Welcome to Uranus: Now kiss your ass goodbye
Meet Rosie Gordon. A fourteen-year-old with mysterious powers who has been recently uprooted from her home on Earth when her deadbeat dad moved her family to the newly habitable Uranus. However, Uranus does not turn out to be all that the holo-brochure has promised.... Meet Uranus. One of the original gods who was castrated by his son and cast into obscurity. Powerless and teste-less, Uranus, with the help of his three demigod sons, has a plan to regain his strength.... Welcome to Uranus (the planet, not the god), a world that was accidentally created on purpose. It is a planet covered in moss, overrun by wild pug grumbles, and under the thumb of a nefarious mining company that lures desperate people with the promise of riches only to enslave them and their children. It's kind of a bummer.... Join Rosie and her friends in her quest to discover the root of her powers, to overthrow the ruthless mining company, and to get the best slice of pizza on all of Uranus.
The Question of Skill in Cross-Border Labour Mobilities
Selecting migrants based on skill has become a widely practised migration policy in many countries around the world. Since the late 20th century, research on 'skilled' and 'highly skilled' migration has raised important questions about the value and ethics of skill-based labour mobility. More recent research has begun to question the concept of skill and skill categorisation in both government policy and academic research. Taking the view that 'skills' are socially constructed categories and highly malleable concepts in practice, this edited volume centres the discussion on the following questions: Who are the arbitrators of skill? What constitutes skill? And how is skill constructed in the ...

Destination China
This book is a compelling account of China’s response to the increasing numbers of ‘foreigners’ in its midst, revealing a contradictory picture of welcoming civility, security anxiety and policy confusion. Over the last forty years, China’s position within the global migration order has been undergoing a remarkable shift. From being a nation most notable for the numbers of its emigrants, China has increasingly become a destination for immigrants from all points of the globe. What attracts international migrants to China and how are they received once they arrive? This timely volume explores this question in depth. Focusing on such diverse migrant communities as African traders in Guangzhou, Japanese call center workers in Dalian, migrant restaurateurs in Shanghai, marriage migrants on the Vietnamese borderlands, South Korean parents in Beijing, Europeans in Xiamen and Western professionals in Hong Kong, as well as the booming expansion of British and North American English language teachers across the nation, the accounts offered here reveal in intimate detail the motivations, experiences, and aspirations of the diversity of international migrants in China.

The Korean
Africa Yoon née Engo was about to turn 30. She was a celebrated activist working in Manhattan and around the world when she found she had gained 120 pounds and was obese. She realized she needed a life beyond her work and dreamed about having a husband and children. For her dream to come to fruition, she must work on herself to achieve her goal. The activist starts on the road toward the greatest cause of her career—to save herself—and decides she will do a spiritual and physical makeover to find self-love in hopes it may lead to true love. One afternoon at the Asian grocery store H Mart, a Korean grandmother calls her fat! After the initial embarrassment of the public moment, the two begin an unusual friendship that leads her to eating kimchi—and that moment changes everything. This memoir is full of culture, food, inspiration, and travel in this ugly-duckling-turned-swan transformation story, not unlike the self-discovery and romance vein of Sex and the City.
