Paperback. Zustand: Good. A FINAL EXAMINATION The basic premise of A Final Examination is that as I approach the later stages of fifty years of a life in medicine I have borne witness over the last generation to what would appear to be the gradual decline of family medicine to the point of imminent dissolution. I am well aware that this reality does weigh heavily on my heart and soul as a physician and for that matter throughout my being. I composed a memoir as what seemed to me the most accurate way to dramatize the nature of this loss - beginning with looking at the genesis of my life in medicine, i.e. where doctors come from, and an extensive and personal look at the context and content of a doctor's life, leading to the magic that can occur between doctor and patient. I am a private person. I have always valued the anonymity with which I have been able to live to work and work to live. I want for nothing that I do not already have, certainly not any form of public visibility or recognition. But what other form of revelation can substantiate my plea for concern about medicine's future than one based on open and honest self-revelation, one in which many of my patients also generously have joined in? Who might want to read this book? If you have never had the need for the intimate and trusting support of a competent physician, you will be fortunate to reach your life's conclusion and be able to continue to say the same, as we all will become older, we all make errors of judgment, we all suffer misuses and abuses, we all meet with disease in some form - thus it is to be human - all of us, every manner of doctor included, eventually need a doctor. And this makes the possible disappearance of the traditional dynamic between doctor and patient in all of its manifestations relevant to us all. When you need to make your call, you will not want the medical profession to be as hollow and empty, as antiquated and obsolete as a telephone booth with a dangling defunct phone. At least the telephone booth was replaced with a new and better technology. Does anyone else out there think that our era is so rife with challenge and despair that it is no longer within the power of individuals and committed groups to envision and work toward positive change? The best of our forebearers, many of whom I reference in A Final Examination rejected that thought entirely. It would be my preference to do the same.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Raised by their single mother and grandmother and living on the minimum wage, two brothers became pilots in WWII. One flew B-17 bombers; the other flew P-47 and P-51 fighters. Both were killed in action. Prolific letter writers, the brothers wrote more than 200 letters to their mother between 1942 and 1945 describing their new adventures in their ever more dangerous world. In these letters, discovered many years later by her grandson, you will see in a very personal way the war a mother saw as presented to her by her sons. Not a technical description of military tactics, battles, and jargon, the letters instead create a simple yet profound human interest story of a small, close knit American family torn apart by the reality of war. You'll read of both the loneliness and excitement they felt being away from home for the first time, see them grow from awestruck boys when they first observe military planes up close to confident pilots of the fastest and largest planes in the AAF. You will even take a ride on a dangerous combat mission. You will find out about their frustrations, perseverance, humor, courage, and relationships. But mostly you will see how two brothers with totally different personalities, reflected even in the types of planes they flew, shared a common bond of love for their mother that was unshakable. When the letters stop, you will get to read the dreaded telegrams from the War Department that took their place. And finally you get to actually hear from their mother as she describes her worst fears and the ultimate tragedy with which she was confronted as the horror of war came home to her, not once but twice. Besides the letters, there is a section of very dramatic eyewitness accounts explaining what happened to the brothers on each of their final missions. There is also a brief biographical sketch of the women who loved them and were left behind. The book is enhanced with numerous pictures with descriptive captions. For WWII aviation buffs there is a detailed list of the types of aircraft each brother trained on, including the hours and specific training facility.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. It would be impossible to overstate the influence of Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, A work with one metaphorical foot planted in the Florentine Renaissance literary tradition of Boccaccio's Decameron and the other in works ranging from John Bunyan, Voltaire, and Mark Twain to the popular entertainments of our own time, The Canterbury Tales stands astride the cultures of Great Britain and America, and much of Europe, like a benign colossus. Beyond its importance as a cultural touchstone and literary work of unvarnished genius, Chaucer's unfinished epic poem is also one of the most beloved works in the English language-and for good reason: It is lively, absorbing, perceptive, and outrageously funny-an undisputed classic that has held a special appeal for generations of readers. Chaucer has gathered twenty-nine of literature's most indelible archetypes-from the exalted Knight to the bawdy Wife to the besotted Miller to the humble Plowman-in a vivid group portrait that captures the full spectrum of late-medieval English society and both informs and expands our discourse on the human condition. Presented in these pages in a new unabridged translation by the esteemed poet, translator, and scholar Burton Raffel-whose translation of Beowulf has sold more than a million copies-this Modern Library edition also features an Introduction by the well-known and widely influential medievalist and author John Miles Foley that discusses Chaucer's work as well as to his life and times. Despite the brilliance of Geoffrey Chaucer's work, the continual evolution of our language has rendered his words unfamiliar to many of us. Burton Raffel's magnificent new translation bringsChaucer's poetry back to life, ensuring that none of the original's wit, wisdom, or humanity is lost to the modern reader.…
