Book excerpt: This is a biography of the remarkable life of Cleto Saporetti, Italian Prisoner of War in South Africa, who went on to become a highly successful poultry farmer and health-promoting philanthropist after his release. He founded and established the High Rustenburg Health Hydro, the first health resort of its kind in South Africa, and the Cleto Saporetti Foundation, a community-based health awareness and promotion organisation. Cleto's work through the Hydro and the Saporetti Foundation took health promotion services and activities to many thousands of less priviledged members of the Stellenbosch community. It also encouraged the introduction and integration of alternative health practises with conventional mainstream medicine. He was knighted by the Italian Government in recognition of his contribution to the people of South Africa without ever forgetting the land of his birth.

Book excerpt: With all the enormous resources that are invested in medicine, it is sometimes a mystery why there is so much sickness still in evidence. Our life span, though higher than at any time in history, has now leveled off and has not significantly increased in the last two generations. There is a one-third increase in long-term illness in the last 20 years and a 44% increase in cancer incidence, which are not related to demographic issues. In some modern countries, the level of morbidity (defined as days off work because of sickness) has increased by two thirds in this time. Despite $1 trillion spent on cancer research in 20 years, the "War On Cancer" has recently been pronounced a complete failure by the u. s. President's Cancer Panel. Evidently we still have a long way to go. The goal of "Health for All by the Year 2000" as the World Health Organization has put it, is another forgotten dream. As ever, the answer will be found in breaking out of the old philosophical patterns and discovering the new, as yet unacceptable concepts. The problems of medicine today require a Kuhnian breakthrough into new paradigms, and new ways of thinking. And these new ways will not be mere variations of the old, but radical departures. This book, and the conference upon which it was based, is part of a search for these new pathways.

Book excerpt: Looted Gold explodes the myth of the missing Kruger Millions with startling evidence that exposes for the first time the committed plundering of the Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek (ZAR) by the political elite over a period of years. The disappearance of the paltry amount of gold that left Pretoria in mid-1900 as President Paul Kruger retreated down the railway line towards Portuguese East Africa is placed in a context not considered in over 100 years. That gold has wrongly become known as the missing Kruger Millions. No one will ever be able to establish exactly how much gold and other treasure was siphoned out of the ZAR illegally during the turbulent period leading up to the declaration of war in 1899. Without doubt, the missing treasure amounts to billions of US dollars at today's values. For the first time, Looted Gold lays bare the role played by the Eloff family, key figures in Kruger's extended family. New Zealand combatant Thomas Brown exposed the Eloff complicity in the seizure of illicit gold. His eye witness accounts are included in his unpublished memoirs and in Looted Gold. The diligent gathering of scarce information from numerous sources will leave readers with little doubt that dark forces swirled around the tiny ZAR nation, the impacts of which are still felt to this day. While the unstoppable brute force of British imperialism finally overcame Kruger's oligarchic rule, other countries adopted a less confrontational and far more circuitous approach to entrenching themselves in the ZAR (and later South African) gold industry. Switzerland implemented a clandestine strategy by insinuated seasoned gold experts into the ZAR with a single end game in mind: to set up Switzerland as the world's foremost traders of gold. Read how did they set about achieving this goal? Many highly relevant questions remain unanswered. Secrets abound. What was the value of illicit funds flowing out of the ZAR to secret bank accounts? Was that accumulation of wealth simply for personal gain or were funds channelled into the achievement of political stratagems? Who continues more than a century later to hide the enormous wealth gained by underhand means during Kruger's reign? As late as March 2021 a collection of 910 historical Kruger ponds and half ponds was bought by the South Africa Mint. Will more gold from the Kruger era emerge from hidden vaults in years to come? Who has kept that gold hidden for over a century? The story that unfolds in Looted Gold will provide you with facts that have not been available until now. History is being rewritten. We invite you to read on and draw your own conclusions.

Book excerpt: André Masson Eine Mythologie der Natur erscheint begleitend zur Ausstellung im Museum Würth, Künzelsau vom 18. September 2004 bis 30. Januar 2005 André Masson (1896-1987), französischer Maler und Grafiker, studierte in Brüssel und Paris und wurde zu einem der Hauptvertreter des Surrealismus. Er nahm beachtlichem Einfluss auf eine nachrückende Künstlergeneration in den USA. Ursprünglich vom Kubismus beeinflusst öffnete sich ihm durch den Surrealismus der Zugang zu den psychologischen Quellen der Kunst, deren Tiefe er mit Hilfe des Auto-matismus auszuloten suchte. Eine wesentliche Inspiration nahm er aus der Natur, die er in eigenen, faszinierend gesteigerten mythologischen Metaphern ausdrückte. Das Museum Würth beleuchtet erstmalig diesen Aspekt seines Werkes anhand zahlrei-cher Gemälde und des bislang noch nie präsentierten Zeichenzyklus' "Sur le thème du désir". Der begleitende Katalogband ist reich an Abbildungen und umfasst Beiträge, die Thema und Werk Massons aufschlussreich analysieren.
