Book excerpt: As a young child, Anthony Daniels dreamed of becoming a professional hockey player. He was accepted to Fordham University on a scholarship to play collegiate level hockey and study pre-law. Anthony had hockey scouts traveling from all over to watch him play. He was on track to becoming a top professional athlete, till one day a freak car accident ended his hockey career. After seven months of living in a full cast that covered 90% of his leg, Anthony developed an itch starting at his toes that quickly moved up his body. Following several tests, Anthony was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Anthony was told he would not survive past two years. Despite his prognosis, Anthony fought his cancer into remission twice within two years. Anthony was born an athlete, not competing was unacceptable for him. Anthony was introduced to boxing. Something he never thought he could do, especially while battling cancer. Not soon after, Anthony found himself at a boxing gym, training as a professional athlete again. When his cancer returned for the third and even fourth time, Anthony never gave up. Following high doses of chemotherapy and radiation treatment that would have anyone in bed for days, Anthony would train for several hours at the boxing gym. In 2018, while battling Hodgkin’s Lymphoma for the fifth time, Anthony was also diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. His credit of surviving cancer over seven times was based on his strength and endurance. There is no cure for Anthony, and he is ready to tell people the truth. In The Fight, Anthony’s message is clear; make the decision to never give up, choose to be strong, and find your purpose despite your circumstances.

Download or read book Is This a Private Fight or Can Anybody Join written by Assoc Prof Zachary C Shirkey and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-03-28 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some countries join interstate wars well after the war has begun, waiting months and often years, and thus changing their beliefs about the wisdom of entering a war. This volume examines why this might be so, focusing on unforeseen events in wars which cause neutral players to update their expectations about the trajectory of the war, therefore explaining why some wars spread while others do not. The author uses a combination of case studies and statistical analysis to test this theory: the Crimean War, the Franco-Prussian War, World War I, and a study of the spread of war since World War II. Designed for courses on and research into war and other international security issues, this book is a must read.

Book excerpt: The stakes for George Gordon Meade could not have been higher. After his stunning victory at Gettysburg in July of 1863, the Union commander spent the following months trying to bring the Army of Northern Virginia to battle once more and finish the job. The Confederate army, robbed of much of its offensive strength, nevertheless parried Meade’s moves time after time. Although the armies remained in constant contact during those long months of cavalry clashes, quick maneuvers, and sudden skirmishes, Lee continued to frustrate Meade’s efforts. Meanwhile, in Washington, D.C., Meade’s political enemies launched an all-out assault against his reputation and generalship. Even the very credibility of his victory at Gettysburg came under assault. Pressure mounted for the army commander to score a decisive victory and prove himself once more. Smaller victories, like those at Bristoe Station and Rappahannock Station, did little to quell the growing clamor—particularly because out west, in Chattanooga, another Union general, Ulysses S. Grant, was once again reversing Federal misfortunes. Meade needed a comparable victory in the east. And so, on Thanksgiving Day, 1863, the Army of the Potomac rumbled into motion once more, intent on trying again to bring about the great battle that would end the war. The Great Battle Never Fought: The Mine Run Campaign, November 26-December 2 1863 recounts the final chapter of the forgotten fall of 1863—when George Gordon Meade made one final attempt to save the Union and, in doing so, save himself.

Download or read book Fighting Chance written by Sarah Zabel and published by . This book was released on 2021-02 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A depressed patient rides his bicycle through the night, returning the next day without his depression. Researchers testing a new anti-tuberculosis drug note that their test subjects - though dying - are inexplicably happy. A PhD student investigating the source of noise in an imaging signal realizes he is seeing a high-level organization of brain function? Fighting Chance: How Unexpected Observations and Unintended Outcomes Shape the Science and Treatment of Depression takes the reader inside the circuitous search for the causes and cures for depression, the leading cause of ill health and disability world-wide. A surprisingly human tale of failed experiments and unanticipated victories, Fighting Chance reveals many of the people and experiences behind the modern approach to understanding and treating depression. The story begins with the serendipitous discovery of antidepressant medications, an unexpected advance that encouraged psychiatrists to reconceive major depression as an illness rather than an emotional state. The discoveries pile on, showing depression's relationship with stress, inflammation, circadian rhythms, and more. As scientists work to make sense of these observations and advance the biology of depression, they are also learning about vulnerability and resistance, and the process of recovery. From its underpinnings in cellular neuroscience to current research efforts, Fighting Chance takes the reader on a scientific journey inside depression. Incorporating the voices of researchers making fundamental discoveries about depression, physicians fighting to bring the most advanced treatment options to their patients, and ordinary people struggling for relief from their illness, Fighting Chance is a compelling tale of hope, resilience, and ingenuity.
