Following the trails of Hawai‘i’s snails to explore the simultaneously biological and cultural significance of extinction. In this time of extinctions, the humble snail rarely gets a mention. And yet snails are disappearing faster than any other species. In A World in a Shell, Thom van Dooren offers a collection of snail stories from Hawai‘i—once home to more than 750 species of land snails, almost two-thirds of which are now gone. Following snail trails through forests, laboratories, museums, and even a military training facility, and meeting with scientists and Native Hawaiians, van Dooren explores ongoing processes of ecological and cultural loss as they are woven through with possibilities for hope, care, mourning, and resilience. Van Dooren recounts the fascinating history of snail decline in the Hawaiian Islands: from deforestation for agriculture, timber, and more, through the nineteenth century shell collecting mania of missionary settlers, and on to the contemporary impacts of introduced predators. Along the way he asks how both snail loss and conservation efforts have been tangled up with larger processes of colonization, militarization, and globalization. These snail stories provide a potent window into ongoing global process of environmental and cultural change, including the largely unnoticed disappearance of countless snails, insects, and other less charismatic species. Ultimately, van Dooren seeks to cultivate a sense of wonder and appreciation for our damaged planet, revealing the world of possibilities and relationships that lies coiled within a snail’s shell.

THE MUST-READ AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF ONE OF BRITAIN'S BEST-LOVED BOXERS; NOW HITTING THE RING ON DANCING ON ICE 2024 On 24 November 2012, four-time World Champion boxer Ricky Hatton dropped to his knees, felled by a sickening punch to the body in his first comeback fight in almost three years. Gasping for breath, down and out, it was then that something extraordinary happened: 20,000 fans began to sing his name. Ricky Hatton: War and Peace is the story of one of British boxing’s true icons. From a Manchester council estate to the bright lights of Las Vegas, Ricky Hatton experienced incredible highs in his career, including one of the greatest ever wins by a British boxer, over the IBF Light Welterweight champion Kostya Tszyu. But heavy defeats to two legends of the ring, Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, brought him quickly down to earth to face a new set of battles against depression, drink and drugs. Written with his trademark honesty and wit, this is the inspiring story of a charismatic, funny, straight-talking fighter who boxing fans have always taken to their hearts; a man who has survived a lifetime of wars both in and out of the ring, and who only now is finding something close to peace.

Shell shock was the signature injury of the First World War. Military doctors during the conflict on the Western Front observed and personally experienced psychiatric states they had never witnessed before. This text reviews the published medical literature of that era which graphically detailed the clinical states of hysteria (conversion disorder) and neurasthenia (anxiety and PTSD). Medical officers at the front evolved pragmatic medicinal, cognitive and behavioural interventions, still practised today, though never scientifically proven to be effective. The doctors, like their patients, endured numerous horrors at the front, which were, for many, to influence their post-war personal and professional lives. Much of what they wrote was forgotten and deserves reconsideration. Neuropsychiatry was founded in the shell craters of Flanders.

My desire to journal my thoughts came at an important time in my life. And the reason why it was an important time of my life is because I had unknowingly discovered how beneficial and freeing the art of journaling is to my well-being. I had always been against the idea of sharing my journal in a public way but, the more I started to embrace the feeling of vulnerability as a growth opportunity, it's led me to a more enjoyable life. I'm 27 years old. If I had to go back and think of how to write a foreword based off of what I was told to do, I'd tell you about myself right now - my expertise, where I went to school, what I once did, what I do now, etc. However, I'm not much of a believer in being told what to do, so I want to tell you what I think in this current moment. Have I experienced things? Yes. Much like you. I'm 27 years old and everything I have done in life has led me to this exact moment. What I want to express to you, the reader, is that it doesn't matter what I have done in order for someone to read, agree/disagree, and relate to my writings. The best way for me to describe my journaling practice is that of a flow state. The hardest part of journaling, based on my own experience, is the ability to disengage my own ego and opinion from interfering. How many times have you written something down while journaling and then scribbled it out? Why did you scribble it out? As you will see, I've scribbled things out as well...but I'd like to think that I was scribbling out my own biased ego rather than the truth. The compiled writings I want to share with you is in its rawest and first formed, natural entry. I debated sharing EVERYTHING I have written and I have decided to share it all. Why?Two reasons:1) I have nothing to be ashamed about (I am a human who has struggled with my own ego). Have I ever felt scared or ashamed of thoughts I've had? Absolutely. How do I feel after I write down my truthful thoughts? Better. I'm taking proactive steps to dissolving the fear and deepening my relationship with myself. It is my responsibility to be truthful to myself at all times.2) I do not know what someone else may consider helpful or insightful. I'd feel much more comfortable telling you (the reader) that I don't expect nor do I assume you will understand (or even want to understand) some of my writings. For the people in my life, thank you. I love you. I have not journaled very long and will continue to always do so. Journaling has brought me moments of peace and a sense of seeing the beauty in all things. I am just like you, a person. I have no skill or expertise that qualifies me to justify my thoughts as "better." Journaling has been so healthy for me because it allows me to center myself with truth rather than everything else. And what journaling has shown me is the ability to understand more of myself. Does discovery of myself ever end? I hope not.

Rapist. Murderer. Pedophile. Church deacon. These are some of the words that characterize my father. From the age of seven to the age of eighteen, Lucinda Mills lived in fear of her father. The very man who was supposed to love and protect her was the one who robbed her of her innocence, making her the target of his sick perversions as he raped her repeatedly for over a decade. Years later Lucinda was still dealing with the aftermath of incest and abuse, her hatred toward her father and the baggage she carried affecting every aspect of her life-even her relationship with God, her Heavenly Father. In Let Yesterday Go: Finding Grace in the Midst of the Storm, she shares her heartrending story of survival, struggle, and ultimately triumph through love and forgiveness. Raw with emotion and honesty, this story is one that victims of all types of abuse can find hope in, discovering that it is possible to Let Yesterday Go.
