With countless marriages and long-term relationships failing every day, former divorce lawyers authors Janet Clegg and Hilary Browne-Wilkinson offer sound and practical advice on what it takes to make a relationship loving, secure and successful.
Alone Again
The death of a life partner is not only heartbreaking but can mean the loved one left behind has to forge a whole new future - often alone. In Alone Again, author Dawn Cawley reveals the grief and trauma she experienced when she lost her beloved husband Alan to cancer and became a reluctant member of a singles club she did not wish to join. With her dreams for the future shattered, Dawn realised she could hide away forever - an attractive prospect at the time - or learn to cope with her new normal and hopefully find happiness one day. This little book is a practical, simple and helpful tome for anyone who has lost their 'other half' and shows it is possible to move forward in time, after great loss.
Dangerous Liaisons?
With the advent of genetic engineering, "designer" crops might interbreed with natural populations. Could such romances lead to the evolution of "superweeds", as some have suggested? But haven't crops had sex with wild plants in the past? Has such gene swapping occurred without consequences? And if consequences have indeed occurred, what lessons can be gleaned for engineered crops? In Dangerous Liaisons? Norman Ellstrand examines these and other questions. He begins with basic information about the natural hybridization process. He then describes what we now know about hybridization between the world's most important crops—such as wheat, rice, maize, and soybeans—and their wild relatives...
Forty-Five Years of Research at the NBRL, Boston, Massachusetts
In 1789, Horace Walpole defined serendipity as "making discoveries by accident"; it was through acceptance of this inherent chaos that some of history's most influential advances were made, such as Alfred Nobel and dynamite, Marie Curie and radium, and Alexander Fleming and penicillin. Usually chaotic-serendipitous observations are either not recognized by hypothesis-driven researchers or, if observed, rejected by them. Fortunately, the Naval Blood Research Laboratory (NBRL) has been able to embrace important chaotic and serendipitous observations that were critical to the productivity of the laboratory. As former director of the NBRL, C. Robert Valeri, MD, spent forty-five years exploring hematocrit, bleeding time, and nonsurgical blood loss, as well as other blood-related advances used to treat military and civilian personnel. In this volume, he reviews those advances and recalls his time at the NBRL.
