Statua Lata in Synodo Dioecesana

"Dinosaurs on the Roof chronicles, in richest detail...the lives of these two unlikely companions...and complete a kind of soul swap in the process. One of America's most celebrated contemporary playwrights, Rabe tells Janet and Bernice's story in alternating chapters that amalgamate into an intricate -- nearly obsessive -- composite of memory and metaphor. Darkly comic, painstakingly observed, Dinosaurs on the Roof raises all the right questions about life, sex, death, faith, and survival in an increasingly unforgiving world." -- Pam Houston, O Magazine

"Keine leichte Kost, aber ein Werk, das unsere [der Richter] Tätigkeit rechtswegübergreifend in ihren Grundfesten betrifft." Betrifft JUSTIZ, 109-2012"Die umfangreiche Arbeit zeichnet auf hohem theoretischen Niveau die Arbeitspraxis des richterlichen Berufsstandes nach, die bisher von soziologischen Untersuchungen nur selten derart intensiv durchdrungen werden konnte." www.socialnet.de, 02.02.2009"Die Leistung Stegmaiers liegt darin, dass er die Pragmatik richterlichen Handelns sichtbar macht. Der vordergründig kritische Ton, der noch die rollentheoretischen Analysen Lautmanns prägte, ist heute verschwunden. Aber auf dieser Infrastruktur einer realistischen Analyse muss jede ideologie-kritische oder hegemonie-theoretische Analyse aufbauen. Das Buch taugt zum Mehrfachlesen, denn hier spürt man die praktische Komplexität einer Rechtsarbeit, welche nicht einfach auf das Abspulen eines Programms oder das Lesen von Gesetzen reduziert wredn kann." Archiv für Rechts- und Staatsphilosophie, 95/4, 2009Guido Kirchhoff schreibt in 'betrifft JUSTIZ':"Das Buchenthält weiter viellnteressantes zur lnteraktion in der Verhandlung und derMelange ausRationalität und Kreativität, Normbindung und Interpretationsmöglichkeiten, die dieRechtsfindung immer wieder spannend und herausfordernd machen. Fazit: Keine leichte Kost, aber ein Werk, das unsereTätigkeit rechtswegübergreifend in ihrenGrundfesten betrifft."Gregor Kuntze-Kaufhold in der Zeitschrift für Rechtssoziologie:“Stegmaier stellt die richtige Frage in den Raum: Wennwirwüssten, wie das Rechtfunktioniert, könnten wir uns adäquat übereine Methodenlehre unterhalten. Die Lösung für dieses Problem hat Stegmaier nicht gefunden, aber Material und Deutungen, die auf dem Weg dahin von Bedeutung sein können.“

Praise for In Case of Emergency&ldquo;In Case of Emergency begins with a phone call and unfolds into a sharply plotted, dark story packed with lies, betrayals, and so many secrets. Fast-moving and clever!&rdquo;&mdash;Samantha Downing, author of the #1 international bestseller&#160;My Lovely Wife"With more twists and turns than a mountain road,&#160;In Case of Emergency&#160;will take you on one hell of a ride.

“The NATO Committee on the Challenges of Modern Society sheds new light on the anxieties facing the Western allies. … This overview of the CCMS’s early studies offers a reminder that NATO’s operations have long been far more complex and diverse than the phrase ‘political and military alliance’ suggests.” (Susan Colbourn, H-Net Reviews, h-net.org, April 16, 2019)

"Her designs are all so beautiful and it really does catch the eye&#39;s attention! With her choices of colors, the designs really have that extra edge in them!" --Handmade Jewelry Club"The graphics for this book provide some of the best illustrated instructions I have seen in a long, long time... This inspirational book will make a delightful addition to any serious beadweaver&#39;s library." --Beading Gem"But it is so much than just a book full of patterns. In her introduction, Kasie states that her goal in writing the book was not only to teach readers how to create the designs, but also to inspire everyone to discover their own creativity and ideas. She certainly accomplished this goal with me. I can hardly wait to finish up my current projects and begin exploring with the ideas that came to mind as I read each chapter of her book... The way Kassie explains each technique and explores the possibility of new designs using these techniques inspired me as a designer and I highly recommend this book to others." --Beads Forever"Beadweaving: Beyond the Basics, by Kassie Shaw teaches some new intermediate variations on right angle weave through 24 beautiful projects. There is a progression through the projects of idea building upon idea, but it&#39;s not absolutely essential to work straight through. Kassie wants to inspire people to use the ideas as jumping off points for personal design work... The illustrations and directions are excellent, and basics are included in the front to refresh you on the basic stitches before you take off with the variations. One of the most exciting things to me is that this book presents so many new bezeling possibilities." --Beading Arts

"There&#39;s nothing quite so daunting for knitters as tackling a traditional English-Scottish cabled-patterned sweater from scratch for the first time. Fortunately, Brown-Reinsel has thoroughly updated her ultimate knitter&#39;s guide to ganseys (distinguished from Aran sweaters because of their Irish heritage and early-twentieth century roots, among other elements), first published 25 years ago. Several of the nine patterns are new, as is the plethora of color photographs that accompany each pattern as well as the stitches, techniques, and swatches that require visual explanation. Brown-Reinsel&#39;s fans won&#39;t be surprised by her exquisite attention to detail." ~Booklist, starred review
