Book excerpt: Before Steve Irwin and Crocodile Dundee there was Alby Mangels -- the original Australian wild man and conservationist. An icon of the 80s who shot to fame and fortune through his ground-breaking World Safari series (as well as his many near death experiences and the beautiful women who were always in tow), Alby Mangels has finally broken fifteen years of self-imposed seclusion to re-emerge looking stronger, healthier and more daring than ever. At the height of his fame Alby Mangels was more than just a household name - he was a legend. His blockbuster travel documentaries, the WORLD SAFARI series, blazed a path into untamed territories. He explored the world and took us along. With an irrepressible spirit of adventure, his bull terrier by his side and a crew of willing accomplices, Alby's daring and dangerous exploits catapulted this very private person from obscurity to superstardom. The backlash was just as swift. Claims were made that his films were misleading and staged. A nature lover, he was accused of animal cruelty and even in his personal life Alby was often branded a 'playboy'. Now, decades on, Lynn Santer takes us beyond the WORLD SAFARI series to find the real Alby Manges - a legend who disappeared from the public spotlight no sooner than he'd found it. Discover the untold stories that followed, as Alby continued to explore the traditional cultures, natural wonders and incredible animals that share our planet. With a balance between the psychological impact that people and events had on Alby, and the pure action of his adventures, this book can take you on an exciting journey of its own. Anyone interested in adventure - who longs to experience it themselves, or just kick back and savour the adventures of others - will find 'The Alby Mangels Story' a satisfying trek into the world of a free-spirit and a spiritual inspiration.

Book excerpt: This addition to Intellect's Directory of World Cinema series turns the spotlight on Australia and New Zealand and offers an in-depth and exciting look at the cinema produced in these two countries since the turn of the twentieth century. Though the two nations share considerable cultural and economic connections, their film industries remain distinct, marked by differences of scale, level of government involvement and funding and relations with other countries and national cinemas. Through essays about prominent genres and themes, profiles of directors and comprehensive reviews of significant titles, this user-friendly guide explores the diversity and distinctiveness of films from Australia and New Zealand from Whale Rider to The Piano to Wolf Creek.

Book excerpt: Explosive SAS action in East Timor, Iraq and Afghanistan. The command came: 'Stop those vehicles!' It was like a red rag to a bull. Instantly streams of 7.62 mm tracer and 50 mm calibre machine gun rounds arced across the night sky and smashed into the bus and truck. Elite SAS Patrol Commander Stuart 'Nev' Bonner takes us inside the extraordinary and dangerous world of secret combat operations in this explosive, behind-the-scenes look at life inside the SAS. A world where capture means torture or death, and every move is trained for with precision detail to bring elite soldiers to the very peak of fighting ability. In a career spanning twenty years, fourteen of them in the SAS, Bonner shares with us the inside story of being out in front ? and often behind enemy lines. From patrolling the mountains of East Timor to covert operations in Bougainville and the Solomon Islands, from sweeping into the Iraqi desert ahead of invading US forces to cripple Saddam Hussein's communications to patrolling in war-torn Baghdad and being in the middle of the disastrous Operation Anaconda in Afghanistan ? this is a no holds barred account of what it like to live, eat and breathe SAS.

Book excerpt: Many people have asked me why I've written this book. The reason is simple. Although I have lived around diabetes since I was seven years old, even though several of my friends and neighbours were diagnosed with the condition years ahead of my own recent diagnosis, it wasn't until I was diagnosed that I truly realised the terrifying level of apathy and denial there is about diabetes, the minefield of misinformation that is out there, nor how enormous the spread of this global pandemic has become. There are countless books and theories and claims and counterclaims about diabetes, and in no way is this modest little publication designed to be the ultimate authority on the disease – far from it. No, my reason for doing this is to make you laugh, make you think, wake you up and show you both how easy and how important it is that you take responsibility and take it seriously… NOW. My father was a pharmaceutical chemist, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Health (London), chairman of an international pharmaceutical company… and a diabetic. He was diagnosed with Type Two diabetes when he was 36 years old, slim bordering on skinny, active and otherwise healthy. His career began in medical research and ultimately took him all over the world from the darkest corners of West Africa to the most fashionable quarters of Paris and the Caribbean. In the process he met some of the finest medical minds on the planet (many of whom are still my personal friends) and he witnessed some horrors that defy belief… and he did all this as a diabetic.Open, raw, honest, at times funny, at times poignant, at times unapologetically confrontational, this book is designed to inspire, assist and guide you – particularly if you are pre-diabetic, newly diagnosed with diabetes Type Two, or if you are a friend or family member of a diabetic. All facts and statistics in this book have sources from the official authorities on diabetes… my irreverent language and tone have not!* Enjoy * Be inspired * Take action!

His doctors told him to get his affairs in order without wasting time. However, they didnt count on his wife, Leonie, and her gift. Leonie is a medium who has received through her channelling a healing method known as Golden Ray Healing. Even though Warren had always been a non-believer, his options were running out. As well as undergoing conventional medical treatment, he allowed Leonie to treat him using Golden Ray Healing. For the next three years, he astounded his doctors by keeping his aggressive tumours at bay. When he finally passed, he asked Leonie to write their story and call it How I Helped My Husband Die. Leonie chose to call it He Died in the Light A Love Story as a tribute to Warrens transformation from spiritual sceptic to someone who believed in the power of healing. Warren Hosey was a charismatic, glamorous man with a huge appetite for all that life brought his way. Leonie is a gifted medium and natural therapist. She helped to develop Shell and Coral Essences and now teaches Golden Ray Healing to those wishing to heal themselves and their loved ones. This is their story a love story.

Book excerpt: She counts Hollywood superstars and senior politicians among her closest friends. She's walked with wild lions in Africa and through the corridors of power in London's Houses of Parliament. Her philanthropic contributions have helped children in Third World countries learn to read, and exposed ongoing brutal atrocities against endangered big game by a former US President. She's piloted light aircraft, acted as special consultant to the British Government on an eleven billion pound per annum legislative reform, planned covert missions with ex Special Forces commandos into Africa, brought Saddam Hussein's personal pilot together with an ultra orthodox Israeli Rabbi in a peace initiative, dated multi-millionaires, authored the authorised biography of Australia's most private man, the original wild man and wildlife warrior Alby Mangels, dived with sharks, and survived the crazed assault of a "fatal attraction" psycho. Lynn Santer aka "Auntie Lynn" has indeed led an unbelievable life, so much so she rarely talks about it for fear people, well, wouldn't believe her. Never before has she openly spoken about the intimate details, and exposed all the evidence to back up her stories, as she does now to close friend and fellow author, Sandra L. Rogers.

His popular TV series brought whales, otters, and dolphins right into people’s living rooms. Now, in this exciting picturebook biography, Dan Yaccarino introduces young readers to the man behind the snorkel. From the first moment he got a glimpse of what lived under the ocean’s waves, Cousteau was hooked. And so he set sail aboard the Calypso to see the sea. He and his team of scientists invented diving equipment and waterproof cameras. They made films and televisions shows and wrote books so they could share what they learned. The oceans were a vast unexplored world, and Cousteau became our guide. And when he saw that pollution was taking its toll on the seas, Cousteau became our guide in how to protect the oceans as well.
