    Der Apfel fällt nicht weit vom Pferd
    Neues vom "Dr. Harriot der Alpen"Dr. Hans Christ ordiniert wieder und beschreibt auch in seinem neuen Buch amüsante Erlebnisse und Begegnungen mit Vier- und Zweibeinern aus der (Tierarzt-) Praxis.Auch in seinem mittlerweile vierten Band mit heiteren Tiergeschichten präsentiert sich der Salzburger Tierarzt Dr. Hans Christ wieder als würdiger Nachfolger des beliebten Fernsehtierarztes Dr. James Harriot. Während Letzterer in der Serie "Der Doktor und das liebe Vieh" hierzulande für Lachen vor den TV-Schirmen sorgte, amüsiert Christ in gedruckter Form. Beiden gemeinsam: Oft sind es nicht nur die Tiere, die einer einfühlsamen Behandlung bedürfen, sondern auch die Menschen benötigen die (tier-) ärztliche Zuwendung. Es sind einfache Geschichten aus dem täglichen Leben, die dem alten Journalistenmotto gerecht werden: Die besten Geschichten schreibt das Leben.So erfährt man im neuen Band mit dem Titel "Der Apfel fällt nicht weit vom Pferd" unter anderem, warum Schweine nicht von der Hochzeitstorte naschen sollen und welche Gefahren bei der Rettung von Regenwürmern lauern. "Halbe" Katzen, die vollgenommen werden wollen, und Lamas, die ihre sprichwörtliche Nachträglichkeit unter Beweis stellen, sorgen genauso für eine breite Skala amüsierter Reaktionen zwischen nachdenklichem Schmunzeln und schallendem Lachen wie Schweine, die als Ehetherapeuten auftreten.Ein Muss nicht nur für Tierbesitzer, sondern für alle Freunde einer gediegenen Unterhaltung. Der Autor:Der gebürtige Wiener Dr. Hans Christ führt seit 1990 eine Tierarztpraxis in Bad Hofgastein (Salzburg). Bisher sind bereits drei Bände mit lustigen Tiergeschichten aus der Landtierarztpraxis im Verlag F. Sammler erschienen.

    The School of Night: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 694min
    An ancient mystery, a lost letter, and a timeless love unleash a long-buried web of intrigue that spans four centuries. In the late 16th century, five brilliant scholars gather under the cloak of darkness to discuss God, politics, astronomy, and the black arts. Known as the School of Night, they meet in secret to avoid the wrath of Queen Elizabeth. But one of the men, Thomas Harriot, has secrets of his own, secrets he shares with one person only: the servant woman he loves. In modern-day Washington, D.C., disgraced Elizabethan scholar Henry Cavendish has been hired by the ruthless antiquities collector Bernard Styles to find a missing letter. The letter dates from the 1600s and was stolen by Henry's close friend, Alonzo Wax. Now Wax is dead and Styles wants the letter back. But the letter is an object of interest to others, too. It may be the clue to a hidden treasure; it may contain the long-sought formula for alchemy; it most certainly will prove the existence of the group of men whom Shakespeare dubbed the School of Night but about whom little is known. Joining Henry in his search for the letter is Clarissa Dale, a mysterious woman who suffers from visions that only Henry can understand. In short order, Henry finds himself stumbling through a secretive world of ancient perils, caught up in a deadly plot, and ensnared in the tragic legacy of a forgotten genius. ungekürzt.

    Ask a Suffragist: Stories and Wisdom from America's First Feminists , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 574min
    A new and more diverse generation of feminists is raising questions about how to effect change. Ask a Suffragist channels the first generation of American feminists for modern inspiration. Activists with urgent causes to support don’t have time to read dull history textbooks. Fortunately, American suffragists lived radical lives that were in no way boring. Instead of droning on like an encyclopedia about dates, meeting minutes, and genealogy charts, Ask a Suffragist discusses relationships, strategies and activism, focusing on stories that are particularly relevant for modern feminist activists, whether for inspiration and emulation or to avoid repeating past mistakes. Each chapter considers a question today's feminists might ask the great feminists of the past, celebrating diversity instead of neatly pointing listeners into one right way of living. After all, the passionate, inspired and flawed people who started the movement often disagreed with each other.  The audiobook describes events that transpired during the 1830s through the 1860s, when the idea of equality for women was new and its supporters were vilified. Instead of laying out a comprehensive, strictly chronological history, Ask a Suffragist focuses on stories that are particularly relevant for modern intersectional feminist activists, whether for inspiration and emulation or to avoid repeating past mistakes.It discusses first-wave feminism more broadly, including struggles toward abolition of slavery, racial justice, temperance, expansion of educational and professional opportunities for women, the advancement of feminist theology in churches, and dress reform (the right to wear pants or bloomers instead of those exasperating dresses and petticoats). For example, the audiobook highlights the work of Harriot Hunt and Elizabeth Blackwell to open the field of medicine to women, Antoinette Brown’s journey to become the first woman ordained as a Protestant minist ungekürzt.
