Great Escapes Alps: The Hotel Book
The Alps are Europe's biggest and greatest mountain range. Formed millions of years ago, they became a popular destination for travelers in the late eighteenth century - first for adventurers and explorers, then for artists and writers, and finally for everyone who wanted to spend summer in the fresh air of this wonderful scenery or take part in winter sports. Angelika Taschen has followed in their footsteps and collected the finest hotels in the Alpine nations of Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, and Italy.
They include the Kranzbach near Garmisch-Partenkirchen, built for a British aristocrat, Gasthof Hirschen in the Bregenzerwald, where art-loving visitors have been welcomed since 1755, and the Seehof near Salzburg with its emphasis on contemporary art and fine cuisine. The journey goes to Waldhaus Sils in Sils Maria, where many creative guests have found inspiration, to the Schatzalp in Davos, which Thomas Mann immortalized in literature in "The Magic Mountain", and to picturesque bed & breakfasts with a personal touch such as Brucke49 in Vals and Maison Bergdorf in Interlaken.
High above Chamonix, mountaineers have stayed overnight for more than 140 years at Refuge du Montenvers with its view of the Mer de Glace, the largest glacier in France. In the exclusive Megeve, too, which Baroness Noemie de Rothschild put on the tourist map, travelers experience the Alps a la francaise in the chalet hotel L'Alpaga; and a bit of Italian dolce vita is provided by stunning addresses in the South Tyrol such as the Ottmangut in Merano, Villa Arnica in Lana with its nostalgic atmosphere, and Pension Briol near Barbiano, constructed in 1928 in the Bauhaus style and extended in 2021 with the addition of two extremely modern buildings.
This opulent book of photographs presents the Alpine range and accommodation in large-format images, short texts, and useful details on prices and how to get there. Walkers, skiers, gourmets, and lovers of good living will find valuable tips and very special accommodation: former monasteries where guests still find peace and seclusion, a mountain hut at the heart of the Dolomites, and a youth hostel occupying what was once a sanatorium, a rare example of modern architecture in Switzerland that was declared a heritage monument in 2002.

What you did - Kísért a múlt
Egy borzalmas bántalmazási ügy. Egy szörnyű vád. Ki mond igazat: a férj vagy a legjobb barátnő?
Hat egyetemi barát húsz év után találkozik újra. Tökéletes összejövetelnek indul. A szervezőnek, Alinak végre sikerült olyan életet teremtenie, amilyenre mindig is vágyott. Alakulóban van a karrierje, az egyetemi barátja lett a férje, csodálatos a családja.
A találkozó éjjelén történtek azonban mindent felforgatnak. ugyanis legjobb barátnője, Karen vérezve, ziláltan botladozik be a kertből, és azt állítja, hogy Ali férje, Mike megerőszakolta. Alinak pillanatok alatt kell eldöntenie, hogy kinek hisz. a döbbent férjnek vagy a legjobb barátnak? Mivel Mike teljesen máshogy írja le a történteket, Ali tudja, hogy az egyikük hazudik. De melyikük az? És miért tenne ilyet? Ahogy a káosz eluralkodik a baráti társaságon, újra kell értékelniük az együtt töltött egyetemi éveket is, amelyekre eddig csodás emlékként tekintettek. Ali hamarosan rádöbben, hogy már akkoriban is történtek rémes dolgok.
Dolgok, amiket évtizedeken át rejtegettek. Amelyeknek a titokban tartásáért valaki akár gyilkolni is hajlandó lenne.

Video-interventions - what future teachers learn
The book deals with developing the concept of professional vision (noticing and knowledge-based reasoning) among future primary and secondary school teachers of Biology, Mathematics, English as a foreign language, Art, and Social Studies. Researching the use of video interventions during teacher-training programmes, the authors show that short-term interventions do not significantly improve professional vision, which is in contrast to student teachers’ perception of the practice. The book also uses case studies to uncover individual differences in student teachers’ learning, taking into account their various backgrounds and approaches. This is a valuable resource for teacher educators who are considering the incorporation of video-intervention courses into study programmes and for researchers interested in the development of professional vision.

For Thy Great Pain Have Mercy On My Little Pain
An astounding debut, both epic and intimate, about grief, trauma, revelation, and the hidden lives of women - by a major new talent
In the year of 1413, two women meet for the first time in the city of Norwich.
Margery has left her fourteen children and husband behind to make her journey. Her visions of Christ – which have long alienated her from her family and neighbours, and incurred her husband's abuse – have placed her in danger with the men of the Church, who have begun to hound her as a heretic.
Julian, an anchoress, has not left Norwich, nor the cell to which she has been confined, for twenty-three years. She has told no one of her own visions – and knows that time is running out for her to do so.
The two women have stories to tell one another. Stories about girlhood, motherhood, sickness, loss, doubt and belief; revelations more powerful than the world is ready to hear. Their meeting will change everything.
Sensual, vivid and humane, For Thy Great Pain Have Mercy On My Little Pain cracks history open to reveal the lives of two extraordinary women.
