Per is Dying

Per Fugelli

Pillment

Niels Christian Geelmuyden

In Pillment, Niels Chr. Geelmuyden poses awareness-raising and flashy questions about drug use, research results, how common medications work and the pharmaceutical industry's working methods. What do our most common medicines actually contain? Blood pressure medications, statins and painkillers? Who approves them, and how do they work? The global pharmaceutical industry's turnover is approaching $13 billion a year. It should therefore be well equipped to work on behalf of people's health. But does it? asks the author. Read this book and acquire the knowledge you need to ask your doctor all the right questions, whether you need a painkiller now and then or have to use medicine every day. Read it for the sake of your own health! Dr. Charlotte J. Haug was a consultant for the book and, in collaboration with the author, provided good advice on prevention, self-help and safer medicine use. Haug holds a Ph.D. in immunology and infectious diseases and a master's degree in healthcare research from Stanford University. The dubious sides of extensive pill-poppingGeelmuydens elegance, subtleties and humour are of good help when reading this book. And still there are few books I have read and reviewed through the last 20 years, that I feel should be read with a greater seriousness.…The layman Geelmuyden has - on behalf of all us other laymen that might be worried about the scope of publically authorized and partially financed overuse of medicines - done a formidable job in penetrating and illuminating this rather dark landscape.…It should also be mentioned that we in this book meet the playful writer in a more serious and careful tone of voice. He is careful to balance the information and give room for the contradicting scientific results, letting the reader make up their own mind.AFTENPOSTENWhat do you know about the medicines you prescribe?Geelmuyden has done solid work to gather and adapt this content for a wide audience. ... All in all, this is a book that is worth while the read, and I really hope that the information it contains will echo through Doctor´s-offices all over. It is a must read for "difficult" patients and pill-sceptical nurses. SYKEPLEIEN

The Journey to Bretton Woods

Maria Berg Reinertsen

Early one summers day of 1944, a small group of economists set to sea. Their wish was to create a better world. In their wake, London was getting over the first attack performed with the VI – the flying bomb – Hitlers new super weapon. Under the deck of the boat 2000 German war prisoners from the landing at Normandy was kept. On the bridge, Commodore Bisset, the English commercial fleets biggest hero. Ahead of them all – seven days at sea, journeying to the Bretton Woods-conference in the US. Reinertsen tells the tale about the boat journey that would lay the grounds for world economy the way we know it in our time, 70 years later. During the crossing the travellers drafted what would become IMF and The World Bank, while The Queen Mary was criss-crossing to avoid German submarines. Because of the war, the Atlantic more or less vast and empty, apart from the group of economists on deck discussing rules and deprecation of currencies. This journey at sea becomes a prism to describe the past – what was it that lead the way to Bretton Woods? – And for the future: What was the effect it had on the world in the half century that followed, and what traces can we still see today?

SEPP

Nina Kristin Nilsen

In Sepp, Nina Kristin Nilsen writes about one of the most exciting destinies in Norwegian emigration history. Leonhard Seppala was of Kven lineage – from Skibotn in Troms. He emigrated to the United States in 1900, during the gold rush in Alaska. Nilsen writes about this era, the gold miners, immigrants and life in the Arctic in a way that will leave the reader breathless. But Seppala's greatest claim to fame (in his time, he was one of America's best known people) didn't come from gold mining, but from dog mushing. When the small gold mining community of Nome – on the furthest west coast of Alaska, by the Barents Sea – was struck by a diphtheria epidemic, it couldn't be reached by neither boat nor plane. It was mid-winter, with temperatures down to 45 degrees below zero and winds of over 35 m/s. In a sled relay that was followed by all of the United States via telegraph lines, the dog teams struggled through the Arctic tundra – and when they reached their destination, a new set of heroes was born.

We’ll Talk Next Week

Ellen Sofie Lauritzen

"We´ll talk next week" he said. And went silent. When Ellen Sofie Lauritzen reluctantly decides to give the dating-app Tinder a chance, a brand new world opens. A world where you can always swipe your way to your next date, and where the access to new and interesting people is never ending. But she soon finds out that the Tinder-life also has a dark side. The alternatives are so many, and the next date always seems more alluring than the one you are on. And dumping someone never seems to create any consequences. Not for her, her friends or the men they meet. Lauritzen gives us a humoristic and honest look at a young woman´s year as an app-dater. She tells stories - her own and those of others - about anything from fateful profile pictures and catastrophic choices of pick-up-lines, to double gaming, harassment, date-rape-drugs and deceit. And some stories about actually finding real love. "We´ll talk next week" is a friend for those who lie awake at night swiping, and a liberatingly recognizable book for those who have tried to find the right one.
