简介：　　It is now nine weeks since 69-year-old Dr Duncan Purcell has vanished. His embittered first wife, Fiona, is just as sure he is still alive as his second wife, a former stripper 40 years his junior, is sure he is dead. Fiona hires private investigator Kinsey Malone to find out the truth. 　　 　　In her latest adventure, Kinsey Millhone enters the world of noir. A shadowland in which the mysterious disappearance of a prominent physician leads Kinsey into a danger-filled maze of duplicity and double-dealing...It is now nine weeks since Dr Dowan Purcell vanished without trace. The sixtynine-year-old doctor had said goodnight to his colleagues at the Pacific Meadows nursing home, had climbed into his car and driven away - never to be seen again. His embittered first wife Fiona is convinced he is still alive. His second wife, Crystal - a former stripper forty years his junior - is just as sure he is dead. Enter private investigator Kinsey Malone, hired by Fiona to find out just what has happened to the man they loved. Enter also Tommy Hevener, an attractive flame-haired twenty-something who has set his romantic sights on Kinsey. And Tommy is a man with a very interesting past... 　　 　　 　　Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone is worldly wise and street smart and rather too caring for her own good; her principal problem in P is for Peril comes from the fact that she is caught up in two cases at once. On the one hand, she is investigating a missing doctor whose wife and ex-wife both suspect the other of foul play; on the other, she is trying to find a new office and gets new young landlords, one of whom is somewhat over-friendly. A sensible person might never let herself be polite to the aggressively charming Tommy, listen to the insurance claims investigator who accuses him of parricide or take an interest in the wellbeing of a disturbed adolescent girl marginal to either case. It is this fallible capacity to care more than is sensible that makes Kinsey so attractive a heroine--and also, as it happens, so effective. She is a good investigator because she is a good listener--much of her job consists of filtering out the information that is important from the ambient noise of people's chatter. As always, Sue Grafton has a good ear for the different speech patterns of various sorts of Californians and for the wrong notes that eventually tell us and Kinsey precisely who can be trusted and who is telling colossal lies; she also occasionally allows the reader to be a little bit quicker on the uptake than her detective. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　--Roz Kaveney 　　 　　 　　length: (cm)17.8 　　　 　　　　　 　　　　　 width:(cm)11.1　　

Minimal access surgical anatomy

作者：  Carol E. H. Scott-Conner，Alfred Cuschieri，Fiona J. Carter编著;傅强，李忠廉主译

出版社：天津科技翻译出版公司,2007

简介：　　当今医学技术迅猛发展，主要集中在微创、移植、基因、介入等四个领域。以最小的创伤达到治愈疾病的目的是外科领域发展的必然趋向，腹腔镜手术便是这一全新技术的主要代表。腹腔镜手术具有创伤小、痛苦小、恢复快、住院时间短、节省医疗开支、腹部美容及腹腔内粘连少等优点。目前腹腔镜不但应用于多种普通外科疾病，而且也成功地用于妇产科疾病的盆腔手术，在全国范围内大中型综合医院都已经普遍开展使用这项技术。鉴于腹腔镜手术开展的时间不长，虽技术不断完善，经验不断积累，但一直缺乏指导临床初学者的基础教科书，这在一定程度上也妨碍了微创手术的普及，故出版一本较为权威的指导性读物势在必行。 　　由Carol教授等编著的这本《微创外科解剖学》便是顺应这一医学发展需求而精心编辑出版的。它是腹腔镜外科学的入门性读物，全书按腹部解剖结构分成11个章节。在每一章里又分别从基本的外科暴露处理原则、形态解剖和特殊的外科操作方法等几个方面详细阐述其特殊解剖结构和有关操作的注意事项，文中关键之处总是配以大量的图片加以详细阐述。每一章后面的彩色照片都是从作者们的腔镜录相带中精心挑选出来的，同时配以手绘图进一步明确解剖结构并都用标记线划出来，显示其特殊解剖特点。全书共220幅精美彩色图片供读者赏析，这些图片使各章节中的文字描述更加具体生动。 　　《微创外科解剖学》是微创外科医师为临床医生而写的，目的是作为解剖教材和腹腔镜外科技术之间联系的桥梁。内容目录能引导读者找到特殊的某个外科操作相应的解剖。每一章之后列出的参考书目提供了与本章有关的另外一些技术和关于解剖更为详尽的细节。这样使读者能更全面地了解腹腔镜外科解剖的技术性知识。 　　“成功的外科手术开始于解剖实验室。没有正确的相关外科解剖知识，实践外科将一次又一次地陷入困境。”因此，这本书无疑是腹腔镜外科的基础。它不但是一本解剖教科书，也是一本外科操作手册。希望所有外科医师、住院医师、实习生和会诊医师都能从中获得帮助。

简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 Asian American women have long dealt with charges of betrayal within and beyond their communities. Images of their "disloyalty" pervade American culture, from the daughter who is branded a traitor to family for adopting American ways, to the war bride who immigrates in defiance of her countrymen, to a figure such as Yoko Ono, accused of breaking up the Beatles with her "seduction" of John Lennon. Leslie Bow here explores how representations of females transgressing the social order play out in literature by Asian American women. Questions of ethnic belonging, sexuality, identification, and political allegiance are among the issues raised by such writers as Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston, Bharati Mukherjee, Jade Snow Wong, Amy Tan, Sky Lee, Le Ly Hayslip, Wendy Law-Yone, Fiona Cheong, and Nellie Wong. Beginning with the notion that feminist and Asian American identity are mutually exclusive, Bow analyzes how women serve as boundary markers between ethnic or national collectives in order to reveal the male-based nature of social cohesion.In exploring the relationship between femininity and citizenship, liberal feminism and American racial discourse, and women's domestic abuse and human rights, the author suggests that Asian American women not only mediate sexuality's construction as a determiner of loyalty but also manipulate that construction as a tool of political persuasion in their writing. The language of betrayal, she argues, offers a potent rhetorical means of signaling how belonging is policed by individuals and by the state. Bow's bold analysis exposes the stakes behind maintaining ethnic, feminist, and national alliances, particularly for women who claim multiple loyalties.

简介：An unjustly imprisoned convict seeks a strange and startling revenge ... a teenager becomes both the puppet and the puppet master of evil ... four rambunctious young boys plunge through the facade of a small town and come face-to-face with life, death, and intimations of their own mortality ... a disgraced woman is determined to triumph over dea...   more 籺h. These are your guides to the ultimate in fascination as Stephen King shows the horror that lurks within us all. Amazon.com Review Different Seasons (1982) is a collection of four novellas, markedly different in tone and subject, each on the theme of a journey. The first is a rich, satisfying, nonhorrific tale about an innocent man who carefully nurtures hope and devises a wily scheme to escape from prison. The second concerns a boy who discards his innocence by enticing an old man to travel with him into a reawakening of long-buried evil. In the third story, a writer looks back on the trek he took with three friends on the brink of adolescence to find another boy's corpse. The trip becomes a character-rich rite of passage from youth to maturity. These first three novellas have been made into well-received movies: "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption" into Frank Darabont's 1994 The Shawshank Redemption (available as a screenplay, a DVD film, and an audiocassette), "Apt Pupil" into Bryan Singer's 1998 film Apt Pupil (also released in 1998 on audiocassette), and "The Body" into Rob Reiner's Stand by Me (1986). The final novella, "Breathing Lessons," is a horror yarn told by a doctor, about a patient whose indomitable spirit keeps her baby alive under extraordinary circumstances. It's the tightest, most polished tale in the collection. --Fiona Webster   ?less

出版社：巨流图书股份有限公司,2010

简介：　　不論在政府或機構，性別主流化是國際上共同認可的策略。在教育領域上，達卡二千年國際教育論壇提出了在2005年以前，消除小學及中學教育上的性別不均等；以及在2015年之前達到教育上的性別平等(gender equality)，特別要確保女孩完整及公平受基礎教育的機會，以及確保其成績表現在某一水準之上等重要目標，而本書正可為教育上的性別主流化(gender mainstreaming)作出相當貢獻，因為它提供了對現今情勢進行具性別敏感(gender-sensitive)分析時的可用工具，因此也可使一些行動計劃的涉入(intervention)過程更具性別敏感性。 　　本書內容包含性別分析的工具、方法論的討論，以及說明這些工具、方法如何在實務上被使用的案例，是一本適合不同教育崗位上的人（包括政策制定或計劃者、教師、師資培育者、學術界、研究人員、學生、相關機構工作人員及政策執行者）閱讀的書。

简介：Now in its fourth edition, "Goode: Commercial Law" is still the first port of call for the modern day practitioner with its theoretical and practical coverage of commercial law in both a national and an international context. Brought completely up-to-date by Professor Ewan McKendrick this highly acclaimed and authoritative text, which is regularly cited by all courts from the House of Lords (now the Supreme Court) downwards combines a deep theoretical analysis with a practical approach which examines the theory in the context of typical commercial and financial agreements, both domestic and international. The work is replete with diagrams and specimen forms covering a wide range of transactions. Key changes to this edition include: coverage of the relevant legislation and case law since the publication of the third edition; discussion of the current version of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (UCP 600); consideration of the implications of the House of Lords decision in Spectrum Plus for charges over book debts in particular and floating charges in general; Treatment of the Rome I Regulation as to the law applicable to contractual obligations; developments in arbitration law, in particular decision of House of Lords in Fiona Trust; and, updates to the law of contract and sale of goods, including decisions of the House of Lords on interpretation of contracts, remoteness of damage and rights of rejection.

简介： Students new to the work of William Morris will find the full range of his achievements covered in this reissue of Peter Faulkner's excellent biography, first published in 1980. The author has carefully placed Morris in the context of the Victorian age, but has also suggested the relevance of his ideas today. The six chapters are organised biographically and cover all aspects of Morris’s work in poetry, fiction, design and socialist politics. The emphasis is on his continuous struggle against the age in which he lived, seen as an idealism which went through various stages from the wistfulness of The Earthly Paradisethrough the practical activities of the firm of Morris & Company to the socialism of Morris's later years. The book quotes freely from writings by Morris which are not easily accessible and gives an overall account from which the student can develop his specialist interests. This reissue will appeal to sixth-formers and undergraduates interested in the Victorian period, as seen through one of its most striking personalities. When this book appeared in 1980, Morris’s reputation had risen again after the low estimates of the interwar period. This was due both to the reappraisal of his politics and to the expanding popularity of his designs. Against the Age offers a clear account of Morris’s career for those developing an interest in his numerous achievements. It covers the whole range of Morris’s work, and argues for his significance as a writer of both poetry and prose. Since 1980 our knowledge of Morris has been enriched by the publication of Norman Kelvin’s edition of his Collected Letters, by the late Nicholas Salmond’s editions of his contributions to the socialist journals, by Fiona MacCarthy’s biography of 1984, and by the increasing recognition of Morris as a pioneer of environmentalism. However, the book retains its value for its wide coverage and its balanced attitude to Morris’s achievements, and for its encouragement to readers to consider the issues that make Morris of continuing importance today.　　　 ?
