π-Stacked Polymers and Molecules: Theory, Synthesis, and Properties

by Tamaki Nakano

This book covers broad aspects of the chemistry of π-stacked polymers and low-molecular-weight molecules, from synthesis through theory. It is intended for graduate students and researchers in academia and industry and consists of chapters written by renowned scientists who have made significant contributions to this field in the past decade. π-Stacked polymers and low-molecular-weight molecules are expected to replace main-chain conjugated polymers such as polyacetylenes and polythiophenes as organic conducting and energy-transferring substances that are important as materials for photo-electronic applications. π-Stacked polymers and molecules have significant advantages over main-chain conjugated polymers, i.e., high solubility in solvents, large freedom in molecular design, and colorless nature.

β-Strang-Ausbildung eines Faltungsintermediates von BamA: Adsorption an Lipidmembranen induziert lokale Sekundärstruktur in β-Strang 9 (BestMasters)

by Sascha Herwig

Sascha Herwig beschreibt die Faltung und den Einbau von β-Fass-Membranproteinen am Modell des essenziellen BamA aus Außenmembranen von Escherichia coli, der zentralen Untereinheit des β-Barrel-Assembly-Machinery-Komplexes. Membranproteine des β-Fass-Typs der Außenmembranen von Bakterien oder Zellorganellen werden über diesen Komplex eingebaut. Mit ortsgerichteter Fluoreszenzspektroskopie des β-Strangs 9 der insgesamt 16 β-Stränge umfassenden BamA-Membrandomäne wird in Modellmembranen nachgewiesen, dass der Strang in einem Faltungsintermediat bereits in adsorbierter Form parallel zur Membranoberfläche entsteht.

„… und anderes denk in anderer Zeit …“: Hölderlins letzte Gedanken zu Recht und Politik in den „Pindarfragmenten“ (Abhandlungen zur Literaturwissenschaft)

by Michael Franz

Hölderlins sog. „Pindarfragmente“ sind für die philologische und die philosophische Forschung seit jeher ein Gegenstand größten Interesses, wobei die Hermetik der Texte einiger interpretatorischer Anstrengungen bedarf. In diesem Buch wird die These ausgearbeitet, dass die neun Texte Hölderlins einen komplexen Gesamttext ausmachen und nicht etwa eine sich Zufälligkeiten verdankende Auswahl von Aperçus über einige rätselhafte Pindar-Texte darstellen. In mehreren Durchgängen durch die neun Texte zeigt sich deren inhaltlicher Zusammenhang, der durch das Diskursfeld der Politik bestimmt wird. Genauer gesagt, durch das – unter Umständen antagonistische – Aufeinandertreffen von politischen und rechtlichen Ansprüchen. Auf dem Hintergrund der in der Forschung bislang eher vernachlässigten politischen Entwicklung in Südwestdeutschland, die zu den napoleonischen Staaten führte, bekommen die politischen Erwägungen Hölderlins konkrete Farben, die sie aus dem ästhetischen Reich der Klassischen Philologie heraus – in’s Offene – führen.

The 007 Diaries: Filming Live and Let Die

by Sir Roger Moore

Out of print for over forty years, The 007 Diaries introduces Roger Moore’s James Bond Diary to a new generation of fans. To tie in with the release of his first James Bond film, Live and Let Die, Roger Moore agreed to keep a day-by-day diary throughout the film’s production, which would be published just ahead of the premiere in July 1973. From his unveiling as the new 007 in 1972 through to his first scenes on location in New Orleans and his final shot in New York, Moore describes his whirlwind journey as cinema’s most famous secret agent. Taking in the sights of Jamaica before returning to Pinewood Studios, Moore’s razor wit and unique brand of humour is ever present. With tales from every location, including his encounters with his co-stars and key crew members, Moore offers the reader an unusually candid, amusing and hugely insightful behind-the-scenes look into the world’s most successful film franchise.

03_02

by Mainak Dhar

At 03:02 on a Sunday morning, the world as we knew it came to an end. Mumbai suddenly went black — no electricity, no phones, no internet and no working cars. It was as if someone had turned off the master switch of our civilization, turning us back hundreds of years overnight. We learned that it was not just Mumbai, but much of the world that had been impacted. We also learned that it was no accident. A deadly enemy was behind it. An enemy that was now in our midst, seeking to conquer us and destroy our way of life. This is how our war for freedom began. A war that was to be waged not on the borders or by the Army, but in our homes and streets, with us as the soldiers.

1,000 Mitzvahs: How Small Acts of Kindness Can Heal, Inspire, and Change Your Life

by Linda Cohen

When her father passed away in 2006, Linda Cohen’s busy life as a mother, wife, and entrepreneur came to a screeching halt. She took a spiritual sabbatical to work through her grief, and she came out of it resolved to embark upon a project: perform one thousand acts of kindness-mitzvahs-to honor her father’s memory.1,000 Mitzvahs shares Cohen’s two-and-a-half-year journey from sorrow to inspiration through simple daily acts of kindness. She presents each mitzvah as a short vignette, and the myriad forms they take-from helping the elderly to donating to good causes to baking and collecting food for others-highlight the many ways in which one person can touch the lives of others. As she pursues her quest, Cohen finds that her life is improved by these small acts-that every time she goes out of her way to do something good for someone else, she enhances her own well-being.More than a touching story of a daughter’s love for her father, 1,000 Mitzvahs is a testament to the transformational power of kindness, and a call to arms for those who would like to follow in Cohen’s footsteps with their own mitzvahs-no matter how large or how small.

1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die

by Tom Moon

The musical adventure of a lifetime. The most exciting book on music in years. A book of treasure, a book of discovery, a book to open your ears to new worlds of pleasure. Doing for music what Patricia Schultz—author of the phenomenal 1,000 Places to See Before You Die—does for travel, Tom Moon recommends 1,000 recordings guaranteed to give listeners the joy, the mystery, the revelation, the sheer fun of great music. This is a book both broad and deep, drawing from the diverse worlds of classical, jazz, rock, pop, blues, country, folk, musicals, hip-hop, world, opera, soundtracks, and more. It's arranged alphabetically by artist to create the kind of unexpected juxtapositions that break down genre bias and broaden listeners’ horizons— it makes every listener a seeker, actively pursuing new artists and new sounds, and reconfirming the greatness of the classics. Flanking J. S. Bach and his six entries, for example, are the little-known R&B singer Baby Huey and the '80s Rastafarian hard-core punk band Bad Brains. Farther down the list: The Band, Samuel Barber, Cecelia Bartoli, Count Basie, and Afropop star Waldemer Bastos. Each entry is passionately written, with expert listening notes, fascinating anecdotes, and the occasional perfect quote—"Your collection could be filled with nothing but music from Ray Charles," said Tom Waits, "and you'd have a completely balanced diet." Every entry identifies key tracks, additional works by the artist, and where to go next. And in the back, indexes and playlists for different moods and occasions.

1,000 Unforgettable Senior Moments: Of Which We Could Remember Only 254

by Tom Friedman

The president who left the nuclear launch codes in a suit at the dry cleaners. The novelist who put the orange juice outside and the kitten in the refrigerator. The Russian general who left home in full military dress . . . minus his pants. The famous sex goddess who blew the same line through 52 takes. And the rock star who no longer remembers 1975. Filled with classic lapses, gaffes, and mental bloopers, 1,000 Unforgettable Senior Moments is a fabulous and witty gift for anyone of a certain age. And now it is updated, revised with more than 20 percent new stories, and repackaged in two color, making it an even more vibrant, visually appealing, fresh, and compellingly readable book. Anyone who&’s ever had a mental lapse will empathize with relative spring chicken Nicki Minaj, who, while accepting a BET Viewers&’ Choice Award, forgot why she was receiving the statuette (on live national television, no less). Or the team of astrophysicists who believed they had discovered proof of alien life—only to discover the signals were coming from the lunchroom microwave. Here&’s a best man forgetting to show up at the wedding, a musician leaving his priceless cello in a cab, the bank robber who wrote a holdup note on a paycheck stub that had his name and address printed on it, and the Fox studio chief who, when pressed by his leading lady to remember her name, offered &“. . . Cleopatra?&”
