Download or read book Anthropology of Landscape written by Christopher Tilley and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2017-02-01 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Anthropology of Landscape tells the fascinating story of a heathland landscape in south-west England and the way different individuals and groups engage with it. Based on a long-term anthropological study, the book emphasises four individual themes: embodied identities, the landscape as a sensuous material form that is acted upon and in turn acts on people, the landscape as contested, and its relation to emotion. The landscape is discussed in relation to these themes as both ‘taskscape’ and ‘leisurescape’, and from the perspective of different user groups. First, those who manage the landscape and use it for work: conservationists, environmentalists, archaeologists, the Royal Marines, and quarrying interests. Second, those who use it in their leisure time: cyclists and horse riders, model aircraft flyers, walkers, people who fish there, and artists who are inspired by it. The book makes an innovative contribution to landscape studies and will appeal to all those interested in nature conservation, historic preservation, the politics of nature, the politics of identity, and an anthropology of Britain.

Download or read book Honour Among Spies written by Asad Durrani and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2020-10-12 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May 2018, a book was published that set off a perfect storm in the intelligence circles in the subcontinent, and made people in the spy community sit up around the world. What made The Spy Chronicles unusual was that two of its authors, A.S. Dulat and Asad Durrani, co-writing with journalist Aditya Sinha, had headed their respective spy agencies -- Dulat had been chief of India's RAW, and Lt Gen. Durrani of Pakistan's ISI. The fallout of the book would result in Lt Gen. Durrani being put on the exit control list and having his pension revoked.Honour Among Spies is a fictional account of a spy who is sent out into the cold, but one that reflects all too accurately the predicament of a distinguished officer fighting to protect his reputation. Woven into the novel is a throwback to another famous incident -- the raid on Osama bin Laden, about whose hideaway and the raid itself Lt Gen. Durrani had made some prescient comments. These and other elements come together in this taut battle of wits that takes forward, in a way, the narrative of The Spy Chronicles.

Download or read book Prostate Cancer Unmasked written by Ray M. Schilling, M.d. and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-20 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The FDA approved the PSA test in 1986 as a "monitor for treatment response and disease recurrence". Later in 1994 the FDA approved the PSA test as a screening tool for prostate cancer. But the question remained: what was the best treatment tool? I am reviewing 9 different treatment approaches in this book. They are all currently in use by different physicians. But they do not necessarily serve the patient best. Brachytherapy does not quite do it. It improves the cancer for a period of time, and after a few years it returns with a vengeance. The radical prostatectomy and the robotic prostatectomy have helped a significant amount of patients. But long-term studies show that there can be a recurrence rate of as much as 25 to 30%. In addition there are significant side effects like a killed sex life and involuntary dribbling of urine, if the bladder outlet was injured during the surgery. Quite often urologists recommend "active surveillance". This approach to prostate cancer means that a 71 to 75 year old prostate cancer sufferer is kept in suspense by the urologist. An initial rectal biopsy is done with a histology assessment where a Gleason score is analyzed. If this score is 6 or less, the cancer is presumed to be less aggressive and active surveillance is done. Another biopsy is done 1 year later and this could go on until the patient dies of a heart attack or a stroke. I think that prostate cancer should be treated early before metastases develop and the cancer gets out of control. There are other methods that actually can get rid of the prostate cancer, for instance cryoablation therapy following a mapping biopsy. In this latter method 60 biopsies are placed like a grid through the entire prostate gland to identify the exact location where prostate cancer has developed. This is done through the perineum (between the scrotum and the anal opening). Prostate cancer can often be multifocal: there may be two or three areas where prostate cancer is located. One month after the mapping procedure probes are introduced in the same way, through the perineum and the identified cancer lesions are treated with cryotherapy twice. I am explaining this in chapter 15 in more detail. According to Dr. Onik, an interventional radiologist in Ft. Lauderdale, active surveillance is something that should be abandoned. Instead the following treatment approach should be adopted. 1. A rising PSA or single PSA above 30 should trigger a referral for a mapping biopsy through the perineal approach under a general anesthetic. The treating physician can sterilize the area and perform biopsies in a sterile fashion, which prevents infection. This is a huge advantage above the standard transrectal approach, which can lead to infections like prostatitis and blood poisoning. 2. Based on the result of the mapping biopsy targeted ablation cryotherapy is performed one month later eradicating all the cancer foci determined through the mapping biopsy. 3. Follow-up PSA levels are obtained every three months for 2 years. If the PSA is less than 3.0, the patient is considered cured. If there is a rising PSA level point 1 and 2 above are repeated until a cure is achieved. Dr. Gary Onik published a 10-year follow-up study that had a 100% survival rate and a 94% cure rate in 70 men with prostate cancer. The reason for such good results is that attention is paid to detail, to the exact location of the cancer and that all cancer is completely eradicated. In my opinion this is the new blueprint of a common sense approach to prostate cancer. Read more details about this in chapter 15. Apart from the above mentioned treatment methods I reviewed external beam radiotherapy, laser ablation therapy and high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment. I noticed that the long-term cure rates over 10 years differ considerably from one treatment modality to the next. All of this is reviewed in detail in this book.
