No Place to Hide (Hidden Identity Book #3)

A Novel

By: Lynette Eason

It's not every day you see your childhood friend and one-time crush on national news. Jackie Sellers just wishes it were under different circumstances. She can't believe that Ian Lockwood is wanted in connection with a terrorist plot, and she's determined to find him and help him clear his name. But she's not the only one looking. The FBI wants him captured. The bad guys want him dead. Ian just wants to stay alive long enough to save thousands of innocent lives. Lynette Eason throws readers right into the action from page one, propelling them along a dangerous road and asking the provocative question of how far we'd be willing to go if we were up against a wall.

Humanism, Capitalism, and Rhetoric in Early Modern England

The Separation of the Citizen from the Self

By: Lynette Hunter

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Humanism, Capitalism, and Rhetoric in Early Modern England

The Separation of the Citizen from the Self

By: Lynette Hunter

This book offers an interdisciplinary approach to concepts of the self associated with the development of humanism in England, and to strategies for both inclusion and exclusion in structuring the early modern nation state. It addresses writings about rhetoric and behavior from 1495–1660, beginning with Erasmus’ work on sermo or the conversational rhetoric between friends, which considers the reader as an ‘absent audience’, and following the transference of this stance to a politics whose broadening democratic constituency needed a legitimate structure for governance-at-a-distance. Unusually, the book brings together the impact on behavior of these new concepts about rhetoric, with the growth of the publishing industry, and the emergence of capitalism and of modern medicine. It explores the effects on the formation of the ‘subject’ and political legitimation of the early liberal nation state. It also lays new ground for scholarship concerned with what is left out of both selfhood and politics by that state, studying examples of a parallel development of the ‘self’ defined by friendship not only from educated male writers, but also from women writers and writers concerned with socially ‘middling’ and laboring people and the poor.

Passion's Deep Spell

By: Lynette Vinet

Marlee Stafford was no fool. She knew the handsome, arrogant Richard Arden had married her for her money, just as she'd wedded him for his aristocratic name. But Marlee wasn't about to give up all control to the too-confident baron. She would not sign over her inheritance until she'd enticed her handsome, broad-shouldered husband into desiring only her. But when his hungry kisses and fierce loving began to ignite her most intimate desires, Marlee knew that she'd made a weighty error for this mysterious man harbored a dark secret, and now his masterful lovemaking was holding her helplessly under HIS spell! Lark Arden's passions ran deep. Before meeting Marlee, his one mission and desire was to gain the money for a new ship. But when Lark took on the masquerade of being his recently deceased cousin Richard, he never expected his blue-eyed proxy bride to tempt him beyond sanity. Lark had planned only to "borrow" the money from Marlee, then flee. He never planned on stealing her virtue, but how could he resist caressing her silky limbs, tasting her sweet lips, and sampling this dark beauty's fiery passions? And how could he live with desiring the very woman he'd soon betray?"--Page 2 of cover

Public Housing and the Legacy of Segregation

By: Margery Austin Turner,Susan J. Popkin,Lynette Rawlings

For the past two decades the United States has been transforming distressed public housing communities, with three ambitious goals: replace distressed developments with healthy mixed-income communities; help residents relocate to affordable housing, often in the private market; and empower former public housing families toward economic self-sufficiency. The transformation has focused on deconcentrating poverty, but not on the underlying role of racial segregation in creating these distressed communities. In Public Housing and the Legacy of Segregation, scholars and public housing officials assess whether--and how--public housing policies can simultaneously address the problems of poverty and race.

Haptics

Haptics

By: Lynette Jones

An accessible, nontechnical overview of active touch sensing, from sensory receptors in the skin to tactile surfaces on flat screen displays. Haptics, or haptic sensing, refers to the ability to identify and perceive objects through touch. This is active touch, involving exploration of an object with the hand rather than the passive sensing of a vibration or force on the skin. The development of new technologies, including prosthetic hands and tactile surfaces for flat screen displays, depends on our knowledge of haptics. In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, Lynette Jones offers an accessible overview of haptics, or active touch sensing, and its applications. Jones explains that haptics involves integrating information from touch and kinesthesia—that is, information both from sensors in the skin and from sensors in muscles, tendons, and joints. The challenge for technology is to reproduce in a virtual world some of the sensations associated with physical interactions with the environment. Jones maps the building blocks of the tactile system, the receptors in the skin and the skin itself, and how information is processed at this interface with the external world. She describes haptic perception, the processing of haptic information in the brain; haptic illusions, or distorted perceptions of objects and the body itself; tactile and haptic displays, from braille to robotic systems; tactile compensation for other sensory impairments; surface haptics, which creates virtual haptic effects on physical surfaces such as touch screens; and the development of robotic and prosthetic hands that mimic the properties of human hands.
