Hope in hell : inside the the world of Doctors Without Borders / by Bortolotti, Dan.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 300-313) and index.An often harrowing account of the men and women who struggle to improve the lives of people in desperate need. The humanitarian organization, Doctors Without Borders (also known as Médecins Sans Frontières or MSF) delivers emergency aid to victims of armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters and those who lack reliable health care. Each year, more than 2,500 volunteer doctors, nurses, and other professionals join locally-hired staff to provide medical aid in more than eighty countries. This book follows these volunteers as they risk their health and lives to treat patients in need. It also covers the raucous founding of Doctors Without Borders in 1971 as the first non-governmental organization to both provide emergency medical assistance and publicly bear witness to the plight of the populations they served. In 1999, the organization was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.--From publisher description.

Battlefields in miniature : making realistic and effective terrain for wargames/ by Davies, Paul,author.(CARDINAL)746553;
About the author -- Introduction -- Welcome to the workshop -- What's everyone else doing? -- Before you get started -- Terrain cloths -- Terrain tiles -- Custom or sculpted terrain -- Rivers and ponds -- Islands, cliffs and hills -- Trees -- Walls -- Fences and screens -- Hedges -- Gates -- Cultivated fields -- Roads -- Bridges -- Defences -- Buildings."LIKE A GOOD GENERAL, A GOOD WARGAMER should have an eye for the ground. Just as the nature of the battlefield plays a central role in real warfare, so miniature wargames are greatly enhanced by realistic terrain. Besides, when you've spent hundreds of hours collecting and painting your miniature armies, they surely deserve ground worth fighting for. Master terrain modeller Paul Davies takes the reader through the process of creating a visually appealing yet practical terrain system. First the techniques of making the basic landscape are explained, then a series of projects show how this can be adapted to suit different periods or geographic locations (eg European farmland or Sudanese desert). There are then detailed chapters on adding vegetation, buildings, roadways, trench systems etc. The clear, step-by-step instructions are illustrated by numerous specially-taken photographs of the work in progress and Paul's inspirational finished pieces."--
