Welcome 

Dear Partners around the Globe, 

Another fall has come and with it our beautiful fall book program. 

From a stunning title on the beauty of the universe (Die Pracht des Universums, page 5) to our 

large atlases (Neuer Atlas der Erde, page 8) we cover the entire world. We offer both co-editions 

as well as license deals, please inquire. 

In the area of scavenging the bounty of nature we focus on trees in this catalogue: Tasty Trees 

(page 16). On the side of creativity and nature: we follow the trend of Nature Journaling (page 20). 

For laughs: Our star dog expert Martin Rütter has now his own comic with Dog Days (page 26) – 

reliving the most typical situations of dog training in hilarious situations. 

Our horse whisperer Catherine Seib parts with the secrets of horse communication in her title 

Conversations with Your Horse (page 33). 

Mental and physical health are the topics of our bestselling author Dr. Pies on urology (page 37) 

and the art of healing with signs by Bassol (page 39). 

We hope you will find – as always – many titles to your liking. 

At the Frankfurt bookfair you are invited to visit our stand in Hall 3.0, D 36, please ask for 

an appointment or a digital meeting. 

Let us know if you want to receive books, pdfs or have any other questions for us. 

Best wishes from the Kosmos licensing team 

Julia, Kirstin & Franzi

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many previously unpublished insights, and lets the beholder 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!

Pure Coincidence

Why do we exist? The adventure of life is already full of 

magical wonders and a brief look at astronomy makes the 

emergence of humans seem entirely improbable. Why does 

the universe exist? What ingredients are necessary for the long 

recipe of baking humans and who is possibly the baker? The 

current research has a lot of exciting answers to those questions 

ready. The astrophysicists Erik Bertram and Dominika 

Wylezalek approach these questions from a very personal perspective. 

They speak with renowned researchers and provide 

insights into the everyday work of the astronomers.

Observing 

— Birds 

NATURE 

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.

▶ A book by all female birdwatchers 

and scientists 

▶ Discover the secret powers of birds, 

learn to understand them 

Birds are truely miraculous creatures whose superpowers 

have been overlooked far too often. Reason enough, then, 

to take a closer look at the abilities of these aerial acrobats 

and song artists. Silke Hartmann does just that in this book 

and has talked to Germany's leading bird researchers about 

the amazing abilities of birds. At the same time, she dispels 

the cliché of the old, bearded ornithologist and shows that 

ornithology can also be young, modern and female! 

Silke Hartmann is known on social media 

channels as „The Birdwatcher“: birds have made 

her world bigger, more colourful and more 

worth living in. The self-taught birdwatcher 

wants to share this enthusiasm with others. Her 

mission is to get people excited about birds and 

open the door to this wonderful world. 

Veronika "Véro" Mischitz is a graduate biologist, 

freelance illustrator and comic artist. She 

discovered her heart for birds during her studies, 

when she spent a lot of time with bird-loving 

friends and colleagues at a field station in 

Norway. She discovered her fascination for 

insects in her childhood.

▶ The most frequently asked questions 

about Cataract are answered 

▶ New title in successful series 

Cataract - the clouding of the lens in the eye - mainly 

affects people over the age of 60, but can also be the 

result of metabolic diseases or eye malformations. The 

disease often begins unnoticed and progresses gradually 

until those affected complain of increased sensitivity to 

glare, faded colours and contrasts and a deterioration in 

light-dark adaptation. Then surgical replacement of the 

lens is the only way to restore vision. In this book, those 

affected and their relatives learn everything they need to 

know about the cause, diagnosis and course of cataracts. 


▶ Experience and expertise on a topical 

issue: around 3.8 million people 

affected in Germany 

▶ Positive mindset despite lipedema 

After being diagnosed with lipedema, many patients find 

themselves alone with countless questions and worries. 

What does this diagnosis mean for their health? How do 

you cope with everyday life with the painful fat deposits 

in the subcutaneous tissue? And how do you manage 

to keep a positive mindset despite this disease? Author 

and blogger Caroline Sprott is a lipedema patient herself. 

Her experiences and tips are complemented by medical 

expertise from specialist Dr Anna-Theresa Lipp.

▶ Focus on cancer prevention 

▶ Getting away from the taboo topic 

of "down below" 

Awkward silence and rather quickly away from the 

topic... People don't like to talk about "down below". 

Dr Christoph Pies has experienced this all too often 

in his practice. He knows: that has to change! With 

this book he declares war on silence. In a humorous 

and sympathetic way, easy to understand and with 

the greatest competence, he not only reports on his 

daily practice, but also explains to the reader how 

medical treatments are carried out by a urologist. 

Because: No one has to be afraid of the urologist. 


▶ Effectively alleviating menopausal 

symptoms 

▶ Standard therapies of medicine 

and natural medicine 

The well-known doctor Heide Fischer shows how to 

activate your body’s potential for self-healing during 

menopause with a combination of treatments from 

conventional and natural medicine. She explains the 

reasons for hot flashes and for problems with mucous 

membranes, discusses loss of libido and contraception, 

describes the conventional hormone replacement therapy 

as well as alternatives, and gives tips for self-care.

▶ Often undetected: Silent reflux 

as a trigger of complaints 

▶ Strategies for lasting freedom 

from complaints 

This guide is a real eye-opener! Because behind complaints 

such as the need to clear the throat, coughing, hoarseness, 

but also laryngitis and even ear problems, there is often 

an unexpected cause: silent reflux. Colloquially known as 

heartburn, the reflux of gastric juice is not only unpleasant, 

but can lead to serious problems in the long term. 

This book is the first to focus on silent reflux, describes 

causes, symptoms and treatment options and helps 

those affected to get a grip on the unpleasant belching. 


▶ Trend topic self-optimisation: 

really useful or hands off? 

▶ Practical knowledge with tips, 

checklists and questionnaires 

Biochemist Martin Auerswald knows: It is easy to reach for 

the supposed miracle capsules and, according to the motto 

"If it doesn't help, it won't hurt", many people hope to do something 

good for themselves with food supplements. But is 

it really that simple? Or are the often expensive preparations 

just misleading promises? This book takes a competent, critical 

and practical look at how we deal with food supplements, 

shows where they can be helpful and gives many exciting 

suggestions on how we can prevent deficiency symptoms.

▶ With fasting plan, test for 

Ayurvedic typing and nutrition tips 

In this tried and tested guide, experts Ellen and Traudel 

Ertner pass on their in-depth knowledge of Ayurvedic 

therapeutic fasting. With fascinating information on 

Ayurvedic teachings, recipes as well as physical exercises 

and a fasting plan, they provide a holistic insight into 

Indian healing teachings and show how the "knowledge 

of life" can be easily integrated into modern everyday life. 

▶ Professional success through mindfulness 

coaching and leadership 

training 

▶ Practical exercises for inner and 

outer development 

Professional life often is characterised by negativity and 

our wishes for professional upswing and more success 

remain unfulfilled. With more mindfulness, taking 

our inner values into account and with confidence in 

our own abilities, anyone can succeed in making their 

profession their vocation and freeing themselves from 

stress and anxiety patterns. So nothing stands in the 

way of personal development in professional life.

Highlights 


If you consider self-love a goal that you can train for with 

mantras and exercises, you are on the wrong track. Focusing on 

performance and achievement does not lead to self-acceptance 

but into the craze of self-optimisation. Rüdiger Schache explains 

why self-love cannot be achieved by efforts but only through the 

magic of letting go. Instead of doing more, you should do less to 

become happy: end the things that put you under pressure and 

that keep you from experiencing true self-love.
