Summary

Biodegradable Implant Engineering explores the innovative realm of temporary medical implants designed to dissolve within the body, potentially eliminating the need for follow-up surgeries. This book investigates the materials science behind biocompatible polymers like polyesters and hydrogels, crucial for crafting implants with controlled degradation rates. A key insight involves understanding how the body responds to these degrading materials, including tissue integration and immune reactions. The book uniquely synthesizes diverse knowledge, offering a framework for designing implants with predictable degradation, controlled drug delivery systems, and optimal biocompatibility.

 
It progresses from foundational principles of biodegradable materials, through analysis of various polymers and their in-vivo performance, to the integration of drug delivery systems and real-world case studies, providing a comprehensive view of implant engineering. This approach ensures readers gain an understanding of how material selection, processing techniques, and implant geometry influence an implant's lifespan and therapeutic efficacy.

    A National Bestseller 
    “A modern classic, one we very much need right now.” –George Saunders 
    From the acclaimed author of The Shepherd’s Life, a magical work of nonfiction in which James Rebanks reflects on a life-changing summer spent on a remote island off the coast of Norway, where his only companion was an old woman who practiced the ancient tradition of collecting eiderdown from birds that nest on this remarkable landscape each year 
    We are all in need of lights to follow. 
    One afternoon many years ago, James Rebanks met an old woman on a remote Norwegian island. She lived and worked alone on a tiny rocky outcrop, caring for wild Eider ducks and gathering their down. Hers was a centuries-old trade that had once made men and women rich but had long been in decline. Still, somehow, she seemed to be hanging on. 
    Back at home, Rebanks couldn’t stop thinking about the woman on the rocks. She was fierce and otherworldly—and yet strangely familiar. Years passed. Then, one day, he wrote her a letter, asking if he could return. Bring work clothes, she replied, and good boots, and come quickly: her health was failing. And so he travelled to the edge of the Arctic to witness her last season on the island. 
    This is the story of that season. It is the story of a unique and ancient landscape, and of the woman who brought it back to life. It traces the pattern of her work from the rough, isolated toil of bitter winter to the elation of the endless summer light, when the birds leave behind their precious down for gathering, like feathered gold. 
    Slowly, Rebanks begins to understand that this woman and her world are not what he had previously thought. What began as a journey of escape becomes an extraordinary lesson in self-knowledge and forgiveness.

    In this deeply personal and profoundly hopeful memoir, Dr. Clarisse Djeumo Djukom invites listeners into her intimate journey of living with bipolar disorder as a Christian woman. With raw honesty and unwavering faith, she chronicles her path from the subtle early warning signs—dismissed as stress or fatigue—through the devastating extremes of manic highs and crushing depressive lows, to finding stability, purpose, and peace. 
    More than just a story of survival, this book is a comprehensive guide for anyone touched by bipolar disorder. Dr. Djukom weaves together her lived experiences with practical strategies for managing the illness, including navigating medication, therapy, and lifestyle changes. She tackles often-overlooked challenges like the financial burden of treatment, the importance of building a strong support network, and the courage required to break through stigma and shame. 
    At the heart of this narrative is the author's Christian faith—an anchor that provides strength, hope, and meaning amidst suffering. Through prayer, scripture, and spiritual reflection, she demonstrates how faith can be integrated with medical treatment to create a holistic approach to healing. 
    Whether you're living with bipolar disorder, supporting a loved one, or seeking to understand this complex condition, this audiobook offers validation, practical wisdom, and a powerful message: recovery is possible, small victories matter, and you are not alone. Dr. Djukom's journey reminds us that our struggles do not define us—they can become the foundation for resilience, self-compassion, and a life filled with purpose.

    In Soul Friend and Other Love Notes to the Natural World, author and naturalist Sheila McEntee artfully conveys her deep love of the natural world and the solace she finds there. In twelve brief personal essays, spanning 20 years, she explores the flora and fauna in Appalachian forests, on the shores of the Potomac River, and, especially, in her own backyard, as she navigates the joys and trials of an introspective life: love, loss, death, loneliness, intimacy, uncertainty, and, ultimately, self-knowing and self-acceptance. In this small volume, we learn that nature teaches resiliency, and to be present to it is to find joy. Indeed, there is no heartache or struggle for which it does not offer comfort.

    Drown out intrusive noises and immerse yourself in the wilderness with sounds of the Scarlet Tanager. 
    This audiobook features continuous background field recordings of natural bird sounds combined with ambient forest atmosphere. It is designed to support rest, productive focus, deep relaxation, and quiet meditation. 
    The soundscape is non-intrusive, steady, and intended for long-duration listening to help maintain a consistent and peaceful mental state. Ideal for use during work, studying, mindfulness practice, stress relief, or as a calming background environment throughout the day or night. 
    The Scarlet Tanager (Piranga olivacea) is a migratory songbird commonly found throughout the deciduous and mixed forests of eastern North America during the breeding season, wintering in northwestern South America. It is known for its distinctive vocalizations, which include short, robin-like phrases, melodic whistles, and a variety of clear, burry song patterns heard high in the forest canopy. 
    In natural environments, Scarlet Tanagers are most often heard during the early morning and throughout the daytime, especially in mature woodlands and dense forest habitats. Their songs contribute to the rich acoustic atmosphere of eastern forests, often providing a subtle but characteristic soundtrack to spring and summer mornings. 
    Visually, the Scarlet Tanager is recognized for its striking seasonal plumage. Breeding males display brilliant scarlet-red feathers contrasted by jet-black wings and tail, making them one of the most visually distinctive birds in North American forests. Females and non-breeding males feature olive-yellow and greenish plumage that blends naturally into leafy woodland environments.
