Sheltering Love
Graeme’s discoveries might be his downfall. Graeme has existed in a state of dread for far too long. Conducting research high in the crowns of ancient redwoods, he’s almost convinced that he’s not hiding like a coward from the demons of his past. That is, until stunning Alexa discovers him and tips over his world in the treetops. Then he’s torn between revealing what he’s found. . . and disappearing altogether. This is Alexa’s last chance to prove she’s capable of producing an award-winning documentary. But she never expected she’d have to return to the place she fled years ago. A place that still holds nightmares for her. When Graeme stands in the way of completing her work, Alexa wants to know why. As their greatest fears collide in the heart of the wilderness, Alexa and Graeme must learn to trust in God’s plan, not only for the moment, but for the rest of their lives. Can they each bury the past long enough to nurture love?

Quality of Life Impairment in Schizophrenia, Mood and Anxiety Disorders
A fascinating and worthy text that presents new insights into a hugely important area of mental health. Health-related quality of life (HRQL) impairment is a core domain of prevalent mental disorders such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective, mood and anxiety disorders.

Rating Scales in Parkinson's Disease
For many years, the need to develop valid tools to evaluate signs and symptoms of Parkinson Disease (PD) has been present. However the understanding of all intricacies of rating scales development was not widely available and the first attempts were relatively crude. In 2002, the Movement Disorders Society created a task force to systemize the measurement of Parkinson's Disease. Since then, the Task Force has produced and published several critiques to the available rating scales addressing both motor and non-motor domains of Parkinson Disease. Additionally the task force initiated a project to develop a new version of the UPDRS, the MDS-UPDRS. But none of this was made available in one conv...

Ghost Platoon
'thoroughly researched and compelling . . . a chilling account' - The Sun Herald An eye-opening account of Australian combat history, untold . . . until now. In 1969 a ragtag unit of 39 men were thrown together at Nui Dat, Vietnam. It was so slapdash a group it didn't even have an officer or sergeant in charge. A rugged ex-Royal Marine stepped forward to take the lead. Jim Riddle was only an acting corporal but he knew enough of war to keep these young diggers alive. When the platoon was involved in a high-risk ambush Riddle proved his leadership skills, bringing his men through unscathed and leaving the battlefield littered with enemy bodies. Despite their success, immediately afterwards th...
