This book provides a practical approach for those considering occupational therapy as a career.  Dispelling the myths about occupational therapy, Chris McKenna and Cath Wright explore current practice and introduce the reader to a range of innovations in modern occupational therapy training and practice.

    Blockchain is the new breed of innovation that has already begun to reinvent trade, social and political relationships, and any other form of exchange of value. For once, it's not just a transition, it's a strong trend already in practice. As of this writing, over 40 top financial organizations and many different companies across industries have begun investigating blockchain to minimize transaction costs, speed up transaction time, reduce fraud risk, and remove intermediary or broker services. Some are trying to re-imagine legacy systems and services to take them to a new level and develop new types of service offerings as well. 
    In the public conversation and in the media, the blockchain has received a lot of attention. Many fans contend that the blockchain has been the best innovation since the Internet emerged. Therefore, a lot of books and articles about the blockchain have been written over the past few years. 
    The book was written because it involves a conceptual understanding of the blockchain's technological foundations to grasp actual blockchain implementations, analyze business cases of blockchain start-ups, or follow the analysis of its future economic impacts. It will be impossible to assess the value or potential impact of the blockchain in general or to understand the added value of specific blockchain applications without an appreciation of the underlying concepts. The book focuses on the blockchain's underlying concepts as a lack of understanding of a new technology will contribute to the excitement being carried away and then frustrated due to unrealistic unreasonable expectations.

    Award-winning and beloved author Helen Humphreys discovers her local herbarium and realizes we need to look for beauty in whatever nature we have left — no matter how diminished
    		 
    Award-winning poet and novelist Helen Humphreys returns to her series of nature meditations in this gorgeously written and illustrated book that takes a deep look at the forgotten world of herbariums and the people who amassed collections of plant specimens in the 19th and 20th centuries. From Emily Dickinson’s and Henry David Thoreau’s collections to the amateur naturalists whose names are forgotten but whose collections still grace our world, herbariums are the records of the often-humble plants that are still with us and those that are lost. Over the course of a year, Humphreys considers life and loss and the importance of finding solace in nature.
    		 
    Illustrated throughout with images of herbarium specimens, Humphreys’s own botanical drawings, and archival photographs, this will be the perfect gift for Humphreys’s many fans, nature enthusiasts, and for all who loved Birds Art Life.

    This is a combo of 3 books in 1. Enjoy! The titles concern the following topics: 
    Book 1 - With the world watching the news each day about the infamous COVID-19 Virus, a version of what is more broadly classified as a "Coronavirus," like SARS, it's hard to ignore the facts and the opinions as many economies are being put on hold, stocks are plummeting, businesses are applying for loans, and everyone is encouraged to stay at home. 
    Book 2 - Being stuck at home can be annoying. I watched as my in-laws were eager to hug our children but didn't, just because they wanted to abide by the rules the president of the United States and many other international leaders have set. Some people say they lost their jobs. Others report being sick of one another, not of the virus. Fortunately, I live in a nice-enough home, but I can't imagine how hard it is for some people who live in a small apartment, like the ones I've seen in Tokyo. 
    This book shows you some things you should or should not do during the time of being quarantined because of an epidemic or pandemic. 
    Book 3 - We don't know everything about the Coronavirus yet (or COVID-19, which is the more accurate name). Many reports have suggested that it may have originated from the bat soup the inhabitants of the Chinese Wuhan province drink or drank on a regular basis, since bats, like rats, are often carriers of numerous diseases. Others refer to some kind of conspiracy with a testing center and selling animals on the market there. Whatever the origin, there are certain things that we know about the health side and certain things that we don't. Stay tuned, because we will dive into the many controversial and informational sources I have acquired right now.
