BEATRIX POTTER, move over. Here is a children's book to delight everyone-the continuing saga of The Bunnies, told by someone young enough to know it, old enough to spoof it.

It's the story of everyday life in Furrific Town, with voice-over by the author. It's an imaginative story-book filled with wit and humor that will delight the parents as well as the children. So, as Baby Bunny would say, "Yo! Yo! Yohoho!" And so we begin: "There are many towns inhabited by only bunnies. And bunnies only. But we're not talking about all the towns. We're just zooming in on one little house in one little town called Furrific Town. And the family of bunnies in the little house that we're talking about is no ordinary family."

Philosophy and Engineering: An Emerging Agenda
Author: Ibo van de Poel
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9048128048
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
Whereas science, technology, and medicine have all called forth dedicated philosophical investigations, a fourth major contributor to the technoscientific world in which we all live - that is, engineering - has been accorded almost none of the philosophical attention it deserves. This volume thus offers a first characterisation of this important new field, by some of the primary philosophers and ethicists interested in engineering and leading engineers interested in philosophical reflections. The volume deals with such questions as: What is engineering? In what respect does engineering differ from science? What ethical problems does engineering raise? By what ethical principles are engineers guided? How do engineers themselves conceive of their profession? What do they see as the main philosophical challenges confronting them in the 21st century? The authors respond to these and other questions from philosophical and engineering view points and so illustrate how together they can meet the challenges and realize the opportunities present in the necessary encounters between philosophy and engineering - encounters that are ever more important in an increasingly engineered world and its problematic futures.

The authors of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Nanny Diaries take “an unflinching look at the price of fame” (Booklist) in this story of a young woman trying to escape her ambitious family.

Then one day Logan woke up and Kelsey and her parents were gone. Years later, Kelsey has been propelled by her relentless parents to mega-stardom, her voice a radio fixture and her face on billboards worldwide. Meanwhile, Logan is trying to carve out her own life in New York City despite the constant reminders of her cousin’s absence. Though she has long since stopped trying to solve the mystery of their last hours together, the inexplicably fractured memories haunt her. Then on Logan’s twenty-seventh birthday, she gets the call that she’s been longing for—and dreading. Before she can second-guess herself, she’s on a plane to L.A. to reunite with Kelsey and the parents who ripped them apart, but Logan will soon learn that some family secrets are kept hidden for a reason.
