Lakes - Their Birth Life and Death

John Richard Saylor

Lakes might be the most misunderstood bodies of water on earth. And while they may seem commonplace, without lakes our world would never be the same. In this revealing look at these lifegiving treasures, John Richard Saylor shows us just how deep our connection to still waters run. 
 
  
  
Lakes is an illuminating tour through the most fascinating lakes around the world. Whether it's Lake Vostok, located more than two miles beneath the surface of Antarctica, whose water was last exposed to the atmosphere perhaps a million years ago; Lake Baikal in southern Siberia, the world's deepest and oldest lake formed by a rift in the earth's crust; or Lake Nyos, the so-called Killer Lake that exploded in 1986, resulting in hundreds of deaths, Saylor reveals to us the wonder that exists in lakes found throughout the world. Along the way we learn all the many forms that lakes take—how they come to be and how they feed and support ecosystems—and what happens when lakes vanish.

Strange Sightings on the Moon...

Martin K. Ettington

Most of my books on Aliens and UFOs are about evidence of them existing on Earth.However, there are also many unusual sightings in space which is the subject of this book. These sightings cover the following locations:UFOs flying around the International Space StationBases and UFOs on the MoonStrange sightings on Mars taken by our Martian rovers.In deep space elsewhere in the Solar SystemThese pictures may or may not be real alien life or UFO technologies, but they are fascinating none the less.Some of the sightings like the face in Cydonia are just a result of our natural abilities to see living forms in many types of pictures. But some may turn out to be real phenomena.Certainly, some of these sightings can’t be anything other than real UFOs.If you want to learn about strange sightings in the Solar System outside of Earth, then this book is for you.

Where is My F***N Leg?!

David Macintosh

Scalpels, Egos, Libidos. Is anybody in this hospital under control? 
In surgery, every cut changes a body forever. But what do you really know about the person holding the knife? Are their bodies betraying them and their desires distracting them? Does doubt haunt them and pride destroy them? 
This is the story of the surgeons who stole a leg and saved a life. They are  the ones falling apart in the tearoom afterwards. The aging consultant who can feel his hands betraying him. The single mother questioning every 
cut she's ever made. The brilliant surgeon whose ego writes cheques 
his marriage can't cash. The trainee left holding the blame when a surgeon decides his reputation matters more than the truth. Two women torn apart by a lascivious outsider. And a woman who holds them all together. 
Set in tropical North Queensland; Where is My F***N Leg?! is about the tribes we belong to in operating theatres, in marriages, in the quiet hours when there's nothing left to hide behind. 
It's funny. It's searing. It's painful. 
A blisteringly honest account of loss, lust, trust, betrayal and the uncomfortable truth that the people cutting you open are just as breakable as the rest of us.
