Blurb: Nothing in life is ever monochrome. I discovered that a long time ago, And with all such lessons, I learned it the hard way. Dark cannot exist without light. Night can't occur without day. Despair can't flourish without hope. I couldn't live without her, She can't survive without me. She was meant to be my protector. It was us against the world. Allies. Partners. Instead, she became my worst fear. I allowed that despair to grow and fester. I let it mar me, then, almost destroy me. I realized something had to give. This time, there is no turning back. When the siren calls to you, You unwillingly answer. Question is... Would I survive the fall?
Luna was tortured for years by recurring nightmares of a drowning woman and the man she'd left behind. What plagued her most was the sense that she knew these strangers. Now a freshman in college, Luna wanted nothing more than a normall life, but the gifts the women in her family possessed made that nearly impossible. Meeting Clay was not part of her plans, but he entered her life by storm. Could she reveal her deepest secret without losing him in the process? Clay lost his heart a long time ago and as a single man in his forties, the last thing he was looking for was love, much less with Luna, who was young enough to be his daughter. Still, he craved her like a drug. But, when she reveals the impossible, can he bring himself to walk away, when every part of him knows she is his?***What if your life was suddenly not your own? What does "forever" truly mean?
They call me a God, Demon, Monster, Depends on which side of me they've faced.I'm cold, with an insatiable thirst for blood.If you've got my attention, You're either next on my list, or about to slip into my sheets. I'm Arthur Calthorpe, leader of the Soldati di Sangue.I don't trust, I own. I don't love, I desire. I don't ask, I take.And I want Gaia.The silver-haired tyrant is a ruthless criminal.The first time I saw him was in my mother's bed, But the monster has set his sights on me. He's relentless, and he's found my Achilles heel.When he offers me a bargain, I'm hard-pressed to refuse, What lengths am I willing to go to be free of him? And how far will he go to stop me?The trouble is those eyes, and the fact that I want to know the story behind th
Beyond Technology's Promise

As personal computers have become more available, there has been a great deal of optimism for educational reform through wide computer use, both at school and in the home. Beyond Technology's Promise, first published in 1994, takes a hard look at the home computer scene. The research reported in the book focuses on whether families are using computers to help children learn academic skills and, if so, how well they are doing it. The three year, qualitative investigation provides contextual information crucial to our understanding of how computers are really being used. The authors draw the not so surprising conclusion that most children use computers to play games. They therefore propose directions that must be taken in order to facilitate the educational use of home computers or any other promising educational technology. In so doing, they examine such topics as parental leadership, the home-school computer connection, and the role of gender in home computing use.

If you try to identify the basic qualities of a child "most likely to succeed" as an adult, what words might first come to mind? Independent? Likable? Creative? Disciplined? According to Dr. Joanne Joseph, the essence of a productive and healthy personality is a positive and secure self-image and a solid set of resilient attitudes and behaviours. The Resilient Child: Preparing Today's Youth for Tomorrow's World successfully integrates the latest information available about healthy cognitive development, self-esteem, and resilience to give parents and teachers practical suggestions for nurturing these qualities in children and adolescents. Dr. Joseph, an esteemed psychologist and child education consultant, skillfully shows how stories, television, nutrition, exercise, parental discipline style, and the child's individual characteristics each play a comprehensive role in the development of a child's self-esteem and resilience. With the author's clearly outlined strategies, parents and educators can guide children to be socially skillful, responsible, disciplined, good problem-solvers, and effective managers of the change and adversity inherent in today's world. Elabourating beyond what others have identified as the elements of a productive personality, Dr. Joseph uses a series of inspiring anecdotes and documented research to discuss the following: what experts do and do not know about the development of self-esteem how parents and teachers can actively contribute to the natural development of a child's self-esteem how to promote resilience in children through happy and difficult times the kinds of characteristics that differentiate children from each other how to liberate a child's inner strengths to build self-esteem and resilience how literature and the media can teach resilient and productive values and behaviours styles of parental discipline and their influence on the development of the child and more.
Vividly set against the backdrop of 19th century India and the British-owned sugarcane plantations of Natal, written with great tenderness and lyricism, Children of Sugarcane paints an intimate and wrenching picture of indenture told from a woman’s perspective. Shanti, a bright teenager stifled by life in rural India and facing an arranged marriage, dreams that South Africa is an opportunity to start afresh. The Colony of Natal is where Shanti believes she can escape the poverty, caste, and troubling fate of young girls in her village. Months later, after a harrowing sea voyage, she arrives in Natal only to discover the profound hardship and slave labour that await her. Spanning four decades and two continents, Children of Sugarcane demonstrates the lifegiving power of love, heartache, and the indestructible bonds between family and friends. These bonds prompt heroism and sacrifice, the final act of which leads to Shanti's redemption.

A fresh look at Beuys' environmental work and the social change it continues to inspire Grounded in The Broad’s collection of multiples by Joseph Beuys (1921–86), In Defense of Nature centers the German artist’s commitment to environmental justice. The project traces Beuys’ long history of activism, from founding alternative organizations such as the Organization for Direct Democracy to his involvement in Germany’s Green Party. These efforts culminated in Beuys’ last major project, 7,000 Oaks, which involved planting 7,000 trees accompanied by stones throughout the city of Kassel, Germany, from 1982 to 1987. Beuys’ concept inspired Social Forest: Oaks of Tovaangar, a reforestation project in Los Angeles inaugurated as part of the PST ART initiative. With programs that address overlapping issues of environmental justice, reconciliation, and restoration, Social Forest highlights the continued impact of 7,000 Oaks and brings new meaning to Beuys' legacy four decades later, in a vastly different landscape that equally demands repair.

The last decade has seen an incredible growth in the production and distribution of images and other cultural artefacts. The internet is the place where all these cultural products are stored, classified, voted, collected and trashed. What is the impact of this process on art making and on the artist? Which kind of dialogue is going on between amateur practices and codified languages? How does art respond to the society of information? This is a book about endless archives, image collections, bees plundering from flower to flower and hunters crawling through the online wilderness.
