"Anfang hat er selber keinen" ist ein Buch zum Vorlesen fur die ganze Familie. Meistens wird bei Bibelausgaben zwischen solchen fur Erwachsene und Kinder unterschieden. Dieses Buches will alle Altersstufen ansprechen. Die Bilder sind nicht nur Momentaufnahmen, sondern zeigen teilweise mehrere Szenen der Geschichte gleichzeitig. Sie machen das Werk zu einem Familienprojekt, das sich uber ein Vierteljahrhundert von 2000 bis 2025 erstreckt und auch die Entwicklung des Malstils der Bruder sichtbar macht. Zwischendurch werden biblische Inhalte in einem Uberblick zusammengefasst. So ist eine "vollstandige" Bibelausgabe zustande gekommen. Darin werden Geschichten nacherzahlt, die von dem Gott handeln, der nicht aufhort, anzufangen. Als poetische "Bibellese" will dieses Buch naturlich auch Lust auf das Original machen.

A theory of politics that looks at what did not happenor non-eventsto explain policy change, economic development, democratization, and autocratization.Anticipating Instability puts forward a general theory of politics that attempts to explain the very many destabilizing political events in history that did not happen. Although most of us do not pay close attention to what did not occur, research shows that fear of non-events does more to redefine how people are governed than does the actual realization of coups and revolutions.In unraveling the dogs that didnt bark, Bruce Bueno de Mesquita and Alastair Smith analyze how, when, and why leaders who believe their hold on power is at risk focus their political survival efforts on adjusting their policy choices or shifting their governments accountability. Such adjustments are the essential factors that determine whether a society becomes freer, more transparent, and prosperousor more oppressive, corrupt, and impoverished.The book is unique in that it develops a general theory of politics using game theory reasoning and then tests dozens of hypotheses derived from the theorys logic using both statistical methods and illustrative case studies.

The first English-language translation (with rich historical introduction and extensive annotation) of a key group of Indian Buddhist tantric texts that have had profound influence on the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.The Seven Siddhi Texts is a key collection of Indian Buddhist tantric exegetical treatises that have shaped the interpretation of unexcelled yoga tantra and Mahamudra (Great Seal) practice in Tibet from the eighth century CE to the present. The scholar-yogi authors of these seven textsdrawing upon their scriptural knowledge and personal insightclarify the intended meanings underlying cryptic, seemingly antinomian passages in root tantras such as the Esoteric Community Tantra (Guhyasamaja-tantra) pertaining to sex, violence, and magical powers, which have proved controversial for many traditional and modern scholars. These seven treatises come from the famed mahasiddha (great adept) tradition, which often defied the rigid social, religious, and gender norms of premodern India in quest of nondual wisdom. The translators introduction places the collection in its Indian sociohistorical context, traces its reception in Tibetan Mahamudra practice lineages, and addresses modern misinterpretations. As a window into the earliest Indian Buddhist tantric communities, The Seven Siddhi Texts is a treasure for both practitioners and scholars of these increasingly popular subjects.
