Book Description
First contact may be our last. On a dark world far from our home, an epic war started a chain reaction, sending two alien races on a collision course with Earth. Secret battles wage on our soil, brewing a war that could change the face of humanity forever. If we can't prevent an alien armageddon, we'll find ourselves fighting forces with technology thousands of years more advanced than ours. The war is on, and time is running out. . . A new twist on alien first contact told in three parts, originally released in three novels. COLLISION Sienna Wolfe's life changes when a strange craft crashes near her cabin, and she finds herself in the middle of a bitter battle between two warring alien races, the likes of which could wipe out mankind. As she races to align her new allies with the U.S. military, she may soon learn that her new friends may not be as noble as they seem. Can Sienna prevent an interstellar war from claiming Earth, or will she become the harbinger of an alien apocalypse? IMPLOSION As Sephian forces peck at the Draeken defenses, we soon learn that things are never as simple as right and wrong. Draeken Commander Roden Zyll has spilled plenty of blood in his time, and he cares little for humans. But when he realizes his leader’s plan could lead to his people’s extinction, he plans a coup. Only one problem: he has to work with the Sephians to succeed. If he fails, every Earth nation will be yanked into a war that no one has a chance of winning. EXPLOSION When a deadly virus is released across the planet, all aliens are quickly blamed. When a mass execution is planned, Captain Jax Jerrick becomes a traitor to the military in order to save the Sephians and the Draeken. After bloody battle, he escapes and joins the resistance committed to holding off the world's military forces while searching for an antivirus. With enemies coming at them from everywhere, can the resistance stop the war before humanity becomes extinct?

Book Description
Based on the author's popular course at UCLA, this unique text is the first to introduce the non-science major to a basic understanding of how the physical environment surrounding us functions, and why human activities are affecting it, while simultaneously providing sufficient supportingdetails to hold the interest of science majors. Written for undergraduates, it details the fundamental scientific concepts underlying the nature and scope of atmospheric environmental problems. Key air pollution issues are expertly addressed in terms of their local, regional, and globalimplications. In his survey of local and regional issues, the author identifies the sources and effects of major pollutants and discusses the many ways people are exposed to environmental toxins. Global environmental issues such as stratospheric ozone depletion, global climate change, and greenhousewarming are treated as well, along with the potential for "global environmental engineering." The text provides a wealth of illustrative examples and problems that test students' comprehension of the material and challenge their creative and deductive approaches to all environmental problems. Anappendix provides a helpful primer to the basic mathematics used throughout the book. Enjoyable, stimulating, and comprehensive, this text is an ideal introduction to environmental sciences for students in the earth and atmospheric sciences, geography, engineering, environmental management and law,and life sciences.

Book Description
Mexico Under Seige is a readable and well-informed political history covering the period from the ruling PRI's lurch to the right in 1940 through to its eventual expulsion from office in the elections of 2000. Based on two decades of interview material and new documentary sources, this book is the first to consider the full panorama of popular resistance to the alliance between the Mexican state bureaucracy, the president and the business class. This resistance embraced emerging urban labour protest, new peasant movements, revolutionary strikes on the railways and in schools, student opposition, and the re-emergence of guerrilla struggle culminating in the celebrated indigenous peoples' resistance in Chiapas. Mexico Under Siege analyses the core parties of the resistance, including the suprisingly central role of the Mexican Communist Party, and explains why resistance achieved no more than ending the PRI's system of presidential despotism. Hodge and Gandy conclude with some provocative ideas about who now constitutes the common people's primary opponent and examine the prospects for genuine struggle in an electoral arena where neo-liberal economic ideology and the Mexican economy's closer integration with the United States dominate the political scene.
