This book provides answers on how allies have to prepare for the strategic challenges in the maritime domain of the 21st century. 24 noted international authors, scholars and practitioners alike, refer to areas of operation and relevant trends and developments. They include the strategic consideration of NATO’s “Northern Flank” as well as an outlook on “Naval Warfare 4.0”. The concise chapters are characterized by their scientific fundament, on which basis recommended actions are drawn. With its substantial practical relevance, this volume is of much value for academics and practitioners in the fields of international relations, security policy, and strategic studies in Germany, Europe, and NATO. With contributions by James H. Bergeron, Keith E. Blount, Sebastian Bruns, Jim Fanell, James Goldrick, Niklas Granholm, Tom Guy, Frank Hoffmann, Sidharth Kaushal, Frédéric Lasserre, Kaspar Pajos, Sarandis Papadopoulos, Chris Parry, Julian Pawlak, Johannes Peters, Pauline Pic, Deborah Sanders, John Sherwood, Dirk Siebels, Jeremy Stöhs, Bruce Stubbs, Sarah Tarry and Alix Valenti.

Anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are dramatically influencing the environment, and research is strongly committed to proposing alternatives, mainly based on renewable energy sources. Low GHG electricity production from renewables is well established but issues of grid balancing are limiting their application. Energy storage is a key topic for the further deployment of renewable energy production. Besides batteries and other types of electrical storage, electrofuels and bioderived fuels may offer suitable alternatives in some specific scenarios. This Special Issue includes contributions on the energy conversion technologies and use, energy storage, technologies integration, e-fuels, and pilot and large-scale applications.

Between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries, Rouen was one of the greatest cities in western Europe. The effective capital of the 'Angevin Empire' between 1154 and 1204 and thereafter a leading cityin the realm of the Capetian and Valois kings of France, it experienced substantial growth, the emergence of communal government and the ravages of plague and the Hundred Years' War. This book examines the impact of leprosy upon Rouen during this period, and the key role played by charity in the society and religious culture of the city and its hinterland. Based upon extensive archival research, and focusing in particular on Rouen's leper houses, it offers a new understanding of responses to disease and disability in medieval Europe. It charts how attitudes towards lepers, and perceptions of their disease, changed over time, explores the relationship between leprosy, charity and practices of piety, and considers how leprosy featured in growing concerns about public health. It also sheds important new light on the roles and experiences of women, as both charitable patrons and leprosy sufferers, and on medical practice and practitioners in medieval France. Elma Brenner is Specialist in Medieval and Early Modern Medicine at the Wellcome Library, London.
