    Physicians lead. It’s an integral part of what they do. They lead patients, they lead healthcare teams, they lead colleagues, departments, and organizations. But most doctors receive very little training in leadership.Leon E. Moores, MD, DSc, FACS is a neurosurgeon and seasoned healthcare leader who literally “wrote the book” on physician leadership for the U.S. Army. A West Point graduate, Moores became an officer and a surgeon in the Army and recognized how the lack of formal leadership training for doctors impacts physician effectiveness, team performance, and patient outcomes. Along with a team of highly accomplished colleagues, he created the physician leadership development program that has been widely referenced by the U.S. military. Moores now shares that leadership wisdom, and the lessons he has learned through decades of healthcare organization leadership, with physicians everywhere and with all readers passionate about improving healthcare.

    Sally Coulthard tells the fascinating – and sometimes shocking – story of the domestic chicken.The chicken can fly only a few metres but – somehow – this unlikely evolutionary descendant of Tyrannosaurus Rex has conquered the world. Earth is now home to more than twenty billion chickens, at least ten times more than any other bird. For every human on the planet, there are three chickens. In Fowl Play, Sally Coulthard charts the chicken's fascinating journey from dinosaur to domestication to exploitation, exploring every aspect of the history of Gallus gallus domesticus: its importance to the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans as food source and fighting bird; its symbolic roles in religion and folklore and metaphorical function in the language we use; its homely place as egg-providing companion on farms, smallholdings and in suburban back gardens; and its darker modern-day fate as battery bird raised to satisfy society's unquenchable addiction to wings and nuggets. Of all animals, chickens perhaps best represent the contradictory way we humans treat other species; both beloved pet and cheap commodity, symbol of a sustainable good life and brutalised object of factory farming. The chicken is also a bird we feel deeply familiar with and yet know very little about. As informative as it is entertaining, Fowl Play tells a remarkable tale of evolutionary change, epic global travel and ruthless exploitation – as well as of companionship, ingenuity and the folly of human nature.

    Man has dreamed of travelling to the stars for as long as he knew that those points of light in the sky were stars like the Sun. Now, in the 21st century there are actual studies and plans to send interstellar space probes to the nearest stars. Probably to Alpha Centauri which is only 4.3 light years away. What is the history of plans to get to the nearest star? And what are the plans today to make these ideas a reality? In this book we explore the history of the scientific effort to send “Star Probes” and how they will be built. Plans for building interstellar probes are discussed and the technology we need to build to get there is reviewed too. How will we be able to send them at a significant fraction of the speed of light to get there in many persons lifetimes? And what technologies will we need to develop to make this happen? This is the start of an amazing true life adventure.
