Tales from a Young Vet: Mad cows, crazy kittens, and all creatures big and small
￥61.51
The funny, touching and entertaining story of how Jo Hardy, the star of BBC2’s Young Vets, gets to grips with animals big and small, friendly and not-at-all-happy, on the road to becoming a fully qualified vet. ‘Stand well clear. Keep your eyes on them. Oh, and make sure you have insurance.’ Not the most comforting words of wisdom, but probably the most useful for a trainee vet, Jo would say. From well-equipped surgeries to windswept hills and ramshackle barns, Jo has to be able to diagnose and treat any animal, at any time of the day or night. It’s not quite as easy as James Herriot made it seem. Jo’s final year of training saw her race from rectal examinations of cows to spine surgery on a Great Dane, and from treating an eventing horse with a heart problem to inserting a contraceptive implant into a monkey. And then there were the owners – the tough guy who sobbed when his cat was diagnosed with cancer, the woman who was convinced her dog was embarrassed by its stomach upset, and the farmer who loved his cows as much as anyone loves their pets. Gruelling days of animal treatments and visits combined with long nights of study and revision made Jo’s final year of training the most demanding and rewarding year of her life. Her book tells of the highs and lows, the pets that stole her heart, and the lifelong friends that she made – with two legs and four.

The Theory of Death (Peter Decker and Rina Lazarus Crime Thrillers)
￥61.51
Now living in upstate New York, former LAPD lieutenant Peter Decker is plunged into a bizarre web involving academia, underworld crime, and calculating killers in this compulsive novel in New York Times bestselling author Faye Kellerman's beloved Decker and Lazarus series. Former LAPD lieutenant Peter Decker is relishing the quiet and slow pace of his new job with the Greenbury police department. The work is low stress and engaging, and it's been almost a year since the last murder in this sleepy upstate New York town. Then the body of a nude man is found deep within the woods, shattering Decker's peace. The death appears to be a suicide--a single shot to the head, the gun by his side. But until the coroner's ruling, the scene must be treated as a suspicious crime. Without any personal effects near the body, Decker must dig to uncover his identity, a task made difficult by the department's tight budget and limited personnel. Luckily, Decker gets some unexpected help when his friend and former Greenbury colleague Tyler McAdams calls, looking for a quiet place to study for his law finals. The investigation takes Decker and McAdams to Kneed Loft College, where they must penetrate the indecipherable upper echelons of mathematics and mathematical prodigies. Beneath the school's rarified atmosphere they discover a sphere of scheming academics, hidden cyphers--and most dangerous of all--a realm of underworld crime that transforms harmless nerds into cold, calculating evil geniuses. It will take all of Decker's experience and McAdams's brains to penetrate enigmatic formulas and codes and solve a dark, twisted crime devised by some brilliant and depraved masterminds.

Az ember egyik legnagyobb kincse az emlékezés. Egy olyan nyugdíjas korú írogatónak pedig, mint a k?nyv szerz?je, már rengeteg kincs van a birtokában, hiszen alig van a jelennek olyan eseménye, amely ne juttatná eszébe a múltat. Olyan múltat, amelyet meg lehet osztani az olvasóval. A múltat el?hívó esemény lehet akár egy jégcsap megpillantása, vagy egy hír valamely disznótorról, vagy akár az unoka meseigénye, mosolya. Lehet egy szilveszteri hangulat, vagy egy a padon ül? hajléktalan, s?t, akár egy a forgalmas járdán sürg?l?d? énekesmadár, vagy egy korsóból a f?ldre l?ttyintett víz, szóval bármi, amely megragadja a figyelmet. Mindegyikük emlékeket, gondolatokat ébresztett a szerz?ben, és ezzel t?rténeteket szült. A k?nyvben t?bb t?rténet szerepel. Olyan t?rténetek, amelyek nemcsak a szerz?nek, de bárkinek segíthetnek a jelen gondjai, nehézségei k?nnyebb elviselésében. A t?rténetek ugyanis szerteágazóak, így bárki találhat k?z?ttük a gondjait (még, ha r?vid id?re is, de) elfeledtet? olvasnivalót. A gondolatok persze néha magvasak, nehezebben emészthet?k, a legt?bbsz?r viszont meseszer?ek, adomázóak, k?nnyen elsajátíthatók. ?ppen olyan változatosak, mint maga az élet, hiszen ki ne várná izgatottan az ismeretlent, a holnapot, a j?v?t, amely mindig hozhat valami újat, váratlant, és amely mindig el tud varázsolni bennünket.
