The Human Heart
Structure and Functioning
Our life is determined by our heart.
In reality as well as symbolically. When we love someone, we lose our heart to that person. When we are courageous, we stand up for something with all our heart. But when we are frightened, our hearts may well be in our boots now and then.
The heart is of central importance just as it is in the centre of our body. It is a masterpiece of nature in design and function.
It reliably beats 60 to 70 times per minute while pumping about six litres of blood through our body. And the heart can quickly and effectively increase this performance to up to 30 litres per minute under conditions of physical effort.
And when the heart does not work properly, it can be life-threatening.

Product Piracy
Counterfeiting takes place in almost all economic sectors – textiles, watches, car parts, machine parts, tools, accessories, software and medicines. Some counterfeits are easy to recognise, others are so well-executed that even experts have difficulty distinguishing between original and imitation. This DVD covers the development of a product from idea to manufacture. Once a product has become a trademark, product pirates appear on the scene.
Air Traffic
Being able to fly has been a dream of humanity from time immemorial. But it does not even date back a century that people actually started being able to travel through the air. Since the 1960s, the number of flight passengers has been constantly increasing. Thus, the airspace is no longer dominated by birds but by man-made flying objects.
