Hippocrates works (with search)
Category: Reference
Released: Oct 24, 2009
Price: $4.99
Description:
The Hippocratic Corpus is a collection of medical works from ancient Greece, written in Ionic Greek. The question of whether Hippocrates himself was the author of the corpus has not been conclusively answered. The Hippocratic Corpus contains textbooks, lectures, research, notes and philosophical essays on various subjects in medicine, in no particular order.
The Hippocratic Oath is probably the most famous document of the Hippocratic Corpus. Recently the authenticity of the document has come under scrutiny. While the Oath is rarely used in its original form today, it serves as a foundation for other, similar oaths and laws that define good medical practice and morals. Such derivatives are regularly taken today by medical graduates about to enter medical practice.

Food Guide
Category: Lifestyle
Released: Oct 14, 2009
Price: $4.99
Description:
No longer clueless or speechless when shopping on vacation or at home! With the Food Guide, you now have the most important information of about 1,400 foods and ingredients always at hand – and all shown in pictures and text for multiple languages. Thus, the Food Guide is your culinary companion, consumer report and dictionary in one. It is clear, simple and easy to use and contains almost all major foods in Europe.
You find yourself at a Spanish market, looking for chili peppers and you don’t speak Spanish? Simply type in the English term in the search engine: the Food Guide will show you the appropriate term in five languages, including Spanish, immediately. Along with this, there is a photo (which you can show to the salesperson) and the most important information about the product.
Alternatively, you might find “Branzino� on the menu of an Italian restaurant – a fish which you do not know yet. Simply enter the name in the foreign language. You will get to the respective entry for „sea bass“, and you can briefly and precisely read the most important information on this fish.
The editor Michael Ditter and the renowned food journalist Ingeborg Pils, who have been producing culinary books and reference works together for international publishers for years, offer a new form of food science, including translation help. The texts were researched carefully and are comprehensibly worded.
The idea was technically and competently realized by Alexander Blach, who has already successfully created the extensive German recipe collection in the „Recipe-Wiki“ as an application.
The program operates offline, which means there will be no expensive roaming charges when you use the Food Guide abroad.
This is an advertising price – only good for a short time!
Dictionary
The Food Guide contains approximately 1,400 foods and ingredients (with a focus on Europe) in five languages: English, German, French, Spanish and Italian, as well as the scientific name. This makes it an ideal active-passive translation and identification help when shopping for groceries or visiting a restaurant in any country where one of the afore-mentioned languages is spoken.
Merchandise knowledge
You want to know what a “Tiroler Graukäse� is? No problem, you will find the most important facts about the production method, the type of milk, the fat content, maturing time and flavor of this type of cheese as well as a link to the entry “curdled cheese� in the respective entry in the Food Guide.
Culinary guide
The mobile culinary guide additionally shows at-a-glance with a rating system of 1 to 5 stars, which consumption-significance a food has in Europe.
Languages
The text entries are currently set up in three languages: English, German and Spanish. The program contains all three languages. You can recall them at any time and change from one to another at the touch of a button – without additional charges. This way, learning or enhancing culinary vocabulary in German, English and Spanish is easier than ever.
