Murder by Proxy
Dermatologist Dr. Richard Carnes ran a successful clinic, but for various reasons several Former patients felt justified in being angry enough at him to want him dead. Someone stabbed him to death, in the heart, one early Saturday evening. Was it a former patient? Or was it someone elsehis wife? His lawyer? Or was it merely because of a robbery that got out of hand? What had been the killers motive? Vengeance seemed to be a possible motive, but the widow may have had another reason, and attorney Justin Douglas stood to gain the largest financial benefit from the doctors death. The Orange Grove, Florida police team of Beth Reed and Bob Garcia put their heads together to find the killer and establish the motive, simultaneously finding clues about each other that could put their careers in jeopardy.
"... Call Me Eldon, Please."
A man before his time, Eldon MacCauley, after being wounded in a Civil War battle in which all his comrades are killed, is nursed back to health by a farmers adopted daughter. Although she confesses her love for him, he must flee the killing. On his way west, not only does he rescue a young, starving black boy from a tyrant master, but leads a wagon train of freed slaves to Texas to start a new life. Going against all conventions of the day, the young Scottish immigrant sees racial hatred as a terrible sin, and being a man of not only huge proportions, but also large ideas, through trials and tribulations he carves out a place for himself and his charges. Over many years, he never forgets the woman in West Virginia who saved his life and fell in love with him. One day, he must somehow repay her.
The Confederate General Rides North
In this richly imagined, utterly original debut, a mother-daughter road trip leads a young girl, a precocious Civil War buff, to a hard-won understanding of the American history she loves and the personal history she inherits. Eleven-year-old Katherine McConnell is so immersed in Civil War history that she often imagines herself a general, leading troops to battle. When Kat’s beautiful, impulsive mother wakes her early one morning in the summer of 1968 to tell her they will be taking a road trip from Georgia to Maine to find antiques for a shop she wants to open, Kat sees the opportunity for adventure and a respite from her parents’ troubled marriage. Armed with a road atlas and her most...
Direct Your Own Damn Movie!
Film is a visual medium, the work of Eric Rohmer and Kevin Smith notwithstanding. It is important for a director and cinemtographer to use their VISUAL EYES in order to VISUALIZE how to make their movie most effective. Also, there is the messy business of actors. Generally, movies have them, and directors have to deal with them. This guide will illuminate these two main jobs of the director: directing the camera and directing the actor, while showing how these two jobs manifest themselves during practical filmmaking -- whether it be, 'Which shots can I lose and still tell my story since we're running out of time', or 'How do I get two actors who hate each other to perform a passionate sex scene',' all will be revealed.
Down to Earth
Down to Earth is a story about a group in the spirit world, motivated to help mankind live good and purposeful lives, who develop the technology to show people what spirit world is like with live interactive views. We follow this group from the first break-through to full stadiums streaming to a live television audience seeing heaven for the first time. The Earth is introduced to the awe-inspiring higher realms and also the dark, ugly and hideous lower realms. The outreach from heaven and the response creates a dramatic and heart inspiring story.

Interdisciplinary Research on Climate and Energy Decision Making
This book explores the role and importance of interdisciplinary research in addressing key issues in climate and energy decision making. For over 30 years, an interdisciplinary team of faculty and students anchored at Carnegie Mellon University, joined by investigators and students from a number of other collaborating institutions across North America, Europe, and Australia, have worked together to better understand the global changes that are being caused by both human activities and natural causes. This book tells the story of their successful interdisciplinary work. With each chapter written in the first person, the authors have three key objectives: (1) to document and provide an accessi...
Immeasurable Outcomes
"The author tells her story of teaching Shakespeare to college students in a world that cares less and less about humanistic ways of thinking. She moves alternately between her classroom experience and the cultural forces pushing in on education in the United States"--
Build Beyond Zero
In Build Beyond Zero, carbon pioneers Bruce King and Chris Magwood re-envision buildings as one of our most practical and affordable climate solutions instead of a leading driver of climate change. They make a case for a "carbon smart" built environment that absorbs more greenhouse gases than it emits. While the industry pursues net zero emissions focused on improving the energy efficiency of buildings, a carbon-smart approach also considers what we make all those buildings with, and the supply chains that deliver all those products and materials. Build Beyond Zero offers an exciting vision of climate-friendly architecture, along with practical advice for professionals working to address the carbon footprint of our built environment.
Carbon Capture
This book approaches the energy science sub-field carbon capture with an interdisciplinary discussion based upon fundamental chemical concepts ranging from thermodynamics, combustion, kinetics, mass transfer, material properties, and the relationship between the chemistry and process of carbon capture technologies. Energy science itself is a broad field that spans many disciplines -- policy, mathematics, physical chemistry, chemical engineering, geology, materials science and mineralogy -- and the author has selected the material, as well as end-of-chapter problems and policy discussions, that provide the necessary tools to interested students.
