Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1987 Peter Thomson served as permanent secretary to Fiji's governor general between the country's two explosive coups d'etat. In this book he interweaves the inside story of the governor general's efforts to restore parliamentary democracy and the rule of law with a vivid account of his own life growing up in Fiji and the love that experience inspired - from a colonial childhood to a colourful career in government service. When Thomson is imprisoned by the Fiji army for his role in defending the legality of the governor general's office, he is confronted by, and comes to terms with, the reality of the non-indigenous person's position in the South Pacific. The book examines why Colonel Rabuka and the indigenous Fijians acted the way they did during 1987, and why, when all the conditions seemed poised for it, Fiji did not go down the bloody route of Bosnia or Rwanda. It looks at the role of the British monarchy in Fiji's hour of crisis and the muddled reaction of the governments of Asutralia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom to the Fiji trauma. Entwined through the author's reportage of the coups is an evocative picture of life in the islands. Thus, "Kava in the Blood" is also an intriguing story of hurricanes, haunted houses and copious kava consumption, set within the dramatic landscapes and vibrant cultures of the Fiji Islands.

Book excerpt: Get caught up in this terrifying psychological thriller, book 6 in Alex Kava’s acclaimed Maggie O’Dell series. Veteran FBI profiler Maggie O’Dell and Assistant Director Cunningham believed the threat targeted Quantico. It targeted them. A deadly virus—virtually undetectable until it causes death from a million internal cuts. The victims appear random, but Maggie wonders if vengeance isn’t the guiding hand. An aficionado of contemporary killers, using bits and pieces from their crimes—the Beltway Sniper’s phrases, the Unabomber’s clues, the Anthrax Killer’s delivery. Maggie knows dangerous minds, but she must tackle this new opponent from within a biosafety isolation ward—while waiting to see if death is already multiplying inside her body. She just fears her last case might end with the most intelligent killer she’s ever faced escalating from murder…to epidemic. Originally published in 2008

He conveys his thoughts from diverse standpoints: university-based analyst, essayist, satirist and humorist, and practical catalyst for creativity. According to Hau'ofa, only through creative originality in all fields of endeavor can the people of Oceania hope to strengthen their capacity to engage the forces of globalization.

Book excerpt: Healthcare providers are often approached by patients and clients about alternative therapies, whether self-prescribing or wanting to add therapies as an adjunct to the medical treatment they will be receiving. In addition, many healthcare providers plan to incorporate alternative treatments into their practice for a more integrative approach. Whichever the case, it’s important for the healthcare provider to have access to information about alternative and integrative treatments and how they work with standard medical therapies. Answering this need is Natural Standard Medical Conditions Reference: An Integrative Approach, a quick reference book with integrative medicine monographs for more than 100 of the most crucial conditions. This is your best source for comprehensive, evidence-based integrative medicine information, categorized according to evidence and proven efficacy. Covers 100+ of the most commonly seen conditions. Integrated therapies are rated according to whether the scientific evidence is good, unclear or conflicting, slightly negative, or strongly negative. Each monograph ends with a section on prevention, giving tips to help the patient prevent disease/conditions or perhaps avoid recurrence after treatment is finished. Conventional medical treatment is thoroughly explained, as well as lifestyle changes that could benefit the patient. The lead author is a PharmD from The Natural Standard Research Collaboration, which is well respected in both medical and alternative communities.
