Book excerpt: A story of Monte, a tiny squirrel monkey, and his friend Jack are captured by men involved in the illegal selling of endangered species on the black market. The pair escape their captors at the destination on Catalina Island. Evading re-capture, they travel from Avalon to the backside of the island, stumbling into the center of a Ceremonial Indian Gathering. Jack is re-taken prisoner by Joaquin, an evil medicine man who is the Keeper of the Badlands. Receiving a Warriors' blessing from the chief of the tribe, Montes' mission is to rescue Jack. Through the process of gaining the knowledge necessary to achieve this, Monte meets many others; those in the waters around and on Catalina Island, the children who were lost at sea that now inhabit Fantasy World, and some individuals living in San Pedro, California. The story progresses through Montes' escapades, including his face-off with Joaquin in the waters between Catalina and the Mainland. As a young boy, born and raised in San Pedro, California, the Port of Los Angeles, I was fascinated by the landmass of Catalina Island. A mere 26 miles from home, yet it wasn't until I was 26 that I finally arrived. Today I still live near water, but far from my beloved ocean. The ocean and Santa Catalina Island has always drawn me. After my visit, and several additional trips, my curiosity was more than satisfied. It gives me great pleasure to present the one-on one journey into the Montes' Tale.

She’s lonely, she’s tired, and she’s broke. She’s about to throw the towel in and crawl back home when she gets a job offer working for a stylist. Andie’s new job is keeping her head above water, but the hot bar owner downstairs may just pull her back under. Cameron Forbes is successful, handsome, and single…and that’s how he likes it. Recently broken up from a long-term relationship and living in a new city, Cam decides to solely focus on his business, a successful string of bars called The Social Hour. His business is his baby, his mistress, and his responsibility. What he didn’t have perfectly planned out is the crazy woman who pops into his bar unexpectedly one afternoon. Cameron has to decide if he can let his heart overrule his head or if he’s destined to a life running The Social Hour. Sometimes Life doesn’t go the way you planned it. The Social Hour is the third book in the Coffee Book series. It’s a standalone novel, but the author strongly suggests reading the first two books in the series because of returning characters. "I love Sophie’s books, they never fail to make me smile and I always enjoy every moment I spend reading them. She quickly became one of my favorite authors and I’m already excited to see what she has next in store for us. The Social Hour was a heartwarming, emotional, and sweet read that had me laughing like crazy and enjoying every minute I spent reading it. I cannot recommend it, and this series, enough!" - MLOVESTOREAD

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Voice Perception written by Sascha Frühholz and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 977 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speech perception has been the focus of innumerable studies over the past decades. While our abilities to recognize individuals by their voice state plays a central role in our everyday social interactions, limited scientific attention has been devoted to the perceptual and cerebral mechanisms underlying nonverbal information processing in voices. The Oxford Handbook of Voice Perception takes a comprehensive look at this emerging field and presents a selection of current research in voice perception. The forty chapters summarise the most exciting research from across several disciplines covering acoustical, clinical, evolutionary, cognitive, and computational perspectives. In particular, this handbook offers an invaluable window into the development and evolution of the 'vocal brain', and considers in detail the voice processing abilities of non-human animals or human infants. By providing a full and unique perspective on the recent developments in this burgeoning area of study, this text is an important and interdisciplinary resource for students, researchers, and scientific journalists interested in voice perception.
