Or have you been diagnosed, but found that none of the treatments seems to make a difference? You may have Lyme disease and not even know it. Known as "the great imitator," Lyme disease and its associated co-infections can mimic the symptoms of and often be misdiagnosed as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, multiple sclerosis, and even depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and psychosis.In his landmark book, Why Can't I Get Better?: Solving the Mystery of Lyme & Chronic Disease, renowned internist and leading world expert Dr. Horowitz introduced his revolutionary plan for treating Lyme disease, and chronic diseases in general. Now, in this new handbook How Can I Get Better?, Dr. Horowitz updates his research and offers a direct, actionable step-by-step plan for implementing his 16 MSIDS Diagnostic Map.

  In many respects, Alzheimer’s is a brain form of Diabetes.Even in the earliest stages of the disease, the brain’s ability to metabolize sugar is reduced. Usually, insulin plays a significant role in helping the brain take up sugar from the blood. But, in Alzheimer’s, insulin is not very effective in the brain. Consequently, the brain cells practically starve to death.This book on Diabetes Mellitus aims at giving an insight into various aspects of this chronic disease and the risk factors that lead to it. The various ways it develops in the human body; the old and new approaches to treatment, both from a pharmacological and a non-pharmacological point of view. Ways to prevent and manage diabetes complications; how to improve the lives of diabetic patients who are faced with physical and psychological problems; statistical data from around the world focuses on the epidemiology and outlines the issue of the cost of Diabetes.Finally, this book links diabetes mellitus with Alzheimer’s disease as a different expression of Diabetes since it is closely associated with several critical neuronal factors implicated in dementia.

  Can the love reserved for family and friends be extended to a place? “Luminous essays” on nature and environmental stewardship (Booklist). 
   
  Named one of the Top Ten Northwest Books of the Year by the Oregonian 
   
  In this book, acclaimed author Kathleen Dean Moore, a winner of the Sigurd Olson Nature Writing Award for Holdfast, reflects on how deeply the environment is entrenched in the human spirit, despite the notion that nature and humans are somehow separate. Moore’s essays, deeply felt and often funny, make connections in what can appear to be a disconnected world. Written in parable form, her stories of family and friends—of wilderness excursions with her husband and children, camping trips with students, blowing up a dam, her daughter’s arrest for protesting the war in Iraq—affirm an impulse of caring that belies the abstract division of humans from nature, of the sacred from the mundane. Underlying these wonderfully engaging stories is the author’s belief in a new ecological ethic of care, one that expands the idea of community to include the environment, and embraces the land as family. 
   
  “Stands with the best tradition of nature writing.” —The Oregonian

  A look at the history of the commercial capturing of orcas in Washington’s Puget Sound, the whales taken, and the efforts to save them.  
   
  In November, 2005, Washington’s iconic killer whales, known as Southern Resident orcas, were placed on the endangered species list. It was a victory long overdue for a fragile population of fewer than one hundred whales. Author and certified marine naturalist Sandra Pollard traces the story and destinies of the many Southern Resident orcas captured for commercial purposes in or near the Puget Sound between 1964 and 1976. During this time, these highly intelligent members of the dolphin family lost nearly one-third of their population. Drawing on original archive material, this important volume outlines the history of orca captivity while also recounting the harrowing struggle—and ultimate triumph—for the Puget Sound orcas’ freedom. 
   
  “Making liberal use of interviews, correspondence and newspaper accounts, as well as less intensive use of legislative, governmental, and nonprofit records, Pollard constructs an easily digestible narrative for lay individuals curious about the hunting of Puget Sound’s Northern and Southern Resident killer whale groups between 1965 and 1976. Puget Sound Whales for Sale significantly succeeds the former (Blackfish) in breadth and depth.” —Pacific Northwest Quarterly
