The stunning conclusion to the forbidden romance, The Luna Duet, by New York Times Bestseller, Pepper Winters... I made the worst mistake of my life when I was twenty-two. I let love and fear destroy everything I ever wanted, and now I have a choice to make. Run and hide or stay and face the consequences. I’d always known I wasn’t allowed to love her. I’d always accepted that I wasn’t allowed to keep her. But that didn’t stop me. I broke every rule and choked on every secret to have her. The only problem is, those secrets aren’t just hunting me anymore, they’ve found me. I can’t run. I can’t hide. For a moment, I had it all. I had all my dreams and the girl I would kill for. But now, I have to pay the price. I have to pay… And I won’t survive. A story that spans a lifetime.

Sufism in Western Contexts explores both historical trajectories and multiple contemporary manifestations of Islamic mystical movements, ideas, and practices in diverse European, North and South American countries, as well as in Australia – all traditionally non-Muslim regions of the “global West”. From early French and British colonial administrators who admired Persian poetry to nineteenth-century American transcendentalists, followed by South Asian and Middle Eastern immigrant Sufi guides and their movements, expansive and many-faceted expressions of Sufism such as its role in Western esotericism, female whirling dervishes and Rumi cafes, and new articulations in cyberspace, are traced and analyzed by international experts in the field.

Robotics is an exciting field in engineering and natural sciences. Robotics has already made a significant contribution to many industries with the widespread use of industrial robots for tasks such as assembly, welding, painting, and handling materials. In parallel, we have witnessed the emergence of special robots which can undertake assistive jobs, such as search and rescue, de-mining, surveillance, exploration, and security functions. Indeed, the interest in mobile machines, such as climbing and walking robots, has broadened the scope of investigation in robotics. This volume covers broad topics related to mobile machines in general, and climbing and walking robots in particular. Papers from the following keynote speakers are included: Heinz Worn (University of Karlsruhe, Germany), Atsuo Takanishi (University of Waseda, Japan), John Billingsley (University of Southern Queensland, Australia), Bryan Bridge (London South Bank University, UK) and Neville Hogan (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA).
