A Shadow Dark and Daring

release date: Apr 13, 2027
A Shadow Dark and Daring
Return to the “magically rich” world of A Diamond Bright and Broken in its stunning sequel. With war between Unremarkables and the magi looming on the horizon, time is running out for the Everyfolk to train their forces to protect the innocent and stop the bloodshed. Before the fighting breaks out, Cadence must learn to master her promised multi-colored abilities. But with every clear diamond tear shed, Cadence wonders if her power—and herself—is worth anything at all. Having now reunited with two members of her old gang, the Prowlers, Raven struggles to balance her new relationship with her love of thievery. Can Raven discover what she truly wants out of life? Allegra has been cleared for combat, but her neuromuscular disorder still produces debilitating flare-ups. Training to wield a weapon might prove too much for Allegra, but she refuses to give up without a fight. Despite love and loss complicating every turn, Cadence, Raven, and Allegra must prove they have what it takes to step out of the shadows and defend their new home.

L'illusion anti-âge

release date: Nov 21, 2025
L'illusion anti-âge
Vivre plus longtemps ? Oui. Mais avec bon sens. Ce livre fait le tri entre les promesses de salut, les effets de mode et les mythes autour de la vie éternelle. De manière fondée, compréhensible et sans spéculation, il explique ce que la recherche moderne sur le vieillissement sait réellement : que sont les sénolytiques ? Que peut apporter la reprogrammation ? Quels sont les bienfaits du jeûne ? Et qu''est-ce qui relève simplement du charlatanisme en blouse blanche ? Entre biologie cellulaire, épigénétique, big tech et biopolitique, ce livre raconte l''histoire d''une révolution, sans toutefois l''idéaliser. Il montre comment nous pouvons influencer biologiquement le vieillissement, où se situent les limites et pourquoi la plus grande illusion est de considérer le vieillissement comme un problème surmontable. Un appel à l''information. Une invitation à repenser les choses. Et un plaidoyer pour mieux vieillir, plutôt que pour une vie supposée éternelle. Depuis 2005, Bremen University Press a publié plus de 4 800 ouvrages spécialisés dans différentes langues. 1re édition 2025

L'illusione anti-invecchiamento

release date: Nov 21, 2025
L'illusione anti-invecchiamento
Vivere più a lungo? Sì, ma con buon senso. Questo libro fa chiarezza sulle promesse di salvezza, le mode e i miti che circondano la vita eterna. In modo fondato, comprensibile e senza speculazioni, spiega ciò che la moderna ricerca sull''invecchiamento sa davvero: cosa sono i senolitici? Cosa può fare la riprogrammazione? Quali sono i benefici del digiuno? E cosa è semplicemente ciarlataneria in camice da laboratorio? Tra biologia cellulare, epigenetica, big tech e biopolitica, questo libro racconta la storia di una rivoluzione, ma senza idealizzarla. Mostra come possiamo influenzare biologicamente l''invecchiamento, dove sono i limiti e perché la più grande illusione è quella di considerare l''invecchiamento un problema superabile. Un appello all''informazione. Un invito a ripensare. E un appello per un invecchiamento migliore, invece di una vita apparentemente infinita. Bremen University Press ha pubblicato oltre 4.800 libri specialistici in diverse lingue dal 2005. Prima edizione 2025

La ilusión del antienvejecimiento

release date: Nov 21, 2025
La ilusión del antienvejecimiento
¿Vivir más tiempo? Sí. Pero con sentido común. Este libro aclara las promesas de salvación, las exageraciones y los mitos que rodean la vida eterna. De forma fundamentada, comprensible y sin especulaciones, explica lo que realmente sabe la investigación moderna sobre el envejecimiento: ¿Qué son los senolíticos? ¿Qué puede hacer la reprogramación? ¿Qué aporta el ayuno? ¿Y qué es simple charlatanería con bata de laboratorio? Entre la biología celular, la epigenética, la gran tecnología y la biopolítica, este libro cuenta la historia de una revolución, pero sin idealizarla. Muestra cómo podemos influir biológicamente en el envejecimiento, dónde están los límites y por qué la mayor ilusión es considerar el envejecimiento como un problema que se puede vencer. Un llamamiento a la información. Una invitación a cambiar de mentalidad. Y un alegato a favor de un envejecimiento mejor, en lugar de una vida supuestamente infinita. Bremen University Press ha publicado más de 4800 libros especializados en diferentes idiomas desde 2005. 1.a edición 2025

The Anti-Aging Illusion

release date: Jul 01, 2025
The Anti-Aging Illusion
Live longer? Yes. But please, with common sense. This book clears up the promises, hype, and myths surrounding eternal life. Well-researched, understandable, and without speculation, it explains what modern aging research really knows: What are senolytics? What can reprogramming do? What are the benefits of fasting? And what is simply quackery in a lab coat? Between cell biology, epigenetics, big tech, and biopolitics, this book tells the story of a revolution—but without romanticizing it. It shows how we can biologically influence aging, where the limits lie, and why the greatest illusion is to think of aging as a problem that can be defeated. A call for enlightenment. An invitation to rethink. And a plea for better aging—instead of a supposedly endless life. Bremen University Press has published over 4,800 specialist books in various languages since 2005.

Die Anti-Aging Illusion

release date: Jul 01, 2025
Die Anti-Aging Illusion
Länger leben? Ja. Aber bitte mit Verstand. Dieses Buch räumt auf – mit Heilsversprechen, Hypes und Mythen rund um das ewige Leben. Fundiert, verständlich und ohne Spekulation erklärt es, was die moderne Alternsforschung wirklich weiß: Was sind Senolytika? Was kann Reprogrammierung? Was bringt Fasten? Und was ist schlicht Quacksalberei im Labormantel? Zwischen Zellbiologie, Epigenetik, Big Tech und Biopolitik erzählt dieses Buch die Geschichte einer Revolution – aber ohne Verklärung. Es zeigt, wie wir Altern biologisch beeinflussen können, wo die Grenzen liegen, und warum die größte Illusion darin besteht, Altern für ein besiegbares Problem zu halten. Ein Aufruf zur Aufklärung. Eine Einladung zum Umdenken. Und ein Plädoyer für ein besseres Altern – statt einem vermeintlich endlosen Leben. Bremen University Press hat seit 2005 über 4.800 Fachbücher in verschiedenen Sprachen publiziert.

A Diamond Bright and Broken
Sixteen-year-old Cadence was born with the ability to cry tears of diamonds–a secret talent her parents have abused to climb the royal ranks thanks to the infinite source of wealth. At their command, she cries diamonds to pay for the pricey treatments for her sister’s neuromuscular disorder. Regardless of the pain, she’ll do anything for her sister, who weakens by the day. When the prince heckles Cadence at the King''s Summer Solstice Ball about her sister’s disability while dancing in the ballroom, she''s left on the verge of tears, threatening to expose her power. She is saved by a mysteriously charming girl who sweeps in to take the next dance—and the single diamond Cadence cried. The stranger reveals the Magi Queen sent her to tell Cadence that she''s a mage, and that her power is a curse. Yearning to discover the secrets behind her powers, Cadence sets off for the City of Magi. To claim the life she wants, Cadence must embrace her power—before she loses the bright spots in her otherwise sad existence. After all, even diamonds can shatter.

The Interconnectedness of Jonathan Edwards's Ontology and Trinitarianism

release date: Jan 01, 2021
The Interconnectedness of Jonathan Edwards's Ontology and Trinitarianism
Jonathan Edwards scholarship has been divided in recent years on the correct interpretation of his work. Scholars like Sang Hyun Lee and Amy Plantinga Pauw maintain that Edwards used a radically new dispositional ontology to understand the fundamental realities of nature. Oliver Crisp, Kyle Strobel, and Steve Studebaker have argued that Edwards used an essentialist ontology. I will defend the latter position and explain how it is tied to Edwards's Trinitarianism. I argue for an interpretation of Edwards that situates him in his historical and theological context. The early modern philosophy of his day was marked by essentialist ontology. The Reformed tradition of his day was marked by understanding the Trinity in an orthodox way. I argue that Edwards combined both of these themes in his philosophy and theology. This made for a unique understanding of ontology and Trinitarianism, but Edwards remained within the bounds of the philosophy and theology of his time.

Horsemanship

release date: Jan 08, 2015
Horsemanship
Holly truly does get to the heart of the matter. This book delivers far more than you could imagine and way more than the title. No stone is left unturned whilst Holly shares with us her insights and her wealth of knowledge. Holly's philosophy is very grounded and based on positive ethical and practical ways to best understand and live in harmony with horses. Holly has the perfect web address Centaur Horsemanship because this is the ultimate goal. To truly have a Centaur Relationship. Holly is concerned with the heart and the soul of horsemanship that is the horse and human connection. She shares ways to get us to think outside the box (excuse the pun). We are asked to be mindful, really mindful! to consider our horses in ways that we might not have normally given ourselves time to consider let alone accomplish. Holly asks us to consider not only their innate needs but their unique personality and therefore their strengths and weakness as well as their desires. Each horse is motivated in a different way; do we truly know our horse and his needs outside of the fundamental food shelter and safety? Can we be an interesting and imaginative partner and friend, are we positively enhancing our horses natural gifts or simply frustrating them by not even recognising their strengths. The amount and depth of information Holly has shared in this book will benefit horses and humans everywhere. Much more than Myth Magic and Mayhem, Holly provides insightful information on why things go wrong (part of The Mayhem) and then shares how to put them right, whether that be transporting or working in liberty, ground skills and ridden (part of The Magic). When I say no stone is left un-turned I mean it, she seems to have covered huge areas including nutrition too! So, without wishing to take too much of the magic from the book I will summarise it in this one statement that Holly makes because it is such a powerful truth. "We have a choice; a choice to feel or not to feel the horse. When we deny ourselves and our horse this sacred connection, never can we expect to have the depth of trust and knowing that so many of us say we have been seeking"
