SEASON 1
"I'm Liz Parker and five days ago I died. After that, things got really weird." So begins a new life for Liz and her friend Maria after they discover that three of their classmates at Roswell High aren't exactly from "around here". To be more exact, Max, Isabel and Michael are from "up there". Having grown up quietly within the community, their alien identities are suddenly jeopardized after Max uses his powers to save Liz's life. Now the alien trio must learn to trust their human friends even as they struggle to discover their own true identities.

SEASON 2
While the first season of Roswell introduced us to the other-worldly teenagers living in the tiny but notorious town of Roswell, New Mexico, the second season finds them with their enemy amongst them, in the midst of a war for the survival of their entire race. Who will be left on Earth at the end of the season?

SEASON 3
Roswell Season 3 continues to chart the lives of the alien inhabitants of Roswell, New Mexico where a trail of devastation and destruction has been left in the aftermath of Tess' shock departure. Tess has taken Max's unborn child back to their home planet and Max is left feeling alone and confused towards Tess and his unborn son, heir to the throne. The third and final piece in the Roswell jigsaw sees the aliens' true identities become known to more people, with tough decisions to be made.

Our daughter experienced a sudden and very dramatic onset of the mental disorder known as anorexia nervosa: She became like another person almost overnight, and then lost 30% of her body weight in three months. Shocked and horrified, we responded just as feverishly -- scouring the Internet for resources, reading every book and article we could find, attending parent support groups, and seeking advice from experts. Unfortunately, our desperate efforts couldn't keep pace with her illness, and many decisions had to be made before we fully understood or knew how to deal with it. Those decisions included: Do we allow her to return to college (the week following what we experienced as perhaps a psychotic break)? If so, how do we make sure she?ll be safe? What kind of treatment team do we assemble? What level of treatment, and which facilities should we have her attend? We were under siege before we even knew war had been declared. We repeatedly found ourselves reeling from its effects before we could gather and assimilate enough information -- i.e., the right information -- and certainly before we grasped the complexity of this new and terrifying terrain. Unfortunately, the myriad decisions forced upon us became intractable. We ended up with teams that didn't act as aggressively as we wanted them to, and when we pressed them for information about their treatment rationale, we were treated as if we had caused her illness or were at least perpetuating it. We ended up with many caregivers who promised to not let our daughter fall through the proverbial crack, but then did exactly that, repeatedly. Knowing that anorexia is an illness in which swift and aggressive treatment ensures a better chance of recovery, we now wonder if choices made by those early caregivers caused her unnecessarily prolonged agony. Did their decisions -- made in part because we didn't know enough to ask the right questions -- cause her anorexia to take hold in a way from which she may never fully recover? For parents who find themselves in a similar situation, this book provides (1) the most important things to know about the illness, (2) a historical context regarding the way anorexia has been viewed, (3) an explanation of the enormous (and dangerous) divide that exists between current research and many treatment strategies, and (4) practical information to help avoid or mitigate the inevitable pitfalls.

This title is filled with useful and practical language learning strategies designed to help doctors, nurses and other healthcare workers (who do not speak an indigenous language) to learn an African language through their daily contact with patients. More than this, it gives advice on ways to reach some understanding of the culture, health beliefs and world views of the patient in a medical consultation. Although English/Zulu and the Zulu medical culture are used as the examples, the underlying themes are applicable to any culture. The book has retained the humour and wit of its predecessor, Learning Language and Culture in the Medical Consultation, but it has been considerable revised and expanded to include more material on the cross-cultural consultation, the Aids pandemic, as well as appendices of vocabulary and 'survival phrases' designed to facilitate communication and understanding in a medical context.
