Midnight in Glasgow is not the best time to be faced with a dead body. Particularly if the body in question is your ex-lover and the woman grieving at her bedside used to be your friend. Add a corpse packed with Temazepam, a genetic engineer with an unstable past and a killer on the loose with a knife and you have all the reason you need to walk away and never come back. Glasgow therapist Dr Kellen Stewart has put the past behind her: medical career, relationship, life on the farm in the country. Thenthe phone rings and Bridget is dead – the only lover who ever counted.The local doctor says it's a heart attack, the police think it's suicide. Kellen knows that it's neither but is she willing to rake up the past to prove it? Dragged into a world of rogue doctors, bent genetic engineers and killers who gut their victims as a warning, Kellen must face her own past as much as the very real terrors of the present to stop the killing – or she'll be next.

Nothing but the Tooth
Author: Barry K.B Berkovitz
Publisher: Newnes
ISBN: 0123971934
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
While most books on dentistry describe the clinical and medical procedures involved, this book expands the field to examine the role of dentistry and teeth in everything from biology to biography. This book offers facts and figures regarding famous historical figures, such as John Hunter, Dr Crippen, Doc Holliday, and Paul Revere, exploring how their connections to dentistry shaped them, as well as the story of the two young dentists who discovered the principles of general anaesthesia. Other chapters focus on the amazing ranges of teeth in animals, from the teeth in piranhas to the tusks and ivory of elephants and narwhals, looking at their biological and cultural significance. The importance of teeth in understanding the evolution of humans and in revolutionizing the study of archaeology is also evaluated. This book is appropriate for dentists, medical and dentistry students, and non-specialists to introduce the myriad interesting aspects relating to teeth. Please note that print volumes do not include full colour. - Includes well-illustrated and thoroughly explained examples and anecdotes - Presents both popular and little-known instances of teeth's importance in history - Written in an engaging tone appropriate for academics and the wider public

GNOMONIC VERSES

Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
Clusters of English "unofficial" roses have climbed the fence to face the sun. Each in its crimson finery supposes that it, alone, is the only one. Compliment inflates. Blame deflates. Truth understates. When the Giant Progress invented the wheel, he drove around running over everyone's babies until they begged him to invent the road. FOOL MOON Abolishing the moon by draining the pool is an occupation for the fool. Look at her! Sitting like a Question Mark, halfway between please and no thank you. I asked my Mother, "What shall I be? Will I be famous? Will I be rich?" Here's what she said to me: "You will be a Big Issue Seller! Just like your father before you!" THATCHER Ethics detached from intelligence (a dangerous thing in woman). She abused her education by sunbathing her ego in every passing neon light. DEIST AND ATHEIST Be careful when you stop believing in God. He may stop believing in you.
