On their second trip to Australia, Ruth and Harold met a couple during a Great Barrier Reef cruise. They and their children eventually became great friends. Lynette and Rob had lived in Washington, DC and had traveled all over the world, but they had never been to the Outback. So when the opportunity to explore it under the sponsorship of the highly respected National Trust appeared, they seized the chance and invited the Harbaughs along. The almost three week journey involved one widely traveled American couple, 14 reserved Aussies, and a driver named Dave. Together they explored deserted telegraph stations, hidden water holes, and compelling Outback attractions rarely seen by outsiders. The well educated Australians aboard were expecting a university scholar to conduct this 8,000 mile circle that included 5 of the 7 Australian States and 1 Territory, but they ended up with Dave, a mate whose favorites subjects were beer, fishing, and lame, politically incorrect jokes.
Acupuncture can play a vital role in helping the growing number of cancer survivors adjust to life after receiving cancer treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. This includes managing the physical and emotional after-effects of diagnosis and treatment, making healthy lifestyle choices, coping with fear of recurrence, learning how to manage a chronic condition, and establishing the "new normal" that is the legacy of a cancer diagnosis and its treatments. As a guide for practitioners, it aims to help acupuncturists to: · Understand the challenges faced by cancer survivors who have completed treatment (surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy) · Understand the biomedical context of the consequences of cancer treatments · Relate their patient's cancer experience to the principles of east Asian medicine · Treat some specific consequences of cancer treatment · Work safely with cancer survivors · Support cancer survivors on an emotional level · Help patients come to terms with a chronic condition and adjust to the "new normal" · Manage expectations of both patient and practitioner · Access the research that has been conducted in this field.
"After examining a slew of guidebooks to Australia, this was my clear favorite, the one that's torn and underlined; pages folded back; in other words the one I really used. Unlike so many guides that are just full of facts, this, in the style of other Frommer books, is written in a chatty manner, as if an expert acquaintance is helping you make your plans." —New Orleans' Times-Picayune You'll never fall into the tourist traps when you travel with Frommer's. It's like having a friend show you around, taking you to the places locals like best. Our expert authors have already gone everywhere you might go-they've done the legwork for you, and they're not afraid to tell it like it is, saving yo...
Die polnische Biologin Cindy Kapinski wird von dem geheimnisvollen Geschäftsmann Mr. Drummond beauftragt, dessen Tierzuchtanlage zu begutachten. Er behauptet, ein lebendes Exemplar des seit 1936 ausgestorbenen Tasmanischen Tigers zu besitzen. Als sie seinen Firmensitz in London aufsucht, verschwindet ihr Gastgeber auf mysteriöse Weise. Zusammen mit ihrem ehemaligen Studienkollegen Alex Horn begibt sich Cindy auf Spurensuche. Bei ihrer Recherche stößt sie auf zweifelhafte Geschäfte der Firma und untersucht das Auftauchen geheimnisvoller Tierwesen in Europa. In der Ostsee treibt ein unbekannter Hai sein Unwesen und in der Lüneburger Heide schleicht ein Wolf durch die Dörfer. Für Cindy beginnt ein Wettlauf gegen die Zeit, als sie von undurchsichtigen Männern verfolgt wird, die bei der Jagd auf seltene Tiere vor nichts zurückschrecken.

'Once treatment stops, and people leave strictly managed clinical environments, survivors feel as though they had "fallen off a cliff edge"... feeling isolated and abandoned at a time when support is needed the most'. - Mental Health Foundation From the final infusion to the five-year check, After Breast Cancer gives a step-by-step support package to coping post-treatment. It follows on from Sara Liyanage's successful coverage of diagnosis and treatment in Ticking Off Breast Cancer, and is driven not only by her experience of illness, but underpinned by contributions from leading oncologists, heads of cancer services, and clinical consultant psychologists.
