It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 7 - 15 working days The youngest of nine children, Michael Downing was three when his father died, suddenly and inexplicably. No autopsy was performed. The family diagnosis was God's will. As a boy, Downing rigorously trained as a spiritual athlete, preparing to vault into heaven. But eventually he escaped the religious dogma and the family arena--until one of his brothers died in 2003, suddenly and inexplicably. No autopsy was performed. Alarmed, Downing pursued a diagnosis. Drawn into a world of researchers, clinicians, and manufacturers with their own arcane ethics and faith, Downing discovered he had inherited a mutant protein from his father, and that the first symptom would be his sudden death. To save his life, a defibrillator was hardwired to his heart. Within weeks, he needed emergency surgery to remove the device and the life-threatening infection he got with it. Two months later, he was reimplanted--only to read in his morning newspaper that the new wires anchored to his heart were prone to failure. His device might be powerless, or it might deliver a series of unwarranted, possibly fatal, shocks. From a bedeviled boyhood in the Berkshires to a grim comedy of errors in one of Boston's best hospitals, Life with Sudden Death is a tale of medical misadventure. Features Summary After the sudden death of his father and later his brother, Downing discovers he had inherited a mutant protein, and that the first symptom would be his sudden death...

In Daniel Vilmure's powerful first novel,two brothers take off on a rampage through a seedy Florida port town on a hot August night. The older one is illiterate; one moment he is hypertense, ready to snap, the next, he is James Dean cool. His kid brother - the one with the sense - goes along to save him but in the end is no match for such hell-bent momentum. "A gratifying first novel. The talent of the author, who was born in Tampa in 1965, shines in the book's compelling imagery, irony and framing device. His vivid, terse language aptly embodies the hard-driving, violent drama and makes us feel we are running through the night with these brothers driven by a painful loss of innocence, and fate" New York Times Book Review. Soft cover, fairly good condition, although the cover is bent in places. 225 pages, all intact.

Architects of Poverty: Why African Capitalism Needs Changing (2009) set out to explain what role African elites played in creating and promoting their fellow Africans¿ misery. Advocates for Change: How to Overcome Africa¿s Challenges (2011) set out to show that there were short-term to medium-term solutions to many of Africa¿s and South Africa¿s problems, from agriculture to healthcare, if only the powers that be would take note. And now, more than 20 years after the advent of democracy, we have A Manifesto For Social Change: How To Save South Africa, the conclusion in the ¿trilogy¿. This book started its life as Gridlocked, but through the process of research undertaken by Moeletsi and Nobantu it has evolved into a different project, a manifesto that identifies some of South Africa¿s key problems and what is required to change the country¿s downward trajectory.

This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 4 - 8 working days Bram Fischer was born into an aristocratic Afrikaans family but became one of South Africa's leading revolutionaries. Regarded in his youth as having a brilliant career ahead of him, he rebelled not only against the apartheid system but also against his own Afrikaner people. As a defence lawyer, Fischer managed to save Mandela from the death penalty demanded by state prosecutors for his sabotage activities. He played a remarkable role in the underground movement aimed at overthrowing the government. To the very last, even when all the other conspirators had been arrested or fled into exile, Fischer held out, sought for months by the security police. His single-handed efforts ended inevitably in failure. Sentenced to life imprisonment, he was cast into solitary confinement, the government continued to regard him as a potentially dangerous influence even when he was dying of cancer, refusing all appeals to release him until the last few weeks of his life. Set against the dramatic background of two massive historical struggles, one by the Afrikaans, the other by the Africans, Fischer's life contains all the ingredients of a political thriller.

With the help of many soldiers' letters and diaries, Wiley explains who these men were and why they fought, how they reacted to combat and the strain of prolonged conflict, and what they thought about the land and the people of Dixie. This fascinating social history reveals that while the Yanks and the Rebs fought for very different causes, the men on both sides were very much the same. "This wonderfully interesting book is the finest memorial the Union soldier is ever likely to have....
