Download or read book Calling Time written by Judith Hereford and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Murder, neglect, excessive regulation. What’s the difference? Written in two parts, Calling Time brings to life the significance of elderly care with particular focus on the poor treatment of those in residental care. Calling Time follows the fortunes of two very different characters, Kristine and Angela, both of whom are carers in a residental home in 1950s’ New Zealand. In Part I, Angela takes it upon herself to put 4 patients out of their misery. Written from the perspectives of the residents, each account provides an illuminating insight into how little care each receive. Angela soon finds that questions are being raised about the care she provides and when questions are asked about a 5th patient in her care, she is scared into resigning. Set 46 years later, Part II explores how Angela and Kristine cope as they grow old. Angela has become a virtual recluse, living in remote hill country with only her dog for company. Having moved to the UK, Kristine, a model of caring when she lived in New Zealand, finds that her elderly mother-in-law tries her patience, especially when she is living with them. After putting her in a home, the regulations become such a burden that the home is at risk of going out of business. Calling Time highlights the inadequacy of residential care that befalls many elderly residents. It also asks whether it’s better to be put out of your misery before being forced to move to a home with the possibility of ill treatment. This book is written from several different perspectives within the care community – the matron, the carers, the residents – and will appeal to readers who have worked in a caring profession and as well as those interested in care for the elderly.

Download or read book War at the Top of the World written by Eric S. Margolis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-27 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What will the post-Taliban government of Afghanistan look like? How will the war in Afghanistan affect the already unstable politics of Central Asia? In War at the Top of the World, veteran foreign correspondent Eric Margolis presents a revelatory history of the complicated and volatile conflicts that have entangled Afghanistan, Pakistan, the United States, the Soviet Union, and many others. By 1999, Pakistan had proven they have medium-range nuclear weapons, and now the threat that their government could be taken over by a radical Islamic fundamentalist faction is stronger than ever. In fact, Osama bin Laden has already claimed to have a nuclear weapon. How could this have happened? Margolis plays witness to the escalating conflicts of the past decade, tracing disputes over Afghanistan, as well as those ever neighboring Kashmir and Tibet, back to their Cold War roots, exploring clashes that continue to threaten to destabilize the region today. Combining vivid first-hand accounts of a war correspondent with a historical and strategic overview of the region, Margolis guides the reader through the geopolitical complexities of the area and its key players. He offers a clear, concise analysis of a complicated and little-understood part of the world that is home to a quarter of the world's population. Fascinating and now more timely than ever, War at the Top of the World is an extraordinary read for anyone interested in the current global balance of power.
