"EIN WUNDERSCHÖNES BUCH ÜBER DIE GEBURT DER SCHRIFT" LA REPUBBLICA

Wenigstens viermal in der Weltgeschichte wurde die Schrift neu erfunden: in Ägypten, Mesopotamien, China und Mexiko (die Maya-Schrift). Silvia Ferrara verbindet Archäologie, Anthropologie und Neurowissenschaft, um die frühesten Phasen der Entstehung von Schriftkulturen zu vergegenwärtigen. Und sie schlüpft in die Rolle einer wissenschaftlichen Detektivin, um ihre große Passion mit uns zu teilen: die bis heute noch nicht entzifferten Schriften wie der Diskos von Phaistos (Kreta) oder die Rongorongo-Schrift von der Osterinsel.

Dieses Buch erzählt von der vielleicht größten Erfindung der Welt. Ohne sie wären wir nur Stimme, schwebten wir in ständiger Gegenwart. Silvia Ferrara verbindet Archäologie, Anthropologie und Neurowissenschaft, um die frühesten Phasen der Entstehung von Schriftkulturen zu vergegenwärtigen. Und sie schlüpft in die Rolle einer wissenschaftlichen Detektivin, um ihre große Passion mit uns zu teilen: die bis heute noch nicht entzifferten Schriften wie die kretische Hieroglyphe, die Linearschrift A, der Diskos von Phaistos (Kreta) oder die Rongorongo-Schrift von der Osterinsel.
«Die große Erfindung» ist ein populärwissenschaftlicher Pageturner, geschrieben im Stil einer mündlichen Erzählung; die Darstellung wirkt wie ein mitreißender Gedankenstrom. Der gewählten Form entspricht aber auch Ferraras These, trotz ihrer Bedeutung stelle die Schrift keine biologische oder historische Notwendigkeit dar. Viele komplexe Gesellschaften besaßen keine Schrift, trotzdem wuchsen und blühten sie. Neue Technologien könnten in Zukunft sogar zum Verschwinden der Schrift führen. Schon jetzt findet die Kommunikation andere Wege, etwa die Emojis. In der Geschichte der Menschheit gleicht die Schrift womöglich nur einer Sternschnuppe.

* Neue Erkenntnisse über die größte Erfindung der Menschheit
* Silvia Ferrara und ihr Team entschlüsseln bislang rätselhafte Schriften wie die kretischen Hieroglyphen oder die Zeichen auf dem Diskos von Phaistos

* Ein populärwissenschaftlicher Pageturner über die Geschichte und Zukunft der Schrift

1st one lasted over 3yrs, 2nd started falling apart in less than a week....
Color: Orange & Blue Roller, Size: 7.5 inches (1 Pack), Color: Orange & Blue Roller, Size: 7.5 inches (1 Pack)
My dog really loves this toy. He’s a 5yr old border collie. He doesn’t work at tearing up his toys but he does shake his toys. I bought his 1st Chuckit it indoor football over 3yrs ago. It held up very well and had normal wear and tear I’d expect from a chuckit toy to have. It developed a small tear in fabric about 6months ago. As it was still mainly intact, I let him continue to play with it. Then the tear widened and I felt good time to replace, so I ordered one from Amazon. He was ecstatic to have a new one. I was quite disappointed though as in under a week from giving it to him(he’s always supervised during play so I do know what he does with his toys and he doesn’t work at them to tear them up) I noticed a tear down the seam that was bigger than the other one had for 6months. Over the next few days, tear widened. Now cover is completely off of inside. I’m really disappointed in the quality. I’m not sure if the quality of the toy is less than when I got his first one(which I bought in a pet store such as petsmart) or if for some reason because I purchased on amazon, they are of lesser quality. I do know for a fact as I supervise his play and with his favorite toys(and usually his spendier toys) they get put up when it’s not play time. He has his other toys that he can play with anytime. I have ran also into Kong toys (Wubba) that has come apart quickly in under a month,but those were both bought on amazon and at a retail store, so I don’t know if amazon is distributing toys of lesssr quality or if toy brands that have held up in past (Kong Wubba & this Chuckit football) are just being made of lesser quality. My dog’s style of play hasn’t changed nor has his supervision. That being said, my dog absolutely LOVES this toy. I want other users to be forewarned that I’ve had 2 of this product for my dog, they both developed a tear down seam, that eventually led to outer fabric shell coming off of the inner part of the toy. Yes my dog does shake his toys but 1st lasted over 3yrs, 2nd lasted less than a month and is in worse condition than the first. I may purchase this toy again as it’s one of his favorites just to see if the 2nd one was a fluke. Had I paid more than $6.19(I’m a prime member and it was an add on product) I most likely wouldn’t purchase a third one. I’m willing to see if the third one will last at least a yr. if it starts coming apart in less than a week again, I’ll have my answer which would be that chuckit has resorted to making their toys of lessor quality. I hope that’s not the case because they are one of only a couple of brands I hold in high regard for their good quality and durable dog toys. Please see picture. It’s his toy in less than a month. The outer material came off during play last night. It lasted less than a month from time I gave it to him to play with. 5/22/18 update. I bought him a 3rd indoor fumblr, it last almost 3 months...I ordered him a 4th one. I gave it to him Friday, today is Tuesday, his 4th one is already coming apart at the seams. When I ordered 4th fumblr, I bought 2 at the same time, they were $5.19 each(prime member add on price). I’m glad I did because now they are twice the price at now over $10. I very highly doubt I will buy another indoor fumblr unless price drops in half again. This last one that I gave him 4-5days ago, it hasn’t been his daily favorite toy. He’s maybe played with it a couple hrs each day. My dog really LOVES this toy. I’m moving my rating down to a 1 Star from 2 as this toy has consistently come apart rather quickly. I’m very disappointed in the quality of this toy. He’s 5 1/2yrs Old now. 1st fumblr last over 3yrs, he’s gone through the other 3 in under 6months...had I paid over $10 each time, I probably would’ve stopped after the 3rd fumblr came apart. as it is now, I won’t but any more fumblrs by chuckit at this price....if price drops, after he’s gone through the 5th one I have put up...I may consider it...but not at over $10 for a toy that comes apart through normal play in under 5 days...

Convenient.
Size: 1 X Pack of 180
Bought this product so many times over. Keep them stocked for special occasions as well as casual BBQ with friends. I use them to take as a hostess gift at other BBQ's, because everyone can use them. They do not bend like the other brands. The tray with the snap-on lid makes it easy use then store away.
