An einem wolkenlosen Tag in der Karibik verschwindet das Propellerflugzeug mit der 32-jährigen Seismologin Nelly an Bord plötzlich vom Radar. Nach monatelanger Suche werden Trümmerteile in den Wäldern Nicaraguas gefunden. Doch von Nelly weiter keine Spur. Zu Hause in Frankfurt kann ihre Freundin ihr rätselhaftes Verschwinden nicht verwinden. Sie reist nach Managua, quartiert sich in Nellys altem Zimmer ein, liest ihre zurückgelassenen Aufzeichnungen und Tagebücher und spricht mit den Menschen, die mit ihr zu tun hatten, getrieben von einer seltsamen Obsession, die abzulenken scheint von einem Geheimnis in ihrem eigenen Leben. Ihre Suche nach Nelly nimmt mehr und mehr die Züge einer Flucht an. Der Mantel der Erde ist heiß und teilweise geschmolzen ist ein Roman über Fremdheit und Einsamkeit, über private und politische Gefährdungen, ein Roman über den Wunsch, zu verschwinden, und die Hoffnung, gesucht und geborgen zu werden, wenigstens in der Erinnerung, im Gespräch. Denn das Verschwinden setzt vielem ein Ende, nicht aber dem Erzählen.
Multi-drug resistant infections are one of the greatest threats to human health, and with resistance on the rise, appropriate antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) is more important than ever. This book, written by nurses for nurses, provides a clear and concise approach to good practice in this vital area. It explores all aspects of AMS, explaining the practices that ensure the optimal use of antibiotics for the best clinical outcome, with both minimal toxicity to the patient and minimal impact on subsequent antimicrobial resistance. Written by a global team of experts, it covers infection prevention and control, antimicrobial resistance, diagnosis of infection and appropriate antimicrobial use, patient engagement, collaboration between professions and how to implement AMS in nursing practice. The first AMS textbook applied directly to nursing practice, and underpinned by a competency framework designed by the editor team, it includes learning tools such as objectives, practical case studies and questions throughout.
Southern Africa played a varied but vital role in Britain's maritime and imperial stories: it was one of the most intricate pieces in the British imperial strategic jigsaw, and representations of southern African landscape and maritime spaces reflect its multifaceted position. Representing Africa examines the ways in which British travellers, explorers and artists viewed southern Africa in a period of evolving and expanding British interest in the region. Drawing on a wide range of archival sources, contemporary travelogues and visual images, many of which have not previously been published in this context, this book posits landscape as a useful prism through which to view changing British attitudes towards Africa. Richly illustrated, this book will be essential reading for scholars and students interested in British, African, imperial and exploration history, art history, and landscape and environment studies.
