| markus ruhl 2022: Beer, Fire, and Cultural Evolution Conrad Riker, What If Civilization’s Greatest Secrets Were Buried in Your D.N.A.? Why did every empire from Sumeria to Silicon Valley rise on fire, fermentation, and masculine rites—while modern men beg for validation? How did feminists and pharma turn trust-building ale into a crutch—and weaponize “vulnerability” to fracture brotherhoods? Can you resurrect the ethereal tools that forged kings—or will you rot in the dopamine-soaked gutter of soycietal collapse? Why beer wasn’t just a Mesopotamian drink—it was God’s contract with men to build ziggurats and nations. The Viking mead-hall code: How drunken storytelling became the algorithm for loyalty, war, and legacy. Banned rituals: From Eleusinian psychedelic rites to sacred combat—and why their destruction birthed weak men. Testosterone vs. Twinkies: How processed foods and TikTok drain your vigor—and the carnivore cure they fear. Monastic moonshiners vs. the State: The 1,500-year war to control alcohol—and your mind. Psychedelics as spiritual warfare: Silicon Valley’s microdosing elites and the gov’t programs that tried to erase them. Rebuild your tribe: Cold plunges, chessboxing, and covenant bonds that defy feminist sabotage. From Gilgamesh to Bezos: The Brewer-King archetype—and why your destiny demands dominion, not therapy. If you want to incinerate woke lies, master the primal sciences of fire and fermentation, and lead like the kings in your blood—buy this book before it’s banned. |
| markus ruhl 2022: European Yearbook of International Economic Law 2023 Jelena Bäumler, Christina Binder, Marc Bungenberg, Markus Krajewski, Giesela Rühl, Christian J. Tams, Jörg Philipp Terhechte, Andreas R. Ziegler, 2024-10-17 The focus of volume 14 of the EYIEL is on “(Public) Procurement and Competition Law in European and International Economic Law”. It is testimony to the fact that areas of law originally perceived as purely economic are permeated by the challenges of society today and adapting to these by embracing innovation, promoting sustainability and social responsibility and including new values in their legal constitutions. Thus, the focus section provides a broad spectrum of contributions considering the interaction between (public) procurement law and WTO law, the role of RTAs, the inclusion of sustainability aspects as well as the influence recent development and challenges such as the Covid-19 pandemic and climate change have on public procurement and competition policy. In its general section the EYIEL considers “Current Challenges, Developments and Events in European and International Economic Law”. It provides a cross-section of recent developments touching upon the Next Generation EU, food commodification, new regulatory approaches to geographical indications, the interaction between investment law and human rights as well as the newest developments with regard to Public-Private Partnership Legislation. |
| markus ruhl 2022: Patents and Global Administrative Law David Tilt, 2025-07-18 The book applies values and concepts from Global Administrative Law (GAL) to international patent law, demonstrating how limiting technocratic and overly economic language can be. Highlighting the administrative foundations of patent law, the book argues that, in its international form, it can be analysed using the same principles of participation, transparency, and accountability found in national administrative law. At the heart of the book is a simple question: What does international patent law look like when we approach it through the lens of these values? What is being left out when patent law is described predominantly in terms of its technical legal provisions or economic impact? The book presents three interrelated contexts: EU patent law, bilateral trade agreements, and the multilateral space. Modern patent law is increasingly discussed in terms of national competitiveness or economic potential, which reveals only a narrow understanding of how patent law evolves and functions. The vocabulary of administrative law provides a fresh way of recasting, reframing, and re-describing the dynamics of international patent law in a way that is more accessible to those outside of a traditional patent scholarship audience. A fundamental objective of the book is to challenge the tendency towards technocratic isolation in patent law. The book uses accessible vocabulary and represents a new way of conceptualising and understanding how patent law develops on a global scale. The book will be of interest to researchers in the field of patent law, international law, and administrative law. |

| markus ruhl 2022: The Three Muscleteers Ed Connors, 2022-04-12 The Three Muscleteers is the story of Gold’s Gym and what’s now known around the world as the fitness industry. Not long ago, athletes of most popular sports — football, basketball, baseball — never lifted weights. Coaches and trainers, even doctors, were against it, especially for women. The film Pumping Iron, which made Arnold Schwarzenegger a star, was shot at Gold’s Gym. That, along with the explosion of bodybuilding competitions that followed throughout the ‘80s was a “big bang” moment. Thanks to the trifecta of Joe Weider’s fitness magazines, Arnold’s stardom, and Gold’s Gym, the fitness industry was transformed. As one of the three owners of Gold’s Gym during its golden years, Ed Connors will inspire with his success stories of hundreds of visitors to his home in Venice, CA (only blocks from Gold’s Gym). Visitors he believed were destined for greatness, like action film star and WWE champion John Cena, who helped make Gold’s Gym the Mecca and the largest gym chain in the world. Ed believes life is half fate and half what you do with it. The Three Muscleteers amplifies the importance of taking risks, creating the perfect team, and never giving up — inspiring bodybuilders, wrestlers, athletes, actors, architects, CEOs, and anyone willing to take a chance to flex their own muscles. |

| markus ruhl 2022: Technology in Financial Markets Marco Dell'Erba, 2024-01-16 In recent years, technology has emerged as a disruptive force in the economy and finance, leading to the establishment of new economic and financial paradigms. Focusing on blockchain technology and its implementations in finance, Technology in Financial Markets proposes a novel theoretical approach to disruption. Relying on complexity science, it develops a dynamic perspective on the study of disruptive phenomena and their relationship to financial regulation and the law. It identifies the intrinsic interconnections characterizing the multidimensional technology-driven transformations, involving commercial practices, capital markets, corporate-governance, central banking, and financial networks. From this perspective, it considers the way they are reflected at the level of contract law, financial law, corporate law, central banking law. The book adopts a unique comparative approach and explains and clarifies the factual and historical dimensions underlying the emergence of the crypto-economy. In this book blockchain is used as a case study. Blockchain exemplifies the way each subpart of the financial system - commercial practices, financial markets, corporations, central banking, networks - and consequently each subcategory of financial regulation evolves on an individual basis. It shows how such subparts evolve altogether bringing systemic transformations, and ultimately leading to the creation of new economic and financial paradigms. The book considers both these perspectives, analysing the evolution of each subpart and emphasizing the interconnected transformations. In doing this, it adopts the structure of an ascending climax, starting from contracts, and escalating to increasingly broad dimensions, in particular capital markets, corporate governance, central banking, and financial networks. |
| markus ruhl 2022: Human Rights and Environmental Sustainability in State-Owned Enterprises Judith Schönsteiner, Markus Krajewski, 2024-09-02 This book presents case studies on the human rights performance of state-owned enterprises from four Latin American and three European countries, as well as foreign investments by Chinese state-owned enterprises on these continents. State-owned enterprises are considered among some of the worst perpetrators of contamination and corporate human rights violations around the globe, both domestically and abroad. This volume examines whether companies implement the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and how their state owners regulate or incentivize their human rights compliance. Studies cover different sectors ranging from finance to extractives and air transport in Brazil, Chile, China, Ecuador, Finland, France, Germany, and Mexico and allow contrasts between companies from countries with different degrees of human rights regulation, including due diligence and supply chain laws. The work shows that states are rather hesitant to implement the UN Guiding Principles “leading by example.” The book will be essential reading for academics, researchers, and policy-makers working in the areas of international human rights law, comparative administrative law, and corporate social responsibility. |

| markus ruhl 2022: Fortissimus Paul Ohl, 2022-09-28T00:00:00-04:00 Fortissimus est une première mondiale. Jamais auparavant dans l’histoire de la littérature le mythe universel de la force n’avait été exploré et présenté dans ses parcours initiatique et historique. Il révèle ses héros, leurs exploits, ainsi que l’envers de leurs gloires éphémères. Fortissimus remonte à quatre millénaires avant J.-C., au temps des Géants et des Titans, à l’épopée de Gilgamesh, en passant par les mythologies gréco-romaines avec Hercule, puis à l’histoire biblique avec les exploits et la tragédie de Samson. Depuis, la fascination pour la force a transcendé les époques et marqué toutes les civilisations. Fortissimus lève le voile sur les mythes, les mystères, les prouesses, les grandeurs et les drames de la fabuleuse planète des surhommes. Une mise en scène universelle qui a mobilisé les plus célèbres artistes, écrivains, promoteurs de spectacles, propriétaires de cirques, concepteurs de télévision, producteurs de cinéma et hommes d’affaires. Fortissimus, c’est une œuvre qui nous transporte au cœur de toutes les démesures et de tous les excès, relatée par un formidable conteur qui décline toutes les facettes de la force en s’attardant, au fil des siècles, au destin hors normes de ses plus grandes légendes d’ici et d’ailleurs. |

| markus ruhl 2022: Habits of Resilient Educators Lindsay Prendergast, Piper Lee, 2024-01-28 It’s time to shift the narrative — teaching should be joyful and teachers can feel successful...even in the face of challenging circumstances. During a time when many educators are leaving the profession, others have rolled up their sleeves and shined brightly through the challenges and pressures of the tumultuous education landscape. Countless others are just entering the field, eager to contribute and make an impact on the lives of their students. What can we learn from both of these types of teachers? What are the habits we know that enable teachers to be effective no matter the environment? And how do we build and sustain professional and personal practices that help us rise to every challenge? (Because let’s face it... there are a lot of challenges!) Habits of Resilient Educators answers these questions, providing teachers with the knowledge and tools necessary to develop habits that will create joyful, successful learning environments for themselves and their students. As a team of eternal optimists, authors Lindsay Prendergast and Piper Lee draw from their vast collective experience and research-based knowledge to show the crucial relationship between teacher well-being and student success. What’s more, they provide a practical framework that teachers can lean on to regain control of their mindset and their practice—despite the many factors outside of their control. This book helps teachers unlock their full potential by Exploring the why’s and how’s of nine habits such as collaborating, setting high expectations, using data to drive decisions, prioritizing effectively, and more Providing on-the-spot reflection boxes, note-catchers, and planning tools—as well as at-a-glance sounds like/looks like charts Offering a format that busy teachers can use personally, with a coach, or in a PLC; choose to focus on just one habit at a time, or do a jigsaw study with colleagues Sharing real-life stories of resilience and adaptation from educators that illustrate and bring each habit to life Detailing strategies you can use to navigate classroom challenges and develop a positive learning environment amid the complexities of contemporary education Whether you’re embarking on a personal growth journey or collaborating with colleagues through mentorship, coaching, or professional learning communities, turn to Habits of Resilient Educators to help you achieve teaching habits that will help you thrive, not just survive. |

| markus ruhl 2022: Design, Development and Sensemaking of Human-Robot Interaction in Care Settings Felix Carros, 2024-09-12 Social robots have significantly advanced in capabilities and availability, gradually becoming part of everyday life. Their new interactive features are relevant to the struggling care sector. As Western societies age, the demand for care services rises, yet the workforce does not grow at the same rate. This book explores the potential of social robots to support the workforce and enhance the well-being of residents in care homes. Using a socio-informatics approach, this research investigates how residents and caregivers interact with social robots, examines and facilitates their appropriation, and provides insights into the development of the robots' software and hardware. The research and development were carried out collaboratively in care homes with the people who work and live there. The findings indicate that social robots can be beneficial in care homes. They broaden the options for social care workers and, when integrated into daily routines, can provide brief respite periods. Additionally, they positively impact residents by engaging them in cognitive and physical activities. However, the robots can only assist, and not replace, care workers. |

| markus ruhl 2022: The Science of Grapevines Markus Keller, 2025-02-19 Fully revised and updated The Science of Grapevines, Fourth Edition is an introduction to the physical structure of the grapevine, its organs, their functions, and their interactions with the environment. Scientifically grounded and integrating discoveries in other plant species, it explores the physiological processes underlying grapevine form and function, their developmental and environmental control, and their implications for practical vineyard management. The book begins with a brief overview of the botanical classification, plant morphology and anatomy, and growth cycles of grapevines. It then covers the basic concepts in growth and development, water relations, photosynthesis and respiration, mineral uptake and utilization, and carbon partitioning. Then these concepts are put to use to understand plant-environment interactions including canopy dynamics, yield formation, and fruit composition. The book concludes with an introduction to stress physiology, including water and nutrient stresses, extreme temperatures, and the interaction with other organisms. Progress in the fields of grape cultivar evolution, grape ripening, and stress physiology has been rapid since edition 3 was published in 2020. Edition four reflects the latest insights into these and other key aspects of grapevine anatomy and physiology. Based on the author's more than 30 years of teaching, research, and practical experience with grapevines and grape production, this book provides an important guide to understanding this fascinating and economically important plant. As a textbook for students and a reference for scientists and industry professionals, the book enables readers to use the discussed scientific concepts in their own research or practical production systems. - Connects the science from initial decision making processes through plant cultivation to harvest and processing - Enables prediction of the consequences of actions in the vineyard and the diagnosis and mitigation of potential problems before they threaten the sustainability of grape production - Includes specific insights on canopy-environment interactions, yield formation, sources of variation in fruit composition and environmental constraints |
| markus ruhl 2022: Theorizing Ocean Governance: A Framework Combining Governance, Science, and Law Lena Schøning, 2024-10-14 Ocean governance is emerging as a field of study drawing on and combining different knowledge domains, including governance, science, and law. Assumptions of these three knowledge domains and their relationships are rarely discussed. This study attempts to contribute to such discussion by theory-building: investigating the governance-science and governance-law interfaces in an ocean governance context. The investigations form the basis for offering some perspectives concerning key topics of ocean governance: cross-sectoral, holistic, and integrated approaches, science-based decision-making, adaptation, the ecosystem approach, and ocean governance as an emerging field of study. |
| markus ruhl 2022: Routledge Handbook on Transnational Commercial Law Bruno Zeller, Camilla Baasch Andersen, 2025-02-21 This handbook, edited by Zeller and Andersen, is an indispensable contribution to the field of transnational commercial law. With an introduction by Sir Roy Goode, this book presents perspectives on legal issues of international sales transactions as perceived by world leading experts, exposing pragmatic and modern aspects of everything from drafting, to uniform laws, to dispute resolution. The book divides itself between fundamental knowledge of transnational commercial law (e.g. chapters on forum shopping, CISG, Cape Town Convention, etc.) and current and topical developments (e.g. chapters on blockchain, smart contracts, metaverse, digital assets, etc.). International or transnational trade during the past twenty years has become more and more important, outstripping domestic trade as a hallmark of economic success. Model laws developed by the United Nations and other international bodies are now being transplanted or ratified by countries, so a translational element must always be considered as part of any choice of law. Addressing a global audience, as the instruments dealt with herein apply to many states in different regions, this handbook aims not only at an undergraduate and graduate student audience but also will interest professional lawyers. |
| markus ruhl 2022: Human iPSC-derived Disease Models for Drug Discovery Markus H. Kuehn, Wei Zhu, 2023-11-23 Since their development a decade ago, human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) have revolutionized the study of human disease, given rise to regenerative medicine technologies, and provided exceptional opportunities for pharmacologic research. These cells provide an essentially unlimited supply of cell types that are difficult to obtain from patients, such as neurons or cardiomyocytes, or are difficult to maintain in primary cell culture. iPSC can be obtained from patients afflicted with a particular disease but, in combination with recently developed gene editing techniques, can also be modified to generate disease models. Moreover, the new techniques of 3 Dimensional printing and materials science facilitate the generation of organoids that can mirror organs under disease conditions. These properties make iPSC powerful tools to study how diseases develop and how they may be treated. In addition, iPSC can also be used to treat conditions in which the target cell population has beenlost and such regenerative approaches hold great promise for currently untreatable diseases, including cardiac failure or photoreceptor degenerations. |
| markus ruhl 2022: Alcohol and Alcohol-related Diseases Sebastian Mueller, Markus Heilig, 2023-10-24 Alcohol is one of the major risk factors for negative health outcomes worldwide. It accounts for more than 60 alcohol-related diseases, ranging from addiction, through liver cirrhosis, to cancer. Collectively, these conditions account for mortality and morbidity that make alcohol use one of the leading preventable causes of disability adjusted life-years (DALYs) lost globally. In this book, an international faculty covers all aspects of alcohol-related disorders, ranging from addiction/alcohol use disorders (AUD) to alcohol-related diseases of other organs such as liver, heart or cancer. A special focus is to reach out to primary care physicians who are in the front line of this major health problem. The book also provides an update for addiction specialists, as well as specialists in internal medicine, gastroenterology and hepatology. The book is divided into sections that include epidemiology, alcohol use disorders and addiction, alcohol-related liver disease, alcoholic hepatitis, primary care and interdisciplinary approaches and other alcohol-related diseases. Besides current diagnostic measures and treatment strategies, the book deals with the many underlying molecular and genetic mechanisms of alcohol toxicity. Novel insights include prospective data on all-cause mortality and the emerging major role of alcohol-mediated hemolysis and enhanced red blood cell turnover. The book also aims at guiding policy makers to handle the topic of alcohol in our society more responsibly. |

In his commanding autobiographical novel, Mitchell writes what it was to come of age in that time and place, with a break-out voice that's nothing less than extraordinary. The Residue Years switches between the perspectives of a young man, Champ, and his mother, Grace. Grace is just out of a drug treatment program, trying to stay clean and get her kids back. Champ is trying to do right by his mom and younger brothers, and dreams of reclaiming the only home he and his family have ever shared. But selling crack is the only sure way he knows to achieve his dream. In this world of few options and little opportunity, where love is your strength and your weakness, this family fights for family and against what tears one apart. Honest in its portrayal, with cadences that dazzle, The Residue Years signals the arrival of a writer set to awe. |

| markus ruhl 2022: Liquid Institutionalization at Sea Jan P.M. van Tatenhove, 2022-10-08 This book presents an innovative theory of liquid institutionalization at sea and explores the building blocks of this theory focusing in particular on institutionalization, blue governance arrangements, reflexivity and power. The book opens with an overview of stability and change in new institutional theory before moving on to discuss liquid institutionalization in more detail. The author applies this approach to three different cases: Arctic shipping; deep seabed mining; and transboundary regionalization in Europe. For each of these cases the book describes the emerging blue governance arrangements, the type of liquid institutionalization and the consequences this has for power and reflexivity. |
