Book Description
Will Masters received a phone call late this morning that would change his life forever and for the better, he thought. As a reporter on the Arkansas Tribune, he had been complacent with the mundane, the local stories that led his career nowhere but were everywhere in excess. This particular morning would change this particular aspect of his chosen field of work, he believed. A famous scientist, a recipient of the Nobel Prize, which mysteriously was never collected was on the other end of the line requesting an interview with him. With him! The man had disappeared years before without a trace and as suddenly, reappeared at Will’s desk on his phone. Will’s reaction was immediate. To the man's location he drove, a hundred miles away to a remote cabin where, unbeknownst to Will, an unfolding would take place and would send his life careening off a cliff spiraling downward into a place he didn't know existed, into a world that only existed in legend and myth. The mundane was over in his life and a spiritual awakening awaited him, luring him into a life that would never be the same again.

The Routledge Companion to Gender and Borderlands
Author: Zalfa Feghali
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 104009385X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 427
Book Description
The Routledge Companion to Gender and Borderlands maps the relationship between gender and borderlands at a global scale and sets the agenda for developing a global composite field of gender and borderlands studies. This interdisciplinary collection seeks to understand the complex nexus at which gender and the borderlands intersect, modelling radical relationality at epistemological, ontological, and activist levels. Going beyond border studies’ frequent site at the U.S.–Mexico Border, this book examines the power relations of borderlands as they play out in, influence, and reflect gender dynamics. Contributors draw on case studies from around the world, and their chapters span diverse fields from anthropology, literature, and history, to political science, religious studies, sociology, and the arts. The Routledge Companion to Gender and Borderlands is an indispensable resource for scholars and students engaged in border studies, gender studies, and the wide range of interlocking disciplines that inform and enrich these fields. Chapters 1, 15 and 20.of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY) 4.0 license.

Second Language Speech Processing
Author: Isabelle Darcy
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040104339
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
This book is the first hands-on roadmap for conducting rigorous experimental research on second language speech processing and spoken word recognition. Isabelle Darcy expertly defines key concepts and offers a detailed step-by-step guide to designing empirical psycholinguistic research in this complex, interdisciplinary area. The book covers the following: setting up an efficient workflow to enhance reproducibility of findings; determining a methodology; selecting experimental controls and designing stimuli; collecting data using an array of methodological tools; addressing common challenges; preparing and analyzing data; preregistering the study; and sharing data transparently in accordance with Open Science practices. Darcy provides everything needed to design and carry out robust behavioral studies on L2 speech processing, in a laboratory or online.

Tribological Behavior of Functional Surface
Author: Pawel Pawlus
Publisher: MDPI
ISBN: 3036510362
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Material loss due to wear and corrosion and high resistance to motion generate high costs. Therefore, minimizing friction and wear is a problem of great importance. This book is focused on the tribological behavior of functional surfaces. It contains information regarding the improvement of tribological properties of sliding elements via changes in surface topography. Tribological impacts of surface texturing depending on the creation of dimples on co-acting surfaces are also discussed. The effects of various coatings on the minimization of friction and wear and corrosion resistance are also studied. Friction can be also reduced by introducing a new oil.
