Inhalt: Der Molekularbiologe und international anerkannte Experte für Longevity Dr. Slaven Stekovic über die Erkenntnisse der Langlebigkeitsforschung Altern ist ein chronischer Prozess, der mit dem Tag unserer Geburt beginnt. Doch was genau passiert dabei im Körper? Und wie sehr können wir ihn beeinflussen und dadurch möglichst viele Jahre mit hoher Lebensqualität verbringen? Diese Fragen stehen im Zentrum der Langlebigkeitsforschung ; Longevity. Als relativ junge wissenschaftliche Disziplin kombiniert sie neueste wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse aus den Bereichen der Epigenetik und Genetik, aus der Biologie und der Medizin, und sie zeigt: Je mehr wir unseren Körper und seine Funktionsweisen verstehen, desto besser können wir beim Altwerden jung bleiben. Denn es geht nicht nur darum, wie lange unsere Lebensspanne ist, sondern auch wie gesund und fit wir sie verbringen. Dr. Slaven Stekovic forscht seit Jahren zu den Themen Alterung und Langlebigkeit und erklärt verständlich und fundiert: wie Zellen miteinander reden und warum sie im Alter zu unangenehmen Gesprächspartnern werden können; was uns Rhesusaffen über unser Immunsystem verraten; wieso DNA nicht nur ein Bauplan, sondern eine ganze Bibliothek ist, was in den einzelnen Büchern steht und wieso es wichtig ist, das richtige Buch zur richtigen Zeit aufzuschlagen; das Potenzial von Wissenschaft und Technologie ethische, gesellschaftliche und soziale Aspekte der Langlebigkeit Klappentext Der Alterungsprozess ist seit Jahrtausenden ein Gegenstand der Wissenschaft. Aber erst seit Kurzem besitzen wir die technischen Möglichkeiten und Methoden, um tiefer in das Innere eines Menschen blicken zu können ? in die Chemie der Zellen und Organe, das Verhalten verschiedener Moleküle und ihr Miteinander, in die dynamische Natur der Biologie und deren Abhängigkeit von äußeren Einflüssen. Wir können heute auch erkunden, welche physischen Konsequenzen unsere alltäglichen Entscheidungen verursachen und ob und in welcher Form diese uns im Alter stärken oder schwächen. Und doch gibt es noch eine Menge Aspekte, die bislang unentdeckt sind oder gerade zum allerersten Mal in den Fokus rücken. Der menschliche Körper ist ein absolutes Wunderwerk der Natur, im Großen wie auch im ganz Kleinen. Der wissenschaftliche Fortschritt, die immer bessere medizinische Versorgung, die Zurückdrängung natürlicher Feinde, das steigende Hygienebewusstsein, das wachsende Wissen über Ernährung und die Wichtigkeit von körperlicher und psychischer Gesundheit ? all das trägt dazu bei, dass wir im 21. Jahrhundert wesentlich länger leben als unsere Vorfahren. Neben diesen in erster Linie äußeren Komponenten, hängt das Altwerden auch von inneren Faktoren ab, denn jeder Organismus, vom Mensch bis zum Bakterium, verändert sich mit der Zeit ? altert also. Doch was bedeutet das überhaupt? Umfang: 184 S. ISBN: 978-3-8000-8070-0

Inhalt:Entertainment Weekly hails the Secret, Book, and Scone Society series by the beloved New York Times bestselling author as "a love letter to reading." In this entrancing new story, bookshop owner, bibliotherapist, and occasional sleuth Nora Pennington must enlist the help of her brilliant, brassy librarian friend to unravel the connection between The Scarlet Letter, an obscure 19th century writer, and a dead hiker . . .
While January snow falls outside in Miracle Springs, North Carolina, Nora Pennington is encouraging customers to cozy up indoors with a good book. Even though the shop and her bibliotherapy sessions keep Nora busy during the day, her nights are a little too quiet—until Deputy Andrews pulls Nora into the sci-fi section and asks her to help him plan a wedding proposal.
His bride-to-be, Hester, loves Little Women, and Nora sets to work arranging a special screening at the town's new movie theater. But right before the deputy pops the question, Nora makes an unsettling discovery—someone has mutilated all her store's copies of The Scarlet Letter, slicing angrily into the pages wherever Hester Prynne's name is mentioned.
The coincidence disturbs Nora, who's one of the few in Miracle Springs who knows that Hester gave up a baby for adoption many years ago. Her family heaped shame on her, and Hester still feels so guilty that she hasn't even told her future husband. But when a dead man is found on a hiking trail just outside town, carrying a rare book, the members of the Secret, Book, and Scone Society unearth a connection to Hester's past. Someone is intent on bringing the past to light, and it's not just Hester's relationship at stake, but her life . . "Captivating . . . Bibliophilic cozy fans will be in heaven." -Publishers Weekly Standort: Overdrive Onleihbibliothek ISBN: 978-1-4967-2646-9
TIKTOK BOOK AWARDS WINNER 2023 "Nearly everything I know about love, I've learnt from my long-term friendships with women." I know that love can be loud and jubilant. It can be dancing in the swampy mud and the pouring rain at a festival and shouting "YOU ARE AMAZING" over the band. It's laughing until you wheeze. It's walking along the street together on a Saturday night and feeling an entire city is yours. I also know that love is a pretty quiet thing. It's lying on the sofa together drinking coffee, talking about where you're going to go that morning to drink more coffee. It's folding down pages of books you think they'd find interesting. I know that love happens under the splendour of fireworks and sunsets, but also happens when you're lying on blow-up airbeds in a childhood bedroom, sitting in A&E or in the queue for a passport. Everything I Know About Love is a celebration of our female friendships, of our messy years, and of growing up together. Glittering with wit, heart, and humour, it's a book to share with every woman you've ever been lucky enough to call a friend. ***** WHAT READERS ARE SAYING: 'A book every girl in her 20s needs to read' 'I'll never stop recommending this book' 'This is my comfort book! I LOOOOVE THIS BOOK TO MY CORE' 'I wish I could read it for the first time again' A Sunday Times bestseller, September 2022 TikTok Book Awards Winner, August 2023
Comprising one finished novel, Lady Susan, which was published posthumously, and two unfinished fragments, Sanditon and The Watsons, this collection - full of melodrama and burlesque, and exploring a range of literary styles and social classes - spans the entirety of Jane Austen's writing life.The epistolary novel Lady Susan is the darkly humorous tale of the amatory schemes and machinations of an ambitious and unprincipled coquette. The Watsons is the tale of the refined and well-educated Emma Watson, forced by the second marriage of her aunt to return to the house of her impecunious father and face the marital plots and intrigues of her sisters. Begun in the last few months of Jane Austen's life, Sanditon, set in a fast-growing former fishing village, swiftly becoming a fashionable resort, pokes fun at the inhabitants of the new coastal town, with all their hypochondria, witlessness and self-obsession.
#1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey launches a super sexy sports romance series with a rom-com about a bad boy professional athlete who falls for his biggest fan...
Wells Whitaker was once golf's hottest rising star, but lately, all he has to show for his "promising" career is a killer hangover, a collection of broken clubs, and one remaining supporter. No matter how bad he plays, the beautiful, sunny redhead is always on the sidelines. He curses, she cheers. He scowls, she smiles. But when Wells quits in a blaze of glory and his fangirl finally goes home, he knows he made the greatest mistake of his life.
Josephine Doyle believed in the gorgeous, grumpy golfer, even when he didn't believe in himself. Yet after he throws in the towel, she begins to wonder if her faith was misplaced. Then a determined Wells shows up at her door with a wild proposal: be his new caddy, help him turn his game around, and split the prize money. And considering Josephine's professional and personal life is in shambles, she could really use the cash...
As they travel together, spending days on the green and nights in neighboring hotel rooms, sparks fly. Before long, they're inseparable, Wells starts winning again, and Josephine is surprised to find a sweet, thoughtful guy underneath his gruff, growly exterior. This hot man wants to brush her hair, feed her snacks, and take bubble baths together? Is this real life? But Wells is technically her boss and an athlete falling for his fangirl would be ridiculous... right?
All Beau Montgomery, one of Charleston's most eligible bachelors, wants to do is build boats. He has no interest in marriage whatsoever ... until it means he might not get his inheritance and he can kiss his boat building dreams goodbye. But the hungry hordes of Charleston debutantes looking to score a Montgomery scare him sh*tless. Gwen has loved Beau Montgomery since she used to run barefoot around the marina as scrappy teenager. Knowing she'll never fit into his high society family, she decided long ago that she'd become his indispensable best friend rather than not be in his life at all. When he tells her he needs to marry in order to fulfill his dreams, she panics that he might actually meet someone and she'll lose him forever.
The more Gwen helps Beau out with his predicament, the closer and more confusing their feelings become until Beau must risk it all for a shot at the future he so desperately wants. IRRESISTIBLE BEAU was formerly published as "Inconvenient Wife"

Inhalt:GMA BOOK CLUB PICK • ONE OF PEOPLE MAGAZINE'S BEST BOOKS OF SUMMER • An outrageously funny debut novel about a woman who moves to a small beach town looking for peace, only to find herself in an all-out war with her neighbors. “Irreverent and unexpectedly tender, this story takes neighborhood feuding to new heights and finds beauty and reinvention in unlikely places." —Oprah Daily "Brings a tongue-in-cheek tone to the beach read genre."—TIME When Kathleen Deane’s husband, Tom, tells her he's no longer happy with his life and their marriage, Kathleen is confused. They live in Kansas. They’ve been married thirty years. Who said anything about being happy? But with Tom off finding himself, Kathleen starts to think about what she wants. And her thoughts lead her to a small beach community on the east coast, a town called Whitbey that has always looked lovely in the Christmas letters her childhood friend Josie sends every year. It turns out, though, that life in Whitbey is nothing like Josie’s letters. Kathleen’s new neighbor, Rosemary, is cantankerous, and the town’s supervisor won't return Kathleen’s emails, but worst of all is the Sugar Cube, the monstrosity masquerading as a holiday home that Kathleen’s absentee neighbors are building next door to her quaint (read: tiny) cottage. As Kathleen gets more and more involved in the fight against the Sugar Cube and town politics overall, she realizes that Whitbey may not be a fairytale, but it just might be exactly what she needed. Save What’s Left can best be described as the “un-beach read.” It pulls back the curtain on life in a beach town, revealing the true cost of a pretty view. Told from the candid and irreverent perspective of a newcomer turned local, this is a story of forgiveness, fortitude, and second chances. Standort: Overdrive Onleihbibliothek ISBN: 978-0-593-46918-7

Inhalt:#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Don’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher! Jack Reacher is back! The “utterly addictive” (The New York Times) series continues as acclaimed author Lee Child teams up with his brother, Andrew Child, fellow thriller writer extraordinaire.
“One of the many great things about Jack Reacher is that he’s larger than life while remaining relatable and believable. The Sentinel shows that two Childs are even better than one.”—James Patterson
As always, Reacher has no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there. One morning he ends up in a town near Pleasantville, Tennessee. But there’s nothing pleasant about the place. In broad daylight Reacher spots a hapless soul walking into an ambush. “It was four against one” . . . so Reacher intervenes, with his own trademark brand of conflict resolution. The man he saves is Rusty Rutherford, an unassuming IT manager, recently fired after a cyberattack locked up the town’s data, records, information . . . and secrets. Rutherford wants to stay put, look innocent, and clear his name. Reacher is intrigued. There’s more to the story. The bad guys who jumped Rutherford are part of something serious and deadly, involving a conspiracy, a cover-up, and murder—all centered on a mousy little guy in a coffee-stained shirt who has no idea what he’s up against. Rule one: if you don’t know the trouble you’re in, keep Reacher by your side. Standort: Overdrive Onleihbibliothek EAN: penguinrandom

From the author of Still Beating comes another standalone forbidden romance turning something broken into something beautiful.
Want to know what happens to a man who barely claws his way out of a tragedy, only to fall right into the arms of the one girl in the world he isn't allowed to love? Another tragedy, that's what.
When Brant was six years old, his father made a choice that altered the course of his entire life. Because of what he did, the only girl Brant ever loved became the only girl he couldn't have.
Though in a lot of ways, he did have her...
He had her first steps, her first words, her first smile. He had her milestones, her heartbreaks, her dreams. He had her heart so woven in with his, he didn't know where she ended, and he began. Only, as the years pressed on, lines became blurred-and the blurrier the line, the easier it is to cross.
They say tragedy comes in threes. For Brant, that was true. The first one changed him, the second one broke him, and the third one healed him. But at the center of all that tragedy, there is a love story.
And at the center of that love story, there is June.
