This series documents the struggles of Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin in the last year of World War II as each sought to impose his conception of the post-war world on the others. The war would soon be over, but who would win the peace and dominate the world? The US wanted to convert the world to its blend of democracy and capitalism; Britain sought to re-impose the pre-war colonial system and stem the tide of communism; and the USSR sought to create as wide a zone of protection and dominion as possible. This comprehensive set of programs covers the attitudes and actions, the deceptions and double-dealings, the leaders and events that set the stage for the Cold War.

Fred has had arthritis for 10 years. Pain killers and anti-inflammatory drugs have had bad side effects. His doctor was interested to find out if there were any effective alternatives and contacted the British Acupuncture Council. Over a period of 3 months Fred had 10 acupuncture sessions but shortly after his treatment ended, he had a minor relapse and had to have an extra session of acupuncture. Although the therapy manages his pain rather than cures his arthritis, Fred prefers the treatment to conventional drugs.

Drinking. It's a widely accepted social activity. If you don't drink people think you're weird. Is it any wonder most of us continue to imbibe even though we know it's bad for us? But how bad? And why do some people develop drinking problems while others don't? Therefore, it's not surprising that most of us continue to drink knowing it can be destructive. Is it genetic or learned? Is there a point of return once the liver haws been damaged? Does moderate drinking really harm us? Or could a little be good for us?
