Singing vicars, baby whisperers, divas, deviants and more. Find out what really happens behind the closed doors of labour rooms, on inpatient wards, during outpatients clinics and inside homes. Special Deliveries is filled with stories about home births, outdoor births, water births, hospital births and other life changing moments that will appeal to anyone with an interest in pregnancy and childbirth.
Identifying factors and events have been altered so that all the stories within this book, although based on elements of factual midwifery practice, have been fictionalised in order to maintain the anonymity and / or confidentiality of those the author cared for and worked with throughout the years.
"Special Deliveries is a wonderful collection of stories that pull the reader through a gamut of emotions from start to finish, given all the more impact by the fact the stories are about what really happens behind the closed doors of delivery rooms. From the sadness of the butterfly baby to the joy of a healthy newborn, each one is indeed a very special delivery." Clare Christian, The Book Guru.
"D.J. Kirkby writes with compassion and energy, creating characters you really care about." Sarah Salway, Canterbury Poet Laureate.

Описание: Abstract: The Everglades is a unique wetland ecosystem. During this century, the ecosystem has been partitioned for disparate uses of human habitation, agriculture, water conservation and ecosystem conservation in a national park. The sustainability of Everglades National Park is dependent upon upstream water sources. Water management in the Everglades and water deliveries to the Park are linked to human perceptions of ecosystem dynamics. One line of inquiry used expansion of a state-of-the-art computer model to examine the upstream area that once contributed water to the Park. Linkages between vegetation and hydrology were added as vegetation mediation of evapotranspiration and flow and hydrologically induced vegetation changes, but neither addition appreciably improve understanding of hydrodynamics in the Everglades system at the scale of the model. Prior to management, the entire system, south of Lake Okeechobee, contributed flow to Everglades Park except during dry years. Since the onset of intensive water management, an equivalent area of only about one-third of the historic drainage basin has supplied water into the Park. But these conclusions are dependent upon the assumptions made to represent the system at a specific spatial-temporal scale in a model. At other scales the conclusions could well be different. That led to the second major topic of this thesis; that of cross-scale structure and dynamics. A cross-scale mode of inquiry suggests that ecosystems exhibit discontinuities in spatial structures and temporal patterns across time and space due to the interaction of key processes operating over different scale ranges. Spatial patterns in the topography, vegetation and fire data sets exhibited scale regions of self-similarity separated by distinct breaks. Temporal patterns of rainfall, stage, flow, evaporation and sea-level exhibited multiple cycles. These analyses support the theory that ecosystems are structured around a few keystone variables of mixed spatial and temporal dimensions. Dramatic discontinuities appear in patterns as a result of the interactions of processes operating at different space and time domains. This emerging viewpoint of ecosystem structure and dynamics will hopefully provide a basis for new understanding and hence improved management of this unique ecosystem.

Nothing could make Paul Jackson feel more alive than launching skyward with silver wings slicing through an intolerably beautiful landscape. Operating an air charter company with only one airplane is challenging at the best of times, but for Paul, the daily rigours of bush flying are overshadowed by his passion for flight. Unhindered by slim profit margins, Paul and longtime friend Dave McMurray rarely pass up the opportunity to journey aloft, risking all to appease a fledgling clientele.
On a spur-of-the-moment request, Paul hastily agrees to fly an important load of cargo to a rustic hideaway nestled in the shoreline of a picturesque mountain lake. As lodge owner Jack Ward awaits his delivery, poor weather not only threatens his plans to promote his resort, but Jack quickly discovers that certain things in his methodical life are simply beyond his control.
Paul's compulsive need to keep his plane airborne and provide for his family supersedes his moral compass. As the wheels lift from the patchy asphalt runway, Paul starts to consider the ramifications of his decisions, including the possible end to a career he loves and the inevitable reality of hurting those he cares about the most.
When multiple challenges arise in a short window of time, Paul and Dave must work together to not only preserve their livelihood, but also, quite possibly, their lives. In the process, Paul is forced to realign priorities, wrestle with life's unpredictability, and come to terms with the idea that a flight today is no guarantee of wings in the air tomorrow.
