Maddy is a social worker trying to balance her career and three children. Years ago, she fell in love with Ben, a public defender, drawn to his fiery passion, but now he's lashing out at her. She vacillates between tiptoeing around him and asserting herself for the sake of their kids - until the rainy day when they're together in the car and Ben's volatile temper gets the best of him, leaving Maddy in the hospital fighting for her life. RS Meyers takes us inside the hearts and minds of her characters, alternating among the perspectives of Maddy, Ben, and their fourteen-year-old daughter. Accidents of Marriage is a provocative and stunning novel that will resonate deeply with women from all walks of life, ultimately revealing the challenges of family, faith, and forgiveness.
For many people there is life after 40; for some mathematicians there is algebra after Galois theory. The objective ofthis book is to prove the latter thesis. It is written primarily for students who have assimilated substantial portions of a standard first year graduate algebra textbook, and who have enjoyed the experience. The material that is presented here should not be fatal if it is swallowed by persons who are not members of that group. The objects of our attention in this book are associative algebras, mostly the ones that are finite dimensional over a field. This subject is ideal for a textbook that will lead graduate students into a specialized field of research. The major theorems on associative algebras inc1ude some of the most splendid results of the great heros of algebra: Wedderbum, Artin, Noether, Hasse, Brauer, Albert, Jacobson, and many others. The process of refine ment and c1arification has brought the proof of the gems in this subject to a level that can be appreciated by students with only modest background. The subject is almost unique in the wide range of contacts that it makes with other parts of mathematics. The study of associative algebras con tributes to and draws from such topics as group theory, commutative ring theory, field theory, algebraic number theory, algebraic geometry, homo logical algebra, and category theory. It even has some ties with parts of applied mathematics.
Once in a Blue Moon, intended for all ages, is the magically realistic story of the Rainwater Family and their island in the middle of Good Bear Lake below Shadow Mountain in Colorado. Gabriel Rainwater is the family patriarch and Chris, his thirty-year old grandson. The Rainwaters are members of a clan of superhumans known as Rangers, whose mission it is to escort human spirits into and out of this world, and Gabriel is their head man. With Gabriel aging and Chris his only living relative, Chris believes he must be ready to be the next Rainwater head ranger and feels he must marry Lulu Big Sky, the daughter of the director of the ranger board of directors, Bob Big Sky, to strengthen their secret society. The difficulty is, Chris and Lulu don't love each other. The trouble starts when the day before the wedding Amanda James, the human girl Chris really does love, comes back to town. This, at a time when Chris is under fire from Jack Newday, a non-ranger rabble-rouser, who believes Chris to be Bigfoot, a misnomer that has followed rangers like Chris for over a thousand years. The problem is, Jack is right. Chris is Bigfoot.
