Book excerpt: Publicly humiliated, Marisa Banks is blindsided by the news that the man she's been dating for months is married. Being called names she wouldn't wish on anyone in front of a room full of people by her boyfriend's wife is enough to shake her identity to its foundations. In an attempt to rebuild, she makes a few questionable decisions. Asher Blaine is one of them. He's intelligent and sexy, but the pedestal he's got himself up on is unshakeable. Or so he thinks. Marisa asks for the one thing he can't deny her, even if it's the craziest thing he's ever done. She wants one night, his best eight hours. And damn if he doesn't deliver. The next morning, her bubble is shattered by his loud mouth, and Marisa retaliates with a stiletto and a remote. The best night of her life is over, and she's more than happy to walk away a free woman. Asher's job sends him to Marisa’s city, and when they cross paths again, it’s Asher's turn to make an offer. And just like him, she can't refuse. Will her worst nightmare and his complicated past ruin what they're building, or can they lean on one another to make it through?

Book excerpt: Oscar Sunder designed a way for humans to live forever. He fueled selfish desires and skirted serious laws. Engineered to prove the existence of God, Oscar must barter his innocence over the life of his family. In a recycled world, people can reach their potential. In Thicket, no one can survive without the Silver Collar Society. People use bio-engineering to face the painful errors of their past, and as memories are illegally traded, everyone capable of second chances will stumble without something to believe. One person can make a difference but the survival of Thicket can become the one decision that saves the lives of millions by someone breaking all the rules. Having salvaged the last stronghold in existence, the people of Thicket have become more than a tale of hope for the future of the human race. The people of Thicket, interwoven in culture, are humanity's promise for a better world, built upon the recycled rubble of a dying planet. In an era of body modifications and second chances, Oscar is among those many would call a specialist. Thanks to the Silver Collar Society, the pathway to immortality will became the tale of the man who tried to live forever.

Book Synopsis To Rise in Darkness by : Aldo A. Lauria-Santiago
Download or read book To Rise in Darkness written by Aldo A. Lauria-Santiago and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2008-07-09 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Rise in Darkness offers a new perspective on a defining moment in modern Central American history. In January 1932 thousands of indigenous and ladino (non-Indian) rural laborers, provoked by electoral fraud and the repression of strikes, rose up and took control of several municipalities in central and western El Salvador. Within days the military and civilian militias retook the towns and executed thousands of people, most of whom were indigenous. This event, known as la Matanza (the massacre), has received relatively little scholarly attention. In To Rise in Darkness, Jeffrey L. Gould and Aldo A. Lauria-Santiago investigate memories of the massacre and its long-term cultural and political consequences. Gould conducted more than two hundred interviews with survivors of la Matanza and their descendants. He and Lauria-Santiago combine individual accounts with documentary sources from archives in El Salvador, Guatemala, Washington, London, and Moscow. They describe the political, economic, and cultural landscape of El Salvador during the 1920s and early 1930s, and offer a detailed narrative of the uprising and massacre. The authors challenge the prevailing idea that the Communist organizers of the uprising and the rural Indians who participated in it were two distinct groups. Gould and Lauria-Santiago demonstrate that many Communist militants were themselves rural Indians, some of whom had been union activists on the coffee plantations for several years prior to the rebellion. Moreover, by meticulously documenting local variations in class relations, ethnic identity, and political commitment, the authors show that those groups considered “Indian” in western El Salvador were far from homogeneous. The united revolutionary movement of January 1932 emerged out of significant cultural difference and conflict.
Book Synopsis Rising Powers and Foreign Policy Revisionism by : Cameron G Thies
Download or read book Rising Powers and Foreign Policy Revisionism written by Cameron G Thies and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Rising Powers and Foreign Policy Revisionism, Cameron Thies and Mark Nieman examine the identity and behavior of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) over time in light of academic and policymaker concerns that rising powers may become more aggressive and conflict-prone. The authors develop a theoretical framework that encapsulates pressures for revisionism through the mechanism of competition and pressures for accommodation and assimilation through the mechanism of socialization. The identity and behavior of the BRICS should be a product of the push and pull of these two forces as mediated by their domestic foreign policy processes. State identity is investigated qualitatively through the use of role theory and the identification of national role conceptions. Both economic and militarized conflict behavior are examined using Bayesian change-point modeling, which identifies structural breaks in time series data, revealing potential wholesale revision of foreign policy. Using this innovative approach to show that the behavior of rising powers is governed not simply by the structural dynamics of power but also by the roles that these rising powers define for themselves, they assert that this process will likely lead to a much more evolutionary approach to foreign policy and will not necessarily generate international conflict.
