The Apothecary's Curse

The Apothecary's Curse

Barnett Barbara

In Victorian London, the fates of physician Simon Bell and apothecary Gaelan Erceldoune entwine when Simon gives his wife an elixir created by Gaelan from an ancient manuscript. Meant to cure her cancer, it kills her. Suicidal, Simon swallows the remainder-only to find he cannot die. Five years later, hearing rumors of a Bedlam inmate with regenerative powers like his own, Simon is shocked to discover it's Gaelan. The two men conceal their immortality, but the only hope of reversing their condition rests with Gaelan's missing manuscript. When modern-day pharmaceutical company Transdiff Genomics unearths diaries describing the torture of Bedlam inmates, the company's scientists suspect a link between Gaelan and an unnamed inmate. Gaelan and Transdiff Genomics geneticist Anne Shawe are powerfully drawn to each other, and her family connection to his manuscript leads to a stunning revelation. Will it bring ruin or redemption?

Barnett R. Rubin, one of the world’s leading scholars of contemporary conflict and politics in Afghanistan, offers unique insights into the country’s turbulent history, gleaned from four decades of work as a scholar and practitioner for both the United Nations and the United States. After situating the formation of modern Afghanistan in its long-term historical context, Rubin focuses on the period of armed conflict that began in 1978. The book analyzes the local, national, regional, and global shifts on social structure and the economy that perpetuated violent conflict while transforming its structure. Rubin’s own analysis is complemented by guest chapters by world experts on Afghanistan’s aid economy, drug industry, and the Taliban.
Britain’s Cold War

Britain’s Cold War

Barnett Nicholas

I.B. Tauris
2018
sidottu
The cultural history of the Cold War has been characterized as an explosion of fear and paranoia, based on very little actual intelligence. Both the US and Soviet administrations have since remarked how far off the mark their predictions of the other’s strengths and aims were. Yet so much of the cultural output of the period – in television, film, and literature – was concerned with the end of the world. Here, Nicholas Barnett looks at art and design, opinion polls, the Mass Observation movement, popular fiction and newspapers to show how exactly British people felt about the Soviet Union and the Cold War. In uncovering new primary source material, Barnett shows exactly how this seeped in to the art, literature, music and design of the period.
Redesigning Cities

Redesigning Cities

Barnett Jonathan

American Planning Association
2008

This book is recommended reading for planners preparing to take the AICP exam. Too often, no one is happy with new development: Public officials must choose among unappealing alternatives, developers are frustrated and the public is angry. But growing political support for urban design, developers' interest in community building and successful examples of redesigned cities all over the U.S. are hopeful signs of change. The author explains how design can reshape suburban growth patterns, revitalize older cities, and retrofit metropolitan areas where earlier development decisions went wrong. The author describes in detail specific techniques, materials, and technologies that should be known (but often aren't) to planners, public officials, concerned citizens, and others involved in development.
Put Your Worst Foot Forward: Twenty-Five Years of Growing the Helzberg Entrepreneurial Mentoring Program
It takes perseverance, passion, and the support of many to create a life-changing mentoring program that matches successful, seasoned entrepreneurs with eager-but-green business owners willing to share what keeps them up at night. But that's exactly what Barnett C. Helzberg, Jr., did a quarter century ago after selling his business to Warren Buffett. He launched, and then led, the Helzberg Entrepreneurial Mentoring Program (HEMP) in Kansas City. Today, hundreds of Kansas City businesses have benefited from his wisdom and HEMP's overall mission of fostering bold, spirited entrepreneurism. Not surprisingly, HEMP has also emerged as a national model for business mentoring. In Put Your Worst Foot Forward, Helzberg openly shares the challenges, successes, and failures that accompanied HEMP's growth. It's a dramatic story of ups and downs. It also provides lessons to other business communities in how they, too, can foster the magic of mentoring in their cities and towns.

Cuentos Bolivianos: Memories of a Peace Corps Physician in Bolivia

Cuentos Bolivianos: Memories of a Peace Corps Physician in Bolivia

Barnett L. Cline

As a newly-minted physician in 1963, the author was assigned to Bolivia by the U.S. Public Health Service. His job was to attend to the health needs of some 200 American Peace Corps volunteers scattered across Bolivia's vast and dramatic countryside, which ranged from towering Andean mountain peaks to the dense tropical rain forest of the Amazon basin. His Bolivia experiences and responsibilities contrasted sharply with his previous year as a medical intern at Charity Hospital, New Orleans. Cuentos Bolivianos captures memories of challenging adventures and experiences that included confronting an outbreak of deadly Typhus Fever, witnessing outlawed battles among indigenous warriors, helping a child with a severe deformity become normal, dealing with a serious tropical disease caused by an "impolite" bug, and participating in a near civil war confrontation when American hostages were seized by militant miners.

As Barnett (Barney) Cline, MD, MPH, PhD, professor emeritus of tropical medicine at Tulane University, writes in his new travelogue and memoir, it is impossible to remain unchanged after spending a year at sea. When he joined the crew of the Verona, the young ship's surgeon could never have imagined just how thoroughly this trip would change his life. Now, fifty years later, Cline recalls performing emergency surgery while on the Galapagos Islands, dodging the arrows of hostile natives in the Bay of Bengal, experiencing a mutiny mid-Pacific, and acquiring a cave house overlooking the Agean Sea on Santorini, Greece. Cline also shares medical moments that tested his education and gave him invaluable real-world experience in emergency and tropical medicine. Along with hilarious anecdotes and poignant recollections, Cline also includes information from his original ship's log, a selection of photographs he took on the voyage, and excerpts from letters he wrote and received. His work contains a treasure trove of information about some of the most remote and beautiful places around the world. Cline hopes his work may inspire you to seek out these locales for yourself.

Håndbog i CMM for konsulenter giver konsulenter, coaches og ledere dynamiske metoder til at hjælpe deres klienter og organisationer til at forstå og håndtere de kommunikationsmønstre, der har skabt de mere og mere komplekse spørgsmål og den gensidige afhængighed, som de (og deres klienter) møder på arbejdspladsen. Bogen slår bro mellem de teoretiske begreber i kommunikationsforståelsen bag Coordinated Management of Meaning (CMM) og de praktiske redskaber i CMM og stiller håndgribelige ressourcer og modeller til rådighed, som kan bruges i mange forskellige organisationsmæssige sammenhænge, fra konfliktløsning mellem enkeltpersoner til kulturforandring i en hel organisation. Bogen er et koncentrat af års forskning og refleksiv praksis med klienter i mange forskellige brancher.
