Killing for Profit
A terrifying true story of greed, corruption, depravity and ruthless criminal enterprise ... On the black markets of Southeast Asia, rhino horn is worth more than gold, cocaine and heroin. This is the chilling story of a two-year-long investigation into a dangerous criminal underworld and the merciless syndicates that will stop at nothing to obtain their prize. It is a tale of greed, folly and corruption, and of an increasingly desperate battle to save the rhino - which has survived for more than fifty million years - from extinction. Killing for Profit is a compelling, meticulous and revelatory account of one of the world's most secretive trades. It exposes the poachers, gangsters, con men, mercenaries, killers, gunrunners, diplomats, government officials and crime bosses behind the slaughter. And it follows the bloody trail from the front lines of the rhino wars in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Mozambique to the medicine markets of Vietnam and the lair of a wildlife-trafficking kingpin on the banks of the Mekong River in Laos...

Kielmeyer and the Organic World
Carl Friedrich Kielmeyer (1765-1844) was the ‘father of philosophy of nature’ owing to his profound influence on German Idealist and Romantic Naturphilosophie. With the recent growth of interest in Idealist and Romantic philosophy of nature in the UK and abroad, the importance of Kielmeyer’s work is being increasingly recognised and special attention is being paid to his influence on biology’s development as a distinct discipline at the end of the eighteenth century. In this exciting new book, Lydia Azadpour and Daniel Whistler present the first ever English translations of key texts by Kielmeyer, along with contextual and interpretative essays by leading international scholars, who are experts on the philosophy of nature and the formation of the life sciences in the late eighteenth century. The topics they cover include: the laws of nature, the concept of force, the meaning of ‘organism’, the logic of recapitulation, Kielmeyer and ecology, sexual differentiation in animal life and Kielmeyer’s relationship to Kant, Schelling and Hegel. In doing so, they provide a comprehensive English reference to Kielmeyer’s historical and contemporary significance.

Theodor Echtermeyer (1805-1844); Biographie und Quellenteil mit unveröffentlichten Texten
Diese Biografie ist der erste Versuch, Leben und Wirken des fast vergessenen führenden Junghegelianers Theodor Echtermeyer zu rekonstruieren. Obgleich infolge seines frühen Todes viele entscheidende Quellen nicht überliefert sind, gelingt es dem Autor, ein schlüssiges Bild von Echtermeyers Persönlichkeit zu entwerfen, seine Rolle als Initiator und Mitherausgeber der Hallischen Jahrbücher zu zeigen und seine bedeutende konzeptionelle Leistung anzudeuten. Ein Anhang von Texten, darunter drei Erstveröffentlichungen, unterstützt dieses Anliegen.

Killing Machines
What causes a Western democratic leader to stop even feigning to value the law of war? Unlike past US presidents, who at least paid lip service to the law of armed conflict, Donald Trump has openly flouted it: pardoning war criminals; denigrating the Geneva Conventions; praising torture; and discarding military norms of restraint. This gripping account depicts how Trump has upended assumptions about America's outward commitment to the law of war, exposing the conditions that make such defiance possible. Drawing on in-depth case studies and original survey analysis, Thomas Gift explains how Trump has relied on right-wing media and allies in Congress to attack the law of war – not in the shadows, but in broad daylight. Killing Machines cautions that Trump's approach is not an aberration – it's a playbook other leaders could follow. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Is Religion Killing Us?
A provocative look at the violent content of 'sacred scripture' and what Jews, Christians, and Muslims must do to re-vision their faiths away from justifying violence. Post 9/11 attention has focused on Islam as a violent religion, but Nelson-Pallmeyer shows that the Bible and the Quran both have ample violence-justifying content to support "holy" and other wars. The challenge, he maintains, is to acknowledge violence in "sacred scripture" and re-vision God's power.
