Book Description
Philian Gregory is a struggling City trader. Nathan Carrington, an alcoholic beggar. When a random act of kindness draws them into an unlikely friendship, they embark on a journey that will change their lives forever. Threatened by forces that seek to conceal an unimaginable past, they escape to the solitude of the English canals, until one death too many turns the pursued into the pursuers. They work off the radar, but even they can’t avoid what is happening around them in a nation where the moral are few, the immoral are in the ascendant, but the power is held by the amoral. As millions of innocents die, they begin to understand that the past is merely a clue to the future and only they can stop what is happening. In doing so, only one of them will survive. This latest work of fiction from canal-based author Simon J. Stephens is an action-packed, contemporary thriller in which unthinkable solutions become more than just a fantasy nightmare: they could just happen. They might even be happening.

Wytham Woods
Author: Peter Savill
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191613800
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
For the first time, this book tells the Wytham story in a way that is accessible to both scientist and general reader alike. It provides a fascinating overview of what the Woods are like, their history, composition (both plant and animal), and how their wildlife has changed over time. This iconic location has been the subject of a series of continuous ecological research programmes dating back to the 1920s, a level of continuity of research effort that is extremely rare. Hence there is a strong emphasis on the significance of the scientific research that has been done there and how this has contributed to ecological thinking elsewhere.

Vagueness, Ambiguity, and All the Rest
Author: Ilaria Fiorentini
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027246564
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
This book aims to address a gap in the existing literature on the relationship between vagueness and ambiguity, as well as on their differences and similarities, both in synchrony and diachrony, and taking into consideration their relation to language use. The book is divided into two parts, which address specific and broader research questions from different perspectives. The former part examines the differences between ambiguity and vagueness from a bird-eye perspective, with a particular focus on their respective functions and roles in language change. It also presents innovative linguistic resources and tools for the study of these phenomena. The second part contains case studies on vagueness and ambiguity in language change and use. It considers different strategies and languages, including English, French, German, Italian, Medieval Latin, and Old Italian. The readership for this volume is broad, encompassing scholars in a range of disciplines, including pragmatics, spoken discourse, conversation analysis, discourse genres (political, commercial, notarial discourse), corpus studies, language change, pragmaticalization, and language typology.
