Primate Paradigms

Sex Roles and Social Bonds

By: Linda Marie Fedigan

This critical review of behavior patterns in nonhuman primates is an excellent study of the importance of female roles in different social groups and their significance in the evolution of human social life. "A book that properly illuminates in rich detail not only developmental and socioecological aspects of primate behavior but also how and why certain questions are asked. In addition, the book frequently focuses on insufficiently answered questions, especially those concerned with the evolution of primate sex differences. Fedigan's book is unique . . . because it places primate adaptations and our explanation of those patterns in a larger intellectual framework that is easily and appropriately connected to many lines of research in different fields (sociology, psychology, anthropology, neurobiology, endocrinology, and biology)—and not in inconsequential ways, either."—James McKenna, American Journal of Primatology "This is the feminist critique of theories of primate and human evolution."—John H. Cook, Nature

Duel for the Crown

Affirmed, Alydar, and Racing's Greatest Rivalry

By: Linda Carroll,David Rosner

A gripping look at the great duel between Affirmed, the last horse to win the Triple Crown—comprised of the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes, and the Belmont Stakes—and his archrival, Alydar. From the moment they first galloped head-to-head in Saratoga Springs, the two chestnut colts showed they were the stuff of racing legend. Alydar, all muscle with a fearsome closing kick, was already the popular favorite to win the Kentucky Derby. Affirmed, deceptively laid-back streamlined elegance, was powered forward by his steely determination not to settle for second place. In the Sport of Kings, the Triple Crown is the most valued prize, requiring a horse to win not just one race, but three: the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes, and the Belmont Stakes. And 1978 would not be just for the record books, but also one of the greatest dramas ever played out in the racing world. There were names to conjure with, worthy of the Sport of Kings. The bloodline of Native Dancer. The teen wonderboy jockey Steve Cauthen. The once unbeatable Calumet Farm—the Damn Yankees of the racing world—now in eclipse and hoping for a comeback. The newcomer Harbor View Farm—owned by brash financier Louis Wolfson, who wouldn’t let even a conviction and a prison sentence for securities violations stand in the way of his dreams of glory. And the racetracks themselves: Belmont, Saratoga, Pimlico. And, of course, Churchill Downs. It has been thirty-five years since Affirmed and Alydar fought for the Triple Crown, thirty-five years when no other horse has won it. Duel for the Crown brings this epic battle to life. Not just two magnificent Thoroughbreds but the colorful human personalities surrounding them, caught up in an ever-intensifying battle of will and wits that lasted until the photo finish of the final Triple Crown race . . . and Alydar and Affirmed leaped into the history books.

The Ultimate Horse Behavior and Training Book

Enlightened and Revolutionary Solutions for the 21st Century

By: Linda Tellington-Jones

Finally, a comprehensive collection of world-renowned equine expert Linda Tellington-Jones' healing equine bodywork and training exercises, for use both on the ground and in the saddle. In one fabulously illustrated book, those new to Linda's approach are provided with a clear, step-by-step introduction to the Tellington Method, while those familiar with her work finally have the ultimate go-to reference. The book is divided into three parts: Part One briefly explains the background of the Tellington Method and then discusses the reasons for unwanted behavior and poor attitude in horses. Part Two, arranged alphabetically, contains a compendium of 72 common behavioral, training and health issues, many of which horse people face on a daily basis. In this A to Z format, from Aggressive to Other Horses to Weaving, Linda discusses the possible reasons for these behaviors or problems and offers conventional methods of solving these challenges, as well as training solutions using the Tellington Method. Part Three presents—for the first time in one volume—the complete body of work that up the Tellington Method: the Tellington TTouches, Ground Exercises, and Ridden Work. At the end of this section, there is also a detailed case study, which includes 49 photographs showing every step along the way to successfully teaching your horse to load.

Beyond the Ballroom

6 Historical Romances

By: Marie Patrick,Pema Donyo,Rue Allyn,Cody Young,Linda Kepner,Jennifer Lawler

Ready for a change of pace from Regency London's ton? Then check out the captivating and diverse historical romances in this digital bundle. From the Wild West to medieval times, against the backdrop of India's struggle for independence and America's turbulent sixties, these couples defy the conventions and constraints of their times and risk everything to end up in each other's arms. A Kiss in the Shadows: Driven by his single-minded mission to make the man who killed his brother pay, Brock MacDermott rides from town to town on a lonely quest, careful to keep emotional attachments at arm's length--until young, beautiful Stevie Rae Buchanan insists on joining his hunt to exact her own revenge. There's no room for romance when you're chasing down a dangerous criminal, but when undeniable feelings develop between them, Stevie Rae and Brock must decide whether justice is worth sacrificing everything else. Revolutionary Hearts: To complete his mission in India's fight for independence, General Carton--a.k.a. U.S. undercover operative Warren Khan--must hide both his true objective and his heritage. But once he meets the captivating Parineeta, who holds the key to both his freedom and capturing her brother, a suspected anarchist, he finds the subterfuge more difficult than anticipated. Knight Errant: Beguine follower Juliana Verault holds the key to upending the power structure throughout Europe--a letter from the pope that could radically change the church's stance on women--but only if she can dodge the bounty hunter her cousin, King Edward I of England, has sent for her. Sir Robert Clarwyn has never failed to bring home his target before...but he has also never encountered a quarry like Lady Juliana. Katie's Hero: Katie's got a guilty secret and she's hiding out in London. Michael is a handsome young pilot who likes to play the hero, especially when there's a pretty girl involved, but duty calls him away just when Katie needs him the most. Wounded and full of regrets, he's not sure she'll give him a second glance. Tom is a lovable rogue, or that's what he likes to think. He's touring the world at the army's expense, but he's missing Katie more every day. This wonderful WWII love triangle will enthrall readers. Second Chance: Times are tight in 1969 for Bishou Howard, so she accepts a job as an interpreter for an attendee at a university conference. Louis Dessant, a French-speaking tobacco millionaire from Reunion Island, is attractive, wealthy--and carries a dark secret she accidentally begins to unravel. As the feelings between them build, she takes a risk and travels halfway around the world to his tropical island to get to the bottom of the enigma. But will Louis welcome her, or was this a monumental mistake? The Winter Promise: In the fall of 1053, Lady Imma has one loyalty: to help her uncle, the king of Wales, win his war against the English. Lord Robert, the steward of Wessex, has one loyalty as well: to keep his beloved Wessex safe from enemies. When she is forced to seek shelter in his keep, they must decide if they can listen to their hearts--or if they would be wiser never to trust each other. Sensuality Level: Sensual

By: Linda Pierce Plues

Eric and Adam are two normal American boysexcept they are growing up throughout Africa. Even though their mother tries to keep their enthusiasm in check, the boys seek adventure in every single country they live. With a diplomat for a father, theres always somewhere new to go. In a series of vignettes shared by their mother, author Linda Pierce Plues, the boys display a knack for making friends. The first one they meet in Kinshasa is a baby pigmy chimp, which they dont hesitate bringing home. They also run into other animals, including a chameleon that bites and holds onto Erics nose. But nothing surprises their mother more than a giant rat that Adam hunts down in Abidjan. The boys exploits go beyond the imaginable, including a harrowing, one-hundred-mile ride from the Kano airport to their new home in Kaduna, Nigeria.

Highway Safety

Foresight Issues Challenge DOT's Efforts to Assess and Respond to New Technology-Based Trends

By: Linda J. Washington

Fatalities on U.S. roads now total over 40,000 each year. Future reductions may require the Dept. of Transportation (DoT) to address new trends such as evolving crash-avoidance technologies and rapidly changing electronic devices that may distract drivers who use them on the road. This report examines how DoT is addressing fast-moving trends such as these, and examines how DoT is: (1) deciding on responses to the crash avoidance and electronic distractions trends --given available evidence and uncertainties; (2) developing new evidence on these trends' safety impacts; and (3) communicating with the Congress about these and other trends and related issues. Includes recommendations. Illustrations.

Diaries of a Dwarven Rifleman

By: Michael Tinker Pearce,Linda Pearce

Engvyr is still young as his people, the Dwarves, reckon things, but he is already a distinguished veteran of the elite Dwarven rifle regiments and a Ranger of the Mountain Guards. Now he wants nothing more than to make a place for himself, perhaps settle down and raise a family. But when a new enemy rises in the North, he finds himself at the center of the conflict, with not merely the freedom of his people but the fate of all of humanity hanging the balance... and the habit of heroism is a hard one to break. In Dwarven Rifleman, magic, science and technology work hand-in-hand to create a new kind of fantasy world. Told with humor and humanity, it is a story of sweeping events seen from a ground-level perspective by people living in and shaping the unique history of their world.

Atlas of Dental Radiography in Dogs and Cats

By: Gregg A. DuPont,Linda J. DeBowes

Is it ever appropriate to diagnose and treat oral and dental problems without knowing the full extent of the problem? With more than 50% of anatomical structures and associated pathologies located below the gingivae and unseen to the eye, that's the reality without the use of high-quality, accurately interpreted radiographs.

Correct positioning techniques for producing diagnostic radiographs as well as helpful tips and pitfalls when obtaining quality radiographs are logically presented. This approach helps you produce consistently high-quality radiographs, sharpen your interpretive skills, and confidently treat a wide range of dental problems. - Presents the most logical and useful approach to dental and oral radiography, using actual anatomical photographs for accurate clinical correlation - Depicts original and color-labeled radiographs side-by-side for accurate identification of normal and abnormal structures - Helps both veterinarians and technicians take the best possible radiographs, interpret them accurately, make sound treatment decisions, and monitor results - Provides clear, technical guidance for taking quality radiographs and identifying artefacts and results of improper imaging technique and film development - Presents clear pictorial instructions – from 2 angles – for correct positioning of the X-ray beam and intraoral films - Offers new opportunities for expanded professional services and revenues in your practice - Provides proof of compliance with standards of care for medical record documentation, helping you legally protect yourself, your staff, and your practice

The Widowers of the Aristocracy: Boxed Set

By: Linda Rae Sande

Four full-length sensual Regency romances make up this boxed set about four widowers. When Isabella believes she has witnessed her mother's murder at the hands of her father in THE DREAM OF A DUCHESS, she rides off to London in search of the man her mother always said she could go to in case of trouble. To keep her safe, Octavius, Duke of Huntington, agrees to hide Isabella in his country estate—and to allow her access to his stables and horses. But what about his heart? When archaeologist Jasper, Viscount Henley, is caught kissing Marianne, he marries her despite knowing she's nearly blind. Determined to show his new bride the wonders of the Roman world as part of his next expedition—their wedding trip—Jasper will do whatever it takes for her to see more clearly, even if his own vision is clouded by a revelation in THE VISION OF A VISCOUNTESS. When the headmistress of London’s premiere finishing school dies, her son, Theodore Streater, is desperate to find a replacement. He’s a bank clerk and has no idea how to run a girl’s school. So when Daisy Albright appears to apply for the position, he hires her on the spot—even though he would rather hire her as his mistress. Left with only one arm from the last war, Teddy would prefer to take a wife, but who will marry a one-armed man? A former spy, Daisy has a secret she’d rather her employer not know, especially as she grows more fond of him. When she discovers what Mrs. Streater had already arranged on behalf of the school, though, her future employment and the fate of the school will be at risk in THE CONUNDRUM OF A CLERK. What is real and what is fiction when it comes to Viscount Marcus Lancaster's life? A widower, he's imagined a life with Charity, a widowed countess, and he's determined to make it become a reality. Never mind that the matchmaker wants nothing to do with marriage. But she does have a secret desire in THE CHARITY OF A VISCOUNT.

Lord of the North

By: Linda Pearce,Michael Tinker Pearce

The Baasgarta's capitol has fallen but the war is far from over. Tens of thousands of enslaved dwarves remain in the north waiting to be liberated. Meanwhile Engvyr must come to grips with his new title and job, not the least of which is figuring out what exactly that job entails. It's all very well to be named the Lord Warden of the North, but no one seems to know exactly what he is supposed to be doing. Meanwhile in the nearby human-controlled port city-state of Taerneal something is going on- something involving the Dwarves. But the City Council is resistant, and there is more afoot than it appears. Before long Engvyr must intervene directly, though it means he could potentially find himself facing a war on two fronts. Add to this the dwarven regiments are having their own issues, chief among them trying to figure out where the Baasgarta have gone...It's a mess all around, but one thing is becoming increasingly clear... whatever is going on it's worse than they think.

Speech of the Grail

A Journey Toward Speaking that Heals & Transforms

By: Linda Sussman

In Speech of the Grail, storyteller and ceremonialist Linda Sussman explores a new way to speak, one that heals and transforms. She takes for her guide Wolfram von Eschenbach's epic tale of the Grail, showing how it depicts a path of initiation toward healing speech --to "doing the truth" in word and action. "The Grail! The word stirs a deep response in the Western imagination. Joseph Campbell called the medieval stories where it is first mentioned 'the founding myth of Western civilization,' because 'according to this mythology, there is no fixed law, no established knowledge of god, set up by prophets or priests, that can stand against the revelation of a life lived with integrity in the spirit of its own brave truth.' Campbell and many other scholars, artists, and seekers have seen the Western wisdom path disclosed in the image of each knight entering the forest where no one else has made a path. The quest is to recover the elusive Grail, thereby returning its sustenance to the world. The presence of the Grail nurtures an invisible web of relationships that connect individual destiny to service of others and to the earth, thereby granting meaning" (Linda Sussman, from her introduction). Sussman begins with a beautiful retelling of the story, allowing readers to inwardly reproduce the potent inner images of the text. Then she shows that it is not so much a path toward perfection as a recovery of the proper relationship with our own imperfections. She shows, too, that it is a path in which male and female aspects work together to overcome evil.

Rachel of the Sword

By: Linda Carnahan

Rachel of the Sword by Linda Carnahan Rachel Alice Grayson suddenly wakes up in a different world. Zagrith the daemon witch takes her from the safety of her home in America to Carrines, a mystical place of magic, aelfs, faeries, dwarves, humans, and half-aelfs but she soon finds that the land is constantly threatened by daemons, crazed mutants and monsters. In order to earn her way back home, Zagrith demands she fulfills a mission: she must bring a rusty enchanted sword to the dark mage, a rogue, who is destined to be the Protector of the Universe and if she is successful will defeat the hungry Gothfyl. She prepares to meet Michael, the dark mage, who has been devoid of emotion since he was a small child. When Rachel arrives, his emotions suddenly return and he blames her for all of his troubles. Rachel must earn his trust to make him believe that he is the rightful one to use the sword or the prophecy regarding the mage will never come true. But a problem arises-the sword is found to be tainted with daemon magic; it is no longer pure. Now, she not only has to deal with Michael's unpredictable behavior, she also has to contend with the people believing that she is a daemon witch that has cast a spell upon Michael to destroy him. As she rides with Michael and his Black Company to solve the mystery of the sword, Carrines' peace is threatened by the Gothfyl's minions as it tries to stop them. Should they prevent it from breaking through the barrier between its universe and theirs, it will be denied the sweet tasty energy it hungers for. And as the mages study the life sword and the prophecy, it becomes clear that Rachel's roll in saving their world is more than just giving the sword to Michael. She must get Michael to see the great part his nemesis the daemon lords will play in his destiny. Together they must persuade the races of Carrines to set aside their prejudices to defeat the forces of the Gothfyl. About the Author Linda Carnahan is a retired detention officer of Gila County Sheriff's Office. She is a very active member of the community having been a founding member and first vice chair of the Bullion Plaza Museum and Cultural Center.

Midnight Fire

By: Linda Ladd

As the Revolutionary War rages, a sheltered beauty battles her own heart over the man who has vowed to protect her in the second Fire Trilogy novel. Carlisle Kincaid is as untouchable and unresponsive in her beautiful perfection as a marble statue. Educated by devout nuns in a strict convent, she instinctively repulses the attentions of any man, denying the haughty and reckless nature promised in her burning gaze. Chase Lancaster, a rugged adventurer on his own, is sworn to protect her seemingly indomitable virtue...while he struggles to deny the enchantment she casts over him. As a revolutionary war rages around them, they are torn apart by mistrust and the strain of divided loyalties-—even as they continue to be drawn together by need and desire. Will they fall prey to the treacherous longings raging in their souls as the ravages of war devastate everything around them?

Forced Blood the Norseman

By: Linda Newton-Perry

In all the Ages of Man, there have been decent and honorable men. Jarl Brand Ketilsson is one such man. He is a leader who does not seek or covet wealth, but wishes only to maintain peace in his realm. Unfortunately, Ketilsson is forced to go to battle and shed blood in an effort to achieve his goal. But, he will fight-fight to the death to save his people and those aligned with him. Set against the historical backdrop of ninth-century Scandinavia, when Viking history was every bit as romantic as it was brutal, Forced Blood: The Norseman offers a multidimensional depiction of the Norsemen who survived the Viking Age in their own country. With its vivid attention to detail, Forced Blood: The Norseman is an epic tale of one man's strength and courage against those who would rob him of his land, his culture, and his life.
