Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Separated by 600 years, linked by a tragic coincidence… Sholto Kelley had always lived a sheltered life working at an Abbey in Ireland, but when the Pope calls for a crusade to restore the Christian influence in the Holy Land, Sholto feels compelled to respond. Upon his arrival in the port city of Acre, a huge, enemy army also descend, determined to expel the Christian crusaders from the Holy Land. Instructed by the Commander of the Templar garrison to leave Acre on the last available boat, Sholto’s mission is to evacuate ancient texts and transport them back to the Abbey to be deciphered. When his life is threatened, Sholto hides the texts with a coded message as to their location. Six hundred years later, in 1891, Sholto’s message is found by James Cartwright who is seeking sanctuary during a storm. Intrigued by his discovery, James is inspired to follow the message in order to bring closure to Sholto’s mission and satisfy his own curiosity. Inspired by authors such as Kate Mosse, Dan Brown and Henry Lincoln, Sanctuary spans six decades in order to bring a new perspective to an age old question.

Red, White, and Kind of Blue?

The Conservatives and the Americanization of Canadian Constitutional Culture

By: David Schneiderman

Situated between two different constitutional traditions, those of the United Kingdom and the United States, Canada has maintained a distinctive third way: federal, parliamentary, and flexible. Yet in recent years it seems that Canadian constitutional culture has been moving increasingly in an American direction. Through the prorogation crises of 2008 and 2009, its senate reform proposals, and the appointment process for Supreme Court judges, Stephen Harper’s Conservative government has repeatedly shown a tendency to push Canada further into the US constitutional orbit. Red, White, and Kind of Blue? is a comparative legal analysis of this creeping Americanization, as well as a probing examination of the costs and benefits that come with it. Comparing British, Canadian, and American constitutional traditions, David Schneiderman offers a critical perspective on the Americanization of Canadian constitutional practice and a timely warning about its unexamined consequences.

Healing the Blues

By: Dorothea Nudelman,David Willingham

Written jointly by a former patient and her psychotherapist, Healing the Blues is a unique account about both sides of the therapeutic process. At first, the cause of Dorothea Nudelman's depression seems obvious. The effects of post-polio syndrome threatens all that she has worked so hard to achieve -- both personal and professional success. But as is usually the case, the root of depression is more elusive. Using a wide range of tools, from dream analysis to hypnosis to humor, David Willingham performs his role as counselor to help Dorothea uncover the hidden cause of her pain. Together, they convey with amazing clarity the theoretical and practical issues involved in the progression of therapy and, ultimately, healing. In the end, Dorothea gains the confidence and tools she needs to overcome her depression when it strikes.

Radical Parliamentarians and the English Civil War

Radical Parliamentarians and the English Civil War

By: David R. Como

Radical Parliamentarians and the English Civil War charts the way the English civil war of the 1640s mutated into a revolution, in turn paving the way for the later execution of King Charles I and the abolition of the monarchy. Focusing on parliament's most militant supporters, David Como reconstructs the origins and nature of the most radical forms of political and religious agitation that erupted during the war, tracing the process by which these forms gradually spread and gained broader acceptance. Drawing on a wide range of manuscript and print sources, the study situates these developments within a revised narrative of the period, revealing the emergence of new practices and structures for the conduct of politics. In the process, the book illuminates the eruption of many of the period's strikingly novel intellectual currents, including assumptions and practices we today associate with western representative democracy; notions of retained natural rights, religious toleration, freedom of the press, and freedom from arbitrary imprisonment. The study also chronicles the way that civil war shattered English protestantism - leaving behind myriad competing groupings, including congregationalists, baptists, antinomians, and others - while examining the relationship between this religious fragmentation and political change. It traces the gradual appearance of openly anti-monarchical, republican sentiment among parliament's supporters. Radical Parliamentarians and the English Civil War provides a new history of the English civil war, enhancing our understanding of the dramatic events of the 1640s, and shedding light on the long-term political and religious consequences of the conflict.

Mineral Systems, Earth Evolution, and Global Metallogeny

By: David Ian Groves,M. Santosh

Mineral Systems, Earth Evolution, and Global Metallogeny provides insights into the critical parameters of Earth's evolution, particularly in terms of thermal state, tectonics, and the atmosphere-hydrosphere-biosphere system, that control the metallogeny of the planet. World-class to giant mineral systems are described and interpreted in terms of their relationship to critical periods of change in tectonic regimes within the supercontinent cycle and evolution of the mantle lithosphere. Specific times of formation of highly anomalous giant mineral systems, such as the so-called Boring Billion, are discussed together with specific tectonic environments, such as craton edges and thick lithosphere margins. Mineral Systems, Earth Evolution, and Global Metallogeny provides an overview of how the evolution of Earth has dictated the nature and distribution of its mineral resources that are the foundation of our modern industries and provides insights into critical parameters for conceptual exploration targeting. Researchers, academicians, undergraduate and graduate students, and geologists in the fields of economic geology, geologic exploration, mineral systems, and earth evolution will find this to be a helpful textbook in understanding the timing and distribution of the world's major mineral deposits are related to critical parameters controlling earth evolution. - Draws together aspects of each book section through summary tables - Synthesizes data in each book section using summary diagrams/figures - Provides continuity between related sections of the book by providing end-of-chapter bullet-point conclusions

Metallic Mineral Resources

The Critical Components for a Sustainable Earth

By: Daniel Müller,David Ian Groves,M. Santosh

Metallic Mineral Resources: The Critical Components for a Sustainable Earth serves the increasing interest in metal resources, especially the critical and strategic metals which are essential commodities for the green energy transition. The opening chapters introduce the heterogeneous distribution of metal resources as well as the industrial use of metals. The main chapters then work systematically through abundant metal systems, scarce critical metal systems, rare critical metal systems, trace critical metal systems, and precious metal systems. The book wraps with a close examination of temporal distribution of mineral resources and an insightful discussion of the future of mineral resources. Researchers and engineers in economic geology and mining and exploration industries will find themselves returning to this key reference for years to come.• Describes how mineable and economic metal concentrations form and are preserved in the Earth's upper crust • Explores how they are discovered by systematic mineral exploration at a variety of scales • Discusses how to educate the public on the scarcity of natural metal resources and the issues concerning the nexus between the energy transition and potential exhaustion of critical metals

Integrated Livestock-fish Farming Systems

By: David Little,Peter Edwards,Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations

Integrated farming in Asia is either considered an eco-friendly good that should be preserved for environmental reasons or a poor practice that will soon be superseded by industrial aquaculture. This report finds that most livestock-fish integration is sound business conducted by entrepreneurs accessing urban markets where the price of fish is relatively low. It can be used as part of a strategy to reduce environmental impacts of intensive livestock production and to produce low-cost food. Farmers have proved adept at both developing their systems to meet their own needs and diversifying the role of ponds, fish and livestock within their complex livelihoods.
