| bluenexus pool cleaner: The Amulet of Samarkand Jonathan Stroud, 2003 The djinni Bartimaeus is summoned by a young apprentice, Nathaniel, and directed to steal the Amulet of Samarkand from the powerful magician, Simon Lovelace. Lovelace has publicly insulted and humiliated the boy on a former occasion. Bartimaeus succeeds in swiping the Amulet from Lovelace and Nathaniel directs him to hide it in his master`s study - that of the magician, Arthur Underwood. There is mounting antagonism between Nathaniel and Bartimaeus, the boy threatening the djinn with Perpetual Confinement at the bottom of the Thames unless he continues to serve him faithfully. Bartimaeus has no choice but to obey and discovers that Lovelace committed murder in order to steal the Amulet in the first place and that he is at the centre of several government plots. Bartimaeus is caught and taken to the Tower of London where he is interrogated by the Prime Minister and other members of the Government. He manages to escape but Lovelace tracks down the Amulet to Underwood`s house, siezes it and sets the house on fire. Nathaniel`s master is burned to death. A glitzy country house ball takes place attended by Nathaniel and Bartimaeus. Lovelace appears wearing the Amulet which gives him total protection from all dangers. All the great and the good of the government arrive but Lovelace has a plot - he summons a powerful demonic deity to destroy all his rivals. Chaos ensues but the apprentice and the djinn save the day. Nat wrenches the Amulet off Lovelace`s neck and in reversing the summons, drives back the demonic djinn which takes Lovelace with it as it disappears. Nat`s career is off to a good start! _______________________________________________________Sales Points --One of the most exciting projects Random House Children`s Books has ever launched.

| bluenexus pool cleaner: The Politics of Bioeconomy and Sustainability Mairon G. Bastos Lima, 2021-04-15 This book addresses the underexposed political dimensions of bioeconomy promotion. Who wins and who loses? How are institutions being shaped, and by whom? Drawing from experiences since the earlier days of biofuels promotion, it explores in unprecedented detail the global drive away from fossil fuels and towards a biomass-based economy. Multipurpose agriculture gains ever more traction as countries create new bio-based value chains – or, rather, value webs. Governance, in this regard, proves to be key for steering developments towards inclusive agri-food-biomass systems instead of fueling just a handful of “flex crops” ridden with social equity and other environmental issues. Based on a rich global-level analysis of bioeconomy promotion and three in-depth case studies of key emerging economies (Brazil, India and Indonesia), the book also innovatively examines sustainability politics in Global South democracies. Ultimately, this book is about finding the politics for a fairer bioeconomy in the years and decades to come. |
| bluenexus pool cleaner: Land Use Intensification Saul Cunningham, Andrew Young, David Lindenmayer, 2012-07-18 There can be little doubt that there are truly colossal challenges associated with providing food, fibre and energy for an expanding world population without further accelerating already rapid rates of biodiversity loss and undermining the ecosystem processes on which we all depend. These challenges are further complicated by rapid changes in climate and its additional direct impacts on agriculture, biodiversity and ecological processes. There are many different viewpoints about the best way to deal with the myriad issues associated with land use intensification and this book canvasses a number of these from different parts of the tropical and temperate world. Chapters focus on whether science can suggest new and improved approaches to reducing the conflict between productive land use and biodiversity conservation. Who should read this book? Policy makers in regional, state and federal governments, as well as scientists and the interested lay public. |
| bluenexus pool cleaner: Supercharge Your Brain James Goodwin, 2021-04-01 'Some people improve mentally with age - here's how you can be one of them.' Mail on Sunday 'More than a game-changer, this book's a no-brainer for anyone who wants to optimise their brain.' Piers Morgan With a new chapter on Covid and the Brain, this is the definitive guide to keeping your brain healthy for a long and lucid life, by one of the world's leading scientists in the field of brain health and ageing. The brain is our most vital and complex organ. It controls and coordinates our actions, thoughts and interactions with the world around us. It is the source of personality, of our sense of self, and it shapes every aspect of our human experience. Yet most of us know precious little about how our brains actually work, or what we can do to optimise their performance. Whilst cognitive decline is the biggest long-term health worry for many of us, practical knowledge of how to look after our brain is thin on the ground. In this ground-breaking new book, leading expert Professor James Goodwin explains how simple strategies concerning exercise, diet, social life and sleep can transform your brain health paradigm, and shows how you can keep your brain youthful and stay sharp across your life. Combining the latest scientific research with insightful storytelling and practical advice, Supercharge Your Brain reveals everything you need to know about how your brain functions, and what you can do to keep it in peak condition. |

| bluenexus pool cleaner: Social Science and Sustainability Iain Walker, Heinz Schandl, 2017-06-01 Sustainability policies shape the ways that society and the economy interact with the environment, natural resources and ecosystems, and address issues such as water, energy and food security, and climate change. These policies are complex and are, at times, obscured by contestation, uncertainty and sometimes ignorance. Ultimately, sustainability problems are social problems and they need to be addressed through social and policy change. Social Science and Sustainability draws on the wide-ranging experience of CSIRO’s social scientists in the sustainability policy domain. These researchers have extensive experience in addressing complex issues of society–nature relationships, usually in interdisciplinary collaboration with natural scientists. This book describes some of the evidence-based concepts, frameworks and methodologies they have developed, which may guide a transition to sustainability. Contributions range from exploring ways to enhance livelihoods and alleviate poverty, to examining Australians’ responses to climate change, to discussing sociological perspectives on sustainability and how to make policy relevant. Researchers, policy-makers and decision-makers around the globe will find this book a valuable and thought-provoking contribution to the sustainability literature. It is also suited to academics and students in postgraduate-level courses in social sciences and sustainability, or in courses in applied sociology, applied social psychology and other applied social sciences. |
