Boyken, Immo
The text is both in English and German. Otto Ernst Schweizer (1890-1965), architect, philosopher and teacher, had a crucial effect on the path of Modern architecture. When the central dairy in Nuremberg was finished in 1931 it was the largest complex of its kind in Europe and was seen by critics as a work that deserved the rank of prototype. 59pp.

Edited with an Introduction By Strickland, Matthew
The influence of war on late Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman society was dominant and all-pervasive. This volume brings together for the first time many of the most fundamental articles hitherto published on warfare in England and Normandy in the 11th and 12th centuries, combining the work of some of the foremost scholars in the field. Redressing the tendency to study military institutions and obligations in isolation from the practice of war, equal emphasis is here given both to organization and the composition of forces, and to strategy, tactics and conduct in war. The aim is to provide not only an in-depth analysis of the nature of war itself, but also firmly to place the study of warfare in a broader social, political and cultural context. The themes dealt with largely span the period of the Conquest, offering an assessment of the extent to which the Norman invasion marked radical change or a degree of continuity in the composition of armies and in methods of fighting. This collection, with an introduction and select bibliography, should be useful not simply to students of medieval warfare, but to those studying Anglo-Norman society and its ruling warrior aristocracy whose raison d'etre was war.277pp.

Edited By Jokic, Aleksandar
This work contains contributions by leading philosophers on the vast influence of Adolf Grunbaum on the philosophies of religion and science. A reprint of Grunbaum's "The Poverty of Theistic Cosmology" enriches the book. A highlight of this volume is an extended "Autobiographical-Philosophical Narrative" in which Grunbaum traces his intellectual journey, beginning with a poignant account of his early experiences with anti-Semitism in Nazi Germany and his intellectual queries about religious belief, continuing through the major milestones of his career, and concluding with his current interests. 476pp.
