A Night of Two Souls

Some Souls Can Never Be Separated

By: J.C. Derrick

The Night of Changing Souls occurs the first of September every year. As the date looms on the horizon once again, all the twenty-one-year-olds from around the world nervously wait in anticipation. They have no idea if their soul mate is someone they already know or a stranger living far away. When the night finally arrives, thousands of young people experience a premonition that allows them to view the world through their soul mate’s eyes. The event can either go really right or really wrong. Aoi Koibito is an artist and popular social media influencer living in Arizona who attains millions of views every time she posts a video online. Miles Frost is an army soldier from Canada who has just looked death in the face and somehow survived. As their two worlds collide in a dream on The Night of Changing Souls, now only time will tell if they can find each other and, if they do, can overcome their obstacles to live happily-ever-after. In this romantic story, two young people intertwined on a special night during their twenty-first years of life attempt to discover if they truly are soul mates.

Tales from a Strange Man

By: J. C. Farnsworth

About the Book Tales from a strange man is a series of interwoven short stories that deal with the concepts of regret, the passage of time, family bonds, death incarnate, love lost, and the supernatural. But at the core of this work, there is yet more to be found. In its heart of hearts... good and evil collide. The post-apocalyptic surviving gods personally select a wanderer through time, known as the Traveler, to help them defeat an ancient, malicious entity. The Traveler passes through time, space, and multiple universes to maintain balance and prevent the continued formation of the Next, an end-of-time universe that none should hope prevails. Can the surviving gods conquer this ancient evil? Will the Traveler ever manage to break free? Follow the winding paths of good and evil through a broken space-time continuum in this suspenseful horror: Tales from a Strange Man. About the Author J. C. Farnsworth can be best described as a vivid dreamer with a simple lifestyle. Born in New Hampshire, USA, he spent nine years serving his country in the Vermont National Guard, alongside some of the best men and women he has yet to meet. He currently spends most of his waking hours raising chickens and drinking beer, when he’s not writing. Farnsworth’s past dreams are so memorable, they feed into a great deal of his writing content, much like the present work of supernatural horror. Farnsworth pours his subconscious mind on paper to refine his craft in Tales from a Strange Man.

Education Law

By: Michael Imber,Tyll van Geel,J. C. Blokhuis,Jonathan Feldman

Education Law, 5th Edition is organized around the belief that students need to read court cases to understand the subtlety and richness of the law, but for legal neophytes, cases without discussion and interpretation are often too difficult to comprehend. This textbook provides a comprehensive survey of the legal problems and issues that confront school administrators and policymakers today. Thus, the text balances an explanation of the important principles of education law, with actual court decisions to illuminate these concepts. The court decisions are carefully edited to highlight issues most relevant to administrators, and each chapter explores implications for policy and practice. This new edition features additional content on bullying, student privacy, free speech rights, teacher evaluation, collective bargaining, and issues relating to Internet and technology as well as revised materials dealing with education policy and updating of references and case law throughout. A companion website with materials for students and instructors, including links to full cases, a glossary of key concepts, and discussion questions to help students further engage with the content.

Agatha Christie

A Companion to the Mystery Fiction

By: J.C. Bernthal

The undisputed "Queen of Crime," Dame Agatha Christie (1890-1976) is the bestselling novelist of all time. As the creator of immortal detectives Hercule Poirot and Jane Marple, she continues to enthrall readers around the world and is drawing increasing attention from scholars, historians, and critics. But Christie wrote far beyond Poirot and Marple. A varied life including war work, archaeology, and two very different marriages provided the backdrop to a diverse body of work. This encyclopedic companion summarizes and explores Christie's entire literary output, including the detective fiction, plays, radio dramas, adaptations, and her little-studied non-crime writing. It details all published works and key themes and characters, as well as the people and places that inspired them, and identifies a trove of uncollected interviews, articles, and unpublished material, including details that have never appeared in print. For the casual reader looking for background information on their favorite mystery to the dedicated scholar tracking down elusive new angles, this companion will provide the most comprehensive and up-to-date information.

The Baseball Economist

The Real Game Exposed

By: J.C. Bradbury

Freakonomics meets Moneyball in this provocative exposé of baseball’s most fiercely debated controversies and some of its oldest, most dearly held myths. Providing far more than a mere collection of numbers, economics professor and popular blogger J.C. Bradbury shines the light of his economic thinking on baseball, exposing the power of tradeoffs, competition, and incentives. Utilizing his own “sabernomic” approach, Bradbury dissects baseball topics such as: • Did steroids have nothing to do with the recent homerun records? Incredibly, Bradbury’s research reveals steroids probably had little impact. • Which players are ridiculously overvalued? Bradbury lists all players by team with their revenue value to the team listed in dollars—including a dishonor role of those players with negative values—updated in paperback to include the 2007 season. • Does it help to lobby for balls and strikes? Statistics alone aren’t enough anymore. This is a refreshing, lucid, and powerful read for fans, fantasy buffs, and players—as well as coaches at all levels—who want to know what is really happening on the field.

Hot Stove Economics

Understanding Baseball's Second Season

By: J.C. Bradbury

The final out of the World Series marks the beginning of baseball's second season, when teams court free agents and orchestrate trades with the hope of building a championship contender. The real and anticipated transactions generate excitement among fans who discuss the merit of moves in the arena informally known as the “hot stove league.” In Hot Stove Economics, economist J.C. Bradbury answers the hot stove league's most important question: what are baseball players worth? With in-depth analysis, Bradbury identifies the game’s best and worst contracts—revealing the bargains, duds, and players who are worth every penny they receive. From minor-league prospects to major-league MVPs, Bradbury examines how factors such as revenue growth, labor rules, and aging— even down to the month in which players are born—shape players' worth and evaluates how well franchises manage their rosters. He broadly applies the principles of economics to baseball in a way that is both interesting and understandable to sports fanatics, team managers, armchair economists and students alike.

The Journals of Captain James Cook on his Voyages of Discovery

Volume III, Part 2: The Voyage of the Resolution and Discovery 1776-1780

By: J.C. Beaglehole

Captain James Cook’s first two voyages of exploration, in 1768-71 and 1772-75, had drawn the modern map of the South Pacific Ocean and had opened the door on the discovery of Antarctica. These expeditions were the subject of Volumes I and II of Dr J.C. Beaglehole’s edition of Cook’s Journals. The third voyage, on which Cook sailed in 1776, was directed to the Northern Hemisphere. Its objective was the discovery of ’a Northern Passage by sea from the Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean’ - the North-west Passage, sought since the 16th century, which would have transformed the pattern of world trade. The search was to take Cook into high latitudes where, as in the Antarctic, his skill in ice navigation was tested. Sailing north from Tahiti in 1778, Cook made the first recorded discovery of the Hawaiian Islands. On March 7 he sighted the Oregon coast in 44° N. The remarkable voyage which he made northward along the Canadian and Alaskan coasts and through Bering Strait to his farthest north in 70° nearly disproved the existence of a navigable passage towards the Atlantic and produced charts of impressive accuracy. Returning to Hawaii to refit, Cook met his death in a clash with the natives as tragic as it seems unnecessary. Dr Beaglehole discusses, with sympathy and insight, the tensions which led Cook, by then a tired man, into miscalculations alien to his own nature and habits. The volume and vitality of the records, both textual and graphic, for this voyage surpass those even for Cook’s second voyage. The surgeons William Anderson and David Samwell, both admirable observers, left journals which are also here printed in full for the first time. The documentation is completed, as in the previous volumes, by appendixes of documents and correspondence and by reproductions of original drawings and paintings mainly by John Webber, the artist of the expedition. In Dr Beaglehole’s words, ’no one can study attentively the records of Cook’s third, and last, v
