Out of their depths and out of their minds, The Dog's Rollocks is the antidote to all those tales of derring-do by fearless indefatigable supermen and women that leave one feeling woefully inadequate and semi-sucidal. Instead, it charts in a sometimes surreal diary the disastrous real-life journey of one middle-aged, middle-class couple, along with their overweight Labrador, to escape mid-life crisis and canapes.

In a time when Communism still ruled and mobile phones, the Internet and denture whitening were things of the future a deluded and ill equipped young couple set out on a 32,000km surreal adventure across some of the most remote areas in the world to break a 15 year old world record and prove to themselves that it's not 'evil' nations' you need to beware of but the people who tell you such toss!

At the time of presentation about 70% of those patients represented limited local regional disease without evidences of distant dissemination. About 30% of the patients had demonstrated metastatic disease at the time of initial diagnosis or about 390,000 patients.

This book aims to investigate how cities in China's rust belt restructure their urban industries and economies. Over the years, China's “economic miracle” has been mainly attributed to rapid development in its coastal region, where the majority of research into the country's development has originated from. Development in the rest of China seems to be attracting relatively scant research attention, especially in China's rust belt. In fact, the urban industrial restructuring process is an o...
