Book Description
"The work of the late William Sutherland was well known in detail to very few people by reason of its advanced character, but many Australians were aware of its high reputation. The signatories to this introduction have taken steps, now that he has passed away, to place on record an account of his life and work. They have entrusted the fulfilment of this intention to Dr. W.A. Osborne, Professor of Physiology in the the University of Melbourne, who has generously exerted himself to do justice to the memory of this distinguished graduate. William Sutherland was known to a limited circle of friends, who appreciated to the full not only his ability, but still more his remarkable personality - an earnest, selfless, many-sided man removed from the affairs of the business world, asking only that he should be allowed to do a third of a day's work so that he might devote the remaining portion of the day to the studies that were dear to him. Yet he was no recluse and brought to bear on worldly affairs a most original, penetrating and comprehensive criticism of human motives and tendencies. No appeal to help in matters of knowledge was ever made to him in vain; in fact, so affectionate was his disposition, that refusal was impossible. The signatories have done all that is possible for them to render homage to the memory of a man who so materially enriched the world. P. Baracchi, J.W. Barrett (Hon. Sec.), H.B. Higgins, T.R. Lyle, Felix Meyer, G.A. Syme, Geoffrey Syme, G.F.H. Schuler, H.G. Turner."--Introduction

Acceptance is not Surrender
Author: William S. Sutherland
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1460239032
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
This is a story about accepting loss rather than getting beaten by it. It’s about redefining oneself after a crippling disease by living the ups and downs of self-discovery. Far from giving up, acceptance is living a life of disciplined thought and action, searching for newfound strengths to replace those that have been lost. It’s about the strength of the human spirit. It’s about perseverance, not only for the survivor but also for those closest to him. It’s about relationships and what loss does to test their strength and elasticity. It’s finding a way to move forward individually and collectively despite the obstacles. Whether it’s changing roles within the family, completing the paperwork for the body’s most basic function, confronting suicide, or walking “with no hands”, each of these activities, and more, all came with their specific challenges and rewards. The hard to find answers to the questions that started this journey are unique to the writer. They are presented not as a manifesto to follow, but as a starting point for you that you may find something here that can help you find your answers, unique to you.

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Aaliyah Remembered is an in-depth biography of star singer-actress Aaliyah Dana Haughton (1979-2001). It chronicles her life from the beginning to the end and focuses on both her stellar "Hot Like Fire" career, and on her as a person. Upon taking a "Journey To The Past" and completing the book, readers will have a three-dimensional in-depth portrait of the person behind the mystique and know why Aaliyah was "More Than A Woman" and "One In A Million." They'll discover why Aaliyah was not only a great performer, but a humble, classy, charitable and warm person who remains an inspiration for the ages. They'll discover her strong belief in God, family, and hard work. They'll see that in her spirit of "Never Givin' Up," dreams can come true even if one must at times, through setbacks and difficulties, dust themselves off and "Try Again." Aaliyah Remembered consists of hard-core Aaliyah material only. It is filled with her words and the words of her family, closest friends, and people who knew her. It also includes photographs, narratives of what countries around the world thought of her, and the lyrics to her biggest songs. Through these thoughts and stories, readers will experience her highs and lows and take a close-up, personal journey with Aaliyah as if she was reliving her life. Aaliyah Remembered is a compelling, must-have book for all who love her. It is also a necessity for anyone eager to discover a person worth knowing about or that generosity, love, and decency still exist in today's chaotic, troubled world, for "At [Her] Best [Aaliyah was love]" and the people of the world were "The One[s] [She] Gave [Her] Heart To." If there is one person worth discovering and emulating, it is Aaliyah Dana Haughton.
