Book excerpt: In a dark and distant future, death is obsolete. Jonas is a transient: a human spy living as an eternal. His mission is simple: always learn, never get caught. In the year 2578, an immortal regime controls the planet. Endless war has pushed humanity to the brink of extinction. Desperate to survive, the remaining factions deploy teenage spies, hoping to defeat the enemy from within. After years in the lion's den, Jonas has grown to admire the eternal civilization. He is learning to love what he blindly hated, blurring the mission and himself. But a reckoning is coming. The fates of billions hang in the balance. When the axe falls, Jonas must choose between his family and his species. Transient is a Readers' Favorite® 5-Star Selection and a B.R.A.G. Medallion Honoree "An exceptionally well-written, thought-provoking novel that ultimately carries a humanist message, contrasting feigned morality with perceived evil." —Lex Allen, Readers' Favorite "The world-building that author Zachry Wheeler does in Transient is simply amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend it." —Geoff Habiger, Readers' Favorite "An exciting read from the beginning." —Tanja Jurkovic, Readers' Favorite "With its Kafkaesque rendering of humanity's backstory against the vampire-like eternals, the story has intrigue and drama focusing on a young spy's personal dilemma." —Lit Amri, Readers' Favorite "There is much to like, and much to admire, about Zachry Wheeler's ingeniously unique and nimble interpretation of the rather widely exploited vampire genre in his instantly engaging novel, Transient." —Joel R.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller: Two injured, unconscious American women are found in Venice, Italy, leading a police detective down a dark path: “A splendid read.” —BookPage In his many years as a commissario, Guido Brunetti has seen all manner of crime and known intuitively how to navigate the various pathways in his native city, Venice, to discover the person responsible. In this novel in Silver Dagger Award-winning series, he faces a heinous crime committed outside his jurisdiction. He is drawn in innocently enough: two young American women have been badly injured in a boating accident, joyriding in the Laguna with two young Italians. But Brunetti’s curiosity is aroused by the men’s behavior. Why did they run off after bringing the victims to the hospital if the injuries were accidental? As Brunetti and his colleague, Claudia Griffoni, investigate, they discover that one of the young men works for someone rumored to be involved in more sinister nighttime activities in the Laguna. To get to the bottom of what proves to be a gut-wrenching case, Brunetti needs to enlist the help of both the Carabinieri and the Guardia di Costiera. Determining how much trust he and Griffoni can put in these unfamiliar colleagues adds to the difficulty of solving a peculiarly horrible crime—whose perpetrators are technologically brilliant and ruthlessly organized . . . “Highly atmospheric . . . Brunetti continues to delight.” —Library Journal “[An] endlessly enjoyable series.” —The New York Times Book Review

Book Synopsis Transient Literacies in Action by : Stacey Pigg
Download or read book Transient Literacies in Action written by Stacey Pigg and published by Wac Clearinghouse University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2020 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Networked mobile technologies (laptops, phones, tablets) complicate environments where they are used. These devices' capacity for movement and exchange opens the door to new resources, social arrangements, and cognitive challenges for users. This book focuses on the impact of these devices on writing by exploring transient literacies, or writers' everyday practices of spatial analysis and positioning that locate mobile composing and integrate materials across screens and physical spaces. Drawing on qualitative fieldwork, the book traces how 22 writers across an independent coffee shop and campus social commons navigate their social and spatial environments while writing texts that range from academic to personal to professional. The book argues that many mobile composers position places outside their homes and offices as a commons that provides access to materials. Composers in these spaces work in complicated atmospheres of ambient sociability, in which they navigate multiple social channels simultaneously. They also continually produce new models of attention as an outcome of interacting with people and technologies while writing. Based on this conception of writing as phenomenologically experienced in participation with materials, the book concludes by envisioning composing learning as a process of continually adjusting embodied practices based on new encounters with materials"--

Download or read book Transient Pulse written by Laura Juntunen and published by Laura Juntunen. This book was released on 2021-03-28 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the nation is hit by a mysterious shockwave, the resulting power outage interrupts the world as we know it. Everything that was powered on at the time of the transient pulse is destroyed, seizing cities and populations in mass explosions caused by the rippling aftershocks. The lingering darkness severs society in two: those who choose ruinous control, stealing and murdering for provisions, and those who begin to create plans for long-term survival. The latter includes Dixie, a strong, yet hesitant young woman living in the heart of southern California. Dixie is forced to build plans to navigate the country in hopes to find a northern safe zone with Paul, a level-headed survivalist. When Paul goes missing, Dixie must overcome her chronic uncertainty and make the first of many life-or-death decisions: Will Dixie choose to wait for Paul, using up their limited supplies in the delay? Or, will Dixie begin the journey on her own, possibly having to turn to the dark side of society to survive?

Book Synopsis The Homeless Transient in the Great Depression by : Joan M. Crouse
Download or read book The Homeless Transient in the Great Depression written by Joan M. Crouse and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1986-11-21 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Years before the Dust Bowl exodus raised Americas conscience to the plight of its migratory citzenry, an estimated one to two million homeless, unemployed Americans were traversing the country, searching for permanent community. Often mistaken for bums, tramps, hoboes or migratory laborers, these transients were a new breed of educated, highly employable men and women uprooted from their middle- and working-class homes by an unprecedented economic crisis. The Homeless Transient in the Great Depression investigates this population and the problems they faced in an America caught between a poor law past and a social welfare future. The story of the transient is told from the perspective of the federal, state, and local governments, and from the viewpoint of the social worker, the community, and the transient. In narrowing the focus of the study from the national to the state level, Joan Crouse offers a close and sensitive examination of each. The choice of New York as a focal point provides an important balance to previous literature on migrancy by shifting attention from the Southwest to the Northeast and from a preoccupation with rejection on the federal level to the concerted effort of the state to deal with the non-resident poor in a humane yet fiscally responsible manner.

Book Synopsis High-Resolution Spectroscopy of Transient Molecules by : Eizi Hirota
Download or read book High-Resolution Spectroscopy of Transient Molecules written by Eizi Hirota and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a great challenge in chemistry to clarify every detail of reaction processes. In older days chemists mixed starting materials in a flask and took the resul tants out of it after a while, leaving all the intermediate steps uncleared as a sort of black box. One had to be content with only changing temperature and pressure to accelerate or decelerate chemical reactions, and there was almost no hope of initiating new reactions. However, a number of new techniques and new methods have been introduced and have provided us with a clue to the examination of the black box of chemical reaction. Flash photolysis, which was invented in the 1950s, is such an example; this method has been combined with high-resolution electronic spectroscopy with photographic recording of the spectra to provide a large amount of precise and detailed data on transient molecules which occur as intermediates during the course of chemical reac tions. In 1960 a fundamentally new light source was devised, i. e. , the laser. When the present author and coworkers started high-resolution spectroscopic stud ies of transient molecules at a new research institute, the Institute for Molecu lar Science in Okazaki in 1975, the time was right to exploit this new light source and its microwave precursor in order to shed light on the black box.
