She's been given a second chance and is trying to rebuild her life. To former Navy SEAL Tennyson Walker, Mallory seems nothing like the shattered woman he rescued two years ago, and he is inspired by her strength and resilience. When a stalker suddenly makes Mallory vulnerable once again, Tennyson steps up as her bodyguard to keep her safe. Their mutual attraction can't be ignored, but Mallory suspects that Tennyson is keeping a terrible secret about her past. Will their faith sustain them? Good clinical practice (GCP) is a set of broad FDA regulatory requirements, standards, and recommendations that apply to thousands of highly specific tasks, processes, and roles in the conduct of clinical research. Interpreting and implementing GCP standards continue to represent challenges for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device industries. This publication sets out to systematically collect, catalog, and answer the most important, emerging, and difficult questions regarding the interpretation and implementation of GCP standards today. This text's question-and-answer format, address a vast array of these questions, some of which have persisted for many years without definitive answers and some of which have emerged in response to new clinical trials or regulatory related developments.

Focuses on essential preschool and kindergarten skills-the ones that help children learn to read and do math easily. Adopting math as a career relatively late in his studies, Roubaud here narrates his difficulties both personal and pedagogical, while also investigating the role of mathematics in his life as a remedy to all the messiness of lived experience. I sought out arithmetic, he writes, to protect myself. But from what? At the time, I would probably have replied: from vagueness, from a lack of rigor, from literature. But mathematics also provide a refuge from human fears, and from coping, eventually, with tragedies like the death of his wife Alix. This translation originally published, New York: Knopf, 1968.

The intellectual and political elite of the West is nowadays taking for granted that religion, in particular Christianity, is a cultural vestige, a primitive form of knowledge, a consolation for the poor minded, an obstacle to coexistence. In all influential environments, the widespread watchword is "We are all secular" or "We are all post-religious." As a consequence, we are told that states must be independent of religious creed, politics must take a neutral stance regarding religious values, and societies must hold together without any reference to religious bonds.

Jacob Mead was an infant when he was adopted off an Orphan train by Jess and Evangeline Mead in 1890. Jess Mead had been cruel to his son, cruel to his wife and cruel to himself. Now, 17 years later, the old Civil War veteran was dead, it was a new Century, and Jacob was finally free. Free? To do what, to go where? Jacob's mother urged him to go East and look for his brothers and his sister. Could they be found? The clues were scant, the trail was cold but the results of the eventual search stunning. Neil Browning and Randy Alsman also had plans for Jacob. He could go straight to hell just as long as they got his stepfather's money.

The Mini was born in an age of austerity and shortage, intended to widen the base of motoring by making it more affordable for the average family. Ironically it would become something very different, a modern classless car which appealed across the boundaries of social status, age, gender, affluence or affordability. It became a key indicator of its era, lending its name to everything from fashion to furniture. Using unique illustrations from the Archives of the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust, this book tells the story of Mini's conception in the mind of the gifted designer Alec Issigonis, through its shaky infancy, its glorious heyday beloved of film stars and royalty, its glamorous sporting success, and its continued survival in the affections of the public despite many attempts to sideline or replace it over 41 triumphant years.

The immediate human toll of the 1994 Flight 427 disaster was staggering: all 132 people aboard died on a Pennsylvania hillside. The subsequent investigation was a maze of politics, bizarre theories, and shrouded answers. Bill Adair, an award-winning journalist, was granted special access to the five-year inquiry by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) while its investigators tried to determine if the world's most widely used commercial jet, the Boeing 737, was really safe. Their findings have had wide-ranging effects on the airline industry, pilots, and even passangers. Adair takes readers behind the scenes to show who makes decisions about airline safety'and why.

"This book celebrates British Columbia's colourful history with a collection of tales, vignettes and anecdotes about the people who helped make this province what it is today. Beginning with the founding of the colony in 1858, and moving through to the present day, author Gerald Truscott presents a series of loosely linked stories that flow like a conversation among friends." "Did you know that the colony's roots formed in the Fraser River mines? While Governor James Douglas established the colonial government, Judge Matthew Begbie brought justice to the gold fields and swiftly growing settlements in the vast colony. The province has always had its share of criminals, like Bill Miner, the train robber. It's also attracted interesting characters, such as Fred Tibbs, who climbed to the top of a Sitka Spruce one morning to play his cornet, and John Moore Robinson, who founded and named the townsite of Naramata on the advice of his personal spirit guides. And so the stories progress, illuminated by colour photographs and artwork."--BOOK JACKET.

"The Fifth Edition of the Handbook of Research on Teaching is an essential resource for students and scholars dedicated to the study of teaching and learning. The volume covers a vast array of topics ranging from the history of teaching to technological and literacy issues. In each authoritative chapter, the authors summarize the state of the field while providing a conceptual overview of a critical aspect of research on teaching. Each of the volume's 23 chapters is a canonical piece that will serve as a reference tool for the field. The chapters, all broad treatments of areas of study, will help readers see how particular areas of research connect with the larger issues of teaching and teacher education. The Handbook, therefore, provides readers with a "20,000-foot view" of the current state of education research."--Publisher's description. v. A (1770-1783) --v. A, B, and C (1770-1788) -- v.

The original version of this book described the development work from the end of WWII to build the new generation of British jet fighters, in doing so it lifted the lid on many projects and 'dead-ends' which had never been publically discussed. This was the book that launched the hugely successful 'Secret Projects' series and the writing career of renowned historian and author Tony Buttler.This completely revised and redesigned second edition takes the original primary source material and adds to it new material that has come to life in the decades since the original edition was published. Particular emphasis is placed on the tender design competitions and the decisions at the Air Ministry to reject many promising projects, yet allow others to be built and flown. Aircraft types covered include the Hawker P.1103/P.1116/P.1121 series, the extraordinary jet and rocket mixed power-plant interceptors from Saunders-Roe, the equally impressive Fairey 'Delta III' and the origins of today's Hawk and Eurofighter.The book includes appendices that list all the British fighter projects and specifications for this period.There are also a number of specially commissioned color renditions of 'might-have-been' types in contemporary markings, plus photographs and general arrangement 3-view drawings--over 400 illustrations in total. The result is a unique insight into the secret world of British jet fighter projects through the 'golden years' of the British aerospace industry, while also presenting a coherent picture of British fighter development and evolution.
