   Survival of the Fittest - Keeping Yourself Healthy in Travel and Service Overseas

When God calls us to work overseas, he doesn't expect us to leave our common sense at home. Yet many do, expecting a greater degree of divine protection because we are doing "God's Work." The author, a physician, has treated many illnesses and injuries that could have been prevented. Health problems are costly, stressful, use up valuable medical resources, and slow down the work. This book tells readers how to stay healthy as well as how to treat common illnesses. 109 pages

   David Pollock and Ruth Van Reken explore experiences of those who have become known as third culture kids (TCKs) — children who grow up or spend a significant part of their childhood living abroad. Rich with real-life anecdotes from TCKs, this is one of the first books to fully examine the nature of the TCK experience and its effect on maturing, developing a sense of identity, and adjusting to one's "passport country" upon return.

TCKs and adult TCKs; parents, relatives and friends of TCKs; and the organizations that send families overseas will find this an invaluable resource. For many TCKs this book will be their first opportunity to discover that they share a common heritage with countless others around the world.
