Book Description
BY MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER JASPER T. SCOTT CHAOS IS COMING... Cade Korbin finally has more credits than he knows how to spend. He also has the alien entity known as "Alpha" and the power of the swarm on his side. Finally, things are going his way. Deciding to leverage his good fortune, Cade starts his own guild dedicated to hunting the galaxy's crime lords and the corrupt authorities that shelter them. Meanwhile, tensions are simmering along the border between the Alliance and the Coalition. A ceasefire was declared, but both sides are bitterly licking their wounds. Cade's plans are interrupted when he learns of a dangerous operation, code-named The Omega Protocol. Alpha has already warned him about "Omega," an entity from the future whose only goal is to cause chaos and destruction. In order to stop The Omega Protocol, Cade must cut a deal with the very enemies he sought to eradicate. Together, they must act quickly before Omega can be unleashed and usher in a dark age the likes of which the galaxy hasn't seen since the Priors mysteriously disappeared.

Book Description
The association between poor nutrition and disease is well established. Integrating nutritional sciences into clinical practice offers a valuable tool to improve patient care and prognosis, particularly within the critical care environment where nutrition is often overlooked. However, optimizing nutritional support offers a safe and simple adjunct to more expensive and technologically challenging treatments for these complex patients. This volume provides comprehensive guidelines for the nutritional support of critically ill patients and is valuable reading for doctors, nurses, dieticians and practitioners working within the critical care environment. It begins by discussing nutritional physiology and patient assessment, providing an essential foundation for planning and managing the dietary requirements of critically ill patients. Internationally-recognized authors present evidence-based guidelines for managing various groups, including surgical patients, patients with burns, and patients with renal failure. The implications of enteral vs. parenteral nutrition, timing of nutritional support, therapeutic strategies, and management of complications are discussed.

Fans of Brandon Mull and James Riley will love this middle grade fantasy trilogy about a regular kid who discovers that the truth about his past could be the answer to saving the future. All Jack Blank knows is his bleak, dreary life at St. Barnaby’s Home for the Hopeless, Abandoned, Forgotten, and Lost, an orphanage that sinks more and more into the swampland of New Jersey with each passing year. His aptitude tests project him as spending a long, unhappy career as a toilet brush cleaner. His only chance at escape comes through the comic books donated years ago to the orphanage that he secretly reads in the dark corners of the library. Everything changes one icy gray morning when Jack receives two visitors that alter his life forever. The first is a deadly robot straight out of one of his comic books that tries its best to blow him up. The second is an emissary from a secret country called the Imagine Nation, an astonishing place where all the fantastic and unbelievable things in our world originate—including Jack. Jack soon discovers that he has an amazing ability—one that could make him the savior of the Imagine Nation and the world beyond, or the biggest threat they’ve ever faced.
