Louie and the Dictator
Louie's world is getting smaller with each passing day. An authoritarian mastermind has set out to control his every move. To make matters worse, there is an unknown virus infecting the world, forcing everyone to lock down in their home. Playdates, soccer games and even his birthday party are cancelled! Outside the confines of his room lies a world of darkness: the calamitous cracks, the rock of evil, the steps of doom. Even the food and air are poisoned. As the Dictator continues his onslaught, Louie worries he will be imprisoned forever in the solitude of his home, with only his Tales of King Arthur and his anxious rescue pup, Baily, for company. Louie's dreams of living an ordinary day are shattered when his beloved Baily is lost in the forest. With the Dictator and his dark forces closing in, will he muster the courage to face his fears, lead a rescue, and bring his furry friend home?

Stability and Growth in Europe
The fiscal policy framework of the EMU is in a states of crisis. Since the start of EMU, fiscal conditions in some member states have slipped considerably beyond the limits set by the Maastricht Treaty and the Stability and Growth Pact. It is clear that the preventive arm of the Stability and Growth Pact has failed to preclude excessive deficits. There is no shortage of proposals to reform the current fiscal framework in this crisis situation. They range from calls for softening their implementation, and to proposals for closer coordination of national fiscal policies. None of these proposals offers a convincing solution to the problem at the heart of the current crisis: how to balance the n...
Nationalism and Internationalism in the Post-Cold War Era
The tension between nationalism and internationalism has been a major feature of world politics since the end of the Cold War. Based on a Nobel symposium, this collection brings together an international selection of acclaimed authors from a wide variety of academic disciplines. The book combines focused case-studies and more theoretically based material to examine critically the post-Cold War political landscape. Subjects covered include: * changing interpretation of the nation state and nationalism * the growing prominence of transnational organisations * technological changes in information, communication and transport * multiculturalism and citizenship *ethnicity and religious identity in African, Indian, Bosnian and Polish nationalism * the growing global significance of Islam.
Value Of Nothing
As retirement funds shrink, savings disappear and houses are foreclosed on, now is a good time to ask a question for which every human civilization has had an answer: why do things cost what they do? The Value of Nothing tracks down the reasons through history, philosophy, neuroscience and sociology, showing why prices are always at odds with the true value of the things that matter most to us. Damien Hirst’s diamond-encrusted skull sold for a record $100 million at auction. But if we account for the possibility that blood diamonds were used (as many suspect), the human cost is even greater. A Big Mac might seem like the best deal in these economic times, but after analyzing the energy to produce each burger, from field to Happy Meal, Patel argues the real price tag is a whopping $200. But it is easiest to see the gap between price and value by looking at things that are so-called free. Examining everything from Google to TV, from love to thoughts, The Value of Nothing reveals the hidden social consequences of our global culture of “freedom.”
Class A ERP Implementation

This book will resolve these myths by thoroughly describing the definition of Class A ERP and giving specifics for achieving Class A performance in a reasonable timeframe.

How can I help my child deal with a bully? What do I teach them about handling an on-again-off-again, not-so-friendly friend? My advice to "just be kind" isn't helping, and my child is still hurting.
