"Der schweinischste Film aller Zeiten" titelte die Bild-Zeitung zum Deutschlandstart von Basic Instinct am 21. Mai 1992. Heute ist die Aufregung kaum nachzuvollziehen. Die Filmgeschichte kennt viele Filme, die nach ihrem Erscheinen Wut, Abscheu oder Empörung hervorriefen und in ihrer Zeit zum Skandal wurden. Stefan Volk hat sich eine ganze Reihe dieser Film-skandale angeschaut: Warum wurde ein Film zum Skandalfilm? Welches Tabu wurde verletzt? Wie bewerten wir heute diesen Film? So ist ein unterhaltsames Buch entstanden, das den Wandel von Sitten und moralischen Vorstellungen schildert und zugleich belegt, dass Film auch immer das Medium der Provokation gewesen ist. Eine Auswahl der besprochenen Filme: Anders als die Anderen (1919, Richard Oswald), Das Goldene Zeitalter (1930, Luis Buñuel), Im Westen nichts Neues (1930, Lewis Milestone), Ekstase (1933, Gustav Machatý), Die Sünderin (1950, Willi Forst), Die Zeit mit Monika (1953, Ingmar Bergman), Peeping Tom (1959, Michael Powell), Das Schweigen (1963, Ingmar Bergman), Spur der Steine (1966, Frank Beyer), O.K. (1970, Michael Verhoeven), Nicht der Homosexuelle ist pervers, sondern die Situation, in der er lebt (1971, Rosa von Praunheim), Salò oder die 120 Tage von Sodom (1975, Pier Paolo Pasolini), Im Reich der Sinne (1976, Nagisa Oshima), Die Konsequenz (1977, Wolfgang Petersen), Das Gespenst (1982, Herbert Achternbusch), Maria und Joseph (1985, Jean-Luc Godard), Die letzte Versuchung Christi (1988, Martin Scorsese), Basic Instinct (1992, Paul Verhoeven), Kids (1995, Larry Clark), Funny Games (1997, Michael Haneke), Lolita (1997, Adrian Lyne), Idioten (1998, Lars von Trier), Baise-moi (2000, Virginie Despentes), Die Passion Christi (2004, Mel Gibson), Tal der Wölfe (2005, Serdar Akar) Zusätzliche Informationen finden sich auf der begleitenden Website www.skandalfilm.net

Just in time for the first anniversary of Billy Graham's death, Allison's reflection on the life and work of America's pastor is now available in paperback. New preface by the author, new to this edition. Billy Graham said, "You have no idea how sick I get of the name Billy Graham, and how wonderful and thrilling the name Christ sounds to my ears." So why another book about him? Lon Allison, evangelist himself, and popular evangelical pastor in Wheaton, Illinois, has learned much from Billy. Allison retells the highlights of what has been, by any objective account, a fascinating life, and tells it in a way that resonates with the Graham legacy of serving God and seeking to spread the Good News. Every stage of Graham's life is included, even the rough spots, with appreciation and a desire to answer the question: What can we learn from the life and ministry of Billy Graham? What is his legacy? What was his message and how might it still be relevant for today. "Many will welcome the intimate details of his life revealed by Allison. Their close relationship allows the author to present a 'bird's-eye view' of the evangelist." —David Gibson, Catholic News Service

Over 130 years ago, mountaineer Sir Hugh Munro published the first list of Munros – Scottish mountains with a height over 3,000 feet – and inspired the hobby of Munro 'bagging', a pastime which combines rugged adventure on a personal and literal journey around the Scottish Highlands with a nerdy compulsion to maintain a ticklist. Peak Bagging Munros Volume 1 by Nicola Hardy (Munroist number 6,765) features 64 routes designed to link up the 141 most southerly Munros so you can enjoy the challenge of 'compleating' them at your own pace – over years, months or, in rare cases, even just a few weeks. It presents not only the most efficient routes, but does so in such a way that each route is a fantastic walk or run in its own right. The featured routes include the iconic Ring of Steall and Ben Nevis via the Carn Mòr Dearg Arête, alongside classic entry-level walks up the likes of Ben Chonzie, Ben Lomond in Loch Lomond and the Trossachs and Mount Keen in the Cairngorms. To assist you in building an itinerary, the routes are split into ten Highland hubs which include Glencoe, Fort William, Braemar and Pitlochry. These are chosen to be easy to access and with decent public transport links to help you make environmentally sustainable choices when you can. Base yourself in a Highland hub for a long weekend or a lengthier stay, springboard to Munro routes from each hub and return to access the recommended local facilities including shops, pubs and cafes. In addition, the book is packed with useful information, including 1:40,000 scale maps, elevation profiles, route directions, public transport and parking details, refreshments, downloadable GPX files for each route, and custom timings for walkers, trekkers, fastpackers and runners. Along with stunning photography, there are rest day suggestions, accommodation ideas to suit multiple budgets and a series of supportive indices through which you can find suitable walks, whatever your current level of hillwalking experience. Whatever your timescale for compleating Scotland's Munros, Peak Bagging Munros Volume 1 is the indispensable guide to this Scottish hill challenge.
