The Awakening
New graduate John Barrson’s first field mission ends in tragedy, when he sacrifices himself to save the life of a fellow agent in the Earth’s Planetary Atmospheric Protection Society, only to find he’s been “resurrected” in a new body, with his memories downloaded and intact. John meets his saviors, the Curators - an alien race controlling the faraway artificial planet called the Library. The Curators created the Library a billion years ago to record and preserve knowledge from all known species in the galaxy, using recruits called Watchers. Upon awakening, John is given the choice between becoming a Library Watcher or death. John reluctantly begins his training among aliens from various worlds, but when conflict erupts between the Curators and the Departed, a splinter Library faction, he is drawn into the fray as an unwilling pawn. Torn between what he knows is right and what the Curators’ rigid rules of non-interventionism allow, John takes matters into his own hands and brings together a team that, against all odds, tries to find a way to thwart the Departed’s plan for murder on a planetary scale.

Sustainable and resilient development requires an integrated approach and human empowerment.

The Art of Commitment Pacing
Advanced guidance for institutional investors, academics, and researchers on how to manage a portfolio of private capital funds The Art of Commitment Pacing: Engineering Allocations to Private Capital provides a much-needed analysis of the issues that face investors as they incorporate closed ended-funds targeting illiquid private assets (such as private equity, private debt, infrastructure, real estate) into their portfolios.
