Choi comes a compulsively readable novel that shows young love in all its awkward glory - perfect for fans of Eleanor & Park and To All the Boys I've Loved Before. For Penny Lee high school was a total non-event. Her friends were okay, her grades were fine, and while she somehow managed to land a boyfriend, he doesn't actually know anything about her. When Penny heads to college in Austin, Texas, to learn how to become a writer, it's seventy-nine miles and a million light years away from everything she can't wait to leave behind. Sam's stuck.

He knows that this is the god-awful chapter of his life t...

Serpents lack an external ear, a tympanic membrane, a tympanic cavity, and a Eusta- chain tube. These negative but very significant characteristics are seen phylogenetically, especially in connection with the reduction of the eye (Le., Nopsca, 1923; N.B., today Pachyophis is grouped together with the Simoliophidae, furthermore Mahendra, 1938; Walls, 1940, 1942; Bellairs and Underwood, 1951). Other authors mention these cha- racteristics in connection with characteristics of ingestion (Berman and Regal, 1967). They claim that the formation of a tender tympanic membrane and a tympanic cavity is incompatible with the mobility of the quadratum and its adjacent musculature. The energy of sound can be transmitted either by the bones of the skull or the otic capsule or by the intercalare (medially adjacent to the quadratum) with the stapes and the. base of the columella (for the intercalare or rather the extracolumella see De Beer, 1926 and 1937; McDowell, 1967). The vibrations of the appara...

Edward Bellamy's Looking Backward belongs to the well-known tradition of utopian fiction. That is, fiction that attempts to portray an ideal human society from the author's point of view. In this vision the ideal society is one where the government remains a respected, powerful force of social order. Bellamy's vision was of a modern society free from social ills, competition, and protected and cared for by the state. It was in stark contrast to the excessive Gilded Age of his day. This may have been one of the reasons for the book's tremendous success. This edition includes a specially written Foreword by scholar Solomon James. NOTE: This edition by Azafran Books was published in February 2017 and has been edited and formatted by a team of dedicated real people - not an algorithm!

Als ich im Spätsommer 1989 damit begann, ein Studienbuch über die Sozial- struktur der "Bundesrepublik Deutschland" zu schreiben, ahnte ich nicht, daß bereits ein gutes Jahr später der Gegenstand der geplanten Publikation ver- schwunden sein sollte. Aus der "alten Bundesrepublik" war eine "neue", er- weiterte und differenziertere geworden. Der rapide und radikale Wandel der gesellschaftlichen Realität zwang mich zu einem völligen Umbau meines ur- sprünglichen Konzepts; die Analyse in der vorliegenden Form ist also eine Antwort auf die Umwälzungen in Deutschland seit dem Oktober 1989. In diesem Buch werden wesentliche sozialstruktureile Entwicklungen in der alten Bundesrepublik und in der DDR auf empirischer Grundlage dargestellt und Perspektiven des sozialen Wandels im vereinten Deutsch- land aufgezeigt. Im Zentrum stehen dabei Veränderungen im Gefüge der so- zialen Ungleichheit (Entwicklung der materiellen Lebensbedingungen, Um- schichtungen, Wandel der U...

Drawing on the findings of a series of empirical studies undertaken with boards of directors and CEOs in the United States, this groundbreaking book develops a new paradigm to provide a structured analysis of ethical healthcare governance. Governance Ethics in Healthcare Organizations begins by presenting a clear framework for ethical analysis, designed around basic features of ethics - who we are, how we function, and what we do - before discussing the paradigm in relation to clinical, organizational and professional ethics. It goes on to apply this framework in areas that are pivotal for effective governance in healthcare: oversight structures for trustees and executives, community benefit, community health, patient care, patient safety and conflicted collaborative arrangements. This book is an important read for all those interested in healthcare management, corporate governance and healthcare ethics, including academics, students and practitioners. ...
