E-MOBILITY

Slowing down global warming requires new concepts of mobility. The aim is to reduce CO2 emission in the medium term and to eliminate it eventually. Even though a variety of tech-nical solutions are feasible, policy makers in the Northern hemisphere opted for electro-mobility as alternative to the still pre-dominantly used combustion engine vehicles.The trend to E-mobility was, therefore, initiated by government decisions and still seems to depend more on the policy-made change in regulations and economic incentives than on market forces. In particular, the EU seems to be firmly determined to switch transportation towards E-mobility. Since 2021, also the US administration has felt obliged to this aim.The consequences, however, are to be felt also in parts of the world not being involved in these decisions. Even though Argentina is not one of the leading countries in the automo-tive supply chain, the countries' small and medium-sized suppliers must adapt their com-pany strategies to the changing market environment.In this book, students and scholars discuss selected aspects. Nearly all of the essays derive from Master theses written in the wider context of the "maestría argentino-alemana" in International Business, a programme run jointly by the University of Applied Sciences in Mainz, Germany, and the Universidad de Ciencias Empresariales y Sociales (UCES) in Buenos Aires.

The Future of Mental Health: Deconstructing the Mental Disorder Paradigm , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 627min

The Future of Mental Health drills to the heart of the current mental health crisis, where hundreds of millions of individuals worldwide receive unwarranted "mental disorder" diagnoses. It paints a picture of how mental health providers can improve their practices to better serve individuals in distress and outlines necessary steps for a mental health revolution. Eric Maisel's goal is to inject more human interaction into the therapeutic process. Maisel powerfully deconstructs the "mental disorder" paradigm that is the foundation of current mental health practices. The author presents a revolutionary alternative, a "human experience" paradigm. He sheds a bright light on the differences between so-called "psychiatric medication" and mere chemicals with powerful effects and explains why the DSM-5 is silent on causes, silent on treatment, and wedded to illegitimate "symptom pictures". Maisel describes powerful helping alternatives like communities of care and explains why one day "human experience specialists" may replace current mental health professionals. An important book for both service providers and service users, The Future of Mental Health brilliantly unmasks current mental health practices and goes an important step further: It describes what we are obliged to do in order to secure better mental health services - and better mental health. ungekürzt.

Diplomatic Baggage: The Adventures of a Trailing Spouse , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 733min

When Sunday Times fashion journalist Brigid Keenan married the love of her life in the late '60s, little idea did she have of the roller-coaster journey they would make around the world together - with most things going horribly awry while being obliged to keep the straightest faces and put their best feet forward. For he was a diplomat - and Brigid found herself the smiling face of the European Union in locales ranging from Kazakhstan to Trinidad. Finding herself miserable for the first time in a career into which many would have long ago thrown the towel, she found herself asking (during a farewell party for the Papal Nuncio): was it worth it? As this stream of it-really-happened-to-me stories shows, it most certainly was - if only for our vicarious bewilderment at how exactly you throw a buffet dinner during a public mourning period in Syria, remain viable as a fashion journalist when taste-wise you are three seasons out of it and geographically a world away, make people believe that there are actually terrible things going on in paradise, be a good mother and save some of the finest architecture in Damascus and Brussels from demolition - seemingly all simultaneously. ungekürzt.

The Third Nero: Flavia Albia, Book 5 (Falco: The New Generation) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 736min

From the creator of Falco comes Falco: The New Generation, featuring her unforgettable heroine Flavia Albia. Flavia Albia's day-old marriage is in trouble - her new husband may be permanently disabled, and they have no funds. So when Palace officials ask her to help expose a plotter in their midst, she is obliged to accept their commission. The plot could not be bigger. Ever since he died in AD 68, apparently by his own hand, Rome has been haunted by reports that Emperor Nero is in fact very much alive and about to return to claim his throne. Two Nero pretenders have emerged in the east and met grisly fates. But now, as Emperor Domitian, whose tyrannical, paranoid reign grows ever more unpopular, fights a war in faraway Dacia, there emerges a far more sinister contender. What's more the rumour is that this false Nero is already in Rome. Plunged into the conspiracy, Flavia must infiltrate the house of the Parthians who have smuggled in this new impostor, negotiate with spies, dodge the assassins sent by the Palace traitor, and somehow cope with her stricken husband. Can she succeed before the impostor is revealed? Or will Rome once more be plunged into civil war? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lucy Brown.
