On Wings of Blood

There is a curiosly popular conception of studies in ancient philosphy being "mere history of" philosophy as opposed to work citing more recent authors being the actual stuff. A less common but similarly limited misnomer is the replacement of good old "classical philology" with "study of antiquity". Gandhi and the Stoics  could even enlighten sould shadowed by such limitations.

Aus den Rezensionen:

"... Alles in allem zeigen die facettenreichen Beiträge nach einer ausführlichen Darstellung der aktuellen Konfliktlagen Wege für die Zukunft auf ... Dabei zeichnet sich der Band ... durch eine verständliche, inhaltliche Aufbereitung der Konflikte … aus. ... Wissenschaftlern, darunter auch Juristen ... und Politikern auf nationaler wie internationaler Ebene dürfte dieser vom Umfang überschaubare Band nützliche Denkanstöße geben ... Für den Schnelleinstieg – aber auch für einen ganz speziellen Zugriff – eignet sich außerdem das umfangreiche und mit großer Sorgfalt bearbeitete Sachverzeichnis." (Marcel Bosse, in: Wissenschaftsrecht, 2006, Vol. 39, Issue 4, S. 366 ff.)
&nbsp;
"… Der Erkenntnisfortschritt liegt indes, der Konzeption des Bandes entsprechend, weniger in rechtsdogmatischen Einzelfragen - in soweit findet man viel Bekanntes als in einer differenzierteren Einschätzung des Beziehungsgeflechts von Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft und Politik. … die Beiträge stehen der zunehmenden ökonomisch motivierten Abschottung von Forschungsergebnissen zu Recht kritisch gegenüber und sehen bei der im Grundsatz begrüßten ‘Demokratisierung’ des Sachverstands durchaus Korrektur- und Nachbesserungsbedarf …" (Michael Fehling, in: Der Staat, 2007, Vol. 46, Issue 3, S. 472 ff.)

"The idea of an informal economy has come a long way since its origins in a dialogue between ethnography and economic analysis four decades ago. This important new Brazilian study brings the debate concerning its relevance to development up-to-date, offering rich ethnography of its own and a penetrating synthesis of theoretical arguments." - Keith Hart, Emeritus Professor of Anthropology, Department of Anthropology, Goldsmiths, University of London, United Kingdom

"The Informal Economy and Employment in Brazil is a significant overview of 'ways of acting' in the Brazilian informality, focusing the attention on three 'typical' categories of informal workers (the garbage collectors, the street vendors, the door-to-door sellers, and the commercial agents). Through a careful use of ethnographic research tools, the book allows a better understanding of the 'new' informal economy, analyzing both the main differences compared to the principal forms of 'old' informality developed in the past, and important factors of approximation and differentiation in relation to the informal economy that characterizes the more advanced capitalist countries." - Ricardo Antunes, Professor of Labor's Sociology, University of Campinas (UNICAMP), Brazil

"Coletto revisits the concept of the informal economy through a rigorous method and keeps away the temptation to take refuge in the usual clichés in this field of study. This is an indispensable book for those who wish introduce themselves into this concept or review it. It is not just a study on the Brazilian economy, but, essentially, it is a work that focuses the construction of an epistemology that reaffirms the validity of the use of this concept to investigate deeper labor markets and social welfare in their multiple dimensions, political, social, and economic." - Maria Cristina Cacciamali, Professor of Economics, University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil

"Coletto's book retrieves the conceptual debate about informality and its changes since its emergence in the 1970s as an issue of a poor country, and nowadays as a product of flexible capitalism. Based on an extensive ethnographic study of "street" workers' categories - e.g. garbage collectors, street vendors, door-to-door saleswomen and commercial agents in Brazilian cities - the author showed the economic and social relations that maintain and reproduce workers in the informal economy, as well as the new proposals of organizational arrangements that aim to recover their dignity. An excellent contribution to understanding the Latin American modernity shades." - Jacob Carlos Lima, Professor of Sociology, Department of Sociology, Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCAR), Brazil

"The text of Diego Coletto casts light on the informal economy, which is a very important phenomenon in the so-called Third World's countries, but it is also increasingly relevant in the developed economies, more specifically after the 2008 great financial crisis, whose effects we are still living." - Gianfranco Bottazzi, Professor of Sociology, Department of Economic and Social Research, University of Cagliari, Italy

"Housman&rsquo;s singular vision seized hold of the English imagination, inspiring not just a literary following but a generation of composers, like George Butterworth and Ralph Vaughan Williams, who sought to do musically what Housman had done with verse: to create a new and authentically English kind of song."&mdash;New Yorker

"...This book offers the best approach to the presentation of problems related to the treatment of the acute leukemias that I know of. The idea of having different groups of investigators give their views on the topics and the emphasis on future directions make it an important contribution to the study of leukemia. Treatment of Acute Leukemias should be read by both adult and pediatric hematologists and oncologists, and it should be required reading for trainees in these disciplines. Dr. Pui, who has already made major contributions through his own work, has added greatly to the future of the field by organizing and editing this impressive book."   -New England Journal of Medicine

"...comprehensive and up to date. This is one of the best books produced in recent years on the diagnosis and management of the acute leukaemias." - European Journal of Haematology

From the reviews:“This book covers a range of topics related to drug discovery, natural product chemistry, cancer biology, and chemical biology. … value to researchers in both academia and the pharmaceutical industry who are involved in the study and development of natural products as potential chemotherapeutic agents. It also will be helpful to basic biomedical scientists and clinicians as a quick overview of this area of research and its recent developments. … also provides a critical assessment of the challenges that researchers in this research field face.” (Bao Ting Zhu, Doody’s Review Service, March, 2013)

From the reviews:“The current book offers valuable knowledge regarding mechanisms, clinical aspects, diagnostic methods, and therapeutic approach in drug allergy, which will aid the caring physician to successfully diagnose and manage affected individuals. … The summary points at the end of each chapter represent an outstanding feature of this book. As a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms, clinical manifestations and diagnostic methods in drug allergy will provide valuable and practical information for every physician interested in this disease.” (Juan Carlos Aldave, World Allergy Organization, worldallergy.org, February, 2014)“Book presents the science behind what truly is an allergic reaction to guide evidence-based decisions on drug therapy. It addresses the clinical aspects of allergy in addition to the mechanism of disease, the molecular chemistry behind allergy, and other key features. … Although this can be a valuable reference for anyone in healthcare, the primary audience is composed of physicians, pharmacists, and nurses, as well as students … . a great reference for those who wish more information or are preparing lectures on this topic.” (Patrick J. McDonnell, Doody’s Book Reviews, October, 2013)
