Download or read book The Collection written by and published by John Francis Kinsella. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A mysterious French nobleman arrives at Ekaterina Tuomonova's gallery in Chelsea, London. He is in search of an expert in early 20th century Post Impressionist art. Olivier de la Salle proposes John and Ekaterina visit his château in Provence, in the South of France, where he needs help in identifying a collection of paintings long forgotten in the recesses of his château. The story explores the world of art and art dealers with their immensely rich clients, collectors and oligarchs, crooks and forgers, auction houses and museums, the vast sums of money that art attracts today, artists and their friends, their wealth and their misery, their mistresses and their patrons. It is the Belle Epoque, then comes World War I, the Russian Revolution, followed by World War II and the looting by the Nazis of Museums and Jewish families in 1940, and finally the arrival of Russian oligarchs who spend hundreds of millions of dollars to own the works of Picasso, Modigliani and their fellow artists who lived when Paris was the cultural centre of the world at the beginning of the twentieth century.

Book excerpt: This collection contains books 7-9 of the DreamCatcher MC Unleashing Powerhouse: Cole, who’s known as Powerhouse by his brothers, steers clear of relationships. He had a rough and rowdy childhood, one full of traumatic events. But now he's met her, and she's changed everything. Salem had a wonderful upbringing, full of love and laughter. Until she lost her parents. Despite her world crumbling around her, she never gave up on life or love. She’s a dynamo who’s determined to break down all of Cole’s defenses. Taming Bull: Bull has a hard task ahead of him, winning over his woman and claiming her for himself after having to inform her she has to fake her death and run away with him. Dottie loves her family, her job, and her independence. So when the man she’s been seeing for a few short weeks shows up and tells her if she doesn’t leave with him, her family may pay the consequences, she reluctantly agrees to leave her life behind and fake her own death. Lethal Vendetta: Plans can be thwarted, and people can be astoundingly manipulative and deceptive. It’s a lesson Tyson should never forget. One he’s learned numerous times by those he should’ve been able to trust. The free-spirited person he used to be no longer exists. In its place is a hardcore casing that strangles him and refuses to release its grip. A well thought out future, one that has been calibrated down to the smallest detail, can collapse and tumble around you. No one knows that better than Hemmingway. Her goals and aspirations have been altered, because the motivation to find love was obliterated by two sinister men, and it no longer fuels her desires. Note to Readers: These books end on story arc's to prepare you for the next upcoming book in the series. There are no cliffhangers.

Download or read book The Logical Structure of Kinds written by Eric Funkhouser and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eric Funkhouser uncovers a logical structure that is common to many, if not all, classificatory systems or taxonomies. Every conceptual scheme—including the sciences, mathematics, and ethics—classifies things into kinds. Given their ubiquity across theoretical contexts, we would benefit from understanding the nature of such kinds. Significantly, most conceptual schemes posit kinds that vary in their degree of specificity. Species-genus taxonomies provide us with familiar examples, with the species classification being more specific than the genus classification. This book instead focuses on adjectival kinds—classifications picked out by kind-terms like 'mass', 'shape', or 'belief', to give but a few examples. Some adjectival kinds specify others—for example, scarlet is a specific kind of red. This is an instance of the determinate-determinable relation. One of the fundamental claims of this book is that studying the determination relation provides deep insight into the essences of adjectival kinds and their instances (properties). The determination relation is found to contain two components, which are employed to structure kinds at the same level of abstraction into property spaces. In turn, these property space models lead to a theory for individuating properties, which has profound consequences when it comes to reduction, autonomy, and causation. Determination relations are contrasted with realization relations, the latter being the favored way of understanding how the mental and the physical are related. Particular attention is given to the distinction between multiple realizability and multiple determination, and it is argued that determination and realization are mutually exclusive relations. This has been overlooked in many discussions of multiple realizability, but it is central to maintaining the connection between multiple realizability and autonomy. The claim that multiple realizability entails various senses of autonomy is defended from various reductionist challenges. These theories of determination and realization ultimately provide general standards for establishing the autonomy of the special sciences or, conversely, their reduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The entire Regency romance series by beloved author Sarah Ladd in one volume! “Ladd is at the top of her game and should be an auto-buy for every reader." —RT Book Reviews, 4 ½ stars, TOP PICK! review of The Curiosity Keeper The Curiosity Keeper Camille Iverness can take care of herself. She’s done so since the day her mother abandoned the family and left Camille to run their shabby curiosity shop. But when a violent betrayal leaves her injured with no place to hide, Camille must allow a mysterious stranger to come to her aid. Dawn at Emberwilde For as long as she can remember, beautiful and free-spirited Isabel has strained against the rules and rigidity of the Fellsworth School in the rolling English countryside. No longer a student, Isabel set her sights on a steady role as a teacher at the school. The unexpected arrival of a stranger with news of unknown relatives turns Isabel’s small, predictable world upside down, sweeping her and her younger sister into a labyrinth of intrigue and hidden motives. A Stranger at Fellsworth Annabelle Thorley has it all—beauty, wealth, and wit, but when her guardian brother loses their fortune, he insists that she marry his colleague to help restore his business—a colleague she knows is involved in illegal activities. Annabelle sees only one way out of the dangerous situation: she escapes from her home in London to the safety of her estranged uncle’s home at the Fellsworth School.
