| klaus torrent: A Grift Too Far (A Rex Nihilo Adventure) Robert Kroese, 2024-12-21 Join the galaxy's most notorious con man, Rex Nihilo, and his ever-loyal, ever-exasperated robot sidekick, Sasha, in their craziest adventure yet! Marooned on a planet whose inhabitants have modeled their civilization on World War II movies, Rex and Sasha have only one hope of escape: unearth a secret cache of weapons that's been hidden somewhere on the planet. To find the weapons, they must spearhead an assault on an impregnable mountain fortress, blow up a strategically vital bridge, and bake an impressive number of cream puffs. The war is make-believe, but Rex and Sasha's predicament is all-too-real, and to get off Yurp the duo find that they have no choice but to beat the Yurpians at their own game. With Rex's cunning schemes and Sasha's dry wit, they're prepared to turn the tide of history—over and over again. Packed with the trademark humor and relentless fun of the Rex Nihilo series, A GRIFT TOO FAR is a side-splitting journey through the absurdities of war and the ingenuity of a con artist. Can Rex and Sasha pull off the ultimate grift and escape Yurp? Or will they become permanent fixtures in the planet's never-ending wartime farce? Praise for Starship Grifters My favorite read this year. A hilarious space adventure. Hard book to put down. ―Hugh Howey, author of Wool Starship Grifters... is not just the funniest SF novel I've read in decades, it may be the funniest I've read ever.... Funnier than Harry Harrison's Bill the Galactic Hero series, and [it] may even match Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker series. - Travis Corcoran, Prometheus Award-winning author of The Powers of the Earth Starship Grifters is one of the funniest things I’ve ever experienced. It is certainly the funniest book I’ve read. ―N.R. LaPoint, author of Chalk Laugh-out loud funny. I loved every page of it. If you like sci-fi and laughter, this is the book for you! ―Rob Blackwell, author of The Forest of Forever This is a funny, funny book. It is loveably absurd and ridiculously extravagant. ―Benjamin Espen Damn, I laughed.... This novel is funny, and should be approached only by those looking for a damn good reason to laugh. ―John Daulton Funny SF is tricky. Funny SF that holds up over an entire novel is a rarity. The writing in this book is sharp, tight, and clever. I laughed out loud enough to lose track of tally or occurrence. In a word, this novel is SMART. ―SFFAudio.com It’s kind of like Foucault’s Pendulum in space but without 500 pages of Italians discussing European history. ―Castalia House Kroese is the premier writer of humorous genre fiction in the indie sphere. ―J.

| klaus torrent: Larcenists and Lambs Markéta Šichtařová, Vladimír Pikora, 2017-10-24 A thriller from the realms of high finance, based on events that are all-too-true… Immediately after publication in the Czech Republic, the book became a bestseller. In 2015 it won the Reader’s Award for Best Book in the prestigious Czech literary competition, the Magnesia Litera. What at first glance appears to be a run-of-the-mill madcap adventure story very quickly becomes a fundamental statement about the state of today’s financial world. What first appears to be a simple situation comedy unexpectedly turns into a sarcastic and visionary description of the world of finance and politics. The dry, situation-based humor gradually escalates into looming tension which culminates in an unexpected psychological revelation and a highly pertinent warning for all of society. The authors, leading Czech economists and authors of several bestsellers, have an insiders’ knowledge of the environment they describe. Each of the characters and events has a real role model in the real world, which the authors have altered to fit the needs of the plot. The most fantastic aspect of this book is that many of the warnings it gives, which seemed impossible when it was first published (for example the possible disintegration of the EU), have since come true! And many that still could, remain… In the book, an idiosyncratic couple is shocked to discover that under the surface of today’s society everything is different from what it seems at first glance. They find out more about how rotten the system is than even they themselves want to know –or than “others” want them to know. But who are these “others,” and why do they want to liquidate them? And can the approaching financial apocalypse and collapse of the entire financial system be averted? This book will change the way you see the people around you. And the notion that we all live in a Matrix will cease to seem impossible. |

| klaus torrent: The Technical Avalanche Protection Handbook Florian Rudolf-Miklau, Siegfried Sauermoser, Arthur Mears, 2014-11-21 Snow avalanches can have highly destructive consequences in developed areas. Each year, avalanche catastrophes occur in mountain regions around the globe and cause unnecessary fatalities and severe damage to buildings and infrastructure. In some mountainous regions, especially in the European Alps, technical avalanche defence structures are built to increase the level of safety for inhabited areas; however, new infrastructure such as roads, railway lines and tourist facilities cause new risk potential in hazardous areas. As a result, the demand is increasing for technical avalanche protection solutions. Avalanche defence structures and protection systems are used in most inhabited mountain regions worldwide. During the last decades, technical avalanche protection has evolved from a specialist field to an independent engineering branch that has gained importance in alpine countries such as Austria, Italy, France and Switzerland, as well as in other countries such as Canada, Iceland, Norway and USA. This work is the first comprehensive, English-language overview of technical avalanche protection and establishes state-of-the-art best practices in the field. It covers the fundamentals of avalanche protection technology and includes plans, dimensions, construction and maintenance of defence structures. The editors have collaborated with an international team of experts from Austria, Canada, France, Iceland, Italy, Japan, Norway, Switzerland and USA to produce this landmark handbook. |

| klaus torrent: Bipolar Disorder Ives Cavalcante Passos, Michael Berk, Flavio Kapczinski, 2025-05-20 Bipolar disorder is a complex disease and requires specialized care for its assessment and effective treatment. It has a worldwide prevalence of about 2% and is among the top 10 leading causes of disability adjusted life years in young adults. Additionally, people with bipolar disorder die around 10 years earlier, and the lifetime risk of suicide is estimated to be at least 20 times that of the general population. Although these findings illustrate the severity and complexity of this illness, we are living exciting times in the field of bipolar disorder for several reasons. Over the last 20 years, novel and evidence based pharmacological and psychosocial strategies have been added to the treatment of bipolar disorder. Several studies addressed the natural history of the disease and showed that the course of bipolar disorder is heterogeneous but, on average, the risk of recurrence increases with the number of previous episodes. Neuroscience has shed light on the molecular underpinnings of the potential decline in cognition and physical health that takes place in some people with bipolar disorder. Some studies added weight to the theory that immune activation is a key component in driving the changes that take place in the brain and its periphery. Lastly, new technologies and lifestyle approaches are gaining tracking in the field of bipolar disorder. Smartphone apps and sensors have promise to provide the means to digital interventions. Moreover, machine learning algorithms and big data have the potential to pave the way to predictive psychiatry, an exciting new field, where the use of large data sets may allow us to predict responses and clinical outcomes, such as suicide attempts. The book is intended for psychiatrists, psychologists, and other mental health professionals. Written by experts, the 41 chapters are divided in six sections to discuss: The natural history of bipolar disorder; Biological underpinnings; Pharmacological treatment; Psychosocial interventions; Special populations; and New approaches to diagnosis and intervention. It will also discuss the use of antipsychotics and lithium as disease modifying agents, and clinical progression and neuroprogression concepts. Bipolar Disorder - An Evidence-Based Clinical Guide will arm clinicians and researchers with the latest findings, as well as refine the necessary skills to provide the best clinical care. |

| klaus torrent: The Menagerie Clare Roberts, 2022-02-28 The Menagerie is a book based on different stories. These stories cover many periods of our history, from a seventeenth century violin maker in Italy to a petty thief out of his league in modern times. They are human stories about people caught at critical moments in their lives; a Swedish estate agent at the turn of the century, a young wife running away with a German prisoner at the end of the war, a farmer having an affair with his help in the fifties, a Bosnian Croat soldier on Millenium Eve, a young girl from a high rise staying at the sea side while her mother has treatment for cancer, a postman over run by abandoned animals to a hospital porter adopting a corpse, each has a story to tell. The secret of this book is the description of people, gestures, actions, things. Their being is so defined it immerses the reader in the stories, letting him personify the characters himself. They give a vivid picture of human life. Clare L. Roberts lives in South West France. She was born in Manchester and has lived in different parts of England and the world. She studied Art, Drama and Education at Cheshire College, got a First-Class Honour’s Degree in English Literature at the University of Western Australia with an extra year studying Ancient History, Psychology and French. She returned to England to study Shakespeare and His Contemporaries, as a postgraduate at the University of Oxford. She taught at Chipping Norton Comprehensive School then Taunton Public School and finally at a boys Grammar School in Gloucester. She helped to set up a trout farm near Cheltenham and got the M. A. in Writing from Warwick University. She has written novels, plays films and short stories. Her novel Betrayal is in bookshops and online now. She is currently writing the stories of Shakespeare’s plays with personal introductions. |
| klaus torrent: Neuroblastoma Shahab Asgharzadeh, Frank Westermann, 2024-05-21 This book provides a state-of-the-art review of the biology, treatment, and other critical aspects of neuroblastoma, reflecting the dramatic advances that have been achieved in understanding and management. Topics are arranged according to the book’s dominant themes of the “seed” (tumor genomics, epigenetics, metabolism, and stem cells) and the “soil” (tumor microenvironment, adaptive and innate immunity, and exosomes) and how both of these influences can serve as rich targets for intervention, whether by targeted molecular therapy or immunotherapy. Therapeutic strategies that are currently in use or under consideration for the future are discussed in detail, with the focus on precision medicine. Further individual chapters are devoted to the biology and genetics of relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma and emerging methods of evaluating tumor burden. Finally, in keeping with the, albeit modest, increase in cure rates in high-risk disease, immune and cellular therapies are reviewed. This coverage of what is becoming a not-so-enigmatic tumor will appeal to a broad readership including both experimental oncologists and clinicians who care for patients with neuroblastoma. |

| klaus torrent: Metaphors of ANGER across Languages: Universality and Variation Zoltan Kövecses, Réka Benczes, Veronika Szelid, 2024-11-04 Anger is one of the basic emotions of human emotional experience, informing and guiding many of our choices and actions. Although it has received considerable scholarly attention in a number of disciplines, including linguistics, a basic question has still remained unresolved: why do variations in the folk model of anger exist across languages if it is indeed a basic emotion rooted in largely universal bodily experience? By drawing on a wide selection of comparable linguistic data from dozens of languages (including a number of less-researched languages), this volume provides the most comprehensive account of what is universal and what is variable in the folk model of anger – and why. It also investigates the role that metonymies might play in the emergence of anger-related metaphors and in what ways context influences or shapes anger metaphors and thereby the resulting folk model of anger. No such volume exists in the (cognitive) linguistic literature on anger – or on emotions for that matter. The book is thus an essential contribution to the study of anger and will serve as basic reading for any researcher interested in how the conceptualization of anger is constructed via the interplay of bodily experience, language and the larger cultural context. |

| klaus torrent: The Red and the Black Robert Miklitsch, 2016-12-07 Critical wisdom has it that we said a long goodbye to film noir in the 1950s. Robert Miklitsch begs to differ. Pursuing leads down the back streets and alleyways of cultural history, The Red and the Black proposes that the received rise-and-fall narrative about the genre radically undervalues the formal and thematic complexity of '50s noir and the dynamic segue it effected between the spectacular expressionism of '40s noir and early, modernist neo-noir. Mixing scholarship with a fan's devotion to the crooked roads of critique, Miklitsch autopsies marquee films like D.O.A., Niagara, and Kiss Me Deadly plus a number of lesser-known classics. Throughout, he addresses the social and technological factors that dealt deuce after deuce to the genre--its celebrated style threatened by new media and technologies such as TV and 3-D, color and widescreen, its born losers replaced like zombies by All-American heroes, the nation rocked by the red menace and nightmares of nuclear annihilation. But against all odds, the author argues, inventive filmmakers continued to make formally daring and socially compelling pictures that remain surprisingly, startlingly alive. Cutting-edge and entertaining, The Red and the Black reconsiders a lost period in the history of American movies. |
| klaus torrent: Cultures of Control Miriam R. Levin, 2005-06-27 This collection of essays explores the history of control by looking at a variety of cultural forms, practices, and beliefs. These ideas are examined critically, not only in the light of the possibilities which control technologies seem to offer for resolving human problems, but also the contradictory moral, political, and economic consequences they have had. The discussion takes into account the important modes in which humans have cast their organizational efforts: political, social, sychological, economic, and legal. It also takes a longue durée view of the history of control, looking back to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and establishes the continuities in the twentieth century as a transatlantic phenomenon. |

| klaus torrent: Modernist Mysteries: Persephone Tamara Levitz, 2012-08-15 Modernist Mysteries: Perséphone is a landmark study that will move the field of musicology in important new directions. The book presents a microhistorical analysis of the premiere of the melodrama Perséphone at the Paris Opera on April 30th, 1934, engaging with the collaborative, transnational nature of the production. Author Tamara Levitz demonstrates how these collaborators-- Igor Stravinsky, André Gide, Jacques Copeau, and Ida Rubinstein, among others-used the myth of Persephone to perform and articulate their most deeply held beliefs about four topics significant to modernism: religion, sexuality, death, and historical memory in art. In investigating the aesthetic and political consequences of the artists' diverging perspectives, and the fall-out of their titanic clash on the theater stage, Levitz dismantles myths about neoclassicism as a musical style. The result is a revisionary account of modernism in music in the 1930s. As a result of its focus on the collaborative performance, this book differs from traditional accounts of musical modernism and neoclassicism in several ways. First and foremost, it centers on the performance of modernism, highlighting the theatrical, performative, and sensual. Levitz places Christianity in the center of the discussion, and questions the national distinctions common in modernist research by involving a transnational team of collaborators. She further breaks new ground in shifting the focus from history to memory by emphasizing the commemorative nature of neoclassic listening rituals over the historicist stylization of its scores, and contends that modernists captured on stage and in philosophical argument their simultaneous need and inability to mourn the past. The book as a whole counters the common criticism that neoclassicism was a reactionary musical style by suggesting a more pluralistic, ambivalent, and sometimes even progressive politics, and reconnects musical neoclassicism with a queer classicist tradition extending from Winckelmann through Walter Pater to Gide. Modernist Mysteries concludes that 1930s modernists understood neoclassicism not as formalist compositional approaches but rather as a vitalist art haunted by ghosts of the past and promissory visions of the future. |
