It takes a certain kind of man to stand out among the Bachelor Firemen of San Gabriel. Firefighter Derek "Vader" Brown is one of a kind-six feet of solid muscle with the heart of a born hero. It's that protective streak that has him pursuing a promotion to Captain to pay for his mother's home care. And it's why he intends to figure out why his sometime girlfriend Cherie Harper runs hot as hellfire one minute and pushes him away the next. Cherie's got it bad. Vader sweeps her off her feet-literally-and their chemistry is combustible. There's just the little problem of a nightmare from her past she was desperate to escape. And then her sister Trixie arrives, causing havoc for Cherie and the male population of San Gabriel. Cherie doesn't want her past to complicate Vader's life or his career. But there's nothing like a firefighter to break through all your defenses, one smoldering kiss at a time ...

Although he's established himself as one of the top firefighters at San Gabriel Station 1, he doesn't think he's good enough for someone like gorgeous Lizzie.Lizzie Breen is used to fighting--from her alpha male brothers, who try to smother her in the name of safety, to the life-threatening childhood illness she overcame.

The only gift Lizzie wants to give him this season is her love, but he's not willing to accept it.When Mulligan is trapped in the burning wreckage of a holiday store, a Christmas angel arrives to open his eyes. But is it too late? This Christmas, it'll take an angel, a determined woman in love, and the entire Bachelor Firemen crew to make him believe ... it is indeed a wonderful life.

Bayou Folk & a Night in Acadie

Bayou Folk & a Night in Acadie

Koloski Bernard; Kate Chopin

PENGUIN BOOKS LTD
1999
nidottu
In the decade prior to the publication of her landmark novel, THE AWAKENING (1899), Kate Chopin wrote about ninety short stories, a selection of which appeared in BAYOU FOLK (1894) and A NIGHT IN ACADIE (1897). Chopin was deeply influenced by thework of the French and American realists and her portraits of the inhabitants of nineteenth-century New Orleans and Natchitoches Parish offer one of the most compassionate views of life in American realistic fiction. With a gentle and knowing gaze, Chopin evoked the distant world of Louisiana plantations and 'Cadian balls and describes the thoroughly modern complexities of her characters ethnic, gender and sexual identities.
The New River: A Legal History

The New River: A Legal History

Bernard Rudden

Oxford University Press
1985
sidottu
This book is a study of the New River Company. It gives a highly complex and comprehensive analysis of the complicated legal problems encountered from the company's inception in the in the first decade of the seventeenth century to its municipalization and conversion to a property company at the turn of the twentieth century. The problems of water supply, hygiene and even general business matters are examined in a relatively narrow framework. As s legal history, this book is full of technical terms. This book, however, is not without merits. It contains interesting chapters on shares, in which tracing the progress of some of the company stock through some of the various hands is discussed, as well as governance and finance yields.

Enemy of God: A Novel of Arthur

Bernard Cornwell

St. Martin's Griffin
1998
nidottu
Since the first volume in his magnificent Warlord Chronicles, The Winter King, now the basis for the British TV show, Bernard Cornwell established himself as the storyteller who could reinvent the legend of King Arthur for our time.In Enemy of God, Cornwell's magical re-creation continues. Having defeated the last holdouts of civil war in southern Britain, Arthur has secured Mordred's throne. But he must still face raging conflicts between the old ways and the new, as well as foes more powerful and more dangerous--because they pose as friends. Brilliantly written and peopled with the familiar faces of legend along with new ones, Enemy of God is an immensely powerful continuation of a modern classic.
Turning Psychology into a Social Science
This radical book explores a new understanding of psychology based on human engagement with external contexts, rather than what goes on inside our heads. It is part of a trilogy that offers a new way of doing psychology, focusing on people’s social and societal environments as determining their behaviour, rather than internal and individualistic attributions. By showing that we engage directly with our complex social, political, economic, patriarchal, colonized, and cultural contexts and that what we do and think arises from this direct engagement with these external contexts, Bernard Guerin expertly demonstrates that Western ideas have systematically excluded the ‘social’ but that this is really where the major determinants of our behaviour arise. This book works through many human activities that psychology still treats as individualized and internal and shows their social and societal origins. These includes beliefs, the sense of self, the arts, religious behaviours, and the new and growing area of conservation psychology. The social structures found by sociology, anthropology and sociolinguistics are shown to shape most ‘individual’ human actions, and it is shown how the main points of Marxism and Indigenous knowledges can be better merged into this new and broader social science.Replacing the ‘internal’ attributions of causes with external contextual analyses based in the social sciences, this book is fascinating reading for academics and students in psychology and the social sciences, and provides exciting new ways to conceptualize and observe human actions in new ways and to resist the current individualistic thinking of ‘psychology’.

The Problems of a Political Animal

The Problems of a Political Animal

Bernard Yack

University of California Press
1993
pokkari
A bold new interpretation of Aristotelian thought is central to Bernard Yack's provocative new book. He shows that for Aristotle, community is a conflict-ridden fact of everyday life, as well as an ideal of social harmony and integration. From political justice and the rule of law to class struggle and moral conflict, Yack maintains that Aristotle intended to explain the conditions of everyday political life, not just, as most commentators assume, to represent the hypothetical achievements of an idealistic "best regime." By showing how Aristotelian ideas can provide new insight into our own political life, Yack makes a valuable contribution to contemporary discourse and debate. His work will excite interest among a wide range of social, moral, and political theorists.
