Dr. Earl Garnet encounters a deadly bacteria at University Hospital—one that is killing victims who are in some way connected. A nurse dies horrifically and Dr. Garnet’s own wife is gravely ill. While the surrounding community panics, the staff is quarantined—most likely with the sociopath who has masterminded the super-resistant strain and who promises to infect fifty more people immediately. Medical Thriller by Peter Clement; originally published by Fawcett

A remarkable cat. A special gift. A life-changing journey. They thought he was just a cat. When Oscar arrived at the Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Rhode Island he was a cute little guy with attitude. He loved to stretch out in a puddle of sunlight and chase his tail until he was dizzy. Occasionally he consented to a scratch behind the ears, but only when it suited him. In other words, he was a typical cat. Or so it seemed. It wasn't long before Oscar had created something of a stir. Apparently, this ordinary cat possesses an extraordinary gift: he knows instinctively when the end of life is near. Oscar is a welcome distraction for the residents of Steere House, many of whom are living with Alzheimer's. But he never spends much time with them -- until they are in their last hours. Then, as if this were his job, Oscar strides purposely into a patient's room, curls up on the bed, and begins his vigil. Oscar provides comfort and companionship when people need him most. And his presence lets caregivers and loved ones know that it's time to say good-bye. Oscar's gift is a tender mercy. He teaches by example: embracing moments of life that so many of us shy away from. Making Rounds with Oscar is the story of an unusual cat, the patients he serves, their caregivers, and of one doctor who learned how to listen. Heartfelt, inspiring, and full of humor and pathos, this book allows readers to take a walk into a world rarely seen from the outside, a world we often misunderstand.

"Heartpounding suspense," hailed Entertainment Weekly of Peter Clement's first medical thriller, Lethal Practice. Now the former ER physician has done it again--combining his technical expertise with a page-burning plot to create a chillingly plausible novel of suspense. With authentic detail and a surgeon's precision, Clement captures the tense, electrifying atmosphere of a big city hospital turned into a flash point. For in Fatal Medicine, one threat is more dangerous than contagion: the threat of human beings deciding who should live and who should die. . . . Death is a daily, sometimes hourly, occurrence at St. Vincent's Hospital in Buffalo, New York. Now, in his pressure cooker career, Dr. Earl Garnet has broken the cardinal rule of modern medicine: he publicly blames a powerful HMO for practicing "no-fault murder" in the death of an eighteen-month-old baby. The HMO swiftly strikes back, igniting a debilitating boycott of the hospital. But after several accidents nearly cost patients their lives, the true bloodletting begins. A doctor is found sprawled out in the parking lot, his throat cut ear to ear. Blamed for instigating the chaos, Earl Garnet knows that he faces more than a deadly power play. The doctor may have uncovered a conspiracy reaching from the halls of one of the nation's most influential HMOs to a small, experimental clinic in Mexico, where yet another of his patients went for treatment and disappeared. To find answers, Garnet must wade deep into the murky, surreal workings of today's health care industry. Smart, tough, crackling with suspense, and vivid in its hospital setting, this visionary novel instantly places Peter Clement in the distinguished company of Michael Palmer and Robin Cook. Make no mistake: The Procedure is the work of a first-rate physician and an absolutely brilliant storyteller.

Loring and Rounds: A Trustee's Handbook (2022) is an invaluable practical resource that addresses the rights, duties, and obligations of the parties once the trustee takes title to trust property. This Handbook steers you through this complex field, providing property owners with a mechanism for seeing to the needs of beneficiaries in cost-effective, creative, efficient, and flexible ways. Loring and Rounds: A Trustee's Handbook (2022) is a handy, ready reference, and a gateway to the treatises, restatements, law review articles, uniform statutes, and cases you need to know. This fully integrated and bound volume of the Handbook brings you up to date on the latest cases, statutes, and developments, as well as new or updated discussion of topics as follow: The Handbook continues the lengthy process of pruning some of the deadwood; significant exposition has been cut, revised, or combined. In sum, the Handbook is now even leaner, meaner, and more usable than ever. In addition, numerous new cases and secondary sources have been added. These include the following: In the 2022 Edition, there are 91 judicial-decision references and 186 footnotes that were not in the 2021 Edition. Forty pre-existing footnotes have been revised along with their accompanying texts. There has been a major across-the-board expansion, re-organization, renovation, consolidation, coordination, and updating of the content devoted to the intersection of trust law and constitutional (U.S.) law. We have, for example, opened up a whole new section devoted entirely to relevant taking and due process jurisprudence. See §5.3.1A and its sub-sections. The Handbook's treatment of the Domestic Asset Protection Trust (DAPT) has been beefed up and consolidated in §9.28. While the Handbook has had much to say about the equitable doctrine of unclean hands as it pertains to trustee conduct, there has been little on its applicability to beneficiary conduct. This oversight has been corrected. See §§ 5.5 & 7.1.9. All this, and much more is included in the 2022 Edition of the Handbook.

None of us could survive in the workplace, community, or even in our homes, if we allowed everyone to see how truly vulnerable we are. Yet, social support is a necessity if we are to achieve whatever it is we set out to achieve in this life. "No human being is an island unto himself." "Social Support: A Reflection of Humanity" is a "how to" book. In this work, the authors examine the nature of social support, how it can be offered, and how social support differs from other forms of therapy.

"Second century apocryphal Christian texts are Christian fiction: they draw on the motifs of contemporary pagan stories of romance, travel and adventure to entertain their readers, but also to explore what it means to be Christian. The Thecla episodein the Apocryphal Acts of Paul recounts the conversion of a young pagan woman, her rejection of marriage, her narrow escapes from martyrdom and the end of her story as an independent, ascetic evangelist. In Thecla's Devotion, J.D. McLarty reads the Thecla episode against a paradigm pagan romance, Callirhoe: for both texts the passions are key to the unfolding of the plot - how are unruly emotions to be managed and controlled? The pagan would answer, 'through reason'. This study uses the portrayal of emotion within character and plot to explore the response of the Thecla episode to this key question for Christian identity formation."
