    Content: Over 450,000 individuals in the United States have multiple sclerosis. A diagnosis of multiple sclerosis poses potential concerns related to all aspects of life and plans for the future. One of the first responses is usually an active search for information about the disease itself and its potential long-term effects.What Nurses Know . . . Multiple Sclerosisanswers all of those questions and more. Carol Saunders has been an MS nurse and educator for over 25 years, and throughout all of it, she has learned what people need to know and how effectively to communicate it. With education and proper care, most people diagnosed with multiple sclerosis will lead full and productive lives. Special features include numerous sidebars and call-out boxes with "Nurse Notes," as well as definitions of common terms. Also included are resources, online tools, lists of support groups, and specific websites to help those living with MS.

    Content: The Making of Peace represents a fascinating contribution to the study of war: namely, the difficulties that statesmen have confronted in attempting to put back together the pieces after a major conflict. These essays examine how Western belligerents have addressed – or failed to address – the making of peace across a span of two and a half millennia and in contests reflecting a broad range of prompting disputes. Some efforts produced at best a momentary suspension of hostilities. Others transformed the very context of international relations. Defined more modestly, however, as the control and moderation of violence, some peacemaking efforts were notably more successful than others. This study also serves as a first draft of a guide for those who will confront the equally difficult task of maintaining the peace, once achieved. It contains path-breaking essays by leading historians of the United States and the United Kingdom
