Servant Leadership in Management Practice
The starting point for this book is a review of servant leadership and how many well-known authors have situated their view of this subject. It situates this concept in the context of foodbanks and the volunteer workforce, bringing together the personal narratives of individual volunteers. The issues which emerged from these stories are presented in reference to volunteering, supportive management, organisation, and reflections on the future of volunteer community groups. The book also offers an explanation of the narrative approach utilised to record the personal stories of those involved, highlighting specific dominant themes in the narratives, which are framed with quotations to heighten understanding and meaning within the commentary. Reflection and discussion on the main points illuminate the detailed narratives, and underline the importance of the unpaid workforce. The conclusion includes some practical concerns, which will impact upon the future of the foodbank emergency food service, as we know it today.
Shaken Not Stirred
An illuminating series of anecdotal stories concerning the adventurous life of a privileged woman who, through a combination of force of circumstance and fate, experienced unbelievable professional and personal achievements. Conversely, she also suffered the real physical pain and personal loss rarely handed to people from her background. Another motivation towards the recounting of her story is as an illustration of the terrible inequity of the US health system towards those of lesser means. Primarily, though, her life story is an example that with work, determination, the right partner, judgement, and a little luck, much that is lost can be regained and permanent happiness is always obtainable.

Introduction to Physics in Modern Medicine
The medical applications of physics are not typically covered in introductory physics courses. Introduction to Physics in Modern Medicine fills that gap by explaining the physical principles behind technologies such as surgical lasers or computed tomography (CT or CAT) scanners. Each chapter includes a short explanation of the scientific background, making this book highly accessible to those without an advanced knowledge of physics. It is intended for medicine and health studies students who need an elementary background in physics, but it also serves well as a non-mathematical introduction to applied physics for undergraduate students in physics, engineering, and other disciplines.
Big Shots
In 2003, Adam Shand naively set out to unravel Melbourne's bloody gangland wars. A few months' research, a guaranteed cover story. But his foray into the underworld took him deeper than that. He became embroiled in a complex world where feuds raged between rival families, and where a new generation was clashing with the criminal Establishment. Before long, he found himself counted as a friend by those who sometimes ended friendships with a hail of bullets. In this fully updated edition, taking in the events of 2010, including the murder of Carl Williams, Big Shots takes the reader into the heart of the city's multibillion-dollar 'disorganised crime' scene, as Shand meets the key figures and suspects, including Carl and Roberta Williams, Mick Gatto and many others. He discovers the human drama behind the brutal slayings that were splashed across the front pages, and in the process comes to questions his objectivity.
