Sinopse

This book is intended chiefly as a work of reference. As most Zoological Gardens are much alike, it is impossible to avoid a certain monotony in describing them. And yet each Garden has generally its own distinctive features. These I had the opportunity of observing in a tour which I made early this year, and I have tried to recount them in the following pages, after first giving the main facts connected with the foundation and development of the respective Gardens. In my descriptive walks round I invariably turned to the left on entering, and made my way round the Gardens back to the entrance again.

    Call of the Kingfisher is the enchanting debut from composer and wildlife recordist Nick Penny. This love letter to a short stretch of Northamptonshire's River Nene celebrates all the wild things that live there, especially the kingfishers. Nick has walked beside the river at Oundle for four decades. But for a whole year he gave the waterway all the time it asked for. The more attention he gave it, the more he saw the kingfishers and heard their high whistling calls. Set in a lovely but little-known part of England, Call of the Kingfisher relates a year by the river, the author's experiences there and the different people he meets. Other strands are woven around the elusive feathered protagonist: explorations of local history and landscape, from Roman and Bronze Age sites to watermills and centuries-old stone churches; visits at different times and to different places in the valley; homages to naturalists who lived nearby; forest dawns and dusks listening to the precious song of nightingales. But the background tapestry is the sights and sounds, and greens and browns, of the riverbank, shot through with the blue and orange threads of a kingfisher's glowing feathers.As a composer and wildlife recordist, Nick has a deep interest in sounds in the natural environment. He uses the local landscape and wildlife sounds as inspiration, and brings fresh insights into the sounds of the countryside. The book includes access to a number of high-quality birdsong recordings made alongside the River Nene - audio soundbites of nature's riches, from kingfishers and nightingales to owls and cuckoos. This is a book about the things that can be seen and heard when we approach nature with patience and curiosity. It celebrates people who have used that focus to help preserve wildlife and pass on their knowledge to future generations. Above all, Call of the Kingfisher serves as a call to appreciate what we've got, wherever we are, and to use our ears as much as our eyes when we experience the natural world.

    Medical oncology is a specialized branch of medicine focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of cancer. It involves the use of systemic therapies, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and hormone therapy, to treat various types of cancer. The field is integral to the multidisciplinary approach to cancer care, working in collaboration with surgeons, radiation oncologists, pathologists, and other healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive patient management. Medical oncologists play a central role in coordinating cancer treatment plans and monitoring patients throughout their treatment journey. 
    Cancer is a complex disease characterized by uncontrolled cell growth and spread to other parts of the body. Over the years, advances in the understanding of cancer biology, genetics, and molecular mechanisms have greatly enhanced the ability of medical oncologists to tailor treatments to individual patients. This personalized approach has significantly improved treatment outcomes, making cancer a more manageable condition for many patients. 
    The scope of medical oncology encompasses a wide range of cancers, including solid tumors, hematologic cancers, and rare malignancies. It involves not only treating cancer but also addressing the psychological, social, and physical challenges that come with a cancer diagnosis. The goal of medical oncology is not only to eradicate cancer cells but also to preserve and improve the patient’s quality of life during and after treatment.
