- J.C. Jacobsens villa på Carlsberg
289,95 kr. I år afsluttes Carlsbergfondets hidtil mest gennemgribende restaurering af J.C. Jacobsens private villa, væksthuse og have. Det fejres med en rigt illustreret publikation, hvor villaen, dens omgivelser og dens rige historie præsenteres af en række eksperter: husets arkitektur og haveanlæg, restaurering og videnskabshistorie.Hovedkapitlet af Birgitte Possing er en ny fortælling om J.C. og Laura Jacobsen og de værdier, de sammen byggede Carlsberg på. Helt ny læsning af eksisterende litteratur og kilder viser, at Carlsberg ikke blev bygget af én mand, men af det tæt samarbejdende ægtepar J.C. og Laura Jacobsen. Carlsbergs succes som et forbillede i erhverv, videnskab, arkitektur, kunst, kultur og mæcenvirksomhed skyldes dette indbyrdes samarbejde. Possing stiller derfor spørgsmålet, som alle viser sig at have overset: Hvorfor slettede J.C. Jacobsen alle spor efter hustruen Laura? Og hvorfor lod generationer af historikere Laura Jacobsen forsvinde i historiens tåger?

278,95 kr. In the vast realm of healthcare, medicinal plants play a crucial role in providing natural remedies for various ailments. These plants, often found in our own backyards or in remote parts of the world, have been used for centuries by different cultures to treat and prevent diseases. As students of botany, it is essential to understand the importance of medicinal plants and their contribution to modern healthcare.Medicinal plants are a treasure trove of bioactive compounds, which have the potential to serve as the foundation for developing new drugs. Many of the drugs we use today, such as aspirin and morphine, have their origins in medicinal plants. For instance, aspirin was derived from the bark of the willow tree, while morphine originated from the opium poppy. By studying these plants and their chemical constituents, scientists can unlock their therapeutic properties and create effective treatments for various ailments.Furthermore, medicinal plants offer a more sustainable and accessible form of healthcare. In many parts of the world, particularly in developing countries, people rely heavily on traditional medicine derived from plants due to limited access to modern healthcare facilities. Medicinal plants provide a cost-effective alternative to expensive pharmaceutical drugs, making healthcare more accessible to those in need. By promoting the use of medicinal plants, we can bridge the gap between traditional and modern medicine, ensuring that everyone has access to safe and effective treatments.Additionally, studying medicinal plants allows us to tap into the vast biodiversity of our planet. With approximately 400,000 plant species on Earth, only a fraction has been thoroughly investigated for their medicinal properties. By delving deeper into the world of botany, we can uncover hidden treasures and discover new plant-based remedies. This exploration not only expands our knowledge but also opens doors to novel treatments that can address emerging diseases and antibiotic resistance.As students of botany, we have the opportunity to contribute to the field of plant pharmacology and shape the future of healthcare. By conducting research, documenting traditional knowledge, and advocating for the preservation of medicinal plants and their habitats, we can ensure the sustainable use of these invaluable resources. Our understanding of botany and medicinal plants can pave the way for groundbreaking discoveries and advancements in healthcare, benefiting millions of people worldwide.
