Download or read book Secrets of the Nile written by Tasha Alexander and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2022-10-04 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a brilliant homage to Agatha Christie, critically acclaimed author Tasha Alexander sends Lady Emily to Egypt during British colonial rule to investigate a crime that leads back to the era of the Pharaohs. In Secrets of the Nile, Lady Emily and her husband, Colin Hargreaves, have joined his formidable mother on a holiday to visit the exotic treasures of Egypt. Their host, Lord Bertram Deeley, is a renowned amateur British collector of antiquities, who has invited his closest friends on a lavish cruise up the Nile to his home at Luxor. But on the first night of their journey, he suddenly collapses after offering a welcome toast, a victim of the lethal poison cyanide. Who amongst this group of his nearest and dearest would want to kill their generous host? Emily and Colin’s investigation soon reveals that even his closest friends had reasons to want him dead: was it the archeologist whose dig Deeley was poised to fund until he suddenly withdrew support? The powerful politician whose career Deeley had secretly destroyed? The dyspeptic aristocratic English spinster whose hired travelling companion seems determined to protect her employer? Or could it be Mrs. Hargreaves herself, who may have spurned the advances of Lord Deeley when they were both younger? A key clue may lie with several ancient ushabtis, exquisite three-thousand-year-old sculptures that played a role in a hidden story from the time of Ancient Egypt, one of a sister’s unshakeable loyalty to her brother, a tale of betrayal and revenge. In an unforgettable finale, Emily and Colin gather their fellow travelers together to unmask a killer whose motive is as shocking as it is brilliant.

Download or read book One Health written by Ronald M. Atlas and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging infectious diseases are often due to environmental disruption, which exposes microbes to a different niche that selects for new virulence traits and facilitates transmission between animals and humans. Thus, health of humans also depends upon health of animals and the environment – a concept called One Health. This book presents core concepts, compelling evidence, successful applications, and remaining challenges of One Health approaches to thwarting the threat of emerging infectious disease. Written by scientists working in the field, this book will provide a series of "stories" about how disruption of the environment and transmission from animal hosts is responsible for emerging human and animal diseases. Explains the concept of One Health and the history of the One Health paradigm shift. Traces the emergence of devastating new diseases in both animals and humans. Presents case histories of notable, new zoonoses, including West Nile virus, hantavirus, Lyme disease, SARS, and salmonella. Links several epidemic zoonoses with the environmental factors that promote them. Offers insight into the mechanisms of microbial evolution toward pathogenicity. Discusses the many causes behind the emergence of antibiotic resistance. Presents new technologies and approaches for public health disease surveillance. Offers political and bureaucratic strategies for promoting the global acceptance of One Health.

This book was released on 2022-11-10 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents explainability in edge AI, an amalgamation of edge computing and AI. The issues of transparency, fairness, accountability, explainability, interpretability, data-fusion, and comprehensibility that are significant for edge AI are being addressed in this book through explainable models and techniques. The concept of explainable edge AI is new in front of the academic and research community, and consequently, it will undoubtedly explore multiple research dimensions. The book presents the concept of explainability in edge AI which is the amalgamation of edge computing and AI. In the futuristic computing scenario, the goal of explainable edge AI will be to execute the AI tasks and produce explainable results at the edge. First, this book explains the fundamental concepts of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), then it describes the concept of explainable edge AI, and finally, it elaborates on the technicalities of explainability in edge AI. Owing to the quick transition in the current computing scenario and integration with the latest AI-based technologies, it is significant to facilitate people-centric computing through explainable edge AI. Explainable edge AI will facilitate enhanced prediction accuracy with the comprehensible decision and traceability of actions performed at the edge and have a significant impact on futuristic computing scenarios. This book is highly relevant to graduate/postgraduate students, academicians, researchers, engineers, professionals, and other personnel working in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and intelligent systems.

Download or read book How to Stay Safe When Entering the Healthcare System written by David Mayer, MD and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2022-10-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an urgent call to action centering on the author's thirty-five-year mission to raise awareness of the 250,000 lives that are lost each year to preventable medical harm and the harm faced by healthcare professionals in the form of workplace violence, depression, and burnout resulting in suicide rates higher than almost every other industry. The book's narrative-driven timeline follows the author's 2,452-mile walk to thirty-seven Major League Ballparks using his love of baseball as a way to garner media attention for his mission and indulge in the welcome relief of baseball nostalgia. Written for both medical professional and lay readers, the book pulls in stories of patients and caregivers harmed as a catalyst for change in our healthcare system, and as a way for the public to connect with the issues faced by healthcare professionals. Also included are pivotal anecdotes and stories from his medical career that propelled him to become an internationally recognized patient safety leader. This book will educate, inform, and entertain medical, nursing, and allied healthcare professionals; patients and families affected or harmed by medical care; healthcare leaders; medical, nursing and pharmacy students; and politicians interested in healthcare reform. After reading this book, the lay public will be empowered to question healthcare professionals about the quality of their care and learn how to stay safe when entering the healthcare system. WORDS OF PRAISE The personal stories reveal how Dr. Mayer confronts brutal truths of preventable patient harm, fixes what needs to be changed, and teaches next generation physicians to be leaders in patient safety. You won't want to put the book down, a real page-turner. --Rosemary Gibson, Nationally Acclaimed Author of Wall of Silence and China Rx Dr. Mayer is a literal trailblazer in patient safety, as his astonishing walk across America attests. This book cements his legacy as a patient safety titan, and is, at its core, a vital wake-up call to action for all of us. Read this book and prepare to be inspired. I know I was. --Steve Burrows, Writer/Director of HBO’s Award-winning Documentary Bleed Out. Dr Mayer is an international leader in promoting patient safety. This book is part of that mission. It is a book about an epic walk. It is a book about the art of good medical care. And it is a book that will help readers understand that we all have a role in making our health system safer. --Kim Oates AO MD DSC FRACP, Emeritus Professor, Child and Adolescent Health University of Sydney, Australia Dr. Mayer put himself on the line in walking for patient safety representing all involved in healthcare just as he put his career on the line through unwavering transparency, commitment to social justice, and support for all members of the care teams. It is leaders like Dr. Mayer and the stories within these pages that inspire their courageous dedication to do the right thing for every patient every day every time. --Gwen Sherwood, PhD, RN, FAAN, ANEF, Professor Emeritus, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Nursing, Co-Editor, Quality and Safety in Nursing: A Competency Approach to Improving Outcomes

Book Synopsis Terrorism, Asymmetric Warfare, and Weapons of Mass Destruction by : Anthony H. Cordesman
Download or read book Terrorism, Asymmetric Warfare, and Weapons of Mass Destruction written by Anthony H. Cordesman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2001-11-30 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a wide spectrum of potential threats to the U.S. homeland that do not involve overt attacks by states using long-range missiles or conventional military forces. Such threats include covert attacks by state actors, state use of proxies, independent terrorist and extremist attacks by foreign groups or individuals, and independent terrorist and extremist attacks by residents of the United States. These threats are currently limited in scope and frequency, but are emerging as potentially significant issues for future U.S. security. In this comprehensive work, Cordesman argues that new threats require new thinking, and offers a range of recommendations, from expanding the understanding of what constitutes a threat and bolstering Homeland defense measures, to bettering resource allocation and improving intelligence gathering and analysis. No pattern of actual attacks on U.S. territory has yet emerged that provides a clear basis for predicting how serious any given form of attack might be in the future, what means of attack might be used, or how lethal new forms of attack might be. As a result, there is a major ongoing debate over the seriousness of the threat and how the U.S. government should react. This work is an invaluable contribution to that debate.
