The ultimate enrichment and survival guide for Foundation Programme doctors, Staying Human During the Foundation Programme and Beyond provides time-tested advice and the latest information on every aspect of a junior doctor's life - from clinical transitions, to coping with stress, enhancing self-care and protecting personal and professional relationships. Already acknowledged in its original Canadian edition as an invaluable resource by thousands of doctors working across North America, this UK adaptation - with a host of new material and features - offers evidence-based practical advice to junior doctors on how to cope with a wide-range of challenges including working in teams, sleep deprivation, time pressures and ethical issues, while at the same time maintaining a high level of patient care and safety. The authors also address subjects such as sexuality, equality and social justice.
For centuries, men have been growing and styling their facial hair, whether for the sake of vanity, religion, or cultural considerations, but most of us don't give it a second thought. "The Bearded Gentleman" is an authoritative yet lighthearted guide that offers detailed information on some fifty specific facial hair styles: where they come from, how to grow them, and how to maintain them. Among them are many well-known styles, such as the Handlebar, the Fu Manchu, the Goatee, the Van Dyck, and the more recent Soul Patch. But there are also those that are less familiar, including the Horseshoe, the Lampshade, the Painter's Brush, the Landing Strip, the French Fork, and El Insecto (a.k.a. the Mighty). There's also practical advice on choosing a facial hair style that's right for you, as well as insight into how facial hair has figured in the history of masculinity, including its impact on politics, class, and sexuality. "The Bearded Gentleman" is an entertaining, witty, and useful guide to facial hair styles and the men who wear them. Allan Peterkin's previous books include "One Thousand Beards: A Cultural History of Facial Hair," featured in "Time," "Esquire," and "The New Yorker." Nick Burns is one of the leading writers on men's grooming; he has covered skin care, fashion, and health for publications including "The New York Times," "GQ," "Details," and "Out," and he is author of the popular men's style blog HommeGrooming.com.

This fun story about the highs and lows of media stardom is perfect for readers not yet ready for Charlotte's Web. A gorgeous peacock hatches an escape from the zoo in search of fame, only to realize that it's not all that it's cracked up to be, and that instant stardom can be tough and beauty is more than feathers deep. Peacock loves to see his friend Sketch, a girl who comes to the zoo and inks drawings of him. But life was lonely when she wasn't around. As a free bird, his adventures attract all the attention he’d always dreamed of, adoring fans, tons of photos, and news headlines. But when he starts to molt, as peacocks do, his tail feathers fall out. His fame evaporates, and Peacock finally comes to appreciate Sketch, who’s stayed by his side from the beginning. This story is a lighthearted exploration of the fleeting nature of social media stardom, and the importance of real-world friendships. Includes a Note to Parents and Caregivers about how to navigate social media with kids. Â
