Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are increasingly recognised
as playing a significant role in the health sector in developing
countries. This book examines the background to the growth both in
the sector and interest in it, the strengths and weaknesses of NGOs
and the arguments for and against their use for different aspects
of the health sector. It focuses particularly on the relationship
between the State and non-governmental organizations and the issues
critical to the development of policies towards the sector.

Using the principles of Lateral Thinking for story-telling, author
and screenwriter, Lee A. Matthias shows writers how to generate and
develop their best ideas for movies and novels.
The theft of a pocket-watch and the appearance of a mysterious,
locked strongbox bring famed magician Harry Houdini together with
consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes, in a case that rocks Britain
to its core. When the magician is blackmailed into besting the
box's lock, Holmes and Houdini expose a plot against the Crown
itself. In the tradition of Nicholas Meyer's bestseller, "The 7%
Solution," Lee Matthias recreates Arthur Conan Doyle's magnificent
style and characters in "The Pandora Plague," a period feast,
bursting with the raucous energy of a world throwing off the
romanticism of the Victorian Age for the power and dangerous
potential of science, new philosophies, and the machine. Sherlock
Holmes is at his peak. The brash, young Houdini challenges all who
stand in his way. And Watson, Holmes's chronicler and friend,
returns us to a time when the gas was always lit, the Persian
slipper always filled with shag, and the game was, once again, and
at long last...afoot.
