Spielberg, Brin, Dell, Seinfeld-phenomenally successful ...and Jewish. Why have Jews risen to the top of the business and professional world in numbers staggeringly out of proportion to their percentage of the American population? Steven Silbiger has the answer. Based on the author's synthesis of wide reading and research, The Jewish Phenomenon sets forth seven principles that form the bedrock of Jewish financial success. With startling statistics, a wealth of anecdotes, and the fascinating details behind some of America's biggest business success stories, Silbiger convincingly shows how these seven keys have helped the Jews historically and how they continue to ensure Jewish success today. More important, the author makes clear that these principles are equally at the disposal of Jews and non-Jews alike. The amazing success of the Jews simply proves that they work. The Jewish Phenomenon pays tribute not merely to the success of a people but to the commonsense wisdom and enduring values that can enrich us all.

Der Steppenwolf ist dasjenige Buch Hermann Hesses, das die internationale Renaissance seines Autors ausgelöst hat. Schon 1927 schrieb Kurt Pinthus: "Ich lese den Steppenwolf, dies unbarmherzigst und seelenzerwühlendste aller Bekenntnisbücher, düsterer und wilder als Rousseaus Confessions, die grausamste Geburtsfeier, die je ein Dichter selbst zelebrierte."§"Es handelt sich um einen Anarchisten, der voll rasender Wut auf dieses falsch dastehende Dasein Warenhäuser und Kathedralen zerschlagen und der bürgerlichen Weltordung das Gesicht ins Genick drehen möchte. Es handelt sich um einen Revolutionär des Ichs... Der Steppenwolf ist eine Dichtung des gegenbürgerlichen Mutes."

Beginning in the 1960s, John Brookes MBE (1933–2018) revolutionized garden design, with a new design philosophy and methodology that was rooted in the notion that gardens are about the people who live in them. Recognizing the demands of the contemporary lifestyle, he broke with previous labor-intensive garden design traditions and the emphasis on showcasing plants. Instead he promoted using gardens as extensions of the home.He introduced this notion in his 1969 book, A Room Outside, which also contained practical advice on materials, methodology, and planting. His approach was unprecedented and included the then-novel idea that people of all income levels could have designed, fashionable gardens tailored to their needs, low-maintenance, and beautiful. John taught and lectured around the world and, thanks to his energetic writing, teaching and media appearances, he became regarded as the 'king’ and 'godfather’ of garden and landscape design.How to Design a Garden is an informative and ultimately practical collection of his thoughts and advice selected from countless writings and lectures given to students, professionals and the public around the world. In addition to his teaching on how to design a garden, the book has two key themes – environmental sustainability and a focus on the local vernacular. They show how far ahead he was of his time and to what a great extent his teaching remains relevant to garden-makers today.

Con motivo de los 50 ańos de la aparición de la novela Pedro Páramo, del escritor mexicano Juan Rulfo (1917-1986), la Fundación que lleva su nombre ha concedido a la editorial RM Verlag los derechos editoriales para la publicación de la versión original de este clásico de la literatura latinoamericana. Desde su primera aparición en 1955 se han prodigado diversas ediciones y más de 50 traducciones, pero la presente versión es la única avalada por la Fundación Juan Rulfo, garante de la fidelidad e integridad de la obra.Desde su aparición, Pedro Páramo provocó una convulsión en el panorama literario de la época. En sus aspectos formales, la novela desorientó a los lectores acostumbrados a la unidad de estilo, espacio y tiempo de la novela decimonónica. Pedro Páramo, por el contrario, ofrecía una aparente falta de unidad del texto, una composición desordenada, la ausencia de un argumento central, la aparición de continuas elipsis y la aparición de unos personajes en ocasiones fantasmagóricos.En cuanto a su contenido, Pedro Páramo logró retratar de manera lúcida y penetrante el espíritu y la idiosincrasia del pueblo mexicano. Las principales fuentes de Rulfo para componer esta obra fueron, sin duda alguna, su formación como lector, su interés por la historia, la antropología y el estudio de las culturas y las gentes de México. Siempre dedicó gran parte de sus lecturas a este ámbito, asistió como oyente a la Universidad y dedicó gran parte de su juventud a recorrer los rincones más interesantes de su país.
