Kommunikation og økomentale systemer
Kommunikation og økomentale systemer er en introduktion til hele Gregory Batesons forfatterskab og kernen i det - nemlig spørgsmålene, hvad er det mentale, og hvordan får vi viden om det? Bent Ølgaard, cand.theol. og mag.art i psykologi, præsenterer Batesons banebrydende idéer og hvorledes Bateson på tværs af en række videnskaber som antropologi, genetik og evolutionslære, psykologi, økologi og filosofi udviklede en helt ny videnskab om det mentale hos levende organismer og om interaktionen mellem dem i form af kommunikation. Bent Ølgaards introduktion præsenterer Batesons til tider abstrakte univers og tænkning i en overskuelig og tilgængelig form ved at fremdrage de nærværende og dagligdags hændelser, som det egentlig handler om - udvekslingen af information, signaler, budskaber, idéer og tanker mellem de levende organismer og deres omverden - om kommunikation og økomentale systemer. Bent Ølgaard er cand.theol. og mag.art. i psykologi.

Frederick Barbarossa
Frederick Barbarossa, also known as Frederick I, Holy Roman Emperor from 1155, was a dominant figure in late 12th-century European history. He is remembered as one of the greatest medieval German emperors; some even regard him as a German hero. He brought peace to Germany, fought to maintain control over Italian cities and engaged in a lengthy dispute with the papacy. Barbarossa died on a Crusade to reclaim the Holy Land for Christianity. But despite his efforts, his reign marked a decline in imperial authority, with defeats in Italy and growing local power among German princes. Frederick Barbarossa examines this paradox, revealing the realities and limitations of monarchical power in medieval Europe. This is a cogent, original and up-to-date analysis of Barbarossa, suitable for both students and the general reader.

Isäpuolen vankina, E-bok
Jane Elliott kantaa kauheaa salaisuutta. Hänestä on tullut jo nelivuotiaana isäpuolensa orja. Isäpuoli alistaa, tyrannisoi sekä käyttää Janea seksuaalisesti hyväkseen. 17 vuoden ajan Jane joutuu elämään painajaismaisissa oloissa isäpuolensa vankina. Kun Jane 21-vuotiaana lopulta onnistuu pakenemaan isäpuolensa luota, hän päättää aloittaa uuden elämän rakastamansa miehen ja kahden lapsensa kanssa. Seuraavien vuosien ajan Jane perheineen joutuu kuitenkin elämään piilossa ennen kuin hän löytää tarpeeksi rohkeutta mennäkseen poliisin puheille.Juuri kukaan ei uskalla todistaa, kuinka kauhea ja väkivaltainen psykopaatti Janen isäpuoli on ollut. Oikeudenkäynnin tulos riippuu vain siitä, uskooko tuomioistuin Janen sydäntäraastavan tarinan.
