Bestiality, battered babies and bucket loads of bodily fluids are
the order of the day in this gross-out comedy horror sequel. The
flesh-hungry monsters are on the rampage once again, this time in a
neighbouring town, and the locals must join forces with the
survivors from the first film to figure out how they can possibly
survive their indiscriminately vicious onslaught.
For fans of Netflix's The Last Dance, this is the definitive
account of Michael Jordan's spectacular and disastrous return to
basketball. As one of the greatest, most celebrated athletes in
history, Michael Jordan conquered professional basketball as no one
before. Powered by a potent mix of charisma, near superhuman
abilities and a ferocious drive to dominate the game, he achieved
every award and accolade conceivable before retiring from the
Chicago Bulls and taking an executive post with the Washington
Wizards. But retirement didn't suit the man who was once king, and
at the advanced age of thirty-eight Michael Jordan decided it was
time to reclaim the court that was once his. Having closely
followed Jordan's final two seasons, Michael Leahy draws a
fascinating portrait of an intensely complex man hampered by
injuries and assaulted by younger players eager to usurp his
throne. In this enthralling book Jordan emerges as an ambitious, at
times deeply unattractive character with, unsurprisingly, a
monstrous ego. WHEN NOTHING ELSE MATTERS is an absorbing portrait
not only of one athlete's overriding ambition, but also of a
society so in thrall to its sports stars that it is blind to all
their faults.
This book examines the important role of consumer activism in
health policy in different national contexts. In an age of shifting
boundaries between state and civil society, consumer groups are
potentially drivers of democratization in the health domain. The
expert contributors explore how their activities bring new dynamics
to relations between service providers, the medical profession,
government agencies, and other policy actors. This book is unique
in comprehensively analyzing the opportunities and dilemmas of this
type of activism, including ambiguous partnerships between consumer
groups and stakeholders such as the pharmaceutical industry. These
themes are explored within an internationally comparative
framework, with case studies from various countries. Students and
researchers in the fields of health policy and sociology, public
policy and social movements will find this relevant and
path-breaking book enlightening. It will also prove invaluable for
participants and activists in patient and health consumer
organizations. Contributors include: K. Adams, W. Armstrong, R.
Baggott, R. Bal, S. Barraclough, G. Braunegger-Kallinger, J.
Church, D. Delnoij, R. Edwards, R. Forster, M. Fox, B. Fredericks,

As one of the greatest, most celebrated athletes in history,
Michael Jordan conquered professional basketball as no one had
before. Powered by a potent mix of charisma, nearly superhuman
abilities, and a ferocious need to dominate the game, he won six
NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls and captured every
basketball award and accolade conceivable before retiring and
taking a top executive post with the Washington Wizards. But
retirement didn't suit the man who was once king, and at the
advanced age of thirty-eight Michael Jordan set out to reclaim the
court that had been his dominion. "When Nothing Else Matters" is
the definitive account of Jordan's equally spectacular and
disastrous return to basketball. "Washington Post" writer Michael
Leahy reveals the striking contrast between the public Jordan and
the man whose personal style alienated teammates and the Washington
owner who ousted him.
