P Town
Mara, a New York City street musician, has had horrible luck with men, including the death of her college boyfriend. Horton, a young fisherman in Truro, is troubled by an incident in his past. Randy, a retired New York City school teacher, has recently lost his partner of 30-plus years, and is haunted by his one big regret in life. Ernie, a retired plumper from the south side of Boston who has been living a lie his entire life, moves to Wellfleet for the oysters, and finds he has a knack for making birdhouses. Serendipitously, they all end up in the summer at the tip of Cape Cod in beautiful, spirited Provincetown, where a gifted and rather unusual street musician, Reed, brings them together and changes their lives forever.
Business Stress Relief
Soaring Eagles took place during the era from 1853 to 1880. It tells in an upbeat manner how people from meager backgrounds through dedication, determination and hard work climb the ladder of success. These were the Soaring Eagles, since they were able to see further and understand the long term needs of people, rather than having a shortsightedness of immediate wealth in the hit and miss gold fields of California. As the story unfolds many characters, especially the main one are faced with adventure, mystery and adversity while undauntedly persevering to reach their goals. Social, economic, political and prejudicial problems are encountered as the main character lived through a period of so...
The Laws of Attraction
At 88-years old Ben Everett is killed by a loose truck tire that smashes into his windshield and his grieving family soon discovers that he has left his multi-million dollar estate to his new 24-year old wife, Susannah McCreedy. When the marriage and the will are challenged in court, Susannah claims to be the reincarnation of Ben's first wife, Rose. This quickly hits the national wires and the small town of New City is turned into a circus with reporters, demonstrators, believers and non-believers jeering at each other across from the steps of the courthouse, and the trial takes on biblical proportions with testimony from an academic expert on reincarnation. A no nonsense judge, two zealous attorneys, including one who was himself the child of a May-December marriage, an old friend of Rose's, Ben's three sons, a small town jury and an old-time private investigator who scours the country searching for Susannah's past make for a rather unusual and somewhat comical trial to determine whether there is indeed life after death.
Methods of Thermodynamics
Outstanding text focuses on physical technique of thermodynamics, typical problems, and significance and use of thermodynamic potential. Mathematical apparatus, first law of thermodynamics, second law and entropy, more. 1965 edition.
Physics of Waves
Because of the increasing demands and complexity of undergraduate physics courses (atomic, quantum, solid state, nuclear, etc.), it is often impossible to devote separate courses to the classic wave phenomena of optics, acoustics, and electromagnetic radiation. This brief comprehensive text helps alleviate the problem with a unique overview of classical wave theory in one volume. By examining a sequence of concrete and specific examples (emphasizing the physics of wave motion), the authors unify the study of waves, developing abstract and general features common to all wave motion. The fundamental ideas of wave motion are set forth in the first chapter, using the stretched string as a partic...
A Family Institution
Based on an event from the author's life, this is a story about an unusual mid-life crisis triggered by the discovery of an aunt who was mistreated for mental illness in the 1940's and 1950's. Coming to terms with his own family history leads to a journey of self-discovery that tests not only current relationships, but new ones as well. This novel about secrets and revenge is told with a comic touch and will have you reading until the wee hours of the morning.
An Introduction to Mathematical Taxonomy
Students of mathematical biology discover modern methods of taxonomy with this text, which introduces taxonomic characters, the measurement of similarity, and the analysis of principal components. Other topics include multidimensional scaling, cluster analysis, identification and assignment techniques, more. A familiarity with matrix algebra and elementary statistics are the sole prerequisites.
Advanced Strength of Materials
Four decades ago, J.P. Den Hartog, then Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, wrote Strength of Materials, an elementary text that still enjoys great popularity in engineering schools throughout the world. Widely used as a classroom resource, it has also become a favorite reference and refresher on the subject among engineers everywhere. This is the first paperback edition of an equally successful text by this highly respected engineer and author. Advanced Strength of Materials takes this important subject into areas of greater difficulty, masterfully bridging its elementary aspects and its most formidable advanced reaches. The book reflects Den Hartog...
