Shadows of the Past
A stalker in Madrid exposes deep secrets and tears a family apart. Daniela Lopez’s dance school business is just starting to find its feet when sensational newspaper reports about her father send clients running for the hills. Teetering on financial ruin, she finds that her only hope lies in Rafael Martin—the very journalist and love interest whose articles about her father drove away her students. Searching for answers draws Daniela into a deadly cat-and-mouse game. She must solve clues cryptic enough for a crossword puzzle. Together, Daniela and Rafael uncover a shocking secret in Spain’s ruggedly beautiful Basque Country. The question is: can they beat the stalker’s dead-line to save Daniela’s family? If you like intense romance, rich characters, fast-paced action and suspense, you’ll love Lucy Appadoo’s second book, Shadows Of The Past in the Women Of Strength Series.
Die Frau, die nicht wollte, dass ein Leopard sie verspeist
Was haben ein Arzt in Paris, dem ein Baby vom Himmel in den Arm fällt, ein brasilianischer Motorradfahrer mit einem Messer im Kopf, ein katholischer Pfarrer im Schwarzwald auf Verbrecherjagd und eine Inderin, die eine Dreiviertelstunde lang mit einem Leoparden kämpft, gemeinsam? Es handelt sich um Menschen, die in Situationen geraten sind, in denen sie Mut bewiesen haben. Ralf Hoppe hat jahrelang auf den ersten Blick ungeheuerliche, aber wahre Geschichten gesammelt, minutiös recherchiert und in literarischer Form aufgeschrieben. Herausgekommen ist ein Kaleidoskop der Wirklichkeit mit Menschen aus allen Erdteilen und aus allen Schichten, die einmal im Leben über sich hinausgewachsen sind und Außergewöhnliches geleistet haben.
A Reluctant Warrior
A gripping novel that gives readers a rare glimpse into Colombia's notorious drug wars, told by someone who knows the landscape intimately. When Luzma's brother Jair unwittingly uncovers the plan by Colombia's most notorious drug cartel to smuggle an unprecedented cocaine shipment into the US, it puts their family in grave danger. Jair's kidnapping by the cartel forces Luzma to go face to face with vicious paramilitary leader, El Cubano, and General Ordonez, ruthless head of the military - men who will stop at nothing to protect their empires. But for Luzma, nothing is more important than saving her family - not even her own life. Kelly Brooke Nicholls worked in human rights in Colombia for a number of years. Although the story and characters in A Reluctant Warrior are fictitious, they are based on events she witnessed first hand and her interviews with thousands of victims of paramilitaries, guerrillas and drug cartels. She wrote this book to celebrate and support the brave people in Colombia who risk their lives to protect and make a difference to others.

Multi-Agent Oriented Programming
The main concepts and techniques of multi-agent oriented programming, which supports the multi-agent systems paradigm at the programming level. A multi-agent system is an organized ensemble of autonomous, intelligent, goal-oriented entities called agents, communicating with each other and interacting within an environment. This book introduces the main concepts and techniques of multi-agent oriented programming, (MAOP) which supports the multi-agent systems paradigm at the programming level. MAOP provides a structured approach based on three integrated dimensions, which the book examines in detail: the agent dimension, used to design the individual (interacting) entities; the environment dimension, which allows the development of shared resources and connections to the real world; and the organization dimension, which structures the interactions among the autonomous agents and the shared environment.

The Cop and the Sociologist
Drawing on the sociology of Max Weber, Barbara Thériault investigates today's relations toward difference within German police forces. Accompanying and interviewing police officers whose job it is to contribute to the acknowledgement of difference, the sociologist outlines three ideal types of actors - an empathetic, a principled, and an opportunist one - and the motives underlying their actions. A fourth type, the specialist, is conspicuously absent. Why is that so? Solving this enigma helps depicting the relations to difference within police forces: it points to a specific »spirit« of diversity and a singular way to apprehend the individual in Germany.

Stative Inquiries
This monograph studies stative predicates from a neo-constructionist perspective and integrates them in a comprehensive theory of event and argument structure. It focuses on two sets of stative verbs: govern-type verbs and object experiencer psychological verbs. For govern-verbs, it shows how notions such as causativity and resultativity can also be ingredients of stative predicates and be derived syntactically. The consequences of this proposal are further pursued in a crosslinguistic investigation of adjectival passives, which are stative predicates of sorts. For object-experiencer psychological verbs, it is shown that their Experiencer theta-role can and should be derived as an aspectual entailment mediated by prepositional structure. In defending this view, this monograph reveals a syntactic parallelism between location verbs and object-experiencer psychological verbs in many languages that has hitherto gone unnoticed. This book will primarily appeal to researchers interested in lexical aspect and its connection to morphosyntax.
