*FINALIST FOR THE 2023 OTTAWA BOOK AWARD* *SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2022 TEMPLER MEDAL FOR BEST BOOK* From Canada’s top war historian, a definitive medical history of the Great War, illuminating how the carnage of modern battle gave birth to revolutionary life-saving innovations. It brings to light shocking revelations of the ways the brutality of combat and the necessity of agonizing battlefield decisions led to unimaginable strain for men and women of medicine who fought to save the lives of soldiers. Medical care in almost all armies during the Great War, and especially in the Canadian medical services, was sophisticated and constantly evolving. Vastly more wounded soldiers were saved than lost. Doctors and surgeons prevented disease from decimating armies, confronted ghastly wounds from chemical weap-ons, remade shattered bodies, and struggled to ease soldiers’ battle-haunted minds. After the war, the hard lessons learned by doctors and nurses were brought back to Canada. A new Department of Health created guidelines in the aftermath of the 1918–1919 influ-enza pandemic, which had killed 55,000 Canadians and millions around the world. In a grim irony, the fight to improve civilian health was furthered by the most destructive war up to that point in human history. But medical advances were not the only thing brought back from Europe: Lifesavers and Body Snatchers exposes the disturbing story of the harvesting of human body parts in medical units behind the lines. Tim Cook has spent over a decade investigating the history of Canadian medical doctors removing the body parts of slain soldiers and transporting their brains, lungs, bones, and other organs to the Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) in London, England. Almost 800 individual body parts were removed from the dead and sent to London, where they were stored, treated, and presented in exhibition galleries. After being exhibited there, the body parts were displayed in Canada. This uncovered history has never been told before and is part of the hidden legacy of the medical war. Based on deep archival research and unpublished letters of soldiers and medical personnel, Lifesavers and Body Snatchers is a powerful narrative, told in Cook’s literary style, which reveals how the medical services supported the soldiers at the front and forged a profound legacy in shaping Canadian public health in the decades that followed.

The essential "lifesaver" that every student of real analysis needs Real analysis is difficult. For most students, in addition to learning new material about real numbers, topology, and sequences, they are also learning to read and write rigorous proofs for the first time. The Real Analysis Lifesaver is an innovative guide that helps students through their first real analysis course while giving them the solid foundation they need for further study in proof-based math. Rather than presenting polished proofs with no explanation of how they were devised, The Real Analysis Lifesaver takes a two-step approach, first showing students how to work backwards to solve the crux of the problem, then showing them how to write it up formally. It takes the time to provide plenty of examples as well as guided "fill in the blanks" exercises to solidify understanding. Newcomers to real analysis can feel like they are drowning in new symbols, concepts, and an entirely new way of thinking about math. Inspired by the popular Calculus Lifesaver, this book is refreshingly straightforward and full of clear explanations, pictures, and humor. It is the lifesaver that every drowning student needs. The essential “lifesaver” companion for any course in real analysis Clear, humorous, and easy-to-read style Teaches students not just what the proofs are, but how to do them—in more than 40 worked-out examples Every new definition is accompanied by examples and important clarifications Features more than 20 “fill in the blanks” exercises to help internalize proof techniques Tried and tested in the classroom

Nothing is more crucial to survival during the dark days ahead than knowing the truth. While lies, evil schemes and frauds increase daily, one book— the Bible— stands in stark opposition to deceit. God’s Word shines as a beacon of light, directing the storm-tossed wayfarer safely to the peaceful shore. LIFESAVER was written to expose the hypocrisy, the abuse of trust and the fatal flaws in modern American Christianity’s most popular and trumpeted position on the end times— the Pre-tribulation rapture (PTR) view. Twenty-five (25) powerful arguments (called “Torpedoes”) are launched from LIFESAVER's pages; each argument sufficient to sink the PTR ship before it invites the innocent to board her for its last, doomed voyage. Without malice, angry rhetoric or unfair personal attacks, chapters such as “The Rapture Isn’t Next,” “Good Fiction,” “Desertion,” and “No Trouble,” dissect the clever speech, remove the façade and expose the holes in an interpretation of prophecy that will not hold water. The only weapon used by LIFESAVER in this war of ideas is Scripture that is rightly interpreted. Though shooting torpedoes at the flaws, fallacies and inaccuracies in the PTR ship must be done, LIFESAVER has another purpose: The author not only goes after the easy-to-target, weak, supporting pillars of PTR, such as “any moment rapture” and “Christians will escape the Tribulation,” but he provides a thoroughly rational and solidly Biblical alternative for Christians to embrace, the Pre-wrath rapture position. What LIFESAVER wants to alert every sincere believer to is that there is a true Biblical “eschatology” (Doctrine of Last Things) that surfaces when objectively utilizing the “Five Basic Rules of Bible Interpretation.” Sadly, because it threatens their power and prestige, knowledge of the Pre-wrath rapture view is the very thing the PTR elite tries to undermine with distortions or attempts to hide by shutting it out of the debate. As time runs out on this present age, the Spirit is awakening those who belong to God. It is time for the saints to understand what is false and what is genuine. Since Christ is coming soon, his people are not only to grasp what he has taught, but to proclaim his plan of salvation that was revealed by the prophets. Deliverance will come to those prepared to weather the most severe challenges that believers of any generation have ever faced. LIFESAVER, alongside the Bible, will help make the difference between catastrophe and triumph, between despair and everlasting joy, or between falling short and being an over-comer. It is time for truth; not feel-good theology. It is time for strong faith. It is time for LIFESAVER!
