Industrial Economics

Issues and Perspectives

By: Glenys J. Ferguson

This is a revised and updated edition of Paul Ferguson's successful textbook. Industrial Economics has reached a crossroads in its development; the established approach, based on the neoclassical theory of the firm, is being challenged by a variety of ideas and concepts. Paramount among these are transactions costs, public choice theory and the work of the Austrian School. Industrial Economics integrates these new approaches alongside a critical exposition of traditional theory.

Intention and Causation in Medical Non-Killing

The Impact of Criminal Law Concepts on Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide

By: Glenys Williams

Intention and Causation in Medical Non-Killing

The Impact of Criminal Law Concepts on Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide

By: Glenys Williams

Analyzing the concepts of intention and causation in euthanasia, this timely new book explores a broad selection of disciplines, including criminal and medical law, medical ethics, philosophy and social policy and suggests an alternative solution to the one currently used by the courts, based on grading different categories of killing into a formalized justificatory defence. This text explores how culpability, blameworthiness and liability are ascribed and how ascertaining mens rea and actus reus are problematic in an end-of-life decision-making scenario. Williams criticizes the way the courts rely so exclusively on the criminal concepts of intention and causation in such medical scenarios and examines and raises awareness of the inadequate and inappropriate legal framework within in which judges have to operate. Topical and compelling, this significant contribution argues for a more open and honest approach which would, in turn, provide the certainty, consistency and equality required by the law. This is a quintessential read for all students studying medical and healthcare law and the legal aspects of health and medicine.

Wedded bliss or marriage misery? Forever simply doesn’t have the right ring to it for these ten couples … until love unexpectedly leads them strolling down the aisle. With tuxes and trains, turmoil and tenderness, this collection is just in time for readers ready to tie the knot. Holiday Wedding: Weddings are bad luck for Drew Cannon. After being dumped by his own fiancée a year ago, he ran off to tend to the family toy-making business in Tokyo. Now he’s returned home for the holidays and is forced to team up with his ex to plan last-minute nuptials for his twin brother. Will working together mend and reunite their broken hearts? The Confection Connection: Baker Carly Piper’s only way to save her bakery is to partner with her rival from a TV reality show to produce a wedding cake for a wealthy bride. Is this a half-baked proposal, or will love be the icing on the cake? Battling the Best Man: Dr. Kory Flemming can’t say no to returning home for her best friend’s wedding. Trouble is, Will Mitchell, her high school rival, is the best man, and he’s up to his usual flirtatious tricks. Can they set aside their rocky past to make a new future together? Bride by the Book: Small-town Arkansas attorney Garner Holt badly needs an assistant to sort out his cluttered office, but he didn’t expect a super-secretary like Miss Angelina Brownwood. She’s perfect until an online search reveals a flaw: Angelina isn’t a secretary. But does her secret mean he can’t make this unique woman his for life? An Inconvenient Love: To expand his real estate business, Luca Castellioni needs an English-speaking secretary and a wife, so he strikes a bargain with pretty stranger Sophia Stevens. Soon, he wants more marriage and not so much convenience in their agreement. Too bad his new wife has reconstructed her own life without him. Naked Truth: Special Agent Jack Boudreaux is a man who’s always looking for a good time—what better place for a pick up than a wedding? That’s fine with Kennedy St. George, whose ex-husband burned her emotionally and financially. But when Jack’s FBI assignment sends him undercover at a male strip club in her city, their one-night stand becomes a distracting and dangerous affair. The Bull Rider’s Manager: When rodeo rider manager Barb Carico indulges in a little Las Vegas R&R with sponsor Hunter Martin, things spin out of control and the duo winds up married. They plan to annul this marriage mistake ASAP, but an unexpected complication finds Hunter bargaining for more time with his new bride. Just for the Weekend: Multimillionaire Sam Mason is sick of gold diggers. When he meets role-playing kindergarten teacher Cleo James at a sci-fi convention in Vegas, she seems like the real thing. Then—surprise!—he wakes up married to this sexy stranger … only to find Cleo has vanished. Is he looking for a swindler or the love of his life? Hiding Places: Mona Smith is on the run to avoid getting mixed up in some dirty business with a drug kingpin. Linc Dray needs to produce a marriage certificate to secure the farm he inherited from his grandfather. It’s the perfect deal, but what are they going to do about the inconvenient emotions invading their marriage of convenience? The Bride’s Curse: Three brides return a gorgeous vintage wedding dress to Kelly Andrew’s Wedding Bliss store, claiming it’s cursed, which is definitely bad for business. Then Brett Atwell, the handsome nephew of the dress’s original owner, gets involved, and a mischievous spirit sends the two of them on a goose chase for a groom who went missing decades ago. Will love get its due at long last?

Romance in New England

7 Love Stories

By: Jennifer DeCuir,Rue Allyn,Susanne Matthews,Janis Lee Thereault,Anji Nolan,Glenys O'Connell,M.O. Kenyan

Love blooms along the picturesque New England coastline in these seven romantic tales. From small-town sweetness to fast-paced action, this value-priced digital bundle offers swoon-worthy seductions for every reader. Always My Hero: Ryan Pettridge left Scallop Shores, Maine, a hometown hero with a full scholarship to UCLA and an NFL destiny. But a freak accident stole his dreams, and the all-star athlete returned home to take over the family hardware store. When he comes face to face with his former flame, Bree Adams, it’s clear they still can’t resist each other. But will their difficult past be too much to overcome, or can Bree prove to Ryan once and for all that he has always been a hero in her eyes? One Day’s Loving: Mae Alden likes her quiet life—she’s certainly not cut out to defy convention like her sisters. But everything changes when Boston attorney James Collins reads her father’s will and Mae must choose between who she is and the marriage everyone expects. Could James himself offer the answer to both? The White Carnation: The last person disgraced Boston Examiner reporter Faye Lewis wants back in her life is Detective Rob Halliday, the man she blames for ruining her career and breaking her heart. But when an old friend is murdered, he’s assigned the case. Can they set their troubled past aside and work together, or will the Harvester serial killer and his cult followers reap another prize? The Way You Love Me: When self-confident surgeon Melanie Sweet volunteers her skills in war-torn Kazakhstan, ex-Navy SEAL and security expert Jake McCabe is secretly assigned to protect her. Their attraction is intense as they team up to rescue an orphaned child and escape back to Boston. But Melanie has her own past that’s about to threaten their relationship, too. Will secrets and lies prove stronger than their chance at love? Love Is in the Air: When Royal Canadian Mounted Police Sergeant Jim Cromwell and airline pilot Captain Sophie Berg are hurt in a drive-by shooting, their bond is palpable, even though he suspects she’s the head of the Maine drug smuggling ring he’s sworn to bring down. Then she’s kidnapped, and Jim must decide whether to believe his head or his heart. The Bride’s Curse: In Bar Harbor, Maine, three brides in a row return a gorgeous vintage wedding dress to Kelly Andrews’s Wedding Bliss store, claiming it’s cursed. Kelly thinks it’s nonsense, but these returns are bad for business, so she’d better get to the bottom of the problem. Researching the gown, she meets Brett Atwell, the handsome nephew of the dress’s original owner, and a mischievous spirit sends the two of them on a goose chase for a groom who went missing decades ago. Will love get its due at long last? The Rebel’s Own: In high school, a cruel prank left shy Kennedy Bailey pregnant and alone. Now grown-up and gorgeous, she won’t let anything stop her from saving her five-year-old son’s life when he’s diagnosed with leukemia. Even if it means confronting his father, Boston Rebels quarterback Ryan Carville, who just wants a second chance to show he’s a man worth loving. Sensuality Level: Sensual

Becoming Buddhist

Experiences of Socialization and Self-Transformation in Two Australian Buddhist Centres

By: Glenys Eddy

Becoming Buddhist

Experiences of Socialization and Self-Transformation in Two Australian Buddhist Centres

By: Glenys Eddy

What does it mean to be a Western Buddhist? For the predominantly Anglo-Australian affiliates of two Western Buddhist centres in Australia, the author proposes an answer to this question, and finds support for it from interviews and her own participant-observation experience.Practitioners' prior experiences of experimentation with spiritual groups and practices-and their experiences of participation, practice and self-transformation-are examined with respect to their roles in practitioners' appropriation of the Buddhist worldview, and their subsequent commitment to the path to enlightenment.Religious commitment is experienced as a decision-point, itself the effect of the individual's experimental immersion in the Centre's activities.During this time the claims of the Buddhist worldview are tested against personal experience and convictions. Using rich ethnographic data and Lofland and Skonovd's experimental conversion motif as a model for theorizing the stages of involvement leading to commitment, the author demonstrates that this study has a wider application to our understanding of the role of alternative religions in western contexts.

Dying Alone

Challenging Assumptions

By: Glenys Caswell

This book presents a sociological challenge to the long-held assumption that dying alone is a bad way to die and that for a death to be a good one the dying person should be accompanied. This assumption is represented in the deathbed scene, where the dying person is supported by religious or medical professionals, and accompanied by family and friends. This is a familiar scene to consumers of culture and is depicted in many texts including news media, fiction, television, drama and documentaries. The cultural script underpinning this assumption is examined, drawing on empirical data and published literature. Clarification is offered about what is meant when someone is said to die alone: are they alone at the precise moment of their death, or is it during the period before that? Questions are asked about whose interests are best served by the accompaniment of dying people, whether dying alone means dying lonely and whether, for some individuals, dying alone can be a choice and offer a good death? This book is suitable for scholars and students in the field of dying and death, as well as practitioners who work with dying people, some of whom may wish to be alone.

PaGaian Cosmology

Re-inventing Earth-based Goddess Religion

By: Glenys Livingstone

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

PaGaian Cosmology

Re-inventing Earth-based Goddess Religion

By: Glenys Livingstone

PaGaian Cosmology brings together a religious practice of seasonal ritual based in a contemporary scientific sense of the cosmos and female imagery for the Sacred. The author situates this original synthesis in her context of being female and white European transplanted to the Southern Hemisphere. Her sense of alienation from her place, which is personal, cultural and cosmic, fires a cosmology that re-stories Goddess metaphor of Virgin-Mother-Crone as a pattern of Creativity, which unfolds the cosmos, manifests in Earth's life, and may be known intimately. PaGaian Cosmology is an ecospirituality grounded in indigenous Western religious celebration of the Earth-Sun annual cycle. By linking to story of the unfolding universe this practice can be deepened, and a sense of the Triple Goddess-central to the cycle and known in ancient cultures-developed as a dynamic innate to all being. The ritual scripts and the process of ritual events presented here, may be a journey into self-knowledge through personal, communal and ecological story: the self to be known is one that is integral with place. PaGaian Cosmology may be used as a resource for individuals or groups seeking new forms of devotional expression and an Earth-based pathway to wisdom within.

Local Literacies

Theory and Practice

By: Glenys Waters

While many books have been written about basic literacy, few offer detailed information on how to plan and carry out a community literacy project. Fewer still give guidance in tackling the additional barriers of language, culture, and logistics in developing countries and in treating the local community as an active partner rather than a passive recipient in the literacy process. In Local Literacies: Theory and Practice, Glenys Waters includes these elements and presents a practical guide for developing a literacy program. Beginning with a discussion of the theories of learning and reading, the author provides a detailed description of how to plan and organize a literacy program when the practitioner has little to go on but wit, knowledge, and determination. With approximately one half of the book given to the development of instructional methods and materials in reading, writing, and basic math, Local Literacies will be especially helpful to those doing literacy work in linguistically diverse settings in much of the developing world. The reader will quickly discover that this is a book written by a person who has “been there and done that.” Waters has spent more than twenty years in Australia and Papua New Guinea, both as a practitioner and a consultant in programs of literacy for adults and children. This personal experience, plus a thorough knowledge of the professional literature, makes Local Literacies a “must” for the pioneering literacy worker.

I Will Lift up My Eyes to the Hills

By: Glenys Vincent

Glenys H. Vincent—mother, grandmother, educator—has a passion for encouraging, motivating, and helping people of all ages. Glenys has strong faith in the power of God and wants to share his love with others. In this book, she highlights some of the many challenges that she experienced throughout her life and how she expressed her faith in God, which helped her to be victorious over these circumstances. Each one of us is unique, and each was created by God for a specific purpose. There is destiny and potential wrapped up inside us. We will find true happiness and contentment when we are walking in our destiny. She hopes that as she shares her experiences, others will be motivated and have a positive outlook on life knowing that God is with them and that he will help them through all of the difficulties and challenges that they face. Some difficulties are meant to teach us lessons. If there were no obstacles along the way, there would be no reason for us to be totally dependent on God. “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28).
