| best torrent for books: Armada Ernest Cline, 2015-07-14 From the author of Ready Player One, a rollicking alien invasion thriller that embraces and subverts science-fiction conventions as only Ernest Cline could. Zack Lightman has never much cared for reality. He vastly prefers the countless science-fiction movies, books, and videogames he's spent his life consuming. And too often, he catches himself wishing that some fantastic, impossible, world-altering event could arrive to whisk him off on a grand spacefaring adventure. So when he sees the flying saucer, he's sure his years of escapism have finally tipped over into madness. Especially because the alien ship he's staring at is straight out of his favorite videogame, a flight simulator callled Armada--in which gamers just happen to be protecting Earth from alien invaders. As impossible as it seems, what Zack's seeing is all too real. And it's just the first in a blur of revlations that will force him to question everything he thought he knew about Earth's history, its future, even his own life--and to play the hero for real, with humanity's life in the balance. But even through the terror and exhilaration, he can't help thinking: Doesn't something about this scenario feel a little bit like...well...fiction? At once reinventing and paying homage to science-fiction classics as only Ernest Cline can, Armada is a rollicking, surprising thriller, a coming-of-age adventure, and an alien invasion tale like nothing you've ever read before. |

| best torrent for books: Gender, Agency and War Tina Managhan, 2012-01-30 This book traces practices of militarization and resistance that have emerged under the sign of motherhood in US Foreign Policy. Gender, Agency and War examines this discourse against the background of three key moments of American foreign policy formation: the anti-nuclear movement of the 1980s, the Gulf War of the early 1990s, and the recent invasion of Iraq. For each of these moments the author explores the emergence of a historically specific and emblematic maternalized mode of female embodiment (ranging from the ‘hysterical’ antinuclear protester to the figure of ‘Supermom’), in order to shed light onto the various practices which define and enable expressions of American sovereignty. In so doing, the text argues that the emergence of particular raced, gendered, and maternalized bodies ought not to be read as merely tangential to affairs of state, but as instantiations of global politics. This work urges an approach that rereads the body as an ‘event’ – with significant implications for the ways in which international politics and gender are currently understood. This book will be of much interest to students of gender politics, critical security studies, US foreign policy and IR in general. |
| best torrent for books: Stone Mattress Margaret Atwood, 2015-09-24 BY THE AUTHOR OF THE HANDMAID'S TALE, THE TESTAMENTS AND ALIAS GRACE 'Dark and witty tales from the gleefully inventive Margaret Atwood. Witty verve, imaginative inventiveness and verbal sizzle vivify every page' Sunday Times A recently widowed fantasy writer is guided through a stormy winter evening by the voice of her late husband. An elderly lady with Charles Bonnet syndrome comes to terms with the little people she keeps seeing, while a newly formed populist group gathers to burn down her retirement residence. A woman born with a genetic abnormality is mistaken for a vampire, and a crime committed long ago is revenged in the Arctic via a 1.9 billion-year-old stromatolite. 'A collection of nine acerbic, mischievous, gulpable short stories' Harper's Bazaar 'Atwood's prose is so sharp and sly that the effect is bracing rather than bleak' Guardian '[Look at these tales] as eight icily refreshing arsenic Popsicles followed by a baked Alaska laced with anthrax, all served with impeccable style and aplomb. Enjoy!' Ursula K. Le Guin, Financial Times 'Atwood has characters here close to death, dead already, unwittingly doomed or - in one memorable case - freeze-dried; but her own curiosity, enthusiasm and sheer storytelling panache remain alive and kicking' Independent |
| best torrent for books: What Happened to You? Oprah Winfrey, Bruce D. Perry, 2021-04-27 ONE MILLION COPIES SOLD #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Our earliest experiences shape our lives far down the road, and What Happened to You? provides powerful scientific and emotional insights into the behavioral patterns so many of us struggle to understand. “Through this lens we can build a renewed sense of personal self-worth and ultimately recalibrate our responses to circumstances, situations, and relationships. It is, in other words, the key to reshaping our very lives.”—Oprah Winfrey This book is going to change the way you see your life. Have you ever wondered Why did I do that? or Why can't I just control my behavior? Others may judge our reactions and think, What's wrong with that person? When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question. Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?” Here, Winfrey shares stories from her own past, understanding through experience the vulnerability that comes from facing trauma and adversity at a young age. In conversation throughout the book, she and Dr. Perry focus on understanding people, behavior, and ourselves. It’s a subtle but profound shift in our approach to trauma, and it’s one that allows us to understand our pasts in order to clear a path to our future—opening the door to resilience and healing in a proven, powerful way. |

| best torrent for books: Concrete Permeability and Durability Performance Roberto J. Torrent, Rui D. Neves, Kei-ichi Imamoto, 2021-12-22 Durability and service life design of concrete constructions have considerable socio-economic and environmental consequences, in which the permeability of concrete to aggressive intruders plays a vital role. Concrete Permeability and Durability Performance provides deep insight into the permeability of concrete, moving from theory to practice, and presents over 20 real cases, such as Tokyo’s Museum of Western Art, Port of Miami Tunnel and Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao sea-link, including field tests in the Antarctic and Atacama Desert. It stresses the importance of site testing for a realistic durability assessment and details the Torrent Method for non-destructive measurement of air-permeability. It also delivers answers for some vexing questions: Should the coefficient of permeability be expressed in m2 or m/s? How to get a mean pore radius of concrete from gas-permeability tests? Why should permeability preferably be measured on site? How can service life of reinforced concrete structures be predicted by site testing of gas-permeability and cover thickness? Practitioners will find stimulating examples on how to predict the coming service life of new structures and the remaining life of existing structures, based on site testing of air-permeability and cover thickness. Researchers will value theoretical principles, testing methods, as well as how test results reflect the influence of concrete mix composition and processing. |

Two seemingly unconnected cases that will push a detective to the brink. An atmospheric, compelling new voice in Australian crime fiction.

In Northern New South Wales, heavily pregnant and a week away from maternity leave, Detective Sergeant Kate Miles is exhausted and counting down the days. But a violent hold-up at a local fast-food restaurant with unsettling connections to her own past, means that her final days will be anything but straightforward. When a second case is dumped on her lap, the closed case of a man drowned in recent summer floods, what begins as a simple informal review quickly grows into something more complicated.

| best torrent for books: 47 Easy-to-Do Classic Science Experiments Eugene F. Provenzo, Asterie Baker Provenzo, 2012-07-31 Here is a highly motivating book for grade-school students that will introduce them to many of the world's most popular (and historically significant) scientific experiments. They'll learn about gravity simply by following the acrobatic antics of an ordinary coin. By trying to blow an egg out of a cup, they'll discover the principles of air pressure. Dancing soap bubbles will help them understand the effects of static electricity, and by dropping quarters into a full glass of water without causing it to overflow, they'll study the effects of surface tension. These and over 40 other experiments have been carefully selected by noted educators Eugene and Asterie Baker Provenzo to familiarize children with classic science experiments involving optics, inertia, air pressure, magnetism, sound, topology, light, density, vibration, prisms, elasticity, gases, vacuum, perspective, geometry, centrifugal force, buoyancy, color, and much more. Some experiments, such as the optical Newton's Rings are hundreds of years old. Still others, like the straw lever test, are based on Greek experiments with leverage and the center of gravity — first carried out thousands of years ago. Easy-to-follow instructions and illustrations show youngsters how to perform each experiment, most of which are prefaced with historical background, a list of necessary materials and an explanation of key terms. Almost all experiments can be carried out with common household items (tissue paper, scissors, tapes, rubber balloons, pens, pencils, etc.) and can be worked at home or in the classroom to demonstrate specific scientific principles or to supplement a science-curriculum unit. Sources for all historical illustrations given in the text are listed at the end of the book. |

| best torrent for books: How to Translate Your Books WITHOUT SPENDING A DIME Prasenjeet Kumar, 2015-04-16 Enca$h the power of translation WITHOUT SPENDING A DIME Remember Paulo Coelho’s “The Alchemist”? Could it be setting a Guinness World Record if it had not sold more than 65 million copies in 67 different languages? Would you be aware of The Bible, if it were not translated from Hebrew in which it was originally written, to first Greek, then into Latin, and now into more than 450 different languages? History has proven the power of the written word, but translations of those powerful works can be equally significant. So if you could translate your bestseller FROM ENGLISH INTO DIFFERENT WORLD LANGUAGES, it could mean reaching such newer, untapped, unexplored markets whose existence you were blissfully unaware of. This could also be, as experts advise, an excellent way to “repurpose your hard work” and get the most out of the content that you have already written. BUT BEWARE, DOING THIS COULD COST YOU THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. * Now if you can afford it, it may be alright. But the riskiest part of this endeavour is that your book sales in all those exotic languages may never help recover even the cost of translation. That would make this venture a doomed effort ab initio, won’t it? * And if you are a newbie, struggling, unknown author, then this totally unaffordable and expensive route is definitely NOT for you. * There is another problem. You may not be able to reach experienced translators if you are not a “known” author in the English market. * But, in the alternative, if you then contact someone less established, how do you ensure that the translation is of a good quality? Quite a Catch-22 situation, isn’t it? That’s why you need “How to Translate Your Books WITHOUT SPENDING A DIME”. From the Amazon #1 Bestselling author of the “Cooking In A JiffY” and “Quiet Phoenix” series of books, comes this DIY manual of practical tips and advice that can take your writing dreams to literally translation Nirvana. Distilling his practical, hands-on experience in putting out as many as 12 books on all e-Book platforms from Amazon to Apple, Barnes & Noble, Kobo and Babelcube, author Prasenjeet Kumar details as to how you can, by taking advantage of the vast knowledge already available in public domain, including the author’s own website www.publishwithprasen.com, teach yourself everything that you need for putting out the translated versions of your book in the world market, in both paperback and e-Book formats. This book covers many essential issues of translation: * There are tips on how to select a translator * Finding an editor/proof reader for your translated books * Adapting your existing book cover * Formatting, pricing, publishing and marketing your translated books worldwide on 300+ retailers like Amazon, Apple, Barnes and Nobles, Baker and Taylor, Chegg, Follet, Gardner, Google Play, Inkterra, Overdrive, Page Foundry, Scribd, Tolino, 3M, etc. And all, as promised, WITHOUT SPENDING A DIME!

For far too long it has been assumed that we should innately understand how to love one another. Relationships have fallen into the category of things we should know how to do. But we are not born knowing how to make a relationship work, any more than we are born knowing how to file taxes or buy insurance, and there are no classes in high school or college that teach us how to do this. The Practice of Love is that class. In his work, Lair Torrent, a licensed marriage and family therapist, brings together concepts and tools that can actually help couples heal for the long haul. Diving beneath the symptoms most therapies focus on, he helps couples develop a deeper understanding of the wounds that brought them together and how they show up in their relationships. The 5 Practices gives the reader an opportunity to weed out and take responsibility for limiting or negative habits while allowing them to learn and adopt new and healthier practices with their partner. These are not short-term solutions, but rather a path to profound healing, deeper connection, and stronger, happier relationships. |

| best torrent for books: The Outworlds Daniel P. Douglas, 2015-07-03 In The Outworlds: War Torrent, unlikely heroes are on a collision course with destiny amidst a desperate fight against radical evil... Early in the twenty-fourth century, human pioneers on the fringe of Earth's interstellar colonial frontier make a profound discovery: The first evidence of intelligent alien life. But the discovery now haunts humanity's past. Although the explorers judge the ancient alien species of space-faring reptilians, known as Angorgals, to be extinct, they also find evidence the Angorgals had reached Earth many centuries ago and were far more than mere visitors... When a surprise Sekkalan attack in the distant Sceytera System against Mokisia destroys a fragile peace between these two Angorgal subsects, a teenaged soldier-priest in training, Zy K'olt, will struggle with doubt, fear, and acceptance of his mysterious spiritual gifts in a quest to confront the evil Sekkalan threat. At the same time, the invasion shatters Major Krajenar Attazahal's reputation as a successful Mokisiaan intelligence officer, driving her down a desperate path of redemption to the very edge of survival in order to defend her home. Under siege, the Mokisiaans soon learn their alienated brethren have launched both a sinister and technologically superior offensive, one that threatens to inflict more than just military defeat upon them. The Sekkalan war is the start of a new interstellar crusade orchestrated by evil ethereal entities - the Ruuksauro - whose intent is radical genetic purification of the galaxy, and Earth's Stone Age humans are their next target. |
