Download or read book Rivers and Sustainable Development written by S. Nazrul Islam and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book presents a new conceptualization of river related policy issues, using concepts such as the Commercial and Cordon approaches to rivers and their opposite, the Ecological and Open approaches. It draws upon river related experience from across the world to substantiate and illustrate these concepts. This new conceptualization will help to connect the river policy related discussion of the experts and specialists with that of river activists and the public. This shared discussion will allow better river policy formulation. The book argues for replacing the currently dominant Commercial and Cordon approaches to rivers by the Ecological and Open approaches rivers. It shows how such a policy change can be more conducive to achieving sustainable development. Rivers are a vital component of the ecology. The earth's hydrological cycle depends on them. As the world population grows and the demand for freshwater increases, rivers are coming under more stress. Many rivers already get completely exhausted before reaching the seas. Climate change is destabilizing the rivers further. River related conflicts are spreading. The necessity for adoption of right river policies is more urgent than ever. Yet the current disconnection between the river related discussions by experts and specialists, on the one hand, and activists and policymakers, on the other, makes correct river policy formulation difficult. By helping to move the river policy discussion from the confines of experts to the public arena this book will allow formulation of more pro-people and pro-environment river policies. "--

An unexpected friendship soon evolved between Kelvin and Audrey – one that helped facilitate his getting another writing job at Audrey’s father’s publishing firm and fast-tracked his promotions up the ladder of management. The couple’s friendship blossomed and they become engaged. However, Audrey’s true nature soon came to light, as Kelvin, to his dismay, realised that she is a controlling, self-centered, and spoilt daddy’s girl – forcing him to have a rethink of the future of their relationship should they get married. Meanwhile, Mr. Johnson, owing to his lack of a male heir and failing health, found a fitting successor in Kelvin. He was willing to make him the CEO of his publishing firm. But there is a heavy catch: Kelvin must divorce Anne and marry his daughter Audrey. On the other side of the spectrum, life had dealt Anne a series of punishing blows, including the deaths of her loved ones. Riven by guilt she realised the enormity of her rash decision in leaving her marriage. Summoning every ounce of courage she could find, she went in search of Kelvin to seek for his forgiveness.

And her father’s irresistible offer of making him the CEO of his publishing firm?
