One wild and passionate Caribbean night leaves Annelise with amazing memories...but what happens when her vacation fling reappears as a VIP client? Deserted by her fiancé only three months before their wedding, a devastated Annelise decides to go on their Caribbean honeymoon alone in the hope of thawing the deep freeze of her emotions. Tripping and landing on top of the most gorgeous man she's ever seen, a sexy French-Canadian stranger, is as surprising as it is mortifying. Rémy Gaspard is staying at his family's remote tropical resort to get some work done after a difficult visit with his sister, but instead, he finds himself drawn to the sad young woman he sees from across the beach. When she quite literally falls into his lap, he can't believe his good fortune. Their passionate vacation romance is cut short by a troubling accident and they part ways, but neither can stop thinking about the other. When they meet up again in Montreal, seemingly by accident six months later, their attraction is just as strong...or stronger. As they face the challenges of misunderstandings, suspicions and a shadowy menace that won't leave Rémy's family alone, one thing becomes clear. Their love remains strong, anywhere and always.

The Law and Ethics of Medical Research

International Bioethics and Human Rights

By: Aurora Plomer

The growing globalization of medical research and the application of new biotechnologies in morally contested areas has forced a revision of international ethical guidelines. This book examines the controversies surrounding biomedical research in the twenty-first century from a human rights perspective, analyzing the evolution and changes in form and content of international instruments regulating the conduct of biomedical research. The approach adopted is comparative and includes an evaluation of human rights and UK and US law on embryonic stem cell research, the HIV/AIDS trials in the developing world, the Alder Hey Inquiry and the human radiation and nerve gas experiments on human subjects in the US and the UK. This is the first book to analyze some of the major issues in biomedical research today from an international, comparative human rights perspective.

The Story of What Is Broken Is Whole

An Aurora Levins Morales Reader

By: Aurora Levins Morales

The Story of What Is Broken Is Whole collects for the first time fifty years of writing by Puerto Rican Jewish feminist and radical thinker Aurora Levins Morales. Combining well-known excerpts from her books with out-of-print and harder to find ephemeral works and unpublished pieces, this collection weaves together stories of bodies, ecologies, Indigeneity, illness, travel, sexuality, and more. As Levins Morales reflects on her use of storytelling as a tool for change, she gathers the threads of lives and places sacrificed to greed and extraction while centering care for our individual bodyminds and those of our kin, communities, and movements. This comprehensive and essential collection provides an unprecedented window into the breadth and depth of the work of one of the most significant thinkers of our time.

Leading Mindfully for Healthy and Successful Schools

Beyond the Traditional Progressive Divide

By: Aurora Reid

Schools are increasingly expected to improve mental health and well-being and academic outcomes for students. However, the debate about well-being and school improvement is often unhelpfully polarised with attachment-informed and restorative-justice approaches pitted against structures and systems that instil discipline. This book seeks to take a ‘middle way’, looking at how these perspectives might complement one another, and argues that healthy teacher-student relationships require an adult that is both attuned to their students’ needs and able to hold boundaries with them. Setting out conception of leadership that is clear, compassionate, and self-aware, Leading Mindfully for Healthy and Successful Schools draws on therapeutic and educational research to identify key strategies for improving well-being across schools that are sustainable in the long term. This book is divided into three sections – Leading Yourself, Leading School Culture and Leading in the Classroom – and the chapters cover the following: Interpersonal neurobiology and the role that attachment plays in our work Self-care and how this can be built into school life The role of structures and relationships Building trust Radical inclusion Building calm and effective classrooms Healthy adult authority Including reflective activities, thought-provoking case studies and key takeaways for every chapter, this is an essential read for all current and aspiring school leaders.

Wild Child

By: Tamsin Ley,Aurora Shifters

A pack of lies Pregnant and single, Melody Rush fled to Alaska to avoid marrying the cruel Alpha who knocked her up. All he wants is her inheritance, which she won’t get unless she marries him. But she’d rather live in poverty than spend her life with a man she detests. When a huge, tat-covered bounty hunter tracks her down, she knows she’s out of options. He’s surprisingly kind in a growly, resentful sort of way, and something about him makes her insides quiver with something besides fear… A tarnished champion Ash Huntington is on a mission, determined to dig his pack out of the debt they're in because of his mistake. But when he finally catches up to the bounty he's been tracking, his wolf insists she’s his mate. Melody’s funny, determined, and fierce, and all she wants is to protect her unborn child from the monster who hired him. But if Ash doesn't turn her in, his pack loses everything. If he does, he'll lose her forever. Yet he’ll be damned if he lets another man steal his fated bride.

(In)visible Acts of Resistance in the Twilight of the Franco Regime

A Historical Narration

By: Aurora G. Morcillo

Which everyday practices allowed women to sustain and fulfill individuality and agency under dictatorial rule? This book adds to a rich scholarship on the history of late Francoism and the transition to democracy in Modern Spain through the lens of oral history and life writing. Aurora Morcillo tells the stories of anonymous individuals from both student and working class backgrounds - crucial sites of active resistance against the dictatorship at the time - and provides an interdisciplinary feminist analysis of the inevitable modernization of Spain in the 1960s and 1970s. This study uncovers a Deleuzian rendition of historical unfolding/becoming rather than simply being a collection of oral histories: a historical narration which proposes to be a creative historical ontology.

Aviation in the Adirondacks

Aviation in the Adirondacks

By: Aurora Pfaff

Since 1912, when a young man named George Gray landed an open-cockpit biplane on a farmer's field, aviation has played an important role in communities located throughout the 6 million-acre Adirondack Park. Through a range of historic images and postcards, Aurora Pfaff tells the story of pilots who linked communities by air, transported goods and people, and the small towns and airfields that they called home. From the novelty of planes landing on skis and daredevil flying circuses to forest fire patrols, exploration of the vast backcountry, and toy deliveries by Santa, airplanes have opened the Adirondack wilderness and made remote communities more easily accessible for tourists and adventurers. Yet this golden age for aviation would not last, for as car travel became easier and more affordable in the mid- to late-20th century, air travel in the Adirondacks would fade in importance and necessity. Aurora Pfaff is a writer and editor living and working in New York state's Adirondack Park. She has a master's degree in English from Harvard University, but as a child dreamed of becoming an astronaut. She finally took her first flying lesson in 2022. Images used in Aviation in the Adirondacks come from the Adirondack Experience: The Museum on Blue Mountain Lake, Historic Saranac Lake, Keene Valley Library, Piseco Lake Historical Society, Saranac Lake Free Library Adirondack Research Room, Town of Webb Historical Association, individuals, and other organizations.

Media Capital

Architecture and Communications in New York City

By: Aurora Wallace

Nineteenth-century press barons in New York City helped to invent the skyscraper. Early newspaper buildings in the country's media capital were designed to communicate both commercial and civic ideals, provide public space and prescribe discourse, and speak to class and mass in equal measure. Wallace illustrates how the media have continued to use the city as a space in which to inscribe and assert their power. She considers how architecture contributed to the power of the press, the nature of the reading public, the commercialization of media, and corporate branding in the media industry.

The Meaning of Multiraciality

A Racially Queer Exploration of Multiracial College Students' Identity Production

By: Aurora Chang

The Meaning of Multiraciality: A Racially Queer Exploration of Multiracial College Students' Identity Production provides a comprehensive overview of Multiraciality as a term, experience, and identity using data from a study of Multiracial college students and well as the author's own experiences as a Multiracial person. Utilizing a racially queer framework, they discuss what it means to be a Multiracial insider (being a Multiracial researcher studying Multiracial study participants), the counter-stories of Multiracial college students, the theorizing that has emerged as a result, and the educational consequences and impacts on Mulitracial students overall. The author explores the following questions: How do Multiracial students produce their identities? How do Multiracial students exercise their agency? How does the notion of Multiraciality perpetuate and disrupt notions of race? How can we expand theoretical understandings of race so that they take Multiracial people into account, specifically within educational settings? The author illustrates the agentic ways in which Multiracial college students come to understand and experience the complexity of their racialized identity production. Their counter-narratives reveal an otherwise invisible student population, providing an opportunity to broaden critical discourses around education and race.

Being Free

By: Luisa Aurora Viviana Rodal

Freedom does not mean absence of coaction, which on the other hand is impossible for the limited human being (evidently through the elemental economic and material conditions). Freedom is referred to the responsibility that makes of autonomy a critizable authority. Therefore, justification is included in freedom and is born of the committed rationality of human being (who iconoclastically is able to eclypse manipulations and servility-)- In this sense, the democracy and utopia of freedom are mutually grounded if one does not understand utopia as an ideology or dogma to be applied over the person or the society. The opposition determinism-freedom should be overcome, hence, through a pragmatic attitude allowing freedom for individual and social creativity.
