Quercus Publishing Not That Kind of Love: the heart-breaking story of love and loss by Greg Wise
'A remarkable account of illness, loss and the power of sibling love' The Times'Wise's reflections on compassion fatigue are worth the price of this book alone, but what you take away is something splendid and unwearying: a sibling's devotion that feels remarkably like what we mean when we talk of a stage of grace.' Telegraph'Inspirational... profoundly uplifting' Daily Mail'Heartbreaking and inspiring in equal measure' Express'This is a fantastic book ... Remarkable' Lorraine Kelly_______A moving, thought-provoking and surprisingly humorous book which is both a description of a journey to death and a celebration of the act of living.Based on Clare Wise's blog, which she started when she was first diagnosed with cancer in 2013, Not That Kind of Love charts the highs and lows of the last three years of Clare's life. The end result is not a book that fills you with despair and anguish. On the contrary, Not That Kind of Love should be read by everybody for its candour, and for its warmth and spirit. Clare is an astonishingly dynamic, witty and fun personality, and her positivity and energy exude from every page.As she becomes too weak to type, her brother - the actor Greg Wise - takes over, and the book morphs into a beautiful meditation on life, and the necessity of talking about death.As Greg Wise writes in the book: 'Celebrate the small things, the small moments. If you find yourself with matching socks as you leave the house in the morning, that is a cause for celebration. If the rest of the day is spent finding the cure for cancer, or brokering world peace, then that's a bonus.'

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Vater, Vater, Mutter, Kind - Ein Plädoyer für die rechtliche Mehrvaterschaft
Kinder haben nicht selten zwei Vaterfiguren: Einen rechtlichen und sozialen Vater einerseits und einen leiblichen, aber nicht rechtlichen Vater andererseits. Der Gesetzgeber hat im Anschluss an zwei Entscheidungen des EGMR dem leiblichen, nicht rechtlichen Vater ein Umgangs- und Auskunftsrecht eingeräumt (§ 1686a BGB). Diese Regelung ist jedoch inhaltlich unausgewogen und verfassungsrechtlich zumindest bedenklich, denn sie macht den leiblichen Vater gleichsam zu einem halben rechtlichen Vater, der nur Rechte, aber keine Pflichten hat. Ina Plettenberg plädiert deshalb für die Etablierung einer zweiten rechtlich vollwertigen Vaterschaft des leiblichen Vaters neben dem rechtlichen und sozialen Vater des Kindes. Erforderlich ist dabei stets, dass dies im Einzelfall mit dem Kindeswohl vereinbar ist. Eine solche doppelte rechtliche Vaterschaft ist von den verfassungsrechtlichen Vorgaben gedeckt und fügt sich einfachrechtlich komplikationslos in das geltende Familien- und Erbrecht ein, wie ein detaillierter Gesetzgebungsvorschlag der Verfasserin zeigt.
