Book excerpt: "A heartfelt and exciting debut...a wise and honest story of how it feels to be a young woman in search of yourself."—Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and Malibu Rising The Bookish Life of Nina Hill meets Younger in a heartfelt debut following a young woman who discovers she'll have to ditch the "dream job" and write her own story to find her happy ending. Meet Nora Hughes—the overworked, underpaid, last bookish assistant standing. At least for now. When Nora landed an editorial assistant position at Parsons Press, it was her first step towards The Dream Job. Because, honestly, is there anything dreamier than making books for a living? But after five years of lunch orders, finicky authors, and per my last emails, Nora has come to one grand conclusion: Dream Jobs do not exist. With her life spiraling and the Parsons staff sinking, Nora gets hit with even worse news. Parsons is cutting her already unlivable salary. Unable to afford her rent and without even the novels she once loved as a comfort, Nora decides to moonlight for a rival publisher to make ends meet...and maybe poach some Parsons' authors along the way. But when Andrew Santos, a bestselling Parsons author no one can afford to lose is thrown into the mix, Nora has to decide where her loyalties lie. Her new Dream Job, ever-optimistic Andrew, or...herself and her future. Your next book club read touching on mental health, happiness, and the peaks and perils of being a young woman just trying to figure it all out. Nora Hughes is the perfect heroine for anyone looking to get past their own chapter twenty-something and build their storybook life. "A tender reflection on finding your person while you're still desperately searching for yourself."—KJ Dell'Antonia, New York Times bestselling author of The Chicken Sisters "A book for book lovers... It's impossible not to root for Nora!"—Jesse Q. Sutanto, National Bestselling author of Dial A for Aunties

Hayley Burke, curator of Lady Fowling's collection of first edition mysteries, is settling into her position at the First Edition Library in Middlebank House. She's even made progress with Lady Fowling's former secretary, the ornery Miss Woolgar. The women are busily preparing for an exhibition that will showcase Lady Fowling's life and letters. Hayley knows the exhibition is a huge undertaking and decides, against her better judgement, to hire Oona Atherton, her former boss from the Jane Austen Centre to help with the planning. Oona is known for being difficult, but all seems to be going swimmingly until she and Hayley uncover a one-page letter that alludes to a priceless edition of MURDER MUST ADVERTISE signed by several Golden Age of Mystery authors. Oona feels this book could be the focal point of the exhibition and becomes obsessed with finding it. When they find clues that appear to point to the book being somewhere in the First Edition Library, Oona is certain she's unraveled the mystery and texts Hayley the good news, but upon arriving back at Middlebank, Hayley finds her old boss dead at the bottom of the stairs. Did her discovery of the rare book get her killed or was it some angry shadow from her past? Hayley must read between the lines to catch a malicious murderer.

Download or read book Toxicity 77 Must Know Predictions of Organic Compounds written by Mohammad Hossein Keshavarz and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-10-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the advances of various methods for the prediction of toxicity of organic compounds and ionic liquids (ILs), it is necessary to review these methods for scientists and students. It is essential to compare the advantages and shortcomings of these methods. Since many organic compounds and ILs are synthesized each year, this book introduces suitable models for the assessment of their toxicities. This book reviews the best predictive methods for the prediction of toxicity of organic compounds and ILs, which were derived by in vitro or in vivo experiments. Different available quantitative structure‐toxicity relationship (QSTR) models based on various descriptors have been discussed to predict toxicity parameters such as LD50 (50% lethal dose), EC50 (the concentration of the desired IL that produces mortality of 50 percent of the bacterial population) and log(IGC50-1) (logarithm of 50% growth inhibitory concentration of T. pyriformis) of various classes of organic compounds and ILs. The reliability of these methods is compared and discussed. Each chapter contains some complimentary problems with their answers, which can improve the experience of students and researchers. The introduced subjects are suitable for advanced students in chemistry, biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, and chemical engineering.

Download or read book The Center Must Not Hold written by George Yancy and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2011 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Center Must Not Hold: White Women Philosophers on the Whiteness of Philosophy functions as a textual site where white women philosophers engage boldly in critical acts of exploring ways of naming and disrupting whiteness in terms of how it has defined the conceptual field of philosophy. Within this text, white women philosophers critique the field of philosophy for its complicity with whiteness as a structure of power, as normative, and as hegemonic. In this way, the authority of whiteness to define what is philosophically worthy is seen as reinforcing forms of philosophical narcissism and hegemony. Challenging the whiteness of philosophy in terms of its hubristic tendencies, white women philosophers within this text assert their alliance with people of color who have been both marginalized within the field of philosophy and have had their philosophical and intellectual concerns and traditions dismissed as particularistic. Aware that feminist praxis does not necessarily lead to anti-racist praxis, the white women philosophers within this text refuse to telescope as a site of critical inquiry one site of hegemony (sexism) over another (racism). As such, the white women philosophers within this text are conscious of the ways in which they are implicated in perpetuating whiteness as a site of power within the domain of philosophy. Framed within a philosophical space that values the multiplicity of philosophical voices, and driven by a feminist framework that valorizes de-centering locations of hegemony, interdisciplinary dialogue, and transformative praxis, The Center Must Not Hold refuses to allow the white center of philosophy to masquerade as universal and given. The text de-centers various epistemic and value orders that are predicated upon maintaining the center of philosophy as white. The white women philosophers who contribute to this text explore ethics, epistemology, aesthetics, taste, the nature of a dilemma, questions of the secularity of philosophy, perception, discipline-based values around how to listen and argue, the crucial role that social location plays in the continued ignorance about the reality of oppression and privilege as these relate to the subtle forms of white valorization and maintenance, and more. Those interested in critical race theory and critical whiteness studies will appreciate how the contributors have linked these areas of critical inquiry within the often abstract domain of philosophy.
Download or read book To Walk in Forgiveness You Must Walk in Forgiveness written by Marvin L. Ward and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009-10-14 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have spent many a year, and shed many a tear over bitterness in my life time, including experiencing the condemnation it brings. I grew up feeling very rejected in life. As a result, I developed a very low self-esteem of life. My biggest argument was always, 'But I know how I feel', when someone would try to offer me counsel. Our personal feelings are very real, but very false! I had to learn the truth of God's word of who I really am. Please read this book and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you to your freedom in Christ from the emotions you fight with every day. The second part deals with bitterness we could not avoid and that we need to deal with this bitterness with forgiveness as well.

Reduces cigarette cravings. 434 Summary. 434 PREFACE Understanding Self-Worth One of the most important things a young lady must know is her inherent self-worth. Society often imposes unrealistic standards of beauty, success, and behavior on women, but it's crucial to recognize that self-worth does not come from external validation. A young woman must learn to appreciate her uniqueness, talents, and inner qualities rather than comparing herself to others. Confidence in who she is, and not what others expect her to be, is essential for navigating life’s challenges. Emotional Intelligence and Mental Health Emotional intelligence—understanding and managing emotions—is key to a young woman’s personal and professional life. Recognizing her feelings, handling stress, and empathizing with others will improve relationships and decision-making. Equally important is knowing when to seek help for mental health issues like anxiety or depression. A young lady must understand that prioritizing her mental health is not a sign of weakness, but an act of self-care that leads to long-term well-being. The Importance of Financial Independence Achieving financial independence is a vital skill for any young woman. Understanding basic financial literacy—how to budget, save, invest, and manage credit—is crucial to her empowerment and autonomy. Financial independence ensures that she can make decisions for her life based on her desires, goals, and values, rather than relying on others for financial support. A young lady should know how to build her financial security, as it gives her the freedom to pursue her dreams without limitations. Healthy Relationships Building healthy relationships, whether they are friendships, romantic partnerships, or family connections, is crucial for a young woman’s emotional well-being. A young lady must learn to set boundaries, communicate effectively, and recognize the signs of a healthy versus toxic relationship. Respect, trust, and equality should be the foundation of all her relationships. Knowing when to walk away from toxic or abusive situations is a sign of strength, and no one should tolerate disrespect or mistreatment. The Value of Education and Lifelong Learning Education is a powerful tool that opens doors to personal and professional opportunities. A young lady should know the importance of continuous learning, not only in formal education but also through personal development. Whether it's pursuing higher education, developing new skills, or staying curious about the world, lifelong learning equips her to adapt to changing circumstances and seize opportunities. Education builds confidence, independence, and opens up pathways to success.
