Listen! Your baby is telling you something… After nine peaceful months in the womb, the world can be an overwhelming place for a newborn. Like a little sponge, your child will soak in every bit of sensory stimulation presented, whether he wants to or not—everything from the soft cotton of your shirt to the bright lights in the grocery store. Overload, when it happens, means a fussy baby—but in this revolutionary book, occupational therapist Megan Faure and nursing specialist Ann Richardson explain how you can help your newborn cope with his new environment. 
This extraordinary guide to your baby’s developing nervous system and his sensory world explains in down-to-earth language how parents can: 
Tune in to a baby’s cries and other signals 
Respond to a baby’s needs 
Prevent colicky late-day crying 
Provide the right stimulation—at the right time 
Offer positive sensory experiences early on Offering age-appropriate advice on sleeping, eating, and early learning, as well as the basic sensory principles, Baby Sense is the perfect tool for every parent who has every wondered why a baby is crying—and how to soothe him.

You've heard of hospice care, but you prefer not to think about it. Dying is such an uncomfortable topic, we all avoid it. In ignorance, we fear the worst. This book will change your whole view. Taking you behind the scenes of end-of-life care, you will see the enormous efforts of nurses, doctors, chaplains and others - even a thoughtful cook - to provide the calm that we all hope for. Perhaps you are looking for end-of-life care for someone you love. Perhaps you are wondering if this is the job for you. Or you just feel like being inspired by humanity at its best. This book will be for you. HIGHLY COMMENDED by the British Medical Association, 2008 "An easy-to-read book, which will surprise many readers with its lightness of touch, humanity and refreshing tone. I would recommend it to anyone who has worries about their own or a relative's care at the end of life."

Life in a Hospice: Reflections on Caring for the Dying

Ann Richardson

They are young and they have a life-threatening disease... The year is 1991. Diagnoses of HIV are rising and there is no cure in sight. Coming from all corners of the world, over forty young men and women talk about living with HIV and AIDS. They must cope with the enormous stigma, blame and guilt associated with the disease. And there are challenges in telling their parents and partners, trying to keep healthy and looking for work - all while facing an inevitably shortened future. Yet they remain committed to celebrating the joys of life as much as they can. The book is testimony to the resilience of the human spirit. "This collection of true stories is as powerful as any great classic of fiction. Everyone who reads Wise Before Their Time will come face to face with the greatest challenge of our age." Sir Ian McKellen

End of life care at its best 
Dying, it’s an uncomfortable topic. None of us likes to think about what our last days will be like. But if we do think about them at all, we want them to be full of peace and tranquillity, with the chance to say proper goodbyes to those we love. Life in a Hospice takes you behind the scenes in end-of-life care, where you will see the enormous efforts of nurses, doctors, chaplains and others - even a thoughtful cook - to provide the calm that we all hope for. 
Perhaps you are looking for end-of-life care for someone you love. Perhaps you are wondering if this is the job for you. Or you just feel like being inspired by humanity at its best. This book will be for you.
