Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hugo Xavier, a French playboy hell-bent on possessing Isobel, a gorgeous Greek pauper. Set in Monaco, this is a story about a man who had it all but his past ensures he couldn’t acquire what he yearned the most…and a woman, whose heart wasn’t up for bargaining, no matter the cost. A tug-of war of seduction, of wills, of pride. A whirlwind affair that will change both of their lives forever. This bundle includes three novels: Bartered, Unhinged & Vanquished. BARTERED: A woman could be… Everything. Anything. Nothing. I was a connoisseur of beautiful things, women included. I didn’t just have one, but three—all exotic, stunning and would do anything I asked. My life was grand. It was perfect and I was content with it all, until a little minx came along. The second our eyes clashed, giving me a glimpse of her violet blue depths that had a mixture of stubbornness and will but with a hint of something else… Choices were made. Decisions were done. And for the very first time in my life, I was challenged with something risky, merely igniting the animal in me. UNHINGED: He came into my life in the most unconventional way, turning my world upside down when I least expected it. He was my dark knight amidst the chaos that was my life. His persistence in conquering me tested my resistance, and at one point, I thought I had prevailed. However, the immediate turn of events left me shocked and alone. He left me when I wasn't ready to walk away. For months, I searched for him, stalking the internet for any news of him, hoping that one day I would get to see him again. Nevertheless, he was great at covering his tracks, and I was left resorting to tactics I hadn't considered before. I simply wanted another chance. He had wanted me once. He could want me again, couldn't he? He left a gaping hole in my life, and I knew nothing could ever fix it, except him. I was will-ing to put myself out there for him to relish, criticize, and devour at his will. The heart wants what it wants, and it wanted Hugo Xavier. VANQUISHED: Puzzled by Hugo’s mercurial attitude, the damning bed of flowers and Julien’s warning, Isobel found herself in chilling territory. Stuck between vowing to find the real reason behind it all and fearing for her life, Isobel must summon the courage to fight for the man she loved or lose everything she held precious in her heart.
Download or read book The Encounter Series written by Fred Welch and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2011-08-08 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two of the stories you are about to read have a grain of truth in them. The Encounter, my first story, is based on some of my family members! My brother was in study to become a Roman Catholic priest, actually two times, once as a young man, then many years later as an older man. Both times he approached ordination and left the church. The next two stories are to give the reader a lighter side of the church and its traditions. Especially the story, 1955 or Confession is Good for the Soul. I am the young boy with the clicker. We actually did attend morning mass like I wrote about. Also, the nuns in their black habits were to me, a small boy, a fearsome sight and not to be on the wrong side of. I really did join the Marine Corps, but I was not the military type. I did this more so to honor the family tradition on my mothers side of the family. I hope you enjoy reading these stories, as I have enjoyed writing them.

Download or read book Encounter with Mathematics written by Lars Garding and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trying to make mathematics understandable to the general public is a very difficult task. The writer has to take into account that his reader has very little patience with unfamiliar concepts and intricate logic and this means that large parts of mathematics are out of bounds. When planning this book, I set myself an easier goal. I wrote it for those who already know some mathematics, in particular those who study the subject the first year after high school. Its purpose is to provide a historical, scientific, and cultural frame for the parts of mathematics that meet the beginning student. Nine chapters ranging from number theory to applications are devoted to this program. Each one starts with a historical introduction, continues with a tight but complete account of some basic facts and proceeds to look at the present state of affairs including, if possible, some recent piece of research. Most of them end with one or two passages from historical mathematical papers, translated into English and edited so as to be understandable. Sometimes the reader is referred back to earlier parts of the text, but the various chapters are to a large extent independent of each other. A reader who gets stuck in the middle of a chapter can still read large parts of the others. It should be said, however, that the book is not meant to be read straight through.
Download or read book Philosophy of the Encounter written by Louis Althusser and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1970s and 1980s, Louis Althusser endured a period of intense mental instability during which he murdered his wife and was committed to a psychiatric hospital. Spanning this deeply troubling period, this fourth and final volume of political and philosophical writings reveals Althusser wrestling in a creative and unorthodox fashion with a whole series of theoretical problems to produce some of his very finest work. In his profound exploration of questions of determinism and contingency, Althusser developed a "philosophy of the encounter," which he links to a hidden and subterranean tradition in the history of Western thought which stretches from Epicurus through Spinoza and Machiavelli to Marx, Derrida and Heidegger.

Book excerpt: The Encounter / Susret (2. Edition) - from the series 'Croatian Made Easy' is a reader for learners of the Croatian language. It is a mini novel with English introduction and vocabulary list at the end of the book. Level 5: Perfection Plus (C1) = Advanced High Description: Edit is an elderly Zagreb widow who walks her Dalmatian pedigree dog Briska in the park every day. One afternoon, Haris, a Bosnian, also comes by the park with his mixed-breed dog Walter. Initial quarrelling about the dogs and their behaviour leads to open hostility and scuffling, but soon to discussion, which then turns into calm conversation and finally to a kind of understanding for the problems of the other. It's obvious that the life tragedies of the two protagonists are incredibly similar and that they have more in common than they might think. A humorous and at the same time deeply human story.

Download or read book The Politics of the Encounter written by Andy Merrifield and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Politics of the Encounter is a spirited interrogation of the city as a site of both theoretical inquiry and global social struggle. The city, writes Andy Merrifield, remains "important, virtually and materially, for progressive politics." And yet, he notes, more than forty years have passed since Henri Lefebvre advanced the powerful ideas that still undergird much of our thinking about urbanization and urban society. Merrifield rethinks the city in light of the vast changes to our planet since 1970, when Lefebvre's seminal Urban Revolution was first published. At the same time, he expands on Lefebvre's notion of "the right to the city," which was first conceived in the wake of the 1968 student uprising in Paris. We need to think less of cities as "entities with borders and clear demarcations between what's inside and what's outside" and emphasize instead the effects of "planetary urbanization," a concept of Lefebvre's that Merrifield makes relevant for the ways we now experience the urban. The city—from Tahrir Square to Occupy Wall Street—seems to be the critical zone in which a new social protest is unfolding, yet dissenters' aspirations are transcending the scale of the city physically and philosophically. Consequently, we must shift our perspective from "the right to the city" to "the politics of the encounter," says Merrifield. We must ask how revolutionary crowds form, where they draw their energies from, what kind of spaces they occur in—and what kind of new spaces they produce.
