Book excerpt: A modern retelling of Hamlet, except with a few twists. It's seventies Vegas. Amid the glitz, neon lights, poker players, and flood of cash, Jack Romano, a well-respected self-made casino owner and patriarch, has died. His only son, Nick, arrives home for the funeral and discovers that the death may not have been so accidental. Now he must decide what to do about Claudio, an ambitious, seasoned mobster who is also his dad's so-called business partner. Complications arise as Nick finds himself falling in love with Rosalie, the daughter of one of Claudio's crew. Nick must not only save his family's casino business, but also his dad's hoard of silver, amassed over decades, and stashed in the casino's basement vaults. "The only thing missing are the cement shoes. Malanaphy's tumultuous and thrilling ride through the wise-guy back rooms of not-so-old Las Vegas is a sometimes funny, sometimes not, but always captivating whodunnit that'll keep you turning the pages. The Prince of Las Vegas has it all: Romance, mystery and a fresh take on a Cosa Nostra-esque underworld where behind every poker table there's a mobster looking to grab the great, late Jack Romano's loot. If you can't read this well-honed mobster thriller without cheering on the good guys and boo-hissing the bad ones, well ... fuhgeddaboudit!" - Andy Scontras, author of When You Are Strange "A well written, nostalgic and fun, Vegas crime thriller. Malanaphy's novel does not disappoint!" - Gary Braver, author of Tunnel Vision "Would make a great Scorsese or Tarantino movie." - Douglas Corleone, author of Good As Gone.

Book Fostering Integrity in Research

    Book Details:
  • Author : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 2018-01-13
  • ISBN : 0309391253
  • Pages : 327 pages

Download or read book Fostering Integrity in Research written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2018-01-13 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The integrity of knowledge that emerges from research is based on individual and collective adherence to core values of objectivity, honesty, openness, fairness, accountability, and stewardship. Integrity in science means that the organizations in which research is conducted encourage those involved to exemplify these values in every step of the research process. Understanding the dynamics that support â€" or distort â€" practices that uphold the integrity of research by all participants ensures that the research enterprise advances knowledge. The 1992 report Responsible Science: Ensuring the Integrity of the Research Process evaluated issues related to scientific responsibility and the conduct of research. It provided a valuable service in describing and analyzing a very complicated set of issues, and has served as a crucial basis for thinking about research integrity for more than two decades. However, as experience has accumulated with various forms of research misconduct, detrimental research practices, and other forms of misconduct, as subsequent empirical research has revealed more about the nature of scientific misconduct, and because technological and social changes have altered the environment in which science is conducted, it is clear that the framework established more than two decades ago needs to be updated. Responsible Science served as a valuable benchmark to set the context for this most recent analysis and to help guide the committee's thought process. Fostering Integrity in Research identifies best practices in research and recommends practical options for discouraging and addressing research misconduct and detrimental research practices.

The targeted audience includes researchers interested in seeing their research and ideas acted upon in the policy world; family professionals who work to connect research and policymaking; and instructors interested in making family policy come alive for undergraduate and graduate students.
