383 Seiten Zustand: Einband etwas berieben // Mit zahlreichen Abbildungen. Herausgegeben von Gunther Dietrich, Tomas Rodriguez Soto. Texte von Christoph Tannert, Uwe Warnke, Kurt Buchwald, Greta Garle, Fabiola Bierhoff Systematiker und Überspringer Kurt Buchwald ist ein Phänomen. Nicht nur, dass es ihm gelingt, in all seinen Projekten und Ausstellungskonzepten einen ungebrochen drängerischen Ton anzuschlagen. In jeder dieser bildästhetischen Handlungen erfindet er zugleich seine Sprache und damit nachgerade auch sich selbst vollkommen neu. Widerborstig und verschlossen hat er sich seit 1984 mit der Sicht" beschäftigt und als erste Handlung demonstrativ vor der Kamera die eigenen Sichtverhältnisse blockiert. Sein Aktivismus ist Protest und Ansage in einem. Es gab nicht viele Künstler und Künstlerinnen in der DDR, die so unverhohlen und absichtlich ein Anti" proklamierten und zwar öffentlich. Für mich war klar, hier verband ein Künstler sein Expertentum und seine intellektuelle Tätigkeit mit Moralvorstellungen. In der DDR sehnte man sich nach Menschen, die keine Verlautbarungen, sondern echte Botschaften aus unkonventionellen Perspektiven mitzuteilen hatten. Buchwald bot neue Lösungen an und seine Statements waren geistig und künstlerisch unabhängig von den Lautsprecherattitüden der herrschenden Ideologenelite. Am allgemeinen Wandel der Sozialfigur des künstlerisch öffentlich sichtbaren Intellektuellen in der DDR der 1980er Jahre hatte Buchwald nicht unwesentlich Anteil. Es hat keinen Künstler in der DDR gegeben, der mit Mitteln der Fotografie eine provokativere und umfangreichere mediale, politische und Ich-Erforschung betrieben hat.

"No one interested in the history of optics, the history of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century physics, or the general phenomenon of theory change in science can afford to ignore Jed Buchwald's well-structured, highly detailed, and scrupulously researched book. . . . Buchwald's analysis will surely constitute the essential starting point for further work on this important and hitherto relatively neglected episode of theory change."—John Worrall, Isis

2013 release. It was the last days of 1983 when Andreas Buchwald (guitars) and Andreas Gimpel (vocals) founded Remain In Silence. With a distinctive lead voice and melodically haunting guitar tunes layered over heavy basslines and straight drums, they soon established their characteristic sound - deeply melancholic, sonorous, and powerful. An inescapable emotional density permeates their songs. Early comparisons to the likes of Joy Division and The Cure soon became void as Remain In Silence care

It is 1928 when Hanno Buchwald is born in the only hospital in Linton, Indiana. As he grows up on an isolated one-hundred-acre farm far from gravel roads and playmates, Hanno helps care for his ailing grandfather, works in the fields and kitchen, and daydreams atop his family's grape arbor. Like almost every farm boy, Hanno learns how to kill a chicken, churn butter, and milk a cow. Left to his own devices for playing, Hanno attaches special importance to visitors that include his brothers' and parents' friends, relatives, neighbors, and salesmen. After he begins his education in a one-room schoolhouse, he learns all about life in the town of Linton from his adventurous aunt, who is among the first to have a phone and car. But just as Hanno enters adolescence, World War Ii begins, sending him on a new path that will test his inner-strength, convictions, and spirit in ways he never imagined. You'll Like Linton shares the coming-of-age tale of a young dreamer as he matures from a boy into a man in rural Indiana amid uncertain times in America and the world.

For five years running, Tony Kornheiser has been voted Washington, D.C.'s favorite columnist, over such luminaries as Buchwald, Barry, and George Will. Kornheiser's collection of columns is the laugh workout for a lifetime. "Pumping Irony is a laugh treat on every page."--Larry King, USA Today.

Dr. Buchwald is a pioneer in his own right, for having invented the first implantable infusion pump and his early work in bariatric surgery. Following an overview of general medicine and surgery going back to their origins, Gillison (emeritus consultant surgeon, UK), Buchwald (surgery and biomedical engineering, U. of Minnesota), and other international contributors treat the factors that helped birth surgical gastroenterology. The 16 illustrated chapters trace milestones in GI surgery and showcase its pioneers from Theodor Billroth, considered the father of such surgery, to those who brought us laparoscopic (minimally invasive) surgery and continent ileostomy. The appendix (appendectomies are discussed) contains biographical notes on key pioneers discussed. The volume is not indexed. U.S. distribution by BookMasters.

This book is an attempt to reconstitute the tacit knowledge—the shared, unwritten assumptions, values, and understandings—that shapes the work of science. Jed Z. Buchwald uses as his focus the social and intellectual world of nineteenth-century German physics. Drawing on the lab notes, published papers, and unpublished manuscripts of Heinrich Hertz, Buchwald recreates Hertz's 1887 invention of a device that produced electromagnetic waves in wires. The invention itself was serendipitous and the device was quickly transformed, but Hertz's early experiments led to major innovations in electrodynamics. Buchwald explores the difficulty Hertz had in reconciling the theories of other physicists, including Hermann von Helmholtz and James Clerk Maxwell, and he considers the complex and often problematic connections between theory and experiment. In this first detailed scientific biography of Hertz and his scientific community, Buchwald demonstrates that tacit knowledge can be recovered so that we can begin to identify the unspoken rules that govern scientific practice.
