Book Description
Praise for Tiger Stripes "I instantly found myself lost in the wonderfully colorful and descriptive imagery of this fast paced and gritty, heartbreakingly real feeling native. As both a mother and one who struggles with anxiety and depression, I fully identify with Hannah's chaotic character. I can't wait to finish this story of destruction and hope!" "Such incredible vulnerability in sharing a story about real issues affecting so many, involving substance abuse and mental health issues. The author describes so many of the obstacles she encountered along the way so well I often times felt like I could truly relate to her experience. A story of self destruction that leads to a story of great hope!! Couldn't put it down!" "I started reading this and couldn't put it down. Hannah shares her story in a way that shows her honesty and the strength she has gained by living through her life's struggles. The way she writes makes the reader feel as if they are experiencing these events right along with Hannah and offer an insight into the way that addictions can hold the mind captive. This is an intense read but extremely worth it." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Four psychiatric wards Three rehabs Two jail cells And a suicide attempt... Hannah was told she would not make it to 25 with the way she was living. She had struggled with mental illness her entire life, but at 22 her demons came to a head at the grips of severe substance abuse, life-changing trauma, and two major deaths in her life. Hannah's struggles land her places no one ever hopes to grace; jail and psych wards lead her to the brink of death. Running out of options she's left with two choices: live or die. This heart-wrenching memoir combines recovery with bittersweet romance told in a raw presentation that immerses the reader into the author's dark state-of-mind in every page. Tiger Stripes is going to add a valuable voice to the conversation about women's mental health issues.

Saturn from Cassini-Huygens
Author: Michele Dougherty
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1402092172
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 799
Book Description
This book is one of two volumes meant to capture, to the extent practical, the scienti?c legacy of the Cassini-Huygens prime mission, a landmark in the history of planetary exploration. As the most ambitious and interdisciplinary planetary exploration mission ?own to date, it has extended our knowledge of the Saturn system to levels of detail at least an order of magnitude beyond that gained from all previous missions to Saturn. Nestled in the brilliant light of the new and deep understanding of the Saturn planetary system is the shiny nugget that is the spectacularly successful collaboration of individuals, - ganizations and governments in the achievement of Cassini-Huygens. In some ways the pa- nershipsformedandlessonslearnedmaybethemost enduringlegacyofCassini-Huygens.The broad, international coalition that is Cassini-Huygens is now conducting the Cassini Equinox Mission and planning the Cassini Solstice Mission, and in a major expansion of those fruitful efforts, has extended the collaboration to the study of new ?agship missions to both Jupiter and Saturn. Such ventures have and will continue to enrich us all, and evoke a very optimistic vision of the future of international collaboration in planetary exploration. The two volumes in the series Saturn from Cassini-Huygens and Titan from Cassini- Huygens are the direct products of the efforts of over 200 authors and co-authors. Though each book has a different set of three editors, the group of six editors for the two volumes has worked together through every step of the process to ensure that these two volumes are a set.
