Haemophilia in Aotearoa New Zealand provides a richly detailed analysis of the experience of the bleeding disorder of haemophilia based on longterm ethnographic research. The chapters consider experiences of diagnosis; how parents, children, and adults care and integrate medical routines into family life; the creation of a gendered haemophilia; the use and ethical dilemmas of new technologies for treatment, testing and reproduction; and how individuals and the haemophilia community experienced the infected blood tragedy and its aftermath, which included extended and ultimately successful political struggles with the neoliberalising state. The authors reveal a complex interplay of cultural values and present a close-up view of the effects of health system reforms on lives and communities. While the book focuses on the local biology of haemophilia in Aotearoa New Zealand, the analysis allows for comparison with haemophilia elsewhere and with other chronic and genetic conditions.

This research builds on previous studies conducted by the "Living with haemophilia" researchers over the past decade in New Zealand. The current study investigates the implications of new treatments, new technologies, and changes in health care for people and families with haemophilia and those who care for them, in the context of everyday living with haemophilia. The research design used semi-structured face-to-face interviews and/ or telephone interviews with 37 people, and participant observation at a range of haemophilia gatherings. We asked people to share with us their perceptions and/ or experience of prenatal genetic diagnosis, preimplantation genetic diagnosis, gene therapy, and new treatments for hepatitis C, as well as their everyday experiences with haemophilia. The study design and the reasons we undertook it are described in the introduction. The first substantive section highlights the everyday issues of living with haemophilia as a bleeding disorder. The second discusses the organisational ecology of haemophilia. The third traverses issues concerning haemophilia as a genetic disorder, passed down the generations, and the final section explores the presence of hepatitis C in the haemophilia community. In the conclusions we note that there are still some difficulties around the timely diagnosis of haemophilia. However, treatment for many people has changed from on-demand to prophylaxis and from the provision of blood products to recombinant products. These technologies have had significant effects on perceptions of the seriousness of haemophilia, on the safety of products, on daily living, and on relationships with the treatment sources: from products made from donations, to those manufactured by multinational pharmaceutical companies. There was a high level of awareness of the costs of treatment, compared to the earlier studies. The formation of a National Haemophilia Management Group, which was a result of years of work between the Haemophilia Foundation of New Zealand (HFNZ), medical experts, and Ministry of Health officials, was a very welcome development in 2006. The HFNZ continues play an important part in many people's lives. Despite a continuing emphasis on women as carriers, there is a greater realisation that men, too, pass on haemophilia, and that women can suffer from bleeding problems. Parents were exercised by the timing of when to tell their daughters about their carrier status, but carrier testing very seldom incurs the long delays of earlier years. Issues around carrying haemophilia on and reproductive choice are handled with great care in this community. A wide range of views were encountered, tempered by respect for the positions of others. Discussion of gene therapy was a little passé in this community, as it had been on an ever-moving horizon for many years, and because new alternative treatments were seemingly offering considerable benefits. However, gene therapy was not dismissed as a future possibility. Hepatitis C has had important effects on this community and on the individuals within it: effectively there is a hep C generation and a post-hep C generation. It was heartening that those undergoing the most recent form of treatment appeared to be experiencing better outcomes, although the treatment itself was gruelling. At the end of this research period, a Government announcement of acknowledgement, compensation and treatment was made, fulfilling a decade and a half of struggle for recognition of harm.

The first installment in Donachie's sweeping Roads to War series set in the pre-WWII European powder keg 1935: Cal Jardine is a soldier of fortune. Forced to leave Hamburg where he has been helping Jews flee the Nazis, he is recruited by a secretive British committee to smuggle guns to Abyssinia, a country threatened by Italian invasion. But first Jardine must procure the weapons from Rumania, a country full of treacherous locals as well as German agents seeking his arrest. By sleight of hand, he contrives to steal the weapons he wanted to buy before escaping the country, leaving both the Rumanians and Germans floundering. Taken to the Horn of Africa, the arms are then transported over a harsh landscape, along an old slave trader’s route full of danger, and into the hands of the Ethiopian Army. On his travels, Jardine acquires more baggage than he anticipated—including a beautiful but difficult American woman in search of her archaeologist mother, a determined reporter, and a daredevil French flyer—and avoids a painful death by sheer good fortune. But the Ethiopians are ill-equipped to face a modern Italian army using tanks, bombers, and poison gas. Trained for war, can Jardine simply walk away, or will he be drawn into a bloody conflict against massive odds? And can he manage to save those who now depend on him?

'Another jam-packed, thrilling outing for Wingfield's DI Jack Frost.' Stuart MacBride On a rainy night in Denton, Detective Inspector Jack Frost is called to the site of a macabre discovery in the woods - that of a human foot. Meanwhile a multiple rapist is on the loose, the local supermarket reports poisoned stock and a man claims to have cut his wife up into little pieces, yet can't recall where he hid them. But it is when two young girls are reported missing in quick succession that the Denton crime wave reaches terrifying heights. As the exhausted Frost staggers from case to case, pressured from all sides and haunted by memories of his wife, something nasty arrives at the station in the form of Detective Chief Inspector Skinner. The scheming, slippery Skinner clearly has his eye on the Superintendent's office, but his first job is to manipulate the transfer of the unorthodox D.I. Jack Frost to another division. Will Frost find the missing girls before his new nemesis forces him away from Denton once and for all? The addictive crime novel from the creator of A TOUCH OF FROST

CRM was supposed to help businesses better understand their customers and increase efficiency. Yet most companies are not getting the return they expected. Is it possible to make customers happy and, at the same time, improve ROI? Is there a practical, affordable way to get customers to say what they really want? In Why CRM Doesn't Work, leading international marketing consultant Frederick Newell explains why it's time to change the game to CMR (Customer Management of Relationships). CMR allows companies to empower customers so they'll reveal what kind of information they want, what level of service they want to receive, and how to communicate with them--where, when, and how often. It is a bold solution for businesspeople at all levels in all industries who want to stay ahead of the curve in the development of customer loyalty. Newell shows by lesson and example why the current CRM isn't working, what needs to change, and how to put the CMR philosophy to work--without additional expense. The book includes case studies of good and bad relationship marketing from companies as diverse as Kraft Foods, Procter & Gamble, Budweiser, Charles Schwab, Dell, IBM, Lands' End, Sports Authority, Radio Shack, and Staples. With the knowledge in this book, a company can learn to build long-term relationships and bring in profits instead of relying on one-time sales. Why CRM Doesn't Work is important reading for companies of every size that are trying to satisfy and sell to today's consumer.
