  In Modernizing Medicare, editors Robert Emmet Moffit and Marie Fishpaw bring together a rare combination of leading scholars and policy practitioners to outline a vision for Medicare reform and provide solutions for the millions of seniors whose health care depends on it. Contributors include a  
  former Medicare trustee, a former Medicare administrator, and a former director of the Congressional Budget Office. 
   
  Detailing Medicare’s biggest problems, this team of top policy experts offers solutions based on personal freedom of choice, transparency of price and performance, and market competition among health plans and providers that will secure patients more affordable, more accountable, and higher quality medical  
  care. They also address Medicare’s reform needs and analyze the promising performance of the Medicare Advantage program. Contributors outline Medicare’s major financial problems and the best solutions for Medicare patients and taxpayers alike. While Medicare’s accelerating spending is generating higher  
  deficits and debt, standard cost-control strategies—such as payment reductions and price controls—jeopardize patients’ access to high-quality care.

  For the average Joe, fishing may be considered a pretty tedious affair… 
  Long hours spent on the bank by some muddy pond in the middle of nowhere, hunched over a rod, waiting for a bite. 
  Early starts, foul weather, wriggling worms and writhing maggots are enough to turn most people off straight away. But for the staunch angler, this sweeping assumption couldn’t be further from the truth… 
  From wild conspiracies and wacky theories to absurd angling drama, the sport of fishing is more bizarre than most could ever imagine. From the ridiculous ghost story of a man-eating catfish to glorious angling embellishments, The Secret Lives Of Anglers reveals the hidden truths of this puzzling pastime.

  It's a prime ingredient in countless substances from cereal to soup, from cola to coffee. Consumed at the rate of one hundred pounds for every American every year, it's as addictive as nicotine -- and as poisonous. It's sugar. And "Sugar Blues", inspired by the crusade of Hollywood legend Gloria Swanson, is the classic, bestselling expose that unmasks our generation's greatest medical killer and shows how a revitalizing, sugar-free diet can not only change lives, but quite possibly save them.

  'You could call him Paddington,' Adam said, casually, 'Don't name him! I said, as if this was self-evident. Names turn situations into responsibilities. 
  When Mirelle Radley set off for Peru with her cousin Adam, hoping to heal her broken heart, she didn't expect to meet someone who would change the course of her life forever. 
  Meet Paddy, the Peruvian street dog who met Mirelle one night when he wandered into her eco-cabin – and refused to leave. He returned the next day, and the day after. And before long, he was following her through towns and markets and trekking alongside her through the mountains, never leaving her side. 
  He was free to go, yet he never strayed more than a few steps away. 
  As Mirelle's trip came to an end, heartbreak struck. She faced an impossible goodbye. 
  How could she leave behind Paddy – the dog, she had fallen in love with and named – who had so clearly chosen her to be his human? 
  What follows is a heart-stopping, globe-spanning adventure that reminds us that sometimes, love finds us in the most unexpected ways. 
  Part autobiography, part memoirs, this non-fiction account turns travel across South America into an intimate biography of an extraordinary bond between humans and animals. With nature as its backdrop and dogs at its heart, it’s a best, latest up-coming read to pre-order for every pets lover.
