This authoritative handbook, part of the Helm Identification Guides
series, looks in detail at the world's 170 species of robins and
chats. This large family of small passerines was formerly
considered to be part of the thrush family (Turdidae), but is now
usually treated as a separate family, Muscicapidae, together with
the Old World flycatchers. The vast majority of species are
Eurasian or African, with only a handful of species straying into
the New World or Australasia. The Australian Robins, although
superficially similar, have long been regarded as a separate
family. Robins and chats are a diverse family comprising both
highly colourful and visible species, such as the robin-chats of
Africa, as well as some of the most skulking and elusive birds,
such as the shortwings of Asia. Many chats, such as the well-known
Nightingale, are renowned songsters, and a good number are highly
sought-after by world listers for their extreme rarity or simply
because they are hard to see. This book discusses the
identification and habits of these birds on a species-by-species
basis, bringing together the very latest research with accurate
range maps, more than 600 stunning colour photographs that
illustrate age and racial plumage differences, and 64 superb colour
plates by the internationally renowned artist, Chris Rose. This
authoritative and sumptuous book will be an essential purchase for
all chat enthusiasts, and will become the standard reference on the
subject for many years to come.

Option 2F.2: South Africa, 1948-94: From apartheid state to
'rainbow nation'
With A Character Sketch By His Father George Somes Layard.
Now the cold war is over, why are the intelligence services of
Britain, the United States and Israel so interested in locating and
possibly 'eliminating' an elderly Russian scientist? Because he's
one of the world's leading experts in biological warfare and he's
heading for the Gulf, possibly en route to Iraq. But the action
doesn't stop there. For some reason, two agents from the American
anti-drug squad are also in hot pursuit. Then there's the group
that calls itself Providence Two. Is this really a dangerous
terrorist cell, and what is their interest in the runaway
scientist? There's even the threat of war in the Middle East when
an Israeli intelligence agent stumbles across a consignment of
deadly missiles. The outcome is uncertain. Will the Russian
scientist find safety, or will he fall victim to one of the
hunters? In this tense and exhilarating thriller, you're not sure
whose agenda will be the winning one until the final spectacular
showdown.
"Heartpounding suspense," hailed Entertainment Weekly of Peter
Clement's first medical thriller, Lethal Practice. Now the former
ER physician has done it again--combining his technical expertise
with a page-burning plot to create a chillingly plausible novel of
suspense.
With authentic detail and a surgeon's precision, Clement captures
the tense, electrifying atmosphere of a big city hospital turned
into a flash point. For in Fatal Medicine, one threat is more
dangerous than contagion: the threat of human beings deciding who
should live and who should die. . . .
Death is a daily, sometimes hourly, occurrence at St. Vincent's
Hospital in Buffalo, New York. Now, in his pressure cooker career,
Dr. Earl Garnet has broken the cardinal rule of modern medicine: he
publicly blames a powerful HMO for practicing "no-fault murder" in
the death of an eighteen-month-old baby. The HMO swiftly strikes
back, igniting a debilitating boycott of the hospital. But after
several accidents nearly cost patients their lives, the true
bloodletting begins. A doctor is found sprawled out in the parking
lot, his throat cut ear to ear.
Blamed for instigating the chaos, Earl Garnet knows that he faces
more than a deadly power play. The doctor may have uncovered a
conspiracy reaching from the halls of one of the nation's most
influential HMOs to a small, experimental clinic in Mexico, where
yet another of his patients went for treatment and disappeared. To
find answers, Garnet must wade deep into the murky, surreal
workings of today's health care industry.
Smart, tough, crackling with suspense, and vivid in its hospital
setting, this visionary novel instantly places Peter Clement in the
distinguished company of Michael Palmer and Robin Cook. Make no
mistake: The Procedure is the work of a first-rate physician and an
absolutely brilliant storyteller.
