  One man’s journey from doctor to patient to healer. Second Lives is a first-hand account of neurologist Ralph Lilly’s recovery from a traumatic brain injury and how the lessons of his recovery enabled him to help others with their own recoveries.  
  “Discharged from a hospital just means you’re not dead.” These words of Ralph B. Lilly, M.D., describe his early struggle to recover from a traumatic brain injury. Lilly was a forty-four-year-old practicing neurologist sitting on his motorcycle at a red light when a drunk driver rear-ended him in 1980. In the ICU, after regaining consciousness and being told what happened, he asked, “What’s a hospital? What’s a motorcycle?” This tragic experience transformed his life and his approach to his neurology practice: doctors treat those with brain injury; but loved ones heal them. 
  Second Lives: The Journey of Brain Injury Survivors and Their Healers is written by Dr. Lilly and Diane F. Kramer. After his death in 2021, Kramer completed the book with the assistance of Lilly’s wife, Joyce Stamp Lilly. This memoir weaves together Ralph Lilly’s experience with a collage of stories about his patients and their healers. After his recovery, Lilly retrained in the emerging field of behavioral neurology, which focuses on behavior, memory, cognition, and emotion after brain injury.

  In today’s world, the majority of asset-intensive organizations are still stuck with complex, rigid, and sometimes antiquated technology solutions that simply cannot step up to evolving challenges and an ever-changing market. Why do the world’s most important industries—ones that billions of people rely on for essential human needs—operate with approaches that run the risk of making them extremely inefficient and brittle? 
  What if it didn’t have to be that way? 
  Imagine a world where companies can move successfully into the future, where these brittle solutions are replaced with a flexible, simple approach that also delivers enterprise-grade capabilities. This book introduces asset operations management (AOM), an operating principle founded on the belief that asset-intensive organizations have much to gain by adopting new approaches to data, collaboration, and communication—all supported by modern, consumer-grade technology experiences. 
  The best-of-breed organizations in asset-intensive industries have been changing the way their businesses run for years, and they’re reaping the rewards. The rest of the pack is struggling to keep up in the new paradigm—one where asset operations is central to operating efficiency and organizational resilience.

  Once an angler masters a graphite rod, his interests often move on to the original fly rod, pliant bamboo. Until the mid-twentieth century, nearly all fly rods were bamboo. By the 1970s, fiberglass and graphite changed the world of fly-fishing. But more and more anglers are seeing bamboo rods in retail outlets, and want to give them a try. With this book, John Gierach, one of the nation's top fly-fishing writers, provides a philosophical guide to the angler who seeks this new "old" method. Gierach discusses how bamboo rods are built, how they differ from graphite rods, and how using one will change a fly fisher's approach to the sport. Fishing bamboo might be the pinnacle of fly-casting skill, and this book will help take you there.

  A diagnosis of bipolar disorder can be scary... but it also opens up an opportunity for growth and stability. Ready to find the answers? 
  Around one in every 100 people is diagnosed with bipolar disorder at some point in their lives… but if you’re one of them, it probably feels more isolating than that. 
  Despite the rising awareness of mental health challenges, it’s a condition still shrouded in misunderstanding, and while you’re caught up in the extreme highs and lows it presents, it’s difficult to understand it yourself, let alone help anyone else to understand it. 
  A diagnosis can bring a sense of relief—an explanation to help you finally make sense of what’s been happening with you… but it can also be scary. 
  Mariah Carey, who’s spoken outwardly about her experience with bipolar disorder, said that she “didn’t want to believe” it when she was given her diagnosis… and perhaps that’s a feeling you can relate to. 
  It can make you feel terribly alone, especially when you don’t understand all the nuances of bipolar disorder or how to manage it well… But this is where your diagnosis is a blessing. 
  Now that you know you have it, you can dive beneath the hood and implement techniques that you didn’t know to try before now. 
  But when there’s so much to know, where do you start? 
  Right here. 
  Written by an author whose diagnosis marked a positive turning point, this empathetic and holistic approach to understanding and managing bipolar disorder will show you exactly what you need to know. 
  Whether you’re living with the condition yourself or you’re caring for someone who is, your journey toward understanding starts here. 
  You might think a diagnosis is the end of your journey… It all makes sense now, after all. 
  But this is just the start of your path—because with a deeper understanding and a wealth of strategies you can turn to at any time, you can completely transform your daily experience.
