Witness to a gruesome murder and the victim of betrayal, Jago Thal seeks revenge. But when he discovers a conspiracy that could shake the foundations of the world will he be able to sacrifice his anger and stand against evil? Sixteen year old Jago is heir to powerful magic as a House Lord. One day he will rule his people from the throne in the Watcher's Hall, but only if he can survive long enough to claim it. With a father who is more hapless scholar than warrior, Jago is ill-prepared for the challenges that await him. Betrayal from those closest to his family throws him into a quest that uncovers ancient conspiracies and unexpected threats. And beneath it all lies a powerful force that until now had been only hinted at in Erda's histories. As the world outside Jago's small kingdom threatens to swallow up those that he loves, he must master skills hidden within him, while learning whom to trust. But with forces that have been gathering for centuries to contend against, even the best of warriors may not survive. And Jago is only a boy.

It is a pleasure to see this book in print. It represents work on an immense importance to assisted human conception. Numerous books have presented virtually every aspect of follicular growth, fertilization, male and female sterility and implantation.This is among the rare books dedicated to pr- nancy,birth and infant growth. Since the introduction of IVF,it has been clear that various problems could be associated with pregnancy after assisted human conception. The first clinical IVF pregnancy after the transfer of a 5-day blastocyst turned out to be ectopic,and this subjecthas neverbeen farfrom debates on the safety of assi- ed human conception ever since. Ectopic and heterotopic pregnancies were two factors stressed in early days of wor- wide IVF,and multiple pregnancies emerged as perhaps as an even more serious problem as high degrees of ovarian sti- lation began to be practised in some clinics. These chapters add the experience of the author, working in a large German IVF team,to discussions on these topics in this book.
Three Russian Writers and the Irrational

Three Russian Writers and the Irrational

T. R. N. Edwards

Cambridge University Press
2009
pokkari
The idea of man as an essentially irrational being has preoccupied some of the most influential of Russian thinkers, including the three important Soviet writers considered by Dr Edwards in this book. Since the 1917 Revolution the polemic between rationalists and irrationalists has become directly relevant to the way life is lived in the Soviet Union, and a knowledge of the irrationalist point of view is essential for an understanding of much of Soviet literature and of the foundations of Soviet dissidence. As with other titles in this series, this book is not intended simply for the specialist. The broad speculations arising from the subject will fascinate all those who take a serious interest in the Russian literary tradition; a tradition whose principal figures have been concerned to reject philosophical and political creeds that, in seeking to produce a perfect human being in a perfect society, point in fact towards a vision of hell.

Lone Mothers, Paid Work and Gendered Moral Rationalitie

Lone Mothers, Paid Work and Gendered Moral Rationalitie

S. Duncan; R. Edwards

Palgrave Macmillan

Why are most British lone mothers unemployed? And is 'welfare to work' the right sort of policy response? This book provides an in-depth analysis of how lone mothers negotiate the relationship between motherhood and paid work. Combining qualitative and quantitative data, it focuses on social capital in different neighbourhoods, local labour markets and welfare states. Criticising conventional economic theories of decision-making, it posits an alternative concept of 'gendered moral rationality', and sets up new frameworks for understanding national policy differences and discourses about lone motherhood.

Glaciovolcanism on Earth and Mars

Glaciovolcanism on Earth and Mars

The study of volcano-ice interactions, or 'glaciovolcanism', is a field experiencing exponential growth. This comprehensive volume presents a discussion of the distinctive processes and characteristics of glaciovolcanic eruptions, their products, and landforms, with reference to both terrestrial and Mars occurrences. Supported by abundant diagrams and photos from the authors' extensive collections, this book outlines where eruptions have occurred and will occur in the future on Earth, the resulting hazards that are unique to volcano-ice interactions, and how the deposits are used to unravel planetary palaeoclimatic histories. It has a practical focus on lithofacies, glaciovolcanic edifice morphometry and construction, and applications to palaeoenvironmental studies. Providing the first global summary of past and current work, this book also identifies those areas in need of further research, making this an ideal reference for academic researchers and postgraduate students, in the fields of volcanology, glaciology, planetary science and palaeoenvironmental studies.

The collective social history of deaf people in America has yet to be written. While scholars have focused their attention on residential schools for the deaf, leaders in the deaf community, and prominent graduates of these institutions, the lives of “ordinary” deaf individuals have been largely overlooked. Employing the methods of social history, such as the use of digital history techniques and often-ignored sources like census records, Eric C. Nystrom and R. A. R. Edwards recover the lived experiences of everyday deaf people in late nineteenth century America. Ordinary Lives captures the stories of deaf women and men, both Black and white, describing their family lives, networks of support, educational experiences, and successes and hardships. In this pioneering “deaf social history,” Edwards and Nystrom reconstruct the biographies of a wider range of deaf individuals to tell a richer, more nuanced, and more inclusive history of the larger American deaf community.

Endocrine and Metabolic Disease is in two sections. The first is a systematic review of clinical and therapeutic aspects of endocrine diseases, whilst the second considers the clinical pharmacology of drugs used in endocrinology. All the major areas of endocrinology and metabolism are covered. Thyroid, adrenal and pancreatic disease are discussed in depth and there are separate chapters on the ovary and testes as well as on the pituitary gland and parathyroids. There is a useful pharmacopoeia of drugs used in endocrinology at the end of the volume.
Fractography in Failure Analysis of Polymers

Fractography in Failure Analysis of Polymers provides a practical guide to the science of fractography and its application in the failure analysis of plastic components. In addition to a brief background on the theory of fractography, the authors discuss the various fractographic tools and techniques used to identify key fracture characteristics. Case studies are included for a wide range of polymer types, applications, and failure modes, as well as best practice guidelines enabling engineers to apply these lessons to their own work. Detailed images and their appropriate context are presented for reference in failure investigations. This text is vital for engineers who must determine the root causes of failure when it occurs, helping them further study the ramifications of product liability claims, environmental concerns, and brand image.
