Book excerpt: In the wealthy suburb of Edina, Minnesota, Peter Kaufman has been a long-time serial wife abuser. He's terrorized four ex-wives and started on his fifth. Occasionally over the years, these women have been getting together for mutual support cake and coffee and fun fantasies of revenge, perhaps even murder. Now, suddenly, Kaufman has turned up dead. Did one or more of the wives conspire to "dust" him?Bobbie Druke is one of the detectives assigned to obtain the evidence for an indictment and conviction. She's surprised to find that her assignment is Georgia Pruitt, a beautiful and respected acquaintance from the past. As Georgia's tale unfolds, Bobbie is drawn into a series of sinister events that indicate that the abuse has not stopped with Peter's death. He seems to be virtually reaching out from the grave to attack the lives of Georgia and the other wives. Bobbie is drawn closer to Georgia as the focus of her investigation changes from prosecuting her to exonerating her and to protecting her from whomever or whatever is threatening to kill her. When Bobbie's evolving theory regarding Peter Kaufman's death finally gels, she finds that her concepts of justice have been totally altered.

Book Synopsis Between Dreaming and Recognition Seeking by : Hubert J. M. Hermans
Download or read book Between Dreaming and Recognition Seeking written by Hubert J. M. Hermans and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2012-07-13 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can an internationally recognized theory contribute towards the enrichment of your own life? In Between Dreaming and Recognition Seeking, Hubert J. M. Hermans, the creator of Dialogical Self Theory, applies this theory to his own life and explains how readers can do the same. He describes several destabilizing events from throughout his lifetime and investigates how they changed his own self. Hermans discusses such events as the breakdown of his self-esteem at school, the experience of falling in love as a “revolution” in his self, the experience of “paradise lost,” and the tensions from living in the border zone of a traditional, modern, and post-modern self. Through a series of thought-provoking questions, Hermans invites readers to explore the long-term meaning of significant events in their own lives. Between Dreaming and Recognition Seeking provides an accessible way to learn about Dialogical Self Theory and how it can be used for one’s self-development.
Download or read book Versailles written by Kathryn Davis and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2013-08-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Versailles is the story of an expansive spirit locked in a pretty body and an impossible moment in history. As the novel begins, fourteen-year-old Marie Antoinette is traveling from Austria to France to meet her fiancé, the mild, abstracted Louis. He will become the sixteenth Louis to reign in France, and Antoinette will be his queen, hemmed in by towering hairdos, the xenophobic suspicion of her subjects, the misogyny of her detractors, the larger-than-life figures of Mirabeau, Du Barry, Robespierre, and the manifold twists and turns of the palace she calls home. The novel moves from room to room, from garden to fountain, occasionally breaking into playlets in which we glimpse characters struggling to mind their step in the great ballroom of the world. Driving our tour is the relentless engine of time, that friend to youth, for whom anything is possible. Antoinette gives birth to four children, two of whom will outlive her; she falls in love; she dies at the guillotine. A meditation on time and the soul’s true journey within it, Versailles is at once wittily entertaining and astonishingly wise.

Book excerpt: Greed and avarice drove a group of Nigerians to Europe and they all engaged in inept schemes to make money. Naomi and Martins had met working as farm labourers in Foggia, Southern Italy, but no sooner had they met when the girl moved with a friend to Turin. There, she engaged in prostitution, spearheaded by Big Ben and Betty, two die-hard pimps and drug couriers. They became rich and influential amongst the immigrant communities, but the fast lane is often strewn with spikes and Naomi and Ben paid the highest price Plagued by internal guilt and the lust for heaven, Martins became repentant and embraced Christ and God in his infinite mercies, showed him the only way to eternal peace. In these days of intense emigration, Nnanor-Felixsons human-interest book simply demonstrates the need to respect the laws and ordinances of host nations and above all, embrace righteousness in all its facets.
Book Synopsis Mechanical Choices by : Michael S. Moore
Download or read book Mechanical Choices written by Michael S. Moore and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-08 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mechanical Choices details the intimate connection that exists between morality and law: the morality we use to blame others for their misdeeds and the criminal law that punishes them for these misdeeds. This book shows how both law and morality presuppose the accuracy of common sense, a centuries-old psychology that defines people as rational agents who make honorable choices and act for just reasons. It then shows how neuroscience is commonly taken to challenge these fundamental psychological assumptions. Such challenges--four in number--are distinguished from each other by the different neuroscientific facts from which they arise: the fact that human choices are caused by brain events; the fact that those choices don't cause the actions that are their objects but are only epiphenomenal to those choices; the fact that those choices are identical to certain physical events in the brain; and the fact that human subjects are quite fallible in their knowledge of what they are doing and why. The body of this book shows how such challenges are either based on faulty facts or misconceived as to the relevance of such facts to responsibility. The book ends with a detailed examination of the neuroscience of addiction, an examination which illustrates how neuroscience can help rather than challenge both law and morality in their quest to accurately define excuses from responsibility.

Book Synopsis The Tinkerer's Accomplice by : J. Scott Turner
Download or read book The Tinkerer's Accomplice written by J. Scott Turner and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2010-09-30 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people, when they contemplate the living world, conclude that it is a designed place. So it is jarring when biologists come along and say this is all wrong. What most people see as design, they say--purposeful, directed, even intelligent--is only an illusion, something cooked up in a mind that is eager to see purpose where none exists. In these days of increasingly assertive challenges to Darwinism, the question becomes acute: is our perception of design simply a mental figment, or is there something deeper at work? Physiologist Scott Turner argues eloquently and convincingly that the apparent design we see in the living world only makes sense when we add to Darwin's towering achievement the dimension that much modern molecular biology has left on the gene-splicing floor: the dynamic interaction between living organisms and their environment. Only when we add environmental physiology to natural selection can we begin to understand the beautiful fit between the form life takes and how life works. In The Tinkerer's Accomplice, Scott Turner takes up the question of design as a very real problem in biology; his solution poses challenges to all sides in this critical debate.
