In an alternate Britain, an immersive theatre like no other unravels a mystery from beyond the grave. Perfect for fans of Black Mirror. In a Britain akin to this one, Vincent Rice falls off a ladder, literally at Petra Orff’s feet. They introduce themselves, and immigrant Petra senses a kindred spirit in Vincent’s complex sense of home. He offers to take her to Metamuse, an alternative theatre experience like no other that he won tickets to in a competition he doesn’t remember entering. The first show leaves them besotted with each other; the second is far more disturbing. Inexplicable occurrences pile on top of one another, all connected to the mysterious Metamuse. Only Petra can see the web of sinister coincidences surrounding them both and, with injustices both past and present weighing on her mind, she begins to wonder if Metamuse is more than just a show…

A whole body plethysmograph has been incorporated in an apparatus for exposing dogs individually to radioactive aerosols. This makes it possible to monitor the dog's respiratory pattern during the exposure without the use of any respiratory masks or valves. After three different transducer systems were evaluated for use with the plethysmograph, the flow rate transducer was chosen for several reasons including the fact that this system produces inspiratory and expiratory flow rate data as well as tidal volume and respiratory rate information. The aerosol is continuously produced and drawn past the dog's nose during the exposure period and provision has been made for quantification of the aerosol in terms of concentration and particle size distribution for each experiment. External contamination of the dog is minimal since only the nostril area is uncovered within the aerosol exposure chamber. Pertinent design and calibration features are discussed.

In the early 1980s, two water-supply systems on the Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune in North Carolina were found to be contaminated with the industrial solvents trichloroethylene (TCE) and perchloroethylene (PCE). The water systems were supplied by the Tarawa Terrace and Hadnot Point watertreatment plants, which served enlisted-family housing, barracks for unmarried service personnel, base administrative offices, schools, and recreational areas. The Hadnot Point water system also served the base hospital and an industrial area and supplied water to housing on the Holcomb Boulevard water system (full-time until 1972 and periodically thereafter). This book examines what is known about the contamination of the water supplies at Camp Lejeune and whether the contamination can be linked to any adverse health outcomes in former residents and workers at the base.
