Book Description
Charlie's brother has put her in the no-win situation of having to rescue a cyborg from Earth Government. It's dangerous, she'll become an outlaw on Earth, but it's the only way to save her brother's life. The imprisoned cyborg is rude, conceited and probably the biggest jerk she's ever had the misfortune to meet. His only redeeming qualities are his handsome face and sexy, muscular body. Just wow! Still, she can't wait to be rid of him. All cyborgs hate humans, but Zorus is consumed by it. Chained, enslaved and facing death on Earth once again, he vows revenge. To his utter astonishment, a human female comes to his rescue. She's rude, mouthy and bossy. And very brave. She baffles him almost as much as she arouses him. Zorus cannot deny that he's fascinated by her. They are about to lock wills and ignite a firestorm of desire that defies every rule he lives by.

Book Description
Jill has learned the hard way that men can't be trusted and sex only causes pain. In the lawlessness of space, women are a sexual commodity-to be used and abused. She's doing a man's job, with only her father's brutal reputation and three androids to help keep her alive when she sees a massive, handsome cyborg chained to a freight table. The abusive crew plans to sell him to fight in gruesome death matches. It's stupid, it's insane, but Jill can't leave him to such a horrible fate. Coal has survived being a captive breeding slave and irreversible damage to his cyborg implants, but his honor is still intact. He's grateful Jill saved him and he'll repay her the only way he can. He'll fix her-with his mouth, his hands and his body. He can teach the little human just how much pleasure she's capable of feeling.

Resilient Cyborgs
Author: Nelly Oudshoorn
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811525293
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
This book examines how pacemakers and defibrillators participate in transforming life and death in high-tech societies. In both popular and medical accounts, these internal devices are often portrayed as almost magical technologies. Once implanted in bodies, they do not require any ‘user’ agency. In this unique and timely book, Nelly Oudshoorn argues that any discourse or policy assuming a passive role for people living with these implants silences the fact that keeping cyborg bodies alive involves their active engagement. Pacemakers and defibrillators not only act as potentially life-saving technologies, but simultaneously transform the fragility of bodies by introducing new vulnerabilities. Oudshoorn offers a fascinating examination of what it takes to become a resilient cyborg, and in the process develops a valuable new sociology of creating ‘resilient’ cyborgs.

Machine Dreams
Author: Philip Mirowski
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521775267
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 674
Book Description
This is the first cross-over book into the history of science written by an historian of economics. It shows how 'history of technology' can be integrated with the history of economic ideas. The analysis combines Cold War history with the history of postwar economics in America and later elsewhere, revealing that the Pax Americana had much to do with abstruse and formal doctrines such as linear programming and game theory. It links the literature on 'cyborg' to economics, an element missing in literature to date. The treatment further calls into question the idea that economics has been immune to postmodern currents, arguing that neoclassical economics has participated in the deconstruction of the integral 'self'. Finally, it argues for an alliance of computational and institutional themes, and challenges the widespread impression that there is nothing else besides American neoclassical economic theory left standing after the demise of Marxism.

Book Description
Over-Protective. Ultra-Possessive. Totally in control. Thea: I designed him to make grown men feel small and pathetic. To me... he's a titan. 6'8. 700 pounds of flesh and steel. A killing machine with the strength of twenty men. He's the only man who could stand up to a triad of Rogue Aurelians. I designed him with one purpose. To protect the weak and helpless from the coming storm. He's the first of his kind, a flawed prototype too beastly to live. I spill my secrets to his unknowing ears, knowing he will never come alive. He will never link to his ward. Auger: My eyes have never opened. The only sound is her voice. Thea is brilliant. A genius, but compared to me, she's weak and helpless. She doesn't know the danger she's in. Every time she touches me I latch onto her being. I feel her inside my spine. She belongs to me. I will find her. I will protect her. She will learn that she is mine. Bonded to the Cyborg Beast is a re-work of the novella Auger to match the alien fated mates themes of the Aurelian Empire. It has been expanded 20% and features an overly protective, possessive alien cyborg!
