But we all have our own heroes in whatever area we are working. Planet Savers brings together the varied stories of the hundreds of movers and shakers that have spoken up throughout history and taken action to defend the world from pollution, deforestation, species loss and climate change.? From Theodore Roosevelt to Al Gore; from Francis of Assisi to David Attenborough - and from hundreds more men and women that you will know little, if anything, about. Scientists, artists, business people, priests, lawyers, poets, politicians, activists and more, from every continent of the world. Their work has enthused us about the natural world and warned us that we must do much more to preserve it. The Indian woman who became the world's first environmental martyr; the Baptist Reverend who asked "What Would Jesus Drive?"; the Quaker big game hunter who set up the first conservation organisation; the Shakespearian actor who revolutionised organic gardening; and the housewife whose campaign against toxic waste forced a President to act.? The book is a cornucopia of people who from time immemorial have put their careers, reputations and lives on the line to protect our planet from its governing inhabitants - the human race. Today, as thousands of species of animals and plants are faced with extinction, thousands of years of indigenous knowledge is lost in the face of technological advance, and we become more and more aware of the potential doomsday scenario of a warming world, we need Planet Savers more than ever.? Our inspiration can be the 301 environmental lives portrayed in this book. These people cared enough to do something about it. Planet Savers is both a tribute and a catalyst: a tribute to the people that loved the planet enough to want to act to save it, and a catalyst for the people who will be inspired to act after reading it. New Planet Savers are at work right now in rainforests and megacities; in community centres and boardrooms; at road protests and in courtrooms, all over the world. If this book has one great aim it is to inspire you, the reader, to join them.? It is a book that every home should own."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aEnvironmentalists$vBiography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnvironmentalists 676 $a333.720922 700 $aDesmond$b Kevin$0921089 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452938003321 996 $aPlanet Savers$92066067 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03550nam 22006374a 450 001 996208219303316 005 20240418064115.0 010 $a0-470-99497-5 010 $a0-470-99496-7 035 $a(CKB)1000000000399345 035 $a(EBL)351360 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000225829 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11174182 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000225829 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10234067 035 $a(PQKB)10438827 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000169737 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11155086 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000169737 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10204039 035 $a(PQKB)11291485 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC351360 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL351360 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10240439 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL132043 035 $a(OCoLC)184983484 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000399345 100 $a20050413d2006 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aPractical intracardiac echocardiography in electrophysiology$b[electronic resource] /$fJian-Fang Ren ...

This book is designed to provide both the electrophysiologist and echocardiographer with an in-depth view of the role and value of ICE during electrophysiologic procedures. A guide to techniques used for optimal ICE imaging in cardiac electrophysiology is provided. In addition, new and less-recognized uses of ICE in electrophysiological procedures are described and their clinical applications are presented.
