Mercury's Wings
This is the fourth book in the Minerva's Shield series. The action picks up right where Apollo's Plague left off. The bunker suffers the loss of 10 of their members to the alien attack and worse than that, Bob Norton, their leader, is presumed dead as well. However, the community recovers quickly after Debra Vitale is elected their new president. Life inside the bunker improves dramatically and it seems that the Georgia survivors will do quite well. Unfortunately, outside of the bunker's new private mini-grid, the rest of area known as the Zone is suffering from an incredibly violent drought. Many forces come into play, all vying for control of the planet. Yet in far off Texas, it appears that Bob Norton did survive after all, but the grueling torture he is forced to endure changes him forever, both mentally and physically.

The story of the Churches of Iraq, their interaction with each other and their varied fortunes under successive Parthian, Sassanid, Arab, Mongol and Ottoman rule, is told here...

The Large Hadron Collider
This comprehensive volume summarizes and structures the multitude of results obtained at the LHC in its first running period and draws the grand picture of today’s physics at a hadron collider. Topics covered are Standard Model measurements, Higgs and top-quark physics, flavour physics, heavy-ion physics, and searches for supersymmetry and other extensions of the Standard Model. Emphasis is placed on overview and presentation of the lessons learned. Chapters on detectors and the LHC machine and a thorough outlook into the future complement the book. The individual chapters are written by teams of expert authors working at the forefront of LHC research.
