Two & Two Make Twenty-Two

A Golden Age Mystery

By: Gwen Bristow,Bruce Manning

A gambling resort off the coast of New Orleans is in for stormy weather and deadly games in this 1930s crime novel by the authors of The Invisible Host. Twelve miles from the mainland, Paradise Island offers rich bon vivants the finest playground in the Gulf of Mexico. It is well known for sports, gaming tables, and the legendary Peacock Club. But federal agents Andrew Dillingham and Maj. Jack Raymond suspect something more sinister is happening on Paradise—especially when a fellow agent winds up dead in the midst of a tropical storm. There to investigate a drug smuggling operation, Dillingham and Raymond find the stakes have been raised right up to their necks. Suspects include the island’s suave and mysterious owner and a lovely femme fatale with unaccountable wealth. And with Dillingham’s grande-dame of a grandmother paying a visit to the island, the storm is far from over.

Redemption from Tyranny

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Redemption from Tyranny

Herman Husband's American Revolution

By: Bruce E. Stewart

For many common people, the American Revolution offered an opportunity to radically reimagine the wealth and power structures in the nascent United States. Yet in the eyes of working-class activists, the U.S. Constitution favored the interests of a corrupt elite and betrayed the lofty principles of the Declaration of Independence. The discontent of these ordinary revolutionaries sparked a series of protest movements throughout the country during the 1780s and 1790s. Redemption from Tyranny explores the life of a leader among these revolutionaries. A farmer, evangelical, and political activist, Herman Husband (1724-1795) played a crucial role in some of the most important anti-establishment movements in eighteenth-century America--the Great Awakening, the North Carolina Regulation, the American Revolution, and the Whiskey Rebellion. Husband became a famous radical, advocating for the reduction of economic inequality among white men. Drawing on a wealth of newly unearthed resources, Stewart uses the life of Husband to explore the varied reasons behind the rise of economic populism and its impact on society during the long American Revolution. Husband offers a valuable lens through which we can view how "labouring, industrious people" shaped--and were shaped by--the American Revolution.

Real Food Has Curves

How to Get Off Processed Food, Lose Weight, and Love What You Eat

By: Bruce Weinstein,Mark Scarbrough

CURVE YOUR APPETITE. Dumping the fake stuff and relishing real food will make you feel better, help you drop pounds, and most importantly, take all the fear out of what you eat. Does that sound too good to be true? It isn’t—despite the fact that lately we’ve given up ripe vegetables for the canned stuff; tossed out sweet, tart orange juice for pasteurized concentrate; traded fresh fish for boil-in-a-bag dinners; and replaced real desserts with supersweet snacks that make us feel ridiculously overfed but definitely disappointed. The result? Most of us are overweight or obese—or heading that way; more and more of us suffer from diabetes, clogged arteries, and even bad knees. We eat too much of the fake stuff, yet we’re still hungry. And not satisfied. Who hasn’t tried to change all that? Who hasn’t walked into a supermarket and thought, I’m going to eat better from now on? So you load your cart with whole-grain crackers, fish fillets, and asparagus. Sure, you have a few barely satisfying meals before you think, Hey, life’s too short for this! And soon enough, you’re back to square one. For real change, you need a real plan. It’s in your hands. Real Food Has Curves is a fun and ultimately rewarding seven-step journey to rediscover the basic pleasure of fresh, well-prepared natural ingredients: curvy, voluptuous, juicy, sweet, savory. And yes, scrumptious, too. In these simple steps—each with its own easy, delicious recipes—you’ll learn to become a better shopper, savor your meals, and eat your way to a better you. Yes, you’ll drop pounds. But you won’t be counting calories. Instead, you’ll learn to celebrate the abundance all around. It’s time to realize that food is not the enemy but a life-sustaining gift. It’s time to get off the processed and packaged merry-go-round. It’s time to be satisfied, nourished, thinner, and above all, happier. It’s time for real food. Shape your waist, rediscover real food, and find new pleasure in every meal as Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough teach you how to: • Eat to be satisfied • Recognize the fake and kick it to the curb • Learn to relish the big flavors you’d forgotten • Get healthier and thinner • Save money and time in your food budget • Decode the lies of deprivation diets • Relish every minute, every bite, and all of life REAL FOOD. REAL CHANGE. REAL EASY.

Double Baloney

''5-7-5-Ers'' & ''Limericks''

By: Bruce Howard Hamilton

~Double Baloney~ is a compilation of 130 pages of mock-haiku and pseudolimericks, rather baroquely written so that each item is one relatively sweeping 'sentence.' On every page is one mock-haiku plus one psuedolimerick, and the individual items on each page have quite identical titles. A very strong attempt has been made to push the language of the individual pieces toward much grammatical correctness, so that the final verbal effects might seem lapidary if not absolutely epigrammatic. Much entertainment supposedly may be had in terms of noticing how the English language is played with.

Solar Energy

Chemical Conversion and Storage

By: Richard R. Hautala,R. Bruce King,Charles Kutal

The intense current interest in the development of solar energy as a viable energy alternative comes as no surprise in view of the widespread awareness of impending world-wide energy shortages. After all, the magnitude of energy available from the sun is impressive, its diffuseness and intermittent nature notwithstanding. The fact that, as a source, it represents a constant and inex haustible supply of energy is alluring. The fact that most solar application schemes are nonpolluting in nature is an attractive bonus. In spite of these impressive attributes, research and development in the area of solar energy is in its infancy, owing largely to the prior lack of any need to exploit such diffuse sources. Indeed efforts in this area have traditionally been within the province of solid-state physics and engineering. The problems associated with efficient light harvesting and storage, however, are not simply technological ones. Effec tive solutions to these problems appear to lie beyond the current forefront of the chemical sciences. Consequently input fr9m scientists previously engaged in fundamental chemistry has begun to emerge. Thus many of the contributions in this volume represent input from research groups with a relatively short history of involvement in solar energy. On the other hand, the long-standing and perceptive commitment of Professor Melvin Calvin to research involving solar energy represents the other extreme. This volume covers a variety of approaches to the problem of efficiently converting and storing solar energy.

Stopover

By: Bruce Connew,Brij V. Lal

Indians first came to Fiji as indentured labourers in 1879. Since the Rabuka coup d'état in 1987, and three subsequent Fiji coups, Indian-Fijians have been emigrating from the country in earnest. STOPOVER is a haunting suite of Bruce Connew photographs from the tiny Indian-Fijian sugar cane settlement of Vatiyaka, taken during seven visits between June 2000 and November 2003, placing an extended family inside a story of migration. Connew's narrative captions and a short story by Brij V Lal, Professor of Pacific and Asian History at the Australian National University, take the reader to the heart of an embattled life. STOPOVER will open as an exhibition at Pataka, Porirua, Wellington, on 18th August, 2007.

Prime Time Network Serials

Episode Guides, Casts and Credits for 37 Continuing Television Dramas, 1964-1993

By: Bruce B. Morris

On September 15, 1964, ABC launched a programming experiment--a prime time series similar to the daytime soap operas that were so successful. Peyton Place became a fixture on the network's schedule for the next five years. The success of Dallas in the early 1980s made the prime time soap opera a staple of television programming. From Bare Essence through The Yellow Rose, this reference work details the successes and failures of 37 prime time serials through 1993. For each show, a lengthy history covers the character development and provides production details, and season-by-season data provide start and end of the season, time slot, comprehensive cast and credits, and an episode guide.

The Economy of Indonesia

Selected Readings

By: Bruce Glassburner

This book brings together thirteen of the most significant essays on the Indonesian economy. Included are articles by twelve leading authorities on economic policies, agriculture, population and manpower, industry, money, and finance. Many of these widely scattered articles are relatively inaccessible in their original form, and two have not been published previously. While these articles give the historical record of economic performance and policy since Indonesia achieved independence in 1949, they also convey the sectoral and institutional structure of the economic system. An extensive introduction and brief headnotes for each section have been provided by the editor. BRUCE GLASSBURNER, formerly Professor of Economics at the University of California, Davis, received his BS and MS degrees from Iowa State College and his PhD degree from the University of California, Berkeley. He was Chairman, Department of Economics, University of California, Davis for eight years. In 1968-1970, he served as Chairman, Field Staff, University of California Indonesia Project, and was Associate Director, University of California Study Center, Hong Kong, in 1969-1971. He is the author of many published articles in the area of economic development.

Parasitology: A Conceptual Approach focuses on the conceptual basis of parasitology, with the goal of providing students with an enriched view of parasites and their biology. Concentrating on concepts will enable readers to gain a broader perspective that will increase their ability to think critically about all kinds of parasitic associations. The interfaces between the study of parasitism and prominent biological disciplines such as biodiversity, immunology, ecology, evolution, conservation biology, and disease control are highlighted. Studying individual parasites is an essential part of parasitology so Parasitology: A Conceptual Approach contains an appendix which provides a concise overview of the biology of important human and veterinary parasites. End-of-chapter questions are provided, as is an instructor manual.

Vision Changing Charities

RNIB History in Socio-Political Context, 1970-2010

By: Ian Bruce

The late twentieth century saw charities grow from timid service deliverers into major providers with campaigning teeth. What caused this? How did they gain confidence and strength? In this fascinating history, examined through the eyes of RNIB from 1970 to 2010, Ian Bruce examines the internal drivers and the external socio-political environment that allowed and encouraged this explosion. Bruce's experience of leading a charity at the forefront of this change, and his participation in the wider charity sector for fifty years as both activist and academic, gives him an unsurpassed understanding of what happened and why. His first-hand knowledge will speak to charity workers as well as academics, covering themes such as the rise of beneficiary power against patronising providers; the change from welfare to rights; the shift from the medical to the social model of disability; and the adoption of social welfare and business professionalisms such as Strategic Planning and Charity Marketing. Today's charities have much to learn from the successes and mistakes of this dynamic period.

The Clinical Science of Neurologic Rehabilitation

The Clinical Science of Neurologic Rehabilitation

By: Bruce H. Dobkin

The Second Edition of this single-authored volume integrates multiple disciplines of basic and clinical research to help clinicians further develop the best possible care for the rehabilitation of patients with neurologic diseases. From the readable descriptions of the structures and functions of pathways for movement and cognition, the reader comes to understand the potential for training induced, pharmacologic, and near-future biologic interventions to enhance recovery. Dr. Dobkin shows how functional neuroimaging serves as a marker for whether physical, cognitive, and neuromodulating therapies work and how they sculpt the plasticity of the brain. Themes, such as how the manipulation of sensory experience can serve as a formidable tool for rehabilitation, run throughout the text, built from the level of the synapse to behaviors such as grasping, walking, and thinking. From illustrating how we may one day repair the brain and spinal cord to how to retrain spared and new pathways, Dr. Dobkin draws insights from a broad swath of fundamental research to give clinicians tools they can translate into bedside practices. The book treats the medical complications and therapeutic approaches to neurologic diseases as an interconnected matrix. The management of common medical issues, impairments, and disabilities are described across diseases. Special problems posed by patients with stroke, myelopathies, brain injury, multiple sclerosis, degenerative diseases, and motor unit disorders receive individual comment. Short-term and delayed pulse interventions for patients, along with clinical trials, are dissected and put into perspective. The First Edition of this book was titled Neurologic Rehabilitation. The title has been changed to reflect Dr. Dobkin's sense that fundamental research now drives the field of neurologic rehabilitation even more than it could in 1996 when the First Edition was published. The Second Edition features entirely new chapters on functional neuroimaging of recovery; neurostimulators and neuroprosteses; integration into the book of many new clinical and neuroscientific observations relevant to the clinician; and extensive updating and expansion of all chapters. Readers, whether clinicians serving the rehabilitation team, or students or researchers in neuroscience, neurology, physical medicine, allied health, or bioengineering, will acquire new insights and tools for creative pursuits that aim to lessen the disabilities of patients.

Exotic Amphibians and Reptiles of the United States

By: Walter E. Meshaka Jr.,Suzanne L. Collins,R. Bruce Bury,Malcolm L. McCallum

The first complete field guide to the exotic amphibians and reptiles established in the continental United States and Hawaiʻi, this volume covers 74 species that are not native to the country and 29 species that are native but occur beyond their original geographic range. Dispersed from their former habitats by human activity, many of these species are invasive in their new environments, causing ecological or economic harm. Ideal for naturalists of all levels, Exotic Amphibians and Reptiles of the United States details each species’ taxonomy, distribution, history, and ecology and portrays each one with vibrant photographs. Drawing on county-level distribution maps from 2,908 published records, this guide provides an in-depth understanding of local factors that drive the success of exotic species. It connects species-specific information to conservation issues as it explores human causes of exotic and invasive establishment. The book also includes eight invited essays which provide regional perspectives on scientific, economic, and management-related aspects of this phenomenon. As ecological pressures on native species and habitats increase, understanding the histories and roles of exotic species is becoming more and more important for conservation efforts. Providing practical identification skills and an awareness of the environmental impacts of these amphibians and reptiles, this indispensable guide equips readers to confront the unusual biodiversity crisis of exotic species.

This time it's the mining village of Buckshot, Colorado, where the boys hope to find fortune in the underground caves belonging to Riley's Uncle Rufus. But once they arrive, they realize that their get-rich-quick scheme has turned into a get-suited-up challenge for their wits and their baseball skills. When Uncle Rufus' mine floods, the only way to save it--and their hides--is to win the big game against the Jersey Invincibles--a ball team in from the East with their throwing arms ready and their noses in the air. The Invincibles are serious challengers and the game is looking like a lose-lose situation, unless the Gents can pull off one of their signature miracle plays!

7 Keys to Arrest & Prevent Life Threatening Pre Diabetes

Even a borderline fasting blood glucose level of 5.5 mmol/L can be dangerous

By: Dr Bruce Miller

Forty-one million Americans are estimated to have pre-diabetes compared to 16 million Americans diagnosed with diabetes. This says a mouthful about pre-diabetes! Pre-diabetes is a wake-up call to warn you that you could be getting the real thing. If your blood fasting glucose is above 5.5 mmol/L, this is an indication that your insulin is beginning to lose control over your blood sugar level. You are now diagnosed as a pre-diabetic. Pre-diabetes not only increases your risk of type 2 diabetes within 10 years but also increases your risk of a heart attack or stroke by 50 percent. If you have pre-diabetes, you may experience difficulties in losing weight. Furthermore, damages to your heart, arteries, nerves, and eyes are already taking place at this stage causing no symptoms for the present, but ticking like a time bomb. This is a must-read book for those who have symptoms of pre-diabetes and want to discover what pre-diabetes is, its cause and the harm it can do to your health and the preventive steps you can take to keep diabetes from taking hold of your body. Read this book even if you have never been diagnosed with diabetes. You have a one out of four chances of developing pre-diabetes. Prevention of diabetes is possible at this stage

Resource and Environmental Management

Resource and Environmental Management

By: Bruce Mitchell

In order to optimally manage the environment and natural resources, it is vitally important to recognize that there is much more to consider than just the environment itself and the natural resources it provides. A key consideration is also the interrelationship between natural ecosystems and human involvement and behavior. This interaction is where the field of environmental resource management comes into play: the complex ecological and sociological systems of the natural world intertwined. The purpose of this book is to consider such matters, and to help readers develop their own capacities as environmental managers and stewards. Bruce Mitchell's textbook Resource and Environmental Management served as the gold standard for many environmental science courses when the first edition published in 1997. Now, twenty years later, an updated third edition allows for the inclusion of recent developments. The book covers the basic theories and concepts of environmental resource management, and guides students to be able to apply those concepts to practical situations. By covering basic theories and concepts, and by using case studies to show how these have been applied, Bruce Mitchell's new edition seeks to ensure that students have competence in both aspects. The text enhances the reader's capacity to conduct practice and research in resource and environmental management.

A Practical Guide for Genetic Management of Fragmented Animal and Plant Populations

By: Richard Frankham,Jonathan D. Ballou,Katherine Ralls,Mark Derek Bruce Eldridge,Michele R. Dudash,Charles Barnet Fenster,Robert C. Lacy,Paul Sunnucks

The habitats of most species have been fragmented by human actions, isolating small populations that consequently develop genetic problems. Millions of small, isolated, fragmented populations are likely suffering from inbreeding depression and loss of genetic diversity, greatly increasing their risk of extinction. Crossing between populations is required to reverse these effects, but managers rarely do so. A key reason for such inaction is that managers are often advised to manage populations in isolation whenever molecular genetic methods indicate genetic differences among them. Following this advice will often doom small populations to extinction when the habitat fragmentation and genetic differences were caused by human activities. A paradigm shift is required whereby evidence of genetic differentiation among populations is a trigger to ask whether any populations are suffering genetic problems, and if so, whether they can be rescued by augmenting gene flow. Consequently, there is now an urgent need for an authoritative practical guide to facilitate this paradigm shift in genetic management of fragmented populations.

By: Theodore L. Brown,H. Eugene LeMay Jr.,Bruce E. Bursten,Catherine Murphy,Patrick Woodward,Steven Langford,Dalius Sagatys,Adrian George

If you think you know the Brown, LeMay Bursten Chemistry text, think again. In response to market request, we have created the third Australian edition of the US bestseller, Chemistry: The Central Science. An extensive revision has taken this text to new heights! Triple checked for scientific accuracy and consistency, this edition is a more seamless and cohesive product, yet retains the clarity, innovative pedagogy, functional problem-solving and visuals of the previous version. All artwork and images are now consistent in quality across the entire text. And with a more traditional and logical organisation of the Organic Chemistry content, this comprehensive text is the source of all the information and practice problems students are likely to need for conceptual understanding, development of problem solving skills, reference and test preparation.

Even for those not aspiring to clown stardom or planning to set up their own entertainment business, this volume can be useful as a source for planning a party or special school event."-Booklist, American Library Association"The strengths of the book lie in the detailed, comprehensive coverage of the topic, the inclusion of many ideas and examples, and the emphasis on in-depth understanding of the process involved in creation of character and comic routine."-School Library Journal"It's an excellent book, for both beginner and advanced clown. I have recommended it to my local clown groups and my beginning class at Purdue."-Janet Tucker, President, World Clown Association"An excellent reference...outstanding book and I would rate it as a five red clown nose book."-Lee Mullally, Education Director, World Clown Association"Creative Clowning-the name says it!

It doesn't matter if you have been a clown for an hour or for years, you can learn and benefit from this book. I cannot say enough about this book but "Thanks" and my future audiences would definitely say "Thanks" for your contribution to the future development of laughter!"-Charles G. Martin, professional clown and magician"Provides oodles of information on everything from funny juggling and performing miracles to handling troublemakers and putting on clown makeup...It could definitely be used as a textbook in clown school, but it could just as well be read by anyone who is interested in comedy in general...the writing in this book is clear and simple and hence, very entertaining...For those who are considering a career in clowndom, this book is a must For those who just want to have a good time reading about this most happy of careers, this book is also a must."-Nashua Telegraph
