The Cancer Chronicles: Unlocking Medicine's Deepest Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 499min
When the woman he loved was diagnosed with a metastatic cancer, science writer George Johnson embarked on a journey to learn everything he could about the disease and the people who dedicate their lives to understanding and combating it. What he discovered is a revolution under way - an explosion of new ideas about what cancer really is and where it comes from. In a provocative and intellectually vibrant exploration, he takes us on an adventure through the history and recent advances of cancer research that will challenge everything you thought you knew about the disease. Deftly excavating and illuminating decades of investigation and analysis, he reveals what we know and don’t know about cancer, showing why a cure remains such a slippery concept. We follow him as he combs through the realms of epidemiology, clinical trials, laboratory experiments, and scientific hypotheses - rooted in every discipline from evolutionary biology to game theory and physics. Cogently extracting fact from a towering canon of myth and hype, he describes tumors that evolve like alien creatures inside the body, paleo-oncologists who uncover petrified tumors clinging to the skeletons of dinosaurs and ancient human ancestors, and the surprising reversals in science’s comprehension of the causes of cancer, with the foods we eat and environmental toxins playing a lesser role. Perhaps most fascinating of all is how cancer borrows natural processes involved in the healing of a wound or the unfolding of a human embryo and turns them, jujitsu-like, against the body. Throughout his pursuit, Johnson clarifies the human experience of cancer with elegiac grace, bearing witness to the punishing gauntlet of consultations, surgeries, targeted therapies, and other treatments. He finds compassion, solace, and community among a vast network of patients and professionals committed to the fight and wrestles to comprehend the cruel randomness cancer metes out in his own family.

Wrestling Price Guide Mixed Martial Arts Edition Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 76min
You get a book about the history of mixed martial arts and MMA figures as well as a mixed martial arts figures price guide combined in one book.MMA, or mixed martial arts, is the hybrid contact sport that combines the best set of techniques from Muay Thai, karate, jujitsu, judo, wrestling, and boxing - just to name a few of the disciplines. Initially, MMA was considered to be a brutal blood sport because of its critics, but it slowly transitioned into a no-holds-barred competition, and it has maintained this persona to date. Nowadays, it has managed to move past 'the fastest-growing spectator sport' title into an internationally recognized and prosperous source of entertainment. You'll find MMA events being sanctioned in so many countries all over the world, along with all 50 states of the US.Action figures aren't only for kids now. Popular shows like The Toys that Made Us illustrated the effect these collectibles have on cultures and people in recent times. This is why it is difficult to deny the fact that adults may drool over MMA action figures just as children would. Now, we aren't saying every MMA toy has achieved the status of a collector's item. We're trying to tell you that the ultimate collector's items are those that have managed to become somewhat of a modern cult phenomenon. So much so that there are already multiple fan groups across a wide array of international markets for these collectibles.What some people may see as lumps of plastic are actually sources of joy and nostalgia for the millions of UFC fans out there. All of these people would agree that each of these items qualifies as a great trade-off for all the memories that were made on the mats and the octagon. ungekürzt. Language: English.

I started my martial arts training in 1969 and attained an eighth degree black belt with my first instructor. I've trained in Kenpo, Chin-na, Jujitsu, Judo, Tai Chi, and much more. With almost 50 years of training people how to defend themselves, I've learned that the most important skill to learn is how to recognize a threat. Experiences gained from encounters with skilled and unskilled people over the last century have provided me with a keen awareness of what to look for. In this book, you will learn how to recognize a threat from those who have 'been there and done that'. You will learn from their personal mistakes, including situations where they have become the victim and how they put themselves there. I will teach you how to recognize what a threat is and and most importantly how to avoid them. You will learn the three aspects that combine to make a credible threat - means, opportunity, and intent. You will gain an understanding of what to look for and what could have been done to avoid that threat. You will discover how to open your awareness so you can avoid putting yourself and your loved ones at risk. You will become aware of things you would never realize could put you at risk.
