Rock Mechanics: Achievements and Ambitions
Rock Mechanics: Achievements and Ambitions contains the papers accepted for the 2nd ISRM International Young Scholars’ Symposium on Rock Mechanics, which was sponsored by the ISRM and held on 14–16 October 2011 in Beijing, China, immediately preceding the 12th ISRM Congress on Rock Mechanics. Highlighting the work of young teachers, researchers and practitioners, the present work provides an important stimulus for the next generation of rock engineers, because in the future there will be more emphasis on the use of the Earth’s resources and their sustainability, and more accountability of engineers’ decisions. In this context, it is entirely appropriate that the Symposium venue for t...

By the Grace
Derek has just taken over his father's church, much to the dislike of the older and very traditional congregation. Having witnessed corruption in the church all of his life, he is set on reforming the small congregation. But facing a secret addiction to pornography, Derek realizes he also needs a new start. His quest for redemption is confirmed when his path crosses with Mary, a local adult movie actress who is tired of living in secret chasing a life of stardom that she knows will never happen. She wants to believe that God has a better plan for her life. After suffering sexual abuse from her childhood pastor and alienation from her religious mother, Mary refuses to turn to any church for help. She slowly begins to find her way when she is introduced to the grace of God.
Let Their People Come
In Let Their People Come, Lant Pritchett discusses five "irresistible forces" of global labor migration, and the "immovable ideas" that form a political backlash against it. Increasing wage gaps, different demographic futures, "everything but labor" globalization, and the continued employment growth in low skilled, labor intensive industries all contribute to the forces compelling labor to migrate across national borders. Pritchett analyzes the fifth irresistible force of "ghosts and zombies," or the rapid and massive shifts in desired populations of countries, and says that this aspect has been neglected in the discussion of global labor mobility. Let Their People Come provides six policy recommendations for unskilled immigration policy that seek to reconcile the irresistible force of migration with the immovable ideas in rich countries that keep this force in check. In clear, accessible prose, this volume explores ways to regulate migration flows so that they are a benefit to both the global North and global South.
