Thin Ice
Thin Ice By: Frieda Korobkin The vicar says: I can assure you there are many young people like yourself in Europe today who have no idea that they are Jewish. Megan Rhys’s dilemma is one of the lingering aftermaths of the Holocaust. Will she embrace her newly discovered Jewish roots, or remain a faithful, church-going Christian? Thin Ice takes us from Nazi Germany in the mid 1930’s and the Nuremberg Laws, to post-war Wales in the 1950’s, with a romantic detour to Israel on the brink of the 1956 war. Praise for Frieda Korobkin’s Throw Your Feet Over Your Shoulders; Beyond the Kindertransport “This is a poignant, compelling, unsparing account of pivotal events in Jewish history filtered through the uncompromising but tender-hearted perspective of an insightful, perceptive young girl. Beautifully written and compulsively readable, this is an important book.” -Jonathan Kellerman, Author of the Alex Delaware novels.
Escape from Berlin
Good-bye Marianne - As autumn turns toward winter in 1938 Berlin, life for Marianne Kohn, a young Jewish girl, begins to crumble. First there was the burning of the neighborhood shops. Then her father, a bookseller, must leave the family and go into hiding. No longer allowed to go to school or even sit in a café, Marianne's only comfort is her beloved mother. Remember Me - Young Marianne is one of the lucky ones. She has escaped on the first Kindertransport organized to take Jewish children out of Germany to safety in Britain.

Der Architekt Paul Schneider-Esleben
Heinrich Klotz bezeichnete die Architektur des Paul Schneider-Esleben in ihrer Reflexhaftigkeit gegenüber der jeweiligen Zeitsituation als eine Geschichte der Architektur im kleinen. Mit seiner Anfang der fünfziger Jahre schnell weltweit gerühmten gläsernen Hochgarage in Düsseldorf knüpfte der junge Architekt an die 1933 aus Deutschland vertriebene Moderne an. Das 1955–1958 entstandene Mannesmann-Hochhaus in Düsseldorf zog die Lehren aus Mies van der Rohes Tätigkeit im amerikanischen Exil und schuf den deutschen Prototyp des gläsernen Hochhauses. Auch im Einfamilienhausbau und im Schul- und Kirchenbau setzte Schneider-Esleben in den fünfziger Jahren Maßstäbe. In den Sechzigern wandte er sich dem Brutalismus zu, experimentierte mit neuen Techniken und entwickelte in Köln-Wahn den ersten funktionell befriedigenden Flughafen in Europa, Vorbild für viele spätere Anlagen. In der hier von Rolf Beckers vorgelegten Monographie über das Multitalent Schneider-Esleben wird versucht, die These von Heinrich Klotz durch eine Einbettung in seine Zeit zu stützen. Diss. Bonn 1995.
Community Series in Translational Insights into Mechanisms and Therapy of Organ Dysfunction in Sepsis and Trauma, volume III
Life-threatening organ dysfunction/failure in critically ill patients suffering from sepsis or trauma is caused by a dysregulated host response to infection and/or inflammation. Despite significant advances in our understanding of some of the key signaling pathways involved in the excessive inflammation associated with sepsis/trauma, the translation of our current understanding of the underlying pathophysiology into organ-protective therapeutic strategies is still very limited. Current therapeutic approaches, hence, continue to rely on source control, antibiotics and supportive care, and particularly early goal-directed therapy.
