In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: Very Good. The intensive-care unit (ICU) in any hospital is shrouded in mystery and driven by daily dramas, a world off-limits to most staff - and certainly to the public. It has an atmosphere in which the emotions evoked by death contrast with the joy experienced when a patient recovers. Deciding when not to treat a patient is one which ICU consultants make every day, in an environment where they know a third of the patients will die. Decisions they are forced to make often bring them into conflict with patients' relatives, and even their own colleagues. Through specific case histories and anecdotes, this book explores the constant practical, ethical and moral dilemmas faced by ICU staff. Tied to a six-part BBC1 television series, it shows how an ICU functions, and how decisions between life and death are made. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: Very Good. Variously described as 'the cleverest and wittiest work of the year, or bastard century even' (Melody Maker) or 'the funniest wisest book ever written' (The Times), The Onion team's first book, Our Dumb Century, was widely and hugely praised. Their second tome delivers more hilarious satire in the same vein as: 'Muhammed Ali KO's Ronald Reagan In Nursing Home Scuffle', 'Drugs Win Drugs War', or 'Martin Luther King: I Had A Really Weird Dream Last Night'. The strength of The Onion lies in the fact that the text underneath the brilliant headlines is just as funny. As Nicholas Lezard said of Our Dumb Century: 'I cannot imagine a funnier book being written - well, ever' (Guardian). The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: Very Good. They are the footballers who have brought a little more to Pele's "beautiful game" than the steady right foot, a neat sidestep, a reliable throw-in and respect for "the gaffer". They are out there living life on the edge - bad boys and hard men playing their own rules. Through sheer talent and force of personality, the eight men profiled have made it to the top of their game and the front of the tabloids, and stayed there. They have all earned a special place in football lore, and will be talked about in pubs and boot-rooms for years to come, long after they have walked away from the game. Each of them has crossed the line, each of them has taken their life or career to the extreme. They have turned their sport into Britain's favourite real-life soap opera, but what makes them tick? "Football Stories" charts the career ups and downs of eight players and managers, on and off the pitch, from their early days in the local leagues to international glory. But what happens when the football is over? Where are they now? The footballers featured are: Cantona; McAvennie; Maradona; Best; Pearce; Clough; Jones; and Ferguson.

In Them, Jon sets out, with the help of the extremists, to locate that room. The journey is as creepy as it is comic, and along the way Jon is chased by men in dark glasses, unmasked as a Jew in the middle of a Jihad training camp, and witnesses international CEOs and politicians participate in a bizarre pagan ritual in the forests of northern California.

Poll's ambition is for things to stay exactly the same for ever, and for Katherine never to leave their pit village of Bank Top. Katherine has other ideas, and she can feel change is coming; the omens are all around her. In the meantime, she cleans up after Poll, revises for her exams, watches daytime television and surfs the net at the library trying to find out how to be bulimic.
