Many audacious and improbable schemes for new railways were dreamed up in the nineteenth century, but surely none matched the plan to link the Cromford Canal with the Peak Forest Canal at Whaley Bridge in Derbyshire using a series of rope-worked inclines. This railway oddity opened in 1831 and somehow survived almost unnoticed until 1967, when there was a flurry of publicity when it closed. The line weaved its way through some of the finest scenery in England and was dotted with crazy gradients and whiplash curves. Here was the steepest normal railway in Britain and the only place where you could see a gradient post saying "1 in 8." It also used steam right to the end, by which time it had outlived many more illustrious undertakings. John Evans visited the line many times in its later years, his camera nearly always loaded with priceless color film. His pictures are published here for the first time, giving a unique view of a railway which was full of intrigue and history. Popular today with walkers and cyclists, the route of the Cromford & High Peak Railway refuses to die.

Most incidents of urban unrest in recent decades - including the riots in France, Britain and other Western countries - have followed lethal interactions between the youth and the police. Usually these take place in disadvantaged neighborhoods composed of working-class families of immigrant origin or belonging to ethnic minorities. These tragic events have received a great deal of media coverage, but we know very little about the everyday activities of urban policing that lie behind them.Over the course of 15 months, at the time of the 2005 riots, Didier Fassin carried out an ethnographic study in one of the largest precincts in the Paris region, sharing the life of a police station and cruising with the patrols, in particular the dreaded anti-crime squads. Far from the imaginary worlds created by television series and action movies, he uncovers the ordinary aspects of law enforcement, characterized by inactivity and boredom, by eventless days and nights where minor infractions give rise to spectacular displays of force and where officers express doubts about the significance and value of their own jobs. Describing the invisible manifestations of violence and unrecognized forms of discrimination against minority youngsters, undocumented immigrants and Roma people, he analyses the conditions that make them possible and tolerable, including entrenched policies of segregation and stigmatization, economic marginalization and racial discrimination.Richly documented and compellingly told, this unique account of contemporary urban policing shows that, instead of enforcing the law, the police are engaged in the task of enforcing an unequal social order in the name of public security.

Das Leben leben zu können bleibt immer dem einzelnen überlassen. Dem modernen Menschen, der auf Wissenschaft, Technik und politische Systeme vertraut, fehlt es jedoch an dieser Kunstfertigkeit. Anstatt darüber zu klagen, geht es dem Autor um die konkreten Fragen zu einer neuen Lebenskunst. Dazu kann die Philosophie einen entscheidenden Beitrag leisten. Die grundlegende Frage "Was soll ich tun?" hat in diesem Moment keinen moralischen, sondern einen existentiellen Sinn und zielt auf die Kunst der Existenz, aus dem abstrakten Leben ein eigenes werden zu lassen. Dazu dient das Nachdenken über den Umgang mit Gewohnheiten, Lüsten und Schmerzen, mit Zeit und Tod, über die Künste der Ironie, des "Negativdenkens", der Gelassenheit - einen Lebensstil, der auf die entscheidende Herausforderung der Zeit zu antworten vermag.

The Lake District mountains are full of mineral veins. Many have been discovered and worked over the past 1,000 years. Many still remain to be discovered. The last working metal-ore mine in the Lake District, the Force Crag Mine, closed in 1986. It is believed that mining commenced at Force Crag during the fifteenth century. Today, remains of this past extensive industry lie abandoned on the mountainsides and are now considered to be an iconic reflection of the Lake Districts industrial past. They blend in well with other iconic industrial structures such as stone walls, drove roads and fell farms that exist throughout the district. For many years now industrial historians have studied these workings and also the lives of the skilled miners who spent their careers high on Lake District mountainsides, working the veins. Concern for the loss of many of these ancient sites has developed over recent years. In 1989 a report produced by local industrial archaeologists highlighted a list of twenty-seven former mining sites on the fells considered to be of such exceptional importance to the history of the Lake District communities that they should be given future protection. Many of these sites have been included in this definitive illustrated guide. Autorid: Alastair Cameron, Liz Withey
