About this book
De zeventienjarige Sofia heeft de zorg voor haar zieke vader Harold op zich genomen. Samen wonen ze in een huis in Italië dat ze cynisch Hotel Sofia noemt. In oude fotoalbums ontdekt ze dat haar vader in zijn studententijd drie vrienden had met wie hij lief en leed deelde. Waarom heeft hij geen contact meer met zijn vrienden? Sofia weet ze te achterhalen. Ze besluiten naar Italië te reizen om na 28 jaar hun oude vriend te bezoeken voordat hij sterft. Ingenieus opgebouwd als een mozaïekvertelling gaat "Hotel Sofia" over de essentie van vriendschap, het Boekenweekthema van 2012.

International dispute settlement
J.G. Merrills
"A guide to the techniques and institutions used to solve international disputes, how they work and when they are used. This textbook looks at diplomatic (negotiation, mediation, inquiry and conciliation) and legal methods (arbitration, judicial settlement). It uses many, often topical, examples of each method in practice to place the theory of how things should work in the context of real-life situations and to help the reader understand the strengths and weaknesses of different methods when they are used. It also looks at organisations such as the International Court and the United Nations and has been fully updated to include the most recent arbitrations, developments in the WTO and the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, as well as case law from the International Court of Justice"--Provided by publisher.
The art of pausing
Judith Valente
"The poems and reflections in The Art of Pausing: Meditations for the Overworked and Overwhelmed are the work of three writers who inhabit very different worlds. But for each, the reading and writing of haiku is an essential spiritual practice. The Art of Pausing is built upon haiku by one of the three authors, all Christians, inspired by the ninety-nine names of God found in the Koran. Each haiku is accompanied by a reflections by the same author or an abstract photo of nature by Brother Paul. This book is for anyone who loves beauty, has a penchant for reflection, yet feels overworked and overwhelmed."--Amazon.com.
