    'Our entire lives we are told what to think, what to feel, what to say. We are told who we are. All those personas we are given... But who am I really?' The Sum of all Parts is a shattered story of life, love, pain, memories, betrayal, and hope. Told through the eyes of six women, it reflects on how our thoughts create feelings, our feelings create behaviour, and our behaviour creates feelings: the endless cycle that drives life.

  • - A Life in Vascular Surgery
    av Peter Harris

    Blood is the life-force of every human being (and other animals). When it leaks out of our blood vessels, we die. When the aorta, the biggest blood vessel in the body, bursts, death usually comes quickly but for a lucky few it's not instantaneous. For them, survival is possible with emergency surgery. When a blockage in a blood vessel stops the blood from flowing, the deprived part of the body malfunctions and may decay if an operation to relieve the blockage is not performed. When Peter Harris first became a consultant vascular surgeon in the 1980s, the operations were big and bloody. When he finished in 2012, scalpels and saws had been largely superseded by bloodless needle-puncture procedures guided by X-ray images on a television screen. The evolution of the technology that made this possible is told primarily through the experiences of patients and includes vivid and, at times, harrowing descriptions of their operations and aftermath. Accounts of his own trials and tribulations and the good times are set against the troubled backdrop of the NHS starting in Broadgreen Hospital on the outskirts of Liverpool in 1979 and ending at University College Hospital in London in 2012.

Pike, himself a retired firefighter, has cleverlyselected material that delivers both a comprehensive history of theLondon Fire Brigade and a fascinating portrait of individual firemenand women, at work and (occasionally) at play. The book includesvivid, occasionally harrowing articles on important events involving theBrigade - the Sidney Street Siege of 1911, the London Blitz and the 1981Brixton riots, to name just a few - as well as covering key figures withinthe Brigade like James Braidwood and Massey Shaw. The more personalsections provide a revealing insight into the bravery, commitment andcamaraderie of ordinary working firefighters and their families.The numerous, often highly dramatic illustrations, many from the LondonFire Brigade''s own collection, offer a lively commentary on the text.All the profits from this book will go to the Fire Service charity,Firemen Remembered.David Pike was a London firefighter for more than 30 years, retiring atsenior rank in 1996.
