We all know someone, or maybe we are that someone, who has been affected by cancer.Close Up: Poems on Cancer, Grief, Hope and Healing is a new collection of poetry that recognizes the depth of human spirit in the face of some of life's greatest hardships. This sequence of poetry features voices of those who have experienced, or who are currently experiencing, cancer. Alongside these are contributions from carers, friends and family, health professionals, and those who offer their support from afar. Many of these poems are personal reflections of cancer and its unrelenting challenges, while others instead offer intimate views on illness, loss, life and love. At its most heart-breaking, this collection features words written in memory of those no longer with us. This anthology serves as a medium for exploring the complexities of grief, while also celebrating life and survival - and ultimately bringing together a chorus of voices joined in support and understanding. Proceeds from sales of this book will be directed towards charities in aid of cancer research and support.

Evolution of Tertiary mammals of North America / by Gunnell, Gregg F.(CARDINAL)324636; Jacobs, Louis L.(CARDINAL)324637; Janis, Christine M.(Christine Marie),1950-(CARDINAL)324639; Scott, Kathleen M.(Kathleen Marie)(CARDINAL)324638; Uhen, Mark D.(CARDINAL)324635;

Includes bibliographical references and indexes.v. 1. Terrestrial carnivores, ungulates, and ungulatelike mammals -- v. 2. Small mammals, xenarthrans, and marine mammals.Volume 1: This book is a unique compendium and synthesis of the cumulative knowledge of more than 100 years of discovery and study of North American tertiary mammals. The potentially most valuable contribution of this book is the detailed information of the distribution in time and space of each species at fossil localities, recorded in a uniform scheme, so that each chapter provides the same level of information. Thirty six chapters are devoted to a particular family or order, written by leading North American authorities, including discussion of anatomical features, systematics, and paleobiology. Three introductory chapters summarize information on the geological time scale, Tertiary vegetation, and Pleistocene events, and four summary chapters integrate systematic and biogeographic information for higher taxa. This book will serve as a unique data base for continuing studies in faunal diversification and change, and for questions such as how changing biogeography and climates influenced the evolution of mammalian communities. It will be an invaluable addition to the libraries of paleontologists and zoologists. A unique compendium and synthesis of the cumulative knowledge of more than 100 years of discovery and study of North American Tertiary mammals. Thirty six chapters are devoted to a particular family or order, written by a leading North American authority, including discussion of less anatomical features, systematics, and paleobiology. Will serve as a unique data base for continuing studies in faunal diversification and change. Volume 2: This is a hands-on guide for graduate students and young researchers wishing to perfect the practical skills needed for a successful research career. By teaching junior scientists to develop effective research habits, the book helps to make the experience of graduate study a more efficient and rewarding one. The authors have taught a graduate course on the topics covered for many years, and provide a sample curriculum for instructors in graduate schools wanting to teach a similar course. Topics covered include: choosing a research topic, department, and advisor; making workplans; the ethics of research; using scientific literature; perfecting oral and written communication; publishing papers; writing proposals; managing time effectively; and planning a scientific career and applying for jobs in research and industry. The wealth of advice is invaluable to students, junior researchers and mentors in all fields of science, engineering, and the humanities.Completes the mammalian survey started in Volume 1. Contains updates of the occurrence and systematics of all of the groups covered in Volume 1. Chapters are written by leading authorities on the subject.
