Welcome 

Dear Partners around the Globe, 

We are happy to present you our current Guide titles of the spring program. 

Looking for something really special? 25 years ago, 16 nations under ESA started to build 

the largest telescope on earth: the Very Large Telescope in Chile. This fall it is our pleasure to 

publish a truly amazing large format photographic documentation of this human achievement. 

(Co-edtion available, see page 4) 

Next to our beautiful gardening and nature titles, we would like to draw your attention to 

both our Health titles under our imprint of Herbig (see pages 35 ff.) and our imprint 

Nymphenburger with titles on Body & Soul (see pages 39 ff.), here you can find titles 

ranging from Yoga (page 41) to personal development (page 42). 

Furthermore Kosmos is Germany’s leading publisher on books about dogs (pages 26 ff.). 

Next to our bestselling author Martin Rütter, who is Germany’s # 1 dog expert, we offer 

titles on specific breeds (page 29), and new trends like Vegetarian Diet for Dogs (page 28). 

Please let us know if you have requests for titles or would like to make an appointment 

in Bologna or London. 

Best wishes from the Kosmos license team 

Kirstin, Julia & Franzi

Gerhard Hüdepohl is an electrical 

engineer and photographer. He has 

been a photo ambassador for the 

European Southern Observatory since 

2010. His photographs are published 

worldwide in books, magazines, 

exhibitions and calendars. 

▶ For the 25th anniversary of the 

biggest astronomical observatory 

of the world 

VLT: the "Very Large Telescope" of the European Southern 

Observatory (ESO) is truly amazing. Four large telescopes 

were built in the Chilean Atacama desert and have been 

gazing into the depths of space for 25 years. The technology 

behind them is a remarkable feat, the operation in the 

driest desert of the world a challenge, and the observations 

have been honoured with the Nobel Prize. With exclusive 

images of the telescopes and the universe, this coffee-table 

book recounts the milestones of the observatory, shares 

many previously unpublished insights, and lets the beholder 

experience at first hand how cutting-edge astronomical 

research is conducted. A must-have for any astronomy fan!

ASTRONOMY

▶ How to take brilliant astrophotos, 

step by step – no previous knowledge 

necessary 

The sparkling Milky Way, colourful polar lights, shooting 

stars, or a lunar eclipse: the night sky offers many appealing 

motives for photos anyone with a modern camera 

can take. But which setting do I use? What exposure 

should I give the shot? What is the cell phone’s performance? 

And how will the photos be really impressive in 

the end? The renowned astrophotographer Stefan Seip 

offers a readily understandable course for beginners 

who want to take beautiful pictures of the night sky 

and to explore the depths of space at the same time. 

Stefan Seip is internationally 

renowned for outstanding astrophotographs. 

His photographs are 

published in daily newspapers, on 

German news television, and in 

many astronomy magazines. He has 

already published two books about 

astrophotography and offers many 

workshops on celestial photography:

▶ The annual planer for people new 

to raised beds: great yield right 

from the beginning 

The raised bed trend is here to stay with it many questions: 

Which vegetables do you sow or plant when? When is what 

ready for harvesting? And how do you have to refill the 

raised bed? This annual planer guides beginners securely 

through the year with a raised bed. The examples of beds 

with planting ideas for every phenological season are ideal 

to start with. The practical checklists help not to forget 

anything, and all the necessary tasks are easily explained in 

the instructions illustrated with photos. Profiles of plants 

with timeline help select the appropriate kinds of vegetables, 

herbs, and fruits for you own little organic garden. 


▶ Slow flowers: sustainable blossoms 

in the garden and house 

Cut flowers from Africa, South America or Dutch 

greenhouses? That’s not acceptable for anyone who 

thinks sustainability is important. Your own flower 

garden will delight you with its ecological blossoms 

outside and inside the house. Slow flower gardener 

Katharina Funk explains the basics of growing cut 

flowers, describes annual and biennial plants, roses, 

perennials, and bushes and, for a good start, provides 

examples of beds to replicate when planting. If 

you are a flower fan who loves to arrange bouquets 

and wreaths yourself, this book will also have beautiful 

ideas and detailed instructions for you.

▶ Ecological gardening with seeds 

you harvested yourself 

Promote biodiversity, preserve true-to-seed species, 

avoid genetic engineering, and save money: there 

are a lot of reasons for reproducing vegetables and 

herbs from your own seeding materials. Mechthild 

Hubl describes the steps from harvesting seeds to 

a new plant, like beans, salad or tomatoes, but also 

for cross-pollinating plants like cucumber, onions, 

or parsley. This descriptive, practical book explains 

in detail how to extract, store, and sow the seeds. 

Additionally, it offers a harvesting calendar which 

informs you about the time of flowering and the 

duration of seed formation for each species. 


▶ Fruit and vegetable snacks from 

your balcony – organic, sustainable, 

insect-friendly 

Growing vegetables and fruits without a garden – is 

that possible? Of course! Melanie Öhlenbach has 

been doing that for years, entirely ecologically and 

sustainably, on the 6 sqm of her city balcony. Mini 

cucumbers and lettuce, strawberries and raspberries, 

herbs and edible flowers, and many more healthy 

treats are suited as quick and easy plants for balcony 

and terrace. She shows what to keep in mind when 

gardening in pots, tubs, and boxes, and always pays 

attention to plastic-free options and to species diversity.

Harvesting your own vegetables, taking fruit snacks from the 

balcony or having a field for bees outside your doorstep – if you 

are dreaming of gardening, this book will provide you with an easy 

introduction. Bestselling author Carolin Engwert and illustrator 

Véro Mischitz unconventionally tackle the topic: with a sense 

of humour and an easy-going drawing pencil. Which gardening 

type am I? Which basic rules are there for successfully starting a 

garden? What are the typical mistakes and how can I avoid them? 

These and many other questions are amusingly, knowledgeably, 

and clearly answered – so that garden dreams quickly come true.

The Kosmos Forest Guide presents a uniquely extensive 

wealth of species with more than 200 plants, 300 

animals, and 50 mushrooms. The species in question

ecology, climate change as well as the use of forests and 

wood. The standard book – for families, pedagogues, 

and everyone who professionally works with forests. 


▶ Walk through a microcosmos 

full of wonders 

A wild meadow is nature in summer at its most beautiful. 

On the wild herbs, insects bustle around. Birds seek 

shelter in the gras, and even downstairs, where little 

mammals and earthworms live, everything is full of life. 

Daniela Strauß affectionately tells us about the visible 

and invisible life on the summer meadow. On captivating 

illustrations we can admire the animals, plants, and 

mushrooms in this microcosmos. An emotional nature 

book – pages full of happy anticipation of summer.

▶ Discover, identify, bring attention 

to 100 city plants 

There is a buzz about this trend of nature protection! 

Rebel botanists go through the cities and mark plants 

in gaps in the pavement and in wall cracks with chalk 

to create an awareness for these “wallflowers”. Anyone 

can join in, and this identification book is the perfect 

companion. The nature guide presents 100 city plants 

growing wild. For each plant, there are two images: a 

photo of its urban living environment and an illustration 

taken from “What’s Blooming There?” – so 

reality and ideal are shown right next to each other. 


▶ Wild treasures to enjoy: herbs, 

trees, mushrooms, and more! 

This nature guide presents the variety of edible plants 

in nature: wild herbs, trees, bushes, berries, and mushrooms. 

30 species are shown on photos and illustrations, 

their features described for reliable identification, 

lookalikes shown you might confuse them with, and recipes 

and tips are shared for processing and storing. On 

top of that, the book provides you with a deeper understanding 

of ecological connections, for example which 

berries, trees, and mushrooms share the same habitat. 

That makes picking and collecting easier and helps you 

realize that our forests are complex living environments.

▶ The best exercises for the first steps 

You adjusted the binoculars, set up the spotting 

scope, but there is no bird to be seen? Leander Khil 

knows the typical questions of beginning birdwatchers 

from many excursions. What do I have to watch 

out for at the bird feeder? How do I observe birds 

at the water or in the evening? The richly illustrated 

practical guide makes the first steps of birdwatching 

easy. All the facts and tips for recognizing and identifying 

are explained in detail and can be learned in 

outdoor exercises during which each bird species is 

introduced as well. That is how birdwatching beginners 

will get to see even the “trickiest” of species. 


▶ The perfect introduction to birdwatching: 

emotional, positive, and 

entertaining 

Antonia and Philipp want to get as many people as 

possible enthusiastic about what they love: birds. 

The two hobby ornithologists and podcasters present 

14 bird species and explain how to observe 

and protect them. Helpful information is interspersed 

with personal anecdotes and brief detours into 

music, art, and pop culture. A positive and entertaining 

book about the love for birds – which makes 

you want to go (urban) birdwatching right away.

▶ Successful searches with the 

multi-purpose dog 

Seeking sick deer is imperative for animal welfare, 

and tracking is one of the most demanding tasks for 

a hunting dog. With the appropriate training, the 

multi-purpose dog can be successful in many situations. 

For that, the young dog has to be systematically 

trained to follow exercise trails so it can reach the 

level of practice necessary for following the tracks of 

wounded game in nature in its future hunting routine. 

One of the most renowned trainers of multi-purpose 

dogs in Germany will show you how to successfully 

do that in this new edition of his standard work.

▶ The program against chronic 

fatigue: With exercises, recipes, 

and practical tips 

When the small powerhouses in the cells are impaired, 

it leads to chronic fatigue and even burn-out. 

However, recent studies show: we can train our 

energy centres ourselves! With this book, Martin 

Auerswald explains how to be successful in doing 

that. He shares specific instructions, exercises, recipes, 

and checklists with which all the steps are easily 

put into action in everyday life. That way, you can 

activate your mitochondrial power and feel new 

vital energy all the way down to the smallest cell. 


▶ The first book about the identical 

causes for Long Covid and Chronic 

Fatigue Syndrome 

Long Covid and the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) 

are two names for the same disease: the post-viral fatigue. 

Dr. Bernhard Dickreiter comprehensibly summarizes 

the most recent researches and explains how the 

syndrome probably develops from killed viruses which 

cause inflammation within the cells and thus impair 

the function of the mitochondria. He presents therapies 

which treat the causes, among them the cytological regulation 

therapy he developed. The included interviews 

with experts and reports from people affected show that 

this approach promises good chances of full recovery.

▶ The power combo – more effective 

than forest bathing 

During forest yoga, we become connected with both 

ourselves and with nature in a uniquely profound way. 

Places of power, trees, and animals of the forest can 

help alleviate a number of problems. The yoga instructor 

and nature therapist Verena Krutak describes how 

you can use that knowledge to put together your own 

forest yoga program consisting of mobilisation, Asanas, 

and breathing exercises. 10 holistic programs ranging 

from finding comfort to reducing stress reward us 

with a calm mind, a relaxed soul, and a healthy body.

▶ Strengthen inner power and 

stability with the help of nature 

rituals during the year 

Our quickly changing world throws many people out 

of balance. Susana Garcia Ferreira shows how to gain a 

new sense of stability and security from the rhythm of 

the seasons. We learn about the special powers of each 

month and how to use them with the help of easy rituals: 

for example, a cleansing burning of incense in the 

house in winter, refreshing forest bathing in summer, or 

the inclusion of nature rituals in important life events 

like birth or marriage. It is so easy to use the power of 

nature in everyday life and thus to connect more deeply.

▶ The 7x7 formula for wellness and 

well-being with healing stones 

Healing stones like amethyst, rose quartz, or rock crystal 

are pure natural power and promote the health of 

body, mind, and soul in an easy way. Katharina Bollack 

has put together a seven-minute program for each 

day of the week: the full power of healing stones for 

wellness and well-being. Simple exercises and tips like 

making gemstone cream or improving drinking water 

are complemented by short meditations, visualisations, 

rituals or massages. That way, you can easily let 

healing stones unfold their power in your everyday life. 

▶ Yoga exercises for feeling better 

Fascia tissue supports the body and envelope muscles, 

organs and bones. The muscular connective tissue plays 

an important role in our mobility and performance. 

The suppler the fascia, the better the body awareness 

and coordination. However, when there is pain, stress 

or loss of movement, they stick together and stress also 

increases the tension in the fascia. Bonded fascia are 

often the cause of back and hip pain as well as complaints 

in the shoulder and neck area. Yoga teacher 

Lucia Nirmala Schmidt presents a gentle but effective 

exercise program for stretching and stimulating the 

connective tissue – for an all-round good body feeling.
