Book Synopsis Todi Walking Tours by : Bernard Mansheim
Download or read book Todi Walking Tours written by Bernard Mansheim and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a walking-tour guide for English-speaking visitors, through an ancient hill town in central Italy. Todi sits majestically above the Tiber River in the region of Umbria, very near the exact geographic center of Italy in Umbria. This region, known widely as "the green heart of Italy" for its lush fields and majestic hills, lies midway between Florence and Rome. Todi, a prototypical Italian hill town, was founded over 2,500 years ago and has retained its historic beauty by being surrounded by a set of walls that has prevented any new construction and experienced almost no demolition for over 500 years. The guide offers four walking tours that allow the visitor to appreciate historic sites from the Etruscan era, through the Roman centuries, and into the Renaissance. Each walk can be done in a leisurely fashion with almost no distraction from noise or car traffic.
Book Synopsis The Making of a Doctor by : Bernard Mansheim
Download or read book The Making of a Doctor written by Bernard Mansheim and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Making of a Doctor is a novel about a young physician, Dr. Luke James. The story chronicles his year as a medical intern, the most grueling year of any physician's professional training. The book is a prequel to the novel he published in 2017 entitled A Doctor a Day. The first book tells of Dr. James's experience in medical practice, as he suffers unending emotional pressure from caring for dying patients year after year. The current novel weaves Luke's life experiences with his medical training, where he evolves from a new medical school graduate to a seasoned physician during an unforgettable year. Not only does he suffer through the physical exhaustion of his internship, but multiple external factors have an impact that makes the burden even heavier. He learns first-hand how to blend art and science into the practice of medicine, and to learn empathy for his patients without being drowned in a whirlpool of emotion. At the other extreme he needs to learn that cold objectivity is not a solution because it detracts from his ability to understand each patient as an individual. This book is the second in a planned series called Everydoctor.

Book excerpt: The practice of medicine is a complex blend of art and science. Still A Doctor is a novel that chronicles the career of Dr. Luke James, beginning with the most grueling year of any physician's training- the internship. Armed with knowledge and confidence, Luke then embarks on a long and sinuous professional career as a physician. Over the years as he gains experience, Luke finds his path studded with challenges and road blocks that seem at times to be insurmountable. He carries an ever-growing emotional burden of caring for patients year after year, always searching for how to be the best doctor he can. The reader will gain insight into the practice of medicine through the thoughts, feelings and observations of Dr. James as he confronts death and dying, ethical dilemmas, medical malpractice, and the importance of empathy. Book Review: The author does a superb job of describing the inner psychological life of the protagonist, Dr. Luke James, using a deep point of view very adeptly to characterize him, his thoughts, and his state of mind. It is an honest and insightful portrayal of a medical practitioner's daily struggles with the inevitability of death...poignant, exceptionally daunting, and valiant. -- Chanticleer Reviews (1st Place winner of Somerset Awards)

Download or read book The Hero's Way written by Tim Parks and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed author of Italian Ways returns with an exploration into Italy’s past and present—following in the footsteps of Garibaldi’s famed 250-mile journey across the Apennines. In the summer of 1849, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Italy’s legendary revolutionary, was finally forced to abandon his defense of Rome. He and his men had held the besieged city for four long months, but now it was clear that only surrender would prevent slaughter and destruction at the hands of a huge French army. Against all odds, Garibaldi was determined to turn defeat into moral victory. On the evening of July 2, riding alongside his pregnant wife, Anita, he led 4,000 hastily assembled men to continue the struggle for national independence elsewhere. Hounded by both French and Austrian armies, the garibaldini marched hundreds of miles across the Appenines, Italy’s mountainous spine, and after two months of skirmishes and adventures arrived in Ravenna with just 250 survivors. Best-selling author Tim Parks, together with his partner Eleonora, set out in the blazing summer of 2019 to follow Garibaldi and Anita’s arduous journey through the heart of Italy. In The Hero’s Way he delivers a superb travelogue that captures Garibaldi’s determination, creativity, reckless courage, and profound belief. And he provides a fascinating portrait of Italy then and now, filled with unforgettable observations of Italian life and landscape, politics, and people.
