On parole, Allison is trying to survive her freedom, yet she comes to the aid of a silent immigrant boy looking for his activist mother who left him to fight the myopia of a small town.Now she's missing in the wetlands.All ALLISON wants is to restart her music career. But she violates her parole by hacking into the activist's website only to realize that she can never reveal the shocking unpublished blog she discovers. Then she sees a body in the fishkill. Her parole officer can never know these things-nor can the boy. Or anyone.Desperate, Allison urges her troubled ex-boyfriend to help the boy. Because both he and the boy might have lost their parents to warlords, Allison believes they can help each other heal-provided the boy never reads the blog. Though Allison's freedom is at stake she uncovers a nefarious plot to poison the bay, and is the prime suspect of an avaricious detective who badly wants the activist, and her, out of his way.

Sustainable Business

'This is an immensely useful and important book. By applying sustainability theory and practice to all areas of business management for firms of all sizes it has the potential to make a significant difference to the long term viability of businesses and the societies in which they operate.' – Juliet Roper, The University of Waikato, New Zealand Recent surveys of international CEOs confirm that companies increasingly see sustainability as critical to their business strategy. The rigorous academic framework for the field of sustainable business required to respond to this need is now emerging. This book presents important new work in the theory of the sustainable firm, in the application of sustainability principles to key management disciplines, in sustainable business in practice, and in the international challenges that are critical to sustainability demands. Sustainable Business will prove invigorating for both undergraduate and graduate students on business, society and sustainability themed courses. Policymakers and practitioners will find the urgent global sustainability issues and sub-disciplines essential.

Plagiarama!

William Wells Brown (1814–1884) was a vocal abolitionist, a frequent antagonist of Frederick Douglass, and the author of Clotel, the first known novel by an African American. He was also an extensive plagiarist, copying at least 87,000 words from close to 300 texts. In this critical study of Brown's work and legacy, Geoffrey Sanborn offers a novel reading of the writer's plagiarism, arguing the act was a means of capitalizing on the energies of mass-cultural entertainments popularized by showmen such as P. T. Barnum. By creating the textual equivalent of a variety show, Brown animated antislavery discourse and evoked the prospect of a pleasurably integrated world. Brown's key dramatic prot...

The Correspondence of H.G. Wells: Volumes 1–4

This collection of H.G. Wells's correspondence draws on over 50 archives and libraries worldwide, including the papers of Wells's daughter by Amber Reeves. The book contains over 2,000 letters, and while a few are business – to publishers, agents and secretaries – the majority are much more personal. Wells's private correspondence extends from letters to President Franklin Roosevelt and Prime Ministers Winston Churchill and A.J. Balfour, to persons such as ‘Mark Benney’, who wrote novels based on his life in the slums and his time in prison. There is correspondence too with his many female friends and lovers, among them Rebecca West, Eileen Power, Gertrude Stein, Marie Stopes, Lilah ...

The Cosmopolitan Empire

This book is about conspiracies in high places. Conspiracies it covers include the assassination of JFK, the attacks of 9/11, the Covid-19 Lockdown & Vaccine Mandates, and Malaysia Airlines MH370. Other conspiracy books allege that there is just one high-level conspiracy, but this one maintains that there are four-British (Anglo-American Imperial), Globalist, Zionist and Green-Left. They are forced to share power, so they operate as factions. The Globalists are attempting to implement the World State advocated by H. G. Wells. Aldous Huxley's book Brave New World and George Orwell's book Nineteen Eighty-Four are both warnings about what Wells' World State would be like. Huxley depicted dumbing-down with sex, drugs and entertainment; Orwell depicted Speech Codes and Thought Police. Both have turned out to be correct.

  • Publisher: Springer

This book concisely describes ways in which today's standard British English speech differs from the upper-class accent of the last century, Received Pronunciation, which many now find old-fashioned or even comic. In doing so it provides a much-needed update to the existing RP-based descriptions by which the sound system of British English is still known to many around the world. The book opens with an account of the rise and fall of RP, before turning to a systematic analysis of the phonetic developments between RP and contemporary Standard Southern British (SSB) in vowels, consonants, stress, connected speech and intonation. Topics covered include the anti-clockwise vowel shift, the use of...
