Book Description
From the bestselling neurosurgeon and author of Do No Harm, comes Henry Marsh's And Finally, an unflinching and deeply personal exploration of death, life and neuroscience. As a retired brain surgeon, Henry Marsh thought he understood illness, but he was unprepared for the impact of his diagnosis of advanced cancer. And Finally explores what happens when someone who has spent a lifetime on the frontline of life and death finds himself contemplating what might be his own death sentence. As he navigates the bewildering transition from doctor to patient, he is haunted by past failures and projects yet to be completed, and frustrated by the inconveniences of illness and old age. But he is also more entranced than ever by the mysteries of science and the brain, the beauty of the natural world and his love for his family. Elegiac, candid, luminous and poignant, And Finally is ultimately not so much a book about death, but a book about life and what matters in the end.

Book Description
• Choice 1988 Outstanding Academic Book • Named one of the Best Business Books of 1988 by USA TodayA veteran reporter of American labor analyzes the spectacular and tragic collapse of the steel industry in the 1980s. John Hoerr's account of these events stretches from the industrywide barganing failures of 1982 to the crippling work stoppage at USX (U.S. Steel) in 1986-87. He interviewed scores of steelworkers, company managers at all levels, and union officials, and was present at many of the crucial events he describes. Using historical flashbacks to the origins of the steel industry, particularly in the Monongahela Valley of southwestern Pennsylvania, he shows how an obsolete and adversarial relationship between management and labor made it impossible for the industry to adapt to shattering changes in the global economy.

Book Description
STOP wasting your TIME, ENERGY and MONEY and START seeing TRUE RESULTS! Have you been "working out" for a while but are secretly disappointed with your results? Are you only a beginner, and would like to know what's the most effective way to get your dream body? What if you could create the body of your dreams, faster than you can imagine? The health and fitness industry is generating billions of dollars every year. Yes, we spend a lot of money in order to be sexy, attractive and healthy. But the sad news is that despite the goodwill of many people, and their strong determination, most of the people DO NOT get the results they wish for. And in this book, you will learn exactly why & how to avoid wasting your time! In AxioMuscle: Stop Wasting So Much Time at the Gym (And Finally Start Seeing Some Actual Results), author Michael Allen will show you the common mistakes most people make, teaching you how to work out properly and potentially cutting YEARS from your journey to the best shape you can have! Here's what you can expect: - Understand why people spend years in the gym but still fail to get results - Discover the solution and get your desired results with minimum effort & time - Save yourself from literally wasting time and even DAMAGING your health by learning how to work out properly - Get the full picture – workouts, sleep, diet and nutrition -- And much, much more! Michael Allen has worked full-time for many years in the fitness environment in the management of a gym. After years of observing different trainers and meeting different people, he concluded that most people basically waste their time at the gym by exercising according to methods that were largely ineffective and produced no results. Q: Why should I trust this book? A: Unlike other books, fitness programs or famous fitness gurus, no one will try to upsell you in this book and make you spend more money. The fitness industry makes money from you being unhappy with your body. This book will give you pure distilled concepts, and show you how to actually do it right. Q: I've already been working out for years. What can this book possibly offer me that I don't already know? A: If you're working out for years, and still unsatisfied with your results, you should do something different. Put your ego aside, test the ideas inside this book, and see for yourself. Most people can't admit they were wrong, therefore, most people would rather stick to a workout plan that doesn't work rather than admitting that they were wrong. Don't fool yourself – read it and test it out! Q: Can this book guarantee results? A: At the end of the day, you're the one who's eating, sleeping, and working out, so it's really up to you; "guarantee" is a pretty strong word when the ball is essentially in your court. But if you DO follow this book to the letter, you can safely bet on seeing far better results than you're likely to see otherwise. Let AxioMuscle show you the way to safe, effective gym results!
