Injury Time
The publication of Clive James's Sentenced to Life was a major literary event.Facing the end, James looked back over his life with a clear-eyed and unflinching honesty to produce his finest work: poems of extraordinary power that spoke to our most elemental emotions.Injury Time is its outstanding successor. 'James's confrontation with his approaching death is nothing short of inspirational' – Joan Bakewell, IndependentWith more time on the clock than he had anticipated, Clive James was all the more determined to use it wisely – to capture the treasurable moment, and think about how best to live his remaining days – while the sense of his own impending absence grew all the more powerfully acute.In a series of intimate poems – from childhood memories of his mother, to a vision of his granddaughter in graceful acrobatic flight – James declares 'family' to be our greatest blessing.He also writes beautifully of the Australia where he began his life, and where he hopes to 'reach the end'.Throughout Injury Time, James weaves poems which reflect on the consolation and wisdom to be found in the art, music and books which have become ever more precious to him in his last years. Moving, inspirational and unsentimental, Injury Time is as accomplished as any of his works; even at the end, he was in the form of his life. Clive James (1939–2019) was a broadcaster, critic, poet, memoirist and novelist.His acclaimed poetry includes the collection Sentenced to Life and a translation of Dante's The Divine Comedy, both Sunday Times bestsellers.His passion for and knowledge of poetry are distilled in his book of criticism on the subject, Poetry Notebook, and, written in the last year of his life, his personal annotated anthology of favourite poems, The Fire Of Joy.Praise for Clive James:'He will be seen, I think, as one of the most important and influential writers of our time' – Bryan Appleyard, Sunday Times'Wise, witty, terrifying, unflinching and extraordinarily alive' – A.S.Byatt, critic and author of Possession: A Romance'Clive James is a true poet' – Peter Porter, London Review of Books

Is this injury serious?
It is difficult to determine the seriousness of an injury without more information. Factors such as the type of injury, the extent of the damage, and the individual's overall health and medical history all play a role in assessing the seriousness of an injury. It is important to seek medical attention to properly evaluate and treat the injury.

Is the injury serious?
Without more information about the injury, it is difficult to determine its severity. It would be best to consult a medical professional for an accurate assessment of the injury. If the injury is causing significant pain, swelling, or limited mobility, it may be considered serious and should be evaluated by a doctor as soon as possible.

How does a suspensory ligament injury or tendon injury occur during galloping?
During galloping, the suspensory ligament or tendon can become injured due to the repetitive stress and strain placed on these structures. The high impact and force generated during galloping can cause micro-tears or inflammation in the ligament or tendon. Additionally, sudden changes in speed or direction while galloping can also contribute to the risk of injury. Poor conditioning, improper hoof balance, or underlying conformational issues can further increase the likelihood of a suspensory ligament or tendon injury during galloping.

Injury Time : A Novel
'One of the best football books I've ever read.' John Motson on Provided You Don't Kiss Me'Some people believe football is a matter of life and death.I am very disappointed by that attitude. I can assure you it's much more important than that' - Bill ShanklyWhat Shankly said isn't even half-true.In fact, it's bollocks. Football isn't the be-all and end-all of everything.If nothing else, I know that much. As a player, Thom Callaghan was defined by the winning goal he scored in an FA Cup final.The goal wasn't the blessing he imagined it would be.His whole career was defined by that brief moment of glory. With his playing days over, Callaghan, still a local hero, is tempted back to his old club as caretaker manager.His task to rescue it from relegation. He's got the job solely on the recommendation of his former boss and mentor Frank Mallory, now desperately ill and responsible for the team's precipitous decline. Callaghan is pitched into the Premier League during the last months of the 1996-1997 season, where - among reputations more gilded than his own - he finds himself pitted against the likes of Alex Ferguson's Manchester United, chasing their fourth title in five years, and also one of the newest recruits to the English game, Arsene Wenger. Can Callaghan save his club from what seems the inevitability of the drop?Does Mallory - eccentric, inspirational and manipulative - even want him to succeed?What if the prize of a personal triumph isn't worth it in the end?Injury Time is the first novel from the multiple award-winning sportswriter Duncan Hamilton.

Sleep and Brain Injury
This ground-breaking book binds together a contemporary understanding of sleep and brain injury, pairing empirical understanding through clinical practice with extensive up-to-date research, to provide a deeply considered approach to these overlapping topics.Firstly, the author discusses the neuroanatomy and architecture of sleep, including the need for sleep, definitions of good sleep, and what can go wrong with sleep.The focus then moves to the neuroanatomical damage and dysfunction from brain injury, and the resultant functional effects.The author then adroitly fuses the two streams of coverage together, focusing on the neurobiological, neurochemical, and functional aspects of both sleep and brain injury to offer new insights as to how they interrelate. The book then looks towards the applied aspects of treatment and rehabilitation, bringing further thoughts of how, because of this new understanding, we can potentially offer novel treatments for brain injury recovery and sleep problems.In this final practical part, four sleep foundations are given, necessary to optimize the three most common sleep problems and their treatments after brain injury. This new approach highlights how sleep can affect the specific functional effects of brain injury and how brain injury can exacerbate some of the specific functional effects of sleep problems, thus having the potential to transform the field of neurorehabilitation.It is essential reading for professionals working with brain injury and postgraduate students in clinical neuropsychology.
