiehlt Schauspielerin Sarah Bernhardt, die gerade ein glänzendes Gastspiel in Rio gibt, ihren Freund Sherlock Holmes. Kein großes Problem für einen Detektiv seines Kalibers ... In Brasilien angekommen, stürzen sich Sherlock Holmes und Dr. Watson sogleich in die Lustbarkeiten der Belle Époque und erleben die sinnlichen Freuden der Tropen am eigenen britischen Leib. Was den Meisterdetektiv nicht daran hindert, sich vor den Einheimischen und Normalsterblichen mit seiner verblüffenden Kombinationsgabe zu brüsten. Als in den Straßen Rios aber ein Serienmörder umgeht, wird auch ihm die Einsicht beschert, dass südlich des Äquators begangene Verbrechen nicht mit einem »Ganz einfach, Watson« zu lösen sind … »Sherlock Holmes in Rio« ist ein schwungvoller und fesselnder Roman, mindestens so sehr satirische Gesellschaftskomödie wie konventioneller Krimi – »ein prickelndes Divertimento, das keine weiteren Ansprüche erhebt.« (Neue Zürcher Zeitung)
