Killer High

A History of War in Six Drugs

By: Peter Andreas

In Killer High, Peter Andreas tells the story of war from antiquity to the modern age through the lens of six psychoactive drugs: alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, opium, amphetamines, and cocaine. Armed conflict has become progressively more "drugged" with the global spread of these mind-altering substances. From ancient brews and battles to meth and modern warfare, drugs and war have grown up together and become addicted to each other. By looking back not just years and decades but centuries, Andreas reveals that the drugs-conflict nexus is actually an old story, and that powerful states have been its biggest beneficiaries.

Timeless Secrets of Health and Rejuvenation

By: Andreas Moritz

What actually causes disease? The answer might be surprising. In this new edition of his best-selling book The Key to Health and Rejuvenation, Andreas Moritz reveals the most common but rarely recognized reasons responsible for illness and aging and how to achieve continuous vibrant health. Andreas puts the responsibility of basic health care back into the hands of the individual. He states, "Healing occurs effortlessly and naturally once the conditions that are required for the body to return to its most natural state - balance and efficiency - have been met." The basic theme is the relative ease involved in creating good health. While physicians attempt to combat or subdue illness, they "know very little about employing the mind and body to actually heal a person." The book includes a complete self-help program, part of which is derived from the ancient medical system of Ayurveda. In addition, this book is packed with useful information on all major health issues and effective methods of cleansing the blood, liver and gallbladder, intestines, kidneys, blood vessels, lymphatic system and body tissues. The nearly 500 pages, divided into 15 chapters, explain everything about the mystery of mind and body, the laws of health and illness, the risk factors of common diseases, the diagnostic parameters, the most common causes of disease and how to remove them, the basic misconceptions people and doctors have about health and wellness, and the journey to lifelong health and spiritual happiness. Neither conventional nor alternative forms of medicine provide the population with the basic, practical steps to remove the root causes of illness and use practical measures of health promotion as aprimary approach of treatment. Timeless Secrets of Health and Rejuvenation fills this gap by showing you how to employ your body's own healing powers to bring balance and harmony into all aspects of your life. Overall, this book is the bible of good health, happiness and rejuvenation for those who long for a balanced lifestyle.

Contemporary Issues in Marketing and Consumer Behaviour

By: Elizabeth Parsons,Pauline Maclaran,Andreas Chatzidakis,Rachel Ashman

This third edition of Contemporary Issues in Marketing and Consumer Behaviour has been revised and updated to reflect the fast-changing world we live in. The new state of the art chapter on digital marketing digs deeply into two new frontiers of marketing which have significant impact on contemporary social life: influencer marketing, and online gaming.

Topics new to this edition include: Digital Markets and Marketing Hierarchies of Knowledge in Marketing Marketing Inequalities: Feminisms and intersectionalities The Ethics and Politics of Consumption New case studies include: Emerging Economy Brands The Fairtrade Brand Disappearing Influencers Decolonising the Media Written by four experts in the field, this popular text successfully links marketing theory with practice, locating marketing ideas and applications within wider global, social and economic contexts. It provides a complete and thought-provoking overview for postgraduate, MBA and advanced undergraduate modules in marketing and consumer behaviour and a useful resource for dissertation study at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Adjunct Islands in English

Theoretical Perspectives and Experimental Evidence

By: Andreas Kehl

Island phenomena are a central topic in generative grammar, especially because of principled exceptions to these general extraction constraints. This volume investigates exceptional extractions from phrasal adjunct islands. It argues, based on experimental studies, that several factors identified in the previous literature are uninformative about locality conditions because they show effects in both extraction and non-extraction sentence forms. The volume develops a multifactorial model to account for these effects without appealing to universal extraction conditions and argues that the relative acceptability of the underlying proposition determines acceptability across sentence types.

The Unreformed Martin Luther

A Serious (and Not So Serious) Look at the Man Behind the Myths

By: Andreas Malessa

Will the real Martin Luther please stand up? After five hundred years of examining the life of the “father of the Reformation,” we must surely know all there is to know about Martin Luther. But is that true? Did he really nail his Ninety-Five Theses to the church door? Did he throw an inkpot at the devil? Did he plant an apple tree? Did his wife escape her convent in a herring barrel? German radio and television journalist Andreas Malessa looks at the actual history of Luther and concludes that many of the tales we know best are nothing but nonsense. Diving gleefully into the research, Malessa investigates many of the falsehoods and fallacies surrounding the reformer, rejecting them in favor of equally incredible facts. Full of humor and irony, this book educates and entertains while demonstrating a profound respect for Luther's life and mission.If you're looking for the truth of the man behind the theses, come discover his faith and influence--with the myths stripped away.

The Room

By: Andreas Maier

Knausgaard meets East Germany in a brilliantly ironic memoir-cum-novel Uncle J was a forceps delivery, which explains why he is not really all there. Still a child in many ways, he has grown older all the same. Now he is madly in love, with a Volkswagen Type 3 Variant. He is a man with no sense of history and little attachment to the real world, other than an armchair enthusiasm for mountain climbing, a passion for Wehrmacht tanks, and a keen interest in Frankfurt’s prostitutes. Uncle J is a person to whom the concept of guilt just does not apply. He doesn’t grasp at life’s chances, because he can’t. Meanwhile, the world around him seems mysteriously and unerringly busy. But to what end? The Room is a dazzling fictional meditation on Andreas Maier’s family, the cruel absurdities of small-town life, and the euphoria that surrounded ‘progress’ in the 1960s. It is also a stirring exploration of Germany in the post-war years, a reflection on time and civilisation, and on human dignity and how it can be preserved. Andreas Maier was born near Frankfurt in 1967. In addition to winning the Ernst Willner Prize at the Ingeborg Bachmann Literary Competition in 2000, he received the Jürgen Ponto Foundation’s Literary Support Prize and the Aspekte Literary Prize for his first novel Wäldchestag. ‘As diabolical and sublime as one can imagine a writer to be’ Journal Frankfurt ‘Anyone interested in literature ... knows that Andreas Maier is one of the most remarkable German language authors’ Wiener Zeitung ‘A masterpiece of keen observation and the small miracle’ Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

Craft Coffee

A Manual

By: Jessica Easto,Andreas Willhoff

“Build a better brew by mastering 10 manual methods, from French Press to Chemex, with this comprehensive guide.” —Imbibe Magazine Named a top food & drink book of 2017 by Food Network, Wired, Sprudge, and Booklist This comprehensive but accessible handbook is for the average coffee lover who wants to make better coffee at home. Unlike other coffee books, this one focuses exclusively on coffee—not espresso—and explores multiple pour-over, immersion, and cold-brew techniques on 10 different devices. Thanks to a small but growing number of dedicated farmers, importers, roasters, and baristas, coffee quality is at an all-time high. But for nonprofessionals, achieving café quality at home can seem out of reach. With dozens of equipment options, conflicting information on how to use that equipment, and an industry language that, at times, doesn’t seem made for the rest of us, it can be difficult to know where to begin. Craft Coffee: A Manual, written by a coffee enthusiast for coffee enthusiasts, provides all the information readers need to discover what they like in a cup of specialty coffee—and how to replicate the perfect cup day after day. From the science of extraction and brewing techniques to choosing equipment and deciphering coffee bags, Craft Coffee focuses on the issues—cost, time, taste, and accessibility—that home coffee brewers negotiate and shows that no matter where you are in your coffee journey, you can make a great cup at home. “Engaging and fun . . . I really can’t recommend Craft Coffee: A Manual enough. If you’re even mildly curious about brewing coffee at home, it’s absolutely worth a read.” —BuzzFeed

Evolution of the Creation and Soul

By: Andreas Wolf von Guggenberger

In his work "Evolution of Creation and the Soul", Andreas, Wolf von Guggenberger, describes a fascinating creation myth and presents a new ethic for our time. His original vision of the origin and genesis of creation combines scientific and spiritual theories with a deeply felt religious vision to create a stirring synthesis. In it he describes: - How souls might have come into being with their levels of perception. How they communicate. - How in the ADAMEBENE - in the heavens, the basic concepts for the universe and man evolved. - A new perspective on the Adam-Eve myth. - The origin of the universe with the evolution of human beings. - He expands the concept of evolution by distinguishing between a spiritual evolution of consciousness and a material evolution of the universe. Spiritual and material interpenetrate and mutually evolve. - How fate, mental predispositions, the will and chance create each other. With 154 principles of creation, he describes a continuous evolution of soul and creation. He shows how these principles manifest themselves simultaneously in the everyday perception of man. His work has emerged from introspection, research and a journey of realization. He draws from his own visions, which is why his concepts differ from those of other philosophers and religious thinkers.

Smuggler Nation

How Illicit Trade Made America

By: Peter Andreas

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Smuggler Nation

How Illicit Trade Made America

By: Peter Andreas

America is a smuggler nation. Our long history of illicit imports has ranged from West Indies molasses and Dutch gunpowder in the 18th century, to British industrial technologies and African slaves in the 19th century, to French condoms and Canadian booze in the early 20th century, to Mexican workers and Colombian cocaine in the modern era. Contraband capitalism, it turns out, has been an integral part of American capitalism. Providing a sweeping narrative history from colonial times to the present, Smuggler Nation is the first book to retell the story of America--and of its engagement with its neighbors and the rest of the world--as a series of highly contentious battles over clandestine commerce. As Peter Andreas demonstrates in this provocative and fascinating account, smuggling has played a pivotal and too often overlooked role in America's birth, westward expansion, and economic development, while anti-smuggling campaigns have dramatically enhanced the federal government's policing powers. The great irony, Andreas tells us, is that a country that was born and grew up through smuggling is today the world's leading anti-smuggling crusader. In tracing America's long and often tortuous relationship with the murky underworld of smuggling, Andreas provides a much-needed antidote to today's hyperbolic depictions of out-of-control borders and growing global crime threats. Urgent calls by politicians and pundits to regain control of the nation's borders suffer from a severe case of historical amnesia, nostalgically implying that they were ever actually under control. This is pure mythology, says Andreas. For better and for worse, America's borders have always been highly porous. Far from being a new and unprecedented danger to America, the illicit underside of globalization is actually an old American tradition. As Andreas shows, it goes back not just decades but centuries. And its impact has been decidedly double-edged, not only subverting U.S. laws but also helping to fuel America's evolution from a remote British colony to the world's pre-eminent superpower.

Soils of Tropical Forest Ecosystems

Characteristics, Ecology and Management

By: Andreas Schulte

An understanding of the characteristics and the ecology of soils, particularly those of forest ecosystems in the humid tropics, is central to the development of sustainable forest management systems. The present book examines the contribution that forest soil science and forest ecology can make to sustainable land use in the humid tropics. Four main issues are addressed: characteristics and classification of forest soils, chemical and hydrological changes after forest utilization, soil fertility management in forest plantations and agroforestry systems as well as ecosystem studies from the dipterocarp forest region of Southeast Asia. Additionally, case studies include work from Guyana, Costa Rica, the Philippines, Malaysia, Australia and Nigeria. The papers have been developed from presentations given at the "International Congress on Soils of Tropical Forest Ecosystems/3rd Conference on Forest Soils" held in Balikpapan, Indonesia, and will be indispensable for all concerned with forest soil science and sustainable forestry in the humid tropics.

Which of the Europe's Beer Markets offers the highest unrealised Market Potential?

Market potential analysis of the European Beer Market in order to recommend a foreign market entry strategy for the fictive company OBUL

By: Endrik Hasemann,Andreas Spors

Master's Thesis from the year 2004 in the subject Business economics - General, grade: Distinction (75 - 85%), University of Western Sydney, course: Master’s Project in International Business, language: English, abstract: The overview of the whole process that enabled us to suggest the final candidate country for the future business expansion in Europe presents steps that our consulting team had to take in order to present the best possible option. According to our consulting team, Germany presents the strongest advantages for OBUL and should be chosen as the ideal for the business operation and also the base for the further European expansion. Thanks to the highest size of population in Europe and its overall wealthy condition from the very beginning of our analysis Germany became one of the possible final candidates. However, during the whole process of defining attractiveness of individual markets, several other countries also presented strong advantages for the future investment. The strongest advantages were shown by Spain and Italy which presented nearly the same result in the evaluating process than Germany did. In the final stage of the analysis Germany was selected form the group of four strongest European candidates. These were also Ireland, Italy and Spain. All of the candidate countries presented very strong and attractive beer markets in terms of beer and alcohol consumption as well as the GNI PPP income per capita. Moreover, the analysis of the infrastructure, legal and political environment also proved that these countries were the top four; amongst all of the candidate countries that were analyzed at the beginning of the selection process (42 countries took part in the first step of the selection, 27 in the second). Germany proved to be the best possible choice for the future business expansion in Europe. The analysis showed that the German market was more attractive for OBUL in three main areas of operation: market viability, commercial viability and technical feasibility. The analysis of the market viability as the most important area for a market entry showed, that the German beer market was very attractive in terms of its size and trends that appeared in it. Moreover, the overall financial situation of the customers was also considered to be strongly attractive. In terms of the commercial viabilities, Germany also presented its strong position. Even though, the corporate tax was defined as a very high, the market size and its potential should compensate loses that company will have to face in terms of the taxation. Finally, Germany’s infrastructure also confirmed to be well established and will definitely be able to cope with needs of OBUL.
