Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The humorous and touching memoir of a woman who’s been seeking relief from a headache for more than two years. Jennette Fulda was riding high on the success of her first book, Half-Assed: A Weight-Loss Memoir, until one fateful day in February 2008, when she developed a headache—and it never went away. So she dealt with it the best way she knows how: by writing about it. And eating lots of chocolate. In Chocolate and Vicodin, Jennette explores her change of identity from “the girl who lost hundreds of pounds” to “the girl who lives with constant pain,” and all she’s had to endure to try and make the pain stop—from a bevy of expensive, time-consuming tests, which have taught her interesting facts (for example, that an MRI does indeed cost more than a European vacation—and doesn’t last nearly as long), to tons of medications prescribed by her doctors to hilarious, sometimes insane advice she’s received from her blog readers. While nothing’s been able to grant her relief, she has gained a new perspective. Instead of dwelling on the “invisible tiara of nails” she may very well wear for the rest of her life, she’s instead learned how to live with the pain, sharing with readers not only how she’s managed to get by, but to laugh—and thrive—in spite of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adverse reactions to prescription medicines are now a leading cause of death in America. Medicines are powerful treatments but unpredictable. They don’t work the same in everyone, much like how chocolate has a different effect on your pet than it does on you. Why Dogs Can’t Eat Chocolate: How Medicines Work and How YOU Can Take Them Safely bridges the gap between what most of us understand about pills and what most doctors assume you already know about your medication. From Barney the Bassett hound puppy’s encounter with chocolate stars, to the 3 “Ds” of Taking Medicine Safely, and Dr. Louise’s 5 Key Strategies for Protecting You and Your Loved Ones from the Dangers of Drug Therapy, Why Dogs Can’t Eat Chocolate covers it all. If you want to make sense of all the information about your medicine that’s available from your doctor, pharmacist, and other sources, this is the book you (and we all) have been waiting for. Keep your pet safe from chocolate poisoning AND discover what your doctor and pharmacist want you to know about your medications and how to take them safely.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With all of the progress African Americans have made, they still face many risks that threaten the entire race or place segments in jeopardy of survival. This work examines the widespread problem and suggests solutions. This two-volume set examines the issues and policies that put African Americans at risk in our culture today, utilizing the most recent research from scholars in the field to provide not only objective, encyclopedic information, but also varying viewpoints to encourage critical thinking. The entries comprehensively document how African Americans are treated differently, have more negative outcomes in the same situations than other races, and face risks due to issues inherent in their past or current social and economic conditions. Care is taken to note distinctions between subgroups and not further a "blanket approach" to the diverse members of this minority population. Intended for members of the African American community; societal scholars; students in the fields of health, social studies, and public policy; as well as general readers, this work will provide readers with a deeper understanding of key components affecting the lives of African Americans today.
