The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook
Trigger point therapy is one of the fastest-growing and most effective pain therapies in the world. Medical doctors, chiropractors, physical therapists, and massage therapists are all beginning to use this technique to relieve patients’ formerly undiagnosable muscle and joint pain, both conditions that studies have shown to be the cause of nearly 25 percent of all doctor visits. This book addresses the problem of myofascial trigger points—tiny contraction knots that develop in a muscle when it is injured or overworked. Restricted circulation and lack of oxygen in these points cause referred pain. Massage of the trigger is the safest, most natural, and most effective form of pain therapy....

The Devil I Know
** SOLDIER SAILOR - THE NEW NOVEL BY CLAIRE KILROY - IS AVAILABLE NOW** There was a crooked man and he walked a crooked mile He made a crooked deal and he blew a crooked pile He dug a crooked hole And he sank the crooked isle And they all went to hell in a stew of crooked bile. The Devil I Know is a thrilling novel of greed and hubris, set against the backdrop of a brewing international debt crisis. Told by Tristram, in the form of a mysterious testimony, it recounts his return home after a self-imposed exile only to find himself trapped as a middle man played on both sides - by a grotesque builder he's known since childhood on the one hand, and a shadowy businessman he's never met on the other. Caught between them, as an overblown property development begins in his home town of Howth, it follows Tristram's dawning realisation that all is not well. From a writer unafraid to take risks, The Devil I Know is a bold, brilliant and disturbing piece of storytelling.

An Introduction to the Study of Terra Sigillata
Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Terra Sigillata: Treated From a Chronological Standpoint Next to datable inscriptions, there is, perhaps, no relic of Roman occupa tion which yields such valuable chronological evidence as Term Sigillata the red-glazed fabric of Gaul and other provinces - commonly known as Samian ware. The variations and transmutations of its forms, the changing character of its decorative designs in successive periods, and the marks of its potters, tell a chronological tale almost, if not quite, as convincing as the transitions of the column and arch in architecture.
