“There’s no time like the present to examine our
current regime for nutrition.”
Dr. Malte Rubach
2
The eco footprint of our daily diet
How much CO₂ is emitted by one serving of spaghetti bolognese? About 1.5 kilograms!
This example shows what the meat industry and food logistics mean for the eco-balance
of our food. But is it enough to switch to meat-free and dairy-free alternatives or local
specialities? Dr. Malte Rubach takes a closer look and reviews our food regime and its
impact on our climate. We live in a society influenced by technology and the rising
consumption of resources. Rubach argues for a sensible attitude to food and shows what
we can still eat with a clear conscience.
Dr. Malte Rubach studied nutrition science
in Germany, Turkey and the US. His interest
in nutrition began in his youth as a
competitive sportsman. As a consultant and
author, he has specialized for more than
15 years in nutrition, health, sustainability
and innovation. His analyses have been
published in international specialist journals
and media such as The New York Times and
Folha de S.Paulo.

Shooting fish and angling insects: amazing cultural feats in the
animal kingdom
From insects to fish as well as birds and primates: the use of tools is amazingly widespread
in the animal kingdom. It’s a misnomer to presume that humans are distinguished by tool
use and conscious capacity. So where is culture initiated? The biologist Peter-René Becker
has evaluated numerous studies and cites plenty of evidence for the use of the hammer and
anvil, lances, bait or sponges. Animals also use “tools as social implements”. Ultimately, the
depth of man’s conscience singles him out from other animals.
The biologist and ethnologist Peter-René
Becker was director of the natural history
section of the Overseas Museum Bremen from
1997, and in October 2011 he became director
of the State Museum for Nature and Man
in Oldenburg. Becker’s interests lie at the
intersections of natural history, ethnology
and trade.

From the ancient world to Asterix:
how plant chemistry explains magical stories
The adventures of Odysseus are not just a classic literary epic but also shine a light on
intriguing questions for geography, archaeology and biology. Phenomena like the Cyclops
and magic potions were only understood in recent decades thanks to phytochemical and
pharmacological research that enabled new insights into the effect of plant substances on
the mind and body. Monika Niehaus and Michael Wink embark on an enjoyable excursion
in their book on a scientific foray for knowledge – from ancient myths to medieval drug
excesses and the world of comics.

Unser Gehirn ist ein höchst komplexes und fragiles System. In der Regel
funktioniert es recht gut, doch bei manchen Menschen kann es aus dem
Gleichgewicht geraten. Die Ursachen können ganz unterschiedlich sein;
in einigen Fällen sind sie angeboren, in anderen durch Umweltfaktoren
bedingt. Gemeinsam ist allen, dass sich das Verhalten der Betroffenen
dramatisch von dem ihrer Mitmenschen unterscheidet. Alltägliche Gefühle
und Wünsche, wie wir alle sie kennen, können zum Wahn und damit
pathologisch werden. Wie das gesunde Gehirn ist auch das wahnhafte ein
meisterhafter Erzähler, dem es immer wieder gelingt, eine „vernünftige“
Geschichte zu fabrizieren; so entsteht ein bizarres, aber für den Betroffe-
nen in sich schlüssiges Weltbild. Einige dieser neuropsychiatrischen
Syndrome, die selten und weitgehend unbekannt sind, werden in diesem
Buch vorgestellt. Werwölfe, Zombies, schwangere Männer, unheimliche
Doppelgänger – für manche Gehirne sind sie Wirklichkeit.
Dr. Monika Niehaus, Biologin, arbeitet freiberuflich als Autorin,

The new hostility against Jews
The increasing hostility that Jews experience can no longer be explained away with fine
rhetoric. Antisemitism is taking hold in a menacing way at the heart of society. Sigmund
Gottlieb addresses his wake-up call to the population at large: stand up – not only against
right-wing extremist violence and radical Islamism, but also against hatred in the social
media, against unfair criticism of the state of Israel, against anti-Jewish abusive language
in the school playground, against trivializing reports in the media and day-to-day
indifference. The resurgent talk of ‘packed suitcases’ in Jewish communities is a moral
indictment. And it is intolerable.
The journalist Sigmund Gottlieb was born
in 1951 in Nuremberg, and from 1995 to
2017 he was editor-in-chief of Bavarian
television. He also taught at the Institute of
Publishing Studies at Johannes Gutenberg
University Mainz. He was Honorary Professor
for Journalism at the University of Applied
Sciences Amberg-Weiden and for several

“On nutrition and agriculture there are waste silos
of educational volumes that almost seem obsolete
because of Manfred Kriener’s books.”
Vincent Klink, award-winning chef
10
The new world of food from aquaculture to superfood
This book is not a manual but provides an information kit so we can find our way
intelligently and make decisions. Nutrition is a constant talking point, but often there
is a lack of knowledge and judgement. Amidst this confusion of facts, Manfred Kriener
clarifies the rapid change of our food culture. He covers the entire range from the vegan
trend to insect food, from aquaculture to cultured meat. Kriener also focuses on the
various obscure quality seals, chaotic labelling on the wine rack and our inconsistency as
consumers. The new world of food in eleven chapters, spicy at times, but plenty of food
for thought and to whet the appetite.
Manfred Kriener is a German journalist and
author who is among the founding fathers
of the daily newspaper taz. His specialist
interests are the environment and green
policies, nutrition and he is also a wine
journalist. Kriener has lived in Berlin since
1980.

“The trend for ‘gentle medicine’ has created a
new market – sometimes with potentially perilous
consequences.”
Beate Frenkel
12
The boom for alternative therapies
The market is growing for homeopathic remedies, diets and all kinds of miracle cures.
Although homeopathic practitioners in Germany are largely unregulated, their supporters
are growing in number. An industry has sprung up around alternative medicine that draws
on the mistrust towards the pharmaceutical industry, medicine and the media. Many
products are as harmless as they are ineffective – but some are dangerous or even lethal.
Beate Frenkel investigates: where is the source of this boom? What role do conspiracy
theories play as well as the influence of the internet? Why do politicians and the German
Medical Association take so few preventive steps? Powerful examples are backed up with
statements from doctors, patients and alternative medicine practitioners.
Beate Frenkel graduated in politics, history
and German literature and afterwards wor-
ked for Report Mainz (ARD) and as a foreign
correspondent in London. Today, she is an
editor for Frontal 21. She received the 2019
expopharm Media Prize for her documentary

The cultural history of our food and the origins of taste
This book follows a unique path in the ubiquitous food debate: it leads us on the trail of
the origins of our food culture, from the Neolithic period to the present day. Thomas A.
Vilgis has compiled a guide that combines scientific with cultural or sociological aspects.
How did Stone Age man poach food? Which cereal varieties were cultivated first? What is
the mysterious umami flavour all about? The cultural historical excursion gets interactive
with plenty of recipes for those curious to test Kimchi with birch leaves or red cabbage in
their dessert.
The physician Thomas
A. Vilgis is Professor for
Theoretical Physics at the
University of Mainz and has

The immense merits of pharmaceutical research
for modern medicine
Antibiotics, insulin, cortisone: countless medicines, which are now lifesavers, were still undiscovered in
1900. Since then, there have been impressive advances in pharmaceutical research. This book is dedicated
to all those whom we have to thank for this. While today research is conducted by university teams and
working groups in industry, during the early decades of the 20th century it was primarily individual
researchers whose ingenuity led to the development of new agents. An introduction to these ‘lighthouses’
in the fields of chemistry, biology, pharmacy and medicine, and to their successes.
