President Richard Nixon could not keep American ground troops in Cambodia beyond June 1970 without authorization from Congress, which was not forthcoming. Not wanting to desert the anti-communist Lon Nol regime, he ordered top-secret, round-the-clock air support over Cambodia, and the Rustics were born. Author Richard Wood flew as one of the Rustics, a group of forward air controllers who played a major part in staving off both the North Vietnamese and Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge guerilla forces. This three-year air war was so secret—managed directly from the White House—that there are no official records of it. Wood bases his book on his own experiences and those of the other pilots and Cambodians who participated in the operation. He recounts the Rustic's daring missions and portrays the friendships that developed between the pilots and the Cambodian field troops, commanders, and radio operators, who fought with courage and dedication. The loss of American air support after August 15, 1973 eventually contributed to the fall of Cambodia and the horribly dark period of its history that will live in infamy as “the killing fields”.

Rick Wood knows what it's like to deal with the day-to-day challenges of mental health. Having been dealt a hand of OCD, bipolar disorder and Tourette's syndrome, he has learnt how to deal with life's difficulties. With his first poetry book, Life in Words, Rick used prose to explore various experiences. Now he is following it up with a pivotal collection of poetry all about his battles with mental health. Whether it be anxiety, dealing with stereotypes, or the despair of being at war with your own thoughts, he articulates each experience and emotion with raw, brutal imagery. This is his Life in Words Volume 2. This is Mental Health and Me.

The accurate measurement of additives in food is essential in meeting both regulatory requirements and the need of consumers for accurate information about the products they eat. Whilst there are established methods of analysis for many additives, others lack agreed or complete methods because of the complexity of the additive or the food matrix to which such additives are commonly added. Analytical methods for food additives addresses this important problem for 26 major additives. In each case, the authors review current research to establish the best available methods and how they should be used. The book covers a wide range of additives, from azorubine and adipic acid to sunset yellow and saccharin. Each chapter reviews the range of current analytical methods, sets out their performance characteristics, procedures and parameters, and provides recommendations on best practice and future research. Analytical methods for food additives is a standard work for the food industry in ensuring the accurate measurement of additives in foods.
