Stranded
A must-read collection of stories by Scottish crime writer Val McDermid, “one of the bright lights of the mystery field” (The Washington Post). Val McDermid’s novels have won the Los Angeles Times Book of the Year Award and the Crime Writers’ Association’s Gold Dagger and Cartier Diamond Dagger Award for outstanding achievement. Enjoyed by millions of fans worldwide, her intelligent, incisive crime fiction showcases the best and worst of human nature.

Stranded Encyclopedias, 1700–2000
In Stranded Encyclopedias, 1700–2000: Exploring Unfinished, Unpublished, Unsuccessful Encyclopedic Projects, fourteen scholars turn to the archives to challenge the way the history of modern encyclopedism has long been told. Rather than emphasizing successful publications and famous compilers, they explore encyclopedic enterprises that somehow failed. With a combined attention to script, print, and digital cultures, the volume highlights the many challenges facing those who have pursued complete knowledge in the past three hundred years. By introducing the concepts of stranded and strandedness, it also provides an analytical framework for approaching aspects often overlooked in histories o...
Stranded
Bug Team Alpha is stranded. They find themselves in a hostile, far-flung planetoid, far, far from their home Earth. No one can rescue them. Then they begin seeing ghost-like apparitions. Are these visions here to help them? Or are the memories of the past? Each book includes a character list, mission report, discussion questions, writing prompts, and glossary.
The Stranded
'Gorgeously written . . . immediately hooks the reader from the early pages (the world-building is fantastic).' Independent Welcome to the Arcadia. Once a luxurious cruise ship, now it is home to the stranded. For forty years, they have lived, and died, on the water. A place of extreme haves and have-nots, gangs and make-shift shelters, its people are tyrannized by a country they can see but can't get to. A country that says it doesn't want them. Esther is a loyal citizen, working flat-out for a rare chance to live a life on land. Nik is a rebel, intent on liberating the Arcadia once and for all. Together, they will change the future . . . WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE STRANDED: 'A pacy, gripping read that plunges you into this near-future dystopia from the first page.' 'A real page-turner, with relatable characters and lots of twists and turns . . . if you loved Station Eleven this will be right up your street' 'This is honestly one of the best action centred books I've read in a while! Think Titanic meets The Hunger Games!.'
Pathologic Findings in Stranded Marine Mammals: A Global Perspective
This project is posthumously dedicated to Dr. Gregory Dana Bossart. Whether you knew him as colleague, mentor, friend, family member or simply ‘knew of him’, you could not help but be awestruck by his dedication, intelligence, thoughtfulness, work ethic and passion for scientific inquiry, especially for conservation of the marine environment Many of his publications were seminal in marine mammal health, including infectious, environmental and zoonotic diseases. As we collected manuscripts for this special Frontiers edition, it was heartwarming to hear the comments from contributors. So many research scientists, field biologists and veterinarians could easily have given up and said, ‘I ...
