Combatting Climate Change in the Pacific
This book analyses the regional complexes of climate security in the Pacific. Pacific Island States and Territories (PICTs) have long been cast as the frontline of climate change and placed within the grand architecture of global climate governance. The region provides compelling new insights into the ways climate change is constructed, governed, and shaped by (and in turn shapes), regional and global climate politics. By focusing on climate security as it is constructed in the Pacific and how this concept mobilises resources and shapes the implementation of climate finance, the book provides an up-to-date account of the way regional organizations in the Pacific have contributed to the search for solutions to the problem of climate insecurity. In the context of the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP21) in Paris in 2015, the focus of this book on regional governance offers a concise and innovative account of climate politics in the prevailing global context and one with implications for the study of climate security in other regions, particularly in the developing world.
Boy Bye
Childhood trauma seems to accompany a lot of current adults, to a point of mental imprisonment. Many functioning adults either opt not to or are oblivious of what steps to take to serve eviction of past child abuse, trauma or abandonment. Allow this page turner to not only relate by general happenings and jaw dropping events but by recognizing the appropriate moral and professional steps to take for healing. As men and or women, it can take the familiarity in someone else's story to strike an epiphany or a trigger in our own and hopefully ignite a road to redemption. After my truth is revealed from not only my heart but my past consumed mind into black and white print, may you too be able to tell your gender, BYE!

The Deaths of Henri Regnault
This is the first book in many years about the nineteenth-century French artist Henri Regnault. Controversial and celebrated in his day, Regnault did not live long. He died at the age of 28 in the Franco-Prussian War, becoming a hero of the French nation. What sets him apart from the more conventional members of the French academy is his great skill in painting Oriental exotic subjects and doing so in a highly materialistic vein designed to produce, through elements like gold paint, garish colors, and odd details, blatant amusement for the eye. In a word, his images are both delightful and awful. Gotlieb s book combines biography, history, and comparative readings of works by Regnault with those by other French artists such as Delacroix, Fromentin, and Renoir. It also, importantly, explores the afterlives of Regnault as a cultural and artistic figure, as well as his diminishment during the rise of modernism and his eventual demise in the history of art."
