DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Yolanda Moscowitz is the heroine of this remarkable novel - a seventy-six year old retired school teacher who is suddenly crippled by a fall and finds herself recuperating in a Tel Aviv home for the aged. There she is surrounded by a rich carnival of characters: the uncaring head nurse ("Satana"), a harsh disciplinarian who is Yolanda's nemesis; Leon, the oily orderly who flirts with Yolanda, hints at the possibility of a sexual liaison, and connives to get her money; Adela, the masseuse who is more interested in Yolanda's property than her body; innocent Allegra, who performs menial tasks for Yolanda and whose girlish body is diseased from within; Kagan, the Russian-born, alcoholic artist whose legs have been crushed by a bus and who romances Yolanda with French poetry; and Wolfe, the religious widower who, through rotting teeth, begs Yolanda to marry him so that he may rid himself of the prurient erotic fantasies which torment him." "Yolanda struggles to maintain her dignity and her affection among these seducers, betrayers, fake healers, shysters, would-be lovers - a Fellini-like pageantry. Feeling trapped in her new community, she also feels a certain safety. Still, she dreams of returning to the peace of her city apartment, at the same time fearing her dream might come true. And when it does...." "Like Thomas Mann's Magic Mountain, Kenaz's old age home offers an entire society within a single unique location, a world of its own that awaits us all. And with a keen eye and broad vision, Kenaz shows the inner-workings of aging - its daily battles, its follies, its despairs, its small victories and surprising humors. It is a world at once painful, beautiful, and memorable - vividly memorable."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCats have been popular household pets for thousands of years, and their numbers only continue to rise. Today there are three cats for every dog on the planet, and yet cats remain more mysterious, even to their most adoring owners. Unlike dogs, cats evolved as solitary hunters, and, while many have learned to live alongside humans and even feel affection for us, they still don’t quite “get us” the way dogs do, and perhaps they never will. But cats have rich emotional lives that we need to respect and understand if they are to thrive in our company. In Cat Sense, renowned anthrozoologist John Bradshaw takes us further into the mind of the domestic cat than ever before, using cutting-edge scientific research to dispel the myths and explain the true nature of our feline friends. Tracing the cat’s evolution from lone predator to domesticated companion, Bradshaw shows that although cats and humans have been living together for at least eight thousand years, cats remain independent, predatory, and wary of contact with their own kind, qualities that often clash with our modern lifestyles. Cats still have three out of four paws firmly planted in the wild, and within only a few generations can easily revert back to the independent way of life that was the exclusive preserve of their predecessors some 10,000 years ago. Cats are astonishingly flexible, and given the right environment they can adapt to a life of domesticity with their owners—but to continue do so, they will increasingly need our help. If we’re to live in harmony with our cats, Bradshaw explains, we first need to understand their inherited quirks: understanding their body language, keeping their environments—however small—sufficiently interesting, and becoming more proactive in managing both their natural hunting instincts and their relationships with other cats. A must-read for any cat lover, Cat Sense offers humane, penetrating insights about the domestic cat that challenge our most basic assumptions and promise to dramatically improve our pets’ lives—and ours.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt's about time we had a book like this. Michelle Bernard has a rare gift for putting in plain words extraordinarily effective and levelheaded ways to properly care for cats. Steering clear of faddish, dangerous trends-and dissecting the oodles of misinformation that has regrettably become the norm in mainstream advice on animal nutrition-she shines most conspicuously on the issue of a proper feline diet. By giving the reader a common-sense, straightforward strategy for preparing a diet that is based solely on the nutritional requirements of true carnivores, her book is a must-have for anyone committed to building and maintaining glowing good health for cats. Bernard's work on all aspects of caring naturally for cats is based on years of meticulous research and hands-on experience, yet she translates her knowledge into simple, common sense guidelines that anyone can understand and put to use. Her eloquent explanation of homeopathy demystifies this splendid, ancient healing art that is so marvelously suited to cats, giving the reader a valuable awareness about how to build and nurture a cat's health from the inside out. This alone is a refreshing and most welcome approach given the routine over-medication and over-vaccination of cats. If you love your cat, read this book. All of it.
