A captivating psychological drama, "The Blue Mirror" chronicles the life of Dr. Tracey Silverman, as she tenaciously searches for the elusive answer to the very problem she seeks to escape. Dissatisfaction and conflict accompany her internship at an opulent Beverly Hills hospital, where Tracey's idealist views on medicine are as disregarded, as are her concerns for human reverence. Haunted by a recurring nightmare since childhood, and her inability to develop lasting relationships, Tracey must look to her disturbing past for resolution. In time, love conquers all, but Tracey must first follow the seasons of her heart, and in these coldest of days, she takes a sabbatical in a tiny mountain village in Mexico, where she volunteers her services. Here, Tracey meets a sage, old doctor who immediately becomes her mentor, helping her unravel the convoluted days of her childhood. Dredged up are the repressed memories of devastating relationship, all clearly remembered in a nightmarish vision as seen through a haunting blue mirror. Juxtaposed to personal and professional dilemmas, in "The Blue Mirror," authentic hospital scenes are laced with realistic diagnoses and explicit surgical procedures. Provocative life and death situations faced by both doctors and patients are sensitively portrayed.

Maximizing the Impacts of Academic Research

By: Patrick Dunleavy,Jane Tinkler

This is an invaluable guide to better research communication within and beyond academia. With many years of research experience, the authors provide scholars and scientists with systematic advice on how to ensure their research reaches its potential, and grows the recognition, influence, practical application and public understanding of science and scholarship. It begins by examining how citations work and evaluating the different measures of academic influence, from legacy bibliometric systems to altmetrics and digital metrics. Subsequent chapters show readers how to craft impactful journal articles, work effectively with co-authors, create a portfolio of publications and build a digital strategy that promotes knowledge exchange. Checklists help readers decide how and in what format to publish, enabling them to get their research in front of the right people. Throughout, the authors illustrate impact with data drawn from a wide range of disciplines. Maximizing the Impacts of Academic Research is ideal for PhD students and early career researchers taking their first steps into academic research, experienced researchers mentoring the next generation of scholars and scientists and established academics looking to systematically review and upgrade their existing impact practices.

The Impact of the Social Sciences

How Academics and their Research Make a Difference

By: Simon Bastow,Patrick Dunleavy,Jane Tinkler

The impact agenda is set to shape the way in which social scientists prioritise the work they choose to pursue, the research methods they use and how they publish their findings over the coming decade, but how much is currently known about how social science research has made a mark on society? Based on a three year research project studying the impact of 360 UK-based academics on business, government and civil society sectors, this groundbreaking new book undertakes the most thorough analysis yet of how academic research in the social sciences achieves public policy impacts, contributes to economic prosperity, and informs public understanding of policy issues as well as economic and social changes. The Impact of the Social Sciences addresses and engages with key issues, including: identifying ways to conceptualise and model impact in the social sciences developing more sophisticated ways to measure academic and external impacts of social science research explaining how impacts from individual academics, research units and universities can be improved. This book is essential reading for researchers, academics and anyone involved in discussions about how to improve the value and impact of funded research.

Southwestern Recipes

By: Amie Jane Leavitt

The American Southwest is a land of scorching sunshine and little rainfall. Prickly cactuses and twisted Joshua trees grow in the desert areas, but along the rivers you’ll find plump avocados, lemons, and limes. Corn was one of the fist field crops grown by Southwestern Native Americans. By the time the Spaniards were spreading their Catholic missions from Mexico to northern California, other crops such as beans, squash, tomatoes, peppers, and onions were also flourishing. Find out how these main ingredients have come together in a spicy combination of Spanish and Native American foods to make Southwestern cuisine. In this cookbook, you’ll learn how to make sizzling fajitas, crunchy tacos, stuffed burritos, and quick quesadillas—plus several spicy sides, including salsa, black beans, and guacamole. In fact, you can make twenty-seven delectable Southwestern dishes using these easy recipes—and you’ll find out how to mix and match them to make dozens of other culinary masterpieces.

Plain Jane 2

By: Jane Coma

Plain Jane 2 was produced and written for the readers. The author endured more abuse in one lifetime than anyone should be exposed to. Jane wants her readers to know and understand that if she can fight for her freedom, then so can they. She came to this country and was left stranded with three children no home, no food, no job, and not a single English word in her vocabulary. While her eldest son was kept from her back home by her controlling mother-in-law, she raised her other children without a dime of public assistance or child support. She worked three jobs for a long time, saving money to eventually buy a home for her children and fight tooth and nail to reunite with her estranged son who she left as a child and reunited with as an adult. Finally she saw light at the end of tunnel, but her freedom was never free.
