Описание: *** WINNER: Self-Published Book of the Year 2014 *** Why do mums stay at home and dads go to work? Why do women treat men like idiots around babies? Where are all the new fathers we hear so much about? When he became a dad, Gideon Burrows didn't realise other men didn't do an equal share, or that he could have got away with doing far less. On his journey to fairer fatherhood he encountered dismissive midwives and father phobic workplaces, fanciful media stereotypes and patronising playgroup mums. In this controversial, frank and funny parenting memoir, Gideon Burrows discovers the real reason men don't do childcare. And what we should all do about it. Not your traditional daddy to be book On its search for answers, Men Can Do It reveals deeply ingrained fatherhood stereotypes, the role of the media, parenting books and celebrities, the politics of men and childcare, pregnancy and dads, and problematic paternity and parental leave legislation. It questions women's attitude towards fathers, sceptical mums at playgroups and pre-schools, old fashioned employers and society's outdated attitudes to what fatherhood should be all about. A book for fathers... and for mothers Men Can Do It would make an ideal gift for a new dad or new mum (or a dad or mum to be). It offers a welcome antidote to the pastel-coloured, soft-focussed baby books that just don't ring true, and the madcap dad memoirs that just reinforce the idea that men are idiots around babies. Revealing and challenging, but funny too, Men Can Do It shows what good parenting really can be in a modern world. A note from the author... I hope this book will show parents the how and why of a fairer parenting deal. I hope it will provide inspiration to those who would like to do it, evidence for those who need to be convinced it is right and possible, argument for those who aren't convinced it's a problem, and practical ideas for those who just don t know how to go about it. Please do reserve your copy now. I hope you enjoy the book Gideon Burrows

Описание: Change your diet. Think positive and you'll live. Doctors aren't always right. Get some experimental treatment. Watch this YouTube video. Read this article. Visit this website. It's the chemo that'll kill you, not the cancer.
There's always a chance.
There's always hope.
There's no harm in trying...
When Gideon Burrows was diagnosed with an incurable brain tumour, he found himself in the cancer twilight zone: a place where hope and wellbeing are exalted, and where truth and rationality are sometimes optional extras.
It's a world where the dying are always bravely battling, survivors are venerated and where charities and wellness gurus are beyond criticism. It's a place of miracle diets, self-healing and positive thinking.
When there are so many contradicting opinions and so much background noise, how do you separate the sane from the sound? How do you make decisions that are wise rather than wishful thinking?
This book challenges the very foundations of how we respond to the disease. It will make you angry, it may make you cry. It will make you feel hopeful and hopeless in equal measure.

"I found this book very useful in helping me understand this type of brain tumour, it's impact on the sufferer and the way it is treated.

A word from the author, Gideon Burrows:
"This book is a guide to adult glioblastoma and anaplastic astrocytoma for patients and their loved ones. The two brain tumours that are considered to have short life expectancies, and life changing effects before, during and after any treatment. Through offering basic medical information about brain cancer, as well as information about treatment options, prognosis and impact, I hope to help those affected to understand these brain tumours as best they can.
"I hope to arm you with information that will form the basis for further research, for questions to oncologists, surgeons, doctors and support organisations. And I hope to illustrate, as best I can, what life and perhaps death can be like with these brain tumours.
"Some of what I have to share, and the very real and generously shared stories of others who have been affected, you will find helpful. Some you won't. Some information you may know, much you will not. There are parts that some of you may not wish to know or face, while others will crave every word on every page.
"Whatever you take away from this book, I hope to provide you with some support, knowledge and empowerment."
