Описание: El lanzador de relevo mas exitoso de todos los tiempos comparte su extraordinaria historia de supervivencia, amor y beisbol. Mariano Rivera, el hombre que intimido a miles de bateadores con tan solo abrir la puerta del "bullpen," comenzo su increible viaje como el hijo de un pobre pescador panameno. Cuando primeramente los Yankees lo reclutaron, ni siquiera poseia su propio guante. El penso que podria ser un buen mecanico. Cuando lo descubrieron, nunca antes habia volado en un avion, nunca habia oido hablar de Babe Ruth, no hablaba ingles, ni tampoco se imaginaba como era Tampa, la ciudad hacia donde iba para comenzar una carrera que lo convertiria en uno de los mas iconicos del beisbol. Lo que si sabia: que amaba a su familia y su entonces novia, Clara; que podia confiar en el Senor para guiarlo; y que podia lanzar una pelota exactamente donde el queria, todo el tiempo. Con sorprendente candor, Rivera relata la historia de los campeonatos, los jefes (incluyendo El Jefe), las rivalidades y las luchas de ser pelotero latino en los Estados Unidos, y como conservar los valores cristianos dentro del atletismo profesional. El trece veces pelatoro del Juego de Estrellas habla de su impulso de ganar; los secretos detras de su legendaria compostura; la historia de como descubrio su recta cortada; lo nunca antes contado sobre el lanzamiento de la novena entrada del septimo juego de la Serie Mundial de 2001; y por que el momento mas bajo de su carrera se convirtio en una de sus mas grandes bendiciones. Cuando Rivera se retiro, todo el mundo lo vio y aplaudio. En "El cerrador," " llegamos a una aun mayor apreciacion de una leyenda construida desde cero. "
Описание: No One Left Behind: How Nurse Practitioners Are Changing The Canadian Health Care System, is a collection of stories from NPs across Canada, sharing their most memorable experiences with patients, which clearly illustrate the critical role they play throughout the health care system.
Each story is compelling and unique in its own way; true-life accounts which will take you on an emotional journey, however, one that defines a genuine passion that exists for their work.
The role of an NP has evolved significantly over the years, and is in different stages of progress throughout the country. While there are still legislative and regulatory barriers which prevent Nurse Practitioners from performing their work to the full scope of their practice, their focus on patient care remains the very foundation of their profession. This book shares a variety of stories from NPs across all sectors of the health care system to provide detailed accounts of what they do. In their line of work, they are often reminded of our shared vulnerability as a society, and how that susceptibility connects us. NPs work with patients in all settings in their quest to achieve health-whatever that may mean to the patient.
No One Left Behind is a moving tribute to NPs who have devoted their lives to caring for others, revisiting some of the most poignant experiences of their careers....

Описание: Undoing Ties claims to offer an answer to the question of what happens when the ties between traditional political institutions and citizens are being undone. The basic aim of the book is to offer an introductory and accessible overview of those paradigms and theories that are specifically concerned with the irreducible plurality of life forms and seek to understand how this challenge should be faced. The authors adopt an interdisciplinary approach to foreground how scholars in different areas (such as political philosophy, jurisprudence, sociology and anthropology) deal with one of the key characterizing elements of today's political scenario, that is to say, the reviviscence of sub-state and supra-state groups as crucial political actors vis- -visthe state.

Описание: This ravishing book opens a window into the lives, designs, and passions of Mariano Fortuny and William Morris, two remarkable artists who themselves are passions of the writer A. S. Byatt. Born a generation apart in the mid-1800s, Fortuny and Morris were seeming opposites: Fortuny a Spanish aristocrat thrilled by the sun-baked cultures of Crete and Knossos; Morris a member of the British bourgeoisie, enthralled by Nordic myths. Through their revolutionary inventions and textiles, both men inspired a new variety of art that is as striking today as when it was first conceived. In this elegant meditation, Byatt traces their genius right to the source. Fortuny s Palazzo Pesaro Orfei in Venice is a warren of dark spaces imbued with the rich hues of Asia. In his attic workshop, Fortuny created intricate designs from glowing silks and velvets; in the palazzo he found happiness in a glittering cavern alongside the French model who became his wife and collaborator, including on the famous Delphos dress a flowing, pleated gown that evoked the era of classical Greece. Morris s Red House outside London, with its Gothic turrets and secret gardens, helped inspire his stunning floral and geometric patterns; it likewise represented a coming together of life and art. But it was a sweet simple old place called Kelmscott Manor in the countryside that he loved best even when it became the setting for his wife s love affair with the artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Generously illustrated with the artists beautiful designs pomegranates and acanthus, peacock and vine among other aspects of their worlds, this marvel-filled book brings the visions and ideas of Fortuny and Morris to vivid life."
