Poetry 2Life
Poetry 2Life is a compilation of poems written while observing and overcoming different phases of life. The poems were inspired by the pains faced while living and the spirit of determination to overcome them all. The poems were written from the perspective of different eyes: a child, a mother, a teacher, are just a few. This special collection of poetry is one that can be appreciated by all ages and hues. Each section of Poetry 2Life expresses the sentiments of three different phases of life: * Youth: Unlearned Innocence - a time where innocence leads to lessons learned. * Struggle: Pathway To Redemption - the experiences that can not be avoided by life yet give the stamina and wisdom to continue living * Love: Illuminated In The Dark - the beauty and the pain of life's most significant feeling. Poetry 2Life will be a reminder, that regardless of circumstances and locations, there is always a lesson to learn, a facet that can be appreciated after the storm. Allow the poetry in these pages to touch, inspire and motivate.
Mechanobiology of Fracture Healing
This book offers a summary of research on the biomechanics of fracture fixation and mechanobiology of fracture healing. The author, a known expert, provides an overview of the state of art, his own research together with that of his co-workers and collaborators; he describes the ideas and findings from the beginning of this research field in the 1960s up to the clinical consequences and applications of today. The book discusses the mechanobiology of fracture healing, illustrates the numerical methods that simulate fracture healing processes, and depicts specific research methods of experimental studies. Finally, it provides conclusions for the improvement of fracture treatment that will be o...
Materials Design Inspired by Nature
The inner architecture of a material can have an astonishing effect on its overall properties and is vital to understand when designing new materials. Nature is a master at designing hierarchical structures and so researchers are looking at biological examples for inspiration, specifically to understand how nature arranges the inner architectures for a particular function in order to apply these design principles into man-made materials. Materials Design Inspired by Nature is the first book to address the relationship between the inner architecture of natural materials and their physical properties for materials design. The book explores examples from plants, the marine world, arthropods and bacteria, where the inner architecture is exploited to obtain specific mechanical, optical or magnetic properties along with how these design principles are used in man-made products. Details of the experimental methods used to investigate hierarchical structures are also given. Written by leading experts in bio-inspired materials research, this is essential reading for anyone developing new materials.

Kreuzfahrt am Abgrund
Der Journalist Tom Geyer wird nach einem persönlichen Schicksalsschlag zu einer Reportage über eine Kreuzfahrt nach Südostasien geschickt. Was als Urlaubstrip beginnt, entwickelt sich schnell zu einer Katastrophe, denn skrupellose Verbrecher haben mehrere Bomben an Bord versteckt. Die Reederei will das geforderte Lösegeld zahlen. Doch haben die Entführer wirklich vor, die über 2000 Gäste und 600 Mann Besatzung lebend davonkommen zu lassen? Als die übliche Maschinerie anspringt und in Deutschland Polizei und GSG-9 auf den Plan treten, beginnt im Südchinesischen Meer ein Nervenkrieg zwischen Entführern und Verfolgern — und wenn man sich mit moderner Schiffsüberwachungstechnik auskennt, ist es sogar möglich, mit einem ganzen Kreuzfahrtschiff zu verschwinden. Den Einsatzkräften in Deutschland wird schnell klar, dass die Möglichkeit, das gesamte Schiff mit allen 2.600 Menschen an Bord zu verlieren, real im Raum steht.

Mrs Palfrey im Claremont
An einem verregneten Sonntag im Januar trifft die kürzlich verwitwete Mrs Palfrey im Claremont ein, wo sie den Rest ihres Lebens verbringen soll. Ihre Mitbewohner – herrlich exzentrisch und unendlich neugierig – leben von Krümeln der Zuneigung und Schnipseln von Klatsch und Tratsch. Gemeinsam wehren sie, dank der berühmten britisch steifen Oberlippe, ihre größten Feinde ab: die Langeweile und den Tod. Eines Tages schließt Mrs Palfrey unerwartet Freundschaft mit dem mittellosen jungen Schriftsteller Ludo, der sie als Vorbild für seinen Roman verwendet. "Eine großartige Autorin – das fehlende Bindeglied zwischen Jane Austen und John Updike." Daniel Baddiel, The Independent
The Complete Book of 1900s Broadway Musicals
Broadway musicals of the 1900s saw the emergence of George M. Cohan and his quintessentially American musical comedies which featured contemporary American stories, ragtime-flavored songs, and a tongue-in-cheek approach to musical comedy conventions. But when the Austrian import The Merry Widow opened in 1907, waltz-driven operettas became all the rage. In The Complete Book of 1900s Broadway Musicals, Dan Dietz surveys every single book musical that opened during the decade. Each musical has its own entry which features the following: Plot summary Cast members Creative team Song lists Opening and closing dates Number of performances Critical commentary Film adaptations, recordings, and published scripts, when applicable Numerous appendixes include a chronology of book musicals by season; chronology of revues; chronology of revivals of Gilbert and Sullivan operettas; a selected discography; filmography; published scripts; Black musicals; long and short runs; and musicals based on comic strips. The most comprehensive reference work on Broadway musicals of the 1900s, this book is an invaluable and significant resource for all scholars, historians, and fans of Broadway musicals.
