'45: Die Welt am Wendepunkt




Ian Buruma, "'45: Die Welt am Wendepunkt"


2015 | ISBN: 3446247343 | German | 432 pages | EPUB | 3 MB




Das Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs setzte die bis heute letzte globale Zäsur – Ende und Anfang, die in unzählige einzelne Bilder und Geschichten zerfallen. Der niederländisch-amerikanische Historiker Ian Buruma hat Hunderte persönlicher Erinnerungen und Berichte aus Europa und Asien zu einer großen Geschichte der Welt zur Stunde Null zusammengefügt. Er erzählt von Feinden, die zu Befreiern wurden, blühenden Schwarzmärkten, Militärgerichten und Lynchjustiz, von Siegern und Besiegten, von Trauer, Angst und grenzenloser Freude. So anschaulich und vielstimmig war noch nie über den dramatischen Sommer 1945 zu lesen, in dem das Fundament für unsere Gegenwart gelegt wurde.

Aphasia Rehabilitation: An Auditory and Verbal Task Hierarchy by Deborah Ross


English | June 1, 1980 | ISBN: 0398040311, 0398040249 | 272 Pages | PDF | 6 MB




By Deborah F. Ross and Sara H. Spencer, both of Sacramento Medical Center, Sacramento, California. This is a comprehensive clinician's manual for treatment of the aphasic adult. The two sections of the text separately cover auditory processing and verbal expression. Each section contains activities that are integrated into a task hierarchy. Stimulus material for all levels of aphasic involvement, from mild to severe, is contained within each task hierarchy. The text is self-contained; score sheets and all other necessary materials have been incorporated. Although written primarily for use with aphasic adults, this book also will be helpful in work with apractic and dysarthric patients and with those in need of cognitive reorganization therapy. Suggestions for specific application in these areas are included wherever appropriate.
