    • The Japanese invaded the Solomon Islands in May 1942 and in July began construction of a large airfield on Guadalcanal. In February 1943, after an epic six-month struggle, they were expelled from the island and it became a staging base for U.S. Admiral William F. Halsey and his South Pacific force. Commanding a powerful force of Navy, Marine Corps, and Army assets as well as land- and carrier-based aircraft, Halsey's mission was to neutralize the Japanese presence in the South Pacific before moving on to Japan itself. As explained and depicted in this fascinating book, the campaign was eventually successful but only after some of the bitterest fighting of World War II. The fanatical opposition called for extreme measures from U.S., British, and Australian land, sea, and air forces. With detailed narrative and captions, the many archival photographs in The War in the South Pacific make for a superb record of this legendary conflict.

    • The concept of the Pulse is the summation and culmination of Dr. John Diamond's forty years of experience in medicine, psychiatry, complementary medicine, the humanities and music. Like the Tao, the Way, it signifies the movement of life from which all things flow.Here, Dr. Diamond applies this concept, encouraging each of us to play the drums to enhance our sense of how the Pulse actually feels. For once we feel this movement in music, we can increasingly feel it in other aspects of life.This book represents a major step forward in our understanding of drumming as a therapeutic modality and life-enhancing practice, for it is knit together by an underlying philosophy that embraces all of music and healing.

      At the time of his death from cancer on 1 March 2001, journalist and broadcaster John Diamond had completed six chapters of what was to be "an uncomplimentary look at the world of complementary medicine". These chapters, based on his own experience and on researched fact, which were emailed each week to his editors at Random House, are both personal and poignant, hard hitting and controversial, tackling the issues raised by alternative medicine with total candour and his usual wit. The second half of this book features some of the best of Diamond's writing, including a selection of emails to colleagues and friends, articles from "The Times" and the "Jewish Chronicle" and other publications, together with excerpts from his final notebook. For seven years he wrote an immensely popular weekly column in "The Times" which, following his diagnosis with cancer, was given over to following the progress of the disease. As well as gaining him a Columnist of the Year award, it resulted in an avalanche of mail from thousands of his readers.

      „Es gibt für jeden Menschen eine kreative Betätigung, die leichter als alle anderen den Zustand des Einsseins, der Freude hervorruft. Wir nennen sie Cantillieren. Unser Streben ist, dieses Cantillieren in den Alltag zu übertragen, so dass unser Leben selbst zum Liebeslied wird. Ich wollte schon immer den Hass der Patienten in Liebe umwandeln. Mir wurde mehr und mehr bewusst, dass es auf nichts anderes ankommt.“

Der Autor zeigt, wie man mit einem einfachen Muskeltest die Lebensenergie einschätzt und störende psychische Faktoren durch positive, heilsame Emotionen ersetzt. Er stellt auch ein kurzes tägliches Affirmationsprogramm vor, mit dem man negative emotionale Zustände ausgleichen und seelische Harmonie finden kann.

    • Wie man seinen Thymus aktiviert und seine Lebensenergie erhöht. Dieses grundlegende Buch bietet eine allgemeine Philosophie sowie Techniken, die nützlich sind, um alle Faktoren zu bewerten, die die Gesundheit des Einzelnen beeinflussen. Dieses Buch ist ein Klassiker seiner Art. Obwohl es wahrscheinlich am besten für seine Diskussion des kinesiologischen Muskeltests bekannt ist, ist es letztendlich wichtiger, zu zeigen, dass Reize, ob physisch oder anders, unsere Lebensenergie ständig zum Besseren oder Schlechteren beeinflussen. Darüber hinaus sind diese Effekte für alle Beobachter tendenziell gleich: Unbewusst beeinflussen dieses Bild, jenes Essen und so weiter uns alle gleich, unabhängig davon, was wir in unserem bewussten Geist denken. Dies ist natürlich eine bemerkenswerte Entdeckung, und die Implikationen davon wurden von Dr. Diamond in vielen seiner nachfolgenden Werke ausführlicher untersucht. Kurz gesagt, dies gehört zu den wichtigsten Gesundheitsbüchern des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts.
