"This book will empower you with knowledge that just might save your life or the life of a loved one" (Ty M. Bollinger, author of The Truth About Cancer). When it comes to cancer, conventional doctors are trained to treat their patients exclusively with surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. These methods are grueling on the whole body - and they don't treat beyond the tumor or the cancer itself. The focus is on the disease, not the whole person - and because of this, the outcomes in conventional medicine can be bleak. But it doesn't have to be this way. Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy has developed a whole-person approach to treating cancer - and these treatments have helped thousands of patients through her Cancer Center for Healing.

Eggs I Have Laid - Meredith Willson

Back in print: the playful and personal memoir of Meredith Willson’s creative tribulations and triumphs before The Music Man Composer, musical director, writer, lecturer, and piccoloist Meredith Willson laid many eggs throughout his career—but not all those eggs would hatch quite so gloriously as his Broadway hit The Music Man. In Eggs I Have Laid, Willson genially chronicles the failures that he faced as he made his place in show business during the pivotal early 1950s, when radio was being overtaken by television. From Hollywood to New York, London, and Paris, and back to his hometown of Mason City, Iowa, Willson sets each scene vividly, bringing to life his encounters with zeitgeist stars, from collaborators Tallulah Bankhead and Fred Allen to Orson Welles and Carmen Miranda. His signature wit excels as he relates his tales of eggs dropped, notable among them the lavishly produced variety program The Big Show, his ill-fated attempt to be a radio bulwark against the encroaching tide of television. First published in 1955, Eggs I Have Laid features delightful curiosities, like an eight-page “platonic dialogue” about quitting smoking and the lyrics to a love song with the occupancy limits of the New York Fire Code as ...

O čem mluvíme, když mluvíme o Anne Frankové - Nathan Englander

Svazek osmi povídek Nathana Englandera ohledává s nepřehlédnutelnou stylistickou bravurou, svérázným humorem a smyslem pro zdravou provokativnost problematiku moderní židovské identity. Titulní próza, upomínající názvem na známou povídku Raymonda Carvera "O čem mluvíme, když mluvíme o lásce", využívá Carverovy výchozí situace nezávazného hovoru dvou mladých manželských párů a tématu holokaustu ke zcela nečekanému mrazivému vyústění. I v mnoha dalších povídkách dokáže Englander překvapit bizarní nadsázkou, téměř singerovským využitím alegorických a mytických prvků či razantním uchopením tématu dobra versus zla, jako by se snažil zkoumat meze povídkového žánru a beletristického textu vůbec. Finalista Pulitzerovy ceny 2012. Jedna z nejlepších knih roku 2012 v hodnocení listů New York Times, Kansas City Star a Kirkus Reviews. Vítěz Ceny Franka O'Connora.

True History of the First Mrs. Meredith and Other Lesser Lives - Gornick Vivian, Diane Johnson

A classic of alternative biography and feminist writing, this empathetic and witty book gives due to a "lesser" figure of history, Mary Ellen Peacock Meredith, who was brilliant, unconventional, and at odds with the constraints of Victorian life. “Many people have described the Famous Writer presiding at his dinner table. . . . He is famous; everybody remembers his remarks. . . . We forget that there were other family members at the table—a quiet person, now muffled by time, shadowy, whose heart pounded with love, perhaps, or rage.” So begins The True History of the First Mrs. Meredith and Other Lesser Lives, an uncommon biography devoted to one of those “lesser lives.” As the author points out, “A lesser life does not seem lesser to the person who leads one.” Such sympathy and curiosity compelled Diane Johnson to research Mary Ellen Peacock Meredith (1821–1861), the daughter of the famous artist Thomas Love Peacock (1785–1866) and first wife of the equally famous poet George Meredith (1828–1909). Her life, treated perfunctorily and prudishly in biographies of Peacock or Meredith, is here exquisitely and unhurriedly given its due. What emerges is the portrait of a brilliant, well-educated woman, raised unconventionally by her ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Whately's Historic Doubts about Napoleon's Existence and the Preliminary Question - David Berman

This book examines Richard Whately''s classic book Historic Doubts Relative to Napoleon Buonaparte. After considering its textual development, the analysis focusses on Whately''s idea of the ‘Preliminary Question’; the idea that in the debate about Jesus’s miracles there is a more basic question that has been overlooked and which invalidates the debate. It is asked whether the notion of a Preliminary Question might not illuminate other philosophical disputes. Finally, a variant of the Preliminary Question is proposed in which both positions in a dispute are shown to be true and this form of the question is invoked to shed light on the debate between metaphysical monists and dualists and to revisit the debate about miracles.This book is essential reading for all scholars of the philosophy or religion and British 19th century philosophy. It is also of interest to scholars researching David Hume and Bertrand Russell.

Cancer - Nick James

In 1961 John F. Kennedy pledged to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade. Nine years later, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon. Ten years later, Richard Nixon echoed this pledge by declaring a ''war'' on cancer. More than 50 years later, however, cancer remains one of the largest causes of death worldwide, with around 1 in 3 developing the disease. Curing cancer is not ''rocket science'', but the question is, why has cancer proved to be harder to tackle than the moon landings turned out to be? Cancer research is a major economic activity. There are constant improvements in treatment techniques that result in better cure rates and increased quality and quantity of life for those with the disease, yet stories of breakthroughs in a cure for cancer are often in the media. In this Very Short Introduction Nick James examines the trends in diagnosis and treatment of the disease, as well as its economic consequences. Asking what cancer is and what causes it, he considers issues surrounding expensive drug development, what can be done to reduce the risk of developing cancer, and the use of complementary and alternative therapies.

The Cancer Code - Dr Jason Fung

Our understanding of cancer is slowly undergoing a revolution, allowing for the development of more effective treatments. For the first time ever, the death rate from cancer is showing a steady decline … but the ‘War on Cancer’ has hardly been won.In The Cancer Code, Dr Jason Fung offers a revolutionary new understanding of this invasive, often fatal disease – what it is, how it manifests and why it is so challenging to treat. In this rousing narrative, Dr Fung identifies the medical community’s many missteps in cancer research – in particular, its focus on genetics, or what he terms the ‘seed’ of cancer, at the expense of examining the ‘soil,’ or the conditions under which cancer flourishes. Dr Fung – whose ground-breaking work in the treatment of obesity and diabetes has won him international acclaim – suggests that the primary disease pathway of cancer is caused by the dysregulation of insulin. In fact, obesity and type 2 diabetes significantly increase an individual’s risk of cancer.In this accessible read, Dr Fung provides a new paradigm for dealing with cancer, with recommendations for what we can do to create a hostile soil for this dangerous seed.

Cancer through the Lens of Evolution and Ecology

Cancer cells exist in an ever-changing “ecology” and are subject to evolutionary pressures just like any species in nature. This edited book explores the following themes: 1) how the dynamics of mutation, epigenetics, and gene expression noise are sources of genetic diversity; 2) how scarce resources influence cancer therapy resistance; 3) how predator-prey dynamics are mirrored in immune-cancer cross-talk; 4) how cancer cells parallel niche construction theory; 5) how changing fitness landscapes enable cancer growth; and 6) how cancer cells interact within the body. The book is a resource for understanding cancer as a disease of multicellularity grounded in evolutionary principles. By using this knowledge, researchers are starting to exploit these behaviors for treatment paradigms.Key FeaturesBridges disciplines exemplifying the ways disparate fields create new perspectives when integrated.Offers insights from leading scholars in cancer biology, ecology and evolutionary biology.Provides a timely recognition by oncologists that evolutionary paradigms are crucial for breakthroughs in cancer treatment.Integrates basic and applied sciences of oncology and evolutionary biology.

Dva eseje o komedii - Alena Dvořáková, George Meredith

George Meredith: Esej o komedii a uplatnění komického ducha Alena Dvořáková: Studie k Meredithovu Eseji o komedii Smát se, či nesmát? To je otázka, již se viktoriánský romanopisec George Meredith snaží rozlousknout v dnes již klasickém Eseji o komedii z roku 1877, který je tu čtenáři poprvé představen v anotovaném českém překladu. Esej je zábavnou polemikou namířenou proti neživotným hodnotám viktoriánské společnosti, zejména proti důrazu na vážnost, na úzce definovaný společenský užitek, na ideál ženskosti spočívající v nerovnosti pohlaví. Coby jejich protiváhu obhajuje Meredith komično na divadle i ve společnosti: "existují témata a osoby, s nimiž je radno zacházet výhradně v komickém duchu." Doprovodná studie Aleny Dvořákové zasazuje Esej do kontextu anglické a západoevropské literatury o smíchu a komičnu a podrobně rozebírá Meredithův přístup ke komedii. Alena Dvořáková (nar. 1973 v Praze) je anglistka, literární kritička a překladatelka. Zabývá se zejména viktoriánskou literaturou, současnou anglofonní prózou a jejími překlady do češtiny. Je autorkou řady kritických a literárněvědných článků a recenzí, do češtiny přeložila román Cormaca McCarthyho Suttree (Argo, 2012). Vyučovala literaturu a filosofii na University of East Anglia v Norwichi, University College a Trinity College v Dublinu a na Jihočeské univerzitě v Českých Budějovicích. V současnosti je na volné noze.

A New Deal for Cancer : Lessons from a 50 Year War

An unprecedented constellation of experts—leading cancer doctors, policymakers, cutting-edge researchers, national advocates, and more—explore the legacy and the shortcomings from the fifty-year war on cancer and look ahead to the future.The longest war in the modern era, longer than the Cold War, has been the war on cancer. Cancer is a complex, evasive enemy, and there was no quick victory in the fight against it. But the battle has been a monumental test of medical and scientific research and fundraising acumen, as well as a moral and ethical challenge to the entire system of medicine. In A New Deal for Cancer, some of today’s leading thinkers, activists, and medical visionaries describe the many successes in the long war and the ways in which our deeper failings as a society have held us back from a more complete success.Together they present an unrivaled and nearly complete map of the battlefield across dimensions of science, government, equity, business, the patient provider experience, and more, documenting our emerging understanding of cancer’s many unique dimensions and offering bold new plans to enable the American health care system to deliver progress and hope to all patients.
