      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.

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.
