Born of affluent parents and attending an Ivy League prep school, Max has everything he needs for success, including a presidential name. But Max has a secret that has nothing to do with success. He fantasizes about being an ordinary kid, with ordinary parents who will give him the affection he craves. He wishes he could be someone else’s little kid running around in nappies. Yes, Max wants to wear nappies. When Max meets another boy at the public pool with a similar desire, they strike up an unlikely friendship. Robby is from a working-class home, attends public school, and has little ambition beyond playing video games and making fun of his teenage brother’s love angst. As a former bedwetter, he also has an interest in nappiesfor security reasons; and so, with a common interest, the two boys become friends over the summer. Then Halloween comes and their lives are interrupted by the Zombie Apocalypse. Max’s life takes a dramatic turn as he now fights to survive, aided by Robby’s brother’s teenage girlfriend, Cindy, and Cindy’s three lesbian teenage friends. With additional help from Cindy’s lesbian friend’s grandpa who is a survivalist…well, it gets complicated. It boils down to this: zombies won’t stop until they find what it is they’ve lost. Is it something as simple as a beloved childhood toy, or is it just brains they’re after? Max discovers the truth in a climactic standoff. The question is: is anyone left alive in the world to hear it? From the AB Discovery Zombie Collection!

Floriculture and Ornamental Plants
Author: S. K. Datta
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811535183
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 895
Book Description
The volume on oilseed crops is developed as a part of a series on “Handbook of Agrobiodiversity: Conservation and Use of Plant Genetic Resources”. The handbook would function as a ready reference book for availability of PGR globally, along with specific source, wherefrom they can be procured, and used breeding programs, particularly to overcome various crop production constraints and to improve productivity and quality. The volume on floriculture and ornamental plants will be the source of basic information on origin and evolution and global dispersal of cultivated species of ornamentals. Presently, floriculture has established its credibility in improving income through increased productivity, generating employment and in enhancing exports. All research and developmental activities on ornamental crops are essentially multi-disciplinary in nature recognizing local issues as well as country issue. Floriculture is developing as an area of high technology based frontier interdisciplinary area on scientific excellence. Floriculture has progressed both scientifically and commercially due to concentrated efforts made on multidisciplinary research. It is developing as an area of high technology based frontier interdisciplinary area on scientific excellence. The volume will contain all information about different ornamentals. This shall be put together to develop a complete documentation of the results of the research and demonstrations conducted by different scientists. The volume will provide an illustrated horto-taxonomical account of important ornamental species and cultivars, germplasm status and their usages, propagation, nursery management, techno-economics, conventional breeding, induced mutagenesis, new varieties, cytogenetics, tissue culture, characterization of varieties, dehydration of flowers etc. This volume will give a coherent and concise account on recent developments. It will deal with all the important and relevant aspects of floriculture. The publication of this volume is planned to reveal multifarious activities done on different aspects of floriculture so that innovations made so far can be used judiciously for this sector. This book shall provide authoritative review account of many aspects of current interest and progress in the field of floriculture. The topics included in the book are interdisciplinary and cater not only classical floriculture but also relevant modern aspects. The book will provide valuable data on different aspects and will be widely accepted by by professional scientists, researchers, teachers, students, floriculturists, technocrats and planners. The volume will be an invaluable asset to floriculture scientists.

Migrations and Dispersal of Marine Organisms
Author: M.B. Jones
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401722765
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
This book represents the Proceedings of the 37th European Marine Biology Symposium, held in Reykjavík, Iceland, 5-9 August 2002. The main themes of the symposium were Migrations and Dispersal of Marine Organisms. These themes are highly relevant today. There is widespread man-aided dispersal (e.g. by ballast water) of marine plants and animals, which may have substantial effects on the regions receiving new species. The new introductions may result in reduced diversity of plants and animals and may affect natural resources in the countries receiving toxic algae and other foreign elements. Studies of changes in distribution and dispersal of marine animals and plants are also highly relevant with reference to the changing climate taking place. The study of dispersal has recently gained new impetus with the discovery of the remarkable communities found on isolated hydrothermal vents and cold water seeps in the world's oceans.

Max and the Hidden Visitor
Author: D. P. Bowkett
Publisher: Dippy Bee Publishing
ISBN: 1739558316
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 430
Book Description
If you love science-fiction, like Doctor Who and Star Trek, but also enjoy coming-of-age tales like Heartstopper, this book is for you. Max Janus has made many mistakes since first coming to Earth during the peak of the Roman Empire to chase down alien criminals called Deceptors. Things take an unexpected twist when an accident whilst chasing a female Deceptor in 21st Century London results in him waking up inside the body of a 17-year-old boy. Despite Max transmuting inside a new host every 30 years or so, he has become set in his ways. He has relied on generations of the same family of doctors to be his next host as they reach thirty years of age, so finding himself having to deal with the emotional rollercoaster of a teenager struggling with exams, driving lessons, and his sexuality is sure to cause mayhem. When Bobby Morris sees an old man knocked over in Piccadilly Circus, he couldn’t have imagined how much his life was about to be disrupted. Suddenly finding he will be spending the next six months hosting a centuries-old alien until it can build a new human body shell is bad enough, but finding out that this alien’s past has put the lives of his friends and family at risk leaves him with little choice but to join in the battle. Sci-fi action and adventure trade places as Bobby’s alien body lodger is revealed to his friends, who agree to support him on the quest to uncover who that Deceptor is and why the police seem to be helping the Deceptor. Max and the Hidden Visitor appeals to anyone who loves science-fiction and coming-of-age stories in an action-packed, page-turning adventure for ages 12 to 99. It is book one in the series, but each book can be enjoyed on its own.
