In this book, Mattey studies the unusual movements in the price of federal timber over 1979-1981. Wide differentials between the price of timber, future contracts, and the price of delivered timber threw the Pacific Northwest into a recession in 1982-84 when timber buyers delayed harvests in order to postpone the realization of their losses on their contracts. Mattey shows that it was not so much the actions of the Federal Reserve - which was widely blamed for the crisis - but the actions of the buyers themselves that caused the recession.

There have been significant advances in the field of psychopharmacology since the first edition of this handbook nearly 20 years ago. Most clinicians cannot keep up with all of these. However, the diligent clinician can maintain a good knowledge-base in this field by reading scientific journals, attending scientific and research meetings, and turning to reference books. This volume is designed to provide basic background and facilitate the continued development of clinical skills for the student and experienced professional. It is organized around typical clinical problems, not theoretical, biochemical or pharmacological structures. New medications have been introduced since 1970. Of primary importance was the introduction of lithium, a drug useful both for the initial control of manic symptoms and for prevention of manic and depressive episodes. Of equal interest has been the application of psychopharmacological agents to a variety of unexpected condition. Antidepressants are now used for phobias and panic attacks. Lithium has application in the treatment of violence. Other examples abound.

A World Divided is a story based on one group's survival through a scientifically-induced Zombie Apocalypse. They fought their way through thick and thin (as well as flesh and bone), yet seemed to never get close to safety. This group had fended off animated corpses and other survivors... but those things don't even compare to what the group has gotten itself into.When another group - a much more powerful and deadly group - is imminent and looking for blood, our group is faced with events no human beings should ever be put through. Seemingly, the only way to stop the torture is to stand up and fight... but the group has dug itself significantly farther down a hole of hell.Their success is doubted, as it should be.Are their decisions rational?A World Divided is a series that challenges the reader to explore their own creativity. The story avoids detail and expects the reader to generate these details based on their own experiences and creative ability. This detail-avoiding effect has the reader relate easier to certain characters and certain places, further attaching the reader to these certain characters and places.A World Divided is also a series based on the perspective of a specific character. This character gets his information from what he has seen, or whatever source (such as a friend) that he gets it from. Any contradictory statements, discrepancies, or strange coincidences are purely from the character's own writings and memories. Any lack of detail is intended. Any discrepancy is intended. This story is intended to be the way it was written.It is your job, as the reader, to relate with the story. It is your job, as the reader, to create your own story where detail is lacking - to think of any possible rational way to generate the details yourself. This story was written mainly as a decent story, but also as a story a reader can participate in.Thank you for reading my second novel.

Leaving home for college can be both exciting and scary, especially for young Christians who want to succeed academically, socially, and spiritually.The College Adventure Handbook provides what every college student needs most: practical tips blended with spiritual commentary designed to help faith-filled students stay on track.

College students don't need one more textbook to read, and most of them don't want one more inspiration-packed devotional. What they need most in this extremely nerve-racking, life-changing time is some down-to-earth advice and practical strategies on how to walk a God-inspired life with as few missteps as possible. The College Adventure Handbook delivers all that and more.
