Algae

An Introduction to Phycology

By: Christiaan Hoek,D. G. Mann,H. M. Jahns

Algae are ubiquitous. A multitude of species, ranging from microscopic unicells to gigantic kelps, inhabit the world's oceans, freshwater bodies, soils, rocks and trees. To understand the basic role of algae in the global ecosystem, a reliable and modern introduction to their kaleidoscopic diversity, systematics and phylogeny is indispensible. This volume provides such an introduction. The text represents a completely revised and updated edition of a highly acclaimed German textbook which was heralded for its clarity as well as its breadth and depth of information. This new edition takes into account recent re-evaluations in algal systematics and phylogeny which have been made necessary by insights provided by the powerful techniques of molecular genetics and electron microscopy, as well as more traditional life history studies.

'EK STERF 'N DUISEND MAAL IN AFRIKA'

By: Christiaan Herbst

As 'n seuntjie het ek aandagtig geluister na al die romantiese verhale van die olifantjagters, en van die waagmoed en dapperheid van die jagters op die spore van die ivoordraers...( stories soos myne) met die dood wat telkemale oor jou hare stryk. In drome het ek myself gesien in woude en woestyne, op die spore van die ivoordraers... agter die alleenloper buffel aan... gedroom van ongelooflike avonture. Het ek maar geweet hoe waar al my drome eendag sou word.

The War Has Ended But the Memory Lingers on

By: Christiaan Gutteling,Christiaan Gutteling with Helen Gutteling Atkinson,Helen Co Gutteling Atkinson

This fascinating tale of living under German occupation during World War II is told from the unique perspective of a Dutch secret agent. Highlighted by high drama, it is an epic story of life and conflict in the presence of an oppressive enemy.The anti-German struggle in the Netherlands was centered on sabotage requiring stealth and cunning. The reality of war forced many to choose between helping with the resistance, going into hiding, or leaving the country. Those who stayed and served saved countless numbers of Jewish lives and aided the war effort by covertly gathering and disseminating valuable information.----The author narrowly escaped the Germans as the British Navy came to his rescue. His story of unremitting toil to overtake an unrelenting enemy is stirring, inspiring, and unforgettable.

The Economic Consequences of the Dutch

Economic Integration Around the North Sea, 1500-1800

By: Christiaan van Bochove

Between 1550 and 1800 the Northern Netherlands went through a period of intense economic development. This did not leave the surrounding regions untouched. International trade blossomed, tens of thousands of foreign workers found employment in the Netherlands and many millions of guilders were channelled abroad to finance foreign commercial undertakings and government policies. This book offers the first systematic analysis of the international impact of Dutch economic development and investigates the economic consequences of Dutch dominance in the areas bordering the North Sea. By using a wide variety of sources and literature Christiaan van Bochove describes the international flows of goods, people and money, focussing attention on the effects on the prices of everyday goods, the wages of labourers and interest rates. This book shows how, by the end of the eighteenth century, the development of the Dutch economy had turned the North Sea region into an integrated spatial economy that operated at the frontier of what was technologically and institutionally possible.
