by Richard AskwithA transformational quest for the secrets of happy, healthy, whole-life running that will change the way you think about growing older.Colourful, informative and inspiring, The Race Against Time is a story of cold science and heart-warming resilience; of champions and also-rans; of sprinting centenarians and forty-something super-athletes barely touched by age.

It is both a very personal account of one man's journey from despair to hope, and an exhilarating guide, explaining how timely adjustments to lifestyle and training can slow the progress of physiological decay, while sheer human spirit can, if you are lucky, keep you running happily and healthily, all the way into extreme old age.
Race Against Time: Searching for Hope in AIDS-Ravaged Africa (The CBC Massey Lectures)
by Stephen Lewis"I have spent the last four years watching people die." With these wrenching words, diplomat and humanitarian Stephen Lewis opens his 2005 CBC Massey Lectures. Lewis's determination to bear witness to the desperate plight of so many in Africa and elsewhere is balanced by his unique, personal, and often searing insider's perspective on our ongoing failure to help. Lewis recounts how, in 2000, the United Nations Millennium Summit in New York introduced eight Millennium Development Goals, which focused on fundamental issues such as education, health, and cutting poverty in half by 2015. In audacious prose, alive with anecdotes ranging from maddening to hilarious to heartbreaking, Lewis shows why and how the international community is falling desperately short of these goals. This edition includes an afterword by Lewis, covering events after the lectures were delivered in fall 2005.
Rabies (Biographies of Disease)
by P. Dileep KumarDiseases have a history, and understanding that history helps us understand how best to treat and control disease today. Today's students are confronted with a panoply of often-frightening illnesses and afflictions—the Biography of Diseases series provides students with the information that they need to understand the origin of various maladies, how they impact contemporary society, and how doctors and diseases researchers from around the world are fighting to devise treatments to alleviate or cure these. This volume, Rabies, examines that disease that caused fear and panic for centuries because of the horror of dying of rabies and the near certainty of death once one has contracted the disease. And despite the famous vaccine discovered by Louis Pasteur in the 19th centuries, thousands still die of rabies every year in developing countries.

Quo Vadis, Humanismus?: Wie wir unsere Menschlichkeit erhalten können - Historische Kontexte, Psychologische Reflexionen, Judenfeindliche Angriffe
by Wolfgang FrindteWie steht es mit den humanistischen Grundlagen unseres Lebens und Zusammenlebens? Müssen wir uns nicht gerade heute dieser Fundamente versichern? Wer greift diese Fundamente an? Um diese Fragen beantworten zu können, nutzt der Autor ein Konstruktionsprinzip, mit dem die humanistischen Anstrengungen seit Petrarca in dreifacher Weise gerahmt werden: Zum einen werden diese Anstrengungen in die jeweiligen historischen Kontexte eingeordnet; zum zweiten greift er auf Reflexionen zurück, die sich in den verschiedenen Entwicklungsetappen der Psychologie explizit oder implizit auf den Humanismus beziehen; drittens schließlich macht er auf judenfeindliche und antisemitische Äußerungen, Vorurteile, Diskriminierungen und Vernichtungsexzesse aufmerksam, um die Ambivalenzen der verschiedenen humanistischen Anstrengungen zu verdeutlichen. Denn, so der Autor, die Einstellung und das Verhalten gegenüber Jüdinnen und Juden sind der Lackmustest eines jeglichen Humanismus.

Quit Like a Woman: The Radical Choice to Not Drink in a Culture Obsessed with Alcohol
by Holly Glenn WhitakerWe live in a world obsessed with drinking. We drink at work events, lunches, book clubs and weddings. Yet no one ever questions alcohol's ubiquity. In fact, the only thing ever questions is why people don't drink. It is a qualifier for belonging. As a society, we are obsessed with health and wellness, yet we uphold alcohol as some sort of magic elixir. It is anything but. When Holly Whitaker started to look for a way to recover, the support systems she found for recovery where archaic and patriarchal. Urging drinkers towards a newfound humility is great if you're a man, but if you're a woman and not in a position to renounce privileges you never had, a whole other approach is needed. She embarked on a journey that led not only to her own sobriety, but revealed the insidious role alcohol plays in our society and in the lives of women in particular. What's more, she could not ignore the ways that alcohol companies were targeting women, just as the tobacco industry had successfully done generations before. Honest, witty and trenchant, Quit Like a Woman is at once a ground-breaking look at drinking culture, a call to arms, and a celebration of learning how to claim everything life has to offer.
