Specializing in high-risk rescue missions, this team goes wherever the job takes them... Natural disasters and watery risks—their only chance of survival is to rescue each other. Alisha Bailey traded a life of privilege for the adrenaline-fueled world of search-and-rescue. She’s sacrificed a lot to prove she’s more than just a pretty face or a business pawn—even denying her growing attraction to her teammate. Devon Leblanc has always masked his fascination with Alisha behind their competitive banter. But when a natural disaster forces them to set aside their rivalry, the sparks between them ignite into a fiery passion. As they explore their newfound connection, their appreciation for each other’s skills deepens—both on the field and in the bedroom. But as unexplained accidents start plaguing the Lifeline team, Alisha and Devon’s fragile bond might be their only hope for survival… -- Keywords: Canadian Author, adventure romance, rekindled romance, contemporary, small town, search-and-rescue romance, backcountry survival For readers who enjoy: Rachel Grant, Toni Anderson, Laura Griffin, Rebecca Zanetti, Karen Rose.

Book excerpt: LIFELINE: an elite search-and-rescue squad based out of Banff, Alberta. Specializing in high-risk rescue missions, this team goes wherever the job takes them… Rebecca James was once revered for her devil-may-care attitude and backcountry survival skills. But ever since she lost her partner in a fatal accident, patches of her memory have been missing. And until she can recall those final, tragic moments before the accident, she can’t move on. Since Marcus Landers was permanently injured during a mission, all his energies have been focused on his Lifeline team. When Becki—whom he had an intense affair with seven years ago—arrives in Banff, he’s inspired to reignite the spark they once had. Their mutual ardor slowly awakens Becki’s dormant, haunting memories. New truths surface until Becki must at last confront her greatest fear. Remembering the past might mean a future without the man she loves…

Rebecca James’s backcountry survival skills and daring attitude have earned her legendary status in the search-and-rescue community. But since the climbing accident that claimed her partner’s life, her memory of those final moments is fragmented. She’s stuck, unable to move forward until she can piece together the past. Marcus Landers, permanently injured during a mission, has dedicated his life to leading the Lifeline team. PTSD and haunting memories aside, he’s determined to make a difference and save lives. When Becki, the woman he shared a scorching affair with seven years ago, returns to Banff, the chemistry between them reignites. With their passion rekindled, buried memories from their pasts start to surface. As new truths emerge, Becki is forced to face her deepest fear. Remembering the past might mean letting go of the future she dreams of with the man she loves… -- Keywords: Canadian Author, adventure romance, rekindled romance, contemporary, small town, search-and-recue romance, backcountry survival For readers who enjoy: Rachel Grant, Toni Anderson, Laura Griffin, Rebecca Zanetti, Karen Rose.

As the chopper pilot for the elite Lifeline search-and-rescue team, Erin Tate is all about control. In the air, she’s the boss, but in the bedroom? That’s where she wants to let go. She’s looking for a man who can handle her strength and strip away her control. Enter Timothy Dextor, a paramedic with a wild card reputation and the dark appetites to match. The only thing he’s missing is a woman who gets him. Landing a spot on the Lifeline squad puts Erin, his old flame, right back in his sights. He knows exactly what she needs, and this time, he’s not about to let her slip away. When an emergency on an icy glacier snowfield throws Erin and Timothy together in ways they never expected, the stakes skyrocket—both on the job and off. They’ll need to discover the true meaning of control and confront the risks that come with falling deeply in love. ---- Keywords: Canadian Author, adventure romance, rekindled romance, contemporary, small town, search-and-rescue romance, backcountry survival For readers who enjoy: Rachel Grant, Toni Anderson, Laura Griffin, Rebecca Zanetti, Karen Rose.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suicide is a source of endless disquiet. One of the few fatal consequences of psychiatric illness, it is a threat to patients, and a vexation to therapists that puts clinical judgment to the ultimate test. It arouses countertransference reactions of unusual intensity-helplessness and guilt when the suicide is successful; anxiety and anger when it is used as a manipulative tool. For as Samuel Johnson was aware when he com mented that many "commit suicide, as a passionate man will stab an other," it is not only an escape from hopeless despair but an expression of the most violent rage. To all those who care for suicidal patients, this book will come as a welcome guide. Each of the authors represented here brings a wealth of clinical expe rience to bear on the subject under discussion. The psychological and bi ological determinants of depression are simply and clearly delineated to provide a basis for understanding the processes underlying suicide, for judging its likelihood, and for preventing its occurrence. Detailed de scriptions of the variety of psychological and pharmacological treatments of the suicidal patient are complemented by extensive discussions of the several settings in which such patients will be encountered, whether these be an in-patient unit, an out-patient clinic, a medical ward, an emergency room, or a private office.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well known that certain diseases and patient conditions are associated with increased perioperative risk. The aim of this book is to define and identify the clinical factors that warrant a broader and more detailed assessment of pre-operative surgical risk in difficult and unusual clinical settings. One of the sections is dedicated to the main pathway of peri- and post-surgical critical care based on the patient-specific deterioration risk and associated diseases; here, a panel of selected experts describes the correct patient-oriented pathways for complex or unscheduled surgical operations in order to reduce the operative risk. In addition, the book describes the latest trends in minimally invasive surgical techniques that are associated with peri- and post-operative risk reduction, and provides an overview of recent advances in surgical simulation, focusing on perspectives in surgical research to increase patient safety. Guidance is also provided on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs), and their management in patients requiring emergency surgery. The book will help surgical trainees recognize cases with the highest surgical risk and identify the most common complications at an early stage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a general orientation for survival, using the author’s “everyone goes home” approach as in previous editions, to keep the police officer safe and secure. It details the specifics the intelligent police professional must master in order to survive the many types of risky situations he will be exposed to over a career. The book is painstakingly thorough in its approach to officer survival in an era where peacekeepers are required to be highly transparent and accountable in all their actions. Every use of force by a law enforcement officer will be closely scrutinized. This is one reason why it is important that today’s officer has access to every viable tactic and technique that may prevent the need for force in the first place. The book details everything from searching an arrested individual to searching a building; arresting a 300-pound outlaw biker to a surly teenager. Techniques and strategies discussed in the book include personal preparation for risk reduction, vehicle stops and contacts, defusing disturbances, domestic violence, burglaries and structure searching, barricades and hostage-takers, vehicle pursuits, ambush attacks, emotionally disturbed and mentally ill persons, prisoner control and transport, terrorist threats, off-duty confrontations, and reducing the emotional risks involved. At the end of each vital chapter, a quick and concise “Risk Reduction Checklist” is presented. These chapter summaries are excellent for review and merit rereading by the police professional intent on surviving to a healthy retirement. An Appendix has been included containing informative accounts of police deaths, culled from the “Law Enforcement Officers Killed and Assaulted Report” put together by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Other accounts are also found at the end of each chapter. Each one makes a point by way of grim example, yet every tragedy described can help save the life of an alert police officer who might otherwise become one more statistic. This unique and comprehensive text will be invaluable to all law enforcement professionals, investigators, policymakers, and police academics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All accidents and incidents at the workplace, and the resulting consequences, are tied to human beings and their actions. Although their avoidance has been a crucial part of training in aviation for the past twenty years, it has been largely ignored in many other occupations with team structures similar to those in aviation. In such professions and workplaces, those involved are under high stress, with enormous workloads, simultaneously completing mental and motor tasks, facing unexpected situations involving great risk, and with uncertain final outcomes. The goal of researchers is to find ways to minimize human error and to understand the interaction amongst the members of the team fulfilling the task. Specialized training programmes, good management and clear rules that lay out which member is responsible for making decisions can be the first steps to reducing and managing such errors. This book is a major result of the Gottlieb Daimler and Karl Benz Foundation's 6th Berlin Colloquium, ’Interaction in High Risk Environments’, hosted in 2002 by the Psycholinguistic Group of the Humbolt University Institute for German Language and Linguistics. This group is affiliated with the ongoing research group ’Group Interaction in High Risk Environments (GIHRE)’ sponsored by the Foundation based in Ladenburg, Germany. The Colloquium brings together experts from aerospace, clinical medicine, nuclear power, psychology, linguistics and psycholinguistics, to include fields that have yet to be a major focus of scientific investigations. Together, the authors explore scientific advances with direct application to a range of high risk environments. The aim is to address the issues and root causes of error and lack of teamwork by combining the knowledge of scientific experts with experience gained in different fields of industry and public life. Chapters span space travel, risk in the cockpit, safety in medicine, nuclear submarine salvage, large construction sites, police

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legged robots are a promising locomotion system, capable of performing tasks that conventional vehicles cannot. Even more exciting is the fact that this is a rapidly developing field of study for researchers from a variety of disciplines. However, only a few books have been published on the subject of multi-legged robots. The main objective of this book is to describe some of the major control issues concerning walking robots that the authors have faced over the past 10 years. A second objective is to focus especially on very large hydraulically driven hexapod robot locomotion weighing more than 2,000 kg, making this the first specialized book on this topic. The 10 chapters of the book touch on diverse relevant topics such as design aspects, implementation issues, modeling for control, navigation and control, force and impedance control-based walking, fully autonomous walking, walking and working tasks of hexapod robots, and the future of walking robots. The construction machines of the future will very likely resemble hydraulically driven hexapod robots like the ones described in this book – no longer science fiction but now a reality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is moral progress? Are we striving for moral progress when we seek to ‘make the world a better place’? What connects the different ways in which moral agents, their actions, and the world can become morally better? This book proposes an explication of the abstract concept of moral progress and explores its relation to our moral lives. Integrating the perspectives of rival normative theories, it draws a clear distinction between ethical and moral progress and makes the case that moral progress can neither happen merely in theory, nor come about by a fluke. Still, the ideal of moral progress as a deliberate improvement in practices with a positive impact on the world is but one of several types of moral progress, relating in different ways to the theoretical and practical capacities of moral agents. No elevated level of sophistication in these capacities is required for moral progress to be possible, and the abstract idea of moral progress need not be on moral agents’ minds in the pursuit of the morally better. However, a desire for impactful moral progress, far from being a moral fetish, marks a particularly valuable moral outlook.
