The Road Taken
'Dawn, and as the sun breaks through the piercing chill of night on the plain outside Korem it lights up a biblical famine, now, in the Twentieth Century.' Those words opened Michael Buerk's first report on the Ethiopian famine for the 6 o'clock news on October 24th 1984. His reports sent shock waves round the world. The Live Aid concert, a direct consequence of Bob Geldof watching that broadcast, was watched by half the planet. Michael Buerk has reported on some of the biggest stories in our lifetime: the Flixborough chemical plant fire, the Birmingham pub bombing, Lockerbie. He was in Buenos Aires at the start of the Falklands War; he reported the death throes of apartheid in South Africa. He was the face of the BBC flagship evening news for many years and has fronted everything from the popular BBC1 series 999 to the erudite Radio 4 programme The Moral Maze. He has won every major award and is universally admired and respected for his intelligent and honest journalism. Here, he also reveals the private Michael Buerk, his bigamist father, his long and happy marriage to Christine and his delight at fatherhood.

Local Drug Delivery for Coronary Artery Disease
Restenosis remains the Achilles heel of Percutaneous Coronary Interventions. Numerous pharmacological agents have been tested in order to reduce acute thrombosis and the hyperproliferative cellular response, and drug eluting stents-using the stent as a platform for local drug delivery-are now considered a significant breakthrough in interventional cardiology. Pioneers in the field, the editors of Local Drug Delivery for Coronary Artery Disease have assembled an excellent team of contributors who offer their experience with threatened vessel closure and restenosis, acute thrombosis, hyperproliferative cellular response, stents and local drug delivery. They share their expertise on all aspects of the field, including a discussion of results from preclinical and clinical studies, and they examine alternative methods of molecular delivery to the vessel wall. With coverage of the most current methods and applications, as well as a host of photographs illustrating their implementation, this book will serve as an excellent reference for cardiologists, pharmacologists, cardiac surgeons, and trainees.
The Killers
The Killers are a very British band. Their rise to fame has been meteoric, inspired, and eventful. Their album, "Hot Fuss" has made it into the Top 5 Selling Albums of 2004. This book charts that rise to fame, interviewing key players along the way, as well as placing the band in the context of the predominantly British legacy.
More Bad News (Routledge Revivals)
First published in 1980, More Bad News is the Second Volume in the research findings of the Glasgow University Media Group. It develops the analytic findings and methods of the first volume Bad News through a series of Case Studies of Television News Coverage, and argues that much of what passes as balanced and factual news reporting is produced from a highly partial viewpoint. Focusing on the British economy in crisis, and its thematic linkage with the Social Contract during the first four months of 1975, the book deals with three main levels of activity: the story, the language and the visuals. As the book unpacks each level of routine news coverage a picture emerges which has the surface appearance of neutrality and balance but is in fact highly partial and restricted
Big Noise from a Wee Country
People get bored by history books full of kings and battles. And it's the same for rock'n'roll history books full of nothing more than stars and hits. Yes, you'll find plenty of names you know in this lightning-fast rollercoaster ride down Memory Lane. Members of Del Amitri, Nazareth, the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, the Bay City Rollers, Primal Scream, the Beatstalkers, the Soup Dragons, the Vaselines, the Clyde Valley Stompers and Gene Vincent's band are amongst the speakers. But you'll also meet people - REAL people - who made less well-known but still important contributions to the Scottish rock and pop scene over its first 50 years. Big Noise From a Wee Country is packed with dozens of first-hand accounts of just some of the moments which shaped our nation's recent musical history. From dreams to disasters it's a quick-start guide to who did what and when. Martin Kielty is a Glasgow-based writer, journalist, musician and manager. This is his eighth book.

Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Cardiac Surgery
Cardiac surgery is associated with ischemia and reperfusion injury for most of the operations performed. During the last decades, major improvements have been done in reducing both ischemic and reperfusion injury and therefore improving the quality of the operation. This book summarizes the newest developments in this field. In addition, specific comments are made concerning the surgical application of the fields in all kinds of operation, including routine cases as well as complex procedures. The reader will gain a detailed insight regarding how to protect patients best during routine cardiac procedures (coronary artery revascularization and valve replacement) as well as prolonged, technically demanding operations
