Writing The Blue Hippopotamus was great fun-sort of reliving my early life and making some incidents even better than they were the first time. What I wanted most of all was to write a page-turner, to give the reader a chance to actually live and feel what I had lived and felt. In a sense, my own life was a page-turner, from day to day, and a wonderful one that I enjoyed and loved-even the difficult and painful happenings. I think that I've been tremendously lucky to have had such a-almost a charmed life-and that's what I wanted to share with the reader. Yes, there were moments and incidents that were difficult and sometimes very painful, like when I said my final goodbye to Maidi, the love of my life, and what a remarkable love that was-several professional authors have called that good-bye "heartbreaking," and so it was. It was my heart that was breaking, and Maidi's, but we both knew that it had to be that way, and we accepted it. And then of course, many, many years later, we finally met again by chance, or by accident, in Paris, and the closure we had needed for so many years finally arrived. I wrote the book when I was ninety, and I was the last survivor of our group of five. We had all been made to swear that we would never tell. But after seventy years, I felt the story could, and should, be told.

Five former Air Force combat pilots are meeting every week to discus what they can do about the downward trend of America in the last twenty or thirty years. They feel that this is no longer the country that they loved and fought for. The American Dream," says one, has turned into a nightmare for millions of Americans who are now forced to live on the street in poverty, their homes and family possessions gone and no jobs to be had. Only the very rich are doing very well while paying tiny amounts of taxes and doing little to help the poor. These five flyers have decided to do something about this situation, something drastic.

Von Paul Ehrlich. Seit 25 Jahren habe ich mich bemiiht, den Grundsatz ins Praktische zu iibersetzen, daB ein Arzneistoff nur auf die Korper systeme wirken kann, von denen er aufgenommen wird, und ich bin nun endlich nach langer, miihevoller Arbeit zu einem Ergebnis fiir die Therapie gelangt. Lange stand ich mit meinen Anschau ungen und Bestrebungen isoliert; es war nur mein leider so friih verstorbener Vetter Carl Weigert, d r mich immer und immer wieder anspornte, mich nicht durch MiBerfolge entmutigen zu lassen. DaB es mir gelungen ist, zu einem giinstigen Resultat zu ge langen, ist nicht aHein mein Verdienst. Wie es im Fischereibetrieb dem, der die Fische eines breiten Flusses abfangen will, nur gelingt, einen Erfolg zu erzielen, wenn N etz an N etz gereiht und die letzte Ausgangspforte versperrt wird, so ist fiir den Experimentator eines weiten Gebietes das Gelingen von dem harmonischen Ineinander greifen der Arbeit vieler abhangig. Die Schwierigkeit meiner Ar beitenberuht besonders darauf, daB sie sich auf drei ganzlich ver schiedene Gebiete erstrecken, die einander erganzen und beriihren: die Chemie, die Biologie und die experimentelle Therapie. Wahrend ich in friiheren Jahren nur in kleinem MaBstab arbeiten konnte und jahrelang die benotigtenChemikalien der Liberalitat meines Freundes Arth ur v. Weinberg verdankte, der mir in Herrn Dr. L."

This book is about Padrow Guggenheim, a talented young man whose personal problems need to be resolved. In the beginning he is plagued by hallucinations. As he gets rid of these, his leadership qualities start to take over, and he becomes the heavyweight boxing champion of the world. He also becomes an authority on dirty fighting and exposes a leading Russian fighter, known as Tricky Sergeae, whom he gets sent to jail. Padrow is finally offered a position he cannot refuse, to become a kind of Sir Lancelot to help dirty young street fighters learn to live a life of chivalry and even elegance. Most of this learning takes place in a gorgeous new university made entirely of sculptured and colored glass. Many young girls are madly in love with Padrow, but he is waiting for the real Princess Guinevere to appear and possibly capture his heart

The Fifth Octave is a bit of science-fiction intrigue concerning little green worms from a different galaxy who want to take over the planet Earth because they like it here so much more than their home planet. These fat little worms are very intelligent and very inventive, and one of them, known as Lady V., has taught them how to hear in their minds what others are thinking and planning and how to go great distances and appear to be other people by using the fifth-octave vibrations that are too high for humans to hear. Humans hear them just as a kind of whispering. The worm leader, who goes by the name of Slobbo-his real name is too difficult to pronounce-is a kind of "wormsley" Napoleon, who wants and plans to take over much of the earth and make all the earthlings subservient to him. Many skirmishes occur where many earth people are killed, but very few worms. What was treated as a joke at first becomes a very serious threat. Finally, Slobbo is kidnapped and brought to a planet in the constellation of Orion, but he soon reappears on earth with all his fighting worms intact, making ready to take over. Slobbo has an earthling partner, named Marvin, who works with him because of jealousy on account of a botched love affair, and the two of them are put on trial. Slobbo is sentenced to be shot at sight. Lady V. convinces him to give up his heroic plans, which he does for a while, but then his need to be known as a heroic warrior overpowers him. Finally, the threat of disaster to his whole race of little green worms, including himself, persuades him to forget his heroic plans and become just a pleasant, normal worm.

This book is about a grown man who returns to visit a town in rural Louisiana that he loved as a kid. This town had a sense of backwardness and virtually no modern conveniences, but its residents lived wonderful, carefree lives. He and his precocious daughter and a group of friends decide to improve life in the town without losing any of its charm. There are three levels of townspeople that must be addressed in order to make this work. There are Slimers, whose goal is to take advantage of residents who expect to make money off the naivete of the status quo. There are the Shovels, the name given to residents who have some basic knowledge of the legality of places and buildings and people's rights. And there are Wormsleys-residents who spend most of their time worrying while preparing for the future and who know that, ultimately, they will have to take a stand, along with the Shovelers, against the Slimers. The Shovelers have incorporated into an organization and are also becoming quite proficient in the use of martial arts. Together, these different groups will make this utopian society work.

R566 Discovery Miles 5 660 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Asthma and allergies are at epidemic proportions. It doesn't have to be that way. Two experienced pediatric allergists tell everything a conscientious parent needs to know about these conditions, the best in approved treatments, behavioral changes that can help control them, what families can do to reduce the toll that even severe asthma and allergies take on their lives, the myths and realities of alternative treatments and food allergies, skin allergies, advice for support groups, lists, checklists, and much, much more.
Fun and entertaining, almost every page is enlivened by anecdotes from the authors' decades of practice showing the special rapport that have made them so successful in getting results and keeping patients out of emergency rooms.
They make common cause with overworked pediatricians, general practitioners, and other primary care physicians who, because of the way our health care system is organized, are doing more asthma and allergy treatment than ever before.
But wait There's still more Asthma Allergies Children, the book, is half of a new approach to providing specialty asthma and allergy care. It is being published simultaneously with the launch of AsthmaAllergiesChildren.com, the new town square where parents and primary care physicians can pick the brains of specialists about their own children or patients. The website has mailbags for parents and doctors, pollen counts, news coverage, review of the latest developments in allergy science, "Tip of the Week" for controlling disease and discomfort, and guest editorials by the most important thinkers in the field.
The authors say that they and their colleagues recognize must do more to leverage their knowledge. The ranks of Allergy specialists are dwindling even as the numbers of asthmatic and allergic patients are rising. The cost is immense. Asthma is the single largest cause of school and work absence. Allergic and asthmatic children lose out on all the things that childhood is supposed to be about.
The book is the mother ship of the Asthma Allergies Children enterprise. Read about the connection between your child's nose and lungs, and how stopping allergy symptoms in the nose can reduce the danger of life-threatening asthma attacks; The hazards from chronic inflammation even when there are no visible symptoms; The damage to a child's body from over-reliance on "rescue" medication, and inadequate "control"; How modern technology can tell you if your child has been "naughty or nice"; The use and misuse of allergy testing, and how false positives can result in malnutrition in small children; The strengths and weaknesses of immunotherapy; The stages of an allergic life; and the most sympathetic and wisest advice ever to worried parents about managing a home where a child has severe allergies.
And because every child is special, go to the website to ask that special question.
Asthma Allergies Children: A Parent's Guide and AsthmaAllergiesChildren.com-a winning combination for helping your child lead a happier, healthier life.
A veritable bible for parents of allergic kids. I enjoyed Asthma Allergies Children tremendously. It is full of the kind of great stories that teach both patients and doctors more than mere facts. The science is explained in language you don't need an MD to follow. This book should be kept right next to the antihistamines and epinephrine, and used even more frequently.
--Dr. Lisa Sanders, author of Every Patient Tells a Story. Her NY Times column "Diagnosis" inspired the TV drama, "House MD."
