Talia Hibbert, one of contemporary romance's brightest new stars, delivers a witty, hilarious romantic comedy about a woman who's tired of being "boring" and recruits her mysterious, sexy neighbor to help her experience new things--perfect for fans of Sally Thorne, Jasmine Guillory, and Helen Hoang
Chloe Brown is a chronically ill computer geek with a goal, a plan, and a list. After almost--but not quite--dying, she's come up with seven directives to help her "Get a Life", and she's already completed the first: finally moving out of her glamorous family's mansion. The next items?
Enjoy a drunken night out.
Ride a motorcycle.
Go camping.
Have meaningless but thoroughly enjoyable sex.
Travel the world with nothing but hand luggage.
And... do something bad.
But it's not easy being bad, even when you've written step-by-step guidelines on how to do it correctly. What Chloe needs is a teacher, and she knows just the man for the job.
Redford 'Red' Morgan is a handyman with tattoos, a motorcycle, and more sex appeal than ten-thousand Hollywood heartthrobs. He's also an artist who paints at night and hides his work in the light of day, which Chloe knows because she spies on him occasionally. Just the teeniest, tiniest bit.
But when she enlists Red in her mission to rebel, she learns things about him that no spy session could teach her. Like why he clearly resents Chloe's wealthy background. And why he never shows his art to anyone. And what really lies beneath his rough exterior...

Описание:
This book examines how synthetic biologists make, tinker with, and reason through experimental systems, and shows how these various activities articulate with the demands of academic life. Dan-Cohen's book offers a set of timely interventions into cross-disciplinary discussions of the nature of knowledge, the relationship between knowledge and control, and the role of the university in giving form to modern 'technoscience.' It frames synthetic biology as the latest permutation in a history of mutual incursions between nature and culture, and as an heir to a long tradition of populating biology with new kinds of objects, relationships, practices, and forms of expertise. It follows synthetic biologists as they attempt to make and know new biological things while also stabilizing this novel field and their place within it. Synthetic biology has been the subject of much hype, the substance of which revolves around a future of biological design and fabrication, of end users, standardized parts made from scratch, and lively markets. As Dan-Cohen shows, attending to these aspirations obscures two basic features of synthetic biology in its present-day incarnation, features that ethnography brings bluntly into view.

Описание:
"In The Third Daughter, Talia Carner ably illuminates a little-known piece of history: the sex trafficking of young women from Russia to South America in the late 19th century. Thoroughly researched and vividly rendered, this is an important and unforgettable story of exploitation and empowerment that will leave you both shaken and inspired." --Pam Jenoff, New York Times bestselling author of The Lost Girls of Paris
The turn of the 20th century finds fourteen-year-old Batya in the Russian countryside, fleeing with her family endless pogroms. Desperate, her father leaps at the opportunity to marry Batya to a worldly, wealthy stranger who can guarantee his daughter an easy life and passage to America.
Feeling like a princess in a fairytale, Batya leaves her old life behind as she is whisked away to a new world. But soon she discovers that she's entered a waking nightmare. Her new "husband" does indeed bring her to America: Buenos Aires, a vibrant, growing city in which prostitution is not only legal but deeply embedded in the culture. And now Batya is one of thousands of women tricked and sold into a brothel.
As the years pass, Batya forms deep bonds with her "sisters" in the house as well as some men who are both kind and cruel. Through it all, she holds onto one dream: to bring her family to America, where they will be safe from the anti-Semitism that plagues Russia. Just as Batya is becoming a known tango dancer, she gets an unexpected but dangerous opportunity--to help bring down the criminal network that has enslaved so many young women and has been instrumental in developing Buenos Aires into a major metropolis.
A powerful story of finding courage in the face of danger, and hope in the face of despair, The Third Daughter brings to life a dark period of Jewish history and gives a voice to victims whose truth deserves to finally be told.

Описание: While on a summer history research trip in Charleston, South Carolina, in 1976, William Dick is befriended by Jack Falstaff. Bull-scat Jack, as he is known, gets Bill a room at the Alvermay, a seedy hotel run by Fripp, a black man raised on Fripp Island. Bull-scat Jack tells Bill and Fripp a story about how Benjamin Franklin arranged for Bill's ancestors from Edinburgh Scotland to send a fortune over to Charleston in the 1770s to help the patriots win the Revolutionary War against the British. Jack then pulls a stunt that gets Bill in trouble with the law. Fripp hides Bill at the Blue Dolphin Inn on Fripp Island. Spending days in Beaufort, South Carolina, Bill meets an eclectic group of characters who, together with Fripp and Bull-scat Jack, search out the treasure they believe to be hidden in and around Charleston. The clues that they follow are from stories that Bill's ancestors have passed down. A double cross leads to a double murder in Sumter County that remains unsolved to this day. Bill's granddaughter, Carli Owens, picks up the search for the treasure where her grandfather left off.

Описание: For singers, the term bel canto (beautiful singing) denotes the highest technical and aesthetic achievement in vocal culture. A complex mixture of vocal ideals and style that every school of singing claims to teach, but very few can. In this, the third and final volume in a trilogy on the development of vocal science since 1562, Joseph Talia, noted tenor, teacher, researcher, and operatic director, critically evaluates the modern Italian School of bel canto, its connection to the past, and challenges for the future. Over the last fifty years, advances in voice science and teaching have changed much about the fundamentals of teaching singing. For the Italian School, a fountainhead of such deep knowledge and enduring affection, moving forward into the 21st century requires a resolution for duelling paradigms of empiricism versus physiology. This is not just an Italian phenomenon though, but rather an international one. How do we propagate modern advances in knowledge amongst teachers who are less enthusiastic about the physiological and anatomical aspects of voice science than adhering to historical practices? The objective of this book is to explore the trajectory of the old empirical bel canto school, with its proven techniques, vocalizzi and ornamental fioritura, as it progresses towards a new, modern Italian School dominated by scientific knowledge and methodology and physiological objectivity. Italian Bel Canto in the Age of Vocal Science is a vital resource for voice teachers, vocal researchers, serious vocal students, and vocal connoisseurs. It is also a fitting conclusion to a profound and exhaustive study of singing that began with A History of Vocal Pedagogy Intuition and Science (2017), followed by Vocal Science for Elite Singers (2018).
