Psalm 19:14 "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeemer." I cannot heal anyone, none of us can. I am His obedient instrument, His servant, His hands & feet ... Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit in me is the Healer, the Great Physician. I am not a theologian, but I am a willing student of the Book. There is little I can offer; no words or wisdom or experience, technique or method, none of my own very limited knowledge, no natural gifts ... beyond my humble heart to try to love His children as He does; to see, feel and hear their pain enough to intercede on their behalf (See Matthew 5 - the Beatitude...

This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. It starts with the origin of life and ends with the mechanisms that make muscles adapt to different forms of training. In between, it considers how evidence has been obtained about the extent of genetic influence on human capacities, how muscles and their fibres are studied for general properties and individual differences, and how molecular biological techniques have been combined with physiological ones to produce the new discipline of molecular exercise physiology. This is the first book on such topics written specifically for modules in exercise and sport science at final year Hons BSc and taught MSc levels.
"The Pursuit of the Heiress" is a new, greatly enlarged and more widely focused version of what the late Lawrence Stone described as "a brilliant long essay or short book on the subject of the role of heiresses among the Irish aristocracy," which was published by the Ulster Historical Foundation under the same title in 1982 and has long been out of print. The new book comes to the same broad conclusions about heiresses--namely that their importance as a means of enlarging the estates or retrieving the fortunes of their husbands has been much exaggerated. This was because known heiresses were well protected by a variety of legal devices and, in common with many aristocratic women of the day, ...
A remote, government-run facility in Saskatchewan called The Farm, offers terminally ill patients an opportunity to die on their own terms, and the sky is the limit. Some choose a quiet, peaceful passing, while others choose more elaborate, thriller-movie endings carried out by hired professionals. Operations are running smoothly for the facility’s manager, Captain Travis Hawkins, until two mysterious new clients arrive on the scene. Soon, terrorist threats by religious zealots are uncovered, dark secrets are revealed, a twisted contract killer sets his sights on his beautiful target, and the moral lines at The Farm become even blurrier than they already were.

Scotland and Southern Appalachia have always shared a strong connection. Many of the first people to permanently settle in the Appalachian mountains came from the Scottish highlands seeking religious and other freedoms. Many descendants of those first settlers from Scotland still make their homes in Southern Appalachia and attribute many aspects of their culture to their Scottish heritage. This book explores the parallels and connections between Scotland and Southern Appalachia, with special attention to the interplay between revivals of folk culture, native languages, and dialects in Scotland and Appalachia since the 1970s. It covers contemporary Scottish and Appalachian cultural movements, particularly the links between cultural revivals and identity politics, and contains substantial references that increase its value as an authoritative scholarly work on the convergence of the cultures.

New product design and development is often the result of personal vision. Harnessing this often requires a special receptiveness and enthusiasm at all levels of an organization, which serves to unlock potential and can turn the entire organizational pyramid upside-down. It is particularly important to understand and develop those aspects of design which can be constructively employed by designers in a strategic alliance with management and research.; The papers in this volume result from the conference of the Design Society held at the University of Central England in September 1998. They show how design-led product development has worked in a range of industries, from engineering through to design and management consultancy. Not only practitioners but also students of industrial design and management should find this a valuable contribution to the subject.
