Book excerpt: In an infinity of starlight, through anguish and betrayal, can love still shine? Raphael Lewis of the Mars Colony wanted nothing more than to fly his ship, Agatha, and to remain with his family. Lord Teo of the Chi’NoSa had other ideas. On a routine trip to the asteroid belt, Raphael and Agatha are injured by a Chi’NoSa ship. After healing, he is held prisoner by the Chi’NoSa Lord Teo. Unsure what is wanted from him, and unfamiliar with Chi’NoSa protocol, Raphael only wishes to return home. Lord Teo’s curiosity about the Mars colonist he inadvertently injured is a new emotion for him. So are the inappropriate lust and confusion. When his temper gets the best of him, he finds he needs Raphael’s forgiveness so he may learn why this man evokes such feelings in him. Through misunderstanding and politics, Raphael and Teo must learn how to bring together two such disparate species, all while navigating their own love story. Will the Chi’NoSa ever accept Raphael as Teo’s? Or will their love be destroyed in a supernova? PLEASE NOTE: On page whipping, noncon/dubcon, aliens with questionable ethics, and man-on-alien love. If these are triggers for you, please choose another wonderful book!

Book Death Work

    Book Details:
  • Author : Vincent E. Henry
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2004-04-01
  • ISBN : 9780198035848
  • Pages : 422 pages

Download or read book Death Work written by Vincent E. Henry and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-04-01 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fascinating new book, Vincent Henry (a 21-year veteran of the NYPD who recently retired to become a university professor) explores the psychological transformations and adaptations that result from police officers' encounters with death. Police can encounter death frequently in the course of their duties, and these encounters may range from casual contacts with the deaths of others to the most profound and personally consequential confrontations with their own mortality. Using the 'survivor psychology' model as its theoretical base, this insightful and provocative research ventures into a previously unexplored area of police psychology to illuminate and explore the new modes of adaptation, thought, and feeling that result from various types of death encounters in police work. The psychology of survival asserts that the psychological world of the survivor--one who has come in close physical or psychic contact with death but nevertheless managed to live--is characterized by five themes: psychic numbing, death guilt, the death imprint, suspicion of counterfeit nurturance, and the struggle to make meaning. These themes become manifest in the survivor's behavior, permeating his or her lifestyle and worldview. Drawing on extensive interviews with police officers in five nominal categories--rookie officers, patrol sergeants, crime scene technicians, homicide detectives, and officers who survived a mortal combat situation in which an assailant or another officer died--Henry identifies the impact such death encounters have upon the individual, the police organization, and the occupational culture of policing. He has produced a comprehensive and highly textured interpretation of police psychology and police behavior, bolstered by the unique insights that come from his personal experience as an officer, his intimate familiarity with the subtleties and nuances of the police culture's value and belief systems, and his meticulous research and rigorous method. Death Work provides a unique prism through which to view the individual, organizational, and social dynamics of contemporary urban policing. With a foreword by Robert Jay Lifton and a chapter devoted to the local police response to the World Trade Center attacks, Death Work will be of interest to psychologists and criminal justice experts, as well as police officers eager to gain insight into their unique relationship to death.

Book Rescue from Beyond the Roaring Forties

Download or read book Rescue from Beyond the Roaring Forties written by Raphael Dinelli and published by Adlard Coles Nautical Press. This book was released on 1998-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vendee Globe Challenge is the ultimate ocean race: a singlehanded circumnavigation, without port of call & without outside assistance. Raphael Dinelli, youngest & least experienced of the sixteen yachtsmen & women to set sail in November 1996 for what was to prove the most dramatic race in its history, was without doubt the luckiest of them all. Here, for the first time, he tells the story of his horrendous capsize & dismasting in the Southern Ocean-the fear, the utter exhaustion, the numbing cold of the Antarctic waters-of his amazing rescue against all odds by fellow skipper Pete Goss (later to receive the Legion d'Honneur from the President of France for his exploit), & of the firm friendship this extraordinary rescue was to cement. This is also the story of a burning mission: to challenge the sea head-on. Dinelli describes the struggle to turn mission into reality, from his earliest years at the leading edge of the then new sport of windsurfing to his departure as an outsider in the Vendee Globe fleet. This is a story of human endeavour, endurance and, ultimately, survival which draws the reader inexorably along through its physical & emotional highs & lows.

Book The Chinese in America

Download or read book The Chinese in America written by Iris Chang and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-03-30 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A quintessiantially American story chronicling Chinese American achievement in the face of institutionalized racism by the New York Times bestselling author of The Rape of Nanking In an epic story that spans 150 years and continues to the present day, Iris Chang tells of a people’s search for a better life—the determination of the Chinese to forge an identity and a destiny in a strange land and, often against great obstacles, to find success. She chronicles the many accomplishments in America of Chinese immigrants and their descendents: building the infrastructure of their adopted country, fighting racist and exclusionary laws and anti-Asian violence, contributing to major scientific and technological advances, expanding the literary canon, and influencing the way we think about racial and ethnic groups. Interweaving political, social, economic, and cultural history, as well as the stories of individuals, Chang offers a bracing view not only of what it means to be Chinese American, but also of what it is to be American.

Book International Student Mobility to and from the Middle East

Download or read book International Student Mobility to and from the Middle East written by Aneta Hayes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-03-03 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume investigates how international students in and from the Middle East are constructed by nations, institutions, other students, and themselves. Making a valuable contribution to understanding the nuances and complexities of educational politics and priorities affecting these constructions, the text considers the broader impacts of discourse on internationalisation. Offering a unique combination of critical analysis of educational policies combined with empirical contributions through authors’ own research, chapters highlight intersections between politics, the internationalisation of higher education, and the construction of mobile learners. Emphasising variation and nuance in the internationalisation of policies in the Gulf Cooperation Countries, and other Middle Eastern countries, the volume offers a theoretical framework to help understand the political, educational, and ethical implications of emerging constructions of international students and their comparison across the Middle East. This timely volume will benefit researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in higher education, international and comparative education, as well as the Middle East more specifically. Those involved with educational education policy and politics, specifically related to the Middle East, will also benefit from this volume.
