2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Climate change is acknowledged to be the major problem facing the human race, and the need to reduce our carbon footprint becomes ever more urgent as the scientific predictions of the effects of climate change become increasingly dire.

The Card: Collectors, Con Men, and the True Story of History`s Most Desired Baseball Card

2007 y.
Publisher: William Morrow
Description: Since its limited release just after the turn of the twentieth century, this American Tobacco cigarette card has beguiled and bedeviled collectors. First identified as valuable in the 1930s, when the whole notion of card collecting was still young, the T206 Wagner has remained the big score for collectors who have scoured card shows, flea markets, estate sales, and auctions for the portrait of baseball`s greatest shortstop. Only a few dozen T206 Wagners are known to still exist. Most, with their creases, stains, and dog-eared corners, look worn and tattered, like they`ve been around for almost a century. But one - `The Card` - appears to have defied the travails of time. Thanks to its sharp corners and its crisp portrait of Honus Wagner, `The Card` has become the most famous and desired baseball card in the world. Over the decades, as `The Card` has changed hands, its value has skyrocketed. It was initially sold for $25000 by a small card shop in a nondescript strip… [detailed...]

The Care of the Uninsured in America

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the US, health care coverage comes in the form of private health insurance such as employer-provided health plans, or public health insurance like Medicare, which covers everyone age 65 and older. But there is a gap between the public and private systems that leaves a huge segment of the US population, an estimated 47 million people, uninsured. Their lack of coverage affects whether they seek out necessary medical care, where they get their care, and ultimately how healthy they are—for example, the uninsured are much less likely to have preventive care, more likely to be hospitalized for avoidable health problems, and more likely to be diagnosed in the late stages of disease. This book examines the health consequences of being uninsured, and the problems of providing care for the uninsured. The authors look at theories of poverty, the roles of gender, age, and ethnicity, with attention paid to special populations such as migrants and refugees, and cultural competency development in… [detailed...]

Description: Despite promising research, Alzheimer`s disease cannot be arrested by medical intervention. So it has fallen to Alterra to monitor and care for his wife, Stella (a pseudonym, as is the author`s name), who was formerly an accomplished cellist and is now almost completely dependent on her husband.

Through a drug trial, he obtained medication that slowed his wife`s decline, he also followed up on the association`s recommendations of caregiver and patient support groups.
