The crew’s daring plan might be the only way to save humanity. Meanwhile, a research station in orbit around Venus could hold the key to survival.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alex Harris has always known she was adopted but never really thought about the story behind Colonel Harris and his wife adopting her...until her real mother, Herin, made contact and revealed that Alex's background and talents were just as unusual as her two college roommates, Bree Kirstan and Jori Lawrence. Alex was born in another universe, daughter and heir to the captain of a Leap ship. Her genetics have the special "tweak" that allow her to link her mind with a ship and slide through the fabric of space, going from one universe to another. Herin was injured in the attack that resulted in their ship being stranded in orbit behind the moon, and she can no longer take her ship and crew home. An Air Force investigator who's been harassing the Colonel for years has actually been after Alex all along. Time is running out, and the enemy is getting closer to the truth and closer to capturing the "alien invaders" they've sought for years. What will Alex need to sacrifice, to help her birth-mother and protect her father's career?

Download or read book Intergroup Contact Theory written by Loris Vezzali and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intergroup contact theory has been one of the most influential theories in social psychology since it was first formulated by Gordon Allport in 1954. This volume highlights, via a critical lens, the most notable recent developments in the field, demonstrating its vitality and its capacity for reinvention and integration with a variety of seemingly distinct research areas. In the last two decades, the research focus has been on the variables that explain why contact improves intergroup attitudes and when the contact-prejudice relationship is stronger. Current research highlights that contact is not a panacea for prejudice, but it can represent a useful tool that can contribute to the improvement of intergroup relations. The book includes coverage of a number of previously under-researched fields, which extend the full potential of contact theory within the personality, acculturation and developmental domains. The chapters also examine the methodological advances in the field and the applied implications. The book offers a rich picture of the state of the field and future directions for research that will be invaluable to students and scholars working in social psychology and related disciplines. It aims to provide fertile ground for the development of new, exciting and dynamic research ideas in intergroup relations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Led by Commander Owen McClaren, the TNS Aurora is embarked on an extended survey mission, searching for new worlds that could support human life. Drawn to an uncharted star system by the discovery of potentially habitable planets, the crew of the Aurora discovers something entirely unexpected: the planets are already inhabited, but not by humans. Approached by gigantic alien starships, Aurora's crew makes ready for humanity's very first contact with another sentient race. But nothing could prepare them for what fate has in store. For they have entered the domain of the Kreelan Empire, which has waited thousands of years to find another spacefaring race against which to wage war to honor their Empress. With all but one of the crew killed in bloody close combat, the aliens send Aurora home bearing the sole survivor: the Messenger, a young crewman who carries with him an alien artifact that is humanity's only sign of how much time remains until they are plunged into an interstellar war...
