The Veranuxz Experiment

The Growth Of A Duke

By: Oliver Fuug

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

In the untold beginnings of Earth’s history, a highly-sophisticated alien race seeded the planet with human DNA. In that intervention, they planted the Kowalewski bloodline, a lineage that inherited not just more of the interstellar farming scientists’ DNA than any of other, but also an uncontrollable yearning for knowledge and power. The Kowalewski bloodline traces its roots to ancient Sumer and a revered medicine man named Tao, who initiated early experiments on the human brain. Whether he acts purely out of spiritual curiosity, in pursuit of scientific knowledge, or is working at the shadowy behest of parties unknown is unclear What is clear is that Tao’s grisly experiments on mapping the human brain are passed forward to his descendants and that their knowledge has increased and dispersed as the bloodline has branched and branched again. In Germany at the dawn of the twentieth century, Franz and Edwin Kowalewski are modern scions of the ancient bloodline of Tao. Brilliant scientists, these twins have been operating on each other for most of their adult lives, but recently there are hints of spies and/or saboteurs accessing their research. They move their operations to an old castle in Berlin and send word to their sister, Hannelore, to break off her studies and join them. It is in Berlin that the Kowalewski siblings bear witness to a quantum leap in their research. Franz’s brain, after countless operations at the hands of Edwin, has started rewiring itself. Furthermore, Franz has developed frightening telekinetic abilities. When their research is abruptly cut short by the man who will become the ruthless antagonist of the story, it falls to their nephew Rudolf, Hannelore’s grandson, to volunteer his brain and continue his uncles’ work. In Rudolf, the miracle first seen in Franz’s brain is not only repeated but intensified. Can Rudolf become “the Duke” and harness this long-sought power of the brain in ways seemingly unimaginable? Or will his metamorphosis also be cut short? Major General Schmidt has long known about the bloodline of Tao and has been watching the Kowalewskis with care. As Schmidt recognizes the potency of their research for transforming the German military, an epic rivalry is born between Schmidt and Rudolf, a rivalry that will play out across Europe and through the eras of Kaiser Wilhelm II and Hitler. The first of a planned series, The Veranuxz Experiments is a dark, bloodthirsty tale of betrayal, revenge, intrigue, and the morality of power that spans two world wars and beyond.

The Veranuxz Experiment: Sons

By: Oliver Fuug

Young Gleven has been afforded a life quite unlike most: raised in the beauty and seclusion of the Bella Coola Valley, his companions are protective animals of the forest, and his father and uncle possess superhuman powers. But after his father, Rudolph, goes missing towards the end of World War II and Uncle Hanze sets out to find him, a mysterious young woman, Crystal (Eve), shows up at the door with a stern warning that may jeopardize Rudolph’s well-being—enemies of the past have resurfaced, and the family’s telekinetic research has been used to create a powerful and destructive force, Subject One. Determined to help, Gleven too is given mind powers, but Crystal’s gift doesn’t go unnoticed by the powers that be and soon Angelic, the Angel of Death, is forced to intervene. She delivers Gleven to a spacecraft of Veranian aliens, who recruit him for twenty years of cosmic training to stop a cosmic juggernaut from wiping out their race. Meanwhile, Hanze tracks Rudy into the jungles of Argentina, only to be imprisoned by the maniacal Kurt (Adam) alongside Rudy, Reginald, and General Schmidt. Two decades later, they are united with Thasez (Jesus) and rescued by Gleven. Together, the groups must embark to stop the power-hungry tyrant Quazarth, a master dark matter manipulator, from finding the Alpha Atom and destroying the universe.

The Silver Empire

How Germany Created Its First Common Currency

By: Oliver Volckart

The Silver Empire is the first comprehensive account of how the Holy Roman Empire created a common currency in the sixteenth century. The problems that gave rise to the widespread desire to introduce a common a currency were myriad. While trade was able to cope with-and even to benefit from-the parallel circulation of many different types of coin, it nevertheless harmed both the common people and the political authorities. The authorities in particular suffered from neighbours who used their comparatively good money as raw material to mint poor imitations. Debasing their own coinage provided an, at best, short-term solution. Over the medium and long term, it drove the members of the Empire into rounds of competitive debasements, until they realised that a common currency was the only answer that addressed the core of the problem. Oliver Volckart examines the conditions that shaped the monetary outlook of the member states of the Empire, paying particular attention to the uneven access to silver and gold. Following closely the negotiations that prepared the common currency, he is able to illuminate the interest groups that were formed, what their agendas and ulterior motives were, how alliances were forged, and how it was eventually possible to obtain majority agreement on what a common currency should look like: a silver-based currency that was introduced in 1559-66. In fact, in contrast to what historians once believed, the common currency they achieved turns out to have functioned not significantly worse than other currencies of the time: it had similar problems and similar advantages as the money issued by more centralized governments.

Portraits of John Quincy Adams and His Wife

By: Andrew Oliver

This volume affords a visual documentation of the most varied political career in American history and exemplifies the work of the principal American portraitists from the days of Copley and Stuart to the dawn of the Daguerrean era. Included in the 159 illustrations are all the known life portraits, busts, and silhouettes of John Quincy and Louisa Catherine Adams, along with important replicas, copies, engravings, and representative likenesses of their siblings. The book is organized into seven chapters which generally coincide with the major divisions of John Quincy Adams' political career. Within each chapter are discussed the artists, their relationships with the Adams's, and the provenance of each of their works. A chronology of John Quincy Adams' life for each period accompanies the chapter to which it pertains. Information about the size of each likeness, the inscriptions if any, the date executed, and present ownership where known is summarized in the List of Illustrations. The Adams's, as they watched themselves age over the years in the marble, ink, or oil of the artists who portrayed them, recorded much by way of commentary on the artistic talent and process at hand. The author makes use of the diaries and correspondence preserved in the Adams Papers, thus combining a learned appreciation with an intimate glimpse of Adams's as they saw themselves.

Footprints on the Sands of Time

RAF Bomber Command Prisoners of War in Germany 1939–1945

By: Oliver Clutton-Brock

The author of RAF Evaders provides a comprehensive reference of the airmen of Bomber Command who were held in German captivity during WWII. This extensive book is divided into two part. The first, which has eighteen chapters, deals with German POW camps as they were opened, in chronological order and to which the Bomber Command POWs were sent. Each chapter includes anecdotes and stories of the men in the camps—capture, escape, illness, and murder—and illustrates the awfulness of captivity even in German hands. Roughly one in every twenty captured airmen never returned home. The first part also covers subjects such as how the POWs were repatriated during the war; how they returned at war’s end; the RAF traitors; the war crimes; and the vital importance of the Red Cross. The style is part reference, part gripping narrative, and the book will correct many historical inaccuracies, and includes previously unpublished photographs. The second part comprises an annotated list of ALL 10, 995 RAF Bomber Command airmen who were taken prisoner, together with an extended introduction. The two parts together are the fruit of exhaustive research and provide an important contribution to our knowledge of the war and a unique reference work not only for the serious RAF historian but for the ex-POWs themselves and their families and anyone with an interest in the RAF in general and captivity in particular.

The Critical Humanism of the Frankfurt School as Social Critique

By: Oliver Kozlarek

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Critical Humanism of the Frankfurt School as Social Critique

By: Oliver Kozlarek

This book aims to extract a kind of Critical Humanism from the works of prominent members of the Frankfurt School. Oliver Kozlarek argues that what is compelling about this kind of restitution of humanism is the fact that it sought to be understood not as a conceptual-theoretical construction, but as a practice of critical social and cultural research. This means that it does not orient itself to an ideal image of the human being, but to making inhuman conditions of our current societies visible. It is above all in this sense that humanism is no longer understood in a Humboldtian, educational sense. Rather, it is about using critical social research as a political practice.

The Insect Crisis: The Fall of the Tiny Empires That Run the World

The Insect Crisis: The Fall of the Tiny Empires That Run the World

By: Oliver Milman

A devastating examination of how collapsing insect populations worldwide threaten everything from wild birds to the food on our plate. From ants scurrying under leaf litter to bees able to fly higher than Mount Kilimanjaro, insects are everywhere. Three out of every four of our planet’s known animal species are insects. In The Insect Crisis, acclaimed journalist Oliver Milman dives into the torrent of recent evidence that suggests this kaleidoscopic group of creatures is suffering the greatest existential crisis in its remarkable 400-million-year history. What is causing the collapse of the insect world? Why does this alarming decline pose such a threat to us? And what can be done to stem the loss of the miniature empires that hold aloft life as we know it? With urgency and great clarity, Milman explores this hidden emergency, arguing that its consequences could even rival climate change. He joins the scientists tracking the decline of insect populations across the globe, including the soaring mountains of Mexico that host an epic, yet dwindling, migration of monarch butterflies; the verdant countryside of England that has been emptied of insect life; the gargantuan fields of U.S. agriculture that have proved a killing ground for bees; and an offbeat experiment in Denmark that shows there aren’t that many bugs splattering into your car windshield these days. These losses not only further tear at the tapestry of life on our degraded planet; they imperil everything we hold dear, from the food on our supermarket shelves to the medicines in our cabinets to the riot of nature that thrills and enlivens us. Even insects we may dread, including the hated cockroach, or the stinging wasp, play crucial ecological roles, and their decline would profoundly shape our own story. By connecting butterfly and bee, moth and beetle from across the globe, the full scope of loss renders a portrait of a crisis that threatens to upend the workings of our collective history. Part warning, part celebration of the incredible variety of insects, The Insect Crisis is a wake-up call for us all.

The Governance of Global Competition

Competence Allocation in International Competition Policy

By: Oliver Budzinski

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Governance of Global Competition

Competence Allocation in International Competition Policy

By: Oliver Budzinski

. . . highly recommendable to anyone interested in international competition policy. Arndt Christiansen, European Competition Law Review This book provides a comprehensive and refreshing analysis of the competition issues raised by the globalisation of markets. It draws on a very wide range of economic and legal sources to assess the manifold proposals for controlling the competitive forces released by the freeing up of world markets. All those interested in these important and largely unresolved issues will find it an invaluable source of reference. Michael A. Utton, University of Reading, UK and Dongbei University of Finance and Economics, Dalian, China The globalization of market competition and business behaviour fosters globalization of cartels and monopolising mergers that can lead to abusive and predatory strategies. The globalization of competition therefore also demands an internationalization of competition policy. However, Oliver Budzinski is realistic in his assertion that supranational competition governance must be built upon the existing, predominantly national, regimes. The resulting multilevel system of antitrust institutions and authorities, he argues, is problematic for the horizontal and vertical allocation of competences. This book employs the economics of federalism to create an analytical framework which can be used for comparative analysis of stylised competence allocation rules. The result is a proposal for a sound international multilevel competition policy system that combines elements of both centralized and decentralized governance. This book provides an innovative and unique perspective on international competition policy and will be of interest to economists, legal scientists and competition authorities as well as academics and practitioners of international governance and international relations and politics.

Monetary Policy under Uncertainty

Historical Origins, Theoretical Foundations, and Empirical Evidence

By: Oliver Sauter

Oliver Sauter analyzes three aspects of monetary policy under uncertainty. First he shows that the terms risk and uncertainty are often wrongly used as synonyms despite their different meanings. The second aspect is the proper examination and incorporation of uncertainty into a monetary policy framework. The author undertakes systematization with a closer look at each identified form of uncertainty. Thirdly, he focuses on the quantification of uncertainty from two different perspectives, either from a market perspective or from a central bank perspective.

Father Bauer and the Great Experiment

The Genesis of Canadian Olympic Hockey

By: Greg Oliver

A pioneering and beloved Canadian legend comes to life Father David Bauer changed lives — at the rink, in the classroom, and at the pulpit. Bauer’s dream created the first truly national Canadian hockey team. In 1963, that unique group represented Canada abroad and were committed to both country and to Father Bauer. Whether shepherding the hockey program at St. Michael’s College in Toronto or the men’s national team out of the University of British Columbia, Bauer was both spiritual leader and trailblazer. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Times; -webkit-text-stroke: #000000} span.s1 {font-kerning: none} Through exhaustive research and countless interviews, author Greg Oliver explores a Canadian icon, the teams that he put on the ice, and the rocky, almost unfathomable years of the 1970s when Canada didn’t play international hockey. Finally, for the first time ever, the whole story of Father Bauer’s critical importance to Canada’s game is told in the rich detail it deserves, and a beloved icon is celebrated for his contributions to our nation’s sporting history.

This interdisciplinary study opens up a fascinating interaction between art and theater. It shows how the mythological vase-paintings of fourth-century B.C. Greeks, especially those settled in southern Italy, are more meaningful for those who had seen the myths enacted in the popular new medium of tragedy. Of some 300 relevant vases, 109 are reproduced and accompanied by a picture-by-picture discussion. This book supplies a rich and unprecedented resource from a neglected treasury of painting.

The author classifies all reduced, indecomposable fusion systems over finite -groups of sectional rank at most . The resulting list is very similar to that by Gorenstein and Harada of all simple groups of sectional -rank at most . But this method of proof is very different from theirs, and is based on an analysis of the essential subgroups which can occur in the fusion systems.
